A night of silence.
Su Ziyu didn't actually fall asleep much. He basically just slept there with his eyes closed.
On the contrary, Jiese in the next room was sleeping very deeply, and loud snores could be heard even across the corridor. Before dawn, there were light footsteps outside. Su Ziyu didn't need to open his eyes to know that it must be the white woman who was getting up. Regarding her relationship with Jiese, Su Ziyu didn't ask much. Having a place to live in the wasteland and having food to eat on weekdays was already pretty good.
This woman has such severe radiation distortion that there are probably very few people willing to take her in.
Su Ziyu got up, dressed and went out.
"I'm going out for a walk." He said hello to the woman who was making something to eat in the kitchen. She should be cooking mashed potatoes.
"Yeah." The woman was a little silent, lowered her head and said, "I will tell him when he gets up."
He can actually speak Chinese.
Su Ziyu smiled, turned and left. When he went out, he found that there was still incense burning in front of the Gatling Bodhisattva. It must have been lit by someone else. Unexpectedly, there were actually believers worshiping this Buddha statue.
It's foggy outside.
It looks a bit gray.
Su Ziyu had only taken a few steps when he smelled a strong smell of mutton soup. This smell reminded him of a mutton noodle shop in the market when he was studying, and he felt a little hungry for a while. He walked directly following the smell, and soon saw a small facade. There was a three-meter-high rusty iron plate standing at the door, and two men carrying guns sat next to it. Basically, the people here were All have Chinese faces.
The mutton is stewed in the pot, and the rich flavor comes from here.
"Lao Guo, please have two portions of mutton. And some noodles." A bearded Chinese man sat down and said.
There was a young woman next to her, holding a two or three-year-old child in her arms. The child's exposed arms were slightly bent unnaturally, and she was looking at the mutton in the pot with wide eyes.
Su Ziyu also sat down.
This smell really reminded him of his distant hometown. As soon as he sat down, he saw the sheep's head thrown in the corner not far away. It was two sheep's heads connected together. Su Ziyu's expression was slightly He was stunned for a moment, but did not stand up. Many domestic animals in the Wasteland Era have mutated. Two-headed sheep and two-headed deer are very common animals. Even those raised in captivity will have some mutations.
"What do you want?" The boss is a middle-aged man with a pistol on his waist.
Su Ziyu looked at it and said, "Let's have some mutton soup."
"Some noodles, too."
The consumption of this mutton restaurant should be quite high, because there are basically no poor people at the bottom. Most of the people who come here are dressed as scavengers. To put it simply, they look very tough and have guns on their bodies. They are people outside working hard to make a living.
Soon a bowl of mutton soup was served.
—“The radiation contamination is extremely low.”
Su Ziyu glanced at the mechanical watch in his hand and took a sip of the mutton soup. It was indeed the taste he remembered, but it lacked a lot of spices and had a slightly fishy smell.
"How much?" Su Ziyu ate a little and stood up.
The boss came over, smiled and said: "Two bottle caps."
Not expensive, but not cheap either.
In this day and age, a bowl of mutton soup like this should be considered a luxury item.
After Su Ziyu paid the bill, he turned and left. When he went out, he saw three more familiar people. The leading man was followed by two gunmen, who were knocking on doors to collect money.
People from the water merchant group.
The Chinese people living here looked a little angry but dared not speak, but in the end they took out their money one by one. We can save money in other places, but no one dares to save money on clean water sources.
When I returned home, I was already rebooting.
He was cursing and saying something, and some unfamiliar faces appeared next to him.
"Back?" Jiese stood up and introduced: "This is Miyamoto Wu, this is Zhao Ang, and this is Jin Xin."
"They're raven hunters, too."
"I just came back yesterday. After hearing about you, I came over early in the morning to visit."
The other two should be Chinese.
However, a young man holding a samurai sword looked like a Fuso. Asians had similar faces, and there were also some Fuso people living in the Chinese district.
"Hello." Takeshi Miyamoto came to Su Ziyu and bowed, then stretched out his hand and said, "I am Takeshi Miyamoto, please give me your advice."
A silver-white metal arm.
Miyamoto Takeshi has obviously undergone relatively high-end mechanical modifications. His right hand is a mechanical prosthesis, and his left hand is a normal human hand. There is a faint light on his chest, which seems to have undergone some modifications.
"Hello." Su Ziyu smiled and shook his hand.
The other two Chinese also said hello. They seemed to be people who often lived on the tip of a knife. They carried daggers, grenades, firearms, etc. with them.
"I saw the Death Claw's head. Your sword skills must be amazing!" Takeshi Miyamoto bowed and said, "If you have time, please give me some advice."
Huh
I can't tell that he is really a master of cold weapons. I didn't expect that there would be people in the wasteland who would concentrate on training their cold weapon abilities.
"Let's talk about it when we have time." Su Ziyu said with a smile.
Jie Se then said, "Let's go in and talk. It's not very convenient outside."
A group of people entered the house.
Jie Se looked at the others, and then said to Su Ziyu: "They were originally planning to hunt the Mire Crab Queen, but because the monster was a bit difficult to deal with, they gave up for the time being."
"I came here to cooperate with you."
"They are willing to give you 70% of the bounty from the Mire Crab Queen."
Seventy percent
Then didn’t they work for me for free
Su Ziyu's expression was a little confused. He glanced at the others and said, "Give me 70%? Is this all you want?"
Hearing Su Ziyu's words, the others looked at each other for a moment. After Jie Se nodded slightly, the young man named Zhao Ang stood up and said: "To be honest. We want to deal with the Mire Crab Queen, but actually it's just for That’s where the water comes from.”
Water source
Su Ziyu seemed to have thought of something and quietly waited for their next words.
"Let me tell you the truth." Jiese stood up smoking a cigarette, looking at Su Ziyu in front of him and said: "You are also Chinese, we still trust you."
"Chinatown is willing to give us some support."
"This hunting mission was actually secretly entrusted by our Chinese community. As long as we capture that water source, Chinatown will be willing to provide us with a set of water purification equipment. Then we can open a water purification plant there. "
"As long as clean water is produced, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell it."
"If you are willing to join us, we can also give you some shares."
Water plant
Opening a water plant in this era is indeed a very profitable business.
After Su Ziyu pondered for a moment, he suddenly asked: "If you want to open a water plant? Won't those water business groups make things difficult for you?"
Hearing Su Ziyu's words, an inexplicable smile appeared on Jiese's face, and he said softly: "You may have been wandering outside for too long. You are a bit underestimating the strength of us Chinese."
"In this area."
"As long as the water plant can be established, we can easily recruit thousands of people."
"Those water merchants may not dare to fight us for a little profit."
"Besides."
"The Chinatown gathering place is the largest Chinese camp in the entire Americas. Even the plutocratic forces dare not turn against us directly."
"Do you know Beidou?"
Beidou
Su Ziyu looked up at Jie Se in front of him in confusion.
Jiese smiled widely and said, "A huge industrial city has been rebuilt in China."
"That's Beidou."
"Chinatown has already contacted Beidou. The technology of exoskeleton power armor was provided to them by Beidou."
Unexpectedly, I heard news about China in this world here.
"I don't need the shares." Su Ziyu thought for a moment and said, "If you want to open a water plant, I can help you get rid of those mire crabs."
When he heard that Su Ziyu didn't want the shares, Jiese didn't force him and nodded directly: "Okay. Let's set off next year."
next year
By the way, today is the Chinese New Year.
Su Ziyu was stunned for a moment, and then heard a burst of firecrackers outside, mixed with a little gunfire. He couldn't help but look up at Jiese, but saw him smiling and saying, "It's okay. Some naughty kids are fooling around. , just give him a beating."
He gestured to Zhao Ang next to him, and then the man walked out with a cold face.
There are a lot more people in the entire Chinese area.
Several convoys came back from outside. They should all be Chinese scavengers. Some tough men with guns returned. Many of them had wives and children waiting to greet them at the door. The probability of marriage in the Chinese community is higher than in other places, and the proportion of babies born is also higher. However, due to the radiation pollution of this era, the probability of babies surviving is not too high.
Su Ziyu went out to take a look and found that quitting sex was not a boast. It should be said that it was very simple to draw a team of thousands of people from the entire Chinese area.
It depends on whether he is willing to share the profits and convenience with these compatriots.
"Are you the wilderness hunter they call you?" A burly man came over and handed a cigarette: "My name is Qin Yu. I will take care of the scavengers here for the time being."
Su Ziyu smiled and shook his head, and asked casually: "How was the harvest?"
"So-so." Qin Yu lit a cigarette by himself, smiled at a middle-aged woman not far away, then squatted down and picked up a little girl about six or seven years old, and directly used He pinched out the cigarette butt with his fingers and said, "Basically all the easy-to-find supplies nearby have been taken away a long time ago. Otherwise, there are some dangerous monsters."
"Now we can only drive the convoy further, and sometimes we have to enter areas where nuclear explosions have occurred."
"There are a lot of corpses in those places."
"Sometimes, we encounter mutants."
Mutant
Su Ziyu soon remembered that he had heard of them. It was said that they were the transformed products of super soldiers from the old world. After the nuclear explosion, they all turned into inhuman butcher killers.
Qin Yu carefully touched his daughter's little face with his robotic arm, put her down, and whispered: "We will also help on the day we deal with the mire crabs."
"Tell us what weapons you need."
"I'll find a way to do it."
Su Ziyu looked at him and asked casually: "Can the little fat man get it?"
Qin Yu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"You really know how to joke." He smiled, patted Su Ziyu on the shoulder and said, "Did you get that thing casually?"
"There might be a few over there at the Chinatown campground."
"We ordinary people definitely have no way to get it."
"Besides."
"You've probably never seen anyone use a Fatty micro-nuclear bomb, right? That guy's range isn't as big as the explosion range. Using it is simply suicide."
"If you have any tough monsters to deal with."
"I can think of a way to get you an electromagnetic rifle."
"certainly."
"The price is not cheap."
This guy is not simple.
He actually knew that the explosion range of Little Fatty's miniature nuclear bomb was larger than its firing range. The other party probably thought he was trying to blow up some monster with the nuclear bomb.
Electromagnetic rifle
Su Ziyu had seen the scrapped product of this thing and asked curiously: "How powerful is it?"
"Not sure." Qin Yu shook his head honestly and said, "It is said to be very big. There is no need to change the ammunition. One energy magazine can fire two to three hundred rounds of bullets."
“I don’t know where the black technology was developed.”
Su Ziyu was a little interested.
He smiled and said: "Introduce him to me when you have time. I happen to be short of a good weapon."
"No problem." Qin Yu nodded.
The scavengers soon went home.
Then some people got together to drink and brag. On the other side, there were young people playing with lion heads and making a dragon out of paper. It looked a little ugly, but the meaning was still there.
Most of the scavengers in the Chinese District have undergone mechanical transformation.
Not everyone had to undergo modifications due to radiation distortion. Some normal people also took the initiative to save money and modify some mechanical prostheses because they had to face dangers. Su Ziyu can only see young people under the age of twenty-five here, which is relatively normal. Those over the age of twenty-five have basically replaced some parts.
at the same time.
In a quiet hotel.
A young man climbed in through the window quite vigorously. Then he glanced at his companion next to him and said in a low voice: "I saw those bionic people."
"How many?" the man standing by the door asked in a deep voice.
"There are three people." The young man closed the window and whispered: "There should be more than that. There may be some of their people nearby."
"How about it?"
"Did the branch get a message back? Who is that person?"
The man by the door threw a piece of fax paper over and said with a serious expression: "Read it yourself."
The young man reached out and took it.
The top is a photo, which is exactly what Su Ziyu looks like. Below is some recorded information.
"Legendary warrior?"
"Is this such an exaggeration? Killed a radiation giant with cold weapons? Killed a super aberration with a sniper?"
"Is this guy Superman?"
"etc!"
"This information is from twelve years ago!"
The young man raised his head in shock and murmured: "Oh my god! This guy doesn't look old at all!"
… … …
The backend has been revised. They are all a bit incapable of doing it.
