The reception banquet was arranged in the restaurant on the space station. There is also a VIP room in the restaurant, which is somewhat similar to the restaurant on the former Anvil Company's Songqing spacecraft. Although the place is not big, the decoration is very elegant, just like the splendid exhibition hall.
In the hall, the crystal glass on the wall changes at any time to a picture of green water and green mountains, which has a peaceful beauty for people who often travel in the universe.
The exquisite flowing square table is also filled with delicacies, most of which are local specialties on Qiming 1. The typical one is the fillet of halibut. This special fish produced in the Zhifan galaxy is rich in nutrients and melts in your mouth. It is a holy fish.
One of the most popular delicacies among the rich in Fai Federation.
Of course, when transporting ingredients from Zhifan to the federal territory, it is estimated that the value of the ingredients themselves is far from enough to cover the transportation energy consumption. You can also imagine what kind of high price this thing can fetch in the Shenghui Federation. Anyway, according to Daiyi
The answer was an understatement, a plate of cod fillet was worth four figures of pentagrams, it was so expensive that Dinmon could hardly imagine it.
Facing the table full of dishes, Dai Yi was not interested in touching the knife and fork, because according to the previous contact, the person sitting on the table to talk to her should not be Rentu. Rentu was not qualified to be on an equal footing with her. Really qualified.
The person who qualified was the real owner - Huang Long, the deputy commander of the Sirius Corps.
Rentu's explanation for this seems a bit far-fetched: "Brother Long flew to other galaxies because he temporarily took over an urgent mission from the head of the regiment. It is estimated that he will not return until a week later. Before leaving, he specially told me to receive Miss Dai well.
"
This means that the plenipotentiary Tu negotiated with Dai Yi.
At this moment, the slight smile on Dai Yi's face disappeared, but her good cultivation prevented her from showing her dissatisfaction. She just stretched out a slender jade finger and gently tapped the cup in front of her.
Thoughtful:
"Captain, I heard that Nightmare sold the reagent to Captain Huang for 920,000 star coins."
Rentu smiled and said: "Miss Dai, actually only after Brother Long bought it did he find out that Nightmare had stolen that thing from the Green Arrow Corps, and we spent far more than that. To be precise, it was 982,100 stars.
coins, but that’s a small change, it’s completely negligible, the Green Arrow Corps is not short of this little money.”
His answer can be said to be extremely strong, because he knew that Dai Yi was here to intercede for Green Arrow, but he directly replied that Green Arrow had no shortage of money, making it clear that Green Arrow's plan to repurchase it at a high price would not work.
Dai Yi frowned slightly: "Captain, in fact, my visit this time has nothing to do with the Green Arrow Corps. Our Dai family just hopes that your Corps can resell this reagent. As for the price, it's easy to say, within 2 million, I
You can pay now.”
It has nothing to do with the Green Arrow? I believe you!
Rentu thought so in his heart, but he never dared to say it. His face was still filled with a respectful smile: "Miss Dai, you are joking. If you can come to Venus in person, you are already a member of our Sirius Corps."
It's an honor, how can we be qualified to offer a price to the Dai family? It doesn't make sense."
Dai Yi suddenly raised his head and stared at him with a pair of willow eyes: "Captain, I come here with sincerity."
Rentu was a little frightened by her glare. The Dai family was not a top behemoth in the Shenghui Federation, but it was not something that the outer space forces dared to provoke. It was just like a federal citizen to an interstellar refugee.
There is a world of difference, it would be very easy to deal with you.
"I absolutely believe it!" Rentu straightened his chest.
Dai Yi was a little impatient: "Let's put it this way, what do I need to do before you are willing to transfer the reagent to me?"
"Miss Dai, you are joking again. We must not cause you any trouble." Rentu was still smiling, but his tone had changed. He said in deep thought: "Actually, there is a little boy in our corps.
A small nuisance."
Dai Yi said: "What's the trouble? Tell me."
Rentu pointed to a plate on the table and said: "Miss Dai, you have also seen it. For example, this spiny sturgeon fillet is very popular in the Federation, and it is only produced in the Zhifan galaxy. Our Sirius transport capacity
It is very limited in itself. Every time we transport to the space station at the border, the federal tax on us is really too high. I wonder if Miss Dai can be kind and lower the tax slightly?"
When he made this request, Ding Meng on the side basically understood the truth of the matter. The Sirius Corps had already identified the relationship between Green Arrow and the Dai family, and the Dai family had a great influence in the federal tax system.
With no right to speak, the Sirius Corps used reagents as a threat in an attempt to reduce taxes and save costs to enhance the Corps' financial resources.
However, even an outsider like Ding Meng knew this request, and Dai Yi would never agree to it. This was not a matter of patronage, but a matter of huge interests.
Dai Yi suddenly smiled. Her smile was very distinctive. Her lips did not open, but the corners of her mouth curved into an arc. It gave people the impression that this woman was both shrewd and proud, gentle and weird. You just couldn't guess her anyway.
What are you planning?
"Captain, do you think this small bottle of reagent is worth the price?" Dai Yi asked with a smile.
Rentu put away his smile at this time and said sternly: "I heard that this reagent is the latest developed sample. It can save at least several years of time from the junior war master to the intermediate war master. Miss Dai, what do you think of it?
Is it worth the price?”
This generation Yi and Ding Meng were both stunned. This was something they had never thought of beforehand. After all, Bai Le didn't know the specific situation of the reagents. When the Green Arrow Corps took over the mission, they only knew how to deliver the reagents from Blue Pole Star City.
When we arrived at Dream Star City, the mission was so simple, but in the end, there was such a big boss among them.
Everyone is a source of energy, so they naturally know how much it costs to move from one level to another. Not only that such a reagent is obtained by a warrior-level character, but that once the formula is put into production, its value is immeasurable.
But Dai Yi was still smiling: "I don't know how valuable it is. I only know one thing. This reagent should not be the reason for your regiment to make demands on me."
This point cannot be refuted by Rentu. You bought this thing from Nightmare and it came from a shady background. Now you have to make unreasonable demands. Do you think it is too valuable? Or do you think the Dai family is easy to bully?
"Miss Dai, I'm very sorry for this." Rentu spread his hands helplessly and said in a complicated tone, "You are a person of status, unlike us rough old men. None of our brothers have citizenship.
Living in this outer space all day long is a life of licking blood. If you eat today's meal, you may not have the next meal. The reagents are indeed very important to our Sirius Corps. Miss Dai is not willing to show off her noble hand.
It doesn’t matter, anyway, not only the Green Arrow Corps is interested in buying this thing back, but also the Raid Mercenary Group. To be honest, Brother Long is in contact with Raid when he goes out this time..."
When he mentioned the words "Assault Mercenary Group", Ding Meng's right eye couldn't help but twitch. No wonder he always felt something was wrong. It turned out that he had met an "old acquaintance". The experience in the Black Gold Base made him have no idea about the Assault Corps.
I have a good impression, but I didn't expect that this "reagent" incident would involve dealing with the raiding mercenary group again.
Rentu's answer obviously disrupted Dai Yi's rhythm. Now she at least knew one reason. The reason why Green Arrow offered 1.4 million star coins was not because Sirius didn't give face, but because the Sirius Corps didn't value this money at all. What they wanted
The thing is bigger, so I reject it.
However, the repurchase price cannot exceed 2 million star coins. This is not a question of money, but a question of "degree". Everything must have a degree. If it goes too far, it will be boring.
Dai Yi obviously did not believe that the Assault Corps would offer a higher price: "I would like to ask, how much does the Assault Corps plan to offer?"
Rentu smiled again: "To be fair to Miss Dai, the Assault Corps intends to cooperate with us. Although their overall strength is not that good, their transportation capacity is very strong, which can make up for our transportation capacity to a large extent."
The forces of the corps in outer space are very unique. The Sirius Corps has always been rich and self-sufficient; the Assault Corps has strong transportation capacity and is densely populated with starships; the Green Arrow Corps has many hunters and is very famous; the Dragon Slayer Corps has a wide range of soldiers and a large number of experts; extremely
The Thief Corps is notorious for committing all kinds of evil... These five corps can be said to be the five most mainstream families in the Shenghui Federation's outer space star field, but they do not obey anyone and seldom interact with each other. Any two families can "cooperate"
", which is quite rare.
So it turned out that Dai Yi gradually felt that this matter was getting more and more difficult, but she couldn't just let it go, so she said lightly: "In that case, the three of us can sit down and talk slowly. The conditions are all right."
It was negotiated, what do you think, Captain?"
"This..." Ren Tu didn't expect her to come suddenly. According to Huang Long's prior idea, Dai Yi should just retreat in the face of difficulties, and Ren Tu would send her back with a gift. In this way, he could get rid of the green
The arrow's request does not offend the Dai family, so it can be said to be the best of both worlds.
But now the Dai family has also proposed a tripartite negotiation. Not to mention that Rentu doesn’t have the guts to refuse, even the entire Tianlang Corps cannot refuse, because this is a legitimate request and they are not using the name of the Dai family to suppress others.
Seeing the hesitation on Rentu's face, Dai Yi stared at him again: "Captain Rentu, do your regiment have any difficulties with this?"
"No, no!" Rentu quickly smiled, "If Miss Dai comes to talk sincerely, we will definitely welcome it, but Brother Long may not come back for five or six days, and I'm worried that Miss Dai can't afford to wait.
"
Dai Yi smiled: "I lack everything except time."
Ren Tu was at his wits end now: "In that case, let me arrange a boat to send Miss Dai and Brother Ding to Feixing City."
Dai Yidao: "That's what I had in mind. I've long heard that Feixing City is a masterpiece of your regiment. I'd like to visit it this time."
