Liu Yi looked at Shangguanqi and Ke Rin beside him, both of them looked at Liu Yi with expectant eyes, and Liu Yi immediately understood what they meant.

"Well, please tell me the time and place." Liu Yi said.

"Then tomorrow at noon, at the Tianyuan Hotel in the city center, which is our company's property, Mr. Liu only needs to tell the reception staff at the front desk, and they will arrange everything."

"Understood, see you tomorrow."

Turning off the call, Liu Yi asked Shangguanqi and Ke Rin, "What do you think?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be what I talked to them about before, I wonder why they changed their minds again?" Kamikanzaki Road.

"I don't think these people can be trusted. A few days ago, I thought we were liars, and now we are taking the initiative to come to the door, such people may betray at any time, it is better to deal less with them. Kirin said.

"What you said also makes sense, but at present, we have to organize everyone to protect themselves, the most lacking is funds, if these companies are willing to pay, it is not impossible to cooperate once or twice, but long-term cooperation is indeed unreliable." Liu Yi said.

"Shall we meet with them?" Shangguanzaki asked.

"Let's meet and talk first, it's too hasty to refuse now, if the other party really has the sincerity to cooperate, you might as well try it." Liu Yi replied.

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow." Shangguanqi said.

"I'm not going." Ke Rin shook his head.

Liu Yi smiled: "Okay, you can continue to work on mechas, and strive to get the power core out as soon as possible." ”

At noon the next day, Liu Yi and Shangguanzaki came to the Tianyuan Hotel in the center of the city on time, and walked into a very luxurious living room under the guidance of the front desk lady.

There were already several people waiting in the living room, and one of them was Yan Feng, the Minister of Security who spoke to Liu Yi. Seeing Yan Feng's real person, Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi were slightly surprised, this person was handsome, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and he thought he was a weak person just by looking at his face, but he didn't think that his figure was actually very strong, and his gestures looked very neat, quite a bit of a soldier's momentum.

Shangguan Qi leaned into Liu Yi's ear and whispered, "I think this person probably retired from the army. ”

Liu Yi nodded, in fact, he also felt the same way, this Yan Feng should be a very good person.

Yan Feng saw that Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi kept looking at him, so he smiled and said: "Welcome two, I am Yan Feng, the security minister of Kecheng Mining, and these are our financial director, administrative director and ......."

Yan Feng introduced several people in one go, but Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi didn't remember much, and they could see that the protagonist of today's meeting was actually Yan Feng, and the others were just here to accompany them.

After the two sides sat down, Yan Feng didn't say anything polite, and went directly to the topic.

"Mr. Liu, Mr. Shangguan, I invited you to come today because you came to talk about that matter a few days ago, after the discussion of our company's senior management, we now hope to cooperate with you and protect your and our safety together." Yan Feng said.

Liu Yi smiled: "Didn't you refuse a few days ago? Why do you think of us again now? ”

Yan Feng smiled a little embarrassedly and replied: "At this time and that time, you must also know the major events that have happened in the past few days, so the company has rethought your proposal and agreed that it should be a very good way to cooperate with you." ”

"You're talking about the War Horse Galaxy, right?" Shangguanzaki interjected and asked.

"Yes, this has had a big impact and has forced us to re-examine the current situation. Our attitude was not friendly enough a few days ago, and we hope to get your understanding so that it will not affect the cooperation between the two sides. Yan Feng said with some emotion.

Liu Yi is not a person with a small belly, and since the other party admits that his attitude is problematic, Liu Yi does not plan to care about it anymore.

"Of course, there is no problem with cooperation, how are you going to cooperate?" Liu Yi asked.

Yan Feng replied: "Your proposal a few days ago is that our company will contribute money and materials, and you will organize the armed forces to ensure our safety, right?" ”

"That's right, that's right." Liu Yi nodded.

"It's okay to pay for and material, but we want to make some changes." Yan Feng said: "We hope to arrange some people to participate in your decision-making and jointly develop a safety plan. ”

"This ......" Liu Yi and Shangguan Qi were a little embarrassed, the other party's request was not unreasonable, but in this way, Ke Rin would definitely not agree.

In the final analysis, the backbone of this self-protection organization are all members of the Iron Horse Gang, and if the people of Kecheng Mining are involved, I am afraid it will be inconvenient to do things, not to mention that there are large enterprises on one side and people on the road on the other side.

Yan Feng was very good at observing words and feelings, and at a glance he could see that Liu Yi was a little embarrassed, so he said: "Is there any difficulty, you might as well say it directly, everything can be discussed." ”

Liu Yi thought for a while and said: "Actually, the people who participate in our self-insurance organization are more complicated, and there are also many workers who work in mining companies, if your company also sends people to participate in decision-making, I am afraid that it will make both sides unhappy." ”

Shangguan Qi listened to Liu Yi's words on the side, and secretly praised in his heart: "I really deserve to be a scholar, I can actually think of such an excuse!" ”

After listening to Liu Yi's words, Yan Feng couldn't help but admire it a little.

Yan Feng knew that what Liu Yi said was indeed the truth, and as the Minister of Security over the years, his main job was to deal with conflicts between workers and enterprises, so Liu Yi's words made him unable to refute.

"Okay, you're right, but we still want to be part of the plan, after all, this matter is related to the safety of our business." Although Yan Feng was still insisting, there was already a sense of relaxation in his tone.

Liu Yi took the opportunity to say: "Minister Yan, I can understand your worries, but I hope you can trust us, otherwise it will be difficult for this cooperation to continue." ”

"It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that we also have our own considerations, if there is a real fight with the bandit group in the future, the cooperation between our two sides will be very important, if you can't participate in the decision-making, my side will also be very difficult, after all, I have to explain to the above."

Liu Yi said: "May I ask Minister Yan, what can we do to gain your trust?" You might as well make it clear, but it's better to participate in decision-making, and if there are your people, I'm afraid those workers won't join. ”

Yan Feng thought for a while and said, "Can you give us a little time, we need to discuss it." ”

"Please."

With Liu Yi's consent, Yan Feng pulled a few people into a room next to the living room, closed the door and started a small meeting.

Liu Yi and Shangguanqi exchanged glances with each other, and it could be seen that the other party really wanted to promote cooperation, but they also wanted to grasp the decision-making power in their hands.

Liu Yi knows very well that the decision-making power must not be handed over to the other party, otherwise this organization will become a mercenary army of large enterprises, which is a situation that must be absolutely avoided.

About ten minutes later, Yan Feng and the others returned to the meeting room, and it seemed that they had already discussed the result.

"Mr. Liu, after discussion, we can agree to your conditions, but you must regularly explain to us the use of funds and the operation of the organization, and we can not interfere with the rest." Yan Feng said.

Everything that followed fell into place, and the two sides soon signed an agreement, and when Liu Yi and Shangguanqi walked out of the hotel door, the three million funds had already arrived in Liu Yi's account.

Three million is not much, it is not much, it is enough to live for a long time, but if it is used to buy weapons, it is nothing.

Take mecha as an example, three million is enough to buy a dozen smuggled mechas, and it is the kind that has been dismantled from the power core and operating system.

If you buy those military-level mechas, it is only enough to buy two or three units, so if you want to make the most of this money, you have to use Liu Yi and others to use their brains.

However, no matter what, it is always a good thing that there are companies willing to cooperate with Liu Yi and them, and with the first one, there may be a second or a third.

Back at the Iron Cavalry headquarters, Liu Yi, Shangguanqi, Ke Rin, and some of the Iron Cavalry Gang gathered together to discuss how to use the money.

Ke Rin first said: "I think it's best to buy the materials to make the power core of the mecha first, and upgrade the mecha as soon as possible, so that even if the robbers come, we will not be afraid, and at the same time, we can let Kecheng Mining see our strength." ”

Shangguan Qi disagreed with Ke Rin's opinion, and immediately retorted: "What you said is simple, although there is now the core information of the mecha, it is not easy to create a power core, who here knows cryogenic reactors?" If you want to get the power core out immediately, it will take at least two or three years. ”

Ke Rin's subordinate man named Lao Wang said: "Actually, we don't need to fully master the reactor technology, some things can be obtained from the underworld, as long as we are willing to spend money." We ask experts to help with the other parts, it shouldn't take a lot to figure it out, and I support our boss's opinion! ”

Someone spoke for Ke Rin, and his voice immediately became louder, and he said: "That's right, let's get the power core out first, and we can modify any mecha to military level in the future, and we are still afraid of robbers at that time!" ”

"What if you can't do it in a short period of time? Isn't this money going down the drain, how can the mining company explain it? Who can guarantee that it will be successful right away? Shangguan Qi fought back without showing weakness.

Everyone argued word by word, and no one could completely convince the other party, especially Shangguan Qi and Ke Rin, who were red-faced and red-faced, like two red-eyed bulls.

Everyone saw that the two of them were getting more and more angry, and they were afraid that they would fight, so they hurriedly asked Liu Yi to help persuade them.

Liu Yi, who had been shrinking in the corner and did not speak, finally opened his mouth at this time: "My opinion is that there is no need to rush to build any power core, and there is no need to rush to buy other weapons, the top priority should be to recruit people first and establish the militia organization!" ”
