Chapter 1327 The More Anxious I Am, the Calmer I Am (for the leader "Pipi Xiao's Zoo")
"I think it's better to think about this matter again."
The more anxious Saint Laurent I was, the calmer Zhou Xu became.
It's like he now holds a patented technology that everyone wants, and he's not afraid of no one wanting to cooperate with him.
Even if he really gets the ball rolling, all the major forces might even hold an auction to cooperate with him.
Saint Laurent I was undoubtedly aware of this problem, and he did not want to make things turn out that way.
Thinking of this, Saint Laurent I gritted his teeth and pulled Zhou Xu back.
"Your Majesty, there is nothing to consider. Among all the forces, I dare say that our Saint Laurent Empire has the most sophisticated equipment and the richest resource reserves."
I have to say that what Saint Laurent I said hit the nail on the head. Putting aside the number of sophisticated equipment, resource reserves are very important.
This sophisticated equipment definitely has higher requirements for casting materials, which cannot be compared with the excellent equipment. If we cooperate with other forces, even if the research is successful, the other party may not be able to come up with enough special materials of sufficient quality for mass production.
Let’s look at the Saint Laurent Empire.
Although Zhou Xu didn't know what they had at this stage, the Saint Laurent Empire was wealthy and powerful, and owned the largest land and the most resources in this land. This was now a consensus within the coalition.
From this point of view, cooperating with the Saint Laurent Empire can save a lot of trouble.
Of course, even though he knew it, Zhou Xu would not give in so easily.
When it comes to business, you have to fight for your own interests.
"Then let's put it this way. In this cooperation, on behalf of the Saint Laurent Empire, I can provide you with two, no! Three! I can provide you with three pieces of excellent equipment at once for your research."
"Besides that, if this cooperation goes well, I can make the decision later and take out an epic equipment for research!"
Although the epic equipment seemed like an empty promise, Zhou Xu had to admit that it was indeed an attractive condition.
However, before he could open his mouth, Saint Laurent I changed the subject...
"But there is a condition. In this area of research, you can only cooperate with our Saint Laurent Empire and cannot cooperate with other forces."
"impossible."
Zhou Xu refused without even thinking about it.
What Saint Laurent I meant by this statement obviously refers not only to the forces in this coalition, but also to any forces that may appear later.
Zhou Xu's business, in essence, is to use other countries' resources for research. Although he will share half of the profits with other countries after achieving results and starting mass production, in this kind of situation, the more forces cooperating, the more money he will make.
The Saint Laurent Empire is indeed wealthy, but it is impossible for the other party to use all of its resources to support research and production.
Under this premise, as long as there are enough forces cooperating with their Great Zhou, the actual total benefits in the future can completely exceed the cooperation with the Saint Laurent Empire.
Zhou Xu, who knew this clearly, how could he give up the entire forest for the sake of the Saint Laurent Empire? Saint Laurent I was obviously not as smart as Zhou Xu in terms of business acumen.
In his opinion, even if all the forces in the coalition army except the Great Zhou were added together, they could not compare with their Saint Laurent Empire. There was no reason for the other party to refuse this condition! However, Zhou Xu refused straightforwardly, which made everyone in Saint Laurent stunned.
"We have epic equipment!"
Zhou Xu looked calm.
"Gungnir from the female warrior clan should be higher in rank, not lower."
"That is the heirloom of the female warrior clan. They can't possibly..."
Saint Laurent I stopped talking halfway, as if realizing something.
Epic equipment, in the hands of any faction, can be regarded as a treasure of inheritance. The female warrior tribe can't take it out, can they? What he said before was just a pie in the sky, he knew it in his heart.
Zhou Xu's words were telling him, "I know what's going on!"
Some things become awkward when you talk about them openly.
After a brief stiff expression, Saint Laurent I quickly calmed down and coughed twice.
"That's fine. Let's settle this first. We'll both pick a time and have someone draft the specific agreement."
"Can."
Things have come to this point. Even if there will definitely be some wrangling between the two sides when drafting the agreement later, at least at this point in time, Zhou Xu agreed very readily and at the same time grasped Saint Laurent I's hand.
"Then I wish us a happy cooperation!"
After saying that, Zhou Xu left the courtyard of Saint Laurent I.
On the way back, we still took the carriage arranged by the Saint Laurent Empire.
Leaning in the carriage, Zhou Xu felt somewhat relieved at the moment.
[Thank goodness I was able to break through the Out-of-Body Realm in time, otherwise I wouldn't even be qualified to negotiate with Saint Laurent I who was in the Vertical and Horizontal Realm.]
Regarding his own training efficiency, Zhou Xu certainly knew that he had a good talent, very clear! His five-star level panel was there, could it be a lie? But his situation obviously could not be simply summarized by the four words "very talented".
I cultivated myself from an ordinary magician to the extraordinary realm, and then from the extraordinary realm to the holy realm. This whole process can even be described with the four words "a natural outcome".
Even to break through to the out-of-body state, it did take him a little longer, but during this process, his overall state was nothing more than keeping a calm mind and doing what he had to do.
Therefore, after breaking through the out-of-body state, Zhou Xu himself actually thought about this problem.
Then he soon discovered that his situation was definitely not as simple as simply having good talent.
He didn't have any conclusive evidence at the moment, but if he thought about it carefully, he could still find clues from some details.
Take 'inherited wisdom' for example.
The 'inherited wisdom' requires one to reach the holy realm before one can trigger the restriction, enter the secret room, and successfully obtain it.
This "inherited wisdom" contained a lot of skills and experience after becoming a Saintly Mage, as well as a whole section of detailed teaching on "programming", but it did not teach him how to break through the Saintly Realm and reach the Out-of-Body Realm! Was this a mistake?
Or is it that the capacity of the "inherited wisdom" is insufficient and cannot accommodate more information?
Zhou Xu actually considered the issue of "capacity", but then he changed his mind and thought, even if the capacity is not enough, there is no point in not mentioning it, right?
This forced Zhou Xu to come up with a bold idea.
That was the attitude he had before, when he believed that he was 100% capable of cultivating to the out-of-body state, and that there would be no difficulty in between.
He almost said, "Do you need someone to teach you this? Just think about it yourself. Don't you understand it?"
