Rebirth in the end times: The whole family keeps a low profile
Chapter 97 Making a Deal with a Madman
Li Yimin felt his blood pressure soaring, and he vowed to destroy this evil force in his lifetime.
Tell me about your conditions.
When Di Rong heard that Li Yimin was finally willing to compromise, he took a puff of his cigar and blew all the smoke into Su Yun's face.
I didn't expect this person to be so cruel and shameless. Su Yun's face turned red from coughing.
Even Xiao Bin who was standing next to him couldn't help but clench his fist, wishing he could go up and punch this guy.
Di Rong listened to Su Yun's cough and felt very happy: "What do you have in your base? Oil? Medicine or food? Oh, by the way, didn't you set up a planting department recently? Well, it's quite interesting. We are also short of vegetables and fruits here."
Li Yimin thought that this guy wanted vegetables and fruits, and although he was reluctant, he could make the decision. Unexpectedly, Di Rong's words broke his cognition again.
Let's do this, Chief Li, 100 women of childbearing age, tons of gasoline, tons of rice, rifles and rounds of ammunition, and kilograms of vegetables per week. Return your son safe and sound.
What kind of conditions are these? It's simply one-sided robbery. Li Yimin thought that if there was no problem with his ears, then Di Rong was mentally ill.
Di Rong, I am not negotiating with you to ask for too much. Let's not talk about 100 pregnant women, which is absolutely impossible. Twenty tons of gasoline is cubic meters. Do you think we have that much gasoline in our base? You dare not even think about ten tons of rice. This is the life-saving ration for so many people. The most I can promise you is to give you some vegetables at one time and let my son come back safely.
In Li Yimin's heart, vegetables are very precious in everyone's mind nowadays. The base has not yet been able to supply vegetables, so giving Di Rong this convenience is already a special exception.
Di Rong said disdainfully: I think I know how much supplies the base has better than you do. What, do you think your son is not worth these things?
After saying that, Di Rong took out a list of supplies from the table and handed it to Li Yimin: Take a close look and see if the quantity of supplies in our base matches. I calculate it for you every day.
Li Yimin looked at the table on the white paper in front of him. It densely recorded the current inventory of the base. Even the latest record of the types and weights of vegetables received by the planting department was clearly written. Did this guy hack into their base's system? Wouldn't the entire base be transparent to him?
Su Yun guessed from Li Yimin's expression that the information was real. Thinking that someone like Liu Kuan was working with Di Rong, she suddenly felt that everything was so reasonable. It would not be difficult for a god-level computer student to break through the defense system of their base. Thinking of this, she broke out in a cold sweat. She had a premonition that the reason why the Illuminati was so powerful was that these guys had already completely controlled the base's network system.
He whispered in Li Yimin's ear: Chief, they have a computer hacker who has probably monitored the network system of our base for a long time.
Li Yimin was shocked. It turned out that they had become transparent in the eyes of others since some time ago.
What do you think? My conditions are not too extreme, they are completely within the tolerance of the base.
Su Yun felt that the base had no advantage in such a direct negotiation, so he said: We need to discuss it, can you give us some time?
Di Rong made a gesture to invite them to go ahead, walked to the office chair and sat down leisurely, smoking a cigar and watching them make the decision directly.
Su Yun thought he would give them an independent space, but he didn't expect this guy to listen to their discussion right in front of him. Xiong took out a pen from his backpack, turned over the back of the material list and started writing.
It was impossible to meet Di Rong's requirement of 100 women of childbearing age. As for the rest, the base could probably provide them with some supplies because relief supplies had just been allocated from above. But the days ahead would be even more difficult.
Su Yun felt guilty towards Li Yimin. Li Haoran was abducted while he was attending classes at their home. Logically, the Su family was the most responsible, and Li Yimin could not bear all the responsibility. Moreover, if he really took out these supplies as a bargaining chip, how would Li Yimin gain a foothold in the base in the future? He was such an honest person, and he didn't know how many people would criticize him for taking a large amount of supplies from the base to save his son.
Thinking that there were other supplies in his space, perhaps they could replace those requested by Di Rong. After all, food, guns and oil were the foundation of the base, so if they were used a little more, the less would be better.
Su Yun quickly read the transaction list on the back of the paper: 1,000 kilograms of vegetables, paid in full at one time. 2 tons of grain, 1 ton of diesel, 500 kilograms of dried meat, 500 kilograms of dried vegetables, an off-road vehicle, and an assault boat.
Li Yimin thought it was acceptable, but he didn't know whether Di Rong could accept it.
Su Yun tried her best to write more varieties of items and smaller quantities. When the base ran out of these supplies, she would find a way to resupply the base later.
Di Rong took the list written by Su Yun and saw the beautiful and neat handwriting: Su Yun, do you think I'm doing charity and I can give you a 10% discount? Don't you think you're ridiculous?
Su Yun looked into his eyes and said: The current prices are not comparable to those in the past, so don't go too far.
Di Rong himself did not think that they would accept the demands he put forward. After all, exaggerating the bargaining chips is a basic skill of a negotiator. If he wants one point of something, he will ask for ten points. No matter how the opponent bargains, he can always get it above his expectations.
Di Rong also stared into Su Yun's eyes and raised a smile with an ambiguous meaning: If you say so, then I will take a step back and double the list you proposed. That should be enough to give you face.
Su Yun looked at Li Yimin and Xiao Bin. They were frowning and thinking. Su Yun couldn't care less about all that. He was really worried that this lunatic Di Rong would change his mind and add some unreasonable conditions.
Su Yun: Okay, we will deliver it within three days. During these three days, you have to ensure the personal safety of Chief Li’s son.
Li Yimin and Xiao Bin breathed a sigh of relief. They had originally agreed, but Su Yun said it first, so they would feel less guilty towards the base.
Di Rong raised his head and turned his neck, and said shockingly: That is not necessarily guaranteed. You don’t know, my subordinates do not know the seriousness of the situation. Sometimes they mistakenly inject viruses into people’s bodies as nutrient solution, causing people to be infected with rabies. Sometimes it is possible that some pork is accidentally added into the food to supplement the nutrition.
Li Yimin: What do you mean?
I don't mean anything. I just want to remind you that if you can leave someone to take care of you, you won't have this worry, right? Don't you think so, old classmates?
Di Rong looked at Su Yun while speaking, clearly hinting that Su Yun should stay to take care of Li Haoran, so that there would be two hostages in Di Rong's hands, and they did not believe that Di Rong would be so kind. But if they reflected on it, if an adult stayed to take care of Li Haoran, it would indeed make Li Yimin and Zhao Min feel more at ease. It is said that cannibalism is the norm for members of the Illuminati, and if there is really an unknown virus injected into Li Haoran's body, the consequences are unimaginable.
Time seemed to be frozen, and everyone was doing calculations in their minds.
Su Yun laughed in anger: Don’t you feel despicable for making things difficult for a child in this way?
Di Rong: I am in trouble for the child or you, don't you know? You decide whether to keep him or not, but I can assure you that I will hand him over to you alive and kicking. I will never break my promise.
Thinking of Di Rong's methods back then, after so many years, she estimated that his behavior would be more extreme than she had imagined. She didn't dare to bet on which situation Di Rong was talking about. This man never spoke sincerely, and she couldn't afford to take the risk.
Okay, I'll stay and I want to eat and live with Li Haoran.
What? Are you worried that I might do something bad to you or are you really on guard against me?
Su Yun: Of course.
Di Rong spread his hands: Ok, I promise you, but you don’t have to worry, as an old classmate, I will definitely treat you well.
Li Yimin and Xiao Bin were sent back by Liu Kuan. The team anxiously waiting on the edge of the cliff panicked when they saw only two people coming out. They surrounded them and asked questions. After learning about the other party's unreasonable demands and the unknown bomb hidden in the base, they left a car of people on standby to monitor every move here, and the others followed the car back.
