161: Give Tiangong Base a shot?
Send the gold and rare resources to Tiangong Base!
Upon hearing this, Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people quickly asked, "Commander, is our cooperation settled then?"
"When the supplies arrive, this Commander will contact you again."
Lin Yang did not give any direct response, but instead ended the call immediately.
Bang!
The moment the call ended, the two leaders of Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce simultaneously picked up nearby objects and smashed them, their bodies filled with rage.
"They are going too far!"
"This damned Alien Commander is absolutely going too far!"
"This damned, greedy devil!"
The two of them wildly smashed and cursed for several minutes before finally managing to vent some of the anger in their hearts, settling down.
Then, Unpretty Leader, with bloodshot eyes, looked at Little Eagle Sauce's person and angrily said,
"It's all your fault for saying that greed is a breakthrough, and it might not be a bad thing for us!"
"Now look, this damned Commander won't even give a clear answer, and we have to pay with resources and a large amount of gold instead!"
"If he goes back on his word afterwards, how will our losses be compensated?!"
Little Eagle Sauce's person seemed to know he was in the wrong and, suppressing his anger, said, "We didn't expect this damned Commander to be so greedy!"
"Furthermore, cooperating with him was a joint decision between both sides; you didn't object before, so it's a bit inappropriate to blame us entirely now, isn't it?"
"Hmph, if it weren't for your suggestion, we would never have thought of cooperating with him!" Unpretty's person retorted.
This remark somewhat angered Little Eagle Sauce's person, who immediately retorted, "Then why didn't you just say you wouldn't cooperate earlier?"
"You..." Unpretty Leader was instantly enraged. "If I had said that, do you think that greedy Commander would only target us and let you off?"
"Don't forget, we are in deep cooperation now; in his eyes, our two nations are one!"
Little Eagle Sauce's person fell silent.
Because Unpretty Leader was right.
In that situation, if they had dared to say no to cooperation, setting aside whether they would suffer retaliation, just cutting off their eligibility for resource transactions with Tiangong Base would be an unbearable cost at present.
Afterwards, the argument temporarily ceased, and Little Eagle Sauce's leader took a deep breath, taking the initiative to say, "Since things have come to this, let's first send the gold and supplies to Tiangong Base. This Commander's greed is beyond imagination, so we need to prepare a backup plan and quickly build interstellar mining spacecraft to break free from our dependence on him!"
A murderous glint flashed in the eyes of Unpretty's high-ranking official: "This loss today, we will get it back sooner or later!"
...
On the other side, Lin Yang was in a great mood.
After talking with Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce, he extorted another large batch of resources and a significant amount of gold from them.
This feeling was simply too good!
Moreover, he also realized that Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce were eager to talk to him, attempting to win him over.
They thought he was a greedy Alien and wanted to use resources to win him over, making him abandon his bias towards his own country.
It must be said, these two nations had some ideas.
If he really were an Alien, facing Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's humble attitudes, he probably would have been tempted.
After all, who would easily refuse such a good offer, gaining two powerful nations to act as their enforcers for no reason?
However, he was a Shangxia person!
A descendant of Yan and Huang!
It was impossible for him to cooperate with them just to gain two lackeys!
Although he could pretend to agree, there was no need for that at all.
After all, in terms of armed forces, his country would soon be able to build Sky Carrier, with combat power that could dominate worldwide.
In terms of resource extraction, he had plenty of Robot that he could use.
There was absolutely no need to cooperate with Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce.
Not even a feigned cooperation was necessary!
Anyway, as long as they still wanted to exchange supplies and technology from his Tiangong Base, they could only obey his demands.
Cooperating or not cooperating made no difference.
If they didn't cooperate, they still had to listen to him, whereas if they cooperated, he would have to endorse them.
Either way, not cooperating was more cost-effective.
So, just now, he didn't care at all what Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people thought.
He tried his best to appear even greedier and more domineering!
He completely elevated himself above their two nations.
After all, an Alien who possessed advanced technology couldn't really have an equal conversation with them, could he?
Just as Lin Yang was reviewing the situation, a message from Butler One suddenly arrived.
"Commander, Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce's people have already launched a new material transport device. They asked me to inform you that the resources you just demanded have been delivered, and they hope you will give a reply regarding cooperation."
"Haha, they are quite fast." Lin Yang smiled, then leisurely said,
"Tell them that these gold and resources are the price for them wasting this Commander's time just now, and also the price for their two nations to continue exchanging supplies with Tiangong Base. If they want to cooperate with this Commander, this much is not enough!"
He had no intention of cooperating with Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce at all.
He was just trying to fleece them!
Butler One's mechanical eyes flickered, and he nodded, saying, "Understood, Commander. Also, Apocalypse is asking if you would like the seeds delivered now."
"Send them over." Lin Yang waved his hand, giving a set of coordinates.
The Moon and Blue Star are close, and a simple round trip would not consume too much energy.
Just as he was waiting to receive the plant seeds after genetic modification.
In the United Office Building of Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce, the sound of smashing objects echoed again, accompanied by angry roars!
"This damned Commander is playing us!"
"He has no intention of cooperating with us at all!"
"What about just the price for wasting his time, and the price for not cutting off our exchange of supplies with Tiangong Base, it's all just an excuse!"
"This greedy and damned Alien!"
"I want him dead!"
The high-ranking officials of Unpretty and Little Eagle Sauce were furious to the extreme!
A large amount of gold and rare resources, only to get such a reply, they simply couldn't swallow this insult!
"How is the research on our secret weapon coming along? Can it be used?"
Suddenly, Unpretty's high-ranking official turned his head and spoke with a sinister expression.
A voice came from the corner: "It's already in the debugging phase."
"Very good, once debugging is complete, fire a shot at that Tiangong Base!" Unpretty Leader's face was full of murderous intent!
And Little Eagle Sauce's person, upon hearing this, was instantly startled: "Attack Tiangong Base? Are you crazy?"
"Hmph, when debugging weapons, there are always times for errors, aren't there?"
Unpretty Leader said nonchalantly.
"We can't swallow this insult. At that time, we'll just say the coordinate lock was an error, apologize to him first. If he lets it go, it means he currently doesn't have enough power to attack us!"
"This is too risky. What if he directly launches an attack?!" Little Eagle Sauce's person said with a cold face.
Thank you, brothers and sisters, for reading. I wish everyone prosperity and good health!
