Chapter 320: Negotiations (4)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Compared to Zhao Yu’s well-trained soldiers, they were like a mob.
She didn’t know that Zhao Yu was eager for both sides to withdraw their guns. After all, his soldiers really didn’t have any bullets in their guns!
ng Xian turned around and looked at Zhao Yu. “Zhao Yu, I wonder how long you will be staying here?!”
Zhao Yu seemingly dissatisfied with her probing into the military operation.
“Don’t misunderstand!”
“Before we ca here, we didn’t know that you were stationed here. We originally planned to set up a camp here…” ng Xian hurriedly explained.
“So, I want to ask when you’re leaving. After all, the solar power here is quite useful to us…”
“That will depend on higher-up’s arrangents. But from what my brother told , this military base is quite essential. Many more resources and personnel will be deployed here in the future.”
“This…”
ng Xian felt a touch of disappointnt. If they completed their mission and left, it would be better since the solar power plant would remain for them.
“The main base of Re Zhao Corporation is in the north. It should be inconvenient to co here. Initially, I’d like to set up a trade exchange point with you. What do you think?”
Trade?
Zhao Yu contemplated for a mont. Trading with ng House Village for the supplies he needed seed like a good idea.
“It’s a minor matter; I can decide.”
ng Xian felt a little moved, thinking Zhao Yu was fortunate to have such a trusting brother to grant him this level of authority.
“Well, our settlent is lacking electricity. Can we move our camp here?”
Zhao Yu was pondering his response.
After all, he was currently wielding borrowed power, using the prestige of the Re Zhao Corporation to intimidate ng Xian and her group.
“We don’t have to be in the power plant. There’s a vast open space outside the east gate. We can set up camp there. If possible, I’d like our camp to have electricity.”
“Outside the east gate?”
Zhao Yu stroked his chin. The area outside the east gate was an option. It was a fair distance from his base, so he wasn’t afraid that ng Xian’s group would see through his facade.
ng Xian had her own concerns. If they were too far away, Zhao Yu might have other ideas.
If both parties were closer, even if Zhao Yu harbored ulterior motives, he would have to consider the proximity and worry about ng Xian action.
So, while it seed like she was asking Zhao Yu’s opinion, she was quite determined to move the camp there.
“The power plant is currently shut down. Do you know how to restart it?”
“Well, don’t you guys know?” ng Xian didn’t understand the intricacies, but she assud that Zhao Yu could handle such issues.
“We do have the capability to restart the power plant, but what’s in it for us?”
ng Xian was overjoyed as a sign that Zhao Yu agreed to their relocation outside the east gate.
“We can exchange goods for it, any supplies, as long as the price is right…” She quickly responded.
“It doesn’t have to be complicated.”
“We’ll manage the power plant—repairs, operations, maintenance. You just pay for the electricity you use.” Zhao Yu directly proposed.
“Pay for electricity?”
ng Xian glanced at her group. Most of them had expressions that seed to say, “Please agree, leader.”
“Paying for electricity is fine, but how do we determine the price?” She nodded.
Zhao Yu wasn’t in a rush to discuss the price, “No need to hurry. We currently lack the personnel to repair the power plant. First, move your camp here. Once I request more personnel from the higher-ups and the electricity is restored, we’ll offer a free trial day of operation. We can discuss the pricing later.”
Discussing the price now would be premature, as they wouldn’t know if it would be profitable or not. The specifics could be discussed once the plant was operational.
Moreover, Zhao Yu felt sowhat uneasy and wanted to send ng Xian and her group away as soon as possible.
“Agreed!”
ng Xian was delighted. She recalled what Xu ng Lan ntioned about Zhao Yu’s improvent over the week.
Perhaps, he had really turned over a new leaf?!
Following this, ng Xian handed over the eight prisoners to Zhao Yu, and while pointing to the alien creature, she curiously asked, “What kind of creature is this? I’ve never seen anything like it before!”
Zhao Yu casually replied, “It’s an alien, a new type of creature. As for its origin, I’m not sure. We received orders from the group to eliminate it.”
“Is it powerful?”
ng Xian had noticed that along with the creature’s body, there were four soldiers, probably lost in the combat.
“Very powerful.” Zhao Yu said.
At the sa ti, he entrusted ng ng in the group to her. “She’s a survivor we rescued. We initially planned to send soone to escort her to your village, but since you’re here, you might as well take her with you.”
ng Xian was slightly surprised. She hadn’t expected Zhao Yu to bring back a survivor for them.
However, thinking back the mother and daughter whom Zhao Yu had directed them to ng House Village, she believed him.
ng ng, who had witnessed ng Xian’s negotiation with Zhao Yu, was already filled with admiration for her. Upon ng Xian’s gesture, ng ng hurriedly approached.
The two parties went their separate ways. Zhao Yu remained at the base, while ng Xian and her team left.
After they had left the base, a few individuals approached ng Xian with concern, “Madam ng, are we just going to leave like this? Is it okay?”
“Yes,” ng Xian nodded.
“Although I believe he will keep his promise, to be safe, we should keep an eye on them.”
She selected four individuals, “I’ll set up a surveillance team. You’ll be responsible. If you notice any military personnel heading our way, report imdiately.”
This alleviated everyone’s worries.
“Sister ng, are we really going to be neighbors with them?” Xiao Liu was sowhat uneasy, deep down feeling that these soldiers couldn’t be trusted.
“Indeed,” ng Xian smiled, “Being neighbors with these soldiers isn’t necessarily a bad thing.”
“If they harbor no ill intentions, then in tricky situations, we can ask for their help or lead them to intervene.”
She didn’t believe that if there were large numbers of mutated creatures or radiation beasts, Zhao Yu and his team would not just stand by.
“Although it seems different from our original plan, We can still considered it a success. Those on the surveillance team stay, the rest co with . Let’s prepare to move our camp! Hahaha” ng Xian laughed heartily..
