Chapter 249 Only Ore, No Money

Gus scornfully glanced at Luo Yang Primo and cursed, "Idiot! Do you really think controlled nuclear fusion technology is just a power generation technology?"

"Isn't it?" Salo Yang Primo was bewildered.

Gus's disdain intensified, "No matter what civilization, at the level of controlled nuclear fusion technology, it must be the result of joint research by many scientists, reflecting the characteristics of that civilization."

"Now, that fellow Jing Mingqiu and I are only at peace on the surface. If we had the chance, we would not hesitate to eliminate each other."

At this point, Salo Yang Primo suddenly understood, "Lord Gus, I understand. I'll go over immediately and buy this controlled nuclear fusion technology for you at all costs."

Gus shook his head, "Don't rush. Going over now will alert Jing Mingqiu. Wait a moment. Let other countries make their move, and then it won't be too late for us to act."

"By the way, Salo Yang, Jing Mingqiu is at a disadvantage now. When you go to buy the controlled nuclear fusion technology, you should not only drive down the price but also try to get him to include more high-end technologies."

"Which technology doesn't matter. What matters is the quantity and the level. Only in this way can I find the technical loopholes of Jing Mingqiu's civilization in the shortest possible time."

Salo Yang Primo nodded vigorously, "I understand, Lord Gus. Please rest assured, I will handle it perfectly and exchange the most technology from Longguo with the least cost."

Unlike so-called developed countries like the United States, remote and backward regions in Africa and the Middle East didn't think so much.

This was controlled nuclear fusion technology!

With this technology, they could achieve energy freedom and completely solve the problem of energy shortage.

A'qiong Khan, who had cooperated with Longguo many times and was saved by Jing Mingqiu, was the first to call.

"Hello, I am the President of A'qiong Khan. I want to purchase the complete set of controlled nuclear fusion technology."

Longguo readily agreed, "No problem. As the first customer, we can give you a 20% discount. Originally, it required 10 million tons of various ores, but now only 8 million tons are needed."

"This!" Hearing this request, the President of A'qiong Khan looked troubled, "Does it have to be ore? Can't it be cash? If not, I can also transfer the ownership of the mines to Longguo."

A'qiong Khan did not lack minerals. On the contrary, due to its location in a collision zone between two plates, A'qiong Khan had abundant mineral reserves, especially metallic minerals, accounting for multiple world firsts.

Unfortunately, due to years of war, various production facilities were severely damaged. Even with minerals, they lacked the ability to mine them, leaving these precious minerals buried deep underground.

The staff in charge of the project in Longguo heard his words and gently shook their heads, "We are very sorry, we only accept ore here and refuse other payment methods."

"But!" The President of A'qiong Khan broke out in a cold sweat, "I really can't mine so much ore. I can pay more, I will pay the equivalent of 20 million tons of ore, or directly give you ten super-large iron mines. What do you think..."

The Longguo staff quickly appeased him, "Mr. President, please don't worry. If you don't have enough ore, we have many supporting services that can provide you with some help."

"For example: large-scale mine construction projects, controlled nuclear fusion device maintenance projects, and nationwide power line laying projects..."

"I believe that Longguo's construction speed will satisfy you!"

The President of A'qiong Khan's eyes lit up as he listened, "So it can be done like this. I agree, and we can sign the contract immediately. When can these projects start?"

The Longguo staff member smiled and said, "Anytime."

As the two parties signed the electronic contract, the engineering brigades that had been ready at the border of Longguo immediately set off for foreign lands.

Thirty years of major infrastructure construction, coupled with more than fifty years of urbanization, provided Longguo with a massive number of construction workers.

With Jing Mingqiu's invention of the medical pod, which completely solved the problems of disability and injury and rejuvenated the aged workers, Longguo had no shortage of construction workers.

A'qiong Khan was just the beginning. Sha Te A Tui Bo, Yi Lang, and a large number of backward third-world countries in Africa scrambled to exchange their domestic mineral resources with Longguo for controlled nuclear fusion technology.

However, due to the general backwardness of these countries, Longguo received mostly future proceeds from mines rather than actual ore.

Seeing the third-world countries vigorously developing and vigorously promoting controlled nuclear fusion technology with the help of Longguo, the so-called developed countries within Europe became restless.

The Prime Minister of the Commonwealth called his secretary, preparing to contact Longguo, when he suddenly received a call from the current President of the United States, Salo Yang Primo.

"Prime Minister," Salo Yang Primo got straight to the point, "Don't rush to contact Longguo. If you go alone, they will definitely ask for a sky-high price because they have the technology."

"I have already contacted the leader of De Yi Guo, the Prime Minister of Fa Lan Guo, and the King of Dai Shu Guo. I plan to form an alliance to counter the evil Longguo. What do you think?"

Discovering that Salo Yang Primo had already allied with so many people, the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth immediately agreed to Salo Yang Primo's request, "Mr. President, I understand, and I am willing to join the alliance."

After a few polite words, Salo Yang Primo ended the call with the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth.

Subsequently, Salo Yang Primo repeated his tactics, relying on the mutual suspicion between countries and the fact that they would not call to confirm with each other, he successively called the leaders of De Yi Guo, the Prime Minister of Fa Lan Guo, and other countries.

After successfully bringing most of the developed countries into his alliance, Salo Yang Primo immediately convened a joint conference to divide interests and unify their stance...

The next day, a piece of news simultaneously topped the headlines around the world.

"Controlled nuclear fusion technology is related to the future of mankind, and Longguo should share it for free instead of profiting from it!"

The netizens of Longguo, upon seeing this, were so angry they jumped up.

"Damn it, these Western countries are really shameless! Controlled nuclear fusion technology is related to the future of mankind, and Longguo should share it for free!"

"Lithography machines, special anti-cancer drugs, and lunar exploration technology are also related to the future of mankind. Why didn't you share them for free before!"

In the face of the surging anger of Longguo netizens, the public intellectuals and rational commentators who had received "dog food" immediately came out to stir up trouble.

"Researching high-tech requires enormous costs. Western countries did not share for free at the beginning because they wanted to recover costs. Only in this way could they have sufficient resources for continuous research and ensure technological progress for humanity."

"However, Longguo's controlled nuclear fusion technology has not only recovered its costs but has also reaped hundreds of times the profit through sales to third-world countries."

"Moreover, Western civilized countries do not intend to get it for free. They are willing to give Longguo one hundred tons of iron ore as compensation."

"But Longguo not only refused but also wanted to continue selling it at a high price, which is entirely driven by greed and a betrayal of friendship."

"The inherent flaws of the Chinese people are too deep, and they must apologize to the people of the world!"

Faced with these fallacious arguments, Longguo naturally refused and began to counterattack fiercely. However, the West has always firmly controlled the right to speak in public opinion, and they were very skilled in their rhetoric and various tricks.

Soon, the internet was filled with attacks on Longguo. Those who tried to speak for Longguo were labeled as "little pinks" and "wolf warriors."

Seeing Longguo's reputation being ruined, Salo Yang Primo calmly took the satellite phone from his secretary and began to contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Longguo...
