Chapter 443 Cooperation
Lin Nian stood in front of the blinds, stretched out his hand to move the blades of the blinds, and looked down at the snowy parking lot through the gap. Luxury cars started up, heating the car bodies, and the snow covering the cars melted and turned into snow water flowing on the ground. On the road, the tires made ruts in the snow and slowly drove down the mountain road.
The most eye-catching thing is the middle-aged man riding a bicycle. He is wearing a yellow and black tight-fitting sportswear and riding the bicycle in the snow. He does not look like one of the powerful people of the Supreme Council at all, but a misunderstanding. As a senior member of the Mountain Bike Association, the main topic every day is the debate about whether cars or mountain bikes are faster on urban roads.
"I thought this meeting would end on an unhappy note, but it seems that you have indeed learned a lot from your teacher in just one year." Elizabeth Laurent appeared in the room, Behind her was the suite door that was ajar, and there was no one in the corridor outside.
All the school directors left, but she stayed here, as if she had something to say to Lin Nian.
"Instead of letting people test the bottom line again and again, it is better to put the bottom line on the table for negotiation." Lin Nian withdrew his finger, and the blinds closed the suite in darkness, leaving only a few thin rays of light shining on his side. There was a glass of gin on the table next to his face, as if he was drinking alone when Elizabeth, the school director, came.
"Originally they wanted to bring that girl Mandy Gonzalez to the negotiating table to pressure you, but your performance absolutely made them give up the idea temporarily. Your senior sister will not be taken for a long time. On the negotiating table." Elizabeth said, "They originally wanted to use the first issue to pressure you to make concessions and compromises on the second issue, but the final outcome was still beyond their control."
"Actually, the second topic is the argument of this emergency meeting, the 'Nibelung Plan' and the discovery of the Baidi City ruins." Lin Nian leaned against the wall and nodded lightly, "You made a good point in the car before. , the promise put forward by the school board is very tempting, and not many hybrids can control their hearts in front of that plan."
"Bloodline is the most proud thing of the mixed race. There is no one thing. The power, wealth and status we have obtained are all based on the bloodline and the castles built by stepping on the bones." Elizabeth said.
"In order to complete the plan, they did not hesitate to make me a temporary collaborator. It seems that the school directors have high expectations for this plan. Do they really want to entrust me with all the tasks of ending the Dragon King Era? Aren't they afraid that they will be the master in the end?"
Elizabeth looked at Lin Nian by the window and shook her head, "The 'Nibelung Plan' is just the beginning. After the candidate is successful, the next step will be for the Presbyterian Council to start research on the derivatives of the 'Nibelung Plan' , that’s when the ‘Nibelung Plan’ really started.”
"Derivatives?"
"The idea of the inferior version of bloodline refining and strengthening technology comes from the leech you got in that opera house. The original function of the leech is to give the user a new bloodline, similar to a permanent blood exchange, which can make a withered old man regenerate. Radiant and reborn. Do you know what that means?”
"Elixir?" It was originally a very serious topic, but Lin Nian burst out laughing. Elizabeth in front of him just looked at him quietly, waiting until he finished laughing and sarcasm.
"The bloodline of the Dragon Clan contains many mysterious powers that cannot be explored with current human technology. Using their serum to create a super hybrid species is nothing more than overkill. Technology whose value is truly inestimable can always be mass-produced and degraded versions If the Nibelung Plan succeeds, we will start a new era." Elizabeth said.
"A new era?" Lin Nian put away his smile and looked down at the cars speeding down the winding mountain road. The engine roar from far away shook off the snow on the leaves in the mountains, "Look Get up, slaughter all the monarchs here, and kill the black emperor who is trying to return. Isn't that your ultimate goal?"
"That is the goal of the old-school secret party, not the new-school secret party." Elizabeth said calmly, with a calm expression under the black veil, "Times have changed, and the old people who once devoted themselves to slaying dragons are almost dead. There is such a thing as the flame of revolution. It will eventually burn out, leaving only the warmth of the embers. In today's fast-changing world, human beings have traveled a long way on many roads, and one of the most exciting roads is called "science."
"Far beyond the kinetic energy weapons, nuclear weapons, energy weapons, and space-based kinetic weapons of the old era. A hundred years ago, we were still weak babies in front of the Dragon Clan. We could only rely on cold weapons and black powder to resist, often killing a four-year-old. The fourth generation species will cost hundreds of lives. But things are different now. If the fourth generation species is encountered, two ground-penetrating missiles carried by the B-2A will be able to send him to the Dragon King's Hall of Valor before the opponent notices it. , even if he escapes by chance, he will be seriously injured. The power of science and technology has advanced to the extent that it can awe the dragons who have been eliminated by the times." Elizabeth said, "Human beings are progressing, and the times are progressing, so gradually the dragons and even the dragon king no longer It used to be an insurmountable mountain in front of the eyes of the old people. People always have to look further, after all, there is a whole sea and blue sky behind the mountain."
"I guess you must all be secretly starting to figure out how to carve up the world after all the dragons are gone."
"The Gattuso family will get the biggest piece of the profit pie, followed by the Laurent family." Elizabeth Laurent said bluntly, "The next hundred years will eventually be the era of mixed races!"
Lin Qingnian chuckled lightly and could not deny this. He leaned against the wall and looked at the extremely beautiful blond female school director. After a while, he spoke again, "What do you want, and what are you prepared to pay for."
"You were not the initial candidate for the 'Nibelung Plan'." Elizabeth said, "But under the control of the Laurent family and Angers, the achievements arranged for you in this year are worthy of you squeezing out the original candidate. People come to the fore, otherwise the first student summoned by the school board will be someone else.”
Lin Nian didn't ask who that person was. When he knew that Frost Gattuso was the school director with the greatest say in the school board, he probably knew the original direction of many things.
"Then what do you want?"
"The King of Bronze and Fire is the best even among the four kings. He is violent and terrifying. His power is enough to uproot an active volcano from the ground. As long as he has enough time, he can even detonate volcanoes around the world, making The Earth's return to the Ice Age is tantamount to the indirect destruction of human civilization." Elizabeth said, "And I guess nothing can better represent the power of a school director in the Presbyterian Church than controlling the bones of this dragon king."
Lin Nian paused and looked up at the pair of faint eyes under the veil, "Does the Laurent family finally want to show its hand to the Gattuso family?"
"Big fish eat small fish. When all the dragons are wiped out in the future, no one can say whether the biggest fish will swallow the whole table with its backhand." Elizabeth said, "My father said before he died, The Gattuso family can never be allies. They can cooperate because his appetite is not big enough. When his appetite grows enough to swallow us, the moment they take action will come with thunderous force. "
Lin Nian tried to figure out the deeper thoughts of the girl who was similar to him in age, but regretfully found that what the other party said now was completely in line with the other party's position. This was a game of power, and he happened to be able to win in this game. play a leading role here.
"It is difficult to stand firm without ruthlessness, and it is difficult to gain a foothold without a vicious heart." He read this sentence subconsciously.
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment. Her Chinese was indeed sufficient for her to understand this sentence. She chewed on the meaning and nodded in agreement, "That's probably what it means."
"Now Baidi City is still in the process of searching, and the excavation work has not been started yet. Is it too fast to start discussing the division of the Dragon King's legacy now?"
"A war is always started because of interests. The scroll that divides the world's territory should be hung on the wall and looked at every day before the war."
"It is impossible for me to cooperate with the Gattuso family, you can rest assured of this." Lin Nian said, "That group of people cannot learn true cooperation. For them, control is the best way to cooperate."
"I hope you can consider the final home of the bones before meeting the king on the bronze throne." Elizabeth nodded lightly, said goodbye, turned and walked towards the ajar door, "The contact information of the Laurent family will be It will be delivered to you from Angers. As your potential and most likely partner, we will consider sending the face-to-face gift to you in the near future.”
"Meeting gift?" Lin Nian looked up at her graceful back.
"It's a local mining company in China that your lover controls on your behalf." Elizabeth paused, and when she opened the door gently, she turned to look at Lin Nian, her eyes shining under the black veil, "Before we can cooperate, we must I know something about you and your taste is very good."
"." Lin Nian didn't want to explain anymore. Any explanation he gave now would become a cover-up in the eyes of the other party.
"By the way, one more question, what are your expectations for the future of that mining industry?"
"Expected?" Lin Nian thought for a while and then said, "Number one."
"Are you the leading mining group in Asia? You have a huge appetite. Considering the size of your mining industry, it may take some time to achieve this goal, but it will be easy as long as you can handle cross-ocean business and connect to Europe. It's a lot, but it still takes a certain amount of time. As a meeting gift, it may be a bit large, but it is worth your value." Elizabeth paused in silence for a moment and then nodded and agreed.
Lin Nian opened his mouth slightly and closed it again. The words "No. 1 in the City" were a little hard to say.
"It's a pleasure to cooperate. If there are no accidents, the Laurent family will be your strongest supporter in the future." Before going out, Elizabeth glanced back at Lin Nian by the window again, "Ange saw the wrong person many times. Few, and I also believe in my own vision.”
