Volume 2: Why did we meet before? Chapter 4: Worth it
Ye Xuan felt that the atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed, as if a storm was about to break out.
His eyes were condensed, and he looked at the people in front of him steadily, waiting for the other party's next action.
Lao Wang looked at him without any hint of timidity, and so did the others behind him.
‘Plop~’
Everyone knelt down neatly on the ground, their movements were uniform, and they made a loud noise without any noise at all.
Ye Xuan was from a high position and could clearly see the actions of each of them.
Everyone kneeling on the ground looked at Ye Xuan with warm and admiring eyes.
It seemed that the ground was not flat enough or there were pebbles. Several of them were extremely pale, but they still looked up at Ye Xuan fiercely.
"Hero! The hope of mankind lies in your hands, please."
Ye Xuan:......
Damn, it’s so stressful!
At this time, the nearby villagers heard the noise and turned their attention, including Wang Jing and Xuan Jie.
Damn, the pressure is even greater!
Ye Xuan looked at Lao Wang. There was no shame or embarrassment on his face, but only gratitude.
"Is it worth it?"
"worth!"
But I’m not worth it!
Ye Xuan is about to cry but has no tears. How much will he lose on this business if you come here all of a sudden?
I have heard for a long time that some research institutes will do anything to study zombies, but I didn't expect that I would encounter them today.
He saw more and more people gathering around him, so he reached out and pulled Lao Wang up.
"You get up first. Let's talk in another place. Why are you so excited? It's not that you won't sell it. At most, you just ask for a higher price."
Lao Wang was already dusting his knees, but when he heard the second half of Ye Xuan's words, he almost knelt down again.
The two found a new place, and then began the process of staring at each other.
Let's talk about business. Ye Xuan has never done it before, so he doesn't know what to do in the first step.
He only knows how to identify profiteers and how to kill them.
As luck would have it, Wang Xian didn't have any experience in business negotiation either.
In the first half of his life, he spent every day either in the research institute or at home with his family.
After thinking for a long time, Ye Xuan started the first round of attack.
"Stop being stunned and tell me what you can give."
"Oh, we have a hundred bottles of genetic fluid, ten kilograms of virus immunity agent type 1, and..."
This Lao Wang was also a down-to-earth person, and he quickly told them all the supplies they had brought with them.
After he was done, he saw that Ye Xuan was still not satisfied, so he opened his mouth and told the conditions promised by the senior management.
Ye Xuan frowned after listening to the other party's quotation.
This price...
It cannot be said that it is unfair. On the contrary, Ye Xuan can feel the sincerity of the other party from inside.
But it still doesn't meet Ye Xuan's needs.
For example, let’s take the genetic fluid.
The survival rate of this thing is one in ten.
One hundred potions can be exchanged for about ten mutants.
In the end of the world, even if they know the survival rate of this thing, there are still many people willing to take a gamble.
Maybe other forces will be happy when they get it.
But for Ye Xuan, it’s not worth it!
A mere ten mutants were not worth Ye Xuan's life for a hundred survivors.
Even though Ye Xuan requires his employees to work overtime every day, he actually still cares about the lives of his men.
After all, these are labor forces!
Work hard without complaining, and work as a labor force like a cow or a horse!
Every time someone dies, Ye Dashan's heart aches!
As for the virus immunity drug type 1... in Ye Xuan's eyes, it is not as valuable as a bottle of Coke.
Seeing that Ye Xuan still looked dissatisfied, Wang Xian helplessly spread his hands, saying that he only had so much.
How about I kneel down for you again?
Ye Xuan grabbed Lao Wang, who was half shorter than before, and asked:
"Do you have any genetic medicines with a higher success rate?"
"No more. It is under development. The previous spider eggs have given us a lot of inspiration. It is estimated that the results will be available in one or two months."
Two months?
"It's not that we can't wait. How about you come back in two months? Anyway, you don't have the energy to study this corpse now."
Lao Wang touched his bald head.
"Energy is something that is always available."
Ye Xuan looked at the other party's shining bald head, which vaguely reflected his handsome appearance.
You can squeeze out energy, but you can't squeeze out genetic potions.
This negotiation reached a deadlock for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Lao Wang hesitated for a moment, and then said:
"Are you sure you only want genetic medicine?"
Ye Xuan nodded.
"As you can see, the infrastructure here is quite complete. What is lacking are the high-end and sophisticated things."
Lao Wang turned his head and looked at the surrounding ruins.
Infrastructure? Complete?
"Actually, it's not impossible."
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Ye Xuan knew that there were some words that the other party would not be able to say next, and he needed to push them.
"Old Wang, don't be joking. You are the first group of research institutes established after the end of the world. If you can't even create something, how can anyone else create it?"
Lao Wang muttered and said:
"We...are not the first batch either. There is a research institute that is a little earlier than us."
Ye Xuan sensed the smell of secret information and quickly asked.
Unfortunately, no matter how he pressed, Lao Wang insisted that this was an internal secret and refused to reveal any more information.
"Anyway, if it's there, you might be able to find the genetic medicine you want."
Ye Xuan looked at the honest man in front of him playfully.
"perhaps?"
This honest man is quite cute when he is cheating.
Lao Wang said helplessly:
"We rarely communicate. We only know that the other party's progress is ahead of ours, but we don't know how much ahead."
Ye Xuan suddenly became interested in this research institute, and not just for the genetic medicines in it.
"So you can get the genetic medicine I want from them? For a short period of time, let alone a few months."
In fact, Ye Xuan also knows the answer to this question without the other party answering.
"In the short term... it can't be done. They are almost isolated from the world. If you want to get it, you have to go to their research institute. It will be more troublesome..."
"I'll add money!"
Ye Xuan looked at the other party and made a rich declaration.
"No, it's almost close to the Antarctic over there, you know what I mean."
You know, it's far away, and the power of human gatherings can't reach there.
Can't you just say that you have no ability?
"Give me the specific location and pass, and I can get it myself."
Lao Wang seemed to see the hope of success, but he began to hesitate.
Ye Xuan smiled, then opened the door behind him, and then led Lao Wang into the heavily guarded room.
Inside the door is the goal of their trip - the headless corpse of 'Dazhi Huizhi'.
He took out a black crystal the size of a fingernail from his pocket, placed it at the corpse's throat, and then stabbed it in with chopsticks.
Immediately, the headless corpse began to squirm, and the flesh and blood on the neck began to intertwine, as if it was about to grow a new head.
Perhaps it was stimulated by the black crystal, and an inexplicable atmosphere suddenly filled the room.
Lao Wang was confused for a while, then ran out screaming.
Ye Xuan saw the right moment, slashed hard, and shaved off the squirming flesh.
Then, he continued to break 'it's limbs, forcing 'it' to use energy to repair its limbs instead of its head.
This is something he usually does, and it has completely become his instinct.
Although I usually just sprinkle some water and feed some diluted liquid.
But today we have a distinguished guest, and we have to feed the thirsty one. No matter what, we have to let our ‘silly baby’ behave well, right?
After dozens of minutes of broken bones and repairs, the body returned to its original appearance.
And Ye Xuan's head gradually became clearer, or he was not affected much in the first place.
"Oh, it really only has a body, so it can't be as outrageous as a complete one?"
Ye Xuan looked at the headless corpse in front of him and licked his tongue, with a trace of reluctance in his eyes.
I'm going to part with it today.
After all, I had been chopping up this corpse for several months, so I had some feelings for it.
It's a pity that my own laboratory has not been established, otherwise, how could the good things in my hands be studied by others?
Ye Xuan turned his head and looked outside the door. Lao Wang was looking into the room with a pale face.
"This zombie's ability has been released. There is no need to be afraid anymore. You can get closer and take a look."
After hearing Ye Xuan's words, Lao Wang showed a reluctant smile and walked in slowly.
He was really scared by this ability before. After all, researchers rely on their brains to make a living.
As for Ye Xuan’s dozens of minutes of dismemberment...
After the apocalypse, which researcher has not dealt with zombies?
Lao Wang himself has dissected countless zombies.
I wasn't scared... I guess.
Lao Wang kept looking at the headless corpse in front of him.
Ye Xuan kept looking at him.
"You should have felt the power just now. Even if you have never faced that kind of power before, you can still distinguish it."
"One message and one pass, this is yours, I will handle the rest myself."
"You can think about it carefully and give me an answer tomorrow."
After watching Lao Wang leave, Xuan Jie came to Ye Xuan.
The incident this time was quite big, and she, who likes to watch the excitement, would not let it go.
She had been following him since he knelt down before, so she could clearly hear the conversation between the two.
"Is it worth it? I heard that the terms they offered are very generous."
Excluding the useless potions, the other party also proposed other good things.
Such as guns and ammunition.
Ye Xuan had worked so hard to get two guns from Li Mengmen before, which made him happy for a long time.
The guns and ammunition that the institute can provide this time are enough for Ye Xuan to arm a team.
Now just because of Ye Xuan's words, all of this may disappear.
