Men's Kapishi

"Isn't it because the board of directors felt that it would be a safety hazard to let so many people in, so they all blocked them in the valley and put them in one by one, and the base walkers from the logistics department waited to collect them one by one in Caishi Street."

"Caishi Street? What is it?"

"Go in from the west entrance, and set up a temporary vegetable market. Usually, some vegetable vendors and small merchants do business there. We buy a lot here, and we don't have to pay taxes. Gradually, local people from nearby also come to buy and sell things. , there are not so many people at ordinary times!" Egg Yolk put down his personal terminal and directed the team members to continue to clear the flow of people.

"Usually there are not many people, and there are not many local people, but then I found out that every month on this day, there are convoys coming in to deliver goods. At first, I was just curious, but later more and more people gathered, and it became a monthly market. It can be lively for two people. Three days!"

Chapter 98 Chapter 42

Entering the basin from the valley, I saw that not far from the exit is a huge parking area that has been leveled and covered with gravel.Although crude, all kinds of signs and Peugeot lines are quite complete and orderly.

This should have a lot to do with the two LAVs parked next to each other, with their turrets rotating and scanning from time to time for vigilance.In particular, there were two pieces of wreckage smashed into tatters by [-]mm guns on a mound of soil on the right side of the checkpoint, which played a huge deterrent effect.

All the drivers and passengers who were waiting for the inspection got out of the car very cooperatively, obediently opened the container and waited for the inspection by the Vajfan fighters.

Escorted by Egg Yolk and his team members, the Sami convoy headed by Haizi naturally did not need any inspection, and passed through the checkpoint smoothly through the fast lane. Egg Yolk and the marines who came out to greet him also boarded their LAV and escorted them The convoy advances like a Red Bank base in the center of the basin.

After passing the checkpoint, Haizi noticed the market not far away, and guessed that it should be the Xikou vegetable market that Egg Yolk mentioned.

The third and fourth rows have the atmosphere of the 89s and look like awnings built with colored steel tiles. Underneath the awnings are crowded stalls and recommended shops, and the people inside are crowded with each other.

Even though the armor and bulletproof windows completely cut off the sound from outside the car, Haizi can still imagine in his mind that the market must be full of people and full of market atmosphere.

There are so many people gathered in the Xikou vegetable market, but there is no trouble. Except that it is not far from the inspection point, Haizi also saw seven or eight old men and women with red armbands standing there chatting at the entrance-this wave of operation is really good. Haizi's scalp is numb, and he must ask someone to understand when he gets to the place.

In fact, the popularity of the Xikou Vegetable Market was completely beyond everyone's expectations, because it was originally only used as a temporary storage and inspection area for purchased goods, and it was not planned to be a public market.

It's just that people who travel through time can eat too much. Not only can they eat, but they also have money.

The logistics department of Karak Heavy Industries, especially the cafeteria, has attracted much attention as a star unit and is under great pressure.

Especially a few months ago, after eating in the cafeteria, people who traveled across the country had to turn their heads and spit before going out, expressing their disgust for the monotonous dishes.

Discussing how unpalatable the canteen food is has become as social etiquette as British gentlemen discussing the weather.

Shuang Xiaojiang, a girl as a logistics supervisor, is naturally full of grievances. She often hides in bed at night and wipes her tears secretly. Why did she take the initiative to go to the hot box lunch to send it to the venue when she first crossed over.

I thought about resigning a few times, but Shuang Xiaojiang was persuaded by the captain of the ship, Cord, to come back. In the beginning, the conditions were difficult, but everyone can understand, but complaining is always inevitable. Don’t take it to heart .

Especially after Shuang Xiaojiang's incident was exposed by Chigua Quanzhong, many people felt wronged and took the initiative to apologize to Shuang Xiaojiang and the people in the logistics department, and the matter was over.

After the establishment of the office with RIM Billiton, the food in the public has finally improved.First, they went to Rim Billiton to purchase ingredients in small batches, then increased their efforts, and finally drove the base walker to purchase ingredients, which once caused a sensation outside the city of Rim Billiton.

Not only is the style of the base walker attractive, but also the style of throwing money through the crowd is also jaw-dropping.

Buy food and vegetables from hydroponic farms.Fresh meat, buy.Home-raised chickens laid new eggs?Buy it, buy it with the hen!Ursus imported caviar, buy!Yan country specialties, buy!

The mass purchases of the cross-country set off a bloodbath in the agricultural product market outside the city, and the price fluctuations were outrageous-the market for the slums was quite limited in terms of commodity types and quantities.

The crossing people came from the great food empire, which is extremely rich in materials, especially food. The demand for various non-staple foods is not as low as that of the Terra people. In addition, the purchasing power of Longmen coins in their hands is very reliable. How come there are so many tricks.

After the positions in the cafeteria were opened to the locals in Taila, almost all the chefs in charge of the kitchen were recruited from somewhere or dug out of the wall, and almost all of them had some housekeeping skills. It is also a linear increase.

No matter in terms of variety or taste, the canteen, which could only be regarded as a heating center for instant food rations before, has become a gourmet city.Even the taste of the dishes in the staff canteen open to local employees other than the Kapisi has also followed the chickens and dogs.

In the end, Chuanzhong simply signed a long-term contract with a large food company that can provide stable supply directly, and agreed to deliver the goods to the location designated by Karak Heavy Industry in the middle of each month.

It’s just that I don’t know when it started. Farmers and small vendors gradually came to sell their products spontaneously near the warehouse area. The cross-travelers also never refused to come. There were some fresh vegetables that sold well, so they bought them on the spot.

Later, more and more people came to ask questions.How to sell or exchange excess goods has always been a big problem for villages and towns that are not on the mobile city's circuit route.

Go to Ram Billiton, it's too far away, and there are taxes.Selling to small merchants, the price is too low. I heard that there is a place nearby where you can buy and sell things, and the buyers seem to be very generous, so naturally they flock to it.

Afterwards, the farmers and small businessmen who rushed over to sell their surplus items found that there were quite a few people who had the same idea as themselves, and they even started trading spontaneously before the cross-travelers entered the market.

So much so that in the middle of the month, the largest market within a radius of more than 50 kilometers is spontaneously formed—often, men, women and children from the whole village come to the market.

In the face of the surge of people, the cross-travelers can't rush, and it's not a bad thing for everyone to have a market selling all kinds of goods near the base, at least they can have a place to go after get off work.

Of course, the order still needs to be rectified. There is no extra manpower to maintain order in the crossing, so we had to place the market not far from the checkpoint for easy supervision. Grandpa and aunt with red armbands.

No matter which world you are in, there are many old men and women who like to continue to shine in the glowing age of the sunset—even if the time traveler does not pay wages, they just give out some souvenirs to volunteers who come to maintain order every time.

For example, pretty little badges, teacups, toothbrushes, bread baked in the cafeteria and other small items. These elderly volunteers are also happy to do it. Every time they go to the market, they will come early and wear red sleeves to spontaneously maintain order.

In addition, whether it is through the public or the Vaifan fighters of the Marine Corps, they are all deeply influenced. Naturally, they will not look at people with their nostrils like the nobles of Terra when they treat the masses. The old lady smiled and was full of energy.

Needless to say, the physical fitness of the people of Terra is of course, even though the average age of these red cuffs is almost 120 years old, catching the little hooligans who committed crimes is like a fast walker, and even has a good Originium skill.

The people who came to buy vegetables were stunned by the flying fireballs and unknown spells.After all, to be able to live to such a great age in the wasteland of Terra, he would definitely not be an ordinary person, and he was also a highly respected type in the local area.

Gradually, all the people who came to the market came to a consensus that those volunteers with red armbands were the most difficult people to mess with, and after forming an organization, they often acted in groups, and ordinary people were powerless to parry.

Chapter 99 Chapter 43 There is no man who does not like to shoot

After passing through the checkpoint, Haizi took the convoy directly to the Red Coast base in the center of the basin according to the planned itinerary, and the five support sand patrol ships belonging to the production department also parked into the anchorage in the base.

Of course, it may be more appropriate to call these sand cruisers that have been converted into mobile production lines industrial ships.

Since the Red Shore base is called a base, it is naturally impossible to just use it as an open space for land ships.Although taking into account the factors of natural disasters, the transfer of bases may be abandoned at any time, but the traversing people still used precious manpower to build a large amount of infrastructure.

The building complex on the north side is a number of wharves that are convenient for replenishing supplies and personnel exchange to land ships. The straight elevated trestle bridge extends out from the building complex, and industrial ships are moored on both sides, waiting for the visit of Mannanim and his party. .

Originally, they wanted to build a dock capable of maintaining and repairing land-ships, but considering the amount of work and the resources needed to invest, the traversing crowd finally chose to give up, and it was convenient to leave maintenance and other work to the maintenance beam.

The middle part of the base is a small commercial area. There is a commercial complex similar to Mouda Plaza, but the scale is relatively small, and there are not a few stores in total. They are all opened by Transit, but it does solve the entertainment and leisure problems of employees.

There are several restaurants operated by the logistics department, a medium-sized supermarket, a movie theater, and an Internet cafe.

As soon as the internet cafe opened, it attracted a lot of idle people, not only the local employees of Terra came to experience the machine for a few hours out of curiosity.Many time travelers who haven't touched a computer for nearly half a year are even more green-eyed. As soon as they open the door, they call their friends and friends to kill them, trying to get rid of their Internet addiction.

The shipboard database of the Kapisi includes a full set of technical information on electronic technology. In theory, the traversal people can quickly produce CPUs that punch Intel and kick AMD by relying on these tutorials that teach you how to rub chips. .

But this is only in theory. Checking information and doing it yourself are completely different things. Not to mention that military-grade shipboard computer arrays cannot be produced by themselves. .

In order to solve this problem, the Kapisi specially dismantled the temporary production line built by the previous light weapons research team, and made room for a new 3D printing production line to experiment and produce its own precision electronic equipment.

The machines in this Internet cafe are the product of experimentation.Instead of directly aiming at top-level chips and electronic components, Transcendants first tried to produce Bluestar home computers with a level of precision two orders of magnitude lower than that of Karak according to Bluestar's experience.

Amidst the cries of FSO, the Supreme Committee, which is seldom convened, passed the dismantling and scanning with one vote against and 95 votes in favor. FSO's self-proclaimed wife, that is, the baby top-end computer he brought over when he traveled, of course The data inside is backed up.

As a result, FSO heard the news that the hard drive had been turned upside down by the scientific research department. His wife was dismembered, and it was even more painful. He drew a gun on the spot and tried to kill himself. Later, he thought that he would be resurrected after death, so he didn't dare to pull the trigger.

Karak, whose scientific research relies on grave-digging, has a complete set of reliable processes to deal with unknown technological products. Naturally, Blue Star's home console is no problem. small-scale trial production.

As for the operating system and application software, the programmers on the Kapisi are still learning Karak's programming language by themselves, but the progress is impressive.The computers in Internet cafes all display a small semi-transparent pop-up window in the lower right corner of the monitor-activate Windows.

In fact, using the Windows system directly will expose very big problems in many details, but considering that it is only for internal use, the spread may not be particularly large, and it is still put on the Internet cafe after some modifications.

As for the application software inside, it is even more poor. Whether it is games, movies or novels, all of them belong to the top-secret restricted information that is strictly prohibited from leaking. After layers of screening and discussion, only two games that are barely playable have been modified. Then it was transplanted into the machine of the Internet cafe.

One is CS1.6, the other is Red Alert, and the other games are only small puzzle games such as Lianliankan, Solitaire, and Minesweeper.

Although it can be wasteful to play these real attributes with 2080ti, some games are better than nothing.The local employees of Terra who lacked entertainment, especially those born in the Sargon desert, had never seen the power of electronic heroin.

Under the leadership of individual time travelers who are not too big a deal, he quickly learned how to operate the computer and play these two games.

Whether it's CS's exciting gun battle or the red police's slamming Fang Qiu, the graphics and expressiveness may be slightly inferior to Terra's local console games, but these Vaifans have never been exposed to video games.

Especially in CS, many employees have worked on the light weapons production line. Although they know that the weapons produced are weapons, they are still a little confused about how to use them.

It is attractive enough to be able to play the weapons produced by oneself in the game, not to mention that you can also fight online in the local area network of the Internet cafe.

In addition, many cross-travelers also excitedly ran to abuse the food, and the Internet cafes were overcrowded for a while, quite like the popularity of Internet cafes when they just emerged in the motherland. Hour team, just to play a few rounds of CS.

The Marine Corps is not interested in CS, because they have a more advanced virtual scenario training ground, and Red Alert is unexpectedly more popular.

In order to cope with the upcoming expansion, Jidan, Jelivor, Eggyolk and SG in charge of the Marine Corps began to worry. Without qualified junior officers and non-commissioned officers, the expansion is empty talk. Now they are frantically feeding the team members squad tactics and team command Lessons, unfortunately, are of limited effect.

Instead, the marines found a place to use in Internet cafes, but games like Red Police are more about operations and economy.

I don't know when the team members who are yelling and trying to play tactical tricks and shouting to help their brothers will learn the truth that the outcome of a war is often determined outside the battlefield.

The southernmost part of the Red Coast base is the administrative area, where all the departments of the cross-travelers have offices. Did anyone say otherwise, the location must be reserved.

It is said that it is a government area, but in fact there is only a three-story low building. The first floor is the office hall, which handles various applications and affairs of employees. The second floor is a relatively large auditorium and two conference rooms. The top floor is usually nothing. People's Department Office.

As the facade of the Red Coast Base, the people who traveled through the building paid great attention to the government affairs building. Not only did the entrance be decorated with greenery and sculptures, but the internal facilities were also made as perfect as possible under the existing conditions.

This meeting with Mannanim was arranged here.

Chapter 100 Chapter 44 Industrial Land Cruiser

"It's a great honor for General Mannanim to come to our company to discuss cooperation matters in person. I'm Cord, the executive director of Karak Heavy Industries." The captain of the ship, Cord, greeted him personally at the gate of the government building. After seeing Mannanim get off the car , took a few steps forward, and stretched out his arms to shake hands.

The aircraft carrier Kapisi is still kept secret at present. Naturally, under the leadership of the captain Tassel, it sailed into the depths of the basin, and the reception work was handed over to the captain of the ship, Cord.

After Haizi took the motorcade to the parking lot on the side of the government affairs building, he got out of the car and changed to Mannanim's car to guide the vehicle to the government affairs building. The rest of the entourage would naturally be arranged by others.

After traveling for half a month, Mannanim, who detoured to Victoria and then returned to Rim Billiton, had an unconcealable exhaustion on his face, but the general's behavior, words and deeds were still competent.

Mananim first gave a Sami military salute to Cord, then stretched out his hand to hold the palm that Cord handed over, and said: "Hello, Mr. Cord, I don't have much time, it's best to negotiate today, cooperation joy."

"A pleasant cooperation. Are the generals satisfied with the terms of cooperation we handed over before? Do you think there are any terms that need to be revised?"

"Yes, or a little bit beyond expectations. I came here in person mainly to confirm your company's ability to fulfill the contract. In other words, I want to know when my people can get the equipment." Mannanim took off his hand before shaking hands. He handed over his gloves to the secretary, habitually putting his hands behind his back.

"The detailed delivery schedule will be handed over to the general when the agreement is officially signed, but we can guarantee that the first batch of equipment will be sent to Sami within a month. It's getting late, why don't the general follow me to the banquet hall , we have prepared light meals, and we have also made proper arrangements for your guards and soldiers."

"Don't bother, I will eat with my subordinates, let's chat while eating."

"No problem, the general will follow me." Cord made a gesture of invitation.

The people who traveled through specially set up a table for Mannanim, intending to show their friendship as a landlord, but unexpectedly he proposed to have lunch with his subordinates.

Well, you can eat whatever you like, you can spend your money on it.

In fact, the time-traversing crowd wrongly blamed Mannanim. In the impression of this veteran Sami, the banquet refers to the unnutritious thing that the western nobles often open. It is smelly and long, so naturally they don't want to waste time.

If you have the time, you might as well go to sleep, but for Mannanim who has been away from Sami for half a month, a good sleep is also an extremely luxurious thing.

Naturally, it is impossible to prepare lunch for the Sami soldiers brought by Mananim, because the itinerary of Mananim has not been confirmed, so these Sami people have not been arranged to stay in the guest house arranged in the base, just according to the general employee The standard provides working meals, and packed lunches are delivered to the parking lot.

Travelers are very particular about meals. Even for work meals, they are quite rich. Generally, there are four different sets of ABCD for employees to choose from. The variety is complete, and the taste and ingredients are considered to be the best in Terra.

Of course, the cafeteria also provides other high-quality dishes and snacks, but if you want to eat, you have to swipe your card or pay for it yourself. Even if the employees open their mouths to eat, even the time-travelers can’t afford it.

"Your food is good." Mannanim also lined up to get the boxed lunch. He chose the D set meal, which is Sargon style. He picked it up and ate it while walking around.

Cord also took the meal and stayed by his side.

"Go directly to the production line to have a look?" Mannanim couldn't hold back, now that the winter in Ursus is not far away.

Once in October, large swaths of mud in Ursas will be frozen and become hard frozen soil, Ursas' army will be able to assemble and mobilize on a large scale without any worries, and Sami will be able to count the remaining troops on his fingers. day is over.

Therefore, Mannanim is really not sure whether Karak Heavy Industries can deliver in a short time, and it is meaningless to just deliver on time. After the army is reequipped, it will take time to form combat effectiveness.

This is also the reason why Mannanim later let go of the technical equipment and instead asked to send people to Sami through the crowd.

"I'm sorry, General, the production line is in the clean room, so we can't bring you in until we've finished eating." Cord declined Mannanim's request, and re-said, "Why don't we eat while walking?"

"Okay, lead the way."

With the consent of the big customer, the group got on several four-wheeled electric vehicles commuting in the base, and began to drive to the north of the base and the anchorage of the industrial ship.

Mannanim ate very quickly, Cord hadn't eaten half of it, and the general had already finished the lunch box in his hand, and handed over the lunch box and garbage to the staff of Vaifan on the side.

When the convoy bypassed the commercial area, five industrial ships lined up in the anchorage appeared in front of everyone, and one of them was docked next to the trestle, waiting for the visit of Mananim and Cord.

These five industrial ships transformed from support sand cruisers really shocked Mananim. With heavy armor, solid tracks, and no redundant parts on the huge ship, Karak's excellent industrial design capabilities made these land giants Beast is more like an industrial artwork.

Mannanim is not a bumpkin who has never seen the world. Indeed, Sami is very poor and has almost zero heavy industry, but as a country, there are still mobile cities of its own. The size of the wheel is only a sand cruiser-level industry. Ships are still not comparable.

But mobile cities and land-ships are two completely different concepts. The volume and size of mobile cities determine that the tonnage redundancy far exceeds that of land-ships. I want to build a land-ship and build a mobile city. Not a concept at all.

Not to mention these stunning looking industrial land cruisers, even if they are just parked quietly at the anchorage, Mannanim can imagine the scene of these land cruisers galloping on the ground.

From the appearance of these land-ships, one can guess that they must have good defense and maneuverability. Even the Victorian Royal Fleet, which is famous for its land-based warships, does not have a land-based ship that can match it in appearance. Compare.

"Please." Cord, who was walking in front, signaled Mannanim to enter the interior of the industrial ship through the personnel boarding port, and the crew members who had been waiting for a long time also stood at the entrance to issue hard hats to the boarding personnel.

Clean, bright and spacious.

Mannanim was also slightly surprised by the internal facilities of the land cruiser, which was different from all the land cruisers or mobile platforms he had boarded.

This place is obviously not a luxury passenger land cruiser specially designed for noble travel with luxurious decoration. The neatly arranged pipes and lines make it appear that this place is just an ordinary corridor and cabin in the ship.

Ursas or most of the industrial mobile platforms or land ships in Tailai, the cabins and passages are extremely narrow and dim.

It is difficult to guarantee such ample space for the land-based platform while fortifying enough equipment and ensuring that the power and precious tonnage of the Origin Stone Furnace are not wasted.

The interior of Karak Heavy Industries' land cruiser can be so spacious and bright, it can only show that Karak Heavy Industries' land cruiser construction technology, especially the technical level of power and control systems, has far exceeded Mannanim's cognition.
