Chapter 218 Rubber Alliance
"Why, does Deputy City Master Tang have any advice?" Lin Guiyao looked at the cheeky man.

Although this guy has been dismantling his teammates just now, who knows if they are performing a big show of red face and white face?So Lin Guiyao's tone was still somewhat unfriendly.

Tang Dao sighed: "How dare I teach Master Lin, I stay here with the cheek, in fact, I want Hope City to save us Qiufeng Mountain, this year's severe drought is really too serious, no more food, everyone Going to be a refugee!"

"Save you? Why? The so-called guarantee?" Lin Guiyao sneered.

He has food, and there is a lot of it. Even if it is supplied to refugees outside the city who are not even qualified to be slaves, it is no problem, but he will not and cannot do this.

He would only give to others as much as they could pay for him. The establishment of Labor Town and the implementation of Qisan Tianfu could give them a chance to earn their own living, which was already very benevolent and righteous.

If he shows kindness and distributes food on a large scale without asking for anything in return, within a few days, the entire territory of the wasteland will come and wipe out Hope City.

Without him, the foundation of other people's rule has been touched.

"Master Lin, you are just kidding me. Although I, Tang Dao, am in trouble, I am not a shady person. I'd better not mention the guarantee. What I want to say is, business."

"Business?"

"Yes, Mr. Lin said just now that you are welcome to do business. If you make a guarantee and leave, you will not immediately renege on your promise?" Tang Dao sat up straight and asked.

"Don't worry about this. I always stick to my word. Please tell me what the business is."

"rubber."

The word "Tang Dao" was spoken softly, and Lin Guiyao's expression changed slightly.

Rubber, the basic industrial raw material, is not as common as minerals and food, but many chemical products are inseparable from it, such as tires, rubber hoses, wire insulation, airtight rubber rings, etc. It can be used in places that require wear resistance and waterproofing.

Now the biggest obstacle to the gasification of Hope City's biogas is the air duct. The cement pipe is not airtight and flexible. Although the glass tube can be used, it is fragile and dangerous. Metal pipes are suitable, but Hope City's current technology Can not do the seamless connection between the tube and the tube.

To put it bluntly, only rubber tubes are the most suitable and economical.

Not to mention that if you make a generator, the cables can't always be stuck, right?You definitely need to pack something to ensure safety.There are also car tires. If other parts of a car are broken, you can repair them as long as you know some skills. But if a tire blows out, you have to find another way.

These are inseparable from rubber, unfortunately...

"You have rubber? Doesn't Metropolis monopolize all the rubber trees?" Lin Guiyao looked into Tang Dao's eyes, as if he wanted to see something from him.

"Uh, we don't have rubber trees, and we don't dare to have them, but we have figs..." Tang Dao blushed a little, and explained anxiously.

"Although there is little glue produced and the ingredients are mixed, it is indeed rubber. I didn't lie to you about that!"

FIG tree?

Lin Guiyao rubbed his chin. When he was paddling at work, he had indeed seen a rumor that after the supply of rubber in a certain country was cut off, he had to study how to use fig glue to extract rubber.

In fact, except for figs, most Euphorbiaceae can secrete latex, and some of them can also extract rubber, but it is certainly not as high-quality and good as rubber trees.

There are rubber trees in the metropolis, so naturally they don't care about this little thing in Qiufeng Mountain. However, Qiufeng Mountain mostly grows these figs as fruit trees. It's just that there was a severe drought this year and the production was severely reduced, so this is shameless. Find some opportunities in Hope City.

Gui Xingchao nodded to Lin Guiyao: "Qiufeng Mountain's situation is similar to ours before, but their reputation is not bad, the lord decides how."

Lin Guiyao shrugged his shoulders, Gui Xingchao meant to let him agree, but he still had a few questions to ask,

"How many people are there in Qiufeng Mountain, and where are you located?"

"We have 4000 people and are about 180 kilometers away from Hope City."

"180 kilometers? It's a bit far..." Lin Guiyao touched his chin.
"Let's do this, you have people bring the tree seeds here, and I will ask someone to hand over the water needed for transplanting to you later. As for the food, I will give you five tons first. After the tree seeds are alive and can indeed produce glue, I will send them to you every month. I will give you another five tons of grain."

"This..." Tang Dao opened his mouth wide.

"I know a little bit, but you are worth the price at present, I hope you can understand."

"No, no, I mean, there are too many, and those skinny trees are not worth much! All I need is... just a ton!"

Tang Dao said anxiously, originally what he said about doing business was nothing more than seeing that Hope City was in vain, so he had the idea of ​​giving it a try. Who knew that the young city lord on the opposite side actually gave him such a big surprise.

Not only was the high price of five tons offered at one time, but also every month in the future, which made him a little panicked for a while, and he didn't dare to accept this big pie.

"One ton? How many days is enough for your 4000 people? Even if we hope that the food in the city will be full and rich in nutrition, it will not be enough for you to survive until the next harvest, right?"

Lin Guiyao asked strangely. It was the first time he benefited someone, but he didn't accept it. He was a little embarrassed for a while.

"Cough! Let me interject." Gui Xingchao smiled.

"Vice-City Master Tang is an honest person. He knows that this year's drought has caused the price of food to rise, so he doesn't want to take advantage of us, right?"

"That's right, I, Tang Dao, hate villains who take advantage of others the most in my life! Uh, if it wasn't for this time, there is really no way..."

Lin Guiyao looked at Tang Dao's inner torment and realized that he was wrong. He was really honest.

In the current situation where everyone is in danger, this person can still take care of other people's ideas, which is comparable to Chen Elong's. No wonder he will be excluded by other lords like a fool.

"That's a coincidence. I, Lin Guiyao, have decided that the principle I will pursue in the future will be equal exchange. I will treat whoever is good to me, and whoever wants to bully me, then I will beat him back. So we Pretty much the same.”

Lin Guiyao waved his fist and continued: "The figs are worthless to you, but they are different to us in City of Hope. , this food is just a little bit of my heart."

"An alliance? This..." Tang Dao hesitated.

"Why, can't you be the master?"

Seeing Lin Guiyao's staring eyes, Tang Dao shivered and quickly patted his chest: "Well done, thank you, Mr. Lin, I'll go back and tell my brother the good news right away!"

After seeing Tang Dao follow his men out to collect water and food, Gui Xingchao suddenly clapped his hands and looked at Lin Guiyao approvingly.

"Village chief, yes!"

　Thank you [Pure Man] for your reward.
