Chapter 1046 - Trade in the United Territory

"I thought you had put down all your intelligence work. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"It's Kutpov who is in charge of this mission, and I'm only responsible for helping him liaise with the Ring Trade side. The coordinates of the Arrow company have been revealed, and if nothing else, he will fly to Finland tomorrow. ”

"Hah, that old man, I know, quite an interesting fellow. ”

"Interesting? I don't see anything interesting about that face with as many scars and wrinkles......

In a villa on the outskirts of Moscow, an old man and a young woman sit opposite each other at a dinner table and enjoy a less family-friendly dinner. But Nikolaev was content, and since Marina's death, his family has been torn apart, and the cold war between his daughter and father has continued to this day, and the last time he had dinner together seemed a long way off.

Both sides know it's not each other's fault, but they can't forgive each other. Whatever Marina did, she was Natasha's mother, and she died in Georgia on her orders. He didn't expect Natasha to forgive him, even if he trusted her to understand him......

Nikolaev gave his daughter a deep look, and Natasha stopped the fork in her hand, frowned and touched her cheek.

"Is there anything on my face?"

"There's a lot of stuff, a lot of things that look a lot like Marina's...... Sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned that name. ”

"It's okay, I know her death, you're more painful than I am. Natasha said seemingly indifferently.

Nikolaev smiled bitterly, pinched his eyebrows, and after hesitating for a long time, finally said the words that had been brewing for a long time.

"Listen, I've heard he has a lot of women. ”

"Aren't you too?" Natasha sneered.

"This ...... It's still a little different......" Exposed by his daughter's private life, Nikolaev touched his nose with a little embarrassment, and said in a somewhat cramped tone, "I just hope that when you go outside, you can take care of yourself-"

"I will. ”

Nikolaev opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, so he had to spread his hands, "...... I hope so. ”

Life was her own, and he didn't have the right to interfere much, even though he was her father, but she was already an adult. But if possible, he wanted to meet Jiang Chen again, and this time he swore that he would definitely grab him by the collar and beat that hateful and lucky boy.

Looking at her father's expression, Natasha knew what he was thinking and couldn't help but sigh.

After a moment of silence, she spoke slowly.

"After a while, I'll go live there. ”

"Oh. Nikolaev replied in a nasal voice, as if he didn't care.

"I'm not going to forgive you, but ...... I remember all the things you've done for me. ”

After a pause, Natasha stared at the steak on the plate and said in a pretended relaxed tone.

"Thank you always. ”

However, from her slightly trembling voice, it could be heard that she was not at peace when she said this.

"Thank you......"

The old man smirked and touched his stubble chin.

He had made up his mind to beat that kid before, but suddenly changed his mind.

Drinking two bottles of vodka together also seems to be a good choice.

……

"Ahh

His nose was a little itchy, and Jiang Chen couldn't help but sneeze.

I don't know who was worried about it, but this was the second sneeze he had sneezed in five minutes. If it weren't for the fact that he knew very well that his physique was immune to most colds and flu, he would have wondered if he had a cold.

Sitting opposite Jiang Chen and drinking tea, Chu Nan laughed wickedly without conscience and quipped.

"It was cold last night?"

"It's just that my nose is a little itchy...... Where did you just go?" Jiang Chen rubbed his nose and continued.

Chu Nan sighed, "You're talking about the Northern Unified Region, are you really listening?"

"Yes, yes, go on. Jiang Chen waved his hand and motioned for him to continue.

For the NAC, which has rekindled the flame, the Northern Union is like a nomadic herder. They moved south because of climate problems, and they took a fancy to the relatively wealthy Wanghai City, and vainly tried to take away this "prosperous" land from the NAC with the equipment inherited from the Pan-Asian cooperation.

Especially the three Edens, it can be said that half of the reason why they chose Wanghai City as the direction of their march was because of it.

But it's clear that the NAC isn't vegetarian either, and last winter's offensive ended in a fiasco. The Prowler tank, which they were so proud of, was simply vulnerable to particle cannons that surpassed the level of pre-war technology.

With this thing as a hole card, even if the people in the United Territory want to play, they have no chance to play it. However, in the same way, they couldn't beat it, and it was difficult for Jiang Chen's side to beat it.

Previously, Jiang Chen, Han Junhua and other high-level leaders of NAC had not discussed the issue of the expeditionary joint region, and it was not impossible to realize it, but a very real problem was placed in front of them, that is, the problem of benefits.

Winning or losing, even if the NAC can withstand thousands of kilometers of supply lines, pass through the wasteland where countless xenomorphs, zombies, and marauders are entrenched, and win this war, it will not be of substantial benefit to the NAC.

The "gap between the rich and the poor" between the two sides was too large, and the people in those United Nations Regions had nothing to covet in their hands except weapons. The only thing that interested him was the Jiuquan Launch Center behind the United Nations Zone, but it was only interested. After all, according to the Cult of the Grave Keepers, there is nothing left to loot there.

Since war is the worst option for both sides, there is only one right option left.

"You mean, they plan to trade with me?" Jiang Chen smiled, took a sip of the tea made by Tie Guanyin, "We have a lot of good things here, but what do they exchange for them?"

Chu Nan didn't speak, he also smiled, took out a graphene card from his pocket, held it on his finger and shook it, then put it on the coffee table between the two, and gently pushed it in front of Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen picked up the graphene card, rubbed it on the position of the switch, and a holographic screen listing the list of goods appeared in front of him.

"Xenomorph fur, steel-toothed tiger teeth, blood vine, subcrystalline...... There's something I don't understand. Jiang Chen frowned.

"With the exception of the subcrystalline and the industrial blood vine, the others are luxuries, only found in the interior to the northwest, and can be processed into coats, ornaments, or whatever, and these luxuries are better sold in the Sixth Block and other more affluent survivor settlements in the south and overseas. How's it going?' Chu Nan said.

Hearing the word luxury, Jiang Chen almost didn't laugh out loud.

Sure enough, it is human nature to pursue the quality of life, and when you don't have to worry about food, clothing, and use, you will start to think about something else, but this is also the road to the development of civilization after all, and it is impossible for a civilization without luxury goods to prosper in the true sense.

"What do you think about this?" Throwing the card back on the table, Jiang Chen didn't answer Chu Nan's question directly, but asked his opinion in turn.

"If trade can feed their mouths, at least let them control their hands, I think there's something wrong with that. But we still have to figure out what can be sold and what can't. Chu Nan said with a shrewd face. (To be continued.) )
