Chapter 1009 Warriors, welcome to the real world!
From the end of August to the beginning of December.
Counting the days, the large and small markets in the territory have been opened for more than three months.
Now, the most difficult period has already been successfully passed, and it has officially entered the stage of prosperous circulation.
At the beginning of the month, Hope Village made a rough count of the funds in the hands of the villagers.
The average was 12 coppers and 7 irons, and the median was 6 coppers and 2 irons.
Based on the current price of a catty of coarse grains being 2 iron coins, most people can buy more than 30 catties of grain with the funds in their hands, and if the price of grain is adjusted, this figure will double to 60 catties.
This is already an astonishing number.
After all, based on personal food intake, sixty catties is enough to keep an adult alive for three months, or even four months without being active.
For the refugees in the original camp who were short of food and clothing, and it may take two days to eat a meal during the heavy snowfall, 60 catties of grain reserves are undoubtedly "sudden wealth".
They will no longer worry about what to eat tomorrow, because the Tianyuan iron coins and copper coins in their hands can be exchanged for a lot of food from the village logistics office without any threshold.
They no longer worry about how to survive the next disaster, because under the accurate and efficient arrangement of the village management and under the general direction of the lord, everyone can find the most suitable job responsibilities for them.
Life seemed to return to normal, and order seemed to be re-established here.
And once you settle down, look at the funds saved in your hand.
Of course.
Most people are willing to think about how to improve their lives.
This change in the way of thinking indirectly led to the spontaneous start of "inflation" in the monetary system.
Of course, although this expansion is benign, it can guide the market in a healthier direction.
But no matter what, the money in your hand is depreciating every day you open your eyes.
For those who are in the first echelon of scavengers, they are more willing to invest their funds.
Whether it's the industry or yourself.
As long as you can increase your own strength, then the money spent is worth it.
However.
This expansion and consumption is limited to the "money" system.
Standing at a higher level of contribution points and honor points, not only did not expand, but they continued to shrink!
"Crazy, a bionic body sells two hundred contribution points???"
It only takes 500 points to stay in Tianyuan Dungeon. How dare a product made by a factory sell so expensive?
Even if it is calculated according to the highest standard, after deducting raw materials, labor costs and other expenses, etc., the profit margin will be full.
It shouldn't be so outrageous, right? !
If this thing can be sold, then I can pick up a hammer and come here to set up a factory to make money.
"It's said that this is a factory run by the lord, and I'm just the factory manager he hired."
"This price is not set by me, it is set by the lord."
Brother Zhi said helplessly.
Speaking of the price of the bionic body, not only a few people can't understand it.
He has had a lot of headaches for this matter these days.
But for this price, the lord's death is a one-shot price, and he can only act in accordance with the rules and regulations.
"The bionic body does not only sell one thing, we also provide many follow-up services."
"But it hasn't been officially released yet. If you want to know more, come back in a few days."
Factory trials have indeed rolled off the production line.
But it will take some time to train workers, prepare raw materials, and test reliability.
Just when he was about to find a reason to send away the idlers blocking the door, the game panel suddenly opened.
A private chat message jumped out, it turned out to be...
【Sumo: If they want to try it, they can use our test product. In addition, tell them that you can get a 10% discount if you book today, and you can arrange how to operate it. 】
Yo!
Brother Dang's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know how the lord knew what happened here, the news made him excited.
Unlike the dead wages in other places, the salary given to him by the underworld factory is not a simple currency.
There are not only contribution points, honor point rewards, but also certain share incentives based on performance.
And he doesn't know about others, but the few in front of him are all big families.
"In a few days"
"We're all here in this weather, can't we try it today?" Brother Male Gun said a little unwillingly: "Don't worry, we will never reveal it!"
"You're right. It's not easy to come here in this weather."
Brother Dang shook his neck, pretending to be embarrassed, but in fact he was already happy.
Several people tugged back and forth at the door until the dream hunter unwillingly gave the red envelope.
Only then did he get out of the way, and smiled and led the people to the industrial park.
"Who would have thought that just two months ago, this place was still a deserted muddy land." Brother Tang introduced with emotion: "These factory buildings are thanks to the production of the steel factory, otherwise it would take more time to build. .”
"I see, you didn't even have time to clean up the ground in this park, it's really quite dilapidated." The old man nodded.
"Haha, I'm used to seeing it these days, but I think it's okay, and these infrastructures can be built slowly in the future, after all, it's wasteland. It's definitely more important to put it into production first."
"Understood, enjoyment is second after all."
The block roads outside are still gravel roads, but in the park, there are pieces of simply treated land.
Because of the 100% humidity, most of the ground is very wet, and a light step will leave an obvious footprint.
"Presumably you have come here today, and you have more or less guessed the original intention of the lord to create bionic bodies?" Walking into the park, Brother Tang suddenly asked in a low voice on purpose.
"Is it that accident?" The male gun brother quickened his pace and said solemnly side by side: "If we use human lives to fill in the dangerous places in the city, we don't know how much we will have to pay. In fact, it is the first time I have heard of the three bionic bodies. I already roughly guessed his role, but I just don’t know how we can manipulate this thing to explore.”
"It seems that you understand very well." Brother Dang habitually said the mantra, then nodded and said: "Yes, the bionic body can replace us to enter some dangerous environments to explore and avoid most of the dangers. You just don't have it now. Seeing the complex process of the manufacturing process and the research and development costs of supporting software, I feel that these two hundred points are expensive."
"Believe me, after the trial, even if it is doubled, you will think it is worth it."
He did not mention the specific process.
But the six factories in the park have proved the truth.
Each of these simple workshops built with steel frames has a size of 300 square meters and is equipped with basic dust-free equipment.
Through the plastic dust-proof device on the periphery, one can vaguely see the large and small equipment placed inside.
Many trained workers are operating the equipment, making humming noises from time to time.
"There are already so many people?"
"Well, there are fifty-two people now, and it is estimated that the number of recruits will increase to about one hundred in the future."
"Fuck, so many people?" The old man's eyes widened.
Because of the fluttering moth, he knew the general situation of the Dream Iron and Steel Plant.
The current number of employees there is only 80 people, and the daily wages alone cost about 2,000 iron coins.
According to the salary that "no one knows better than me" before, 35 iron coins a day.
One hundred people, that's 3500 iron coins!
Good guy, this day's spending is almost catching up with all their accumulation now.
After knowing the cost, the old man was no longer ashamed to ask if it could be cheaper for the outrageous price quoted by Brother Dang before.
Not counting the expenditure on research and development of this technology, what you can see now is so outrageous.
Counting two hundred contribution points, that's really not expensive.
Continuing to walk into the park, Brother Dong introduced all the way, and soon arrived at the last huge factory building.
Pushing open several doors in a row, suddenly, a dry feeling came.
The ingenious design of isolating humidity makes the internal humidity basically in a constant humidity state, which is kept at about 60.
In the center of the arena, the huge black device that caught the eye attracted the attention of everyone present.
"That is."
"This is the server group for virtual reality."
Behind the device, a disheveled and disheveled face appeared, and he replied weakly.
"He is the deputy director of the underworld factory, Li Xing."
"If it's more convenient, you can call me Hades and judge."
Hearing Brother Ding's introduction, Li Xing rolled his eyes, stretched his waist and stood up from the chair.
"You are here to test the real world, right? The cost is 50 copper coins per person. Pay first and then talk."
"What? So expensive?"
Viagra, who had been silent all this time, couldn't hold back.
Fifty copper coins can be exchanged for five hundred catties of grain at the logistics office, so you can only test it once here?
"Of course, the cost of starting this big thing is not small. If you want to enter the 'real world' and find it expensive, you can definitely bring more people over to share the cost."
"The real world? Running in the virtual world?"
Taomengzhe's eyes lit up, and he interrupted the chatter that Viagra was about to export.
A whole new term, running in virtual reality?
Before that, he couldn't form a specific concept of how to control the bionic body.
But if you join the virtual world.
Good guy, is it possible to realize holographic simulation and form a picture of real people exploring in real time?
However, after noticing the surprise on Meng Tao Zhe's face, Li Xing and Brother Tang exchanged glances, with meaningful smiles on their faces in unison.
Sure enough, dealing with smart people is comfortable.
Basically, as long as they give some necessary connections, they can connect all the clues and get the answer.
"Don't think about it too much. What you want to test now is the 1.0 version of the real world. Don't expect too many powerful functions. It is already a miracle that it can run."
While talking, Li Xing pointed to the corner of the factory building.
Following his guidance, everyone saw some "strange-shaped" things there.
There is a long doll that looks like a fish and is about sixty centimeters long.
There's truck styling that looks like a shoddy model car.
There is a blurry face, which can only be roughly distinguished from the outline as a human being, but the height is only less than one meter and less than a dwarf.
There are also a few radiation beast models that ordinary people can't recognize, but everyone present is familiar with them.
"Is that a bionic body?"
The nuclear rifle wiped his eyes, and opened his mouth muffled in disbelief.
In his imagination, no matter how bad the bionic body technology is, at least it has to get along with humans, right?
But among the things present, only the dwarf can still see, the rest
"Okay, just try it and you'll know."
"Whether it works or not, I believe you will have a conclusion after a while."
Li Xing spoke confidently.
Despite these seemingly outrageous gadgets, the shape and structure should not be exactly the same.
But in fact, its internal parts are basically universal, and it only needs to replace the damaged module for maintenance.
It doesn't make any sense to make a special bionic body according to the unique needs of each person. Except for the needs of the lord, it is impossible for the underworld factory to develop an independent parts assembly line for a certain user.
On the contrary, if the user can adapt to one of the bionics, the other bionics can also be used quickly.
This is what the developers wanted to achieve in the first place!
"Okay, fifty copper coins, fifty copper coins, here you are."
Taking out the money bag from his pocket, Viagra eagerly counted out fifty copper coins and handed it over.
Several other people also took out copper coins to pay with distress.
This is indeed not a small sum.
Even they have gone to a lot of dangerous places to accumulate this amount.
On the contrary, the nuclear energy rifle performed the most easily, which may have a lot to do with the food and shelter in the barracks.
"Thank you for your patronage."
Brother Dang stepped forward and accepted the money with a smile on his face. After a while, he brought five simple patch helmets.
As a small-scale virtual reality device, there is an induction current inside the helmet, which can reduce the loss caused by wireless transmission.
Even if only five people are simulated, the required energy consumption is within acceptable range.
"Wait, don't move around."
"okay!"
Sitting cross-legged on the ground honestly, several people looked around nervously.
After about a minute, with a sense of trance, the vision began to blur.
All kinds of indescribable colors began to flip, twist, stretch, and overlap in front of my eyes.
The colorful silk lines began to be reconstructed in the field of vision, and a general outline was drawn after a while.
It's not the first time to enter the virtual world, but compared to the gentleness in the past, this time it is obviously stronger and more real.
A faint wind blows across the face, and the natural smell of leather lingers on the tip of the nose.
The nuclear rifle was the first to come to his senses, shaking his head and looking around.
The place where everyone is now is the entrance of an open hall, and there is light behind the two glass doors.
There is a striking sign above the glass door, which says two huge Chinese characters:
real world.
"This is."
Pushing open the glass door, the nuclear energy rifle couldn't help but freeze at the door.
The first thing that catches the eye is a huge bar made of marble about ten meters long.
Behind the bar, there are two rows of cabinets connected to the ceiling, separated by acrylic panels, and temporarily only a golden trophy is placed.
A figure who was covered in fog and couldn't see clearly was standing at the bar, looking at several people.
A very strange feeling.
Although they couldn't see the other party's expression, the few people present felt that the other party seemed to be expressing kindness and smiling at themselves.
"Warriors, welcome to the real world!"
