Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 353: planning

Views:

Bai Chen, Long Yuehong and Genava, who had split up again, came to the "Wolf's Den" near Westport.

"This is an introductory textbook for you in Honghe language. You will be familiar with it for a few days, and then someone will teach you." Bai Chen handed over the "books" that Genova scanned and typed to a place to print out and preliminarily bound. Su Na, Li Qiong and others.

Su Na was very surprised:

"It's so fast, isn't it ready?"

"How do you know?" Long Yuehong blurted out.

Suna showed a shallow dimple, raised the translator in her hand and said:

"I asked it out of those, those servants' mouths."

"This is the textbook we used to learn Honghe language before. It's just made some revisions, and we also have a robot assistant, which can save a lot of time." Most of what Bai Chen said was true.

Suna and the others don't really understand why a robot assistant can save a lot of time, but since those amazing, powerful, and very good people have said so, they believe it.

As soon as the textbooks were distributed, Su Na and the others couldn't wait to flip through them, chattering to each other:

"How to read this?"

"Isn't there a phonetic use of words?"

"I, I can't read..."

"Hey, I'll teach you."

Seeing this scene, Bai Chen and Long Yuehong discovered that when they were writing the textbook yesterday, they made a mistake because they were too hasty:

Different from the students who started to learn the Honghe language in "Panga", a large part of the women in "Wolf's Nest" did not even master the gray soil script, and a small number were even illiterate.

Fortunately, Su Na, Qin Xiaozhen, and Du Yumei are barely literate and can teach others.

"Looks like I still have to get an introductory textbook on gray soil..." Long Yuehong whispered, and subconsciously turned his attention to Genova.

Smart people are really better than carbon-based people in some ways.

Genova nodded, indicating that this was not a problem.

After Suna and the others calmed down, Bai Chen asked:

"Is there enough food?"

"Enough." Li Qiong nodded first, "Boss, uh, Auger has kept a lot of food in the building, about half a month's worth, and, besides, that marijuana business is very good, and it is very profitable..."

Having said this, Su Na interrupted her:

"However, when we get a firm foothold, we won't do it again. Those people are just crazy, especially those who smoked the new Elysium product. If they don't have the money to smoke them in time, I look at them for them. It's uncomfortable, if we didn't have guns and frightened some people, they might just grab it!"

She spoke a little messily, lingering fears about what happened last night.

"yes."

"right."

"… "

Many women present joined in.

Bai Chen nodded:

"That's good."

Suna hesitated for a while, but still asked:

"If we don't sell it, will those people go crazy, will they come to rob us, or will they die because of it?"

"You need good marksmanship at this time." Bai Chen replied calmly, "If you can quit, you can quit, and if you can't quit, it's a good thing for him and his family to die early."

Bai Chen did not continue the topic, and instead said:

"What do you plan to do for a living in the future, what are your thoughts?"

Su Na showed an expression of recall, and said unpleasantly:

"We're going to remodel the first floor, but we're not going to be a hot pot restaurant, but a fast food restaurant. The hot pot you mentioned requires too many spices and ingredients, and the price will definitely not be low. It can only do business for sailors and merchants. And people in the nearby neighborhoods are in great demand for cheap fast food. Most of them work in ports and factories. Both husband and wife are very busy and come home late and tired. They have to use coal, wood or Electricity, as long as the price is right and the food source is stable, I think it should be able to sell well...

"The hot pot restaurant will also consider it later. It will be placed on the second floor, and the scale will not be too large...

"We also plan to build a bathroom on the first floor, the simplest public bathroom. There are many low-level citizens in the surrounding blocks, and they are all eager to take a bath. There is no independent bathroom in the place where they live, and they can only be used in a public bathroom. Place to wash, very inconvenient…

"Several nearby bathrooms are constantly without water and are almost running out of water, and this building never stops..."

As she spoke, a slight smile appeared on Su Na's face.

Although Li Qiong, Qin Xiaozhen and others already knew about this plan, they still listened with great anticipation, as if just listening to it would make them very happy.

Long Yuehong was stunned for a moment, unable to believe that this was a plan that a group of ex-slaves who did not understand Honghe language and did not understand Primal City could formulate.

This analysis is too detailed, right

Noticing the change in his eyes, Su Na said a little embarrassedly:

"For the past two days, we have been using the translator to speak to the servants and ask them questions. They actually know a lot."

Bai Chen nodded lightly and said:

"Well done."

She turned to some of her suggestions, such as opening a grain store, and trying to cooperate with some merchants in the port after a certain accumulation.

Finally, she emphasized:

"Remember to exercise and practice marksmanship."

"Yeah!" Suna and the others nodded heavily.

After leaving the wolf's den, going down to the first floor, and returning to the street, Long Yuehong looked back at the seventh and eighth floors where Su Na and the others lived, and said with emotion:

"They're so motivated, they know the good and the bad, and they know what to do and what not to do."

Bai Chen looked at the jeep not far away and said:

"In the beginning, I always had good expectations for the future. When there are more difficulties and setbacks, I hope they can still remember their mood and thoughts today."

On the dusty soil, there are actually a few, very few, who can insist on themselves.

Long Yuehong fell silent, not knowing what to say, Genova said:

"In Tarnan, there are actually many people who can at least not hurt others."

"That's a robot guard watching." Bai Chen smiled and glanced at Long Yuehong.

This was blackmailed by the locals.

While talking, they returned to the jeep.

At this moment, several security guards in gray-blue uniforms rushed over from the corner of the street with pistols.

After seeing Long Yuehong and others, the chubby man in the lead slowed down and asked:

"Have you ever seen someone go by

"Wearing a thin black coat, brown hair, green eyes, and wearing a scarf like you, but covering your mouth."

He pointed to Bai Chen.

Bai Chen pulled the elegant thin scarf around his neck and answered calmly:

"No, we just came out of the building."

The chubby man didn't ask any more questions, he led his subordinates and started running again.

"That guy did something wrong?" Long Yuehong muttered while looking at the backs of the security guards.

"Maybe." Bai Chen opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.

Golden Apple District, Citizen Street, No. 18, General Phocas' residence.

Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao received at least three temporary inspections on the way in their gray off-road vehicles. Fortunately, they did not bring military exoskeleton devices or heavy weapons, and they acted like the most peaceful relics. hunter.

"Who are you two looking for?" The guard at the door stopped them.

Phocas is the most senior and most famous general in the "First City". When Aure died and the "First City" split, he firmly stood on the side of the Senate, commanding the army to suppress the rebellion, and then more. The second Qing eradicated the "unintentional", aberrant creatures and other forces, and opened up a number of settlements for the first city.

He is now in his fifties, and has passed the age of prosperous and prosperous. He belongs to the kind of half-footed in the coffin on the dust. He has gradually faded out of the list of legion commanders, and is only responsible for part of the city defense army. Of course, he also entered senate.

Facing the guard's questioning, Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"We made an appointment with the general to discuss the cooperation of a batch of books."

After asking for instructions, the guards moved out of the way, and Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian, led by the housekeeper, entered Fucas' study all the way.

Fokas's home is covered with marble, and different statues are erected on the handrails of the stairs. The walls are decorated with exquisite frescoes, which look luxurious.

The same is true of his study, with rows of books bathed in golden sunlight.

Seeing Fukas's first glance, a word immediately appeared in Jiang Baimian's mind:

"lion"!

Regardless of his appearance or his aura, this general is like a lion staring at his prey.

However, probably because of his age, his khaki hair is quite sparse, which makes him inexplicably a little more comical.

Wearing a straight general's uniform and standing by the window, Fucas' yellow eyes moved slightly, glanced at Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao, and asked in a deep voice:

"You are the relic hunter team that discovered the whereabouts of 'Anti-Intellectualism'?"

Shang Jianyao nodded first:

"Yes, they also sponsored us 50 ore."

Phocas frowned, puzzled.
