readx(); "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Finally, Jiang Chen held Lin Chaoen's hand.
As Lin Chaoen said, if mutants pass through Qingpu District, there is a high probability that they will break out into a war. Betting on the probability that the mutants will not discover the fish bone base is as unreliable as opening the sheepfold and praying that the passing wolves will not attack.
In the eyes of mutants, every "old human" is a stubborn coward, and every human regards these self-proclaimed "new humans" as ugly eunuchs. From the beginning, there was no possibility of peace talks between humans and mutants.
Lin Chaoen also showed his sincerity. The two first exchanged the communication channels of their respective bases. If there was any abnormal movement among the mutants in No. 7, the Rebel Alliance would notify the Fishbone Base as soon as possible. At the same time, the two sides signed a defensive alliance treaty against mutants. Once the large mutant army begins to advance towards Wanghai City, both parties will jointly send troops to intercept.
for the common good.
After completing all this, Lin Chaoen immediately said goodbye and rushed back to Jia City to resume his duties. Jiang Chen stayed there for a while, and then a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Mutants. Damn it, why are you in trouble one after another?"
The development of military power must be accelerated.
But winter is approaching. Perhaps under the influence of the severe cold, the mutants will choose to march to Wanghai City in the next spring
Hopefully the snow will be heavy enough.
Jiang Chen shook his head and walked towards the prosthetic leg boutique. I happened to run into Zhou Guoping who was discussing something with the decoration workers at the door.
Zhou Guoping, who noticed that the boss was coming, immediately sent the decoration worker away and greeted him in a flattering manner: "Hey, boss, what's the matter?"
After inviting Zhou Guoping into the house, Jiang Chen closed the door without any nonsense and asked straight to the point: "What should I do if I want to buy heavy weapons?"
Zhou Guoping was stunned, and then thought seriously for a moment.
"In Wanghai City, the Sixth Block can produce it. However, there is a sales restriction treaty between the ten-member committee that controls the heavy weapons factory, which prohibits the heavy weapons produced in the Sixth Block from flowing to the market. Except for the Sixth Block, the one in the north The Beer Bottle Company is an expert in the production of heavy weapons, and there is no problem with sales restrictions. However, they are a bit far away from here. Moreover, their production capacity is not high, and they do not have representatives stationed in the Sixth District to receive orders."
"What about outside Wanghai City?"
"There is a military factory in Su City that produces heavy weapons, but because of the high price, few people can afford it. I haven't seen them here for a while." Zhou Guoping said after hesitating for a moment.
"Expensive? How expensive can it be?"
"It's very expensive." Zhou Guoping smiled bitterly, "They only sell big ones. As far as I know, for example, the 85mm tank gun costs about 7,000 sub-crystals. In addition, as long as you can afford it, they even sell tanks. ."
Are all tanks for sale? Hearing this, Jiang Chen's eyes lit up.
"Please keep an eye out for me. If they come, notify me as soon as possible. They will go back to the Fish Bone Base in a while. From now on, I will leave the matters here to you." Jiang Chen patted his shoulder and spoke in an easy-going tone. He encouraged me, "Do a good job, I'm optimistic about you."
Regardless of how the overjoyed Zhou Guoping was nodding and flattering behind him, Jiang Chen left a few hundred crystals in the store as start-up capital, turned around and left the prosthetic leg boutique. It's already early October, and the plans in this world are about to begin. For this reason, he needed to go back quickly and make some preparations.
... ...
After leaving the Sixth District, Jiang Chen went to the sewer entrance guarded by the Zhao Group.
Speaking of which, as the economic ties between the Fish Bone Base and the Zhao Group deepen. This sewer is also stained with light. Not only were the moss and stains on the road cleared, the intricate forked roads were also sealed with composite door panels, and voice-activated cold light lamps were installed in the corners.
After taking the elevator back to the surface, the soldier guarding the elevator saluted immediately after seeing him. After nodding. Jiang Chen walked along the enclosed cement corridor and walked into the Fish Bone Base.
At the shooting range outside the wall, Jiang Chen found Zhao Gang.
"How do you feel?" Looking at Zhao Gang, Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
"Not bad." Zhao Gang nodded. Since experiencing that incident, this man has changed from the cheerful person to the taciturn person he is now.
"Ten out of ten shots, good guy. This is not enough." Cheng Weiguo walked up with a rifle and said with a smile.
Glancing at Zhao Gang in surprise, Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction.
"I'll give you a task."
"Yes." Zhao Gang nodded and agreed without asking what the mission was.
Jiang Chen took out the holographic computer pen from his pocket and clicked on the location of No. 7.
"I need you to go to No. 7 and bring back information about the mutants. Their gathering location, combat power, number of people... In short, the more detailed the better."
As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. For those mutants entrenched in No. 7, the Fishbone Base is still in a state of ignorance. But just from the last firefight, it can be seen that the mutants cannot be underestimated in terms of armor and firepower.
In addition, Jiang Chen did not completely believe Lin Chaoen's words. It is far more reliable to send someone to check it out yourself than to listen to what others say.
"Understood. When should I leave?"
"Tomorrow, you prepare today. If you need any equipment, just tell Cheng Weiguo and get it directly from the arsenal."
"Ten nutrient mixtures and this rifle are enough." Zhao Gang shook his head, "If we are just conducting reconnaissance, there is little chance of a firefight."
Although there are things like compressed biscuits in the base, in terms of convenience, they are definitely far inferior to the nutritional mixture that can replenish water and satisfy hunger.
"That's true. I'll leave it to you. Go and come back quickly." Jiang Chen patted his shoulder and said solemnly.
"Yes." As Jiang Chen expected, he just nodded without any objection to the task.
... ...
Back at the villa, Jiang Chen happened to bump into Lin Ling coming out of the bathroom humming a tune.
Seeing her happy look, he couldn't help but joke.
"Won't water get into the cyborg's bath?"
Hearing this, Lin Ling raised her eyebrows and was about to retort, but she thought that she was being controlled by others at the moment, so she couldn't help but froze there.
Jiang Chen was also a little surprised to see that she didn't have a venomous tongue.
"By the way, how did you complete the task assigned to you?"
"Humph, do you think doing scientific research means masturbating on a plane? Just masturbate and come out?" In the end, Lin Ling still couldn't stand the temptation of the venomous tongue.
Jiang Chen looked at her with a strange expression. He really couldn't relate such vulgar words to a girl with an elf-like appearance.
"Although I have never done scientific research, have you ever flown a plane?"
Lin Ling's face turned red, she cursed inwardly, "You're so stupid," she buried her head and ran away quickly.
It's so fucking fun to play with this chick.
Looking at Lin Ling's embarrassed look. Jiang Chen smiled evilly.
But business matters.
Shaking his head, Jiang Chen put Lin Ling's matter aside and went to the second floor to find Sun Jiao.
"Are you back?" After seeing Jiang Chen, Sun Jiao's eyes lit up and she put down what she was holding. The corner of his mouth curled up and he came forward happily.
"Yes." Jiang Chen hugged the enthusiastic Sun Jiao and asked with a smile, "How is the bank matter going?"
"The gold has been pulled back, estimated to be 15 tons. The markings have been polished off and are now piled in the swimming pool." Sun Jiao looked at Jiang Chen with a smile and said affectionately.
"Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Chen reached out and stroked Sun Jiao's silky hair, staring into Sun Jiao's eyes, Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Of course, I'm really exhausted." He stretched out unpreparedly. Sun Jiao listened to the soft swallowing sound with satisfaction, looked at Jiang Chen with a smirk, and then said, "How are you going to reward me?"
"Ahem, let's talk about it tonight." Jiang Chen touched his nose and looked away embarrassedly.
But at this moment, he suddenly found something strange beside the bed.
Is that... a rag
"Huh? What is that?" Jiang Chen stretched his neck and asked curiously looking at the weird thing.
Sun Jiao's face turned red and she quickly ran to the bed, stuffing the unknown object under the quilt and hiding it.
"That one? Which one?" His eyes began to wander. Sun Jiao rarely pretended to be stupid.
So curious!
Unable to restrain his curiosity, Jiang Chen asked enthusiastically.
"It's the one you hid..."
"No way! What am I hiding?" Sun Jiao raised her eyebrows and said viciously.
"No, no, no, I saw it with my own eyes."
"Illusion! It must be your illusion!" He put on a posture of denying it. Sun Jiao blushed and pushed Jiang Chen out of the door, who was trying to find out what was going on, and then slammed the door.
"call-"
Sun Jiao let out a sigh of relief as she sat back on the bed.
My heart is beating so fast.
"Ah, it's so embarrassing, it doesn't look like me!"
Stretching out her hands and patting her red face, Sun Jiao threw herself on the bed and reached out to grab the quilt. Like an ostrich, it wraps itself in cotton wool.
The treasure hidden under the quilt was exposed. It was a wrinkled and yellowed magazine. Judging from the publication date, it should have been printed before the war.
"How to Capture Your Boyfriend's Heart—Knit a Scarf for Him in the Cold Winter"
[Appendix: Simple and easy-to-understand scarf knitting skills]
Sun Jiao, who was born in a shelter, didn't understand what love was. When she was wandering in the wasteland, she had never been as enamored with anyone as she was now. She picked up this magazine from the newspaper column in the bank lobby. Although she didn't understand what the scarf was at first, her attention was attracted by the big words in front of the title.
Are scarves really so magical? Sun Jiao didn't quite understand.
But since Jiang Chen comes from before the war, it will definitely work for him.
She believed so firmly.
... ...
Standing by the swimming pool, Jiang Chen looked down at the dazzling gold. In the last days, this gold will be worth less than clay.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Chen sank his consciousness into the storage space.
Compared to the initial time, the area of storage space seems to have expanded a lot. From the original size of 1 cubic meter, it has expanded to about 5 cubic meters today. However, Jiang Chen is still at a loss as to how this jump bracelet is upgraded. Repeatedly charging and consuming energy seems to be of some use, but the usefulness is not very obvious.
The last overload seemed to have significantly increased the size of the storage space, but Jiang Chen didn't dare to do such a dangerous thing again. If it fails, it will not be overloaded, but will directly "burn" the jump bracelet, which would be ridiculous.
After putting the gold into the storage space, Jiang Chen was about to return to modern times, but then he suddenly remembered the "agreement" he made with Sun Jiao, and couldn't help but raise a smirk on his lips.
Let's go back tomorrow morning. (.)
