章節 79: Negotiation Failed

Henry and Gordon were both angry and frustrated. They were telling the truth, but it was evident that the others didn't believe them.

That was what frustrated them the most. But they felt more anger than frustration.

The Moonian scientists had worked for them for thirty years. During that time, they had made significant contributions, and their research had supported their economy. Instead of showing gratitude, they were asking for compensation now.

And the amount was in trillions.

That was outrageous!

How preposterous!

Koji said, "We won't ask for too much. One trillion will do."

"Woodia wants a trillion, too."

"The same with Winland."

"Soilia values scientific research and has invested heavily in this field. Therefore, we'll ask for one and a half trillion. Director Lang, General Marlow, please make the payment as quickly as you can manage."
