Chapter 1100 NAC Navy

8days ago Celebrity fiction 15
The east coast of the North American continent has formed loose separatist forces, mainly concentrated in Los Angeles and San Francisco.The warship at the White Whale Expedition Station anchored the Los Angeles coast and sent a small boat to send our people to the North American continent.

After arriving on the North American continent, our men set up posts on the West Coast and sent soldiers to explore the direction of Los Angeles.In the suburbs of Los Angeles, we encounter a heterogeneous species similar to a mutant lizard.They live in groups and are very aggressive, but fortunately our people discovered them first.After fixing them, our people successfully arrived in Los Angeles.

The entire Los Angeles is in ruins, similar to Shanghai, but the population is much smaller.According to locals, there are large and small settlements of survivors throughout the West Coast, mainly the National Guard, the militia organization "One Minute People", the cannibal tribe "Bloods", and the mutant tribe "Destruction".

The local livestock industry is very developed and our people have found large herds of double-headed cattle on the edge of the desert in California.Their double-headed cattle are a circle bigger than us because they eat a fern that can reduce the radiation value. The double-headed cattle have low radiation and are relatively delicious in meat.Survivors mainly use subcrystals and xenococcles as currency for trade, and in addition to this, there is something interesting...

As he said that, Chu Nan took out something from his pocket and threw it gently on the table.

...We found this locally and brought it back from the warship of the return beluga inspection station.

Is this... a bottle cap?Looking at the bottle cap turning on the table, Jiang Chen was stunned.

To be precise, it is a limited edition bottled Coke bottle cap issued by Coca-Cola Company after 2168.The nickel-plated anti-counterfeiting logo of Coca-Cola is added on it. Each bottle of Coke has a specific number and is stored in the database located in the California Coke Factory.Speaking of this, Chu Nan grinned. The Coke Factory is now controlled by the California National Guard as their money printing machine.

Use bottle caps as currency?Jiang Chen asked with a strange expression.

Yes, this kind of thing is difficult to forge. Every factory bottle cap is automatically entered into the database. It is said that this currency is used throughout the West Coast and even some inland states.However, this type of bottle cap seems to have a very strong inflation. It is said that a slightly better rifle requires 10,000 bottle caps. An adult double-headed cow is worth 10,000 yuan. A National Guard power armor needs to wait for the bottle cap. It is even more astronomical. It is said to be 10 million?I'm not sure, either.

Where did they get so much nickel?Jiang Chen couldn't help asking.

Although nickel is not a rare earth, it is more inseparable than rare earths in wasteland, not to mention North America, which is already nickel-poor.

The reason is no different, because the demand is too high, from power armor to tanks, there is nothing that is missing.

The amount of waste recycling alone is not enough, that is, the NAC backed by the current world can be avoided from the problem of nickel deficiency.

In order to smuggle a little nickel from the NAC, the Northern Union District has racked its brains. However, survivors on the West Coast of North America actually used nickel to cast bottle caps?

They certainly don't have that much nickel.Chu Nan shrugged and said with a smile, so when our people asked for trade to the California National Guard, the first thing they asked was: ‘Do you have nickel?’

Hearing this, Jiang Chen already understood.

For survivors on the West Coast of North America, nickel is equivalent to gold.

But what kind of basic currency should this be considered?

Nickel standard?

Or anti-counterfeiting code?

In addition, Jiang Chen also heard some other information from what Chu Nan said.

For example, since those survivors have used all nickel to mint coins, their industrial level must be less than much higher. At most, like the Sixth Block four years ago, everything from rifles to power armor is handmade.

Chu Nan looked at Jiang Chen. He had probably guessed what his boss was thinking, so he asked tentatively, what are your plans?

What he is most worried about now is that his boss suddenly patted his head and decided to send thousands of soldiers to land in California to liberate America.

This is not a question of whether to do it or not. He believes that with the strength of NAC, there is no problem at all to crush the West Coast.

However, doing so has no meaning at all.

Now the NAC's strength range is only from Shanghai to Wushi. There are too many places that can be expanded south. Several survivors in Fuzhou are so rich that there is no benefit in colonizing the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

But he was thinking too much, so how could Jiang Chen not understand this truth?

The outposts on the West Coast have temporarily maintained a scale of fifty people, and the extra ones can easily arouse the vigilance of local forces.

Don't be idle either. Let them investigate what specialties worth getting on the west coast of North America, and then see what the local survivors lack in addition to metal resources.In three days, I need you to organize all the information into a form and give it to me. Can I do it?

Chu Nan smiled confidently and said, "No problem, maybe it won't take three days at all."

By the way, there is another thing, please help me with reference.

Marshal said though.Chu Nan said respectfully.

I plan to form a navy, what do you think?Although it was a negotiation, Jiang Chen had no intention of negotiation in his tone.

He has been planning to form the NAC Navy since a long time ago.

It was unnecessary in the past, but with the expansion of NAC, its own market is far from enough to support the booming light and heavy industries. On this basis, trade routes are established, and the proportion of oceans in the interests of the entire NAC is becoming increasingly large.

However, the Haiquan is in the hands of the White Whale Expedition Station.

There is a saying that goes, how can you allow others to snore on the side of the bed?

In the past, the NAC did not have the energy to expand into the ocean when hiring a beluga inspection station to escort it. At the same time, they were worried that these guys with ships and guns would do pirates.

As for the sonar that drives away small seaborne alien species, the sample has been researched some time ago at Camp No. 27, but it has not had the chance to take it out and use it.

After hearing Jiang Chen's words, a hint of joy flashed through Chu Nan's pupils.

Marshal is wise!

I didn't let you flatter me, I was asking you for your opinion.Jiang Chen cursed with a smile.

NAC should have its own navy long ago!If I have to ask, this is my only opinion.Chu Nan laughed and patted his thighs. After laughing enough, he paused for a while and looked at Jiang Chen and said seriously, "I think the same as yours. NAC's sea power must be maintained by NAC itself."The only trouble now is how the people at the White Whale Inspection Station will think about this.

Hearing Chu Nan's words, Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

The opinions of the White Whale Expedition Station are indeed a problem. Now almost all the oceans in the entire Pan Asia region are monopolized in their hands. Any fleet that wants to conduct far-sea trade has to sign a protection agreement with them, and their lives are very comfortable.

If the NAC starts to develop the navy, it will undoubtedly be like moving their cake.

Unless, find a suitable entry point...

Thinking hard, Jiang Chen's gaze unconsciously fell on the Pan Asia map on the office wall.

As his eyes moved to the sea near Shanghai, a brilliant idea suddenly came to his mind.

A suitable reason, or excuse.

Even if the White Whale Inspection Station complains, there is no excuse to say.
