Chapter 954

Nine p.m.

In the misty night.

Not far from the Starscream chariot, "joyful laughter" began to appear along with the crowd.

It was a little different from when they set off for Qinggang City. Standing on the sentry tower and looking at the scavengers in the mist with various firepower weapons, the eyes of the four guards who were on guard couldn't help but widen.

what the hell

Didn't they still carry primitive crossbows and some old-looking pistols before they set off?

Why is the shotgun suddenly changed now?

Those bright and shiny rifles hanging around the neck, and sharp submachine guns pinned on the waist.

Fuck, there is also a horse-riding rpg launcher?

The distance was getting closer and closer, and the guards observed more and more things, and they couldn't help being even more surprised.

And even Xiao En, who stepped out of the chariot, was taken aback by this battle.

Wearing a thick raptor power armor, deputy captain Darren passed by the flank of the team, untied his restraints and walked over.

"Captain, the total amount collected today is about 700g. Mature calming powder is not common in the western suburbs of Qinggang City. It seems that we must expand the scope tomorrow and go deeper into Qinggang City."

Sean: "They... are they carrying a predator's weapon arsenal?"

Darren: "I don't know where they got it. Anyway, Captain Feng Long said that this group picked them up from a corner, but considering the battle that night, this situation is also possible."

"Pick it up?"

Sean frowned.

"Our risk will be much greater when we go deep into Qinggang City. Once these people are injured or injured, we may have to pay a huge pension to that manager. Is the outer periphery of the western suburbs gone?"

Darren said helplessly.

"According to the situation we detected today, calm powder should have been harvested by the gopher guy recently, and obvious signs of picking can be seen. We can find these today thanks to the hard work of those workers who went to some very Found in a hidden corner."

"In addition, although the deflagration caused by the large-scale battle that night was extinguished by the rain, it still affected a lot of calm fans. If we want to collect enough quantities, we must go to the area within the third ring of Qinggang City. possible."

The entire western suburbs are poor in resources, and there are ruins of collapsed buildings everywhere.

With the powerful Pingtan Refuge sitting in town, there are not many predators willing to come to fight the autumn wind on weekdays.

Most of the surviving humans were finally concentrated in the central area of ​​the city, relying on some public buildings left over from before the war to survive.

And those mutants are supported by the Flat Beach Refuge, so they won't haunt and survive here.

So it directly led to the fact that the western suburbs didn't look as dangerous as imagined, and even mutant beasts would hardly be encountered.

But if you go to the city center, enter the area inside the third ring road.

For the caravan guards wearing power armor, no one in Qinggang City dared to hit them at will, and it was still very safe.

But these hired laborers

Sean, who had already decided to establish a good relationship with this strange shelter, didn't want to see any accidents happen at all.

Even if the caravan can afford the pension, a series of subsequent crises of trust must be considered.

"How many people do we have to mobilize to ensure their collection is safe?"

Darren was slightly silent, appraising in his heart and shaking his head.

"The dangers hidden in every pre-war city are different. Because of the proximity of the harbor in Qinggang City, the underground pipeline construction is very complicated. Even if we have wiped out the threats on the ground, there is no guarantee that there will be no dangers." The monster suddenly rushed out from an invisible hiding place. Therefore, to ensure that there are no casualties, we must dispatch at least sixteen people. One team is responsible for clearing the threats on the ground, and the other team is responsible for personal protection."

"Also. Captain, the news you got should be true. Today, when I was patrolling, I happened to meet a few homeless people who passed by. They confirmed that the purchasing power of the foundation's business certificates has been declining rapidly, and the depreciation rate is about ten times. about."

Sean: "."

Well, the bad news that was pried out of Jin Dazhi's mouth was indeed true.

If the Foundation's business bonds depreciated due to some unexpected reasons, the Starscream caravan had basically used up the money in the account before this trip, using it to upgrade tanks, purchase ammunition, and purchase industrial cores, the impact would not be serious .

But if we look at the underlying logic of the depreciation of commercial securities, this means that

The Foundation's influence is waning!

In a short period of time, the caravan may not be able to unscrupulously pull out the banner of the Foundation and do things unimpeded.

And want to go back to the foundation headquarters to continue to maintain competitiveness, upgrade more equipment to deal with dangerous situations.

High-value objects have become the best choice right now.

"The situation is different. We must collect enough calming fans to bring back to the headquarters. You take sixteen people out tomorrow, and you must ensure their safety as much as possible, so that no accidents will happen."

"Tell these people that our material demand has been doubled, and the salary has been tripled. If someone can exceed the quota, we will reward half of the previous reward!"

There are a total of forty guards in the caravan, and sixteen of them are dispatched at one time, which is already close to half of them.

After hearing this, Darren said with a slightly weird expression:

"Captain, according to my observation today, such a reward may not stimulate the enthusiasm of these people?!"

"Oh? How do you say it? Is it because the commercial certificates cannot be issued to them?"

Sean was slightly puzzled.

The commercial certificates outside have depreciated, but what he paid these people was not commercial certificates, but goods of equivalent value.

Is it because the manager took all the salaries of everyone?

If this is the reason, it will be a bit troublesome.

"Probably not, I think it's just plain unattractive." Darren said with a complicated expression: "Their love for firepower weapons is completely beyond my imagination. How to describe it. The performance is probably the same as when I was 12 years old when I first opened a car." My father's Power Armor isn't too far behind."

"So I think it might be better to give them similar rewards in kind? For example, don't they have guns now? We can use tools to help them modify them. Anyway, we don't need to spend any special and rare materials. Just let the engineering department Those people practice their hands. Or let them collect some things by themselves, and we use printing machines to help them make some things, maybe such a reward is more attractive?"

"Is that so?"

Sean nodded.

It's okay if you don't like coupons and materials, but you like weapons.

Looking at the guys they brought this afternoon, what Darren said probably made sense.

If you can use this cheap one.

At this time, an inexplicable fragrance suddenly floated from a distance, interrupting Xiao En's thinking.

"Damn?! What kind of smell, so fragrant! Is our kitchen preparing supper?"

Darren raised his brows, and there was a trace of surprise on Gu Jing Wubo's face.

After a busy afternoon, even if the power armor he was wearing had an energy supply, it didn't consume much energy.

At this point, he was also very hungry, wishing he could rush to the kitchen to eat something good.

"Supper, of course there is supper!"

After taking a breath of the smell that filled the air, Sean's stomach also made a growling sound.

Even though he had only eaten for less than three hours, the food in his stomach hadn't been digested yet.

But the moment this fragrance appeared, it still made him slightly distracted, and suddenly he fantasized about the most famous "Perfume Fire Rabbit" by Boke Luozhi.

In the holy city, the price of that thing is not only as high as 50,000 business coupons, but also more expensive than the price of a middle-spec version of the red spider chariot.

In terms of other restrictive requirements, it also belongs to outrageous fucking open the door for outrageous, outrageous to home.

Before eating, you need to make an appointment, and you have to wait at least half a year to get your turn.

After eating, if you want to eat again next time, the price will increase by 10,000 coupons, and continue to increase.

When passing through the holy city of Bokeluozhi, he was lucky enough to participate in a tasting event and tasted a small piece of meat.

But it was this piece that he had been thinking about for more than five years.

Up to now, sometimes I still dream of the smell that is almost fragrant to the bone.

When did the kitchen of the caravan be able to make such a high-quality supper?

Xiao En was more and more pleasantly surprised, and wanted to walk towards the kitchen.

However, it was only when the two turned their heads to look at the chariot that they realized it.

At this time, from the open windows of the chariot, many members of the caravan also poked their heads out, breathing in the smell of the air.

look where they look

"etc."

"Is this smell the worker's camp?"

On the open space in front of the prefabricated house.

The simple pot and stove were set up, and Ma Haoge was humming a ditty while vigorously kneading the dough in his hands.

Beside him, the "vegetarian hunter" who stood out from the chef apprenticeship camp was using vegetable oil to moisten the pot.

Zila.

Put the shredded potatoes into the oil pan, and there is a violent collision between the water and the boiling oil.

Hoo. Hoo.

The blower under the cooker was powerful, and the flames kept escaping from the gaps on both sides.

After stir frying a few times, the vegetarian hunter picked up a large spoon and picked up the seasoning from the chopping board familiarly.

salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar

When he reached the last vial, he carefully picked it up, shook it a little bit, and put it down quickly.

At this time, pour it into the pot and stir again.

Immediately, a strong fragrance radiated out along the steaming gas around the pot.

"Fuck, what are you doing, why is it so fragrant?"

"Potato shreds, what the hell, did the lord give us extra meals today?"

"Do you want money? When I came out, I exchanged all the money on my body for equipment."

"The black-hearted old man who squeezed ramen juice is here, I'm afraid he's going to squeeze us hard."

"I'll eat it even if I ask for money, isn't the taste too tempting?!"

Smelling the smell of stir-frying, the guns I picked up during the day seemed to no longer smell so good.

The vegetarian hunter in charge of the spoon heard it, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but draw an imperceptible arc.

On Earth, he is just the owner of a husband and wife restaurant in a small town, and he usually also serves as the chef.

After coming to the wasteland, he thought that he only knew this skill, and he would definitely lose it in the future.

But who would have thought that after more than half a year, there would be room for him to play again.

Not only has the corresponding route choice, but now he is also valued by the lord and participated in the secret mission.

As long as this potato shreds added with "Wanweispore" can complete the task

That's 50 contribution points!

The previous task of digging ditches only gave 1 contribution point a day, and it would take at least a year to collect the points for moving into the dungeon.

And now, as long as he can get this 50, he will undoubtedly be a long way from the day when he takes his wife into the dungeon and rents a shop to reopen a restaurant!

"This is the working meal arranged by the lord. There is no charge. Everyone has it until you are full!"

"In front of outsiders, don't be crowded, and don't lose the face of our Tianyuan Territory."

The vegetarian hunter gave a shout.

Suddenly, the scavengers boiled.

Free buffet, this is the treatment that S-level talents can enjoy in the previous version.

They came out to carry out the mission this time, not only picked up a lot of good things, but now they are also treated like this.

I am super!

It's so cool!

"Bring me a big bowl of noodles, and I'll eat them with shredded potatoes!"

The number one man in the wasteland came to the noodle pot with his porcelain bowl eagerly in his hands.

After being free, Ma Haoge's normally hated face turned out to be a little kinder.

Especially after he took out two chopsticks full of noodles from the pot and put them into the bowl, the male gun brother was so excited that he was about to cry.

Of course, I was not moved to cry by the weight.

Instead, I was so greedy for the taste!

The noodles tonight seem to be different from those sold in the market, and there is a strong and strange fragrance inside them.

Taking a sip, my stomach seems to be twitching greedily.

"Thank you, I want to order potato shreds, and I will also order this cold wild vegetable."

Received a bowl of vegetarian dishes that almost covered the entire bowl from the vegetarian hunter, the male gun brother couldn't hold back his inner impulse anymore.

While sobbing, he walked towards an open space where no crowds gathered.

Squatting beside Feng Long who had already been inhaled by the storm, Meimei took a breath of the fragrance.

Just when Brother Male Gun was about to eat, two figures approaching from a distance interrupted his movements.

"friend."

The figure approached, and the male gun brother recognized the speaker at a glance.

It seems to be the boss of this caravan, next to the captain who accompanied them out in the afternoon?

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the caravan boss chattering nonstop, the male gun brother looked dazed and could only look at Feng Long.

"Do you want to eat the supper in our hands?"

Feng Long took a big mouthful of noodles, and while chewing, he replied vaguely.

"No, no, our lord manager said that food... can't be supplied to outsiders, otherwise there will be accidents."

"Accident, no, no, friend, you misunderstood!"

Food knows no borders, and taste resonates.

Xiao En was about to be fainted by the incense, so he couldn't care less about any accidents at this moment.

"I buy, we buy your food. Don't worry, we pay five times the price of raw materials, no. Ten times, we buy your supper at ten times the price."

"You can't even buy it. The manager said that it can't be provided to any outsiders."

"How could it be, how could it be an outsider?" Darren, who was also dizzy, changed his words again and again: "We are friends, we are best friends, and friends should share good things, are you right?"

"It seems... makes sense?" Taking another big mouthful, Feng Long wiped his mouth and replied stubbornly, "But."

"No, but you need permission from your managers, right? I'll let him apply for it."

Sean turned his head and whispered something to Darren beside him.

The latter turned around like flying and ran towards the chariot.

Half a minute later, a power armor that was about to go berserk turned on its full horsepower and roared towards the village.

Compared with the speed of 60 kilometers per hour when rushing to Qinggang City, the speed of the current power armor is frighteningly fast, even exceeding the speed of 100 kilometers per hour.

After about an hour, Sean sat on the ground and cursed secretly dozens of times.

Darren finally rushed back, holding a crumpled note in his hand, and shouted from afar:

"Captain Feng, we."

"Takeaway, we need Tianyuan Takeaway!"
