Chapter 167 Huge Expenditure
Chen Dalong left soon, but he didn't really have anything to do, so he waited outside after leaving.
After a while, Li Huosheng came out and whispered: "They have all drunk the genetic potion and fallen into a deep sleep."
Chen Dalong nodded after hearing this, "That's good!"
Li Huosheng couldn't help but ask: "Boss, why are you so nice to them?"
Forget it during the mutant biological crisis before, sending a few brothers to protect them was just a waste of manpower, but it was not really a price for them.
But this time, he took out three bottles of genetic medicine, and they were also enhanced versions.
To be honest, Li Huosheng felt that if someone wanted this kind of genetic potion, even if it were sold for 100 million, the price would not be small.
Hearing the other party's inquiry, Chen Dalong felt a little pain in his head, but he also understood that this kind of thing might happen again in the future, so it was better to find a reason.
He thought for a while and said: "The Ye family is indeed special. They are a big shot, and they asked me to help take care of them. The enhanced gene potions you are taking were given by that big shot. In addition, you should not have any contact with the Ye family about this matter. Said they were unaware."
Hearing this, Li Huosheng was a little surprised, and even a series of bloody plots appeared in his mind.
For example, that Ye Xiangfeng might be the illegitimate son of a certain big shot. That big shot didn't dare to recognize each other for the time being because of guilt, but he made various compensations secretly...
Of course, Li Huosheng was not interested in the specific situation of the Ye family. It was enough to know that there was a big shot standing behind them.
"Okay, I understand." Li Huosheng said immediately.
Next, the two returned and began to wait silently.
Half an hour later, Ye Xiangfeng woke up first.
He was startled at first and didn't understand why he suddenly fell asleep. He subconsciously looked around and saw his wife and daughter lying on the sofa, and he was secretly relieved.
At this time, he looked towards the room and found that the female secretary who had given them the genetic medicine before was still there. He couldn't help but ask: "Hello, Secretary Lin, what is going on? How did we fall asleep?"
"Sir, this is a normal phenomenon after taking genetic medicine. You should have successfully become a superpower by now." Secretary Lin explained according to Chen Dalong's instructions. At the same time, there was envy in the eyes he looked at each other.
Superpowers! Who doesn’t want to be a superhuman?
Hearing this, Ye Xiangfeng no longer cared about being lethargic. He quickly stood up and immediately noticed the huge changes in his body.
He clenched his fist and felt that his whole body was full of strength. He even had the illusion that he could kill a cow with one punch.
"Is this the power of a superpower? It's really powerful!" He whispered excitedly to himself.
At this time, Wang Shuwen on the side moved her eyelids and woke up.
"Old Ye, why did I fall asleep?" Wang Shuwen said in a daze.
"Don't worry about that, have you become a superpower?" Ye Xiangfeng asked immediately.
Wang Shuwen was stunned for a moment, then she felt the changes in herself, and nodded excitedly, "Yes! I can feel it. My body seems to have become very strong."
At this time, Ye Rou also opened her eyes. She seemed to have not yet woken up. She rubbed her eyes and said, "Mom, I seem to have had a long dream."
"Oh? What did the little baby dream about?" Wang Shuwen asked casually.
"I dreamed that you took me to see the snow. It was so fun! We went skiing, made snowmen, and had snowball fights..."
Before she finished speaking, Ye Xiangfeng's somewhat urgent voice rang out from the side, "Rourou, what's wrong with your hand?"
Ye Rou rubbed his eyes for a moment, and then he saw a layer of ice crystals forming on the surface of his hands, as if he were wearing ice crystal gloves.
"Ah!" Ye Rou also saw the abnormality in her hands and put her hands down in panic.
Her palm touched the sofa, and instantly with her palm as the center, the entire leather sofa began to freeze rapidly, turning into an ice sculpture in just a few seconds.
"Wow~ Mom." Ye Rou was just a 6-year-old girl. She was frightened and cried when she saw such a scene, and immediately rushed towards Wang Shuwen.
"Stop, don't move!" At this time, Chen Dalong heard the movement inside and rushed in from the door. He immediately shouted and even used coercion.
Under such harsh words, Ye Rou stopped almost subconsciously.
When Chen Dalong saw this scene, he breathed a secret sigh of relief, walked quickly into the room, and said in a soft tone: "Kid, you have awakened the ice power. What you have to do now is to calm down and put away the power. Otherwise, if you get close to your parents, you will hurt them, just like that sofa, you know?”
Hearing what Chen Dalong said, Ye Xiangfeng and Wang Shuwen relaxed their anxious hearts. After Ye Rou knew the reason, she no longer panicked at first.
After all, she is already 6 years old and knows a lot of things. She also knows that she will become a person with powers this time.
So he quickly calmed down, and then under Chen Dalong's guidance, he carefully felt the state of his body and slowly put away his ice power.
At this time, Wang Shuwen hugged her daughter and almost cried with joy. The scene just now really frightened her.
Next, Ye Xiangfeng asked Chen Dalong a lot about people with superpowers.
Chen Dalong also told everything he knew.
When the couple learned that the awakened superpowers who took the gene drug generally enhanced their own superpowers, and only 1% of them would awaken other superpowers, they didn't know whether to be surprised or happy.
"Boss Chen, do you think this is a good thing?" Ye Xiangfeng asked.
"It must be a good thing! As long as the superpowers are awakened, it is a good thing, and there will be more and more superpowers like us who can enhance their bodies in the future."
"Superpowers like your daughter who have special abilities will gradually become more important." Chen Dalong said.
Of course, he knew Ye Rou's "real" identity and knew very well that when the other party had the memory of the previous life and began to recover her strength, she would probably be able to rival the Dragon King.
Therefore, he had no psychological burden when he praised her next.
Under Chen Dalong's intentional friendship, the two sides naturally had a good chat. Ye Xiangfeng and his family stayed in the Crazy Dragon Security Company for another hour before leaving.
…
When Ye Feng and his family awakened to become superpowers, a meeting of the highest standards was being held in the largest conference room in Yangcheng.
As usual, the division commander Bai Yinghui and the mayor Liu Zaoxin sat in the first seat.
On the left were military officers, and on the right were leaders of municipal departments.
Bai Yinghui looked around at everyone in the room and spoke first: "The main content of today's meeting is how to deal with this mutant biological crisis."
"We have discussed many details in the past few days. I called everyone here today to discuss the reinforcements of the Dragon King Palace."
Hearing this, many people were shocked and looked at Bai Yinghui with some expectation.
During this period of time, they have dealt with those mutant insects a lot, so they naturally understand how difficult those mutant insects are.
If the current defensive wall has not been built, to be honest, not many of them have the confidence to withstand this crisis.
Even though the defensive walls were built and various defensive facilities were arranged, many people in the field were still worried. After all, the number of mutant insects they faced this time was too many.
That was 300 million mutant insects, and this was just a conservative estimate.
In this case, the Dragon King Palace was undoubtedly their most important support.
The strength of the Dragon King Palace had been witnessed by all of them during this period of time, and the most representative example was the defense work of the three mines.
According to the estimation of the General Staff, if there were no mutant creatures from the Dragon King Palace to assist in the defense, they would have to deploy at least 3,000 soldiers in each mine to ensure the safety of the workers.
Previously, their regular army had only 10,000 people. If each mine had 3,000 people, then a total of 9,000 people would have to be withdrawn. Under this situation, the safety of Yangcheng City was difficult to guarantee, not to mention the training of new recruits.
With the help of the Dragon King Palace, the number of soldiers stationed on each mine can be directly reduced to 300. The military has even begun to propose that the defense work can be handed over to major security companies.
From this, we can see how powerful the Dragon King Palace is, and this is not all their strength.
So this time, if the Dragon King Palace is willing to maintain an offensive and defensive alliance with them, then the pressure on the military will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.
In the eyes of everyone's expectation, Bai Yinghui said: "We have contacted the Dragon King Palace and asked about their attitude."
"The Dragon King said that they are willing to send troops to help, but this is paid. So in this meeting, we mainly discuss how much it costs to invite the other party over."
As soon as Bai Yinghui finished speaking, Liu Zaoxin beside him immediately stated: "Don't worry, as long as we can survive this crisis, money is not a problem."
The military has limited money. Even if there is military expenditure on hand, it is used to enhance the strength of the army. The expenses of inviting reinforcements naturally need to be paid by the Yangcheng Municipal Government.
After hearing Liu Zaoxin's statement, most of the generals on the military side breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, in that case, let Zhang Ji tell us the details! This time, he will also contact the Dragon King Palace to discuss this matter." Bai Yinghui said immediately.
Hearing his name, Zhang Ji immediately stood up, "The Dragon King Palace's request is this..."
Then, Zhang Ji told the details of the negotiation with the Dragon King and the other party's request.
After Zhang Ji finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
To be honest, such a price for fighting is definitely not a small number even for the Yangcheng Municipal Government.
Liu Zaoxin immediately looked at the secretary-general Cao Guangzhi beside him, and the other party immediately lowered his voice and said: "We still have a lot of expenses in our account, especially the construction funds allocated by the capital."
"Except for various expenses, we can at least take out this amount." Cao Guangzhi made a gesture.
Liu Zaoxin nodded immediately, and now he knew what was going on.
He coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention and then said, "According to what Captain Zhang Ji said, the third-level mutant animals can directly display range pressure and suppress mutant insects, which has the greatest effect."
"How many level 3 mutants does the Dragon King have? If there are not many, I suggest inviting them all to help."
Bai Yinghui thought for a while and said, "According to what we have discovered, there are 25 level 3 mutants in the Dragon King Palace, and of course we cannot rule out the possibility that we have not discovered some."
"A level 3 mutant costs 30 million Chinese yuan. If we invite all 25 level 3 mutants, it will cost 750 million Chinese yuan in total."
Hearing this number, even though Liu Zaoxin was prepared in his heart, his mouth twitched fiercely. This was really too expensive.
However, if the defense this time is not successful and those mutants rush into the city to destroy it, the loss will not be a matter of a few hundred million, but probably tens of billions.
So, he gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay, I understand."
"In addition, we can't just invite third-order mutants, we must also invite second-order mutants, but the funds are limited, so we can't invite all of them."
Others nodded after hearing this. Second-order mutants are not cheap either. 2 million to invite one, so 50 is 100 million.
In this case, it is definitely necessary to invite those mutant animals that can absolutely crush the second-order mutant insects, so that they are worth the price.
"Just tell us how many second-order mutants we can invite with the money in hand! Then we can make a decision." Bai Yinghui said.
"Then... 300!" Liu Zaoxin gritted his teeth again.
300 second-order mutants, that's a full 600 million.
"Then, we will invite mutant Siberian tigers, mutant Asian lions, mutant African elephants, mutant hippos, mutant white rhinos, mutant brown bears, mutant jaguars, mutant giant pandas, mutant wild wolves, and mutant honey badgers."
"If all these are not enough, then we will invite mutant dogs. There are more than 1,000 in the Dragon King Palace, which is definitely enough." Bai Yinghui felt a little toothache after saying this.
Not only him, but the rest of the people in the field were also silent.
If they have so many mutant dogs... No, there are more than 10,000 mutant dogs in their custody now.
But the problem is that these mutant dogs are only in the early stage of the first stage, and they don't listen to their commands.
Anyway, they are so envious!
And Liu Zaoxin, who was bleeding heavily, asked directly: "Don't you have a plan to tame mutant dogs in the military? When can it be implemented? How long will it take to see the results?"
