Ice Age Apocalypse: I've Stockpiled Billions of Resources

Huo Junming looked at Ye Yue and said, "Miss Ye, is this also your idea?"

Ye Yue stood by Lin Luo's side: "Whatever Lin Luo means, that's what I mean."

"I hope you won't go back on your word."

Huo Junming left in a huff.

Su Xinyue said with some self-reproach, "Lin Luo, you shouldn't have given up this deal for my sake. Submarines are very important for our underground city to grow stronger."

Lin Luo shook his head and said, "You don't need to blame yourself. Huo Junming is so arrogant. If you go along with him once, he'll do it again."

Ye Yue said, "It's alright, Huo Junming isn't the only one making decisions for the authorities."

After a while, the main person in charge from the authorities arrived. Her name was Huo Shujuan, and she was probably around fifty years old.

Because she takes such good care of herself, she looks like she's only in her forties.

Huo Shujuan brought Huo Junming over, and Huo Junming's face turned ashen.

She asked Lin Luo, "May I ask what caused your Ye family to terminate the transaction?"

Lin Luo replied, "Huo Junming next to you said there was a problem with the vegetables we exchanged. I believe there was nothing wrong with my vegetables. Since he dislikes them, we have no choice but to give up the trade."

Huo Shujuan said coldly, "Huo Junming, those vegetables are very fresh. I didn't find any problems. Where did you get the idea that there was a problem?"

Huo Junming, drenched in sweat, said, "I must have misread it just now."

Huo Shujuan said, "Then there is no problem. Next, your Ye family will give us the food, and the three submarines will be yours. I don't need to teach you how to use them; Jiang Zhiming should know how."

"Ok."

Ye Yue did not make things difficult for Huo Shujuan. The two had already done business together many times and had a good working relationship.

Huo Shujuan said, "Apologize to them."

Huo Junming gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry."

"Just be more careful next time."

Lin Luo said calmly.

Huo Junming's face turned ashen, but he managed to suppress his rage.

Huo Shujuan said, "We have other things to take care of, so we'll take our leave now."

"I won't try to stop you."

Hazuki said.

Huo Shujuan, accompanied by officials, boarded a medium-sized submarine and left.

Ye Yue said with some worry, "This time we've really offended Huo Junming."

Lin Luo comforted him, "There's no need to worry too much. Huo Junming is a coward who only dares to play dirty tricks, not real ones."

Su Xinyue proposed her idea: "Is it possible for us to form an alliance with the Ye family?"

Ye Yue suddenly realized: "How come I didn't think of that? Our Ye family is not what it used to be. It's not difficult to find partners now. Xin Yue, can you do this?"

Su Xinyue nodded and said, "It's possible. Last time, the authorities wanted to cooperate with us because they believed that the underground city families were quite powerful and had seriously affected their decisions."

"Then let's make good contact. Huo Shujuan speaks very politely, but who knows what she's really thinking. Now that all three submarines have returned, they can't just cancel the deal, or they'll become a laughing stock."

"Huo Shujuan and Huo Junming are aunt and niece. Her demand for Huo Junming to apologize is likely just an act to put on a show for us, to lower our guard. She might cause us trouble next time. To be on the safe side, we still need to find someone else to cooperate with, or at least someone to cooperate with on an equal footing in the future."

Ye Yue had traded with Huo Shujuan several times, and on many occasions, the Ye family's underground city suffered losses.

In this transaction involving three submarines, the Ye family's underground city clearly suffered a loss, as the total amount of food far exceeded the value of the three submarines.

The Ye family's underground city has become powerful, and some things need to be changed.

Jiang Zhiming returned and began testing the three submarines, showing little concern for the previous conflict.

Recently, things have been getting better and better in the Ye family's underground city, and he believes that Ye Yue and Lin Luo can handle it properly.

Especially Su Xinyue, who is next to Lin Luo, is much more capable than Ye Zhengxiong, who is younger.

Su Xinyue evenly allocated the resources of the underground city and distributed them reasonably to everyone.

Even the prisoners in the jail cells are eating much better food than before.

At first, many prisoners thought it was their last meal when they ate the good food, and they began to express their last words and regrets. They only calmed down after they learned the truth.

...

The medium-sized submarine, Huojia.

Sitting in the luxurious chair, Huo Junming said with great dissatisfaction, "Aunt, why should I apologize to that guy from the Ye family? We are clearly on the official side. If they dare to offend us, we can make things difficult for them."

Huo Shujuan said coldly, "Are you trying to make things difficult for the Ye family, to discourage them, and to make them turn to other official forces?"

Huo Junming retorted, "Isn't it just some food? Other dungeons have that too."

“I would have agreed with you if you had said that before, but not now.”

Huo Shujuan said, "In the past, the Ye family's underground city was not considered outstanding among the many underground cities. Whether our Huo family had it or not, there was not much difference. But now it's different. The quality of the food there is something you can't find in other underground cities, especially the vegetables, which are very fresh."

"Is it so exaggerated?"

Huo Junming didn't check carefully; he just glanced at the vegetables and said they were no good.

The submarine surfaced, and waiters placed plates on the table, then brought out beef and lettuce.

"It's been a long time since I've had barbecue, let me try it."

Huo Shujuan said with anticipation.

Oil was placed on the grill pan, and marbled beef was placed on it, sizzling under the heat of the charcoal fire.

Huo Junming sniffed hard: "It smells so good."

"Try it."

Huo Shujuan couldn't resist picking up a lettuce leaf first, and then stuffing a piece of beef that was grilled to medium-rare.

She took a big bite, her mouth filled with the tenderness of the beef.

"delicious!"

Huo Junming also took a bite of beef wrapped in lettuce and ate it.

In less than ten minutes, the two of them finished off a plate of beef and lettuce.

Huo Junming said, "I didn't agree with Auntie's statement just now, but now I agree with you. The Ye family's underground city has recently obtained beef and vegetables from somewhere, and they taste particularly delicious."

Huo Shujuan said, "So this time I chose to back down."

Huo Junming refused to give up, saying, "Aunt, my problem isn't serious, but if other underground cities know about the Ye family, they might look down on our Huo family."

Huo Shujuan thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "You're right about that. The Ye family needs to be punished, otherwise they'll become more and more arrogant. I'll make things difficult for them next time."

"Okay, Auntie."

Huo Junming said happily.

Huo Shujuan said, "I still need to see if the Ye family will contact any other officials."

...

Ye Family Underground City.

prison.

"time to eat!"

A familiar voice came from outside the door.

"Time to eat again, but I don't know what to eat today."

Liu Xinghuo and the others were very happy and looked forward to lunch.

They are willing to lose their freedom, as long as they can be provided with food and lodging.

All ten people in Ye's prison have gained a lot of weight.
