On June 2nd, Calendar Year 2, at the end of the wasteland, the wheels of history were turning, and they finally left a mark.
“Buy! Buy! Buy!”
“The current price is a preferential price. Set it first, otherwise the price will definitely increase when there are more people in the future!”
“ We can still deliver goods, so what are you afraid of? We may be able to hitchhike home together. "
"Clothes, we have to buy a lot of new clothes back. Many people still travel to the wasteland. That body is almost in tatters!”
"You're right, buy more medicines, otherwise it will be too hard to fight off every fever and cold."
"."
Facing the Tianyuan Territory, it is far lower than the market average prices for various goods.
The people from the Honghua Gang, Black Shark Gang, Shenwei Territory, and Fire Phoenix Valley suddenly turned into locusts and almost went crazy.
Although the price of millions of copper coins sounds staggering, once these copper coins are converted into the hard currency of the New World - gold, their actual value is completely within the acceptable range.
Taking 100,000 quilts as an example, the price paid is only 800 kilograms of gold.
For the Honghua Gang who were lucky enough to discover a small gold mine, this expense was simply negligible and would hardly have any substantial impact on the operation of their territory.
Of course, purchasing these various finished products directly instead of producing them yourself will undoubtedly be a huge blow to the developing industrial chain in the territory.
These cheap foreign goods will quickly flood into the market and meet domestic demand at low prices, making it impossible for related industries in the territory to compete with them.
But having said that, how long will it take to produce 100,000 quilts with the capabilities of the Honghua Gang?
Half a year?
One year?
Two years?
With the current urgent need for food, these cotton and linen crops will never be grown on the only arable land in the territory.
The technology in the territory does not allow them to conduct research and development to develop alternative silk products.
And when they are able to produce, how long will it take?
Is it possible that we really have to rely on that bed of weed quilts to survive several springs, summers, autumns and winters?
People who have experienced the fluffy hotel beds have expressed their opinions that even if they are hungry for a few meals, they must have a set, let alone if it does not cost much.
In addition, apart from the factors of domestic demand in the territories, the four major territories must also show some sincerity if they want to cooperate with Tianyuan.
At the very least, Tianyuan must make money before further cooperation can be carried out.
In the initial plan, the lords of the Honghua Gang had even prepared to donate a batch of resources to obtain a quota for cooperation with the Tianyuan Territory.
Now that there is no need to pay tribute, these resources were naturally purchased by Liu Zhi into various materials.
'One hundred thousand quilts, five hundred thousand towels, three hundred thousand sweatshirts and sweatpants, five hundred thousand short-sleeves, fifty thousand pieces of soap.'
'One million people Doses of medical supplies, cold medicine, antibiotics, analgesics, disinfectants, surgical tools'
'Three hundred second-generation 'Little Thunder Eagle' energy-removing electrical appliances used to supply energy'
'One hundred "short-distance convenient communicators" that can communicate at will within 300 kilometers.'
'.'
The Honghua Gang purchases the most items related to people's livelihood, highlighting the A man with deep pockets.
In comparison, the other three territories seem a bit embarrassed.
They do not have natural gold mines to mine like the Honghua Gang. Their only reserves are obtained through difficult exchanges with other territories.
In addition, the size of the territory is much smaller than that of the Honghua Gang, so it is natural to be more cautious when purchasing.
However, the considerate Logistics Department seemed to be aware of their difficulties, and Minister Shen Ke came to the scene in person.
“Although gold is the hard currency of the wasteland, our Tianyuan’s demand for other resources is also great.”
“We are in urgent need of a large number of other types of resources, including but not limited to mineral resources. I have arranged for staff to post the specific list of biological resources, local specialty resources, etc. in the town. You can check it out by yourself."
"Besides, it doesn't matter if there are no minerals, we also recycle them. Props, cards, and rewards issued by various games. ”
"In the future, we will also recycle various raw materials, such as processed steel and iron materials, or use them as raw materials for chemical synthesis, etc."
Unexpected human trafficking, the heads of the four major territories suddenly He breathed a sigh of relief.
What they were most afraid of before coming was that the Tianyuan Territory asked for a population and exchanged the population for resources, etc.
But now Shen Ke has not mentioned that there is a high probability that Tianyuan Territory does not need too many people to settle in.
Thinking of this, the four of them began to worry about gains and losses, and began to think wildly.
What if Tian Yuan really proposes human trafficking?
The lords of the four major territories can refuse, but can they do it?
After confirming that the territory’s first foreign trade went extremely smoothly.
Sumo returned to his desk and began to look at the information on the four territories prepared by Mr. Qiao with a focused expression.
Just at a glance, the first line of information above makes people a little nervous.
"Honghua Gang, leader Ji Wuming, yo, this guy's name is quite similar to the male protagonist of the novel."
"This name has never appeared in Future Relics. It seems that he is another guy influenced by me. . ”
The timelines of the real wasteland and the wasteland of the future have long been completely different.
Although in some grand stages, such as the Northern Territory, Dragon Flag, Golden Eagle and other super territories, the changes in them are not obvious.
However, looking at these small and medium-sized territories, more and more buried talents have emerged one after another.
There is no need to trace the reason far back. Because of the war at the end of a year, the number of humans was nearly halved to less than one billion in half a year, and now this number is at least around 2 billion.
The gap between the two countries is close to one billion people, which is three times that of the Lighthouse Country. It is not surprising that this situation exists now.
“The Honghua Gang controls a radius of 130 kilometers, with a total of over 200,000 residents.”
“The straight-line distance from Tianyuan is 2,900 kilometers, but it can be reduced by taking the waterway. To about 1,600 kilometers."
"There are three patrol protection teams in the territory, each with 500 people. Hey, this is not life."
The lively barbecue party held by the group last night was filled with a lot of exaggerated bragging and gossip.
Sumo sifted through this information, excluding those that were too outrageous and exaggerated, and finally focused on the records about Ji Wuming.
What is surprising is that this record not only records in detail how Ji Wuming led people deep into the dwarf territory many times to rob and plunder supplies, but also records the furious counterattack of the dwarves after being robbed. , but were led by Ji Wuming to fight back in three battles. So awesome?
Sumo picked up the map next to him and began to carefully calculate the distance between the Red Flower Gang and the dwarf camp.
As expected, the distance between the two is indeed very close, only about 500 kilometers.
This also means that the description in the record is most likely not a lie, but what really happened.
Zero floating in mid-air is also retrieving this information. Based on the judgment logic of artificial intelligence, after conducting in-depth analysis and evaluation, it finally gave an evaluation with extremely high reference value.
"Master, this is a reference topographic map I drew based on all the information I have recently collected in the territory."
The voice of Zero reverberated in the air, accompanied by the light. Flash, the projection on the wall instantly changed, showing a more detailed and precise map.
This topographic map not only depicts in detail the changes in topography affected by the earthquake, but also accurately and repeatedly revised every subtle change in the mountains, valleys, and plains.
What is even more rare is that it also clearly marks the main flow direction and branch flow direction of the Dragon Immortal River, allowing people to make a clear judgment at a glance.
You can say that.
Even if this topographic map is not 100% accurate, it can still restore more than 80% of the topography of the New World.
Achieving such accuracy is inseparable from the busyness of the External Relations Department within half an hour after each earthquake.
It is precisely with the information collected from various major territories that Zero can draw such an accurate map.
"The distance between the territorial boundary of the Honghua Gang and the main stream of the Julong Xianjiang River is roughly 3 to 8 kilometers. The distance to the nearest tributary to the Xianjiang River is 70 to 110 kilometers "
"In comparison, the dwarf territory we are going to is far away from the main stream of Xianjiang, about 50-80 kilometers away from Xianjiang, and its nearest tributary. Also look for it within a range of 15 to 35 kilometers.”
These data sound a bit convoluted, but they are very intuitive when displayed on the map.
Starting from the Tianyuan territory and heading north, after a journey of 1,600 kilometers, you can reach the Honghua Gang territory.
If we continue heading north without stopping, we can reach the vicinity of the dwarf territory about 450 kilometers away.
However, due to the division of terrain, the border of Honghua Gang is very close to the main trunk of Xianjiang and can be reached on foot.
Because the dwarf territory is too large, it is relatively far away from the main trunk, so you have to drive a vehicle to get close to the border.
To be honest, according to the current armed strength of Tianyuan Territory.
Even at this stage, defense facilities have long been built on the borders of the dwarves of all nations, but it is not difficult to launch a sudden attack at night.
A few rounds of rockets can knock the dwarves out of control.
However, after that, it would be a bit of a fantasy to continue to invade the dwarf hinterland and plunder at least five gathering places and capture 10,000 dwarves.
Unless the front line of this expedition is stretched extremely long, a large number of land combat vehicles are transported first, and then the fleet is allowed to enter the narrower tributaries through the main trunk for support, otherwise it will be impossible to complete this challenging task. .
But at that time, it was estimated that the three-month deadline stipulated in the challenge task had already passed.
Of course, the architecture of artificial intelligence determines that countless attempts can be made in simulations to find a way out of difficult situations.
Since No. 0 has given a complete topographic map, it means that there must be another option.
“Well, Master, if we can develop the Red Flower Gang into our expedition station, then ships can enter smoothly through the tributaries in their territory. In this way, we can bypass many obstacles, Straight to the heart of the dwarf territory."
As he spoke, a red arrow lit up, indicating that the ship should go straight through the territory of the Red Flower Gang.
This route only needs to go straight through the territory of the Red Flower Gang, and then turn northeast and drive about three hundred kilometers, and then it can go deep into the interior of the dwarf territory unimpeded.
Huh?
How could there be such a perfect tactical buffer zone?
Su Mo couldn't help but have a look of surprise on his face. He stretched out his hand to enlarge the map and observed it.
Soldiers are also deceitful.
Strategically, we must despise the enemy, and tactically, we must pay attention to the enemy.
Thinking from the perspective of the dwarf lord, after the earthquake, such a tributary appeared in the territory. It was able to flow all the way from the uncontrolled enemy territory into the hinterland of his own territory.
Isn't this a serious problem?
If this situation really happened in the Tianyuan territory, Sumo asked himself, even if he didn't eat or sleep, he would mobilize everyone to set up checkpoints on this tributary.
Otherwise, once the enemy advances straight in, it may bring unimaginable consequences.
“Interesting, really interesting.”
“Show me the person who released this news last night. No, just call up the real-time video of last night and show it to me.”
If Tianyuan Territory hadn't happened to want to take action against the dwarves, if it hadn't been for last night's barbecue to collect information.
You would not have noticed in advance that the tributaries in the Red Flower Gang's territory could reach the dwarf hinterland.
At that time, it is very likely that the news will not be learned from there until the cargo fleet from the territory arrives.
As the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is true.
When this news comes back through our own people, even if the Tianyuan Territory has no intention of counterattacking the dwarves before, it will probably be tempted to give it a try.
Soon, Zero projected the conversation in front of the barbecue stall on the wall.
Sumo looked at it several times and tentatively confirmed that the person who disclosed the information did not intentionally guide him, but actually said the information unintentionally.
"Could it be that my suspicion is that the persecution paranoia has occurred?"
Sumo pondered for a while, thinking secretly, and finally decided to plan everything according to the worst guess.
The reason why the dwarves of all nations can secure their position among the top ten alien races in the future ruins, and have always been the most difficult opponent of the Tianyuan Territory, has been defeated and defeated many times, and they have not been destroyed.
It relies not only on the terrifying number of ethnic groups in the eyes of the outside world, sophisticated weapons, and the tenacious spirit of being invincible.
According to Tianyuan’s top-secret documents, the real reason should be that these guys imitate and learn from humans.
They will continue to learn from failures and plug the loopholes as quickly as possible.
It can be said that as long as these guys are not put to death once, the same method will be ineffective the next time.
If this is really the dwarf who is deliberately seducing the Red Flower Gang, he wants to annihilate these troublesome mosquitoes in one fell swoop.
In other words, the dwarves colluded with the Honghua Gang territory and wanted to do something big to the Tianyuan territory.
Then this set of plans can at least help Tianyuan avoid a tragic defeat.
And if his guess is wrong, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the round trip will only take less than a week.
There are still two months left before the challenge mission. There is such a tributary, and there is no time to complete the mission.
“Call Sudeben over for me and tell him that a big job is coming!”
