Chapter 67: The Harvest (I)

Zhang Jun smiled wryly, "The approval of all A-level resident status must go through the Federal Assembly, even the federal government has no right to increase it privately, and there are only five mobile places in the whole Federation." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoI can call in on you to add two B-level slots, but I can't do anything about A-level. Truth be told, since I don't hold a position in the federal government, I can only use my father's B-class status to survive in Base City, otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to be an outcast or an E-class resident. ”

Of course, Zhao Yi wouldn't believe that Zhang Jun would become an outcast, he squinted his eyes and asked, "Can the two B-level identities you added to me be accompanied by C-level and below resident status?" ”

"Of course not, only A-level residents can be attached to other low-level resident status, which also shows the value of A-level status." Zhang Jun shook his head, "Even if my father is my grandfather's son-in-law, he has worked hard in the Ministry of Security for more than 20 years before he reached the ministerial level, during which he was born and died for the Federation countless times, and there are four injuries all over his body. is working so hard, it's just getting an A-level resident status. To say something that shouldn't be said, you have offset my father's efforts for more than 20 years in two months, and I still envy you. ”

Zhao Yi still shook his head, "There are no less than 3,000 officials at or above the vice ministerial level in the Federation, and there are as many as 2,000 officers with the rank of general, but I am the only one in charge of the Heavenly Master of the Shangqing Sect in Maoshan Mountain, and the conditions you have offered are still not enough." ”

"That's good, the one A-level status and two B-level identities promised to you will remain unchanged, and we will give you some more chips." Zhang Jun gritted his teeth, "The Ministry of Security will come forward and nominate you as a candidate for academician of the Federal Academy of Sciences." The Federal Academy of Sciences should still have a mobile quota for A-level status, but whether you can get this A-level status or not depends on your own ability.

The final academician review can only rely on you, and the Ministry of Security cannot help in any way. Moreover, this nomination can only be honored after the Holoccaust, because the Council has frozen the pre-Holoccaust academician review in order to prevent the mobile quota from being traded. ”

Zhao Yi thought about it for a while, it seems that Zhang Jun really can't get another A-level resident status, and this result is also acceptable.

As for the number of academicians, if it is according to the formal way, Zhao Yi can't even think of it, and it is simply a fool's dream to win the title of academician with his undergraduate degree. However, after the catastrophe, Zhao Yi is confident that he can win such a title with the essence of the corpse path he has mastered.

After the compensation from the federal government was settled, the two sides formally entered into negotiations.

The most scarce resources in Zhao Yi's hands are the list of Jinyiwei spies in one-eyed memory, the knowledge of the corpse path, and the last one is the corpse path talisman.

All the identities of the residents of the base city in Zhang Jun's hands have been given to Zhao Yi as compensation, so he must come up with new bargaining chips in the next negotiations.

For the Jinyiwei spy list, it should have been the most desired thing for the Ministry of Security and even the federal government. However, under the strong pressure of the apocalypse, the importance of this list has fallen to third place.

For this list, Zhang Jun is willing to give a price of 1 million tooth shells.

In the federal government's post-disaster planning, shellfish coins will replace federal coins and gold and silver as new equivalents, tooth shells are the smallest monetary unit, and the top is copper shellfish and jade shellfish, and the exchange base ratio is 100:1, that is, 1 million tooth shells are equivalent to 10,000 copper shells or 100 jade shells.

Shell coins have a long history, from the Neolithic Age to the issuance of half a tael by Qin Shi Huang for thousands of years, shell coins have been the currency in circulation. The federal government's re-use of shellfish as currency is by no means a whim to learn from the cultural retro of the Restoration Army, but has a deeper meaning.

According to the research of sociologists, the social order outside the base city will collapse after the catastrophe of the last days, and although the base city adopts a ration system to maintain order, it is also urgent to introduce a monetary system as a means of adjustment.

Although precious metals such as gold and silver are inherently equivalent to the properties of general equivalents, after thousands of years of development of human society, the amount of existence is not small, and it is not easy to be controlled by the federal government, and it is not suitable as a currency in the last days.

So at this time, the shell coin entered the attention of the federal government. This shellfish coin is not the ancient kind of shellfish made of natural sea shells, the tooth shell is made of aluminum magnesium alloy imitation of the appearance of natural tooth shellfish, the copper shell is made of copper-nickel alloy with special materials, and the jade shell is made of Taishan jade as raw material.

One of the characteristics of this shellfish coin in the shape of a sea shell is that it can absorb and store magical power, and the upper limit of the amount of magical power that can be stored between tooth shells, copper shells, and jade shells is exactly 100:1. The value of the shell coin is not determined by the material itself, but by the magical power it contains, and the copper shell without the magic power may not be as valuable as the tooth shell full of magical power.

According to the federal government's plan, as the catastrophe progresses, there will be more and more survivors who awaken the Wu bloodline, and the federal government will announce the most basic Wu clan exercises. In this way, it can not only improve the overall ability of the human race to resist the catastrophe, but also use high-level Wu clan exercises to lure the Wu clan masters of the awakened bloodline to join the federal government army, which is really a multi-task.

The fee charged by the base city for accepting homeless people can only be settled in shell coins, and 10 tooth shells can allow a homeless person to stay in the base city for one day. Using this method, firstly, the monetary status of the shellfish currency was consolidated, and secondly, a large amount of magic power could be obtained from the shellfish coins collected.

Zhao Yi was very dissatisfied with the price offered by Zhang Jun, 1 million sounds like a lot, and it is only 100 pieces when converted into jade shells. If you compare Base City to an express hotel for 200 dollars a day, then 1 million scallops is only 20 million federal dollars.

After listening to Zhao Yi's analogy, Zhang Jun was speechless, although this analogy was vulgar, it was very intuitive. In such a comparison, he also felt that 1 million tooth scallops was indeed a bit unkind, of course, what he didn't expect was how the express hotel could be compared with the base city, which provided not only accommodation, but also safety and order.

In the end, after bargaining, Zhang Jun raised the price to 1,000 jade shells, and Zhao Yi nodded in agreement.

Zhang Jun proposed that the federal government could hire Zhao Yi as a special adviser to the Ministry of Security and grant him the rank of colonel out of the need for knowledge of corpse roads.

Zhao Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and Zhang Jun, who was smiling, said inexplicably, "Mr. Zhang, you still don't want to take a bite of the federal government, don't you really think I can't see it, you definitely didn't come with a special commission from the federal government this time." You're just representing one of the federates, even the biggest of them, am I right? ”

"How do you know?" Zhang Jun was surprised, and then realized that he had said the wrong thing, "I did bring a special power of attorney from the federal government, if you don't believe it, you can go to appraise." ”

Zhao Yi waved his hand, "Don't be in a hurry to deny it first, if the Ministry of Security wants to forge a power of attorney, how can I identify the authenticity of the letter." According to what you just said, the federal government has a total of five A-level resident mobile places, but you can only come up with the one allocated to the Ministry of Security, and the one from the Federal Academy of Sciences has to be fought for by myself, isn't that very revealing?

And if you're really here on behalf of the federal government, you should hire me as a special adviser to the federal government, not a special adviser to the so-called Ministry of Security. You keep saying that you have full authorization from the federal government, but why do you have to make all your promises without that one-third of an acre of land from the Ministry of Security. Mr. Zhang, can you give me an explanation, don't think you can lie to me, although I don't have mind reading skills, I have at least six Dao skills to tell if you are lying. ”

Zhang Jun sighed, "Sure enough, nothing can escape Zhao Tianshi's eyes, and I really can't represent the entire federal government." There are many mountains in the Federation, and no force can suppress all opposition voices. As you know, the main force of my grandfather's department has always been in the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Security, and there is nothing we can do about anything else.

Under my father's leadership, the Ministry of Security and the Ministry of Internal Affairs merged to supervise the military, but there were many factions in the military, and their roots were far deeper than those of my grandfather, so we really lacked influence over the military. The rank of colonel just mentioned is just a fictitious title, and the military will still recognize it, but it is only limited to recognition, and don't even think about it. I am actually negotiating with you on behalf of my grandfather and my father this time, and we are willing to show all our sincerity in exchange for your forgiveness and help to us.

In addition, I must say that we were informed of the impending end times before you made the doomsday warning to the federal government, and not only us, but also the Restoration Army, two of whom gave the apocalyptic warning before you. ”

Zhao Yi raised his eyebrows, this was something he hadn't expected before, and then he remembered two people, "It's Mr. Zu who reminds you, and it's Mr. Hong who reminds the Restoration Army?" ”
