Chapter 889 What? You said this is a wasteland?
"The snow here has not only melted, but even grass has grown?"
Duan Xiong murmured, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.
The current gold standard for measuring whether a territory is strong or not is naturally how well it handles this snow disaster.
Along the way, he only saw the snow disappearing in the territories of powerful foreign races, and the land gradually recovered.
rare.
No, except for the Tianyuan territory, no one in the human territory could handle the snow disaster properly.
Most of them hastily cleared out a piece of their only living space, anxiously preparing to deal with the next disaster.
Where can this land be treated and restored to the point where it is enough for farming?
“It seems that this trip is right!”
Duan Xiong was slightly excited and involuntarily lowered his right hand on his waist.
He looked far into the distance and continued to look at the scenery passing by the window.
After a while, he had a better understanding of the military force of Tianyuan territory.
It can’t be called strong, but it shouldn’t be weak either.
Whether it is the tall tower or the bunker rising from the ground.
Although when facing some special alien races, such obvious defense facilities can easily be bypassed.
But as far as the current situation is concerned, it can still act as a good deterrent to get through the most difficult days.
“The town is five kilometers ahead.” Wen Da in the front row turned his head and warned.
Hearing this news, Duan Xiong quickly cheered up and looked at the direction of the vehicle at this time.
Sure enough, at the end, you can already see fireworks steaming up and hovering in the low sky.
If you listen carefully, you can still vaguely hear some faint noises.
However, while Duan Xiong was still observing, the other caravan members sitting in the car were not so calm.
"Boss, those are people from the Cumulus Chamber of Commerce, why are they here?"
"Holy shit, aren't these people only doing business in the eastern area?"
“Someone actually got there before us. Is there a spy among us who spread the news?”
"They are like this, have they finished the deal? Damn it!"
On the ground not far away, a group of lizard vehicles attracted everyone's attention.
After clearly identifying the sign hanging above the first car, it indeed represented the Cumulus Chamber of Commerce.
Duan Xiong's face changed slightly. Not only did he not feel any anger, but he felt a little uneasy.
Cumulus Chamber of Commerce is now ranked eleventh in the New World, far beyond what a small caravan like them can do.
After being traded by such a large caravan, it is hard to say whether the other party will appreciate what they have.
With this concern, Duan Xiong was a little anxious.
But soon, as Hope Town was completely revealed in front of his eyes, the anxiety he had not accumulated enough was suddenly relieved.
In front of him, what appeared at this time was the imaginary village gathering place.
The red and green prefabricated houses scattered neatly on the ground, and the gravel roads in the town with clear boundaries extending in all directions.
The tall and tall tree with lush green leaves planted inside the town is dotted in the public activity venue in the center of the town.
Other places are still hungry, but this town is striving for a better life!
Not only are there a large number of simple buildings that can only be seen in modern times, but there are also street lamps that appear every 20 meters in the town, as well as shops with signboards inside.
And this is not the most outrageous thing. Not far from the side of the town, there is an extremely modern building. It is four stories high, completely black, and looks very mysterious.
All of this combined is in sharp contrast to the other human gathering places seen along the way. It does not look like a town that should appear in the wasteland at all!
The car was still moving forward and slowly drove into the slightly "shabby" wooden gate of the town.
Duan Xiong got out of the car, and the ten younger brothers who were following him also got out of the car in time. The group of people stared blankly into the town.
I don’t know if it’s because I have walked a long way in the barren mountains and haven’t seen any human habitation for a long time.
Looking back and forth at this time, the prosperous scene in the town actually gives people a feeling of returning to modern times.
There was no trace of panic on the faces of the men and women who were carrying farm tools, holding materials, and pushing carts.
While walking back and forth, most people were talking and laughing, and their calmness gave people a sense of absurdity.
Among these aborigines, Duan Xiong also located the obvious foreign population at a glance.
"Jide Chamber of Commerce, White Moon Caravan, Misoma Chamber of Commerce"
Powerful chambers of commerce generally choose to engrave their logos on clothes to avoid unnecessary trouble.
At this moment, Duan Xiong immediately recognized three of them at a glance.
There are even more signs that he has not recognized yet, and those who are not wearing labeled clothes, plus at least four or five more.
"Shall I take you to the Ministry of Foreign Trade to sign in first?"
"We hope that the town has built a special foreign hotel. The first night is currently free. If you don't mind, , you can also take a good rest for a day, and it’s not too late to plan the transaction tomorrow.”
Wen Da stepped out of the car, very satisfied with the performance of Duan Xiong and others at this time.
The town that was built in advance to accommodate 10,000 people looked just stupid when there was not enough people to enter.
Now that popularity has flowed, everything has changed dramatically.
Like every caravan he has received in the past ten days, everyone who comes here is so shocked without exception.
Wen Da knew very well what shocked these people.
It is not civilization, nor advancement, nor rapid development.
But order!
A kind of rules and order in the post-apocalyptic wasteland that is comparable to modern society.
"Then...brother Laowen will arrange it." Duan Xiong opened his mouth, but finally nodded with difficulty.
The group of people walked along the town and soon came to a two-story prefabricated house with a large area of more than 200 square meters.
Immediately, I signed my name according to the staff's instructions, and briefly stated the items I wanted to trade during this trip.
A light yellow trading permit was produced and handed over.
At the top is a full-body photo of Duan Xiong himself, with the words Siping Caravan and transaction deadline etched below.
Turn over to the back and there is a big Arabic numeral "1".
“What does this 1 represent?”
“Oh, this level is the internal division of our Tianyuan territory. According to the number and volume of transactions of the caravan here, each There will be an opportunity to re-level or upgrade once a month. The higher the level, the greater the discount you will enjoy in transactions, and the more things you can trade.”
“This is the first time for any caravan to come here. Are they all level one?" Duan Xiong asked.
"Yes." The staff member nodded and replied without thinking.
"Thank you." Putting away the certificate, Duan Xiong stood up silently, his mind still a little dazed.
Of course he knows what the other party’s purpose is.
But they, the caravans, have always chosen the traders. Now, they are being picked and picked by the other side. There is even a hierarchy to distinguish the treatment of different caravans.
"Is it possible that in addition to food, this Tianyuan territory has other good things that Fatty Liu didn't mention?"
With this thought in his mind, Duan Xiong decided not to think about it, and went straight out with his troops. go.
Pushing the door, Wen Da, who sent everyone here before, has disappeared, and there are no other people around to follow him.
It is completely different from other human territories that strictly guard against foreign populations.
“Wow, this town looks really clean, much better than those pig pens we saw on the road.”
"Do you smell it? I seem to smell fried chicken!"
"Fried chicken, you kid must be crazy about eating meat."
"Even if there is Meat, which place is willing to use oil to fry it for you now?”
“But it doesn’t taste good. Look, isn’t that place just frying it?”
“What? , it seems to be true.”
"Boss, can I apply to come and have a look? I've never seen any territory so open on this road."
"Hey, not only is there fried chicken, but there is also a clothing store over there?"
Hearing the conversation among the team members, Duan Xiong coughed and discovered the fried chicken restaurant directly on the street.
In modern society, 100% no one dares to say the word health.
But in the wasteland, it can be regarded as a "great supplement".
Plenty of calories, fresh texture, and rich protein made even him a little greedy.
“Let’s go and check out the price.”
With Duan Xiong’s nod of approval, the group headed straight for the first “Hope Explosion Shop” in the wasteland. Chicken Shop".
As we get closer, we can see that this fried chicken restaurant occupies a small area, about thirty square meters, and is as clean and tidy as other places in the town.
The prices are clearly marked at the door. Calculated by kilogram, a kilogram of fried chicken costs 1.2 yuan.
"Yuan Dian?"
Duan Xiong has long been accustomed to the fact that each territory has different currency.
But after glancing at the explanation of Yuan Dian below the signboard, he was a little surprised.
It is different from the unlimited issuance of currency in other territories, which is distributed arbitrarily, or simply prints money out of thin air.
This Tianyuan territory is outrageous. It adopts the "meat standard".
One pound of meat corresponds to exactly one yuan point, and as many yuan points are distributed as there is meat.
It is also very easy for outsiders to exchange yuan points. They can easily complete the exchange by bringing meat that can pass the inspection.
So, under the guidance of the clerk, the group walked around and arrived at another three-story mobile house.
Compared with the previous Ministry of Foreign Trade, which looked like a residential building, this "Tianyuan Bank" is slightly more solemn and solemn. There are even four strong armed guards standing guard at the door.
Entering the bank, the procedure for inspecting meat is not complicated.
After taking out a pile of carcasses of birds that were hunted on the road and weighing ten kilograms, Duan Xiong thought that a lot of them would be returned.
But to his surprise, all the corpses passed the inspection and met the collection standards.
"Mr. Duan Xiong, your ten yuan points have been temporarily stored in the transaction license and can be used within thirty days. You only need to show your permission to deduct the consumption."
" Only thirty days? What if I want to save it for a long time? "
"If you want to save it for a long time, you need to reach the third level of caravan level, or apply for a permanent residence in the town."
< br>
"Thank you."
Taking the permission back from the window, Duan Xiong felt more and more that his cognition was a little confused.
Who would have thought that the Tianyuan Territory already has electronic storage methods when other places have not even recovered banknotes.
If this scene happened five years later, no, three years later, he would be able to accept it.
But it happened just over seven months ago.
"Hello, I haven't had time to ask what the name of the lord of our territory is?"
"Mr. Duan Xiong is too polite. The name of the lord of our territory is Chen Shen. If you want to trade valuables, you can apply to be with the lord. Face-to-face negotiation."
"Chen Shen."
Duan Xiong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was not the name that popped up subconsciously in his mind.
The development speed of this Tianyuan territory is simply too fast. If the outside world knows about it, it will definitely cause a storm.
And if a layer of Su Shen's buff is added, I'm afraid as soon as the news leaks out, countless crazy aliens will come to provoke and attack.
Now that a person whose name I have never heard of is the lord, it can actually make the Tianyuan Territory peaceful for a longer time.
Thinking about this, Duan Xiong was not stingy after returning to the fried chicken restaurant.
With a wave of his hand, he spent the ten yuan he just got and bought ten kilograms of fried chicken.
“Eat, and work hard after eating.”
Everyone was given nearly a pound of fried chicken. The team members were so satisfied that they almost bit off their lips after eating it.
But none of them would know that this scene was suddenly transmitted to another place two kilometers away from the town!
On the sofa on the third floor of the underground shelter, watching the dozen or so people on the screen devouring food, Somo stretched out comfortably.
Since the territory finally stopped engaging in the "Dark Forest" theory these days and began to rely on the several previously established channels to spread the location, the caravans that came finally came one after another.
These people brought a lot of good things, even if they only ended up trading less than one-tenth of the total amount, it made him experience the joy of foresight for the first time.
Those notorious caravans had been screened out by him early in the ruins, and they would be persuaded to return for various reasons before they even entered the territory.
The rest are naturally caravans who are willing to abide by the rules.
It doesn’t require much force to guard it, and it doesn’t even need a caregiver like now. It can move forward and explore according to the planned route, and finally achieve the goal.
"It's a pity that the fog disaster is coming soon. Except for these caravans who know the route, it will be difficult to guide other caravans to come."
In Sumo's heart There was still a slight pity that there were only two days left in the disaster relief period. On the stairs linking the second and third floors, Pei Shao walked down excitedly and kept saying.
"Director, we finally found one of the ruins you asked us to look for!"
"We found it, which one is it?"
"The one you marked the time gear. "
"Adventurer. Okay, okay!"
Sumo stood up suddenly, with a hint of joy on his face.
Thanks to the boss of Ercheersanlan for the reward, thank you boss~
