I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 34: inner circle

Views:

"Please show me your ID, sir." It was still the usual question.

Under the towering concrete walls are reinforced iron doors. The protection of the inner circle was more than one level higher than that of the outer circle, and Jiang Chen was also lucky enough to witness the elegance of this city within a city.

After paying one subcrystal point and placing all his weapons at the custody point, Jiang Chen was released by the checkpoint.

At the door is a spider tank with a triangular barrel, and its blocky limbs with tracks are quite sci-fi. The patrols that pass by from time to time are also equipped with elite troops, with black carbon nano armor and streamlined rifles. According to Sun Jiao, the soldiers in the inner circle are the core force of Block 6, and are mostly composed of private soldiers of the "Committee of Ten", the actual controller of Block 6. As for the militiamen in the outer circle, although their equipment is acceptable, they belong to the public property of the Sixth District, and their nature is completely different.

Jiang Chen secretly smacked his lips while considering whether to buy a few pieces of equipment like this and go back, while walking towards the target hotel.

Along the way, Jiang Chen also saw a lot of pedestrians. It is said that the people who can live in the inner circle are not only the senior technicians of the Sixth District, but also the wealthy mercenary group owners, or the wealthy investors who have purchased properties in the Sixth District. In short, this is the so-called wealthy area.

It is worth mentioning here that the mercenary group stationed in the Sixth Block is different from the half-soldier, half-bandit groups wandering in the wasteland. Most of them undertake defense tasks together with the Sixth Block militia, and then obtain them through defense agreements. Commission, and occasionally sent out to perform special tasks, or serve as escorts for caravans. There is no need to worry about being bitten by a dog when hiring a mercenary group registered in the Sixth District. After all, the insurance money paid is not in vain. Once a guard turns into a robber, not only the guarantors of the mercenary group living in the inner circle will face imprisonment, but the Sixth District will also send armed forces to eliminate the violators.

[Paradise Island Hotel will make you feel at home when you are tired physically and mentally... ]

At least that's what the slogan says.

Jiang Chen walked into this hotel, which was obviously converted from a pre-war mansion. Since we are here to discuss business, we cannot let others look down upon us, and we must show off our style. Jiang Chen paid the room fee for 5 days in advance without any hesitation, totaling 50 Yajing. The owner of the hotel immediately showed his attitude towards God and respectfully sent Jiang Chen to his room. People who can afford to stay in this kind of hotel are either rich or noble. No matter who they are, they are the targets of the hotel owners.

Moreover, such expensive hotels are usually unoccupied.

If there are people living there, they are usually big businessmen or rich people from other large survivor bases or even from outside Wanghai City. According to the gossip Sun Jiao got, staying in this kind of hotel itself is an extremely eye-catching thing.

And Jiang Chen just wants to attract attention.

Without attracting attention, who among his mother would come to him to discuss business

As for whether trouble will come to your door? Jiang Chen wasn't too worried about this, because the neutrality of the Sixth District had been a tradition that had lasted for more than ten years. To develop this place to this point is definitely not something that short-sighted people can do by killing the goose that lays the goose to lay the eggs.

On this point, I have to praise the system of the Sixth District. The "Committee of Ten" composed of ten major capitalists manages this safe zone of free trade. The mutual checks and balances between forces also ensure that the established rules and regulations are strictly enforced. No one is willing to be the first The person who broke the rules. It's okay to talk about business, but you can't kill your trading partners or affect your neighbor's business.

Of course, as for things like privacy, no one cares about it.

Just as Jiang Chen expected, as soon as he stepped into the room, the hotel manager reported the information about this generous guest to his boss behind the scenes.

Identity: Jiang Chen, agent of a fish bone and grain products production company.

Check-in period: July 9-14.

]

Jiang Chen's check-in information was quickly placed on someone's desk.

"Fish bone grain product production company? Jiang Chen? Interesting." A middle-aged man with a shaved head leaned on the boss's chair, with a pair of sharp eyes like an eagle under his thick eyebrows.

"Does the boss need to contact him?" The female secretary wearing professional attire next to her pushed her eyes on the bridge of her nose. As Zhao Chenwu's personal secretary, she is not only his right-hand man at work, but also serves as his bodyguard when he goes out, and occasionally helps him solve his physical needs in life.

Zhao Chenwu, one of the members of the ten-member committee. He controls the private armed forces that occupy 13% of the military strength in the inner circle of the Sixth Block. He is also the owner of two arms factories and a pharmaceutical factory, and also owns many real estate properties in the inner circle. Another identity is the president of the Zhao Group, which is famous in the Sixth District.

"No rush, let's take a look first." Zhao Chenwu showed a playful smile on his face. He was actually a little unsure about this young man at this moment.

Grain products company? Where else in this wasteland is there land that can be cultivated? Even with soilless cultivation, the plants grown under the influence of radiation will grow in strange shapes or even be poisonous. Of course there are organic plantations like this in Block 6, but most of the fruits and vegetables they produce are inedible, and the remaining half are mostly crooked melons and split dates, so don’t expect them to taste any better. It is no exaggeration to say that if you plant a watermelon, you might actually grow a bean.

Of course, I heard that in some places outside Wanghai City, there is technology that can be used to plant in wasteland, but it is very rare and the cost is high. Like a simulated biosphere? I have only heard of these technologies. Although technology was advanced before the war, now... everyone's technology trees are all crooked.

As the majority shareholder of the Paradise Island Hotel, he has met many agents who came to negotiate business with the Sixth District. But this is the first time I heard about a grain product company

Just kidding, will there be a shortage of mutant cow meat in the Sixth District? It’s just that most people can’t afford it.

Thinking of this, Zhao Chenwu shook his head and put the information aside.

Looking at his watch, Zhao Chenwu felt a little hungry, so he asked his secretary, "Is lunch ready?"

"Yes, my boss. Just to confirm again, is today's lunch still curry chicken nuggets?" the secretary replied in a very standardized tone.

Seeing Zhao Chenwu nodded, the female secretary turned around and left the room, and returned shortly after with a plate of hot curry chicken rice bowl.

The unique aroma of curry caused Zhao Chenwu's salivary glands to secrete rapidly. He couldn't help but move his fingers, picked up his chopsticks and started eating without any image. Seeing the boss eating so deliciously, the female secretary standing aside couldn't help but swallow, but she knew it was not her fault.

Just a few mouthfuls of curry chicken nuggets are worth 20 Asia Crystals! The price is equivalent to a two-night stay at the Paradise Island Hotel.

This is not the key, the main thing is that there is a price but no market!

Some time ago, the exchange in the outer circle purchased 20 boxes of these cans and sold them to the upper class in the inner circle at a price of 60 sub-crystals per box. Zhao Chenwu only bought one by virtue of his status as a ten-member committee. Fortunately, there was no auction, otherwise the price might have gone up.

There was just such a can, and Zhao Chenwu divided it into three portions to eat in a shabby manner.

Zhao Chenwu also investigated the whereabouts of the man selling cans, but he heard that the two people were targeted by an organization called the Gray Gu Mercenary Group as soon as they left the house. No one knew whether they were alive or dead. When he learned the news, Yang Chenwu was so angry that he slapped the table and greeted all the eighteen generations of the ancestors of the Gray Gu mercenary group. He almost sent his private soldiers to teach those idiots a lesson. However, due to his identity, Yang Chenwu did not take action in the end. After all, although he was targeting the person from inside, he did it from outside, so it did not break the rules. If he made a move, he would really break the rules.

So, with the last bit of "treasure" in his stomach, Zhao Chenwu smacked his mouth, shook his head and forgot about the delicious curry chicken nuggets. Although I am curious about the taste of the canned braised beef bought by my old friend Boss Ding, I must have eaten it all long ago.

What's more, after all, he is also a person who does big things, and always thinking about eating is not an issue.

He took a stack of documents from his desk. Some issues regarding the company's operations still required him to review them in person.

At this moment, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of the report with check-in information, and suddenly an inexplicable sense of déjà vu came to his mind.

Huh... why does the name Jiang Chen look so familiar

I seem to have seen it somewhere. Where is it? ...

If Jiang Chen knew that the cans he sold to the Outer Circle Exchange were carefully divided into three portions and eaten by the boss of the Sixth Street District, I wonder if he would die laughing.

All in all, Jiang Chen was living quite comfortably at the moment.

He was the only guest in the entire luxurious villa. Although the oppressive radiation clouds and deteriorated sunlight could not put people in a good mood for vacation, Jiang Chen was quite satisfied with some of the facilities of this villa.

For example, what kind of healing warehouse

When you lie down in it, you feel as comfortable as if your whole body is wrapped in jelly. Breathing the high-oxygen air delivered by the respirator and feeling the slippery touch all over his body, Jiang Chen felt that every pore in his body seemed to be relaxed.

Although the scenery here is not as beautiful as the Hilton Hotel in Sanya, it is better because of its high technology content! Sure enough, technology is a good thing, to hell with nature...

When Jiang Chen came out of the health store, he felt a chill in the pores all over his body. From a cleaning perspective, this effect is many times better than taking a bath. Not to mention dandruff, even bacteria-level dirt has been cleaned up by this thing.

At the same time, the culture fluid used vibration to precisely massage Jiang Chen's acupuncture points, which not only relieved fatigue, but was also beneficial to health.

This thing is a good thing. Do you want to buy one? Jiang Chen couldn't help touching his chin and thinking seriously. He really liked this thing.

Jiang Chen casually grabbed a bathrobe and put it on his body, and immediately ran to other facilities to experience it.

Playing table tennis with that robot was probably for the rich who were too full to exercise and had no chance to exercise. After Jiang Chen played for a while and found that he couldn't beat the robot, he dropped his racket and stopped playing. And Jiang Chen didn't have much interest in things like tennis.

What interested him the most was the holographic cinema.

Those modern 7D movies that are faked are simply weak!

Putting on his helmet and fixing his body on the soft reclining chair, Jiang Chen experienced an immersive experience. What shocked him was that at this moment, he was standing on the streets of New York City, feeling the night wind blowing in his face, watching a fierce battle between police and gangsters from the angle he expected. He can even experience the battle immersively from the perspective of the protagonist. It's just that although you can feel the whistling bullets and can turn on the pain through settings, you just can't control the protagonist's actions...

In a way, this is great!

Especially when watching romantic action movies... Ahem!

Jiang Chen really searched for it, but after all, these things couldn't be put on the stage, and it was unlikely that they would be released in theaters. If it were the end of the world, that might be fine, but of course these movies were all made before the war.

After having enough fun, Jiang Chen left the cinema where he was alone and prepared to go back to his room to rest.

But when he reached the door of the room, he suddenly found a pretty beauty standing at the door.

Seeing Jiang Chen walking towards her, the beautiful woman stepped forward to greet him, leaned over slightly and saluted.

"Number 410, distinguished guest, do you need service?"

That sweet smile, delicate face, and golden-proportioned figure are simply like a work of art. Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a little moved when he saw it, and immediately forgot Sun Jiao's warning.

Haha, why should a man worry about not having a wife? Ahem, Jiang Chen's philology is not good, and he vaguely feels that this sentence does not seem to be used here.

whatever! Not taking it home anyway.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but show a "gentleman" smile.

"Of course, I need your 'service'." Jiang Chen bitten hard on the word service.

The beautiful woman in uniform smiled slightly and bowed to Jiang Chen again.

"Number 410, at your service."

I always feel like there's something a little weird about it
