The Rock City is very big.
Not only facilities, but also population.
If you want to conduct in-depth investigations into the customs and customs here, a week may not be enough.
What's more, the new map experience card is only valid for three days...
The next evening.
Sitting next to the window, Fangchang looked at the gradually bustling street outside the window, and put away the small notebook and pen in his hand.
Overall, the progress is still going smoothly.
Except for the inner city, the exploration level of the outer city has reached 60%, and the things that need to be understood have basically been investigated.
Especially those that go deep into the social level.
And this part was also what surprised him the most.
Unlike small survivor settlements such as Bate Street and Brown Farm, the Rock City is not only huge, but also different from the "feudal lord-style" rule in most small and medium-sized survivor settlements, but it is more like a complex collection of interests.
The city lord is the highest power here, with command of the militia regiment, but he does not participate in the specific things in the city, nor does he engage in any asset management. He is only responsible for dealing with the waves and other threats, and getting money from the vault of the city hall.
The residents living here have built a bureaucratic system that suits them, responsible for handling messy things and taxation.However, due to the inability to directly obtain the support of violent machines, their dominance over the region is very weak, and even when solving certain problems, they have to rely on the help of some "big people".
Interestingly, while communicating with NPC, I accidentally discovered the easter egg left by the production team.
In the early days of the Wasteland Era, Giant Rock City was not actually called Giant Rock City, but "Tao Town".Until they completed the expansion from the first building to the outer city with the help of an old organization called the Post-War Reconstruction Commission and built a huge concrete wall to deal with the wave.
In the following century, they seemed to have lost the ability to build huge walls and stopped expanding, instead opening up invisible territory through trade.It is also in this way that they have accumulated a lot of regional prestige in the southern part of the River Valley Province, and made the "bargaining chips" popular throughout Qingquan City, becoming a hard currency in the minds of locals... and this is also the root of the arrogance of most residents of the Rock City.
Even those wealth plundered through chips has nothing to do with them and has not improved their status quo at all.
Contacting such forces seems to be a better choice than direct means of war to win over interests.
However, it must be noted that this is also the area they are best at, and the NPCs here are far more cunning than those in the northern suburbs.
Based on the photos you took, you should be able to write an impeccable strategy.
Considering that the professional players of life who have been clamoring to go to business and want to cut NPC leeks, Fang Chang also counted the transaction prices of several major commodities at the trading station.
And put it into a table!
Thinking of the players who were waiting to be fed on the forum, a smile couldn't help but rise on Fang Chang's face.
Is this what the boss feels like?
very nice.
When he was opening other games in the past, he wrote many strategies, and several strategies written by vests were quite popular.
But the sense of accomplishment he gained from those games, even if all of them were added up, was not as good as the one he was playing now.
Just as Fang Chang put away his small notebook and was about to go to the next room to go offline to rest, Liszt's apprentice walked towards him.
The engineers and equipment are ready and we hired mercenaries who are responsible for sending us safely to your outpost.
Let's leave early tomorrow morning.
Walking to the table, Qian Lai sat down opposite Xu Shun, and continued with a smile.
This is our last night at Rock City, aren't you going out for a walk?I know a great place to drink, where the beer is good and very cheap.
Xu Shun shook her head and said.
Thanks, no need.
I still have a task.
From the moment he left the house, Xu Shun kept in mind the manager's advice and kept every word in his heart. Things like wandering may happen to anyone, but they cannot happen to him.
Seeing that Xu Shun declined his invitation, Qian Lai didn't say anything else.
He has already experienced the stubbornness of these guys.
Last night he suggested going out for some fun to celebrate. After all, he had finished all the things he should be busy with, but this guy refused without saying a word.
Not to mention the guy sitting by the window before.
It's impossible to communicate at all.
Although this is not the first time he has dealt with the Blue Jackets, it is definitely the strangest.
……
The next night.
Chu Guang saw the full version of "Jiushi City Market Research Report" published by Fang Chang on the forum.
He is worthy of being the first king of understanding in the entire server. Brother Fang’s version of understanding has never disappointed him.
The same is true this time.
Fang Chang used the strokes of his travel notes to describe in detail what they saw and heard in the Giant Rock City, as well as the situations in various industries analyzed through various clues.
Since it has returned to the communication range, the post is also accompanied by a large number of high-definition pictures.
Not only did the players say they were so excited about watching it, but the cloud players also said they were awesome.
Professor Yang, King of Thunder and Lightning: Damn!Is this the game's real-life screen?
My apologizes me: Haha, brag and don’t make drafts!
I'm a little bit lighter and I'm awesome: Awesome, I can get this half of the quality after the finished product is made. I'm just krypton-produced!
Fang Chang: ...I will update the transaction price reference form of Jushi City in the forum later. You can refer to it, but that one is for reference only!
The trade system of "Wasteland OL" is indeed very detailed, and bargaining ability and eloquence will directly affect the transaction price.Especially for some products with scarce attributes, the impact of bargaining on the final transaction price can reach 50%, or even 100%,!
Considering language issues, if you don’t want to be cheated by NPCs, you can try to hire some NPCs with high charm and high trading skills and proficiency to bargain for you!This suggestion is for reference only. If you are the kind of big guy who can master a foreign language with a completely different cultural background in less than half a year and is proficient in the usage of slang, then I don’t say it.
Quit smoking: Big guy is awesome!!
Spring Commander: Horrible!The price list was created before the new map was opened, which was too powerful!
Teng Teng: I want to open a clothing store in Giant Rock City!Can you hire locals to sell clothes for me?(° °)!
Fang Chang: The labor surplus there is serious, so it is certainly OK, but the consumption capacity of ordinary people is not very good. It is estimated that only the rich can afford beautiful clothes.It is recommended to try making protective gear such as bulletproof vests or sturdy and durable leather jackets to earn money from those mercenaries!
Teng Teng: Take notes, take notes!(Written by fast writing jpg)
Scrambled eggs with tomatoes: I, I want to open a store too!I can open a restaurant!It's OK to open a bar!(Excited)
ÁÁSesame Paste: I am responsible for delivery!Maomao Express, the mission must be achieved!
Tail: Tail is responsible for guarding!The first escort in the wasteland is here!Just leave it to the tail when fighting monsters!ψ(' )ψ
Sis: Oh!I'm responsible for watching the tail.
Makabazi: Just be responsible for making nests!(funny)
Let’s talk about it: Get out of here!
Crow: Wait, where is the mushroom?!Can mushrooms be sold for money?
Fang Chang: Uh...I only seem to see someone collecting blue umbrella mushrooms?The price given is quite high. It is said to be a raw material used to make radiation anti-radiant agents, but other varieties are rare.Maybe some pharmacies will collect it?I'll ask you later.
Crow: What the hell, do you have to have the blue mushrooms that grow in the sewer?Σ(°△°|||)︴
Irena: To be honest, are you cowardly?(funny)
Ye Shi: That day, Boss Crow recalled the fear of being overwhelmed by leeches.(funny)
Elf King Fugui: Hahaha!siskin!Ha ha ha ha!vegetable!I learned to be similar or not.(funny)
Crow: Sharks!('Д')ノ?
……
It has to be said that all these players are talents.
Chu Guang looked around on the forum.
In just a few minutes, the topic has gone from opening a clothing store and forming a caravan to fast forward to cultural conquering the wasteland world.
Conquer the wasteland with modern consumerism?
Is this a Renaissance?
emmm ……
Anyway, you will definitely not win technically.
At least in a short period of time, the gap between the two sides cannot be compensated by a few black boxes.
Not to mention that others may have that kind of thing.
However, consumption is indeed their weakness, especially in terms of consumer culture.
The nobles in the inner city were keen on the goods of the ideal city and had already separated from the public interest in enjoyment. The residents in the outer city were squeezed by the factory and couldn't breathe. Although they were basically satisfied with food, clothing, housing and transportation, they had no extra consumption capacity at all.
Mercenaries, a huge and mixed group, have been ignored by caravans who focus on the external market.
Although they are also very poor, as spring comes, business roads will be restored, and many people will make a fortune.
You will know by looking at Boss Xia.
Most mercenaries cannot save money. Those who can save money either become mercenary leaders, evolve into caravan bosses, or engage in other business deals.
These mercenaries need not only guns and food, but not everyone will calmly invest all the money they earn in themselves.
In addition to buying ammunition and supplies, as well as maintaining weapons, the remaining money will either go to the casino or be spent on cigarettes, alcohol or women.
Chu Guang felt that he could find some more sophisticated ways to spend money for them.
If his young players could design clothes, shoes, gun straps, protective gear, weapons, etc. that are not only durable and sturdy, but also contain elements that mercenaries like to watch, the products of Shelter No. 404 might not be popular in the entire Stone City bar.
If the brand effect can be established in the minds of mercenaries, maybe it will be a big hit.
What is this wave called?
Selling skin Ah!
Who says only players can buy skins?
Of course, the difficulty here is definitely very high.
No matter how difficult the residents of Jushi City live, the basic needs of food, clothing, housing and transportation can still be met, and they are definitely not as miserable as those wasteland tourists outside the wall who have no meals.
That superior arrogance can be felt just by listening to their radio.
Or... put the items sold in the past with the ideal city card?
Chu Guang's eyes turned, and he had some bad ideas in his mind, but he had to wait until the caravans on the East Coast arrived before implementing it.
And he felt that even if he didn't end, he could definitely think of the intelligence of those players.
These are all questions of detail.
The most urgent task is to quickly build the caravan system!
Chu Guang created a new folder on the desktop and typed a line of titles casually.
Alpha101 version update: Chamber of Commerce system
The B4 layer unlocking task has not been triggered yet, and more players cannot be activated for the time being. The B round test will have to wait for a while.
The version number of this update is tentatively set to Alpha101!
After the matter is done.
Chu Guang took a picture, marked the version number and threw it on the forum.
Guang: I’m doing it, I’m doing it, everyone works hard, and wait until the ‘Sword Forging a Plow’ expansion pack is over and the farming system test is completed, we will immediately open the new map and brand new game content!Test your 10 versions of the business running system!
Almost the moment the post was posted, the number of replies soared to two-digit numbers, and the effort of refreshing was even more focused on the triple-digit numbers.
Quit smoking: Wait, why are there only a folder?
Sce: What about the things inside?Let me be healthy!
Ye Shi: The fake Brother Guang, the real Brother Biao.(funny)
Yazhi: Damn it, it would be great if our planner could have a warm manager who is half kind!T^T
Looking at the reply below, Chu Guang's brows pounded violently.
These guys!
Does it take time to arrange NPCs that can communicate?
Do you need to save the Ah when traveling for two and a half days?Should the communication base station also be a whole?Do these things use electricity?
And the most important thing is that you are going to run all the new map and go to the new map. Who will plow the land?
Let’s not talk about sowing.
At least I have to finish the land reclamation work.
Do you still need your manager to do this in the process of destruction?
Chu Guang felt that what he had already suggested was obvious.
hateful!
I've just updated it, why do you want me to update it again!
Chu Guang cursed and closed the forum, finished drinking the cup of homemade sparkling water on the table, and opened the P Club game to watch the sea.
……
the next day.
The south side of the outpost nursing home.
An old-fashioned man was touching his chin and looking at the surrounding buildings, chanting something to himself.
Since he didn't have a VM on his arm, many players were curious about him, but they didn't pay much attention to him.
As we all know, NPCs without VMs cannot receive tasks normally.
...Since the invasion of the chewing bone tribe on the front battlefield, the morale and confidence of survivors in the northern suburbs have reached a peak, and the prestige of local leaders has also reached an unprecedented level. An emerging survivor force is emerging, which may change the long-standing chaotic pattern of the northern suburbs.
There is a large amount of undeveloped land and sufficient labor. Although the infrastructure is backward and there is no support for supporting industries, it is precisely because of this that there are huge business opportunities hidden in it.
Just as Elder Fang posted a market survey on the Rock City on the forum, Liszt also completed the investigation of the area under the rule of Shelter No. 404.
But he didn't use the small notebook.
Instead, it uses a portable flexible screen computer.
This kind of gadget is very convenient. It is like a pen when storing it. When it needs to be used, it only needs to be unfolded like tearing a scroll. The screen size can be adjusted according to usage habits.
This high-end product that integrates a large number of carbon-based optical and electronic components is not something that Jushicheng has the ability to produce.
However, every year, there are merchants coming from the East Coast to bring this rare thing from the distant ideal city.
...Yes, you have to add the title of permanent partner of the company.
This is also what interests Liszt the most.
Just a few hours ago, he had confirmed through his own channels that Refuge No. 404 did receive that extremely rare honor or contract.
There are only two plains across the east and west across the river valley province. The north side has been blocked by the chewing bone tribe. It is almost foreseeable that a large number of caravans will pass by here this year.
Thinking of this, a hint of expectation rose on Liszt's face.
If he could seize this historic opportunity, he might be able to make unimaginable chips in previous years, and his assets would grow rapidly like a Rocket!
What is that word called?
right!
Win-win!
How is the survey?
A familiar voice came from behind.
Liszt turned around and saw Chu Guang walking towards him, saying with a gaze.
It's done!Surprisingly, the situation is much better than I expected, although there are many problems that need to be solved.For example, you lack stable electricity, but it is commendable that you actually built a steel factory in the ruins.
Chu Guang said with a happy look.
The issue of electricity supply will be solved by the end of the month. Our engineers are already designing the power grid in the industrial zone and building centralized thermal power stations. Is there anything else?
There is also a drainage system, Liszt pondered for a while and continued, if you plan to keep the caravans at your place next year, at least you have to make sure that they don’t step on bad things, such as excrement, when they walk on the street.
Chu Guang was stunned.
Damn it?
Is this a matter??
Liszt coughed lightly.
No...I'm just giving an example. After all, your new settlement has a size of two thousand people, but I found that there are only five toilets that rely on manpower to carry manure.Indeed, locals can solve convenient problems in the fields, but what about foreign travelers?Where is the business?And their guards, entourages and servants, it is impossible to go to the fields to solve the problem so by the rules.
Chu Guang touched his chin.
This is a problem, is there any other one?
That's it for the time being?Liszt hesitated for a moment and said, "But it's all trivial matters, so I just said casually, don't take it too seriously."
There is nothing trivial here for me, Chu Guang shook his head and said seriously that this problem will be solved within a month.
Liszt was slightly surprised and then smiled and said.
It seems that the northern suburbs have met a wise manager, no wonder the people here are full of confidence in the future.
Chu Guang: Thank you for the praise.
Liszt This is not a compliment, it is a reality I confirm with my eyes.I have many types of clients, including farmers like Brown, local rich men like your old rival, and slave owners and mine owners in Honghe Town... Few people regard ordinary people's problems as problems that need to be solved.From my perspective, I certainly hope that your residents will live a better life so that they can have the money to buy my goods.
Clearing his throat, Liszt continued confidently.
Perhaps, I should be more confident in your future... By the way, you seem to be short of agricultural machinery?I happened to know a factory owner who mainly makes engines and various power components. His warehouse stocked up a large number of agricultural machinery and firewood engines. I also used his own goods in the plantation in the south, and the quality was very reliable.
If you need it, I can order a batch for you!For the sake of our friendship, I can give you a 10% discount.
It's okay to get a 10% discount.
Then the price you see is actually discounted?
Chu Guang almost forgot this guy without saying this.
However, now is not the time to reminisce.
Chu Guang asked immediately.
Do you have a plantation in the south?
In order to show his strength to his partners, Liszt did not hide it at all and said with a smile.
That’s right, not just the plantation, but also the long-term contracts between me and the local survivors. The rubber produced belongs to me and biomass oil belongs to them. Every quarter, I will take the daily necessities they need and buy some of the things they need back.If you are interested, we can also cooperate.You provide the site and are responsible for safety. I provide manual farming and we can produce 50% of the things we produce.
What Chu Guang cares about is not his proposal, but the information he revealed in the proposal.
The south of Qingquan City seems to have a better development environment than here, and many businessmen in Giant Rock City own industries such as plantations there.
And that is the blind spot of your own vision.
Perhaps I should take advantage of the beginning of spring and take advantage of the opportunity of the recovery of the trade route and send a few people to touch the surrounding Qingquan City.
Chu Guang thought for a moment and said.
This sounds like a very attractive proposal, but we plan to use more efficient centralized cultivation of cash crops, so let’s talk about those agricultural machines.
no problem.
Liszt was not surprised by Chu Guang's polite refusal.
He walked around the northern suburbs and saw no slave, at most he had only prisoners of war. It was obvious that slavery was not popular in this survivor settlement.
In fact, slavery is indeed an inefficient means of production compared to the employment system.Even with the same standard of living, the free people's enthusiasm for work will be significantly better than that of slaves.
Therefore, even in the Giant Rock City, which recognizes the legitimacy of slaves, few factories will arrange slaves to work on the assembly line.
Chu Guang gave Liszt a list and purchased 10 Iron Horse 60 Camel Machines.
Although this thing does not use any particularly advanced technology, it is a serious heavy equipment and is naturally much more expensive than the KV-1 exoskeleton's small arms and calves.
According to data provided by Liszt, the total weight of this set of pot-camcorder is about 500 kilograms and can provide up to 60 horsepower.
Compared with the 8-10 horsepower pot cuckoo machine that players imitate and improve, and the 20-30 model common to the Legion light truck, the 500 kilogram can provide a maximum of 60 horsepower, which is indeed a black technology.
Refuge No. 404 does not lack light power equipment, but such heavy power equipment is still lacking.
Whether used in construction machinery or in land reclamation work, these equipment is enough to more than double the original efficiency.
Compared with fuel engines, the benefits of this kind of machinery are obvious. They are easy to manufacture, simple to maintain, and use power everywhere, so they are quite popular in wasteland.
However, relatively speaking, the price is quite expensive.
The unit price of a unit has reached an astonishing 5,000 chips, equivalent to one hundred iron pipe rifles, or 30 automatic rifles.
According to the quotation of 5,000 chips, if Chu Guang wants to buy these equipment, he will need to pay 50,000 chips to Liszt.
Chu Guang naturally doesn’t have that many bargaining chips.
It is impossible to give him so much foreign exchange reserves.
But it doesn't matter.
It is a strange thing to pay directly, and bartering is the norm in wasteland.
In the warehouse of the outpost, hundreds of tons of spiritual leaves were stored, all of which were cut from the greenhouse ruins.
After some bargaining, the deal was finally completed with 10 pot machines for 1,000 kilograms of spirit leaves.
Although Liszt repeatedly stated that 50 chips of a kilogram of Spirit Leaf were the price at the Giant Rock City, and it was not possible to sell this price at all times.
He transported these goods back to the Stone City, and it was impossible for him to not make a single chip.
However, Chu Guang certainly would not believe his nonsense and replied without hesitation.
5,000 chips, one iron horse, 60 pot canister, isn’t this the price of Giant Rock City?And it's the price you quoted me.
And I don’t think that 1,000 kilograms of spiritual leaves can only be sold at a price of 50 per kilogram in your hands. It is still winter. Spiritual leaves are summer crops, and the demand for the environment and soil is quite harsh. Can you get so many goods from other places?
The pharmaceutical factory in Jushi City will beg you to sell this batch of goods to them, just like you believe in my management ability, and I also believe that your business mind must know what to do.
Chu Guang believed that Liszt would not be so stupid that he falsely reported an outrageous price to himself, and to affect the cooperation of millions of dollars for just 50,000 chips.
But he also didn't believe that what Liszt gave himself was the ex-factory price.
Just as this guy said himself, the straight-line distance on the map must be more than 40 kilometers, and the actual distance is even 100.
Both people and transport require money.
He can't do charity.
Management ability?It’s really a pity if you don’t do business!
Looking at the order in his hand, although he still made some profits, Liszt couldn't help but complain quietly before silently putting the order in his hand.
Chu Guang smiled.
hehe.
How do you know I haven't done it?
I just think you are praising me.
Mental leaves are widely used. They can make tea, stuff cigarettes, and can also be made into mental water with stronger calming effects and more obvious pain bluntness. They are the most popular medicines on wasteland, as well as Dali Pills, Mint, radiation-removing agents, radiation-resistant agents and various antibiotics.
Although not every mercenary has the habit of using enhancement drugs, even if the proportion accounts for only one-third, it is a very amazing market.
The amount of 1 ton should not be enough to cause the price to fluctuate significantly.
Considering that the caravan at the outpost had not been formed yet, Chu Guang made a little concession in price.
After the caravan is formed, he will make the money by himself.
This batch of goods will be delivered within a week. When my assistant comes back, I will ask him to go there again immediately!I didn’t expect that I could actually see a large order of more than 10,000 chips in the northern suburbs. It was really strange... It seems that the caravan needs to be expanded this year.
Speaking of this, Liszt's tone couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
In the past, I went all over the northern suburbs, so I just earned 10,000 or 20,000 chips.
How like now?
You can make so much money with just one transaction.
And it's not just bargaining chips, but also the resources behind it.
Maybe it won't take long to enter the inner city and live the upper class life I dream of.
Hearing Liszt's feelings, Chu Guang's heart suddenly moved.
Do you need a guard?
Liszt, who was daydreaming, replied without hesitation.
Of course, excellent guards are short of any time. Even if we occasionally hire mercenaries to make up the numbers, it is impossible to make everyone in the entire team make up the numbers.The combat power of those mercenaries is of varying quality and average quality. Only a few mercenary groups are OK, and most of them are just a little better than the plunderers.
A bright smile appeared on Chu Guang's face.
That's really great.
Liszt was stunned.
...Sorry, I didn't understand, what do you mean?
Chu Guang cleared his throat and said seriously.
I mean, in fact, in addition to providing high-quality products, we also provide logistics and security outsourcing business.
If your caravan needs escort, I can provide it here!
Not only facilities, but also population.
If you want to conduct in-depth investigations into the customs and customs here, a week may not be enough.
What's more, the new map experience card is only valid for three days...
The next evening.
Sitting next to the window, Fangchang looked at the gradually bustling street outside the window, and put away the small notebook and pen in his hand.
Overall, the progress is still going smoothly.
Except for the inner city, the exploration level of the outer city has reached 60%, and the things that need to be understood have basically been investigated.
Especially those that go deep into the social level.
And this part was also what surprised him the most.
Unlike small survivor settlements such as Bate Street and Brown Farm, the Rock City is not only huge, but also different from the "feudal lord-style" rule in most small and medium-sized survivor settlements, but it is more like a complex collection of interests.
The city lord is the highest power here, with command of the militia regiment, but he does not participate in the specific things in the city, nor does he engage in any asset management. He is only responsible for dealing with the waves and other threats, and getting money from the vault of the city hall.
The residents living here have built a bureaucratic system that suits them, responsible for handling messy things and taxation.However, due to the inability to directly obtain the support of violent machines, their dominance over the region is very weak, and even when solving certain problems, they have to rely on the help of some "big people".
Interestingly, while communicating with NPC, I accidentally discovered the easter egg left by the production team.
In the early days of the Wasteland Era, Giant Rock City was not actually called Giant Rock City, but "Tao Town".Until they completed the expansion from the first building to the outer city with the help of an old organization called the Post-War Reconstruction Commission and built a huge concrete wall to deal with the wave.
In the following century, they seemed to have lost the ability to build huge walls and stopped expanding, instead opening up invisible territory through trade.It is also in this way that they have accumulated a lot of regional prestige in the southern part of the River Valley Province, and made the "bargaining chips" popular throughout Qingquan City, becoming a hard currency in the minds of locals... and this is also the root of the arrogance of most residents of the Rock City.
Even those wealth plundered through chips has nothing to do with them and has not improved their status quo at all.

Fang Chang: Uh...I only seem to see someone collecting blue umbrella mushrooms?The price given is quite high. It is said to be a raw material used to make radiation anti-radiant agents, but other varieties are rare.Maybe some pharmacies will collect it?I'll ask you later.
Crow: What the hell, do you have to have the blue mushrooms that grow in the sewer?Σ(°△°|||)︴
Irena: To be honest, are you cowardly?(funny)
Ye Shi: That day, Boss Crow recalled the fear of being overwhelmed by leeches.(funny)
Elf King Fugui: Hahaha!siskin!Ha ha ha ha!vegetable!I learned to be similar or not.(funny)
Crow: Sharks!('Д')ノ?
……
It has to be said that all these players are talents.
Chu Guang looked around on the forum.
In just a few minutes, the topic has gone from opening a clothing store and forming a caravan to fast forward to cultural conquering the wasteland world.
Conquer the wasteland with modern consumerism?
Is this a Renaissance?
emmm ……
Anyway, you will definitely not win technically.
At least in a short period of time, the gap between the two sides cannot be compensated by a few black boxes.
Not to mention that others may have that kind of thing.
However, consumption is indeed their weakness, especially in terms of consumer culture.
The nobles in the inner city were keen on the goods of the ideal city and had already separated from the public interest in enjoyment. The residents in the outer city were squeezed by the factory and couldn't breathe. Although they were basically satisfied with food, clothing, housing and transportation, they had no extra consumption capacity at all.
Mercenaries, a huge and mixed group, have been ignored by caravans who focus on the external market.
Although they are also very poor, as spring comes, business roads will be restored, and many people will make a fortune.
You will know by looking at Boss Xia.
Most mercenaries cannot save money. Those who can save money either become mercenary leaders, evolve into caravan bosses, or engage in other business deals.
These mercenaries need not only guns and food, but not everyone will calmly invest all the money they earn in themselves.
In addition to buying ammunition and supplies, as well as maintaining weapons, the remaining money will either go to the casino or be spent on cigarettes, alcohol or women.
Chu Guang felt that he could find some more sophisticated ways to spend money for them.
If his young players could design clothes, shoes, gun straps, protective gear, weapons, etc. that are not only durable and sturdy, but also contain elements that mercenaries like to watch, the products of Shelter No. 404 might not be popular in the entire Stone City bar.
If the brand effect can be established in the minds of mercenaries, maybe it will be a big hit.
What is this wave called?
Selling skin Ah!
Who says only players can buy skins?
Of course, the difficulty here is definitely very high.
No matter how difficult the residents of Jushi City live, the basic needs of food, clothing, housing and transportation can still be met, and they are definitely not as miserable as those wasteland tourists outside the wall who have no meals.
That superior arrogance can be felt just by listening to their radio.
Or... put the items sold in the past with the ideal city card?
Chu Guang's eyes turned, and he had some bad ideas in his mind, but he had to wait until the caravans on the East Coast arrived before implementing it.
And he felt that even if he didn't end, he could definitely think of the intelligence of those players.
These are all questions of detail.
The most urgent task is to quickly build the caravan system!
Chu Guang created a new folder on the desktop and typed a line of titles casually.
Alpha101 version update: Chamber of Commerce system
The B4 layer unlocking task has not been triggered yet, and more players cannot be activated for the time being. The B round test will have to wait for a while.
The version number of this update is tentatively set to Alpha101!
After the matter is done.
Chu Guang took a picture, marked the version number and threw it on the forum.
Guang: I’m doing it, I’m doing it, everyone works hard, and wait until the ‘Sword Forging a Plow’ expansion pack is over and the farming system test is completed, we will immediately open the new map and brand new game content!Test your 10 versions of the business running system!
Almost the moment the post was posted, the number of replies soared to two-digit numbers, and the effort of refreshing was even more focused on the triple-digit numbers.
Quit smoking: Wait, why are there only a folder?
Sce: What about the things inside?Let me be healthy!
Ye Shi: The fake Brother Guang, the real Brother Biao.(funny)
Yazhi: Damn it, it would be great if our planner could have a warm manager who is half kind!T^T
Looking at the reply below, Chu Guang's brows pounded violently.
These guys!
Does it take time to arrange NPCs that can communicate?
Do you need to save the Ah when traveling for two and a half days?Should the communication base station also be a whole?Do these things use electricity?
And the most important thing is that you are going to run all the new map and go to the new map. Who will plow the land?
Let’s not talk about sowing.
At least I have to finish the land reclamation work.
Do you still need your manager to do this in the process of destruction?
Chu Guang felt that what he had already suggested was obvious.
hateful!
I've just updated it, why do you want me to update it again!
Chu Guang cursed and closed the forum, finished drinking the cup of homemade sparkling water on the table, and opened the P Club game to watch the sea.
……
the next day.
The south side of the outpost nursing home.
An old-fashioned man was touching his chin and looking at the surrounding buildings, chanting something to himself.
Since he didn't have a VM on his arm, many players were curious about him, but they didn't pay much attention to him.
As we all know, NPCs without VMs cannot receive tasks normally.
...Since the invasion of the chewing bone tribe on the front battlefield, the morale and confidence of survivors in the northern suburbs have reached a peak, and the prestige of local leaders has also reached an unprecedented level. An emerging survivor force is emerging, which may change the long-standing chaotic pattern of the northern suburbs.
There is a large amount of undeveloped land and sufficient labor. Although the infrastructure is backward and there is no support for supporting industries, it is precisely because of this that there are huge business opportunities hidden in it.
Just as Elder Fang posted a market survey on the Rock City on the forum, Liszt also completed the investigation of the area under the rule of Shelter No. 404.
But he didn't use the small notebook.
Instead, it uses a portable flexible screen computer.
This kind of gadget is very convenient. It is like a pen when storing it. When it needs to be used, it only needs to be unfolded like tearing a scroll. The screen size can be adjusted according to usage habits.
This high-end product that integrates a large number of carbon-based optical and electronic components is not something that Jushicheng has the ability to produce.
However, every year, there are merchants coming from the East Coast to bring this rare thing from the distant ideal city.
...Yes, you have to add the title of permanent partner of the company.
This is also what interests Liszt the most.
Just a few hours ago, he had confirmed through his own channels that Refuge No. 404 did receive that extremely rare honor or contract.
There are only two plains across the east and west across the river valley province. The north side has been blocked by the chewing bone tribe. It is almost foreseeable that a large number of caravans will pass by here this year.
Thinking of this, a hint of expectation rose on Liszt's face.
If he could seize this historic opportunity, he might be able to make unimaginable chips in previous years, and his assets would grow rapidly like a Rocket!
What is that word called?
right!
Win-win!
How is the survey?
A familiar voice came from behind.
Liszt turned around and saw Chu Guang walking towards him, saying with a gaze.
It's done!Surprisingly, the situation is much better than I expected, although there are many problems that need to be solved.For example, you lack stable electricity, but it is commendable that you actually built a steel factory in the ruins.
Chu Guang said with a happy look.
The issue of electricity supply will be solved by the end of the month. Our engineers are already designing the power grid in the industrial zone and building centralized thermal power stations. Is there anything else?
There is also a drainage system, Liszt pondered for a while and continued, if you plan to keep the caravans at your place next year, at least you have to make sure that they don’t step on bad things, such as excrement, when they walk on the street.
Chu Guang was stunned.
Damn it?
Is this a matter??
Liszt coughed lightly.
No...I'm just giving an example. After all, your new settlement has a size of two thousand people, but I found that there are only five toilets that rely on manpower to carry manure.Indeed, locals can solve convenient problems in the fields, but what about foreign travelers?Where is the business?And their guards, entourages and servants, it is impossible to go to the fields to solve the problem so by the rules.
Chu Guang touched his chin.
This is a problem, is there any other one?
That's it for the time being?Liszt hesitated for a moment and said, "But it's all trivial matters, so I just said casually, don't take it too seriously."
There is nothing trivial here for me, Chu Guang shook his head and said seriously that this problem will be solved within a month.
Liszt was slightly surprised and then smiled and said.
It seems that the northern suburbs have met a wise manager, no wonder the people here are full of confidence in the future.
Chu Guang: Thank you for the praise.
Liszt This is not a compliment, it is a reality I confirm with my eyes.I have many types of clients, including farmers like Brown, local rich men like your old rival, and slave owners and mine owners in Honghe Town... Few people regard ordinary people's problems as problems that need to be solved.From my perspective, I certainly hope that your residents will live a better life so that they can have the money to buy my goods.
Clearing his throat, Liszt continued confidently.
Perhaps, I should be more confident in your future... By the way, you seem to be short of agricultural machinery?I happened to know a factory owner who mainly makes engines and various power components. His warehouse stocked up a large number of agricultural machinery and firewood engines. I also used his own goods in the plantation in the south, and the quality was very reliable.
If you need it, I can order a batch for you!For the sake of our friendship, I can give you a 10% discount.
It's okay to get a 10% discount.
Then the price you see is actually discounted?
Chu Guang almost forgot this guy without saying this.
However, now is not the time to reminisce.
Chu Guang asked immediately.
Do you have a plantation in the south?
In order to show his strength to his partners, Liszt did not hide it at all and said with a smile.
That’s right, not just the plantation, but also the long-term contracts between me and the local survivors. The rubber produced belongs to me and biomass oil belongs to them. Every quarter, I will take the daily necessities they need and buy some of the things they need back.If you are interested, we can also cooperate.You provide the site and are responsible for safety. I provide manual farming and we can produce 50% of the things we produce.
What Chu Guang cares about is not his proposal, but the information he revealed in the proposal.
The south of Qingquan City seems to have a better development environment than here, and many businessmen in Giant Rock City own industries such as plantations there.
And that is the blind spot of your own vision.
Perhaps I should take advantage of the beginning of spring and take advantage of the opportunity of the recovery of the trade route and send a few people to touch the surrounding Qingquan City.
Chu Guang thought for a moment and said.
This sounds like a very attractive proposal, but we plan to use more efficient centralized cultivation of cash crops, so let’s talk about those agricultural machines.
no problem.
Liszt was not surprised by Chu Guang's polite refusal.
He walked around the northern suburbs and saw no slave, at most he had only prisoners of war. It was obvious that slavery was not popular in this survivor settlement.
In fact, slavery is indeed an inefficient means of production compared to the employment system.Even with the same standard of living, the free people's enthusiasm for work will be significantly better than that of slaves.
Therefore, even in the Giant Rock City, which recognizes the legitimacy of slaves, few factories will arrange slaves to work on the assembly line.
Chu Guang gave Liszt a list and purchased 10 Iron Horse 60 Camel Machines.
Although this thing does not use any particularly advanced technology, it is a serious heavy equipment and is naturally much more expensive than the KV-1 exoskeleton's small arms and calves.
According to data provided by Liszt, the total weight of this set of pot-camcorder is about 500 kilograms and can provide up to 60 horsepower.
Compared with the 8-10 horsepower pot cuckoo machine that players imitate and improve, and the 20-30 model common to the Legion light truck, the 500 kilogram can provide a maximum of 60 horsepower, which is indeed a black technology.
Refuge No. 404 does not lack light power equipment, but such heavy power equipment is still lacking.
Whether used in construction machinery or in land reclamation work, these equipment is enough to more than double the original efficiency.
Compared with fuel engines, the benefits of this kind of machinery are obvious. They are easy to manufacture, simple to maintain, and use power everywhere, so they are quite popular in wasteland.
However, relatively speaking, the price is quite expensive.
The unit price of a unit has reached an astonishing 5,000 chips, equivalent to one hundred iron pipe rifles, or 30 automatic rifles.
According to the quotation of 5,000 chips, if Chu Guang wants to buy these equipment, he will need to pay 50,000 chips to Liszt.
Chu Guang naturally doesn’t have that many bargaining chips.
It is impossible to give him so much foreign exchange reserves.
But it doesn't matter.
It is a strange thing to pay directly, and bartering is the norm in wasteland.
In the warehouse of the outpost, hundreds of tons of spiritual leaves were stored, all of which were cut from the greenhouse ruins.
After some bargaining, the deal was finally completed with 10 pot machines for 1,000 kilograms of spirit leaves.
Although Liszt repeatedly stated that 50 chips of a kilogram of Spirit Leaf were the price at the Giant Rock City, and it was not possible to sell this price at all times.
He transported these goods back to the Stone City, and it was impossible for him to not make a single chip.
However, Chu Guang certainly would not believe his nonsense and replied without hesitation.
5,000 chips, one iron horse, 60 pot canister, isn’t this the price of Giant Rock City?And it's the price you quoted me.
And I don’t think that 1,000 kilograms of spiritual leaves can only be sold at a price of 50 per kilogram in your hands. It is still winter. Spiritual leaves are summer crops, and the demand for the environment and soil is quite harsh. Can you get so many goods from other places?
The pharmaceutical factory in Jushi City will beg you to sell this batch of goods to them, just like you believe in my management ability, and I also believe that your business mind must know what to do.
Chu Guang believed that Liszt would not be so stupid that he falsely reported an outrageous price to himself, and to affect the cooperation of millions of dollars for just 50,000 chips.
But he also didn't believe that what Liszt gave himself was the ex-factory price.
Just as this guy said himself, the straight-line distance on the map must be more than 40 kilometers, and the actual distance is even 100.
Both people and transport require money.
He can't do charity.
Management ability?It’s really a pity if you don’t do business!
Looking at the order in his hand, although he still made some profits, Liszt couldn't help but complain quietly before silently putting the order in his hand.
Chu Guang smiled.
hehe.
How do you know I haven't done it?
I just think you are praising me.
Mental leaves are widely used. They can make tea, stuff cigarettes, and can also be made into mental water with stronger calming effects and more obvious pain bluntness. They are the most popular medicines on wasteland, as well as Dali Pills, Mint, radiation-removing agents, radiation-resistant agents and various antibiotics.
Although not every mercenary has the habit of using enhancement drugs, even if the proportion accounts for only one-third, it is a very amazing market.
The amount of 1 ton should not be enough to cause the price to fluctuate significantly.
Considering that the caravan at the outpost had not been formed yet, Chu Guang made a little concession in price.
After the caravan is formed, he will make the money by himself.
This batch of goods will be delivered within a week. When my assistant comes back, I will ask him to go there again immediately!I didn’t expect that I could actually see a large order of more than 10,000 chips in the northern suburbs. It was really strange... It seems that the caravan needs to be expanded this year.
Speaking of this, Liszt's tone couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
In the past, I went all over the northern suburbs, so I just earned 10,000 or 20,000 chips.
How like now?
You can make so much money with just one transaction.
And it's not just bargaining chips, but also the resources behind it.
Maybe it won't take long to enter the inner city and live the upper class life I dream of.
Hearing Liszt's feelings, Chu Guang's heart suddenly moved.
Do you need a guard?
Liszt, who was daydreaming, replied without hesitation.
Of course, excellent guards are short of any time. Even if we occasionally hire mercenaries to make up the numbers, it is impossible to make everyone in the entire team make up the numbers.The combat power of those mercenaries is of varying quality and average quality. Only a few mercenary groups are OK, and most of them are just a little better than the plunderers.
A bright smile appeared on Chu Guang's face.
That's really great.
Liszt was stunned.
...Sorry, I didn't understand, what do you mean?
Chu Guang cleared his throat and said seriously.
I mean, in fact, in addition to providing high-quality products, we also provide logistics and security outsourcing business.
If your caravan needs escort, I can provide it here!
