"There's no misunderstanding." Dai Yi's eyes were fixed on her ten fingers. She didn't even look at the commander.
She had her pride, after all, as the representative sent by the Dai Family, to be willing to lower herself to discuss matters with them was giving them a lot of face. What was the Sneak Attack Army, how could they be compared to the Dai Family?
In the end, you opened your mouth and asked for six million star coins. Who were you trying to impress with this attitude?
Hearing her short and straightforward answer, the commander understood. This delicate girl looked young, but in reality, she wasn't as simple as they thought. She was very experienced in this aspect. If you want to collude with Huang Long to raise the price, then I'll let you have it. This was a classic example of taking a step back in order to advance.
The commander's expression also became awkward. "Miss Dai, actually, our boss isn't determined to get it. Brother Long knows that our boss has been stuck at the beginner War Venerable level for many years and hasn't been able to break through. Therefore, he thinks this reagent is an opportunity."
Dai Yi lowered her lily-white hands and glanced at him. "He thinks it's an opportunity. I also think it's an opportunity. I'm afraid Commander Huang also thinks it's an opportunity. As for how this opportunity should be grasped, it's still up to the surprise army."
This meant that she wanted to see how he would compromise. The commander said seriously, "Miss Dai, a straightforward person doesn't resort to insinuations. Our surprise army might not be much in the eyes of your Dai family, but I'm confident that our transportation ability in outer space is quite good. Once the Heavenly Wolf Mercenary Group cooperates with us, the benefits will be great. You might find it strange, but there's very little cooperation between armies. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. This year, Extreme Heaven Corporation has suspended our cooperation on the K Star System. Their financial resources are already very tight.
Dai Yi turned her head and glanced at Ding Meng. Ding Meng immediately replied in a low voice, "Yes."
Dai Yi was silent for a while before saying, "Commander Huang, the captain and I have talked before. He expressed your intentions very clearly."
Huang Long smiled and said, "What do you think, Miss Dai?"
Dai Yi shook her head. "If this was any other time, I definitely wouldn't agree to your request."
Huang Long was still smiling, but his gaze on Dai Yi flashed with an almost imperceptible chill.
Dai Yi suddenly changed his tone. "However, now that I've come to the Flying Star City in person, there must be a conclusion to this matter."
Huang Long's eyes narrowed. "Miss Dai, do you have a better idea?"
Dai Yi stared at him and said, "I can agree to your request, but I also have my own conditions."
Huang Long appeared to be very respectful. "Please speak!"
Dai Yi said: "Every Sky Wolf Army caravan that passes through the space station and sells their products to the Federation, I want 10% of the profits. As for your cooperation with the Sneak Attack Army, what exactly is the cooperation?
I'm not interested in knowing, and it has nothing to do with me. "
Not only did Huang Long not get angry, his smile became even more cheerful: "Miss Dai really has the demeanor of a great family. To be able to cooperate with someone as straightforward as Miss Dai, I'm willing to hand over that bottle of reagent with both hands."
However, the smile on Dai Yi's face disappeared at this moment, "Commander Huang, don't be in a hurry to thank me. You don't have to give me the commission, just let the Green Arrow Army collect it for me."
"Pa!
Pa!
Pa! "Huang Long simply clapped his hands." Brilliant!
Truly brilliant!
Miss Dai is still the most considerate, considering every aspect of the problem!
I, Huang Long, admire you! "
Dai Yi's beautiful eyes flashed. "I just don't know what you think, Commander Huang?"
Huang Long was still smiling cheerfully, without any trace of anger. "Hehe, I just said that I'm willing to hand over that bottle of reagent to Miss Dai with both hands."
This time, it was Dai Yi's turn to be stunned. She couldn't believe that the other party would actually agree so readily. "Are you serious?"
Huang Long didn't even say anything, directly waving his hand towards the shuttle car in the distance. In less than three minutes, Le Fei walked over with a tray. On the tray was an exquisite little metal box. The box was also printed with the Federation's unique "Longsword" logo. Beside the box was a small key-shaped chip.
"The password is inside the chip. Miss Dai can examine the things inside." Huang Long smiled.
"There's no need to examine it. This is a genuine reagent."
Dai Yi noticed that the protective layer on the surface of the chip hadn't been opened, which proved that the box had never been opened in the first place.
This Huang Long was smart enough to know that it was a rare commodity, so he didn't even touch it.
Huang Long clapped his hands. "Alright, we've finished talking business. Let's talk about something happy. Miss Dai, would Brother Ding give me some face tonight?
Let's get together for a drink and talk about our friendship? "
Dai Yi really wanted to say no, but now that she had taken all the benefits, she couldn't bring herself to say it.
If she didn't open her mouth, Ding Meng would be even less likely to open his mouth.
"I hope Miss Dai can stay for a few more days. There are still many interesting places to visit in Flying Star City. I hope Miss Dai can return satisfied." Huang Long stood up and extended his hand.
Dai Yi could only shake his hand and thank him. "Thank you for your hospitality, Commander Huang."
Huang Long smiled and said, "That's what I should do. I wish Miss Dai a pleasant time. We'll meet again tonight."
After that, he and the marshal walked side by side towards the villa's gate.
For some reason, Dai Yi felt that there was something hidden behind Huang Long's polite and humble smile.
It wasn't until the Heavenly Bird Shuttle lifted off and Le Fei left that Dai Yi turned her gaze to Ding Meng. "Do you have a deep grudge with that Marshal Hu?"
Ding Meng stared at the blue sky. The shuttle had already turned into a dot of light, but his tone was especially depressed. "I used to be a coolie. I almost died at his hands."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Dai Yi immediately showed a sad expression. "I didn't know you had such an experience."
As a first-class citizen of the Federation, she was definitely aware of the humanitarian "exile policy" of the Holy Grail Federation. Coolie was the common name for laborers. A laborer sent to an exile planet was basically waiting for death. The number of people who made it out alive was minuscule.
But Ding Meng was standing here now. Dai Yi could already imagine how difficult Ding Meng's past must have been. He must have struggled painfully on the edge of life and death. It was not difficult to understand why Ding Meng was always dressed in rags. At this moment, she could not help but change her impression of Ding Meng.
"Actually, I personally don't agree with this exile policy. I hope you don't mind."
Ding Meng retracted his gaze and looked at her calmly. "Miss Dai, now is not the time to talk about coolies. I don't know if you have the same feeling, but there seems to be something wrong with this Huang Long."
Dai Yi asked curiously, "You feel it too?"
Ding Meng said, "I don't really understand what you were talking about just now. I only know one thing. No matter what you do, if things go too smoothly, it may not be a good thing in the end."
Dai Yi fell silent, carefully thinking about Ding Meng's words. It was not some profound philosophy, but as long as she felt it made sense, she would seriously consider it.
"Are you worried that Huang Long will go back on his word?" Dai Yi could not help but ask.
Ding Meng turned around and walked towards the villa. "My mission this time is to protect your safety. I'm only worried about this problem. If you really want to ask me what I think, my advice is to leave this place as soon as possible."
Ding Meng's premonition had always been correct. At this moment, inside the shuttle car flying in the sky, the marshal in the passenger seat asked with a livid face, "Brother Long, don't tell me you're really going to give the reagent to her this time?"
Huang Long no longer had any trace of a smile on his face. His expression was extremely gloomy, and his shrill voice sounded extremely strange inside the car. "Give it to her?
What a joke. I'll let her enjoy it for a while, and then she'll obediently return it to me tonight. "
The marshal hesitated. "She's the representative of the Dai family. Do you want to force her?
Is that appropriate? "
Huang Long sneered. "The Dai family used to send their young masters to our Flying Star City. Since when was it her turn?
This Dai Yi is only the eldest daughter of the fifth branch of the Dai family. She doesn't even have a status. I really don't know what she's so smug about.
His eyes were blazing with anger. In fact, what he was really angry about was not Dai Yi's status, but the conditions she had offered. On the surface, it seemed that the two families had profited from the cooperation with the Heavenly Wolf Alliance and the Federation's lowering of the transportation tax. But in fact, the benefits they had earned had been taken back by Green Arrow.
Compared to the continuous income of 10% profit, the value of the reagent was nothing.
This was what Huang Long was angry about. If he had really agreed to Dai Yi's request, not to mention how the general commander would punish him, just the large and small forces in outer space would laugh at him like a monkey. They had spent a lot of effort to get the reagent, and they had a good hand, but they had played it like this. How shameless would they be?
Even the galactic pirates would probably wink at him. "Commander Huang, aren't you guys usually so arrogant?
But in the end, you were still punished by Green Arrow. What J8 Heavenly Wolf Army? What 2B Army? "
He did not want to hear these words even if he was beaten to death.
The marshal muttered, "That's true. We have no reason to fear this Dai Yi. In the end, she's nothing more than an errand girl. She doesn't have the final say in the family."
Huang Long gritted his teeth and said, "I treated her politely and treated her with the utmost courtesy. Who knew that this bitch would come up with such a shameless condition? She's going too far. Even the Federation's patrol fleet's captain wouldn't dare treat our Heavenly Wolf Army with such disrespect. Who does she think she is?"
The marshal was also angered by Huang Long's curses. "That's right. Neither of them are good people. Ding Meng was clearly a laborer under my jurisdiction, but she insisted on lying and saying that he was her cousin. She didn't even have the slightest sincerity in negotiating. This time, I've finally met this Ding Meng. I can't let him escape alive. That Dai Yi is the same. You better think of a way to chase her away."
Huang Long recalled the scene of him shaking hands with Dai Yi. He did not know why, but when he saw Dai Yi's beautiful legs in silk stockings, a ball of fire inexplicably rose in his stomach.
"This time, I'll definitely teach her an unforgettable lesson." Huang Long said hatefully.
