It was night.
To the west of the Second Ring Road, artillery fire and gunfire are constantly being fired, and the mercenaries are fighting with the swarming alien species under the cover of air raids and artillery fire.
On the contrary, the north, which was riotted all night yesterday, was quiet tonight.
With a straight-line distance of more than ten kilometers, steel forests are everywhere, and gunfire is definitely inaudible, but the explosion can always be heard a little.
However, Zhao Yongxu didn't find it strange at all.
It would be strange if a group of country bumpkins fighting with fire sticks.
I guess the battle last night had exhausted all their strength. Even if they were not submerged in the surging wave, they probably ran away with their tails.
Looking at the quiet night sky to the north, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes.
These idiots.
If you don’t have the ability, you don’t know how to stay away. Isn’t this asking for trouble?
As we all know, the wave will move towards a densely populated and small number of slime-type xenogranules. Whether it is population growth or large-scale removal of slime-type xenogranules, it will accumulate hatred value.
Of course, it is normal for those country bumpkins to not know about it.
Their heads can be filled with half of the "Voice of the Rock City" "The Sutra of Getting Rich" and they may not even know a few words, so how many things can they know?
In his opinion, there is no essential difference between those people and beggars who beg for food at the gate of Jushi City, and they can even be said to be the same type of goods.
He withdrew his gaze from the north and Zhao Yongxu, who was standing by the window of the building, continued to look to the east.
As an officer of the militia regiment, the front-line commander appointed by the city lord himself, beautifully solving the wave of threatening the prosperity and stability of the Rock City is what he should really care about now.
Not far away.
Two arcs of light passed through the night sky.
As four black dots fell one after another, the scorching flames engulfed the entire street and dried every grain of soil on the ground.
A vacuum was cleared near the entrance of the underground complex, and the mercenaries began to advance.
From the West Third Ring Road to the West Second Ring Road, two new mother nests on the surface had been destroyed by air strikes a few days ago, but there were still three mother nests hidden in the underground commercial complex.
Mutations in the incubation room are random and cannot be predicted at all. Even after a carpet-style search, there will inevitably be fish that miss the net.
Especially when mutations occur underground.
The underground space connected under the towering building is intertwined with the rail transit, densely packed like a spider web or a ball of yarn wrapped in balls.
It is said that in the distant prosperity era, only quantum computers can help people find the fastest way home.
Unfortunately, Giant Rock City does not have a quantum computer that can ask for directions, nor does it have a strategic weapon that can reach underground dozens of meters or even hundreds of meters deep.
But it doesn't matter if it doesn't.
They have sufficient amount of cannon fodder and sufficient logistics.
With the support of indirect and direct firepower, even two powerful evolutions occasionally cannot be their opponents.
If you are optimistic, you can get rid of a mother nest hidden underground tonight.
If you are not optimistic, you will only wait for two more days at most.
Zhao Yongxu quietly waited for good news to come from the front line, and at this time, the voice of the pilot came from the communication channel.
The air strike was completed and the target was cleared... It was returning.
Good job, go back and rest, there is no more work for you tonight.
As soon as he said this, Zhao Yongxu suddenly moved his heart, and then added another sentence later.
By the way, when you come back, you will take a walk north.
I want to know the situation in the North Fourth Ring Road.
He doesn't need to worry about what the northern suburbs will become.
The reason for saying this is purely to satisfy his personal curiosity.
The pilots on the mission didn't care so much, and replied concisely.
receive.
Two arcs drew an arc in the air and took a long way to the north.
Zhao Yongxu waited for a moment.
Not long after, a report came from the communication channel.
He has arrived over the North Fourth Ring Road and no abnormalities have been found.
What about the fire exchange.
I didn't see it...it's pitch black here.
It seems that not only the artillery fire has stopped, but the gunfire has stopped completely.
Zhao Yongxu chuckled in his heart, sure enough, but at this moment, the pause sound rang again.
Not only the North Fourth Ring Road, the Changling Elevated Road is very quiet, and no open fire is found... However, when you go north to the Fifth Ring Road, you can see sporadic lights.
Zhao Yongxu was stunned.
Scattered lights?
The survivors there didn't leave?
Have they solved the wave...but how is this possible!
His face was full of weirdness, and Zhao Yongxu immediately continued to ask.
Where is the bell tower on No. 65 Street?How is the situation there?
There was a silence in the communication channel for a while.
A sure voice came soon.
We are now on the sky above 65th Street, and a large amount of plaque was found on the wall of the bell tower, which was confirmed to be the wreckage of the mother nest...
There should have been a battle here before. The battle situation was quite tragic, and there were corpses everywhere on the ground... but they won.
The entire cigarette stuck to the fingers fell to the ground.
Zhao Yongxu's eyes widened, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The remains of the mother nest?Are you sure you read it right?!
The pilot answered in a yes tone.
...I can be sure!
The cruise mission ended and the plane began to return.
Looking blankly at the sky north outside the window, Zhao Yongxu was silent for a long time without saying a word.
He couldn't figure it out.
Without air firepower support, how did those people kill the alien species that flowed like a tide with just earth shells and iron pipe rifles?
After a long silence, he squeezed out half of a murmur from his lips.
...How is this possible!
……
Damn, the explosion last night was like thunder…Who do you know what was going on there?
You mean the south?I heard it too!
It’s the wave, those blue jackets have been dealing with that thing in the past two weeks. I heard that the front line is very lively.
wave?I have been to Qingquan City for so many times, and this is the first time I heard that the wave will go north.
Maybe this year is different from previous years?After all, this was not so lively last year.
It’s so strange. Can Inspur know where there are many people?
You didn't know it at first sight. My uncle, who was a soldier in the Militia Corps in the Giant Rock City, told me that every bite you killed outside will come back to you in the spring of the coming year as a wave.
Stop talking nonsense. It’s as mysterious as you said. The survivors of Qingquan City have long died!
On the North Gate Street of Changjiu Farm, the highway hotel next to the trading station, the first floor of the store was filled with noisy and noisy.
Whenever the sky darkens, it becomes a tavern for mercenaries, merchants and caravan guards.
Some people eat meat and drink, some play cards, and some people talk about their experiences or rumors on the road just to earn a glass of beer.
As we all know, there are stories where there are wine. Although many stories are made up now, occasionally one or two sentences of information that sounds a little valuable to the rumored rumors.
Therefore, no matter whether you live or not, mercenaries and merchants like to come here to sit and spend time.
My people and I need to stay for another night.
Sun Shiqi, who walked to the bar, woke up the old Hook who was dozing off in the back.
It's really a shame that he can sleep in such a noisy place.
Opening his cloudy eyes, Old Hook raised his eyelids and looked at the young man standing in front of the bar, yawned.
No problem... Why do you suddenly plan to stay for one more day?I remember you were in a hurry to go back and make a fortune?
The order was postponed, it was really unlucky... Sun Shiqi muttered, sat in front of the bar, and gave me a glass of beer, or the one that could be mixed with water.
Not only was his orders stopped, but all arms orders for export from the entire Changjiu Farm were postponed for one day, saying that the inventory in the industrial zone was sent to the front line.
The little girl named Shuanghe came to the hotel in person to express her apology to herself, and said that the trading station was willing to compensate him for the accommodation fee of 10 silver coins.
Although Sun Shiqi wanted to complain that the cost of staying here for an extra day was more than 10 silver coins, and he paid for the mercenary's salary and food and accommodation expenses by himself, because the little girl's apology was quite sincere, he did not make things difficult for her.
Besides, even if you are embarrassed, it is useless. This is nothing to do.
The front line is fighting, and the bullets sent to the ammunition depot cannot be dragged back.
When encountering unreasonable survivors' settlement, it is not impossible to leave the goods directly until next year, and it is not too much to postpone it for one or two days.
It is impossible to do business on wasteland without taking some risks.
We are not a giant stone city, and we don’t sell fakes that are redeemable.
When selling things, he didn't forget to label the neighbor. Old Hook walked tremblingly to the wooden barrel, unscrewed the silver faucet, picked up a cup with a wooden cup as thick as his thigh, and returned to the bar and placed it on the table.
5 silver coins.
Keep it in my account.
After taking the wine glass made of wood, Sun Shiqi took a look inside.
Good guy, he didn't know whether the beer was mixed with water, but the foam alone had already piled up half a cup.
He has now discovered that what the hotel earns is not the room fee, but the customers' consumption in the store.
According to this method of selling, a barrel of beer may be exchanged for a cow.
It's so dark!
What is the situation of the front line on the Northern Ring Road?
Old Hook replied casually.
It's over.
it's over?Sun Shiqi showed a surprised expression on his face, and he suspected that his ears had heard it wrong. Are you talking about Inspur?
Old Hook: Otherwise, what else can it be?
Swallowed the surprised expression on his face, Sun Shiqi said with a embarrassed smile.
I just didn't expect it to be so soon.
The usual waves have to wait until late March.
And this hasn't even arrived at the end of February.
Without further inquiring about the tide, Sun Shiqi habitually approached the wine glass and sniffed, smelling the fragrance of small wheat stools.
Did you make it yourself?
Old Hook replied casually.
The malt and hops of Brown Farm, coupled with the special fermentation process of Shelter 404, I promise, this is a great wine you will definitely not drink in the tavern of Boulder City.
This line is too proficient.
So much so that Sun Shiqi always felt like this guy had memorized it.
However, this is not the focus of his concern.
Sun Shiqi pointed to the wine barrel behind him and asked curiously.
How much does this barrel of beer cost?
Old Hook's eyes lit up, and a happy smile appeared on his wrinkled face.
Are you interested?500 silver coins are sold to you.
500？！
This wooden barrel is only 50 liters at most, but maybe it is only about 40 liters. Whether it can fill a hundred wine glasses will have to be questioned.
Just a fool buy it!
Sun Shiqi rolled his eyes, took a sip of beer, but did not answer Old Hook's words.
He has made a small fortune recently.
But he is not stupid.
The smooth taste made him feel comfortable. Just as he was about to inquire about business information, the wooden door of the hotel suddenly opened and a dusty figure walked in.
Old Hook looked at the man and asked skillfully.
Eat or stay in a hotel?
None of them, I'm here to find someone...
I noticed Sun Shiqi standing by the bar. Zhou Nan's eyes lit up and he immediately walked towards him quickly, "Hey, friend, I'm looking for you!"
Sun Shiqi recognized him and remembered that he seemed to be staying in the hotel opposite.When he first came to Changjiu Farm, this man invited him to the Stone City.
Give him a glass of beer... and two more skewers of carbon grilled lizard meat, and I will remember it in my account.
OK.Hook turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Sitting on the bar stool next to Sun Shiqi, the businessman from the south said happily with a smile.
Thanks!
You're welcome, Sun Shiqi looked at him and asked, "Is there anything wrong with me?"
Of course I won't bother you if it's okay.With a smile on his face, Zhou Nan continued, "That's right, we plan to set off for the Rock City at noon tomorrow. How are you thinking about what I asked you yesterday?
Sun Shiqi made a helpless expression.
My order has been postponed and I don’t know if it will be delivered tomorrow.You guys go, I'm afraid I have to stay here for a day or two.
Zhou Nan said sadly: That's a shame.
Sun Shiqi looked at him and asked curiously: Have you got enough staff?
Zhou Nan smiled and said: No, but I heard that the battle near the North Fourth Ring Road has been completed. Those blue jackets have solved the mother nest. No matter the wave knot in other places has not ended, at least the wave in the northern suburbs has ended. Now is the best time to go to Giant Rock City!My friends and I carefully studied the map, walked west along the North Fifth Ring Road, and then headed north, and we could reach our destination safely
Sun Shiqi looked at him enviously and said.
...Would you like to ask what business you plan to do?
Most of the transactions that everyone can come into contact with are similar, but Zhou Nan did not deliberately hide them and said with a gaze.
Salt and sulfur are the best selling things there, especially during this period of the wave!Oh yes, there are gas masks and devil cloths coming in from the trading station.
Speaking of this, Zhou Nan couldn't help but sigh.
There are so many good things here, and they are good and cheap!Do you know how much the nutritional cream here costs?The wholesale price of one ton is only 299 silver coins!
299 silver coins...
Equivalent to 15 assault rifles?
The currencies on the wasteland are all kinds of strange. Even if the same currency is different in different regions, Sun Shiqi subconsciously converted it in his mind.
And when he realized what this price meant, he was shocked.
Are you sure?!Can two assault rifles exchange for one ton of nutritional cream?!
In Jushi City, the retail price of nutritional paste is 1 to 2 chips per kilogram, and the wholesale price is 300 to 400 chips per ton.
If it is a drone assault rifle, there are at least two!
And this is based on the fact that the latter is also not cheap.
Noticed the surprise on Sun Shiqi's face, Zhou Nan looked at him strangely, as if he was surprised that someone didn't know about this.
However, thinking that this gentleman had just arrived for less than two days, Zhou Nan felt relieved and continued with a smile.
Isn't it amazing?I was also shocked when I first found out!I suspect that the nutritional paste produced by Didiway Food Processing Factory costs less than 200 silver coins per ton!If I hadn't had money, I would have wanted to start a factory!
Banks in Changjiu Farm can borrow money, but not everyone can borrow money.
Unless both conditions are met.
Or have technology.
Or have equipment.
Or, it will make sufficient contribution to the local economy.
As a merchant from the south, he happened to have none of these three things.
However, this did not prevent him from transporting the nutritional paste to the south for food or livestock, and then transporting the livestock back for silver coins.
Zhou Nan studied it all day yesterday and found that there was a strong demand for livestock here. A two-headed cow was sold to Changjiu Farm, and at least three or four thousand silver coins could be exchanged for at least three or four thousand silver coins!
Take two or three tons of nutritional paste to the south, and use the local currency you exchanged, you can easily buy one or two double cows from the farmers and ranchers there.
Seeing that this friend was filled with hearts, Zhou Nan asked with a chuckle.
Brother, do you want to join forces?We can start a factory by collecting some money. I have studied it. As long as we come back from Jushicheng to buy some second-hand equipment, we can get the factory done with 200,000 chips.
Sun Shiqi admitted that he was indeed moved.
But after hesitating for a long time, he finally shook his head.
...I admit that this proposal is very attractive, but it is too far to go to Jinchuan Province, and it may take half a month to go back and forth.
The northern suburbs have the most scarce weapons and food in Honghe Town, while the latter has the mines and people needed by the former.
Slaves and mines transported from Honghe Town to sell them here, replaced with rifles and grain and then refuted them back, and you can still make a lot of money.
There are many ways to make a fortune, and it is impossible for him to eat all of them alone. The best way to manage the trade route in his hand is to do it!
Sun Shiqi has already thought about it.
He planned to save some money to buy a few trucks, form a fleet, and buy the copper mine business from here to Honghe Town.
The demand for copper mines here is the strongest, and they are used to lay wires and build bullets. The price is always so stable, and the cost-effectiveness of transportation is much higher than that of steel.
After earning hundreds of thousands of silver coins, he planned to buy a piece of land on North Street, first build a warehouse, and then build a mill.
If you are lucky enough to catch up with the autumn harvest, you can make a lot of money by grinding the harvested corn and wheat into flour, whether you sell it to Honghe Town, Jushi City or Garbage City.
The unit price of grain is not high, but the gross profit has never been low. Not everyone wears shoes, but everyone has to eat.
Last year was cold winter.
This year should be a fat year, and the food price will probably be very cheap.
Sun Shiqi was imagining the future in his heart. Zhou Nan, who was sitting next to him, felt a little regretful, but he didn't say much and raised his glass.
It’s a pity that if we join forces, we will definitely have the hope of becoming the largest grain merchant in Qingquan City.
There is no regret, there are many opportunities to get rich. Sun Shiqi cried out with him and said with a smile, I wish Boss Zhou a bigger deal!
Haha, it’s auspicious words for brothers!I'll give you a cup!
I respect you!
The two of them drank red, drinking one cup after another, talking happily.
Old Hook, sitting behind the bar, listened to the two bragging, his wrinkled faces were filled with smiles, and he would often say a few words.
No matter how much they make a fortune, the money they drink is indispensable.
Of course he was glad they drank more.
In the end, Zhou Nan went out with the wall, while Sun Shiqi himself lay on the bar for half a night, and was carried back to the room by the hotel waiter in the middle of the night.
When he woke up the next morning, he saw the bill on the bedside table. Sun Shiqi's originally groggy head instantly woke up, and his face turned green.
220 silver coins?!
What did he drink last night?!
……
Official website forum.
In the past, this point should have been the peak period for players to go online, and there were no people on the official website, but today this point is very lively.
Quit smoking: I can't get online anymore!
I'm the darkest: so do I!Strange.
Similar posts emerged one by one, and many LV9 players were surprised to find that they had broken through the bottleneck as soon as they put on their helmets!
Especially the most surprising thing is undoubtedly the Trash.
He has been stuck in the LV9 hurdle for almost a month!
This time I finally made a breakthrough!
Picking up garbage level 99: Hahahaha, awakening!I finally woke up!
Looking at the prompt in the upper right corner of the official website, the trash man burst into tears with excitement.
How long has it been since the account was established?
As the first few Europeans to enter the game, and also have an account exclusively belonging to the European Emperor, it should have been an exciting thing, but by chance, I caught up with the once-in-a-N year cold winter.
In addition to the debuff that is more difficult to obtain, the A-round test was almost over and he successfully advanced to LV10.
Seeing the younger generations awaken successfully one by one, he probably knew the sadness he felt.
It's really not easy!
Ye Shi: Damn, the trash guy is awakened?!
The Mole in the Canyon: Shocked!Will it become a dead claw?!
Picking up garbage level 99: How is that possible, but the intensity is really unspeakable. I feel like I can fight with the dead claws at the west gate!(Growned teeth)
Fang Chang: Good brother, let’s show you the attribute panel Ah!
Tail: Get it fast!Let me be healthy!(' ° °')
Under the instigation of everyone, Trash Jun finally couldn't resist the urge to show off and posted his attribute panel in the post.
ID: Grade 99
Gene sequence: xenogenesis lizard man
Level: LV9→LV10
Basic properties
Strength: 17→27 (+10)
Agility: 9→14 (+5)
Physical constitution: 9→14 (+5)
Perception: 9→11 (+2)
Intelligence: 2→3
talent:
Cold-blooded (more concealment, slow movement in low temperature environment)
Pairing foot (stronger endurance, difficult to operate complex machinery)
Physical regeneration (more recovery and difficulty in improving gene sequence level)
Boiling Blood (removing the debuff brought by the Cold Blood talent within a certain period of time and obtaining 10% to 20% of the strength and physique attribute bonus.)
The moment the attribute panel was posted, the comment section below the post was instantly boiling!
Tail: ?
Quit smoking: ???
Ye Shi: Damn?!
Commander Quanshui: Are you cheating?!
Flanking on the edge: Mom... This attribute is too outrageous!
Lao Bai: Are the power attributes serious?!
The boy and brick at the construction site: Please plan and cut it quickly!
In just a few minutes, what balance has collapsed, and its combat power has collapsed, and it has emerged all over.
These people have used any means to achieve their goals, as if they could not continue to operate the test server the next day without slashing it.
Of course, some people are joking.
But for level 99 picking up garbage, this joke is not too funny.
Seeing that everyone was planning, Trash Jun suddenly panicked and quickly said.
Damn it!I'm a bigger size than you at least. Is the higher attribute too much?
Stop talking: Too much!Forget it if you have high attributes, you still have to show off your appearance!(Crazy)
Makabazi: That’s it!Is this what people do?(Crazy)
Picking up garbage level 99: ???Isn't it that you want me to post?!
This is too terrible!
Just as the Garbage Jun was fighting against the scholars, an announcement suddenly popped up on the official website could be regarded as a way to relieve him of the siege.
Because of this sudden update announcement, both players and cloud players were attracted to it.
The closed beta server of "Wasteland OL" will start the B round of testing in 6 days. At that time, the new version will meet with friends, so stay tuned!
To the west of the Second Ring Road, artillery fire and gunfire are constantly being fired, and the mercenaries are fighting with the swarming alien species under the cover of air raids and artillery fire.

After taking the wine glass made of wood, Sun Shiqi took a look inside.
Good guy, he didn't know whether the beer was mixed with water, but the foam alone had already piled up half a cup.
He has now discovered that what the hotel earns is not the room fee, but the customers' consumption in the store.
According to this method of selling, a barrel of beer may be exchanged for a cow.
It's so dark!
What is the situation of the front line on the Northern Ring Road?
Old Hook replied casually.
It's over.
it's over?Sun Shiqi showed a surprised expression on his face, and he suspected that his ears had heard it wrong. Are you talking about Inspur?
Old Hook: Otherwise, what else can it be?
Swallowed the surprised expression on his face, Sun Shiqi said with a embarrassed smile.
I just didn't expect it to be so soon.
The usual waves have to wait until late March.
And this hasn't even arrived at the end of February.
Without further inquiring about the tide, Sun Shiqi habitually approached the wine glass and sniffed, smelling the fragrance of small wheat stools.
Did you make it yourself?
Old Hook replied casually.
The malt and hops of Brown Farm, coupled with the special fermentation process of Shelter 404, I promise, this is a great wine you will definitely not drink in the tavern of Boulder City.
This line is too proficient.
So much so that Sun Shiqi always felt like this guy had memorized it.
However, this is not the focus of his concern.
Sun Shiqi pointed to the wine barrel behind him and asked curiously.
How much does this barrel of beer cost?
Old Hook's eyes lit up, and a happy smile appeared on his wrinkled face.
Are you interested?500 silver coins are sold to you.
500？！
This wooden barrel is only 50 liters at most, but maybe it is only about 40 liters. Whether it can fill a hundred wine glasses will have to be questioned.
Just a fool buy it!
Sun Shiqi rolled his eyes, took a sip of beer, but did not answer Old Hook's words.
He has made a small fortune recently.
But he is not stupid.
The smooth taste made him feel comfortable. Just as he was about to inquire about business information, the wooden door of the hotel suddenly opened and a dusty figure walked in.
Old Hook looked at the man and asked skillfully.
Eat or stay in a hotel?
None of them, I'm here to find someone...
I noticed Sun Shiqi standing by the bar. Zhou Nan's eyes lit up and he immediately walked towards him quickly, "Hey, friend, I'm looking for you!"
Sun Shiqi recognized him and remembered that he seemed to be staying in the hotel opposite.When he first came to Changjiu Farm, this man invited him to the Stone City.
Give him a glass of beer... and two more skewers of carbon grilled lizard meat, and I will remember it in my account.
OK.Hook turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Sitting on the bar stool next to Sun Shiqi, the businessman from the south said happily with a smile.
Thanks!
You're welcome, Sun Shiqi looked at him and asked, "Is there anything wrong with me?"
Of course I won't bother you if it's okay.With a smile on his face, Zhou Nan continued, "That's right, we plan to set off for the Rock City at noon tomorrow. How are you thinking about what I asked you yesterday?
Sun Shiqi made a helpless expression.
My order has been postponed and I don’t know if it will be delivered tomorrow.You guys go, I'm afraid I have to stay here for a day or two.
Zhou Nan said sadly: That's a shame.
Sun Shiqi looked at him and asked curiously: Have you got enough staff?
Zhou Nan smiled and said: No, but I heard that the battle near the North Fourth Ring Road has been completed. Those blue jackets have solved the mother nest. No matter the wave knot in other places has not ended, at least the wave in the northern suburbs has ended. Now is the best time to go to Giant Rock City!My friends and I carefully studied the map, walked west along the North Fifth Ring Road, and then headed north, and we could reach our destination safely
Sun Shiqi looked at him enviously and said.
...Would you like to ask what business you plan to do?
Most of the transactions that everyone can come into contact with are similar, but Zhou Nan did not deliberately hide them and said with a gaze.
Salt and sulfur are the best selling things there, especially during this period of the wave!Oh yes, there are gas masks and devil cloths coming in from the trading station.
Speaking of this, Zhou Nan couldn't help but sigh.
There are so many good things here, and they are good and cheap!Do you know how much the nutritional cream here costs?The wholesale price of one ton is only 299 silver coins!
299 silver coins...
Equivalent to 15 assault rifles?
The currencies on the wasteland are all kinds of strange. Even if the same currency is different in different regions, Sun Shiqi subconsciously converted it in his mind.
And when he realized what this price meant, he was shocked.
Are you sure?!Can two assault rifles exchange for one ton of nutritional cream?!
In Jushi City, the retail price of nutritional paste is 1 to 2 chips per kilogram, and the wholesale price is 300 to 400 chips per ton.
If it is a drone assault rifle, there are at least two!
And this is based on the fact that the latter is also not cheap.
Noticed the surprise on Sun Shiqi's face, Zhou Nan looked at him strangely, as if he was surprised that someone didn't know about this.
However, thinking that this gentleman had just arrived for less than two days, Zhou Nan felt relieved and continued with a smile.
Isn't it amazing?I was also shocked when I first found out!I suspect that the nutritional paste produced by Didiway Food Processing Factory costs less than 200 silver coins per ton!If I hadn't had money, I would have wanted to start a factory!
Banks in Changjiu Farm can borrow money, but not everyone can borrow money.
Unless both conditions are met.
Or have technology.
Or have equipment.
Or, it will make sufficient contribution to the local economy.
As a merchant from the south, he happened to have none of these three things.
However, this did not prevent him from transporting the nutritional paste to the south for food or livestock, and then transporting the livestock back for silver coins.
Zhou Nan studied it all day yesterday and found that there was a strong demand for livestock here. A two-headed cow was sold to Changjiu Farm, and at least three or four thousand silver coins could be exchanged for at least three or four thousand silver coins!
Take two or three tons of nutritional paste to the south, and use the local currency you exchanged, you can easily buy one or two double cows from the farmers and ranchers there.
Seeing that this friend was filled with hearts, Zhou Nan asked with a chuckle.
Brother, do you want to join forces?We can start a factory by collecting some money. I have studied it. As long as we come back from Jushicheng to buy some second-hand equipment, we can get the factory done with 200,000 chips.
Sun Shiqi admitted that he was indeed moved.
But after hesitating for a long time, he finally shook his head.
...I admit that this proposal is very attractive, but it is too far to go to Jinchuan Province, and it may take half a month to go back and forth.
The northern suburbs have the most scarce weapons and food in Honghe Town, while the latter has the mines and people needed by the former.
Slaves and mines transported from Honghe Town to sell them here, replaced with rifles and grain and then refuted them back, and you can still make a lot of money.
There are many ways to make a fortune, and it is impossible for him to eat all of them alone. The best way to manage the trade route in his hand is to do it!
Sun Shiqi has already thought about it.
He planned to save some money to buy a few trucks, form a fleet, and buy the copper mine business from here to Honghe Town.
The demand for copper mines here is the strongest, and they are used to lay wires and build bullets. The price is always so stable, and the cost-effectiveness of transportation is much higher than that of steel.
After earning hundreds of thousands of silver coins, he planned to buy a piece of land on North Street, first build a warehouse, and then build a mill.
If you are lucky enough to catch up with the autumn harvest, you can make a lot of money by grinding the harvested corn and wheat into flour, whether you sell it to Honghe Town, Jushi City or Garbage City.
The unit price of grain is not high, but the gross profit has never been low. Not everyone wears shoes, but everyone has to eat.
Last year was cold winter.
This year should be a fat year, and the food price will probably be very cheap.
Sun Shiqi was imagining the future in his heart. Zhou Nan, who was sitting next to him, felt a little regretful, but he didn't say much and raised his glass.
It’s a pity that if we join forces, we will definitely have the hope of becoming the largest grain merchant in Qingquan City.
There is no regret, there are many opportunities to get rich. Sun Shiqi cried out with him and said with a smile, I wish Boss Zhou a bigger deal!
Haha, it’s auspicious words for brothers!I'll give you a cup!
I respect you!
The two of them drank red, drinking one cup after another, talking happily.
Old Hook, sitting behind the bar, listened to the two bragging, his wrinkled faces were filled with smiles, and he would often say a few words.
No matter how much they make a fortune, the money they drink is indispensable.
Of course he was glad they drank more.
In the end, Zhou Nan went out with the wall, while Sun Shiqi himself lay on the bar for half a night, and was carried back to the room by the hotel waiter in the middle of the night.
When he woke up the next morning, he saw the bill on the bedside table. Sun Shiqi's originally groggy head instantly woke up, and his face turned green.
220 silver coins?!
What did he drink last night?!
……
Official website forum.
In the past, this point should have been the peak period for players to go online, and there were no people on the official website, but today this point is very lively.
Quit smoking: I can't get online anymore!
I'm the darkest: so do I!Strange.
Similar posts emerged one by one, and many LV9 players were surprised to find that they had broken through the bottleneck as soon as they put on their helmets!
Especially the most surprising thing is undoubtedly the Trash.
He has been stuck in the LV9 hurdle for almost a month!
This time I finally made a breakthrough!
Picking up garbage level 99: Hahahaha, awakening!I finally woke up!
Looking at the prompt in the upper right corner of the official website, the trash man burst into tears with excitement.
How long has it been since the account was established?
As the first few Europeans to enter the game, and also have an account exclusively belonging to the European Emperor, it should have been an exciting thing, but by chance, I caught up with the once-in-a-N year cold winter.
In addition to the debuff that is more difficult to obtain, the A-round test was almost over and he successfully advanced to LV10.
Seeing the younger generations awaken successfully one by one, he probably knew the sadness he felt.
It's really not easy!
Ye Shi: Damn, the trash guy is awakened?!
The Mole in the Canyon: Shocked!Will it become a dead claw?!
Picking up garbage level 99: How is that possible, but the intensity is really unspeakable. I feel like I can fight with the dead claws at the west gate!(Growned teeth)
Fang Chang: Good brother, let’s show you the attribute panel Ah!
Tail: Get it fast!Let me be healthy!(' ° °')
Under the instigation of everyone, Trash Jun finally couldn't resist the urge to show off and posted his attribute panel in the post.
ID: Grade 99
Gene sequence: xenogenesis lizard man
Level: LV9→LV10
Basic properties
Strength: 17→27 (+10)

Physical regeneration (more recovery and difficulty in improving gene sequence level)

The moment the attribute panel was posted, the comment section below the post was instantly boiling!
Tail: ?
Quit smoking: ???
Ye Shi: Damn?!
Commander Quanshui: Are you cheating?!
Flanking on the edge: Mom... This attribute is too outrageous!
Lao Bai: Are the power attributes serious?!
The boy and brick at the construction site: Please plan and cut it quickly!
In just a few minutes, what balance has collapsed, and its combat power has collapsed, and it has emerged all over.
These people have used any means to achieve their goals, as if they could not continue to operate the test server the next day without slashing it.
Of course, some people are joking.
But for level 99 picking up garbage, this joke is not too funny.
Seeing that everyone was planning, Trash Jun suddenly panicked and quickly said.
Damn it!I'm a bigger size than you at least. Is the higher attribute too much?
Stop talking: Too much!Forget it if you have high attributes, you still have to show off your appearance!(Crazy)
Makabazi: That’s it!Is this what people do?(Crazy)
Picking up garbage level 99: ???Isn't it that you want me to post?!
This is too terrible!
Just as the Garbage Jun was fighting against the scholars, an announcement suddenly popped up on the official website could be regarded as a way to relieve him of the siege.
Because of this sudden update announcement, both players and cloud players were attracted to it.
The closed beta server of "Wasteland OL" will start the B round of testing in 6 days. At that time, the new version will meet with friends, so stay tuned!
