Chapter 186: Partner
The population of the Chinese mainland is larger than that of the Rus' state, and the latter uses the resources and technology in its hands to obtain a large amount of materials through the export of anti-radiation/anti-radiation drugs, and uses this to infiltrate and radiate its own influence, trying to control the Great Northeast Economic Cooperation and make it a vassal of the Rus' state.
If he has the manufacturing technology of regenerative injections in his hands, once he can produce them on a large scale, it will inevitably have a serious negative impact on the economic interests of the Rus' country.
In this case, it is naturally reasonable for the other party to send someone to investigate him.
It's just that I don't know why Borodin didn't serve the master wholeheartedly, and his interest in Krovov was far greater than his interest, and then there was a scene in the Wang Ming Manor building.
Back to the question of the city lord of Kite City.
If he was not mistaken, Fei Xiang must have put the charge of killing several teenagers on his head, which explains why the system space reward value increased significantly after the teenagers swindled the regeneration injection a few days later.
This Fei Xiang! After playing so many intrigues with him behind his back, and now asking Johnson to contact him for a big deal, the development of things is really interesting.
It's so much fun!
Of course, he could notice that Fei Xiang's small movements relied on the system to help the dog. From Fei Xiang's point of view, he would not think that he had already recognized the identities of those teenagers, and then deduced the follow-up facts.
But even so, the two sides have had a head-to-head battle over the ownership of Maxim's Cannery, why should Fei Xiang do business with the enemy?
What kind of medicine is that vicious guy selling in his gourd?
Tan Zhen did not wait for Tang Yan's answer, but waited for Johnson's further explanation.
Fei Xiang said that he had cooperated with Huang Lei in the past, but now that Huang Lei is dead, and Maxim's Canning Factory is also in your hands, he hopes to continue the previous relationship. As for the earlier military conflicts...... It was all a misunderstanding. ”
Misunderstand?
Misunderstand!
The Yuancheng Expeditionary Force left many corpses in the Maxim's Canning Factory, which was unexpectedly exposed by Fei Xiang's "misunderstanding".
Since Johnson mentioned Huang Lei and Maxim's Canning Factory, it is thought to be related to canned sea fish.
Tang Yan looked thoughtful, and his fingers were gently tapped on the coffee table.
After about five minutes, he nodded to Tan Zhen and returned his gaze to Johnson's face: "I can go to see Fei Xiang, but there is a precondition. ”
"Please."
"This must be known to the people of the city."
"Why?"
Johnson was stunned, he didn't understand his intention to do this, he knew that others were eager to make a lot of money when they did business, he was good, for fear that others would not know.
"You can tell people that I went to Fei Xiang to discuss cooperation with Fei Xiang for the purpose of importing canned sea fish into Yuancheng, and at the same time, you can also test the ideas of Yuancheng and prepare for solving the historical problems between the two cities."
What are the historical issues between Gem City and Kite City?
Nature is a technique for reducing the concentration of radiation in the soil.
Tang Yan exported canned sea fish at the reserve price in exchange for access capital, seeking to solve the problem of old grievances between the two cities, no matter what the outcome of the matter was, he was working hard to achieve no internal fighting on the peninsula.
What will people think of his actions? How would you evaluate him as a person?
Johnson smiled, and the smile was ugly: "I finally know why Hui Liancai, Chai Xiaonong, and Wang Ming are afraid of you." You're either a pure good guy or a devil with a knack for playing with people's hearts. ”
Tang Yan said: "Does this have anything to do with our transaction? ”
Johnson wiped his beard with his hand: "It's okay. ”
"And what is your answer?"
"I need to ask what that means." After saying this, Johnson got up from the couch: "It may take quite a while. ”
Tang Yan nodded: "We are waiting for you here." ”
Johnson pushed open the door and walked out, followed by the sound of descending the stairs.
Cai Wei opened a window, leaned against the window frame and sat down, looking at the night view of Gem City, looking at the night view of Gem City, with a peaceful face.
She wasn't interested in their conversation, she was interested in the lights and street scene outside.
Tan Zhen said: "Do you believe Johnson's story? ”
Tang Yan said: "I'm more curious about what story you have. ”
Tan Zhen stopped talking, picked up the cup on the table and took a big sip, his eyes flashing with a lustre.
Ghouls are synonymous with longevity in the wasteland.
The longer the lifespan, the more things people experience, and the stories in life are naturally more exciting than ordinary people.
Silence fermented in the room.
Tang Yan didn't care, slowly drank the wine in the cup, and quietly looked at the person in front of the window.
She's looking at the scenery in the distance.
He watched her from a short distance.
……
It was about half an hour before footsteps could be heard outside again, and Johnson pushed the door open and walked in.
"Kite City agreed."
Tang Yan nodded: "Time, place?" ”
Johnson smiled, picked up the cup and took a big sip of wine: "Three days later, at midnight, 20KM west of Fengzhen, Jiashan Reservoir. ”
"Okay." Tang Yan nodded in agreement.
The ghoul repeated: "Three days later, at midnight, the Jiashan Reservoir 20KM west of Fengzhen ...... Oh, it's close enough to Kitetown. ”
The meaning he wanted to express was clear------ God knows if Fei Xiang would set up an ambush there.
Tang Yan didn't care about Tan Zhen's ridicule, and since the deal was agreed, he got up and said goodbye.
Johnson looked at the time, didn't hold back, stood up and sent Tang Yan and the three out of the back door.
The stars shine in the field, and the crescent moon is like a hook.
Cai Wei kicked off her boots and walked with her arms outstretched on the concrete-ground platform outside the stadium, her long sleeves covered with moonlight, like an elf who had fallen into the mortal world.
Tang Yan and Tan Zhen walked behind with cigarettes in their mouths.
There were few pedestrians on the street outside the stadium, and only guards walked by in twos and threes, talking about the three fires that Comrade Jiao had burned since he took office.
The first fire: a 30% reduction on the basis of the existing monthly protection fee.
In this way, not only did the proportion of Wang Ming's tax increase when he was in office be reduced, but it was also much less than before the tax increase.
This initiative was warmly welcomed and appreciated by the people, and although the soldiers of the Jewel City Guard did not benefit significantly, the harmonious improvement of the situation in the city reduced their work intensity. After all, a harmonious and stable society has a positive impact on the people who live in it.
The second fire: thoroughly investigate corruption in the public security bureau, energy agencies, and tax agencies, severely punish system moths that rely on nepotism, and streamline unnecessary posts.
As soon as Wang Ming died, the so-called tree fell and scattered. Some discerning and clever people fled from Gem City as soon as possible, which brought great convenience to streamlining the organization. Those who didn't leave were not a big problem, after all, everyone knew that Comrade Jiao was standing behind Tang Yan, that kid was a bad star that even Liancai and Chai Xiaonong didn't dare to provoke, and Xia Xin also sent Wei Qianshou to escort Comrade Jiao, not to mention resisting, he would be arrested and punished if he spoke.
The third fire: Establish a cooperative relationship with Toshima to promote the flow of goods and information sharing between the two markets, and expand the economic volume. At the same time, a more transparent tax system will be established, and more active tax reduction policies will be implemented for commercial projects involving people's livelihood.
In the past, Gem City and Toshima were two independent kingdoms, not only fearful of each other, but also had a lot of friction, and the market was relatively closed. With the death of the ship boss and Fang Zhengrong one after another, Tan Zhen obtained the management of Toshima and united with the Panda Army to form a strategic partnership, and Gem City also benefited from this, and had a political foundation to improve relations with Toshima.
These three fires have been done cleanly and neatly, from tax reduction and burden reduction to open source and reduce expenditure, without dragging the mud and water, so that people can't find fault at all.
Just as the guards commented on Comrade Jiao.
As a robot without a concept of personal interests, it will not seek benefits for its own small group like Wang Ming and Luo Zuoming, and then compete for power with the help of those behind it, dare to be selfless and reforming the management system in a big way.
This is a disaster for management and those who rely on nepotism to get to the top. But for the vast majority of ordinary people in Gem City, it can be said to be the luckiest thing.
And all of this was given by Tang Yan.
Without Tang Yan's meritocracy, there would be no Comrade Jiao in Gem City.
Without Tang Yan's backing, there would have been no Comrade Jiao's resolute and resolute actions.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk...... I didn't hear what those people said, you are a great good person now. If the ship boss is still alive, he must be happy with the choice at that time. The ghoul said as he walked, and the night burrowed into the hole in his face, and the deep nostrils, which were somewhat terrifying.
Obviously, the "happy choice at the time" here is from the perspective of a dying man willing to exchange a warm spring breeze for the wasteland, not from the perspective of the Toshima administrators choosing the right allies.
Tang Yan said with a smile: "Shouldn't you feel honored to be friends with a great benevolent person like me?" ”
The ghoul suddenly quickened his pace, walked up to him, took off the hat that covered half of his face, and bowed deeply, "Thank you." ”
"Uh......" Tang Yan looked frightened, he thought that Tan Zhen would laugh at him for being ashamed, how did he know that he would usher in such a formal thanks, he didn't know what to do for a while, and the smile on his face twitched for a long time before revealing an unnatural smile: "I'm very distressed that you do this." ”
Without explaining his actions, the ghoul put his hat back on, covering his horrific face, and changed the subject: "Here's your chance." ”
Tang Yan looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, and his expression returned to normal: "Yes, the opportunity has come." ”
The phrase "opportunity has come" here refers to the topic that the two discussed at Maxim's Cannery in the morning.
Since Hui Liancai and Chai Xiaonong think that the time has not come, then create an opportunity for them.
In other words, it's better to lure the snake out of the hole than to wait for the rabbit.
What he wants is for the other party to send troops to the Maxim's Cannery, and then prove his defensive strength to the people of Gem City.
The only military power he has now shown is the Reaper Armor, the CMC-300 Power Armor, the Type 5-4 Armored Combat Suit, and the Vulture Chariot.
If these things leave the Maxim's Cannery, will those people be tempted?
If the bait of Maxim's Cannery wasn't enough, what about the love of his life that he explicitly said on Al Jazeera?
Yes, he wants to use Maxim's Canning Factory and Cai Wei as bait to seduce Hui Liancai and Chai Xiaonong.
However, there must be a suitable reason to take the "advanced weapons" recognized by outsiders away from the Maxim's Canning Factory in order to win the trust of those two suspicious old foxes.
He was still worrying about this matter in the morning, but he didn't expect Johnson to introduce himself to such a deal in the evening.
On the one hand, he can use this matter to buy people's hearts and manage his reputation. On the one hand, it can create a reasonable reason to go out and give Chai Xiaonong, Hui Liancai, and Mei Lin three fighters.
Of course, that was their "fighter", and it was also Tang Yan's fighter.
Tan Zhen said: "You are such a terrible guy. ”
Tang Yan looked at Cai Wei's beautiful back and said, "Yes, I think I'm quite approachable." ”
Tan Zhen said: "Have you ever seen a bad guy admit that he is a bad guy? ”
"You can just pull someone over and ask them if I'm a bad person."
Tan Zhen looked at the passers-by walking sporadically on the street: "I'm afraid that they will hack me to death." ”
Cai Wei walked to the end of the cement table.
Tang Yan walked over, grabbed her white and tender ankles, and gently helped her put on her boots.
Cai Wei said thank you, her eyes full of sweetness.
Tang Yan took her hand and helped her down, clasping her white fingers tightly and not letting go.
He'd done that before.
Before......
Tan Zhen watched them quietly for a while, then turned around and stepped over the cement platform and walked towards the modified pickup truck parked in the parking lot.
………………
The next day.
There's a gossip circulating in Gem City.
When Comrade Jiao took office and drastically changed the city's management structure, Tang Yan was not idle, and it is said that he was contacting the top management of Yuancheng in order to put canned sea fish into the Yuancheng market.
A lot of people don't look forward to it. Because when Huang Lei was still there, Meixin brand canned food was contraband for the people of Yuancheng, and it was not accepted by the high-level of Yuancheng, so it could only infiltrate it little by little in the form of smuggling.
Over the years, the two sides have formed a lot of bonds around Maxim's brand canned food.
As Niu Feng and Xiao Yong said, the soldiers of the Kite City Defense Army often set up cards in the control area to intercept merchants coming from the direction of Gem City, requiring them to pay high tolls, and only the White Widow's convoy was able to pass at a very low price------ many people thought that this involved the trading of power and sex.
Of course, even so, that is the "ability" of White Widow.
Ordinary guilds are barricades and robberies, and the situation of canned sea fish that Gem City uses to export to the Western Alliance and earn foreign exchange is naturally even worse.
Even if Hui Lian only enlisted the help of the Jecheng boss and exchanged a certain amount of canned sea fish for the right of way, there would occasionally be accidents. For example, a vehicle transporting canned sea fish accidentally touched a mine planted by a "marauder", and for example, a "homeless person" who came from an unknown place took advantage of the darkness to rob a vehicle that fell behind.
In short, the escort of the Jicheng boss only made the people of Yuancheng have some scruples, and it was not so excessive.
If soil improvement technology is the beginning of the feud between the two cities, then the dispute over the canned fish is an extension of the old feud.
Tang Yan wants to open the Kite City market in this situation, which can be said to be as difficult as the sky.
