: Section 662 Exchange

"Well, I know the difficulties General Li said, so we don't plan to let General Li go for nothing. As long as you can get the Pope's suit back intact, we will pay the corresponding reward." Luca is happy. Said.
"Then I don't know what kind of compensation Mr. Luca is going to pay."
"I don't know what General Li is interested in? Crystal nucleus or gold?"
"Hehe, I am not fighting for myself, so neither crystal core nor gold is what I want." Li Yuanhong said lightly.
"Oh? What kind of remuneration does General Li plan to accept?"
"I heard that in the treasure house of the Pope, there are antiques that China lost. If you exchange these antiques, I think I don't mind taking a risk."
"This... how does General Li plan to exchange methods? You can't get a set of pope's clothes. Just change all the antiques!"
"Of course not. Any exchange must be established on the basis of equivalence, and I will not speak loudly. In this way, one piece of clothing can be exchanged for ten pieces of our country's antiques." Li Yuanhong said.
"No problem!" Luca agreed without any hesitation. In their papal treasury, there were hundreds of thousands of Chinese antiques, and dozens of them were nothing at all.
"But the antiques you exchange must be approved by me. As long as there is a problem, our transaction will fall through." Li Yuanhong said with a serious expression this time. The reason why Li Yuanhong said this is mainly because Li Yuanhong was afraid that some of the less valuable cultural relics of the other party would be overcharged. You should know that any Qing Dynasty object can be regarded as an antique. However, the majority of Qing Dynasty cultural relics cannot be regarded as national treasures. Two words.
"This...well, I will try to communicate with His Majesty the Pope." This time Luca did not accept it, but made an official tone.
Li Yuanhong smiled slightly and said: "I believe the Pope will agree. After all, no matter how valuable foreign cultural relics are, it is not as meaningful as this set of Pope clothes, Mr. Luca, you say yes!"
"General Li said, when does General Li plan to take the Pope's clothes back?" Luca asked, indicating that he had acquiesced in Li Yuanhong's words.
"The group of zombies is under our surveillance, but they have now merged with a group of about 200,000 zombies, so it is more troublesome. If you go back and communicate with the Pope, I will also speed up preparations. With a clear reply, I am here to tackle the group of zombies."
The main reason why Li Yuanhong said this was that if Li Yuanhong said that he had taken the pope's clothes now, then his bargaining chip would be reduced invisibly, so Li Yuanhong would not make a surrendering bargaining chip.
"Well, I will go back and report to His Majesty the Pope." Luca agreed.
Li Yuanhong thought that if Luca arrived here, he would stand up and say goodbye, but he didn't know if Luca was sitting there.
"Mr. Luca, is there anything else?"
"Oh, that's it. I saw many survivors on the way here. They are now plagued by hunger. I wonder if your country can extend a helping hand to help these poor people of God."
"Oh, what you are talking about is this. Actually, I just talked about it with the Italian Foreign Minister, but there are nearly 100,000 refugees here. It is not an easy task to resolve the supplies of so many people. !" Li Yuanhong sighed helplessly.
In fact, Luca also heard the discussion between the Foreign Minister and Li Yuanhong. The whole process can be said to be a one-step process without going deep. After all, it is not a small amount to solve the living supplies of nearly 100,000 people, and Li Yuanhong does not want to be unpaid like this. Under the circumstances, a group of idlers are raised.
"Then General Li has any plans to sell supplies?" In Luca's view, the reason why Li Yuanhong is so embarrassed is that the transportation of materials is not easy. You must know that now is the end of the world, and traffic has almost been cut off to transport materials once. There is no resistance, but Luca doesn't know that Li Yuanhong has the secret assassin's teleportation array, ten thousand tons of materials, which can be transmitted from China to Europe in a few seconds.
"As long as there is a suitable price, it is not impossible to sell materials." Li Yuanhong never refused to make money.
"But I advise you, it's best not to simply help, otherwise wait until those people outside get used to your help, and when you are not helping, they will become irrational lunatics." Li Yuanhong gave the other party a suggestion.
"Oh? Do you have any good suggestions for General Li?"
"In China, we never believe in getting something for nothing. Only when the other party pays the corresponding labor, the corresponding remuneration will be given. Only this kind of assistance will be long-term. Now this city has just been regained, I think someone needs to clean up and transform the place. There are many. You can exchange your rewards for food, which may be more effective.
Li Yuanhong, a city governor, can't be more clear about the evil consequences of the kind of bad guys who let refugees go. He is his business partner. Lastly, Li Yuanhong gave a suggestion.
"Well, I remember what General Lee said." Luca thanked him very sincerely.
Next, Luca and Li Yuanhong discussed the establishment of long-term contacts between the Vatican and China. However, due to the unrealistic requirements of the Holy See in the past, especially the request for intervention in the religious affairs of China, the two countries have been unable to reach an agreement. opinion.
This time, although Luca proposed the intention to establish diplomatic relations, many things were not accomplished overnight, that is, Li Yuanhong himself was too lazy to talk about this kind of things, and just let the second chief send someone over.
Luca then left, and Luca's trip was considered fruitful. It is estimated that the Pope will be satisfied with such results.
After that, Li Yuanhong repaired for two more days. On the third day, he finally waited for the reply from the pope brought by Luca. The pope basically agreed to Li Yuanhong’s request, and also specifically approved a church restoration plan, which was to recruit those The survivors will restore the churches that have been abandoned for many years, and even some places have grown grass. Those who work will be paid for food, and the houses around the church will also become the homes of these workers to ensure these The safety of those who contribute to the church.
Of course, the church does not have so much food now, and the food source is bought from Li Yuanhong.
"How much food do you want?" Li Yuanhong asked.
"We plan to hire about five hundred people and spend one year on repairing the church. Then you can sell us food for six hundred people for a month." Luka said.
"Oh? Why don't you hire a thousand people or more at a time, you know that there are more than one or two thousand idlers in Rome now."
"We also think about hiring more people, but this is not only more troublesome for management when it is being repaired, you know, in the cathedral, a piece of tile randomly, it is invaluable to take out, of course at this time there are many people. If something were to be lost, it would be an undue loss for the Holy See.
In addition, the amount of food for 500 people a month is already a large amount. I am afraid that if there are more people, there will be problems with the supply of materials on General Li's side. "
"Hahaha, I'm afraid that I don't have enough supplies here! Please don't worry, Mr. Luca, we have enough supplies here. At least 10,000 or 20,000 people should be provided with food for a year."
Luca didn't expect Li Yuanhong to have so many supplies, but he never saw it in the barracks.
"If Luca wants it, we can provide it whether it's convenient storage of canned food or rice noodles." Li Yuanhong added.
"Great, let's go, how about you first give us 10,000 boxes of cans and ten tons of white flour?"
"No problem, but what is Mr. Luca going to use to pay?"
"Crystal core, is it okay?" Luca asked.
"No problem!" Li Yuanhong replied with a smile. This is another sale. Although the first batch is not many, Li Yuanhong believes that this is just the beginning. The next step is the price discussion. When Luca heard Li Yuanhong’s offer, he was shocked. The price was too cheap. In Luca’s view, the price was simply lost. Could it be that Li Yuanhong sold it on his own. Army rations, so as to fill their own pockets, or the price will not be 10% cheaper than the official price of their camp. However, it is a to have a cheap price, and Luca will not push it out, so he set the price in one bite, and even the bargaining process did not appear.
When Luca thought he was taking a big advantage, Li Yuanhong secretly said in his heart: "This group of silly people, I have a price that is twice as high as the domestic price. I didn't expect them to agree with one bite!"
After both parties are satisfied that the first agreement is reached, it is the key issue.
"General Li, I don't know when you will start attacking those zombies? If you can, I hope I can visit the scene by then."
"This is not in a hurry, we are ready. Since you are here today, we can attack the zombies tomorrow."
"Okay, then I will come on time tomorrow morning!" Luca didn't stay here for a long time. He got up and said goodbye. He wanted to go back and inform His Majesty the Pope of the results of today's food trade. This is a great achievement.
Luca came early the next morning, and there was a convoy behind him, but this convoy was not for fighting, but for pulling food. In fact, ten tons of white flour can be loaded by a large truck. It is a pity that after the end of the world, this big truck is very difficult to find, and only some civilian vehicles can be used to pull goods, so there are more trucks. In this way, the team looks a little aggressive.
However, when the convoy came to Li Yuanhong’s military camp, they were blocked by the army, and Luca was directly picked up by Li Yuanhong in an armored vehicle. As for food, there were many large trucks in Li Yuanhong’s transportation convoy. After leaving, as for the cars brought by Luca, they have become the escorts of the big trucks, which is very nondescript.
