The strongest peasant city

Chapter 567 Extortion

Zhou Keqing fed back Shi Qiu's opinion to Li Xiang and Zhou Zongnan, and both of them were very satisfied. Li Xiang smiled and said, "Professor Zhou, I'm really sorry to trouble you. I should have taken care of this matter!"

Zhou Keqing waved his hand and said: "What are you talking about, as if this project has nothing to do with me! Besides, this project was the most important thing for Li Xiaogang during his lifetime, and I will complete this project even if I am so heartbroken!"

Li Xiang nodded heavily and said: "Yes! If we can all hold such beliefs, I think we will overcome even the most difficult problems!"

"Old Li, Guo Qihua and He Yiqing are here again, waiting for you in your office!"

Zhou Zongnan walked in from outside the laboratory and said to Li Xiang.

Li Xiang frowned, and said in a nasty way: "These two guys, why are you here again? They really are wicked!"

"Old Li, Guo Qihua is a master who will not give up until he achieves his goal. If he goes back and forth, there must be some kind of conspiracy. You have to be careful!"

Zhou Zongnan said with some worry.

Li Xiang smiled and said, "Old Zhou, don't worry. I, Li Xiang, don't kill fools either!"

In the office, Guo Qihua and He Yiqing drank lightly and slowly pecked at the high-quality tea, looking at ease.

"Dean Guo, Professor He, we have gone back and forth, could it be that something has left us here, if so, I will send someone to find it for you!"

Li Xiang walked in with a smile and said.

Guo Qihua and He Yiqing stood up, Guo Qihua said: "That's not true, Professor He and I are poor people, even if something is lost, it will not be a precious thing, there is no need for us to turn around and come back, haha ...

There was a puzzled expression on Li Xiang's face, and he said slowly: "Then I don't understand. Could it be that you are still thinking about the amethyst. I said Dean Guo, Professor He Da, are you thinking about me?" Is it embarrassing? If we don’t need this amethyst in our laboratory, how much do you need? You can take it, I, Li Xiang, will never say no! But you have also seen that amethyst is also what we need. Without them, our project wouldn't be possible, it's just..."

Guo Qihua said with a chuckle: "Let's not talk about Amethyst first, let's talk about what you want to ask us for help."

Guo Qihua's words made Li Xiang a little confused, he laughed and said: "Me? I need your help? Why don't I know?" Guo Qihua said with a smile: "Director Li, you are really forgetful! Your desert project Don’t you need a hundred drilling engineering teams to go into the desert for drilling operations?”

Li Xiang frowned, and asked anxiously, "How do you know this?"

Guo Qihua smiled triumphantly: "This world is so small, it just so happens that General Shi Qiu and I only have good friends, and it just so happens that General Shi Qiu entrusted this matter to me, hahaha..."

"Coincidentally? Isn't this too coincidental?" Li Xiang said with a wry smile.

Guo Qihua waved his hands and said, "Don't worry about coincidences, let's talk about the real business now, shall we?"

Li Xiang said: "Well, do you have any questions about the [-] engineering teams? We can provide the materials, and we will also be responsible for the food, lodging and transportation of the soldiers. As for the drilling costs, as long as the military reports a figure, we will Absolutely no haggling!"

Guo Qihua chuckled and said, "Sure enough, Director Li is so generous! Compared to me, a pauper, Director Li is a rich man with big arms, a round waist, and a lot of money! It's a pity that these are not me. want."

Li Xiang gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, what do you want? Except for amethyst, you can mention it!"

Guo Qihua shook his head and said, "But we only want amethyst and nothing else!"

"You!...President Guo, aren't you extorting and taking advantage of others?" Li Xiang shouted angrily at Guo Qihua.

Guo Qihua picked out his ear, and said nonchalantly: "Am I as despicable as Director Li said? I'm so sorry, you should be considerate of me. If it were you, there would be a large group of people following you every day to ask for help. Whatever you want, you will do the same with me."

I don't know if Guo Qihua's self-cultivation is high enough, or his skin is thick enough, in short, no matter how cynical Li Xiang is, Guo Qihua just won't let go, and kills him with one hand and Amethyst with the other.This put Li Xiang in a difficult situation.

The entire Taklimakan Desert covers hundreds of thousands of square kilometers. If you want to cover it all with forests and crops, the number of saplings and grain seeds that need to be transformed is absolutely astronomical.

Although the energy of amethyst can be recovered automatically, the recovery speed is much slower than the release speed.

Even a single amethyst was not given to Guo Qihua, and the remaining amethysts are not enough to complete the transformation of such a huge number of saplings and grain seeds. However, Li Xiaogang left abruptly at this time, and they would never be able to get new ones. It can be said that the amount of amethyst supplements used up will be less. Now in order to save energy, Li Xiang and the others have even stopped the purple light bath they used to take once a day.

Seeing Li Xiang's frowning and troubled expression, Guo Qihua also knew that he was really in trouble, so he couldn't bear it.

But at the space agency, everything is ready, the only thing missing is the energy. He really needs Amethyst, so he can only be cruel.

There was boundless silence in the office. After a while, Li Xiang raised his head and said quietly: "Dean Guo, I beg you, please don't think about our Amethyst anymore. If you can really give it to you , I won't even hesitate, I really have difficulties!"

Guo Qihua shook his head and said, "Director Li, I beg you! So what if you give us half of the amethyst? At most, your project will be delayed for a while.

But you are fully capable of finding another more effective way to modify genes, but we are different.If you want to explore a new energy source, it is not a matter of a day or two, or even a year or two, but ten or twenty years.

We can't wait, our country can't wait!Director Li, I don't want to force you like this, but we really have no other choice! "

Li Xiang sighed, sat down heavily on the chair, and said: "Well, let me think about it first, I need to study with other people in the institute. After all, this is not my project alone. I will inform you of the result as soon as possible!"

Guo Qihua and He Yiqing glanced at each other and stood up at the same time. Guo Qihua said, "Well, Director Li, we will live in the military area guest house and look forward to your good news at any time!"

Li Xiang smiled bitterly and said, "It's good news for you, but it's bad news for me!"

Guo Qihua laughed and said, "This Director Li is wrong.

Could it be that our country's aerospace technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, and it is superior to the others. As a Chinese, do you think this is bad news? Li Xiang pouted and said, "Don't use these big hats to overwhelm me!"If you don't want my amethyst, you have made achievements, and I am naturally proud.But, please be clear, your rapid progress is based on my sacrificing my project! "

Guo Qihua coughed and said with a smile: "This... When personal interests are necessary, of course you must obey the national interests. You are also a veteran member, so you don't need me to do ideological work for you?"

Li Xiang waved his hand and said, "No need! What I need is for you to disappear from my sight right now!"

Guo Qihua shrugged his shoulders at Li Xiang and said, "Okay then! I'm waiting for your call, you won't keep me waiting for a long time?" Li Xiang glanced at him, turned his head to the side, and didn't speak. "

Guo Qihua smiled and said to He Yiqing: "Old He, let's go.

Give Director Li a little more time to think about it, and let's not bother him! "

He Yiqing smiled wryly and shook his head, suddenly realized, no wonder Guo Qihua would be recognized as the dean. With this cunning and insidiousness alone, it would be a waste not to use him.

After He Yiqing and Guo Qihua left, Zhou Zongnan and Zhou Keqing opened the door and walked in.

Zhou Zongnan asked: "Lao Li, what are they doing here again? I see that Guo Qihua's smiling face has turned into a flower. What kind of tricks is he playing?"

Li Xiang smiled wryly and said, "You two Mr. Zhou, it seems that we really have to take out half of the amethyst."

Zhou Zongnan was a little angry when he heard it, and he gritted his teeth and said, "When I saw Guo Qihua smile like that, I knew that this kid's plot had succeeded again! Lao Li, tell me, what kind of method did he use to make you Had to take out the amethyst.

Li Xiang said helplessly: "This guy doesn't know what the relationship is with Shi Qiu, but he got the right to speak on the project of the engineering team from Shi Qiu. He said, if we don't provide him with enough amethyst, then we will hire The plan of the military engineering team to carry out desert construction is about to be completely ruined. Tell me, what can I do?"

"That's unreasonable! This is nothing short of Chi Guoguo's extortion! I'm going to find Shi Qiu right now, and ask him if there is such a thing!"

The matter of the engineering team was discussed by Zhou Keqing. He had just brought back the good news that the negotiation was successful, but then Guo Qihua stepped in. How could Zhou Keqing not be angry?Can't help but shoot the case and start.

"Mr. Zhou, please calm down. It is not difficult for Shi Qiu to do this. After all, the person who has friendship with him is Li Xiaogang, not us. Now that Li Xiaogang is dead, he will of course stand by his old friend. .” Li Xiang said leisurely.

"Then what should we do? There is not enough amethyst in the first place, and if we take out half of it, our project will be affected immediately. There are not enough saplings and seeds, and all our plans will be delayed.

The annual rent in this desert is hundreds of millions, we can't afford it!Furthermore, if the desert project cannot go on smoothly, how can we be worthy of Li Xiaogang? "Zhou Zongnan was a little anxious, pacing back and forth, while frowning and shouting.
