After hearing Wei Long's reminder, Roy belatedly scratched his head, realizing that it made perfect sense; GTI shouldn't get involved in this kind of thing.

"It's nothing, I... I was just saying it to lighten the mood, hehehe."

"But this actually gives me some information, which is that Hudson is not easy to mobilize right now. Or we might as well be bolder, because Hudson actually doesn't have many soldiers at his disposal right now."

Thinking of this connection, Zhang Hao immediately turned to look at Kami. Kami didn't need Zhang Hao to say anything; she simply took her phone and left the office to call Demulan.

"In that case, the reason why Hudson is so eager to cooperate with you, Uncle Said, is probably because he only has his eyes on Longbow Valley, which Reis currently owns."

After listening to Zhang Hao's analysis, everyone began to ponder, and at this moment, Claire raised her own question:

"But if that's the case, what's his real purpose in wanting the land in Asara? And isn't every board member who comes to Asara allocated a piece of land beforehand?"

"Sister Claire, your information is a bit outdated. After the high-ranking executive named Audrey and the impeachment of a board member, Hafk abolished the tradition of granting fiefdoms."

Faced with Claire, who didn't even have internet access, Zhang Hao couldn't help but want to cover his face. Claire, you've always been by Aunt Demulan's side, how come you know less about the inside information of Hafk than I do?

Zhang Hao: No wonder Ms. Demulan was so confident in letting Claire leave the Hafk Group and come to GTI. Now I really understand.

"After analyzing things this way, the truth of the matter is pretty much out. All I need to do is wait for Sister Cammy to come back and check the information, and then I will be able to confirm it directly."

Having finished his analysis, Zhang Hao revealed a confident smile, while Wei Long beside him wore an expression of "I knew it." Following Xiao Hao's line of thought, Wei Long felt he had roughly guessed what Hudson was thinking.

"Xiao Hao, I just asked Mom, and she said that Hudson is trying to expand the Ash Zone here, which probably means he wants to move all his troops from the US over!"

A short while later, Camille also came in and told him what she had just asked Demulan about.

"I understand."

Zhang Hao nodded in agreement. It seemed that Hudson was really very confident in himself. Was he really planning to fight against everyone by himself?

Chapter 751 What do you think?

"In that case, we really can't cooperate with Hudson. At the same time, we must ensure that we keep these lands in Asara firmly in our hands."

When Zhang Hao thought about how Hudson dared to be so bold, it meant that Hudson's army must be quite powerful.

Considering Hudson's financial resources and technological support, Zhang Hao knew that if Hudson were to actually take over Longbow Valley as described in the letter, it would definitely not be good news for Dam Zero.

As for the grand promises Hudson made to Said in his letter, even Said himself wanted to complain that Hudson was treating him like a fool.

"Indeed, this Hudson is looking down on people. If you want me to help you fight Reis, it would be fine if you just made empty promises, since I never take empty promises anyway. But what you're offering me now is less than what Reis gave me. I really can't feel any sincerity from him at all!"

At this point, Said also said that Hudson had also printed out a list of the supplies he had sponsored. However, this list, which seemed acceptable to Zhang Hao and the others, was now in front of Said.

That just shows that Hudson was completely bullying honest people. When Reese asked him to do work, he carried gold bars by the box.

So now Hudson wants to help you kill people, and all you give him are some level 5 armor, M14s and stuff? Does he really think Said doesn't have any?

Said: Why don't we just send the money directly? If the money is right, I'll take out Reis for you, and then use the money you give me to appease the local residents in Longbow Valley. That way, it'll all be mine, hehe.

After discussing for a while, the group decided to ignore Hudson this time, not to mention whether it would involve the power behind Reese.

Given that Reese has basically equipped every one of his minions with level 5 armor, if Said manages to win, it will only be a very brutal victory.

"You guys have no idea, but Patton told us that the power behind Reese is so generous that they don't even blink when it comes to throwing money around. The US really is the leader when it comes to stirring things up; you really can't do anything without money!"

Thinking of the six sets that Barton brought last time, Said couldn't help but complain. Now, you can't even call Reis a corrupt official anymore. This guy's money is simply inexhaustible. You can tell from the fact that he sent Barton to spend a lot of money recruiting soldiers in these territories of Asara.

“But Uncle Said, even if we reject Hudson’s cooperation this time and don’t take action against Reis, we still need to be prepared for war.”

"Even if Hudson fails to reach a cooperation agreement with us this time, he will not give up his idea of ​​targeting Reis. If nothing unexpected happens, Youssef will be his next target. However, we do not yet know whether Youssef will join forces with Hudson to target Reis."

Said thought about Yusuf's style and shook his head. He was the one Reis recommended to Yusuf back then, and Yusuf's idea had always been to rebel against Hafk, hadn't it?

As for this invitation from Hafk, it's highly unlikely that Said would actually agree to cooperate with him.

However, when he thought about how, during their regular phone calls, the man would occasionally ask him about Reis and complain more than once that Reis was too unruly, he felt a pang of sadness.

Said nodded again as he thought about this, while Sophia watched Said nod and shake his head as if he were a little dazed.

"What's wrong, Uncle Said? Judging from your appearance, has some news from above come your way?"

Zhang Hao noticed Said's strange behavior and then asked Said, who seemed to be stuck in a system bug.

After hearing Xiao Hao's question, Sayid explained his own dilemma, and then proceeded to clarify:

"What Yousef said to me is really giving me a headache. To be honest, I don't know if Yousef is trying to put Reiss down or if he's just venting to himself."

Hearing what Said said, Zhang Hao was completely confused. He really couldn't figure it out, since he knew almost nothing about Yousef and had only learned about him from Said.

"Well... in short, if all else fails, we'll just assume that Youssef agrees to cooperate with Hudson, and then we'll be ready to take direct action against Reis. Uncle Said, we need to be prepared to face a pincer attack from both sides!"

"After all, if Youssef could target Reis today, it wouldn't be surprising if he targeted us tomorrow. Besides, now that Hudson has taken over Reis's territory, our next target will definitely be us."

Zhang Hao: If Uncle Said weren't currently weak enough to take on two opponents at once, he could have let Hudson cause trouble right now. He could have slapped Hudson to death when Hudson tried to jump out and shout that he was invincible.

However, considering that Uncle Said and Dam Zero were still under development, Zhang Hao shook his head and banished the invincible, wish-fulfillment novel script that had been swirling in his mind.

Zhang Hao also understood the principle that one should not be too greedy. He knew that the development speed of the Zero Dam had long exceeded the imagination of them, including Uncle Shenlan.

Of course, this wouldn't be complete without the strong support of Reis, the tycoon. You could say that the resources Said could obtain by crying poverty to Yousef every time he did so might be enough to slightly improve the quality of life for everyone at the dam.

But if Said were to go and cry to Reis, that would be a completely different story. You see, Said is only refraining from going to Reis because he knows that Reis is on the verge of collapse.

If they continue with their usual frequency of showing up at Reis's place and complaining about being poor, coupled with the dam's existing personnel advantage, it would be very easy to control the situation.

Chapter 752 Hudson's Imaginary World

The group then stopped thinking about it. It wasn't really a good idea to have Said call Youssef right now and ask if he was interested in stabbing Reis in the back.

"Come on, ladies, now that we've finished discussing business, I'll take you on a proper tour of the dam!"

Seeing that the matter was almost settled, Zhang Hao said that it was time to take Kami and the others on a good tour of the dam. During this period, many new buildings were successfully constructed on the dam, and the cement plant and some other places were also completely renovated.

"Hey! Well then I really have to say something. Xiao Hao, do you want to go take a look at this masterpiece that Wuming, Abel, and I have been working on lately?"

Upon hearing that Xiao Hao was planning to take the girls to play in the dam, Said, who was eager to show off his achievements, immediately offered to take Xiao Hao and the others to his field, where he had recently added many new instruments.

"Tian? Let's save that for last. Come on, Xiao Hao, let's go take a walk around this dam first. You said there's a swimming pool in that hotel, right? Come on, come on, I think I'm ready again!"

Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to Said this time. It was obvious that Kami and the others had no interest in the farmland he mentioned. After all, everyone has their own area of ​​expertise, and Said and Weilong were probably the only ones who were willing to have fun in the fields.

"Let's go, old Sai. Roy and I will keep you company instead. You look so pitiful."

Seeing Said's overflowing desire to share, Weilong walked over and patted him on the shoulder. Then he pulled Roy, who was planning to sneak some food from the kitchen, and the group headed towards Said's farm.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . .

"So much time has passed, why hasn't Said called me back yet?"

At this moment, Hudson was sitting calmly in his office, but every few seconds he would glance at the private phone he used to contact Said, which was placed to the side.

Seeing that the phone had been sitting there without being used, even Hudson couldn't help but become curious. What on earth was Said doing?

You're already so pathetic, yet you're now funding him, giving him weapons and equipment, and after you take down Reis, you'll even give him the Ouroboros district, a suitable place for farming.

Hudson: I really have to say I've given you everything I can. Even if you, Said, were an idiot, you would know to cooperate with me!

Unfortunately, ever since his soldiers returned yesterday afternoon, Hudson had been waiting in this office for Said to call him.

But Hudson has been waiting and hasn't received the call from Sayyid. During this time, he also received a message from Daisy. After "friendly interaction" with her for more than ten minutes, Hudson's mood worsened.

"Perhaps Said is being too cautious, or maybe this guy is just too wary of me? Sigh, I guess I should write another letter and give it to him?"

At this moment, Hudson deeply regretted not having asked his soldiers to obtain Said's contact information when he sent them to deliver the message yesterday.

After all, he still wasn't sure what Said really thought of them. Last time he sent people, Said didn't attack them, but this time...

After considering the possible consequences for these people for just two seconds, Hudson simply smiled and said, "Let them die if they want. As long as I deliver my message, that's enough."

If these soldiers return this time, it means that Said currently doesn't harbor any hostility towards him, which is a good thing at the moment.

After all, even if Said wasn't very interested in cooperating with him, it still meant there was still a chance. If this batch of messengers all died at Dam Zero, then he could just turn around and contact Yousef.

Hudson: If it really comes to the worst-case scenario, then I'll have to team up with Youssef to get rid of Said. Of course, Youssef might not be willing to help. In that case, I'll set my sights on Reese first.

After all, based on the intelligence he had gathered, Yusuf's attitude towards Said was very good. It could be said that Yusuf had begun to regard Said as his second-in-command.

Hudson also suspected that Youssef was probably already thinking about how to get rid of Reis, the former second-in-command.

After all, Reis's ambition has now been completely exposed. Everyone, including himself who has only been in Asara for a short time, knows that Reis only has one thing in mind right now.

That is to become Asara's new emperor. It can be said that Reis has done a lot of outrageous things in order to become Asara's new emperor.

Putting aside the matter of setting fire to his own house, the two previous attacks on Hafk's side demonstrate that Reis actually cares a great deal about public opinion.

After all, when he still had people and money, he could have completely controlled the impoverished Sayed. In Hudson's mind, as long as he gave Sayed a bone with hardly any meat on it, he would have gained a loyal Sayed.

The two of them could join forces to take down Youssef. It could be said that during the period when Reese received resources from the United States, he was the most likely candidate to become emperor.

Unfortunately, this guy ultimately chose to lead his troops to confront Hafk head-on. Hudson guessed that Reis probably thought that if he led his men and drove Hafk's group out of Asara, he, as a great hero of Asara, could rightfully become the new leader of Asara.

Reese: You're probably one of those cultured people. The level of your imagination is just unbelievable. All I wanted to do was have a good fight with that old hag Demulan, but you made it sound so righteous and innocent that I almost believed you.

Chapter 753 Non-cooperation

If Reese knew that Hudson actually thought of him as a ruthless tyrant, he might blush a little.

Reese: Hehehe, blushing is out of the question. Since this Hudson has such good taste, I'll spare his life when I get to the space base.

After thinking for a while, Hudson still believed that Reese was the most suitable partner for him in Asara, but unfortunately, this person was somewhat mentally unstable.

Having nothing better to do than provoke the United Nations, Hudson was speechless at their sheer audacity.

After writing and printing out another letter, Hudson once again handed it to the same team that had delivered the letter to him before.

"Go ahead, and remember this time: get me Said's contact information, understand?"

Hudson also emphasized that these people should not, like last time, foolishly run back from the dam after delivering the message.

It's really true that subordinates should at least have some sense of propriety. As the leader, you clearly had something important to discuss with this Said, and what did you guys do? You just delivered the letter to Said and came back.

The messenger soldier from Hafk: Lord Hudson, you've really misunderstood us. Actually, our initial plan was to wait for Said to finish reading the letter and then relay his words back to us. However, we just happened to stumble upon Said's big secret at that time, so we rushed back to avoid dying there!

But now that their leader had spoken, the soldiers agreed and took the letter, then huffed and puffed as they ran toward Dam Zero.

Meanwhile, inside Dam Zero...

"It's really big, and it's completely different from what I saw in the database before!"
