Doom Smuggler

Chapter 12 Ideas for Building a Base

"Where can I buy a smart brain?"

Chen Yang looked at Li Lu who walked out of the shed together, and asked.

Li Lu who asked this question was a little at a loss.

Although things like brains are of no use to the vast majority of survivors in the wasteland.

But for those large-scale forces, it still has a certain value.

Therefore, all forces above the medium scale will basically have a stock of intellectual brains.

In Li Lu's view, since the forces behind her boss can provide enough food, they must be large in scale. Therefore, it should be normal for the forces to keep a large number of brains, right?

Why do you still have to ask where to buy a smart brain?

Although she was puzzled, Li Lu did not dare to ask questions, and replied honestly: "There is no such thing in the settlement, but you can buy it in Squirrel Town, but the price is high, at least fifteen catties of squirrel meat can be exchanged for it. If you come to buy a brain, it’s not worth it.”

"As long as you can buy it, we don't use squirrel meat, just use the kind of raw meat I gave you instead. The quality is definitely better than squirrel meat, so the price should be lower. In addition, you said before There are no strengthening potions? Can that thing be bought in Squirrel Town?"

Chen Yang continued to ask.

"Yes, there are ten levels of strengthening potions, but Squirrel Town only sells level one and level two strengthening potions. Level one potions are the cheapest and can be exchanged for five catties of squirrel meat. The price of level two potions is average. It is about five times that of the first-order potion."

Li Lu answered.

Chen Yang subconsciously calculated in his mind.

Five catties of meat for a Tier [-] potion?Even if calculated according to the price of pork, it is only about one hundred, right?

It's so cheap too!

About five hundred second-order potions?Hmm... I really want as much as I want...

While doing the calculations, Li Lu continued: "To the east of Squirrel Town, about 30 kilometers away, is a medium-sized settlement controlled by a medium-sized force. Up to the fifth level of strengthening potion, but the price is extremely exaggerated, and most people cannot afford it. The ruler of Squirrel Town is a fifth level strengthening person."

"Medical Association?"

Chen Yang noticed a brand new title.

"Uh... Boss, don't you know? This is one of the top powers in the wasteland. All survivors of the wasteland should know about the Doctors Association."

Li Lu asked strangely.

"Ahem, my power has always been relatively closed and self-sufficient. I basically don't know anything about the situation outside. So I wondered if I should also establish a sub-base here to facilitate things."

Chen Yang rubbed his chin and said.

This was the thought that came to his mind when he communicated with that Uncle Wei just now.

If you really want to build your own talent center here in the wasteland world and hire a sufficient number of people to work for you, then you will definitely need a stable working environment.

But the wasteland is full of dangers. Even if the food problem is solved, it still has to face various other dangers.

Whether it is zombies, alien species, mutated creatures, or possible malice from other forces, it must be considered.

In this way, it is imperative to establish a force with the ability to protect itself.

"Establish a sub-base? This...will be a huge investment, right?"

Li Lu hesitated and said.

"It doesn't matter, you have to have confidence in your boss. For your boss and me, any problem that can be solved by food is not a problem! I saw you and other people in the squirrel D colony before, and it seems that the relationship is not the same. Very nice? Don't you want them to have a better life?"

Chen Yang waved his hand very grandly, and continued: "Imagine, if Squirrel D develops into Squirrel Town, what kind of life can the survivors in Squirrel D live? If it continues to develop into What about a more powerful force? To be a human being, one must have a dream, otherwise what is the difference from a zombie?"

Hearing these words, Li Lu was stunned for a moment, and then she really started to fantasize, and a longing look appeared on her face.

Before meeting Chen Yang, she had done her best every day just to live a difficult life, so naturally she couldn't have any other extravagant thoughts.

But Chen Yang's sudden appearance, and the abundance of food reserves shown during the two consecutive days, made Li Lu feel activated!

"Boss, do you mean to build a base based on Squirrel D?"

Li Lu took a deep breath, tried her best to calm down the emotions that had been surging because of Chen Yang's few words, and then asked.

"That's right, what do you think? I don't know much about Squirrel D. Do you think Squirrel D is worth investing in? That is to say, is Squirrel D reliable?"

Chen Yang nodded and asked.

"That must be reliable! For the survivors of our small settlement to survive in the wasteland, mutual trust and solidarity are necessary prerequisites. If you really think about it, boss, then Personally, I suggest that it is best to buy a batch of strengthening potions first! Let the survivors of Squirrel D become stronger to a certain extent, at least after they have the ability to protect themselves, and then continue to consider the subsequent establishment of forces!"

Li Lu said in a deep voice.

"It makes sense, but... how can you guarantee that they will still obey me after they become stronger? After all, people are so close to each other, I don't want to spend a lot of materials and cultivate white-eyed wolves."

Chen Yang asked a very practical question.

"Boss, don't worry, as long as we ensure that your reinforcement level is always higher than others, this problem will be solved for the most part. In addition to the reward you can provide, I am afraid that even those large forces are completely inferior, so I can't think of any reason why they would betray you."

Li Lu pursed her lips and continued: "We people are already doing our best just to live! If we can have a better life, I believe no one will not cherish it."

"Well... how about this, first you make a simple budget for me, if you want to raise all the people in Squirrel D to the level of self-protection ability, how much food will you need to trade? At the same time, you can help I'll take a look and see if the people in Squirrel D are willing to accept this kind of employment."

After Chen Yang thought about it for a while, he directly chose to agree without too much entanglement.

It is not difficult to make such a decision.

The main reason is that the cost of trial and error is too low... Chen Yang doesn't need to worry about possible risks at all.

Even if you made a wrong decision and caused a loss, so what?

It's just some food...

"Yes, boss! I will complete the task as soon as possible!"

Li Lu responded energetically.

"Sure, then I'll go back first and bring back a computer for Uncle Wei. You deduct your monthly salary from the meat and vegetables you brought today, and the rest will be your start-up capital. Remember to give it to me. Uncle Wei bought a smart brain. I'll come back tomorrow, bye."

Chen Yang said, waved to Li Lu, turned around and walked outside the settlement.

Li Lu replied 'goodbye, boss' and bowed ninety degrees to Chen Yang.

It wasn't until Chen Yang walked out of sight that he showed hesitation.

After thinking about it, he still made up his mind, turned around and walked towards his hut.

Chapter 13 Buying a Computer

Chen Yang, who returned to the rental house, couldn't help stretching.

He was in a good mood, because through communicating with that Uncle Wei, he had confirmed that his previous idea was feasible.

With [-] catties of rice noodles and [-] catties of raw meat a month, can you hire a programmer at the level of a technical director?

Calculate the cost of one month can be 400 yuan?

Is this not just the price of cabbage?This is simply the price of jumping off a building and breaking a bone!

Moreover, the particularity of the wasteland world makes those technical talents worthless in the wasteland world.

Therefore, if he wants to obtain the corresponding talents, it is impossible for him to face any competition!

It doesn't get any better than this deal!

With this kind of excitement, Chen Yang turned and left the bedroom.

He had to go to the mall to buy a computer with the current top standard configuration and take it to the wasteland world.

As for the power problem, there is no need to worry about it. Squirrel D obviously has the ability to supply power.

After all, there is no difficulty in power generation technology. For the earth 200 years later, even if the whole world is destroyed, it is very easy to supply power in a small area.

As a result, as soon as Chen Yang pushed open the bedroom door, before he could step out, he froze in place.

The curtains in the living room are drawn, so it looks a little dark. On the sofa, another roommate, Zhou Dandan, is slumped on the sofa, with his two big white legs on the coffee table in front of the sofa, comfortably using his mobile phone. Stop brushing what...

This is of course nothing.

But the problem is...Zhou Dandan's upper body is not covered...

Even the lower body is only wearing a pair of pink Hello Kitty fat times...

Hmm... this phone is really big...

wrong!

This fat time is really white...

Not right either!

Wow!What's the situation!Yesterday, because I didn't notice for a while, I got into an embarrassing situation of running naked in the living room!

As a result, Zhou Dandan came here today? !

Is this going to develop streaking into a good tradition in their shared house? !

Sounds like...not bad?

Chen Yang only felt his head buzzing, and his thoughts became a mess.

Rationally told myself that there must be a misunderstanding, and from a gentleman's point of view, he should immediately look away.

But the body is very honest and slightly stiffened to show respect...

At this time, Zhou Dandan, who had been swiping his phone all the time, finally noticed something was wrong.

Puzzled, he put down the phone, and then saw Chen Yang standing in front of the door lying on his side, stunned, so that Zhou Dandan was in a trance for a moment.

This is... dazzled? !Why is Chen Yang at home? !

In the next second, Zhou Dandan came to his senses, and put his hands in front of his body suddenly, and at the same time, Huarong screamed palely: "Ahh! You... why are you at home! Are you and Shu Ya Are you all gone?! I looked at your bedroom before, and there is obviously no one in the bedroom!"

Chen Yang was taken aback by Zhou Dandan's scream.

He quickly waved his hands and said, "It's not my fault. I didn't know that you had such a habit when you were alone at home. Well... I have something to do, so I have to go out right away and treat you to dinner later."

With that said, Chen Yang quickly put on his shoes, and ran out of the rented house in a hurry.

Zhou Dandan's face was blushing, and he couldn't help biting his lip when he saw Chen Yang escape.

I wasn't very angry in my heart, I just felt that I was too confused, and I didn't even know whether Chen Yang was still at home.

At this time, Chen Yang had already run out of the rented community, got into a taxi, and rushed to the nearest shopping mall.

What comes to mind is still the things on the wasteland.

Because he wants to truly achieve something in his current world, then the wasteland world is his foundation!

Although he seemed to have great trust in Li Lu, Chen Yang basically did not refuse Li Lu's suggestions before.

But in fact, this is just Chen Yang's strategy.

It's too nonsense to talk about the word 'trust' for someone who has just met for a few days.

But Chen Yang had to explore, experiment, and quickly open up a certain situation in the wasteland world.

Otherwise, I don't know how much unnecessary time will be wasted.

What's more, even if the test failed and Li Lu failed his trust, his loss was nothing more than a batch of cheap food.

The cost to be paid is basically negligible, so of course Chen Yang dared to act more boldly.

If Li Lu and Squirrel D's people are indeed reliable, it is obviously very good news for Chen Yang.

He no longer has to go to the trouble of finding a new agent, looking for a new place to establish a base, and everything can be pushed forward relatively smoothly.

Of course, even if Li Lu and Squirrel D's people are unreliable, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to find new targets.

Anyway, in the wasteland world, as long as there is food, you can have everything!

Regarding the matter of establishing a base in the wasteland world, after Chen Yang came up with the idea, he elevated it to a strategic level.

Once the programmers of the wasteland world are to form their own core technological competitiveness in the current world, then the relative stability of the wasteland world must be guaranteed.

How easy is it to maintain a stable state in an environment like the wasteland?

At the beginning, it was okay to say that a small settlement like Squirrel D basically didn't attract much attention.

However, as time went by, Chen Yang transported more and more food, and it was impossible for Squirrel D to always block the changes in his own situation.
