"Two in One Chapter"
"Where's Shishi?"
Seeing that only Ye Zhongming came back, Concubine Mu Xin asked suspiciously.
"She said she would go back first."
Ye Zhongming answered and sat down, thinking in his mind.
Mu Xinfei probably guessed what her best friend said to Ye Zhongming, and after thinking about it, she began to express her hopes.
The situation in S District is really bad. Because Mu Xinfei's father was seriously injured, the interior was unstable first. There were people in the entire S2 partition and even within S1 who were trying to get out of S District and out of the control of Mu Xinfei's father.
If it weren't for the concern that the joint situation of several major resistance areas would not be easily destroyed, and if it wasn't for the uncertainty about how seriously injured Mu Xinfei's father was, perhaps drastic changes had already taken place in Area S.
But even so, due to internal friction and external covetousness, the current S area is already the weakest of the four major resistance areas.
Once this situation continues, perhaps District S will be swallowed up by the other three resistance districts! At worst, they will be forced to replace the commander-in-chief and enter a state of reorganization.
This is what Concubine Mu Xin never wants to see.
Seeking help from outside forces is the best way. Mu Xinfei has also looked for it. This time at the Jianfeng Pass base, the area that invited the most external forces besides area C was area s. However, the cruelty of reality gave Mu Xin The concubine gave a severe blow. After being contacted by people from the S area, the two forces that came to the S area fell to the S2 area. Mu Xinfei spent a lot of money but did not get the rewards she deserved, which made her current situation even worse. Because of this, the opposition to her within S1 became louder and louder.
It can be said that Concubine Mu Xin is on the verge of stepping down.
And once others take control of Area S, they will never allow Concubine Mu Xin and her daughter, who still have considerable influence on the inside, to live in this world.
This is also the reason why Concubine Mu Xin is anxious and Bai Shishi pleads.
Maybe it was because of the previous relationship between Ye Zhongming and Bai Shishi, or maybe it was because Mu Xinfei was a little desperate now. She didn't hide much about her own situation and almost told Ye Zhongming everything.
Ye Zhongming did a little analysis and knew that the woman had not lied to him, because speaking out before specifically negotiating the terms of cooperation would undoubtedly give others the opportunity to ask for an exorbitant price.
"How do you want me to help you?"
Ye Zhongming looked at the Killing Rose in his previous life and asked directly.
"First of all, I hope you can help me build a war department with all silver equipment."
After Concubine Mu Xin made this request, she glanced at Ye Zhongming, gritted her teeth, and simply said what was on her mind.
"Secondly, I hope to get your new magic crystal weapon."
"Also, can we reach a strategic alliance? Watch each other out?"
"Finally, if possible, can my men have priority to use the Guangji training platform? You know, there are only one or two war corps loyal to me. Each of these soldiers is precious, and I don't want them to die easily. .”
Ye Zhongming just nodded after hearing this, but did not speak immediately.
He has promised Bai Shishi to help Concubine Mu Xin, but that does not mean that he will help her unconditionally. His contribution must be in line with the interests of Yunding Villa.
After thinking for a while, Ye Zhongming looked at Concubine Mu Xin and said: "These conditions of yours are undoubtedly all to strengthen the existing combat power in your hands, and you even want to bring Yunding Villa to join you and others when necessary. In the conflict of forces.”
Concubine Mu Xin was startled. She did not expect that Ye Zhongming did not talk about benefits, but commented on her own conditions. However, she did not deny that what Ye Zhongming said was true. This was her plan. As long as the war department in her hands was strong, then No one can shake her and her father's position.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"Perhaps, we can change the way." Ye Zhongming said seriously.
"To be honest, your conditions are a bit too taken for granted." Ye Zhongming bluntly pointed to the core of the problem: "As far as I know, the three major weapons of the resistance zone, the mechanical fortress, are in the hands of zone C, and the exquisite floating ball is in the hands of zone four. In total, Rong's Holy Clothes are a unique treasure in T-area, you and your S-area have nothing."
"And I am most interested in the resistance zone, or the only things that can be comparable in value to Yunding Villa's magic crystal weapons are these three things, but you can't get any of them. Since you don't have the corresponding high-quality products, you Why do you ask me to hand over the magic crystal weapon to you?"
Mu Xinfei's face turned pale and she opened her mouth, but no words came out. She is very clear about the significance of magic crystal weapons, and also knows that the cooperation between T area and Yunding Villa is based on the exchange of Rong's holy clothes and magic crystal weapons. There is indeed nothing comparable to it in her S area.
"Also, with all due respect to Commander Mu, your silver equipment war department plan is a bit ridiculous. My Yunding Villa does not have all silver personnel, how can I put your war department at the forefront of priority? Even if I don't first When I equip my own people with silver equipment, there are people from Yingcheng who are at the front. They have followed me through life and death for several months, and they deserve to be rewarded."
"even!"
Ye Zhongming continued to hit Concubine Mu Xin unceremoniously, "Even if there is only one war department loyal to you, the number is only a small number of 5,000, but I don't think you can afford to buy 5,000 sets of nearly 3,000 sets now." Thousands of pieces of silver equipment!”
"The price of a piece of silver equipment outside is at least a bottle of four-star evolution potion!"
The resistance zone is indeed far superior to the outside forces in terms of cultivating manufacturing professions, but even if the entire resistance zone's craftsmen were put together, they probably wouldn't be able to make equipment on an assembly line like Ye Zhongming. Only the best among them can make it. Silver equipment, and the cycle to create a piece of Silver equipment is in weeks.
Just look at Area C, which is currently the strongest, and you will know that their first division, Broken Blade, only has a high proportion of silver equipment, and they are not yet able to achieve all silver equipment.
The relatively weak S-area is even worse in this regard.
Ye Zhongming knew that his huge mental power and excellent materials gave him abilities that other craftsmen could not achieve, and he had no intention of selling this ability at a discount.
"What about the other two conditions..." Concubine Mu Xin's face became paler and she still asked unwillingly.
Ye Zhongming spread his hands, "I don't feel the need to answer the other two conditions, because the answer is obvious. I have better partners for strategic alliance, such as T-zone, and the Optical Training Platform. As long as you can make magic. Crystal can be used while we are still at the Jianfeng Pass base."
Mu Xinfei's chest rose and fell violently, she suppressed the grievances and depression in her heart, and finally tried hard to say: "I know these may only be beneficial to us, but we can compensate in other aspects as an exchange!"
Ye Zhongming glanced at Concubine Mu Xin lightly, and the contempt in his eyes made Killing Rose feel weak. She leaned on the chair, lowered her head, and her eyes were a little red.
She regarded Ye Zhongming as the last life-saving straw, but this life-saving straw was getting further and further away from her at this moment.
"You care too much about the exchange of interests. Maybe you think that this is the only way to be worthy of the opportunity your good friend has given you and to retain the dignity that she deserves. But sometimes... you can actually change your thinking."
In despair, Concubine Mu Xin suddenly heard the voice of Ye Zhongming burst into her brain, causing her to quickly wake up from her daze.
Ye Zhongming looked at Concubine Mu Xin and began to tell her what he was thinking.
"In fact, there is not only one way of cooperation: exchange, there is another way, called investment."
Concubine Mu Xin leaned forward, she felt that what Ye Zhongming said seemed to be more beneficial to her.
"The silver equipment you mentioned, I really can't fully meet your requirements, but I can help you in a certain amount, and you can provide materials and blueprints, and I will be responsible for manufacturing it. You only need to pay some procedures. Just pay the fee, which will undoubtedly reduce your burden.”
Hearing what Ye Zhongming said, Mu Xinfei's eyes lit up and she wanted to pat her thigh. At the same time, she secretly blamed herself for losing her usual intelligence and not even thinking of such a simple workaround.
"The basic framework of the resistance zone was formed before the end of the world. Even if some survivors are absorbed after the end of the world, the backbone of the resistance is still the same people as before. Now some of these people are starting to turn away from you. Have you ever thought about establishing a A brand new war department completely loyal to you?"
A new war department? Loyal to me?
Concubine Mu Xin was stunned by this idea.
It's not that she hasn't thought about this method, but she forgot about it just because she thought about it, because the S area is very chaotic now. Let alone establishing a new war department, even the existing war department can hardly control it. How can she have the energy? Make new ones.
What's more, is it so easy to establish a war department? That requires huge manpower, material and financial resources! Thousands of evolution potions, tens of thousands of weapons and equipment, a large number of professional scrolls and skill scrolls... Which of them can be easily obtained?
Even if you are as wealthy as District C, if you want to establish a district, you still want to ask for help from the other three resistance districts. How can an acting commander who is about to lose his position have the ability to establish a new war department!
But Ye Zhongming would not take aim without aim. Concubine Mu Xin suppressed her excitement and said: "You, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is that I will help you form such a war department. I will provide you with evolution potions, weapons and equipment, and even professional scrolls. You will find the right candidates. I think this will be helpful for the resistance that controls the huge population. It’s nothing to the district.”
Wen Zhong and Ye Zhongming revealed these days that each of their resistance areas brought many ordinary people into the defense circle at the beginning of the end of the world. Of course, these people were all skilled people or highly educated people, and The families of these people.
After the end of the world began, these people became evolvers one after another, but their large number of relatives rarely had the chance to evolve. Until now, these well-protected humans still dare not face zombies and mutant life, so naturally they have no chance to evolve. evolution.
There is also a labor force of survivors that has been gradually absorbed, and many of them are ordinary people.
If you select some of these people to form a war department, it is indeed very feasible.
Even if these people are not good enough, they can still recruit members from the huge bottom survivors in the outside world to complete the formation.
Ye Zhongming waved his hand and continued: "You can transfer some people from the war department who are loyal to you to the new war department as the backbone and leadership, which will be more helpful to your leadership."
"As long as we form an army, I can let your people complete basic training at the Guangji training platform for free."
"But what do you want?"
Concubine Mu Xin was not carried away by Ye Zhongming's idea, but asked quickly.
Ye Zhongming smiled, "You will definitely not be able to give me a satisfactory reward at the moment, but as long as you promise me a few things, I can count this support as my investment. When you fully control the S area, we will Let’s talk about reward.”
Concubine Mu Xin did not immediately agree to Ye Zhongming, but planned to listen to the conditions and weigh the pros and cons.
"Then tell me your conditions."
Ye Zhongming immediately stretched out a finger, "One, I need some specialized talents."
Concubine Mu Xin immediately frowned, "People are not goods, and I have to respect their opinions."
"In the last days, nothing is untradeable."
Ye Zhongming interrupted Mu Xinfei with a serious look on his face. Without waiting for the woman to say anything else, he continued: "Second, I want a firearms and bullet production line and related technicians."
In the early days of the apocalypse, firearms were still very useful. After Ye Zhongming saw the standard weapons in the resistance zone, he came up with the idea of arming Yunding Villa with firearms. This way, at least in the last year or two, firearms would be helpful during battles. It can effectively reduce the casualties of Genting soldiers.
Of course, he could offer to purchase a large number of finished firearms and bullets, but that would be passive, so he simply proposed a production line.
"Third, if your newly formed war department can recruit people in Yingcheng, for every person you recruit, I will give away one-star and two-star evolution potions for free."
"Fourth, before I give you a large amount of potions to form a war department, you need to pay me some magic crystals in advance, and the evolution potions I provide you do not include evolution potions of four stars and above."
"Fifth, I want to build a transmission line between Yunding Villa and District S, and I also have the right to open shops in all subdivisions of District S!"
After saying this, Ye Zhongming looked at Concubine Mu Xin, who had closed her eyes, waiting for her answer.
"What about the interest? What's the interest after all this?"
Mu Xinfei's hands were shaking slightly. At this moment, she realized how terrifying this man was. Behind his seeming generosity, he actually hid the idea of controlling the S-area in this way!
No, he is not hiding it at all, he has just told you that he is going to infiltrate District S economically!
"As for the return on investment, there is actually nothing." Ye Zhongming smiled happily, "Once you control the S area and become one of the four real commanders in chief, then when buying the Jingjue Floating Ball, you should Can you please give me convenience?"
"Also, for the vast area under your control, I request... information sharing!"
