Are you touching me in the military industry? I sell fishing rods!

Facing Field's furious rebuke, Zhao Shanhe remained very calm.

"Mr. Field, we are all civilized people. We must rely on evidence for everything. If you have evidence, you can bring it out. If not, we can accuse you of slander or even frame-up!"

Framed?

Framed?

Upon hearing these two words, both Field and the other round table members nearby almost went crazy!
I was so angry that I was shaking!
How could Longcun not know whether it was a false accusation or not?

As for frame-up? ?
Not to mention whether they have so many Dragon Village equipment, even if they do!

Are they crazy to use so much equipment to frame Long Village?
More importantly, how many tons of cement did they have in their heads to give those equipment to the camels that were fighting them, and let the camels use those equipment to fight them? ?

However, before Field and others could say more, Zhao Shanhe's voice sounded again:

"Stepping back, why couldn't Xiaoba Village and Xiaopang Village buy the equipment? They don't have money, but they can get a loan..."

"There is something you may not know, Mr. Field. Just a few months ago, Xiaoba Village borrowed 500 billion interest-free loans from us, and Xiaopang Village also borrowed 100 billion interest-free loans from us..."

“???” For a moment, everyone was stunned.

Soon his face became so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out of it.

Almost all the people present were representatives of chaebols, and each of them came from a capitalist background. It could be said that no one knew more about loans than them!

Therefore, almost in an instant, Field and others had figured out the key!

Interest-free loan? ?
You fucking play like this, right?
Anyone with a little bit of common sense would know the trick here.

If there is no trick here, how could Long Village provide so much loan to Xiaoba Village and Xiaopang Village, and it is interest-free loan at that!
Is Longcun really a philanthropist?

fart!

Longcun does have a reputation as a good guy on Blue Star, but if anyone says that Longcun is a philanthropist, then that person is an idiot!

Looking across the entire Blue Star, which village would give benefits to others for free?
Without exchange of interests, who are you?
friendship?

Bullshit friendship!

If you encounter any natural disaster or man-made calamity, I might donate some supplies or merchandise to you in order to gain some fame, or because I owe you a favor in the past.

For a village ranked among the top ten economies in the world, tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or even billions of dollars are just small amounts of money, and can be given away at will.

But this amount is easily hundreds of billions or even trillions. What village can be so rich and inhumane as to throw out hundreds of billions so casually?
Not to mention others, even they in the Black and White Eagle Village don’t have that courage!
That is hundreds of billions, whether it is Green Coin or Dragon Coin, it is an astonishing number!

It’s not a currency like Zimbabwean dollar that is sold by pound!

At this moment, Field and others were gritting their teeth.

I wish I could eat Zhao Shanhe alive!
"Everyone, I say the same thing again. If you have evidence, you can just bring it out. We will admit it when the time comes. But if there is no evidence and it is not ours, we will not let anyone accuse us so easily!"

"We in Long Village won't take the blame for this!"

While Field and others were gritting their teeth, Zhao Shanhe deliberately frowned and spoke in a cold voice.

In fact, Zhao Shanhe knew very well whether those equipments were sold to Luotuo by Longcun.

But, what if it is? What if it isn’t?
What about the evidence?
I only provide a loan. As for what the borrower does with the loan money, that is the borrower's freedom. What does it have to do with me?
Similarly, what the things bought with the money are used for has nothing to do with me.
You borrowed money from a bank, bought a kitchen knife in a supermarket, and then went to the street to slash someone. Can you say that the supermarket ordered you to do that? Can you say that the bank ordered you to do that?
Isn't that nonsense?

As for why those equipment were sent to the desert, just like the kitchen knives, that is the business of the lender?

Once a borrower buys a kitchen knife, whether he sells it or gives it away, it is the borrower's freedom. Can banks and supermarkets interfere with the borrower's forced purchase or sale?

Or do you, Black and White Eagle, want to force a confession out of me?
The Black and White Eagle in the past might have had this strength, and he wouldn’t even need to be tortured into confessing, he could just make the final decision with one blow!
If they say you did it, then it’s you who did it, even if it’s not true!

Black and White Eagle said that Shadamu has laundry detergent, but Shadamu said no. Will it work?

In the past, Long Village had also been slandered for having laundry detergent. At that time, Long Village could only hold its nose, break its teeth and swallow its anger!
But, that’s all in the past!

The current Long Village is no longer the Wuxia Amon of the past!
In the past you said yes, even if you didn’t, I wouldn’t dare to say no!

But now, even if I have it, as long as I don’t admit it, do you dare to say that I have it?
Even if you dare to say it, what can you do to me?
Dignity is only on the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon!
And now, Longcun is the truth!

Looking at Zhao Shanhe who was pretending to be serious and had a bad look on his face, Field and others were even more furious.

I couldn't help but clench my teeth so hard that they made a chattering sound!

They never thought that Longcun could be so shameless!

When Longcun faced them before, he never dared to ask for any evidence!
Even if he was framed, Longcun could only find ways to prove his innocence instead of letting them find evidence!

And now, when the facts are clearly visible at a glance, Longcun, who is so talkative, can actually lie with his eyes open and say such "shameless" words!
But unfortunately, they really couldn't produce any evidence!
Although many people were involved in these transactions in Long Village, there were always only a few core personnel!
Only a few core personnel know the specific content of the transaction.

Unless they can capture those core members, such as Modarahan, and extract details from them, otherwise, even if they know everything, they will not be able to impose the title of selling equipment on Long Village.

Although they were reluctant to admit it, they had to admit one thing: the current Long Village was no longer the weak and vulnerable punching bag it once was.

They had no doubt that if they really dared to impose any title on Longcun, Longcun would definitely turn against them immediately!

"Is that the end of it?"

As thoughts came to mind, all the members of the round table were filled with anger!
The incomparable frustration made everyone feel like vomiting blood.

"No, we absolutely can't let this go!"

Until one moment, a cold light flashed across Field's eyes.

never mind? ?
This time, their Black and White Eagle Village suffered such heavy losses!
Only one in ten squids in their Squid Village are left!

Next, they may even all be driven into the sea by camels to feed the fish!
And all this is because of Longcun!
How can we forget it?
Thinking of this, Field and Smith next to him looked at each other, then looked at Zhao Shanhe coldly and said gloomily:
"Mr. Zhao, what you mean is that you are not going to take any responsibility, right?"

Hearing this, Zhao Shanhe's eyes moved slightly, and he took a deep look at Field, then nodded slowly and said, "I said, if it was us who did it, we would naturally admit it, but if it wasn't us, we would definitely not admit it!"

"Similarly, if it's not our responsibility, we will never take it!"

"Okay! Very good!" Field gritted his teeth and said gloomily, "If that's the case, then there's no need for us to talk. We don't see any sincerity from you, so let the world see whose fault it is!"

"Really?" Zhao Shanhe glanced at Field indifferently, then shook his head slightly: "If that's the case, then there's no need for us to talk any further, let's see for ourselves!"

After he finished speaking, Zhao Shanhe stood up again and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Seeing Zhao Shanhe's actions, Smith finally spoke again.

Without waiting for Zhao Shanhe's response, Smith continued:

"Mr. Zhao, this is not what Field meant. Let's sit down and talk slowly..."

Hearing this, Zhao Shanhe sneered in his heart.

Good-looking and bad-looking?
Such an obvious trick, do you really think he can't see it?

These things were already out of date in Long Village thousands of years ago.

Although Field pretended very well and seemed to be really furious and about to take action immediately, Zhao Shanhe could see through it at a glance!
However, even though he knew it, Zhao Shanhe did not expose it directly.

After all, he did come here to negotiate this time.

As for falling out, that is not the right thing to do now. At least before the [Anti-Log Defense System] is built, a complete falling out will do more harm than good to Long Village.

Compared to falling out, stability is the best option for Long Village now.

It’s not just because of Longcun’s strategic layout including the Nantianmen and anti-log defense system.

It was also because of Preston who had contacted Long Village before.

A Preston who wants to improve…

The best military operation is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their soldiers, and the worst is to attack the city. Attacking a city is the last resort!
The struggle between villages is not just a head-on clash of guns and bullets.

In fact, a head-on confrontation is the stupidest thing to do!
Without talking about the distant past, just look at S1S2 and you will know. After the head-on confrontation, what did both sides get?
Apart from making the Black and White Eagle Village, a bystander, stronger, the two parties in the head-on confrontation gained nothing!
Especially Niu Niu Village and Sande Village. The former has changed from being the world overlord to being a vassal of the Black and White Eagle!
Not to mention the latter, until a few months ago, Sande Village was under the control of Black and White Eagle!

Even if you fart, you have to look at the consent of the Black and White Eagle Village!
There is also the more recent old polar bear, which is an even more classic case.

Relying on its vast territory and the huge foundation brought by the crazy military expansion in S2, the Old Polar Bear once competed with the Black and White Eagle Village.

If the two sides really go to war, there will be only one final result, and that is both sides will suffer losses!
However, the Black and White Eagle Village chose a smarter approach and defeated the old polar bear without bloodshed from within the Polar Bear Village!
There was no actual confrontation, but the damage caused by this strategy was even more terrifying than an actual confrontation!
Such examples are everywhere in the history books of Long Village!

Anyone who only knows how to swing his fists can be considered a reckless man at best!
Even if he has the courage of ten thousand men, he is still just a reckless man, like the Overlord at Gaixia, like Lu Bu in the acting novels, like Zhang Fei who is known as the "enemy of ten thousand men"...

These people may have unrivaled military strength, but the final outcome...

As I said before - attacking a city is a last resort!

Following the steps given by Smith, Zhao Shanhe returned to his original seat.

"Everyone, this time we come with the will of the 177 villages of Blue Star. I hope you can show sincerity in the negotiations instead of asking for too much and treating us, or the whole world, as suckers... Um... you may not understand what suckers mean, so let me put it bluntly. We are not fat sheep and will not let you slaughter us!"

"If you are still unwilling to show your sincerity, then our negotiations will be terminated directly, and all consequences will be borne by you!"

Returning to his original position, Zhao Shanhe said coldly.

After a pause, Zhao Shanhe continued, "By the way, I would like to remind you that the reason we came to negotiate with you is not because we are worried that your Black and White Eagle Village will overturn the table, but because we received requests from 177 villages!"

"If we don't consider the interests of these 177 villages, to be frank, even if you really overturn the table and fire all the logs at us, we will be intact! Your logs and mushrooms pose no threat to us!"

Hearing this, Smith and the others couldn't help but shrink their pupils.

"Your Excellency is saying that you already have a defense system that can defend against our logs?"

After looking at each other, one of the round table members couldn't help but speak.

"you guess?"

Faced with the inquiry, Zhao Shanhe did not respond directly, but looked at the other party meaningfully and spoke ambiguously.

Hearing this, the corner of the round table member who had just spoken twitched slightly.

Guess?
Guess what!

If he could guess, would he even need to ask?

Not only this member of the round table, but also the other members of the round table couldn't help but feel the veins on their brows jump.

The faces of Field and others turned blue and purple.

Instinct, experience, and the intelligence they had were telling them that Zhao Shanhe was lying!

But is it really a lie?

At this moment, the information about the hypersonic missiles from Long Village involuntarily emerged in the minds of Field and others.

According to the information they have, Longcun currently has hypersonic air-to-air missiles and air defense missiles with a range of more than 600 kilometers!

Coupled with the almost perverted satellite system that exists like a ghost in the desert, it might be possible to intercept their logs!
And this is just what Longcun has on the surface. Judging from the various black technologies that have emerged in Longcun in recent times, there is no telling how much real black technology Longcun still has!

For example, the Nantianmen Gate that was made public several months ago!

According to the information they got from a camel, Dragon Village has already reached a cooperation with Polar Bear Village!

And he also extended an olive branch to the camels!
Even they are salivating over some of the technologies revealed in those collaborations!

Thinking of this, Field and others' faces became even more gloomy.

After an unknown amount of time, Smith finally suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then turned his gaze to Zhao Shanhe again, and said in a deep voice:

"Mr. Zhao, it seems that you really come here with sincerity, so we won't be the bad guys..."

After a pause, Smith continued:

"This time, we suffered heavy losses in the conflict with the camels. This is an indisputable fact!"

"Our conditions mainly include the following:"

"First, we and Camel must stop all conflicts, and Camel must stop all provocations and offensive actions against us! Restore the pre-war order!"

"In exchange, we are willing to completely withdraw from Sand Camel and One Camel and will no longer interfere in the affairs of Sand Camel and One Camel!"

Hearing this, Zhao Shanhe remained silent.

Seeing this, Smith continued:
"Second, the camels will completely withdraw from Squid Village and stop all actions against Squid Village. Restore the geographical control order between the two sides before the war! Publicly apologize to the civilians in Squid Village who died in this incident and compensate them, and help Squid Village rebuild their homes!" (End of this chapter)
