Chapter 532 Asking for an exorbitant price, bargaining on the spot
For Su Chen, the best way to solve the problem once and for all was to wipe out the Iron Legion and eliminate them completely!
But Luo Xiaotian's intervention made Su Chen somewhat hesitant.
He wasn't really sure how strong the province was.
Before understanding the strength of the province, Su Chen decided it was best not to rashly turn against them!
After all, Luo Xiaotian knew the location of the micro-base and could send troops to attack the Fierce Tiger Gang at any time.
Of course.
Su Chen could abandon the Fierce Tiger Gang and the Micro Base, drive away in his Normadison with his women, and leave in style.
But he still doesn't plan to do it unless absolutely necessary.
Moreover, Luo Xiaotian offered many benefits, which greatly tempted Su Chen!
For example, his ability to break utility poles from a distance!
After thinking for a while, Su Chen revealed a bright smile.
"Of course I'm willing to cooperate with the officer!"
"But...I hope General Zhao can compensate me for my emotional distress!"
Zhao Yang almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
You fucking sent people to attack my base and destroyed it, and I still have to compensate you for your emotional distress?
"This should be fine, right?"
Luo Xiaotian smiled slightly and looked at Zhao Yang.
"No...no problem!"
Zhao Yang gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words.
"That's good!"
Luo Xiaotian clapped his hands and addressed both sides loudly,
"Alright, everyone can stop now and call it a day!"
The members of the Fierce Tiger Gang and the Iron Legion looked at each other in bewilderment.
Just minutes ago, they were bitter enemies fighting each other.
In the blink of an eye, they laid down their weapons and shook hands to make peace.
Life changes so fast!
However, not having to work so hard is a good thing for everyone!
If possible, everyone wants to survive, not fight!
As the ceasefire order was passed on, both sides put away their weapons.
Led by Xu Wenyue, Ren Kang, and others, the members of the Fierce Tiger Gang withdrew from the Steel Legion's base.
The soldiers of the Steel Legion began cleaning up the battlefield.
Su Chen, Luo Xiaotian, Zhao Yang, and others arrived at the conference room together.
"Boss Su, tell me your terms."
Luo Xiaotian sat in the main seat and spoke softly.
Su Chen didn't hold back and directly stated his conditions.
He demanded that Zhao Yang compensate the Fierce Tiger Gang for all kinds of living and combat supplies.
In addition, they also demanded compensation for various energy crystals and energy cores, and even Zhao Yang's trident!
By the end, Zhao Yang's face had turned green!
Su Chen, you bastard, you're asking for way too much!
Even if Empress Dowager Cixi were here, she wouldn't dare sign such a humiliating treaty that would cede sovereignty to the nation!
If they actually sign, the Iron Legion simply won't be able to survive!
"Commander Luo, this...this is really...I can't agree to this!"
Zhao Yang looked at Luo Xiaotian with a bitter expression.
Although he didn't know the specifics of the Steel Legion, Luo Xiaotian could tell from the number Su Chen mentioned that Su Chen's request was a bit excessive!
He coughed lightly.
"Boss Su, the Steel Legion's losses tonight were actually quite significant."
"How about you reduce the price a bit more for my sake?"
As the saying goes, if you ask for an exorbitant price, you should bargain down to the spot!
Su Chen never expected Zhao Yang to agree.
"Since Commander Luo has spoken, then let's reduce the amount I just mentioned by 50%!"
What is General Zhao's opinion?
Zhao Yang breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Even after reducing it by 50%, it's still a bit excessive!
Fortunately, the Iron Legion can still withstand it.
"no problem!"
Seeing that both parties had reached an agreement, Luo Xiaotian revealed a satisfied smile.
"I hope that from now on, both sides will live in peace and stop fighting amongst yourselves!"
"That's natural."
Su Chen stood up casually and extended his hand to Zhao Yang.
The Steel Legion suffered extremely heavy losses tonight and has to compensate the Tiger Gang for so many supplies.
From this point on, the Iron Legion is very likely to never recover!
Su Chen no longer needs to regard Zhao Yang as an opponent!
Zhao Yang's face was ashen as he shook hands with Su Chen.
After both parties were seated again, Su Chen then looked at Luo Xiaotian.
"Commander Luo, you just said you could tell me some information about the apocalyptic catastrophe?"
"That's right!"
Luo Xiaotian nodded slightly, then looked at the people behind Su Chen and Zhao Yang.
"Let them all leave first!"
It seems this intelligence is extremely well-kept.
Su Chen thought to himself and gave Xu Wenyue and the others a wink.
Xu Wenyue nodded in understanding and led Wang Yan, Ding Di, Jiang Yu, and others out of the conference room.
Jiang Hao, Wu Bo, and the others on the other side also got up and left.
Soon, only Su Chen, Luo Xiaotian, and Zhao Yang remained in the meeting room.
What I am about to say is highly confidential, even within the province.
"So try not to disclose this information to anyone you trust."
Luo Xiaotian said calmly, but his tone was serious.
Su Chen and Zhao Yang exchanged a glance and nodded slightly to indicate that they understood.
"Although this apocalyptic catastrophe came extremely suddenly."
"But after the investigation by the higher authorities, some clues were still obtained!"
"Actually, this natural disaster... is more like a test!"
Upon hearing this, Su Chen and Zhao Yang were both taken aback!
Is the apocalyptic disaster a test?
"From the initial high-temperature apocalypse, torrential rain apocalypse, extreme cold blizzard... all the way to the monsters and fog now, they are all forcing biological evolution!"
"Survival of the fittest, natural selection, and elimination of the inferior!"
"This is the purpose of the apocalyptic catastrophe!"
Luo Xiaotian's words echoed in the meeting room.
Even the well-informed Su Chen was stunned for a long time.
After a moment of silence, he asked,
Who put forward this test?
"What is the purpose of forcing us to evolve?"
Luo Xiaotian shrugged, a hint of helplessness in his voice.
"do not know."
"But one thing is certain: if we don't evolve, we're doomed!"
"How is this possible...?"
Zhao Yang muttered under his breath, seemingly not believing Luo Xiaotian's words.
Luo Xiaotian just smiled indifferently.
"General Zhao, believe it or not."
Unlike Zhao Yang, Su Chen was more inclined to believe Luo Xiaotian's words.
Because he remembered that after killing the Vampire Bat King in the valley of the secret realm, he had found the rune crystal.
At that time, Su Chen felt that someone had deliberately placed it there.
It's like a dungeon in an online game; after defeating monsters, you get rewards!
Later, Su Chen realized that he was probably overthinking things!
But Luo Xiaotian's words today confirmed Su Chen's guess!
After all, he comes from a province or region.
The provinces and regions definitely have more intelligence than we do!
The conclusions they drew were generally correct.
