Chapter 221 Investigation of the South Wind
"Yes, you are right." Li Chengdong sighed and nodded with a complicated expression. However, it was impossible for their Nanfeng to have these things.
What new yeasts, new decomposers, all require biotechnology!
From this small conversation, the two sides got the information they wanted.
For the decision-making level of Yunhai, it is almost certain that these people are not disguised as brain-controlled insects. Because of the unique physiological structure of brain-controlled insects, they will be directly poisoned after drinking coffee. Moreover, the other party has never encountered such a strange creature, so they mistakenly believe that planting coffee trees is for pure entertainment...
"The people in Lanmeng don't have a good understanding of Yanghe... From their tone, they seem to be a little short of food?"
Ding Yuan heard their conversation from the headphones and shook his head, "Forget it, as long as the other party is a serious human, there is no problem with it, just using drugs to communicate. You haven't found any suspicious signs, right?"
"No." All observers shook their heads.
One of them said: "It's just that their performance is a little too curious. Everyone is curiously looking at our various buildings and observing our Yunhai."
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "It is normal to be curious. After all, our shelter is more than twenty times larger than theirs! We may think that the Yunhai is too small and too crowded, but for the people of the Nanfeng, it is simply outrageous. In the current environment, large means safety."
Yes, for the Nanfeng, the Yunhai is already an existence that needs to be looked upward. Whether in terms of size, technology, or population size, it is a behemoth that needs to be looked upward.
The Nanfenghao is only 10,000 people, which is indeed a bit pitiful...
Of course, the diplomats of the Nanfeng also learned the information they wanted to have a certain extent.
The diplomat Li Chengdong sighed secretly in his heart, because senior officials of the Yunhai were worried about meat production, which showed that they had a surplus of food.
Only with the extra grain can we raise some animals.
This is definitely a huge good news!
Think about it, if two shelters meet together and both sides are in a food crisis, then in order to survive, the biggest possibility is to start a war directly.
Fortunately, this situation did not really happen. The other party had surplus food, but there was not enough meat, so there was no big problem...
On the contrary, Nanfenghao's planting industry... is not very good.
The population of 10,000 is too small, and even basic industries cannot be maintained.
The original politician family lives in the Nanfeng family, with hundreds of people in one family, plus more than 2,000 soldiers in total, almost half of the population is not engaged in production.
In this case, after the soilless cultivation medium is used up, there is no way to produce it again, and you can only rely on serious traditional agriculture.
Traditional agriculture has not been able to resist risks. In the past year, a sudden blight disease has caused a reduction in grain production. If it weren’t for the granary, it would have caused famine.
Therefore, their current food supply is barely in a state of equilibrium, and it is difficult to squeeze out more food to store. If this continues, if there is a natural disaster again, even if water enters the granary, a great famine will occur!
Li Chengdong thought in his heart: "As long as the Yunhai can give us 10,000 people and provide us with three months of food, there will be a certain guarantee. Ten thousand people and three months of food rations are only one-fifty of the Yunhai reserved grain. For the senior management of the Yunhai, it is completely a negotiable content."
Of course, he knew that things were definitely not that simple, and he did not make any requests directly.
Relying on the other party means losing independence.
Even if you sell yourself, you have to find a way to sell it at a good price instead of selling it at a low price. When it is time to get along with friendship, when it is time to talk about interests, this is what a qualified politician should do.
...
In this way, the two sides kept testing and mediating. It was not until the afternoon of this day that the diplomatic team of more than 20 people found a place to live and started serious internal talks with the senior management of the Yunhai, commercial trade, military cooperation, personnel exchanges, etc.
Similarly, some diplomats and superpowers from the Yunhai were also traveling to the Nanfeng to inspect the situation there and whether there is a potential crisis...
Even if the other party has only a population of more than 10,000, it still needs to be taken seriously. You must understand how the other party is living, how strong it is, and how many benefits can Yunhai get through communication.
Lu Yiming has also followed these days and participated in the inspection of the Nanfeng. His mental possession ability can easily invade the Nanfeng Internet and investigate security issues.
Well, the security issues were not found, but the internal corruption of this small refuge is quite serious.
Through his thoughts, he observed several "multi-person sports" and even an old man with a fat face, smelting copper there... It really made people feel a little disgusting.
Of course, there is no need to say much about this issue. Lu Yiming always felt that he had returned to the feudal era.
It was not until he returned to the Yunhai that he gave a long sigh, "Damn, what the hell is this! There are actually some copper smelting people."
The other diplomats were also not satisfied with the internal work of the Nanfeng.
However, since it is the other party's internal affairs, he has no interest in meddling in other people's business.
"Everyone, welcome to return. The negotiations these days have not gone well... I have been repeating several topics until I was repeating several topics. The other party wanted to buy our food, but was not willing to bleed heavily. They were only willing to trade with some raw materials such as steel, and we must be not very satisfied with it. We can recycle steel, and if we don't build a large amount of civil engineering, it's enough."
Ding Yuan rubbed his temples and said with a slight headache.
As the negotiations were deadlocked, he called a small number of people and held a brief meeting.
The expectations of both sides are a little different.
What Nanfeng needs most is food. If you can get dozens of tons of rice back, it will be the biggest harvest.
The Yunhai is quite ambiguous. It doesn’t make much sense to replace dozens of tons of rice with a little steel. For small forces, they actually don’t want anything, and they don’t want to really rob the other party, so they can only catch the other party’s appetite first.
"What? They lack food, can they negotiate calmly? They are almost starving to death, but they can still do this?" Lu Yiming said: "During the inspection, I found that many people's hands and feet were swollen. This is because they lacked an amino acid."
"Isn't it that I'm not as good as starving to death? Although I lack food, the main thing I lack is reserved... I understand the food reserve, right? The ability to resist risks is a little bit weak, and it's not particularly urgent... Unless they have a natural disaster like blight and don't even have enough food, they can only make us slaughter."
Ding Yuan paused for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Especially, the politics over there are too chaotic. Such a small boat has only more than 10,000 people, and there are six different political groups in total. In fact, it cannot be said to be political groups. It is a large family from six different countries. Each family has hundreds of people, each controlling its own army and wealth."
"You can do it. For each family, plus the army controlled by them, we can count 800 people, so there will be 5,000 people!"
"There are only 10,000 people in total. Five thousand people are nobles and do not engage in production. You can imagine the living conditions of the other five thousand civilians. There are no schools or the like, and it is even more impossible to start a kindergarten like us."
"In addition, each family has its own interests and wants to unify their opinions..." Speaking of this, Ding Yuan shook his head, obviously not optimistic about their future.
Lu Yiming sighed: "Yes, the civilians there are really hard. They can survive until now because they are too lucky and have not encountered too much danger... What a group of good luck guys."
On the side of the Nanfeng, the biggest danger encountered in the past year is a super-large fish, which may be hundreds of meters long.
The big fish suddenly jumped out of the sea water, and the tsunami triggered almost overturned their ship...
That is, this little external danger will pass.
"Xiao Lu, you still have too little knowledge. A society like ours is a very small number. Family management like the Nanfeng is the majority in a normal evolution state." Ding Yuan said with a smile: "The Nanfeng has only a few people. It controls the army and the gun, which is equivalent to controlling everyone. Can civilians rebel?"
"Like some ancient civilizations wandering in the Yanghe River, they must be a dictatorial management method, and they are unlikely to be modern management like ours. But aren't they living well?"
Lu Yiming was stunned.
How many people can resist the temptation of being a dictator?
The Yunhai has come step by step to the present, which is a reflection of the self-discipline of internal personnel.
"But, a civilization that is not powerful enough will eventually perish, right?"
"Oh, that's right."
In essence, the system of Yunhaihao is still biased towards socialism. Most of the means of production are publicly owned, belonging to the entire people, and even the entire shelter is publicly owned. If one day in the future, Ding Yuan stepped down and he could not take away everything here, it is impossible to say that Yunhaihao's assets are his own.
But the Nanfeng Hu is different. Many of the Nanfeng Hu's assets are directly privately owned, and most of the assets are controlled by several political families. If they want to let them spit out a little and benefit the people, it will simply take their lives.
This is the biggest difference.
For Yunhai, after several major crises and internal corruption rectification, the cohesion has been quite high. Some emergencies have occurred, and unified opinions are just a meeting. Agree means agreeing, and if you don’t agree, you don’t agree, and then act as quickly as possible.
However, for the Asian League's Nanfeng, all kinds of small things can be discussed for a long time. The interests of six different political groups may not be consistent with the collective interests of all people, and the efficiency will be very low.
Only with comparison can there be good or bad. When talking about the current system, even if there are still many places that need reform, everyone is still quite confident and proud of it.
