I am the barbarian king

Chapter 69 Negotiations

"No matter what kind of cooperation method, it is always a win-win goal. We'd better talk about our respective needs first..."

Zhang Fan said leisurely: "To show my sincerity, let me say mine first. I need Li Yihui's active skill: Cobweb Entangling, which can help me deal with a mutant zombie at a time, which is equivalent to a crystal nucleus..."

Yuan Jian hadn't recovered yet, and his status was not online, so Xu Sulan stepped forward consciously, and said, "We need your force here, while you clean up the mutant zombies, help us search and rescue survivors... "

"Ha ha!"

Zhang Fan laughed, and said, "Reorganize the language and say what you need?"

Xu Sulan was a little embarrassed, so she followed Yuan Jian's train of thought and came here tentatively, but was pushed back by Zhang Fan, which made her somewhat at a loss as to how to take over.

Seeing that she was silent, Zhang Fan said to himself: "What you need is food for survival. Most of the teachers' cafeteria is cooked food, and the area selling snacks only takes up a small area. The twenty or so of you only eat. Snacks, not to mention other food, pure water alone, I'm afraid it's not enough, right?"

He knows exactly how many supplies there are in the teacher's cafeteria. Most of them are rice flour and other ingredients that need to be processed. There are not many ready-to-eat ones. Only the small area at the entrance of the restaurant is non-staple food.

These words made several people feel awkward. To be honest, it was because Li Yihui said that there was not much drinking water in the teacher's cafeteria. That's why they wanted to cooperate with Zhang Fan. They just wanted to go further afield to obtain resources. .

Zhang Fan said with a smile: "For me, Li Yihui's ability can only provide me with a crystal nucleus, which is better than nothing..."

Seeing that he also had the idea of ​​belittling the role of Li Yihui's abilities, Bai Shuai became anxious, and hurriedly said: "No, the crystal core can provide experience points and improve the level of the ability user. How could it be useless? For you who value strength very much People, crystal nuclei are absolutely very important..."

Zhang Fan seemed very comfortable, not in a hurry, and said calmly: "Important or not, it depends on what you compare it with, compared with your life, it doesn't matter..."

He is not stupid, he knew that he would definitely have the upper hand in this negotiation, so he took his time and waited for the opponent to strike first.

"No, in your opinion, our lives are not important, your own strength is more important..." Bai Shuai quickly retorted.

Zhang Fan shrugged, and said leisurely: "Yes, yes, yes, you are right, so what?"

"I can hunt mutant zombies myself, and without Li Yihui's help, I can hunt more. With him, it's just icing on the cake, killing one more every day."

"But what about you, how many days can the little water in the cafeteria last, three days? Or five days?!"

At this time, Yuan Jian also gradually recovered, stopped Bai Shuai who was still stubbornly arguing, shook his head at him, then looked at Zhang Fan, and said with a serious expression:
"Zhang Fan, I admit that I underestimated you before, but I didn't expect you to be so extraordinary..."

"Ha ha!"

Zhang Fan sneered, and said, "You didn't expect me to be so easy to fool, did you?!"

As he said that, he raised his eyebrows and gestured to Li Yihui with his eyes, as if to say, isn't this guy just fooled by you into becoming the captain of the Virgin Mary? !
Yuan Jian didn't refute, and said directly: "Zhang Fan, let's not talk about these things for now, let's get back to the topic, cooperation, we must satisfy both parties, if you ask too much, we can't agree..."

"Of course, during the negotiation process, we will definitely try our best to lean on your side. After all, as you said, the importance of our two needs is different. We are here to survive, and you are here to improve your strength..."

Seeing that he was finally willing to tell the truth, Zhang Fan also put away his playful smile, nodded, and said, "Well, let's talk about it, what exactly do you want to do..."

Yuan Jian nodded and said seriously: "Then let me tell you about what we discussed yesterday..."

"First of all, to express our sincerity, I would like to announce to you the remaining materials in the teacher's cafeteria..."

"All kinds of food can basically last for about half a month to a month, but the water is only enough for about ten days, and this includes other drinks..."

"If we don't have enough food, let's occupy the cafeteria. Even if we light a fire to cook, we can still cook for a while, but we can't last long without water. Now, there is no tap water, so we can only rely on bottled water to replenish..."

Yuan Jian paused for a moment, and then said: "Now we have mainly determined two things that must be done..."

"The first thing is to find supplies, water and food, so I want to cooperate with you to escort our people to find and bring back these things..."

Zhang Fan was not in a hurry to discuss how to escort, but asked, "What about the second thing?"

"The second thing is to recover the school. At least a relatively safe area must be established so that everyone is not confined to the building. Only in this way can we do more things..."

"Of course, it's unrealistic to recover the whole school at once. Our idea is to start from the surrounding area, clean up all the zombies in all the buildings at the west end of the main road, and then build a line of defense with obstacles along the main road. , set this as the first safe zone!"

After hearing this, Zhang Fan looked at him twice.

In the last life, on the tenth day of the end of the world, Chang Xu changed his face and killed several core members of the survivors, including Li Yihui and Yuan Jian. Then, he began to force everyone to move various obstacles to build a defense line on the main road.

Now it seems that this method may have been proposed by Yuan Jian and Chang Xu at the time, but I don't know why that guy didn't keep Yuan Jian, who claimed to be a military adviser, but was the first to kill him after changing his face.

Having said that, Yuan Jian didn't want to write too much, and said directly: "So, this transaction is divided into two types. The first type is the escort when we trade with you to pick up food. The real price is that you escort us twice a day. Count it as one of Li Yihui's abilities..."

"You are dishonest!"

Zhang Fan curled his lips and said, "Escorting once counts as an ability. Don't say that you have to eat two meals a day. I don't care how many meals you eat. I won't get more for one trip?"

From this point of view, it is a long-term sale, because the more survivors, the more supplies they will need. After all, they have to eat every day, so Zhang Fan did not give too harsh a price, but chose a price that can achieve long-term and stable development.

Yuan Jian frowned. The price was lower than what they thought, so he pulled the other people together and lowered their heads for a while to discuss.

Zhang Fan pricked up his ears, trying to listen.

I vaguely heard something like "Xiaohui, I'm going to make you suffer again!" "Xiaohui, I've wronged you this time!" "You may have to wait a long time to upgrade your ability level."

After a while, after they finished talking, Yuan Jian raised his head, nodded and said, "Yes, escorts are counted on a per-day basis, not on a daily basis, one change at a time..."

Seeing his straightforwardness, Zhang Fan felt a little uncomfortable. He pondered for two seconds and said, "Then let's make an agreement in advance. Even if it's per order, I will escort you once a day at most. If there are too many escorts..."

After finishing speaking, he was still not at ease, and said cautiously: "Let me say first, all my deals with you are based on the fact that I think Li Yihui can pay back, don't stay with me for a month or two, just Li Yihui's spider silk is entangled, I can lend him up to 20 times, don't ask for more, and this guy owes me three times now..."

He was still afraid that Li Yihui would not pay, what if Li Yihui owed him tens of hundreds of times and died prematurely? !
After Li Yihui heard this, his emotions were very complicated. His own spider thread was entangled, and he even asked others to lend him for use. At most 20 times, don't worry about it...
