Chapter 28, Corpse Starch
Henry really wanted to buy it.
The alloy plastic steel material itself, as well as the individual vest created, have already allowed him to see huge profits.
He was just a businessman in his hometown of Junk Town. But he has further ideas, he is chasing the identity of 'agent'.
Garbage Town is a chaotic place, but it is also a holy place for doing business: it is rich in resources and has a large population.
There, if the business is big enough, there are enough people under your command, and the force is strong enough, you can gain enough influence and become an 'agent'. In the entire chaotic political ecology of Garbage Town, it is the agents who have the final say. They each hold a unique business and form a monopoly. They compete with each other and unite with each other, creating huge power.
Henry didn't have enough people and the business wasn't big enough. But if he can really win the alloy plastic steel business, then he will have a unique business. As long as he has the support of the Wasted Dong Society and allows him to monopolize, he can quickly obtain a large amount of profits.
The remaining problem is money, that can be easily solved.
The identity of an agent was already beckoning to him.
To be honest, if it weren't for the governor behind the Wasted Dong Society, he would definitely turn around and leave now, and then find a way to gather a team to completely wipe out the Wasted Dong Society and firmly limit the production capacity of alloy plastic steel. Hold it in your own hands.
What a pity...
But it doesn't matter, as long as we can get the exclusive agency rights for this business, that's enough.
Henry solemnly said to Patel: "I want all of your goods, and I will give you the best price. We can also sign a long-term cooperation agreement. Believe me, I will definitely be able to help you sell these treasures." To the entire wasteland world! We will become the best partners, as long as you sign an exclusive agreement with me.”
"Wait...you wait first."
"?"
Henry's brows furrowed tightly: "Do you have any other conditions? Just ask!"
Patel quickly waved his hand: "I don't have any conditions, but this matter, even if I say it, it doesn't count!"
Before Henry could speak, he continued: "Everything here belongs to the great Governor. I don't dare to agree to anything casually. Without the Governor's nod, not a single piece of alloy plastic steel here can be sold."
"Your Majesty the Governor..." Henry calmed down and started to have a headache.
It may not be difficult to fool Patel, but to fool the Governor...
He had also heard about some of the deeds of the governor named 'Gu Hang'. He was a maverick. After landing, he did not take over the power of the alliance government. Instead, he went to the wilderness to engage in construction.
Can construction save the entire Raging Star?
Henry didn't believe it.
Even under the rule of the governor, the Wasted Dong Society had undergone earth-shaking changes in a short period of time. But just such a change is still far from changing the entire ecology of the Raging Owl Star.
In two years' time, Governor Gu will probably be dealt with by the Imperial Taxation just like his predecessors.
But before that, he was the Governor, the nominal supreme ruler of the planet.
As a small businessman like me, what capital did he have to deceive an imperial governor?
Seeing Henry's hesitation, Patel didn't know how this 'old friend' had changed his mind. He just grinned and comforted with a smile: "The Governor is a very good person. As long as you serve him sincerely, you will definitely get rich rewards."
When Patel said this, he seemed very loyal. But why did Henry vaguely feel that there was another meaning behind him:
"If you are not sincere enough, then you are doomed." It must be an illusion. How can this Patel have so much thought?
Henry took a deep breath and said firmly: "I'm going to meet the governor right now!"
……
The great governor Gu Hang is currently studying a corpse.
Its shape barely resembles that of a creature. It has four limbs and looks like it is walking semi-upright. It looks a bit like a headless ape with abscesses all over its body and completely uncoordinated limb proportions. Its chest is extremely swollen.
It is very fast, extremely ferocious, and has claws on all its limbs. After hunting, the prey's body will be torn into pieces, and then the pieces of the prey will be corroded and dissolved through the pus on the body, and then 'dissolved' into one's own body.
This thing, the locals call it the 'abscess monster', is a common monster in the wasteland.
At that time, he was taking a nap in his room when he suddenly heard movement outside. Then Zhang Chao reported to him that more than a dozen abscess monsters appeared on the expansion site outside the camp and attacked the workers.
Although the soldiers guarding the camp arrived quickly and annihilated the group of monsters, three workers were still killed.
Death and injury are, of course, a very bad thing.
But this is a wasteland.
Gu Hang did not pay attention to what had already happened and could not be changed.
He looked at the monster corpse in front of him and asked a soul question:
"Can this thing be eaten?"
"Uh..."
Yan Fangxu didn't understand what the Governor was thinking, but he was shocked.
Gu Hang was a little dissatisfied with Lao Yan's shock. He emphasized: "In the wasteland, the most important thing is food! Every day when I open my eyes, I have to think about how to feed thousands of people in three camps. Sitting on the mountain It's definitely not possible to eat everything. We have to find a way to find the source of all food. I think this kind of thing has great potential. It is said that there are many things in the wasteland, and there are zombie dogs and other things. If they can all be eaten... …”
"Mr. Governor, please wait..." Yan Fangxu said helplessly, "These monsters have a large number of highly corrosive abscesses on their bodies. They don't look like they are edible, do they?"
"How will you know if you don't try?" Gu Hang was still persistent, "Of course I don't want our people to eat it directly. I heard that on most hive planets, there is technology that can decompose all organic matter into food. . They call that... corpse starch? I wonder if this technology is available on the Angry Owl? Anyway, we must try to get it."
Yan Fangxu was even more helpless.
Brother, I have eaten starch cubes too!
That thing is essentially a food chemical product that can re-decompose recycled organic waste, including old clothes and other textile waste, waste wood, industrial organic waste, and even plant fibers, animal limbs, and a series of other things, into Small molecules are refined and processed into synthetic starch blocks.
Although some hive planets with extremely poor resources and extremely high population density do recycle the bodies of the dead and even recycle feces, so they are jokingly and infamously called "corpse starch", but don't say it!
After all, in general, the composition of synthetic starch is normal...
Those in small and trace amounts...
Even if we don't say it, we are still good friends.
