Chapter 620: Restart the trade!!

~5 min read 880 words

Listening to the voice coming from his ear, Baideng's face stiffened.

He was also facing the strange existence in front of him for the first time, although he had the notes left by the previous Great Leaders for reference.

Which gave Baideng some psychological preparation...

But only when he negotiated with them face-to-face did Baideng understand how strong the other party's pressure was.

Between himself and the other party, it seemed as if there was a chasm.

This was a suppression at the life level; in an instant, Baideng's back was already soaked with cold sweat...

The reason why the Free Nation interrupted the trade.

The reason was actually very simple: obtaining advanced technology from the existence in front of him.

The price was simply too high!

So high that even the Free Nation, which was in its prime at the time, was unable to bear it!

Trading with the strange existence in front of him, the other party did not want US dollars, nor did they want any gold or silver.

They only wanted one thing—oil!

An amount of oil so high it was staggering!

Therefore, in the first year after the end of the Cold War with the Big Bear, the Free Nation decisively terminated this trade!

This was also the root cause of why the Free Nation valued oil resources so much!

This thing, in the eyes of the Free Nation, was a hard currency more valuable than gold!

The so-called "oil breeds mold" came from this.

In addition, this was also why the later Free Nation was often exposed to the lack of key technologies for advanced weapons.

For example, the Free Nation's F-22 fighter jet was exposed to the news of losing key engine data!

You know, if it was really developed by the Free Nation itself, how could there be a loss?

This was just a sequela of interrupting the trade...

Baideng knew very well that trading with the existence in front of him was just drinking poison to quench thirst, dealing with a tiger!

But now, the Dragon Nation had risen.

The Free Nation's technological development had fallen into a bottleneck.

If this continued, if the Dragon Nation took the throne of the Blue Planet hegemon.

Then everything would be too late.

Baideng knew better than anyone in his heart that the Free Nation had been forced into a dead end.

Placed before him, only this one road remained...

After a long while, Baideng gritted his teeth, as if making an incredibly difficult decision, and finally spoke slowly.

"This... Sir, we want to... restart the trade..."

"Oh?"

The blue phantom's voice raised several degrees.

Although it did not carry any emotion, one could hear the mockery in this voice.

"Back then, it was you Blue Planet humans who were treacherous and unilaterally interrupted the trade."

"Now, you want to restart the trade again?"

"This is simply not taking us seriously..."

Hearing this, Baideng lowered his head even lower.

On his forehead, fine cold sweat instantly broke out.

In this scene, he didn't know how to answer, so he could only shake his head and keep saying.

"Don't dare... don't dare..."

The blue phantom glanced at Baideng faintly, and a visible anger flashed in its huge eyes!

He had actually been played by a bug once!

If it weren't for the fact that he was trapped in this ghost place and urgently needed fuel.

Otherwise, he would have already pinched all the bugs on the Blue Planet to death!

Why would he waste so much breath?

The phantom took a deep breath and calmed his emotions.

Getting energy was the priority!

Although the energy on the Blue Planet was inferior, if the quantity was large enough, after some purification, it could still be used!

Wait until his spaceship was full of energy, and he could set sail again!

I will definitely fire a star-annihilation cannon directly and blow up this garbage planet full of despicable bugs!

The phantom thought secretly in his heart, but said calmly on the surface.

"If you want to restart the trade, it's not impossible..."

"It's just that the conditions of the trade must be changed!"

Hearing this, Baideng's eyes were immediately filled with joyful light.

He hurriedly said humbly: "Please speak!"

"On your Blue Planet, this fuel called oil, every year, you must give me one billion barrels!"

"Otherwise! Everything is off the table!"

The next second.

The smile on Baideng's face froze.

The whole person was instantly stunned on the spot.

One billion barrels?

What kind of concept is this?

You know, the Free Nation's own oil extraction volume is only about three billion a year in total!

This one billion barrels is equivalent to instantly taking away one-third of the Free Nation's annual extraction volume!

For just a technical support...

If they really traded under this condition, the Free Nation would instantly become stretched in the energy field from now on!

Waiting for the Free Nation, there is only one road, and that is to go to the Middle East to grab it!

In this way, the price is too high...

Thinking of this, Baideng hurriedly shook his head and argued: "Your Excellency... this number is simply a lion's opening of its mouth!" ===== CHAPTER 622 =====
