Chapter 205: Disproportionate Transactions
The leader is a woman, twenty years old, dressed in a red robe, and her visual impact is quite strong, but in addition to her appearance, Huang Shang's eyes are bright, and he really can't see what hidden abilities this woman has.
Judging from the aura, the other party is not an overrunner at all.
Behind the woman stood an old man with gray temples, dressed in a black suit, trembling with crutches, Huang Shang even had the illusion that if there was no crutch, the seventy-year-old man would collapse directly to the ground.
Which gust of wind brought these two great gods to me?
"Hello."
Huang Shang stepped forward and took the lead in speaking.
"You're the leader of this place? On behalf of the Night Charm Pavilion, I would like to extend my sincerest greetings to the honorable lords. ”
Huang Shang nodded, his eyes looked at the old man behind him, it was obvious that although the two were standing together, they were obviously not all the way, which could be confirmed from the eyes of both parties.
"My lord, I call the temple to bless you with a safe life." The old man's voice was hoarse, like a dry old tree, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he would be broken by the majesty.
Night Charm Pavilion? Temple?
The corners of Huang Shang's mouth twitched slightly, just by listening to the name, he could roughly guess the details of the other party.
"I don't know what the two of you have planned to do when you come from afar?" Huang Shang then asked.
"Cooperation."
The voices of the woman and the old man coincided.
"Oh, cooperation?" Huang Shang smiled.
The basis of cooperation is that the two sides are evenly matched, and they don't want to solve the problem by force, but Huang still doesn't understand what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the organization represented by these two people.
"Then, you two should come with me to the office lobby." After the words fell, Huang Shang entered the base with the group.
After the reconstruction of the Lingfeng Tower, she served as the work of the watchtower, because the person in charge of the building was Su Lan, in order to facilitate Huang Shang to look into the distance, she ordered people to build this large office on the top floor of the Lingfeng Tower.
The office is opulent, even more magnificent than the offices of some of the top corporate CEOs before the end of the world, with mirror-like smooth floors, no walls in the whole room, and tempered glass on all sides.
In this way, when Huang Shang sits in the boss's chair, he can browse the whole picture of the base without moving his position.
The dome of the office is carved with mysterious and solemn patterns, and the simple and elegant murals, no matter how you look at it, this is not the office space owned by ordinary high-ranking people.
Looking at the shocked expressions of the two, Huang Shang grinned quietly, his goal had been achieved.
Since it is cooperation, it is necessary to expand its own interests to the maximum, and the premise of maximizing benefits is to let partners know their own heritage and strength.
And these backgrounds and strengths are not verbal words, only let them feel the strength of the base from the details, will they retreat.
"You may be seated." Huang Shang made a gesture of please, "It's noon, why don't you accompany me to lunch here?" Huang Shang asked.
"It's better to be respectful than to obey." The old man laughed.
"I'll listen to you." The young woman also accepted the invitation.
The reason why this luncheon was held was not because Huang Shang was sympathetic to the other party, but to show the strength of the base again.
When the dishes that could not be named were put on the table, Huang Shang could clearly feel that the breathing of the two of them was no longer heavy.
Fish-flavored shredded pork, kung pao chicken, spicy chicken, braised pork.
Although these dishes were ordinary home-cooked dishes before the end of the world, when they were placed on a table in the wasteland, the deliciousness of the dishes was easily magnified hundreds of times.
As ambassadors of the two bases, although the women and the old man do not worry about food and clothing on weekdays, they are only satisfied with food and clothing, how can they ever see such a pompous leader in the last days.
The soup with shredded fish and pork exudes an enticing aroma, and the golden skin of the chicken is appetizing at a glance, whether it is spicy chicken or braised pork, it is mouth-watering.
After serving the white rice, the woman and the old man even forgot the purpose of coming here this time, and feasted on it until they were full of wine and food, and then showed an embarrassed expression, as if remembering their own work.
"Now that you're full, let's get straight to the point."
Seeing the envious gaze in their eyes, Huang Shang smiled with satisfaction.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Nightshade won't forget your hospitality."
"The temple will not live up to your expectations."
"Then you'll come first, lady of the Nightshade."
The woman wiped the oil and water from the corners of her mouth, licked her lips and said, "Lord Chief, I wonder what you think of female slaves?" ”
Slave girls? Opinion?
"Slaves?" Huang Shang frowned slightly.
"That's right, there are a lot of female slaves in our Night Charm Pavilion, and they are definitely good goods."
He thought that the other party would be a unique regime established by women, who tenaciously stole their lives in the apocalypse, but he didn't expect that the other party would sell female slaves with one mouth.
"And what do you want from me?" Huang Shang's face was expressionless.
"Gasoline, food, and those weapons on the walls of your base, if you can open up the supply of these items to us, you will receive the most sincere friendship of the Night Charm Pavilion."
"Ambassadors of the Temple, what about you?" Huang Shang did not answer immediately, but turned his gaze to the old man.
The old man is a personal essence, different from the bewitching jian goods of the Night Charm Pavilion, the old man is an over-limiting person, and his ability is [Observing Words and Feelings], he can feel that when the woman of the Night Charm Pavilion talks to Huang Shang, although the leader of this place does not show anything on the surface, he is a little angry in his heart.
This caused the old man to quickly adjust his trading plan, in which the slave trade was an important part.
"Your Excellency, Chief." The old man bowed slightly, "The temple has prepared a big gift for you, that is, education and medical care. ”
Healthcare, education?
This attracted Huang Shang's interest.
Indeed, no matter how you look at it, the base has been impeccable so far, but education is a major shortcoming.
"Yes, for the sake of the continuation of human civilization, even in the last days, education cannot be abandoned, the temple has opened a schoolhouse, which teaches various natural sciences and applied skills, as well as our medical facilities, which can also be open to your organization, and we can even form an alliance to jointly fight against the threat of xenomorphs and mutants."
The old man said unhurriedly, "In the same way, we may need your food, oil, and weapons. ”
Open schools to the base? This is no different from brainwashing in disguise, which is called education, and it is better to cultivate loyal lackeys for the temple.
"Come back, two." Cold, Huang Shang said indifferently.
"Well, I'll relay the words of the temple to the temple priests." The old man didn't say anything, he had already discovered the emotions in Huang Shang's heart, and said goodbye to himself.
And the woman of the Night Charm Pavilion, who had been left out in the cold, looked angry at this time.
"Mr. Huang, I hope you know what today's rejection represents." The Night Charm Pavilion woman snorted coldly, twisted her waist and left the office.
