This game is too real.

Chapter 365 Cheapness is one of the advantages of our weapons
"...the enterprise expedition team appeared in the northern suburbs?"

Jushi Military Building, Chairman's Office.

Ibers, who was sitting behind the desk, had surprise written all over his face after listening to his subordinate's report.

Unlike people like Malvern and Dulong, he certainly didn't need to get information about the northern suburbs through the "Daily Survivor". As early as late yesterday, he learned about it from an eyeliner disguised as a mercenary and a caravan guard. , a group of caravans suspected to be from Ideal City appeared in the northern suburbs.

After a night of investigation, he was finally convinced that those people were professional soldiers of the enterprise.

"...Why do people from the enterprise appear here?" A trace of fear floated in Ibbers' eyes.

Unlike the nobles in the inner city, his attitude towards enterprises is more of a respectful distance.

According to past experience, rashly getting involved with those behemoths won't do any good.

Especially last year when the company and the Legion had a fight in the northern suburbs. God knows why these people came here.

Standing next to him, the old secretary seemed to be with him, speaking slowly.

"Could it be related to last year's Pioneer?"

"I think so too."

Rubbing the center of his brows with his index finger, Ibbers pondered for a long time before suddenly speaking.

"Anyway, we've got to find out what they're here for."

asked the old secretary.

"Do you need to report this to the city lord?"

Ebbers said succinctly.

"Just a routine report."

Reporting or not reporting, in fact, there is no difference.

He has his own intelligence network, and of course the wise and stalwart city lord also has one.

However, as the most loyal servant of that lord, he should report the news as soon as he gets the news.

It doesn't matter whether the city lord knows it or not.

This is what he should do...

……

As the news of the arrival of the company's "visiting group" spread, the entire Qingquan City became lively.

In particular, the business owners, factory owners, and nobles in the inner city of Boulder City all cast fiery and even jealous eyes on the northern suburbs.

How on earth do those bloody rednecks get corporate friendships?
Of course, what they care more about than jealousy is the business opportunity contained in this news.

That was a visiting group from Ideal City!

Just one or two items brought here can sell for unimaginable sky-high prices.

The commoners in Boulder City have no spending power, but the nobles in the inner city are all rich.

Their industries are all over the entire Boulder City, and there is no shortage of money to spend, only places to spend money.

Whether it's the bionic prosthetic body that enhances the body's ability, or the serum that delays aging, it's enough to drive the entire inner city crazy...

Just when Qingquan City was busy, Xizhou City, a hundred kilometers away, was not bad at all.

But the difference is that the two sides are completely different lively...

Next to the crudely built platform, boxes and bundles of materials piled up on the material pile formed a hill.

Looking at the materials that looked like a hill, whether it was the foremen of the construction aid team or the survivors of Dawn City, their faces were full of surprised expressions.

"170 tons of grain, 81 tons of croissants, 1000 pieces of cotton overalls, 1000 pairs of rubber-soled boots, 11 boxes of medical gauze and alcohol..."

Holding the cargo list handed over by the train conductor, Rudy, who read in a low voice, was full of surprise on his face and couldn't believe his eyes.

The supplies on the list are exactly what they need most.

Especially work clothes and waterproof shoes.

It had been raining for several days before, and the northern construction site was low-lying, almost soaked in puddles.

There is no water pump, in order to drain the water, the workers can only go to the ground with iron buckets.

Ordinary straw sandals, wooden shoes, and shoes made of bark are not waterproof at all, and the number of waterproof shoes made of plastic is limited, and many people's feet are soaked.

There are also medical gauze and alcohol, which are even more necessary for construction sites where bumps often occur.

Without sterilized and bandaged medical supplies, even a small injury may become inflamed and suppurated, turning into a serious problem.

Not to mention food, that thing is very precious at any time in the wasteland.

You can endure the shortage of other things, but you can't work when you are hungry.

There are 3 people in Dawn City, and 251 tons of food, combined with the prey and fish caught by the residents of the shelter, is enough for two weeks of expenses!
After a while, he swallowed and said.

"...Is this the pre-war reserve?"

Before becoming the captain of the aid team, he was the commander of the ten men under Vanus, and he followed the legion in the north and south for several years.In my impression, such a rich material reserve is hard to see even in some wealthy survivor settlements.

The new alliance may be able to get these supplies, but it is absolutely impossible to get them together in such a short time.

Looking at Rudy with a dumbfounded face, the train conductor said with a smile.

"What are you picking up? These things were all bought from Boulder City! By the way, let me tell the people in the warehouse that there will be a batch of supplies delivered in three days. Let them expand the warehouse to avoid getting lost Times are hectic."

Rudy, who came back to his senses, nodded immediately and said seriously.

"I'm going to explain to them!"

With the materials in storage.

The news about this shipment also spread among the survivors.

lunch time.

Several foremen of the construction aid team squatted together with the workers, eating with bowls and chatting away gossip they heard from other people.

"...I heard! It's a material imported from Boulder City!"

"Not just living supplies, but also generators and power distribution devices... probably for power grids!"

"It will cost a lot of chips, right?"

"That's for sure... at least it will cost 10,000+."

"10,000+? Hundreds of thousands is almost the same!"

Hearing that these supplies actually cost so much money, many people showed emotional expressions on their faces, so that they lost their minds for a moment.

Especially those survivors who lived in Qingquan City when they were young.

The refugees have no idea of ​​the purchasing power of the chips, but they know how many good things those chips can be exchanged for.

Not to mention hundreds of thousands of chips, a three-digit chip is an astronomical sum for them, and a five-digit chip is simply not a wealth that ordinary people can have.

In their cognition, only the former mayor of Beit Street and the old Brown of Brown Farm can have so many bargaining chips.

But those penny-pinching iron cocks will not spend their chips on other people.

They can't wait to hold every chip firmly in their hands, not to mention spending it on others, and they are even reluctant to spend more on themselves.

For them, the biggest ambition in this life is to save enough chips to move into the giant wall, squeeze their sharp heads into the upper class there, and spend their old age in luxury and abundance.

It's really bad, it's also a good choice to buy a few buildings on the edge of the outer city as an apartment.

They are willing to take out their bargaining chips and spend them on ordinary people like them without hesitation. After thinking about it, there is only that benevolent manager...

……

On the other side, in the eastern district of Xizhou City, on an abandoned street.

A group of survivors are methodically moving their luggage out of the collapsed subway station and stacking it in an open space not far from the subway station.

In the open space a little further away, there are more than 30 container houses and dozens of barracks moved out of the underground tunnel.

The construction site that the assistance team is responsible for is not only Liming City, but also Camp No. 101 located in the eastern district of Xizhou City.

Since the Bonechewing Tribe has perished, Xizhou City has restored its former tranquility, and the residents of Camp 101 will also return to the surface and return the buffer zone at the gate of the shelter to the "pioneers".

Chu Guang promised to help the residents of Camp 101 rebuild their homes.

A week ago, workers from the Union arrived here.

A total of 200 people participated in the construction.

20 of them are foremen from Dawn City, and 180 are survivors of Dawn City.

In addition to this, there were patrols from the 2nd Corps, responsible for security around the camp.

After all, mutated hyenas, rats, cockroaches, flies the size of washbasins, and blood-sucking worms with needles longer than arms—those alien species that couldn’t be killed would not go with the predators.

Especially after summer, the number of alien species active in the ruins has more than doubled compared to two months ago.

Fortunately, a group of enthusiastic little players turned them into ingredients, so that the group of alien species would not flood to an unbearable level...

Out of consideration for its own future, Camp No. 101 finally decided to set up the new camp at the former site of Xizhou University not far from No. 101 Refuge after referring to Chu Guang's suggestion.

The terrain there is relatively flat.

Although the building was severely damaged, this was an advantage, at least it wouldn't be too troublesome to dismantle.

On the wasteland, demolishing buildings is far more troublesome than building them.

Some houses obviously looked crumbling, as if they would collapse with a push, but in fact, they were fine after being hit by two 100kg aerial bombs.

Especially in "Wasteland OL", the buildings that are blown down will not turn into ashes and disappear like in other RTS games, and there is a high probability that they will form a wall across the ground.

Large pieces of construction waste cannot be moved away at all, and must be broken into small pieces to be transported.

And this is the reason why Dawn City and Dawn City are built in the suburbs with low building density.

According to the drawings in the plan, the first phase of Camp No. 101 covers an area of ​​30 mu, spreading around the former library site of Xizhou University.

After the completion of the third phase of the project, the entire camp will basically cover the core area of ​​the former Xizhou University, covering an astonishing 500 acres.

Although Horn, the mayor of the camp, said dumbfoundedly that they could not use so much space, Chu Guang still generously drew this big pie.

Can't use it?
Of course he knew that this small village with only two to three hundred people would not need so much land.

But he and Horn had different considerations.

In Chu Guang's view, it is the future "National University" of the Alliance, a holy place for academic exchanges and technical research.

A mere 500 mu.

He is too young!

However, the meal has to be eaten bite by bite.

For now, three to 101 students is almost the limit for the number of students Camp 500 can accommodate.

The [-] mu planned for the first phase is completely enough, and it is enough to build two five-story teaching buildings.

After nearly a week of construction, this brand new camp has begun to take shape.

Although there is no shadow of the teaching building yet, boxy barracks are already standing in the open space.

The space here is much more spacious than the underground, they don't have to put all the houses next to each other, and a large area can be reserved at the door of each barracks as a private space.

The children were laughing and playing in the camp, chasing and running.

The construction site not far away was in full swing, and a concrete building of unknown purpose was already half built.

In order to prevent the alien species from breaking into the camp, the fence of the camp was pulled up with a circle of barbed wire, and steel bars were pierced into the soil.

Standing at the gate of the brand-new camp, Pai's eyes widened in surprise, and his small mouth seemed to be able to stuff an egg into it.

It hasn't been two weeks since she left home, and everyone has moved from the ground to the surface!

This is too fast!

"Pay?"

Looking at the little girl standing at the gate of the camp, Tris showed a gentle smile on his face, "Are you back?"

Hearing the voice of the "janitor", Pai immediately recovered from his astonishment, and with a complacent expression on his face, he puffed up his chest and said.

"Well! The task was successfully completed!"

Although there was an airy expression on his face, those big eyes couldn't help but look around curiously.

"By the way, is this our new home?"

Tris nodded and said with a smile.

"Well, originally we planned to move from the underground to the surface in two months, but the progress was smoother than expected. Thanks to those kind people, we only took one week to do so much thing."

Of course, so thankful they defeated the group of bloodthirsty marauders.

No one likes living underground, suffering from damp and darkness and unpalatable food.

For him, there is nothing more satisfying than watching children run in the sun.

Having said that, Triss said with a smile when he saw the thirty young people behind Pai.

"Are you all students of the New Alliance?"

Xia Yan, who was walking in front of the team, nodded and said cleanly.

"Yes, the administrator asked us to report to that old... teacher named Aiwen. Can you tell us where he is?"

Even though she said so, at the moment she doesn't look like a student at all, she is completely dressed like a wasteland mercenary.

A durable leather jacket was worn over the shirt, with bulging magazines in the pockets, and an LD-47 assault rifle hung on the back.

Tris didn't care.

He, who often dealt with wastelanders, didn't feel any surprise, and still had that gentle expression on his face.

"Ivan is still sorting out the materials in the document library underground, and it will take a few days to come up. He is Pai's teacher, and I think Pai should be able to guide you to find him."

Pai nodded vigorously, and turned his head to give Xiayan and Xiaoyu a reliable look.

"Hmm! Don't worry, leave it to me! I just happen to be going underground!"

She did not forget the agreement with Chu Guang, and discussed with the manager of No. 101 shelter about borrowing the VM.

Tris nodded with a smile.

"Then please."

"However, before you go underground, you might as well pack up the luggage you brought."

"We have prepared a dormitory for you, next to the school in the camp... Please come with me."

……

Camp No. 101 has only been under construction for less than two weeks. Although it is already inhabited, the conditions are still a bit rough.

But even so, the local residents still prepared two-person barracks as dormitories for these students from the new alliance.

The relationship between the two parties is in the honeymoon period, and the new alliance has not been stingy with aid to them, and they will naturally not be stingy with taking care within their capabilities.

While Boss Xia and his team were busy packing their luggage, Chu Guang, who was far away in Dawn City, was also busy.

The first is to add new production lines for ammunition, weapons and accessories.

Although this was primarily the responsibility of the industrial estate staff and Ministry of Industry officials, it took time to introduce the commando logistics personnel to them and arrange the work.

After finishing these things, Chu Guang then took Yun Song to the shooting range and showed off the alliance's weapons.

Including LD series assault rifles and 20mm light cavalry guns and 37mm heavy cavalry guns, and 60mm mortars and so on.

And a portable, versatile RPG bazooka!
Especially the latter, although it is a bit difficult to face heavy vehicles, and there is no automatic tracking and laser guidance, so it can only be aimed visually, but at medium and short distances, it is completely sufficient to deal with some light and medium armor and vehicles!

Replace it with a high-explosive grenade that kills fragments, and it is perfect for dealing with unarmored light infantry!

After a few test shots, Yun Song immediately purchased 120 launchers, 500 rounds of armor-piercing shells and 700 rounds of high-explosive grenades with joy on his face!
While the penetration of chemical HEAT shells is more than a little worse than that of plasma shells and rail guns, they don't always encounter opponents worth using plasma HEAT shells.

And just like Chu Guang said, a sufficient quantity is also an advantage.

With these weapons, a company of light infantry under him can instantly become an "anti-tank company"!
With the help of the exoskeleton, it is not a problem to bring a few more high-explosive grenades!

Of course, the biggest reason why Yunsong placed the order so readily was that these weapons were all priced in silver coins, and his logistics officer helped him negotiate a good price with the trade items they brought.

So when he bought, bought, bought, he didn't feel any distress at all.

Looking at the launch tube emitting blue smoke and the target that was blown into pieces in the distance, Yun Song said with a joyful expression on his face.

"Is it really okay to sell us 100 silver coins? Is it too cheap?"

It was the first time Chu Guang saw someone who thought his products were too cheap, so he couldn't help but said with a smile.

"Cheapness is one of the advantages of our weapons."

Seeing the friend in front of him finally realize the charm of goblin technology, Chu Guang was also sincerely happy for him.

Finally, someone digested the huge stockpile of weapons generated by the Northern Expedition for him.

But then again.

Wearing this kind of power armor with a sense of technology, but carrying an antique rocket launcher on his shoulder.

No matter how you look at this combination, it is full of weirdness.

Looking at the launch tube he was carrying on his shoulder, Chu Guang said with some regret.

"It's a pity that there is no uranium or plutonium... Otherwise we can get some more powerful tactical nuclear bombs out."

Power armor with individual nuclear bomb launchers.

That makes more sense!

However, the man carrying the launch tube didn't think so much.

Compared with the problem of painting style, he cares more about whether it is easy to use.

Obviously, this weapon is quite to his liking.

"Haha, that's not necessary! Conventional weapons are powerful enough to deal with general threats," Yun Song said with a smile, looking at Chu Guang, "Thank you, brother! I like your weapons very much!"

"You're welcome, our harvest is not small." Chu Guang said with a smile.

He purchased a full 4000 sets of "Miner" I-type exoskeletons with metal hydrogen batteries and a retail price of 100CR.

Not only that, there is also a 200 yuan per kilogram metal hydrogen battery, which is quite useful whether it is used for energy storage or as an explosive.

Chu Guang spent less than 100 million silver coins in total to purchase these goods.

And based on the value of these goods, even if they were resold to Boulder City, the value of these goods would be far more than 100 million chips!
Aside from these "regular" gear, there's a whole bunch of stuff that's not so easy to come by.

For example, a bionic kidney produced by Ideal City.

Put this thing in Boulder City, and one can be sold for 50 chips!
However, Chu Guang negotiated the transaction price with He Ding for only 27 silver coins, and the refuge official directly purchased five coins.

Although he doesn't need it very much, it's still quite good to sell it as a trade item to the merchants who came to the northern suburbs from Boulder City.

In addition to the goods from Ideal City, there are also the spoils captured by the soldiers along the way.

To be honest, Chu Guang didn't have much hope for those trophies at first.

After all, the situation in the eastern provinces is not much better than that of the valley provinces, so what good things can there be?
However, the reality is beyond his expectation...
