934 Their Plan Is Ruined (1/2)

”What? You want to stop all trade with us? Why? I'm afraid your people can't live a good life without our products,” Wei Haichao was a little surprised at first, then wore a sullen look. Subsequently, his last sentence was said with a threatening tone.

He wasn't expecting Sea City Base people to stiffen their spine this time. Before, Huaxia Base people threatened them with their most advanced weapons every time they tried to stop the trade. If Sea City Base refused to complete the deals, Huaxia Base would attack mercilessly.

A few years ago, Sea City Base was weak and over-populated. The lightning-powered Wu Chengyue had emerged from the base, but his superpower was upgrading slowly. The base still relied on weapons for the most part.

During the past two years, Sea City Base people had great dissatisfaction with the unequal trade between Sea City Base and Huaxia Base. After every negotiation, Huaxia Base slowly made a step backward. After all, Sea City Base was growing stronger and stronger.

Xiao Yunlong gave a scornful cold smile and said, ”We can live a good life even without making trades with you. You really don't need to worry about us.”

'We're gonna teach you Huaxia people a lesson this time, or you might think that we're afraid of you. How dare you play that dirty trick in our place? Are we all dead? You want the technology, and you plan to kidnap our scientists because you can't get it? That'd only happen in your dreams!' he thought.

Wei Haichao and Hou Guozhong both pulled a long face. The former stared at Xiao Yunlong and said, ”What do you mean? We've been working together all this time. Now you're going to stop trading with us. Don't you need to give us a reason?”

Xiao Yunlong gave Zou Shihui a glance, then turned back and responded, ”Reason? Oh, simple. Because we can now produce technologically advanced products as well. We won't be needing your help anymore. After all, there would be a high price to pay if we want to use your products. It's not cost-efficient, is it?”

Wei Haichao narrowed his eyes and said with disbelief, ”You made your own? How long can your products last? Are they as good as ours?”

After saying that, he snorted with laughter. He doubted the abilities of the technicians in Sea City Base. Huaxia Base had the best technicians in the country. Sea City Base might be able to find some technicians of their own, but how could they possibly make the products as good as Huaxia Base's?

Sensing the tense atmosphere between Sea City Base and Huaxia Base, Sky Fire Base and Mongols Base people stayed calmed while watching the show.

They were surprised that Sea City Base had finally demanded to stop trading with Huaxia Base. After all, no base in the country dared to displease Huaxia Base openly. It was the strongest base, after all, strong and richly populated.

As Sea City Base had picked the side against Huaxia Base openly, it would certainly become a target of the latter. Huaxia Base would find all sorts of excuses to bring Sea City Base down.

In fact, Huaxia Base already had that intention recently; it was just not obvious yet. It was because Sea City Base had a level-eight lightning-power possessor, who was even stronger than the fire-powered Si Kongchen.

Besides, they had heard that quite a lot of technicians who hadn't been living an ideal life in Huaxia Base were having their eyes on Sea City Base.

”Our products may not be as good as yours, but they're good enough for us. We don't have much to ask for. Before, we couldn't make those products by ourselves, so we worked with you. Now, since we have grown that capability, we surely don't need to purchase things from you again,” Xiao Yunlong said with a faint smile.

Seeing the proud smile on Xiao Yunlong's face, Wei Haichao and Hou Guozhong sneered in their heads. When their Plan B worked, Huaxia Base would never need to worry about food again, because they would have the people who developed the soil remedy working for them. By that time, Sea City Base would have no power to threaten them, and they would be able to suppress Sea City Base again.
