Zhang Yi's attitude caused Xing Weinan's voice on the other end of the phone to pause.
Oh, it's better to call him Xing Tian, after all, he is a big shot now.
Big men always don't like others to mention everything about him when he was down, including his name.
Xing Tian chuckled, "I originally wanted to catch up with you and catch up on old times!"
"You see, I didn't do well in school at that time. Unlike you, I was handsome, popular with girls, and my academic performance was also good."
At this point, he let out a long sigh and said with emotion: "Hey, who would have thought that I would have such a prosperous day? Are you right, old classmate?"
Zhang Yi smiled and didn't care about Xing Tian's attitude.
The poor have this mentality when they suddenly become rich.
When he didn't know the other party's intention, Zhang Yi didn't try to expose the other party.
He just said to Xing Tian: "We can talk slowly in the future about reminiscing about old times. But you must not have found me today just to reminisce about old times, right?"
"I'm quite curious, so why don't you just tell me what your purpose is?"
Xing Tian on the other end of the phone raised his eyebrows.
Zhang Yi's attitude did not make Xing Tian feel satisfied.
What he hoped to hear was Zhang Yi's extremely shocked voice.
For example: "Damn it, you actually became the director of Qingpei Steel Works?"
Or they might say: "I didn't see it. You didn't see any ability in our class at the beginning, so why did you take off all of a sudden?"
Zhang Yi didn't do what he thought, but he didn't say anything to make him unhappy.
But Xing Tian was still in a good mood after putting on a show in front of his old classmates.
"Okay then, let's talk about business!"
Xing Tian picked his ears and his tone became serious.
"Zhang Yi, didn't you kill people from Yangsheng Base and Chaoyu Base before? Now they have decided to kill you!"
"And it wasn't the two of them who took action. For safety reasons, they called me and the people from the Snow Worship Sect."
"Haha, if the four of us really attack you together, I'm afraid you will suffer the same consequences!"
A sharp light flashed in Zhang Yi's eyes.
"Four families?"
He has no grudges with Snow Worship Sect and Qingwei Base.
He was not surprised that Yangsheng Base and Chaoyu Base would join forces.
I just didn’t expect that the forces joining forces this time would be all the top forces in Tianhai City!
If that's the case, the pressure they need to face will double!
Zhang Yi had this worst scenario in his mind.
If we really face that situation, the possibility of the shelter being breached will be as high as 20%!
At that time, they will have no choice but to abandon all the surrounding villas and the two-story buildings on the surface, and live underground.
Exaggeration?
It's not an exaggeration.
Even if four companies join forces, it does not mean that the ability to fight tough battles has been quadrupled.
Even the Xishan base, which has the largest ammunition depot, did not destroy the shelter's two-story building above ground.
The amount of explosives possessed by these four forces may not be as much as that of Xishan Base even if combined.
Zhang Yi asked calmly: "So you came to me this time to declare war?"
Xing Tian sneered.
"Old classmate, how old is this? How can we declare war? If I really wanted to go with them and beat you, I would definitely catch you by surprise."
"I'm looking for you this time. Firstly, I want to catch up with you, and secondly, I want to talk to you about my past relationship."
On the other end of the phone, Xing Tian's face showed a touch of warmth.
He recalled that when he was in school, his academic performance was not good and he was not popular with women.
He is like a gangster among many classmates.
Zhang Yi did not dislike him at first and helped him explain the ideas for solving the problem.
Now that he is prosperous, he also wants to help his old classmates to show his success!
Zhang Yi: "What do you want to talk about? Let's talk about it."
Xing Tian's thoughts were interrupted by Zhang Yi, who said:
"Our Qingpei base has no grudges against you. I don't have to fight this battle, but you must give sufficient conditions."
The Qingpei base is not warlike, and all workers in the Qingpei Steel Plant like a stable life.
Their life is not bad now.
And if there is a war, people will die, which is something they are unwilling to face.
Passionate workers are not afraid of death, but they do not want to die worthless.
So Xingtian contacted Zhang Yi.
If you can gain benefits without losing any blood or killing a brother, then that is the best choice.
As for whether Xing Tian takes care of his old classmates, there should be some, but not much.
Zhang Yi fell silent.
He couldn't tell whether what Xing Tian said was true or false.
He couldn't even tell whether the person on the other end of the phone was really Xing Tian.
However, he remembered that Xing Weinan did work in Qingpei Steel Factory, and since the other person was able to survive until now, he was probably that Xing Tian.
Seeing Zhang Yi's hesitation, Xing Tian smiled and said: "You'd better make up your mind quickly, because you don't have much time left. They will attack your shelter soon!"
Zhang Yi's eyes narrowed, "When?"
"Hahaha, I can't tell you this! Unless you agree to exchange with me."
Zhang Yi thought for a while and asked: "How many do you want?"
Xing Tian said: "I want 10,000 kilograms of food!"
Zhang Yi frowned: "Ten thousand kilograms of food?"
Xing Tiandao: "Yes, if you want us not to join this war, you must at least provide this much food!"
Zhang Yi fell into silence.
He thought that Xingtian's grades had never been very satisfactory, especially in mathematics. It was rare for someone to score more than 60 points on a 150-point test paper.
Ten thousand kilograms is 10 tons of food.
Does he think that 10 tons is a lot?
It’s not that Zhang Yi looks down on him, but in his warehouse, there are more than 10 tons of food on just a few shelves.
Zhang Yi said: "Let me think about this matter again. After all, you want too much food, so you have to give me some time."
Xing Tian said: "Okay, um...I'll give you one day to think about it, no more. Give me a reply before noon tomorrow."
He took a deep breath: "Old classmate, you'd better agree. Otherwise, I really don't want to meet you on the battlefield!"
"I understand, let's just say that first."
Zhang Yi and Xing Tian ended the call.
He leaned on the soft sofa, and the crystal lamp above his head emitted a warm and soft yellow light, covering his body.
Zhang Yi slowly put his hands behind his head, "Ten tons of food is not much for me. I can give him the cans I got from the Xishan Base."
"Oh, by the way. There is also the pile of uneaten canned food in Wang Siming's warehouse. That thing weighs the most, and there is a lot of soup and water in it."
"It's not difficult at all to raise ten tons."
"But, can you trust him?"
The material problem is easy to solve for Zhang Yi.
He doesn't even need to use the goodies in his own warehouse.
If there wasn't any danger outside, he could always take Fatty Xu with him to dig and move some supermarkets buried deep in the snow.
But Zhang Yi doesn’t want to draw water from a bamboo basket and achieve nothing.
He and Xing Tian haven't seen each other for many years, and people are always easy to change.
"I can agree to this matter, but I can only pay part of the deposit first. After the war is over and the Qingpei base performs to my satisfaction, I will pay the remaining part."
Zhang Yi had already thought of a countermeasure in his mind.
