Unrestrained technology is dangerous, even more dangerous than zombies and alien species. On this planet surrounded by radioactive dust, Jiang Chen had reason to believe that deformed seeds could not only germinate in Wanghai City.
Mutants, cannibals, predators, zombies, alien species, unfettered artificial intelligence...
In the final analysis, these monsters are the product of excessive expansion of technology and abnormal growth of civilization.
They should be corrected.
Wherever the NAC iron boots step on, all heretics will be eliminated!
This promotional slogan was printed on the gate of the Sixth District for all business and tourists entering and exiting the Sixth District to admire.
After the large-scale alien species eradication operation, the Sixth Block has become a place that survivors in Suzhou and Hangzhou Province, and even the entire Pan-Asian Huaxia Region, yearn for. Businessmen and wanderers have taken the legend and flag of NAC further. That powerful and stable force is trying to achieve great things that the world's unified government has failed to achieve -
Restore order.
"... They can't do it, not because they don't have the ability, but because they lack the courage to take responsibility and face reality. Think about it, would you rather face a world that is bombed and devastated, or would you rather arrive at A new world starts over? In fact, there is no difference between the two, but the latter is easier for people to accept." Sitting in the marshal's office in the Parliament Building in the 6th Street District, Jiang Chen pointed at the ashtray with the cigarette butt between his fingers and said to Zhao Chenwu, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, talked eloquently.
"A very novel point of view." Zhao Chenwu shrugged, picked up the tea cup in front of the table, took a sip, smashed it, and said with emotion, "Good tea. Speaking of which, Mr. Marshal invited me here just to hold a tea party. ?"
"Of course not," Jiang Chen smiled and leaned back on his chair, "You are the speaker of the parliament. I hope to send a signal to the parliament through you."
"What's the signal?" Zhao Chenwu put down the tea cup and sat upright for a moment.
"The situation in Wanghai City has stabilized, and NAC will not consider using foreign troops in the future. Now is a great time for the development of the Sixth District."
"In other words, military industry orders from NAC will decrease?" Zhao Chenwu's reaction to Jiang Chen's words was not very enthusiastic. After all, he has now completely withdrawn from the arms business and disposed of the loss-making arms factory as early as half a year ago>
"Of course, but that's not what I want to say." Jiang Chen paused. "I hope that you will use the influence you established while doing business outside the NAC area to collect pre-war technical documents, scientific research equipment, and high-precision instruments scattered outside Wanghai City. We will offer you a reasonable purchase price for the things you recycle. ."
For the vast majority of small and medium-sized survivor organizations in the wasteland, those technologies and equipment are worthless. After all, even if a village with only a few dozen people gets the design drawings of an electromagnetic gun, it will be difficult for them to build an electromagnetic gun without 3D printing equipment or production tools.
Many ignorant survivors even mixed those precious documents with discarded books and used them as fuel for the winter. Parts such as sensors and graphene circuit boards are removed from the quantum computer. Used on self-controlled sentry machine guns.
What Jiang Chen needs these merchants who have footprints all over the wasteland to do is to collect these "treasures" mixed with garbage. It is better for businessmen to do these things. After all, their strength will not arouse the vigilance of local survivor groups, and it is much easier to communicate with locals than NAC soldiers holding rifles.
"No problem, I will notify my colleagues and pay more attention to this aspect when doing business in other places... Should we only notify the members of the parliament? There are many chambers of commerce in the Sixth Block doing business outside the province, such as those A caravan from Hangzhou." Zhao Chenwu asked.
"There is no need to inform them. The caravans in Hangzhou are outsiders. As for those small chambers of commerce, they are too numerous to control and can easily act as spoilers." Jiang Chen shook his head. "This task is very important. NAC needs these technologies to rebuild this ruins, so I leave it to you."
"Thank you for your trust. I will definitely fulfill my mission." Zhao Chenwu nodded slightly. Then he raised his head and asked with a smile, "What specific technologies are they? In other words, which technologies is NAC willing to offer a high price for?"
Profit is the focus of businessmen. How many credits NAC is willing to pay for this determines the enthusiasm of these businessmen for technology recycling work. at this point. Of course Jiang Chen wouldn't know this.
"More advanced 3D printing equipment or technical documents, civilian-level or experimental-level quantum computers, and all equipment and papers on aerospace technology. At this stage, these technologies are the focus of our recycling. As for other technologies, we will also use them based on their Practical value, I will pay you reasonable remuneration." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Zhao Chenwu nodded.
"Understood, is that all?"
"One more thing, I heard that your Zhao Group imported a batch of production drones from Wu City, right?" Jiang Chen asked.
"That's right, nothing about the 'Worker Ant Drone' can escape your eyes." Zhao Chenwu teased, "Is there any problem?"
"Is that thing useful?" Jiang Chen asked.
"It's very useful. It can be used to harvest crops, collect resin, and even replace workers in simple assembly line operations. In short, it is a very interesting gadget." Zhao Chenwu said.
As the per capita income in the Sixth District increases, except for slaves and refugees who are willing to engage in farming and planting industries, most survivors would rather "pick up garbage" than do these low-paying farm jobs. In order to solve the labor shortage on the farm, Zhao Chenwu simply ordered a batch of "worker ant" drones from Wu City to replace manual workers in production.
"Can you provide us with a few samples? Of course, we will pay." Jiang Chen said.
"No problem. That thing actually doesn't cost much, I can give you a few without any problem." Zhao Chenwu said generously. "If you successfully analyze their technology, remember to sell us some."
"Thank you very much." Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Speaking of which, what is the strength of the survivors in Wu City?"
"Strength? How to put it... The survivor groups along the Yangtze River in the south are mostly farmers, and the same is true for Wu City. Located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River plains, the survivor groups are distributed around the fertile soil in the suburbs. Perhaps they inherited some of the In terms of pre-war production technology, their mechanical manufacturing capabilities were generally pretty good.
Similar to Wanghai City two years ago, the local survivors were also invaded by mutants and predators, so the population density has not been high. The economy mainly relies on exporting agricultural products such as shell valleys, Kamu resin, and mutant fruits. They occasionally sell their handmade robots and drones to passing merchants. Any questions? " Zhao Chenwu asked.
"Nothing, just asking casually. By the way, I'll give you another task." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Oh?" Zhao Chenwu looked at Jiang Chen.
"When you are doing business, remember to pay more attention to the information about local survivor forces. Such as population, economic status, military strength, and settlement distribution."
"Didn't you say that NAC has no plans for military operations recently?" Zhao Chenwu asked.
"Intelligence collection does not necessarily need to be done when there is a military operation." Jiang Chen crossed his fingers on his knees and said with a smile, "In peacetime, we can first study where to fight." (.)
