Chapter 153 The Theory of "It's Really Good"
"Of course, I know that no matter how eloquently I express my sincerity, it won't reach your ears. This is a contract that we drafted after discussing it. Please take a look; it has been certified by the AI."
After Yufei finished speaking, she sent a document to Odin, gesturing for him to take a look. At the same time, a cartoon character resembling a lawyer appeared in front of them.
He's dressed in a suit and tie, wearing framed glasses—yet the character is a chibi-style figure, full of unexpected charm.
"Intelligent Lawyer ID: At your service, I have been entrusted by Ms. Liu Yufei to conduct a fair assessment of the cooperation between the two parties. Your request to the AI 'Master Meng' has been accepted. The documents you sign will be legally binding. If either party breaches the contract, the breaching party will be punished by the intelligent enforcement team."
I will now explain the contract that both parties need to sign. Please feel free to raise any objections with me.
After the AI lawyer finished speaking, it began reading the contents of the contract to both parties. Since the contract was discussed and decided upon by Yufei and her team, they already knew its contents by heart.
Therefore, this contract was primarily read to Odin, who had been leaning back in his rocking chair with a sullen face and an indifferent expression, the chair swaying gently.
As if asleep, Odin's rocking chair gradually slowed down as the AI lawyer read the contract more and more. His hands, which had been closed, slowly opened, staring incredulously at Yufei and the others.
After the AI lawyer finished reading the contract and asked both parties if they had any objections, Odin spoke up.
"Are you... serious about this contract?"
"Yes!" Yufei nodded affirmatively.
Odin received their affirmative reply and looked at them as if they were idiots. If it weren't for the fact that this was verified by the AI, he would have thought these people were playing him for fools.
The AI certification contract is something even the Dawn Base Chief cannot breach; any breach will result in trial and sanctions from a joint enforcement team comprised of all bases.
Those captured and sent to high-radiation zones as exploration pioneers face no risk to their lives. Therefore, even the powerful and influential in Area A dare not violate the agreement certified by the AI. Most transactions in Area A are conducted without the AI's involvement.
After all, everyone has their own ulterior motives. This is only used in extremely large transactions where the slightest mistake is unacceptable, and only when one party strongly demands impartiality from the AI.
Odin hadn't expected that this group, in order to show their sincerity in cooperating with him, not only skewed the contract's benefits almost entirely in his favor, but also hired an AI to conduct impartial due diligence.
"Why?" Odin had no doubt that these people were in cahoots with the others, but he simply couldn't understand why businessmen shouldn't pursue profit. These people were essentially helping him for free.
"For world peace," Yufei said, seeing that Odin had already believed they were sincerely cooperating and had let down his guard. She then playfully teased him.
Odin was utterly embarrassed, and only after he felt like he could dig a Dawn Base out with his feet did he become serious.
"It wouldn't be entirely true to say we didn't want such a great invention to be forgotten; we're not that great yet. That's just one insignificant, small reason. The most important thing is that we actually feel we've profited from this."
We are very optimistic about the future of this invention. If you have sufficient funding, I believe you will further improve it. What we strive for most is a win-win situation.
There's a saying here: "If you want the horse to run, feed it first." I believe that fully protecting Grandpa Odin's interests can help you create more wealth for our future.
We are not just investing in this product, but in you as a person.
Yufei frankly explained their purpose and their projected future.
Odin gave them a deep look, had the AI lawyer add a clause that Yufei and her family would have permanent priority purchase rights for all his products, and then signed his name.
This last clause was a concession to Yufei and the others. His decisive signing of his name demonstrated his resolve and attitude, and Yufei, without much hesitation, also signed her name.
After signing the contract, the initial investment of 1 million Dawn Coins, as promised in the contract, was transferred to Odin via a smart wristband.
"I'm so happy today, it's my treat! Don't leave tonight, have dinner here before you go," Odin said happily to Yufei and the others.
"Um... Grandpa Odin, you're treating us! We'll cook, come eat at our place!" Hearing Odin say he was treating them to a meal, Lei Jun and the others felt a stomachache just thinking about the unforgettable meal Kukoc had treated them to on the day they arrived.
Let them experience the delicious food of Daxia! Yufei quickly stopped Odin from treating them.
This angered the arrogant old man, who shouted that they looked down on him. Lei Jun, as if he hadn't heard, dragged him to their rented place and also invited Li Yong's family.
After all, Li Yong had contributed a lot to this matter, and he also invited the Kukoc father and his two sons, as well as Li Yong's nephew, Li Pingdong.
When they arrived at Yufei's rented house, Odin sat angrily in the yard, declaring that he would rather starve than eat their food! He felt they looked down on him, and insisted that he would treat them.
Yufei and Lei Jun pretended to be deaf and dumb and busied themselves. They didn't believe that he could resist when the food from their Great Xia was ready. They wanted to show him the power of their Great Xia cuisine!
Yufei made braised pork, stewed cured pork with bamboo shoots, cured sausage, stir-fried dried radish with pork, stewed pork with vermicelli, sweet and sour pork, and the only green vegetable, sweet potato leaves.
The pork was provided by the Kukoc father and son, and the sweet potato leaves were from sweet potatoes they brought with them that had sprouted.
In the wasteland, vegetables are a luxury. There are only two ways to obtain them: one is through the occasional stroke of luck by scavenging teams who manage to find vegetables within the radiation range suitable for human consumption in the wild.
Another type is the collective cultivation of some vegetables in the base development zone, but after so many years of natural selection, these vegetables are no longer the same as before.
Yufei and her friends tried the vegetables here; they were bitter and astringent, and took a long time to chew, which really didn't suit the taste of most Chinese people. They said they would be more suitable for use as Chinese medicinal herbs.
They brought a lot of sweet potatoes with them when they came to this space, but they didn't expect to return to such a radiation-filled world. On their first day in this world, some of the sweet potatoes couldn't withstand the radiation and died.
Fortunately, a small portion of the sweet potatoes survived. Apart from what they ate during this period, the rest of the sweet potatoes sprouted leaves to supplement their vitamin needs.
After they finished preparing the meal, the Kukoc father and his two sons arrived at their small courtyard right on time, their eyes shining as they stared at the dishes, waiting only for the order to start eating.
Odin watched the three people pouncing on their food with the vicious dog, the Li Yong family gradually increasing their chopsticks as they picked up food, and the faint aroma making his heart itch with anticipation.
Under Yufei and her friends' enthusiastic and repeated invitations, she reluctantly picked up her chopsticks and bowl, emphasizing repeatedly that she only tried because their invitations were so overly enthusiastic.
But after taking his first bite of braised pork, he realized what he had been doing for the past 70 years: utter shit!
This is so delicious, so fragrant! Hey! Hey! Don't you young man understand the importance of respecting your elders?!
