Chapter 79 Intelligence Trading Biological and Chemical Weapons
"Mr. Zhou, there is an old Chinese saying that people don't say secret words. You don't have to be so cautious." Alfred took out the cup with a relaxed look, poured two glasses of wine and pushed it in front of Zhou Yi. "Your identity cannot stand scrutiny, right?"
"Let me tell me!" Zhou Yi sat down. Since he had discovered his hidden identity, he could only take one step.
"There are not many people in the world who are able to develop that kind of metal armor. Mr. Tony Stark does not have such time. Osborne is still studying in the UK, so there are not many goals left." Alfred smiled confidently. "Just just monitor the relevant scientific research institutions, it is easy to draw such a conclusion."
"Tell me, what do you want to get from me so that you can hide this secret in your stomach forever." Zhou Yi asked with a cold face. "Is it just 100 million US dollars?"
"No, no, Mr. Zhou may not understand what I mean. I am not blackmailing." Alfred waved his hand and looked innocent. "I am just seeking cooperation. That identity is just a stepping stone for me. I don't want to use this kind of thing to get anything from you from Mr. Zhou. I have already said that all I want is a deal."
"Trade, you say trading. I don't think any information is worth 100 million US dollars." Zhou Yi directly picked up the cup and breathed a little more soothing after a sip of wine.
"For ordinary people, this news may not be worth that much. But for the New York superhero, or a billionaire like you, it is absolutely worth the money." Alfred picked up another cup. "Of course, the credibility of a person like you is worth my advance payment."
"Please, if you really have the mentality of fair trade." He raised the cup in his hand. Zhou Yi made an listening gesture, waiting for Alfred to say the news worth 100 million.
"Maybe you already know the experiment that Mr. Makinos has been doing. He once obtained a virus sample, and that sample is the key to all his experiments. And you seem to be looking for the source of this virus sample, right?"
Nodding, Zhou Yi agreed with Alfred's guess. But Alfred continued.
"This virus sample comes from the Victor family in the UK. Of course, you need to find it yourself if you have any further clues."
"Do you think such information is worth 100 million?" Zhou Yi sneered, and expressed his dissatisfaction. Using such superficial clues to exchange for 100 million funds was simply a delusion.
"This is just an appetizing side dish, and for you it only represents a little bit of my care. The reason I mentioned this clue is because it has a lot to do with the meal I will mention. But..."
"I will arrange it. Within 24 hours, 100 million US dollars will be paid to your books." Zhou Yi, who was impatient, spoke directly and gave the price he wanted. Of course, he also had the confidence to do so. After all, the Yashiford family is a nobleman who has existed for hundreds of years, and he would not have cheated him for this little money.
"You are a honest businessman. Of course, so do I!" Alfred smiled. "The rest of the meal is extraordinary, believe me. If you do it properly, maybe Umbrella will be in your name."
"Umbrella is not a simple product. Are you sure you are not joking?" Zhou Yi became serious this time. If Alfred was not joking, her news would indeed be worth the price. Of course, the premise is that the detailed content of his news can achieve the effect he said.
Alfred showed a confident expression, and he began to explain his news to Zhou Yi in detail.
"Umbrella is an enterprise with huge capabilities. I believe you must be very clear about this. His industries include medical care, biological research, and five weapon development. Although they are not as large as Stark and Osborne in terms of scale, they are definitely the forefront of the world."
"How many shameful things will be in such a company? People like us will know some inside information. These things may not be suitable for public exposure, but they are not secrets for us."
"However, Umbrella has a dangerous project, which is a real secret, and many people don't know much about it. But as a descendant of the founder who founded the company, I do know some of it. This secret has a huge threat to the world."
"Threat, you're not kidding." Zhou Yi felt that Alfred was a little alarmist. There were threatening things everywhere in this world, and even several huge nuclear power plants under Osborne's name were operating. If something went wrong with them, it was also a huge threat.
"The real threat is more terrifying than the threat of a nuclear bomb." Alfred said his own comparison. "There may not be a big impact on the world, but if the secret results are leaked, the death toll may be much greater for humans than nuclear bombs or something!"
"Biochemical Weapon?" Zhou Yi sat upright. If it was a biological and chemical weapon that was explicitly prohibited internationally, it could indeed become the capital to shake this behemoth. However, it was just shaken. It was not that easy to go further.
"Yes, a biological weapon, or rather a biological virus, a biological virus that can create a new situation!" Alfred gave a clear answer.
And the moment he gave the answer, Zhou Yi thought of the monster that Asa became, which was also a terrible transformation completed through virus experiments.
"Decades ago, my grandfather Edward Yassift and several of his friends discovered an ancient biological virus in the off-tourist African region. This virus is an undiscovered virus found in the plant's sun ladder, and it has the ability to change the chromosomes of biological cells. In some ways, it can even promote the evolution of organisms."
"Since my grandfather discovered this virus, my grandfather and others founded Umbrella. They have always used this virus as the company's top secret and have been developing it for decades. Unfortunately, since my grandfather passed away, my incompetent father has been unable to retain his grandfather's position in the company. By now, the Yashiford family has been reduced to the edge of Umbrella. We have been squeezed out for the development of the virus."
"So you can betray Umbrella's secret without any scruples?" He showed a sarcastic look. He had a new understanding of this noble son of a famous European family.
"The betrayal is never because of not being loyal enough, but because the price is too high! For Aceford, Umbrella has no value anymore. Why not use the result of his inevitable death to seek more benefits for himself?" After frankly admitting his thoughts, Alfred showed a truly aristocratic style, the kind of style that would do anything to do for his own benefit.
"Sorry, so far, I have not seen any signs of Umbrella's impending death." Zhou Yi interrupted him with a sneer without wanting to discuss this issue with Alfred.
"My friend, patience is a virtue." Alfred seemed extremely tolerant to his financial supporter, and he said tirelessly. "Where was just mentioned, by the way. Umbrella's core, the ancestor virus."
"It has a very powerful capability, but it is difficult to fully develop it according to current technology. Umbrella has been working hard and has achieved results in some aspects. Do you want to guess what it is?"
"It's definitely not medical." As a weapon businessman, Zhou Yi naturally knew what to do for a company is the real huge profit. "They used this virus to develop biological weapons?"
"Yes, my friend. You are very wise!" Alfred smiled maliciously. "Under the temptation of interests, they had long given up the most correct path of the ancestor virus and chose a dangerous route. Umbrella's current powerhouse reached an agreement with important figures in the US military. They wanted to use this virus to improve the US military's super soldier plan. But unexpectedly, they developed a dangerous thing."
"This biological weapon is extremely terrible infectious and lesions. The information I have in my hands at present proves that if it is not effectively curbed, just a slight outbreak may turn a city into a dead city!"
Somewhat shocked by Alfred's news, Zhou Yi first tried hard to sort out his thoughts and then asked.
"I don't believe that Umbrella does not have a sufficiently strict protection for such a thing. As long as they protect it well, the problem you are talking about does not exist at all."
"It's like this in theory! But there are always exceptions, right?" Alfred smiled. "I know that it's not just me who has the idea of this thing. Those people are not just selling news, many of them have the idea of destroying Umbrella. For this reason, they have sent elite spies. You know, no matter how solid the castle is, it can't resist the collapse inside. Think about it, what will happen to Umbrella who needs to bear this responsibility once the secret is leaked and the crisis breaks out?"
"If what you said is true, then I'm sure this transaction can be barely fair. Now I have only one last question?" Zhou Yi asked as he stood up and pressed the table.
"Please say it, my friend. I am very happy to complete the last part of this transaction!"
"Where is the place where you are studying biological weapons? Don't say you don't know. I know that you still hold part of the security power of Umbrella in your hand. In such an important place, Umbrella must have strong security. This kind of thing cannot be passed through you!"
"You are right. I know there. But does that mean to you? My friend, you just need to wait and wait to acquire Umbrella. There is no need to understand the answer to this question."
"I need this answer!" Zhou Yi acted firmly.
Alfred chose to compromise. This completely unimportant issue is not worthy of the impact of his relationship with Zhou Yi.
"City of Laken! Friend, right in the depths of the city founded by Umbrella!"
"Good! Then, goodbye. Mr. Alfred, if you can. I really don't want to make such a deal with you again."
