This Game Is Too Realistic

[Full server announcement: The outpost has acquired a Magnetic Confinement Plasma Processing Machine Tool, with a durability of 99%, and an industrial index of +100]

[Note 1: This machine tool can make metal parts of any geometric shape. Now players can submit relevant drawings to the manager assistant, explain the purpose, and obtain quotations and material requirements. Drawings can be drawn in the game, or electronic files can be submitted through the personal page of the official website. 】

[Note 2: The processing equipment can only change the geometric shape of the material, but not the properties of the material itself, and the cutting process will generate waste. If the steel ingot is to be processed into a steel pipe, it must be pretreated first to be processed into a rod shape or a near rod shape. If you want to process copper ingots into copper wire, please use a wire drawing machine, so as not to occupy valuable machine tool resources. 】

[Note 3: The specification of the input processing material is limited to 1X1X1m, and the material beyond the specification cannot be processed. 】

The announcement was made at six o'clock in the evening.

This point happened to be the peak time for players to go offline.

Whether it was the brick-moving players who went to the northern town to pick up garbage, or the hunter players who went wild in the Elm District, most of them returned to the action camp.

Looking at the announcement that popped up on the VM, the faces of the little players showed surprise expressions in unison.

Magnetic Confinement Plasma Machine Tool?

Still digital?

What kind of sewing monster is this, why have I never heard of it?

It's a coincidence if you have heard of it. In reality, 1 minute can be regarded as 'high constraint' and 'long pulse'. Do you understand what it means? Forget it, you don't understand even if you say it.

Hey, it's still these guys who make games with big brains, and they don't even make drafts when they brag!

Although Chu Guang wants to share this joy with them, the joys and sorrows of people are not the same.

The vast majority of players don't know how hard-won this machine tool is, and it is even more impossible to know how many sacrifices those small players who couldn't go online because of bugs made.

They just thought that Boss Xia probably added another workbench. Now not only can he punch holes for weapons, but he can also inscribe weapons?

Anyway, they are all superfluous functions!

Smarter little players think of the update of the Alpha0.8 version.

The industrial index of the outpost has increased by 100 points from 150 points to 250 points... that is to say, an increase of 166%?

Doesn't that mean that the weapon shop will be updated! ?

Some young players who were relatively criminal and happened to be at the outpost all excitedly took steel ingots and went to the manager's assistant to inquire about prices according to the instructions in the announcement.

Some wanted to make an axe, some wanted to make steel ingots look like rifles, but most ended up cursing and leaving.

Why?

Because it's not worth it!

The start-up fee for a machine tool is as high as 100 silver, and the quotation for processing an ax is as high as 100 silver, which adds up to 200 silver.

With this money, it is enough to buy twenty axes! If it is wholesaled from No. 81 Iron and Steel Plant, it is estimated that there will be some left.

As for the rifle, the price for processing a rifled barrel is 200 silver, and the player must provide the rod-shaped steel by himself.

If not, plasma heat welding is also required for operation, and the quotation will be doubled directly.

With this money, buying two at the weapon store is enough!

But when you think about it, there is no need for an ordinary rifle to use such an advanced machine tool, and the cost is completely uneconomical.

At this time, in No. 81 Steel Plant.

Sitting on the small bench, [Ya'er, I want to use the toilet rope] touched his chin with one hand and held the steel ingot with the other. After staring at it for a long time, he held back a word.

I speculate that the machine tool should be used to make production tools!

His good friend [Ward's beriberi who Lai Wen] rolled his eyes.

You don't need to say that! Take the tens of millions of CNC machine tools in the laboratory to mill seamless steel pipes. You can see if your boss hammers you or not, and you're done.

Brother Suo: Uh...I feel like he's going to be so scared that he calls the police and sends me in.

Brother Levin: The cost of using this machine tool is a bit high. I feel that it is not prepared for individual players at all. The start-up fee alone is 100 silver coins. Unless it is a company sponsored by the shelter, the average self-employed person is enough!

Brother Suo: That's not necessarily true, Brother Mosquito must be enough!

Brother Levin: He won't say anything, that guy said punishment to everyone who saw it. By the way, how much money is there in our account?

Brother Suo: 4000 silver... The newcomers came in and bought a lot of axes and arrows before, what? Are you going to pay dividends?

Brother Levin: Splitting ghosts! This money is enough to divide wool. I plan to get out the thermal piercer. Those parts that couldn't be made before, should be able to be processed with this machine tool. When there are piercing machines machine, we can make seamless steel pipes!

Hearing this, Brother Suo's eyes lit up immediately.

Cow, brother! Let's go together!

Brother Levin rolled his eyes: Don't be silly, it will be offline in a while, you go get the blueprint and upload it, let's get a simpler one, I guess it shouldn't be too expensive.

Brother Suo laughed.

Okay brother, I just made this after I finished my design!

...

While Brother Levin and Brother Suo were discussing how to make the seamless steel pipe industry bigger and stronger, and create brilliance on the wasteland, Xiao Qi raised the camera to look at the third floor of the nursing home not far away. Xiang Chu Guang, who was standing aside, whispered.

Master, isn't the price you set too expensive?

At least a dozen people made inquiries just now, but when they heard that the start-up fee was 100 silver coins, they were immediately frightened and turned around and left.

It costs 100 silver to start the machine, this is money grabbing!

Hearing Xiaoqi's suggestion, Chu Guang didn't take it seriously.

It's not expensive at all, I even think it's cheap. They think it's expensive just because they don't have a deep understanding of the version, which means that they are not our target customers at all. If there is no threshold at all, God knows what blueprints they will make Come here, do you want to make a bunch of broken javelins and rotten axes out of that thing?

Find Boss Xia for this kind of thing!

The two workbenches at her place, one DIY and the other picked up, can make this stuff.

Xiao Qi clicked on the camera with a vague understanding, as if she understood, but she didn't seem to understand. From its point of view, should it not be allowed to be used to produce those things, and it should be directly stipulated that they should not be used?

Why go around in a circle and use threshold to limit.

Chu Guang does not intend to explain to AI his intention to do so, and the difference between human behavior logic and AI algorithm.

How to say.

Chu Guang does not object to players playing some weird ideas, but he needs to pass the restrictions of the rules to let players consider whether it is worthwhile to do so before using their creativity.

As Xiaoqi himself said, this machine tool is not used to produce those crude things at all.

Taking the AK47 he made earlier as an example, 6 kilograms of steel made 3 kilograms of workpieces, half of which were cut into strange-shaped steel scraps, and most likely they could only be sent to the steel factory for re-melting.

In addition, there are also the consumed electric energy and the inert gas that is naturally lost during use. These are all visible costs, not to mention the invisible hidden costs.

The real purpose of this thing is to produce tools for production, or process some high-tech equipment with high-tech added value if materials are available.

The latter is not considered for the time being, and the former is the main goal at this stage.

Chu Guang planned to take it step by step, let his little players get a thermal piercer first, and solve the problem of the barrel.

Leaving aside the complex technologies of three-roll continuous rolling and centering straightening, a piercing machine is sufficient for the simple production of seamless steel pipes.

Whether it can be produced in batches, efficiently, and with guaranteed quality and quantity is a matter for later. You must have the ability to produce before you can find ways to optimize it.

For a long time to come, seamless steel pipes will become the most important pillar industry of No. 404 Vault.

As for the craft of the receiver.

Chu Guang hesitated for a while between the milling receiver and the punching receiver, and finally chose the latter.

Although the milling casing is more modern and has higher precision, the disadvantages are also obvious. It not only wastes materials, but also requires high personnel and equipment, and the production efficiency is even lower.

For example, the AK47 he made with a machine tool before was strictly speaking a milling receiver, and even the barrel and the rifling in the barrel were cut out by a single-atom knife.

The stamping casing is different. Except for the trouble of making molds, the entire production process has almost no technical content, and the efficiency of mass production is particularly high.

The only disadvantage is poor precision, but compared to its two advantages of cheapness and durability, this disadvantage is not a disadvantage at all, at most it is a small flaw.

After all, in the environment of the wasteland, the average combat distance is less than 100 meters. No matter how accurate the shooting is, it is not as fast and steady as shooting.

Based on the stamping process, Chu Guang intends to simply imitate the receiver of the AK and design a 7mm rifle.

Compared with the upper and lower receiver design and the seven-shot shoot lock of the AR series rifles, the U-shaped receiver and the two-shot shoot lock design of the AK are more than twice as difficult to produce, and the mold can even be directly punched with a whole piece of steel come out.

What is the concept of being able to punch out a whole piece of steel?

It can be mass-produced like ink paper under a printer, and it can be used with a barrel and a solid wood stock, which perfectly meets the combat needs in the wasteland environment.

It is not without reason that this thing sells well in the third world.

Especially in a place where human life is not valuable, the cheaper the gun, the better.

How wasteful would it be to die?

...

the next day.

The entrance of the weapon store was crowded with people. Many young players came back from the action camp last night, waiting for the weapon store to open.

The yawning Boss Xia had long been accustomed to this.

Opening the store door on time as usual, she took out the two samples that Chu Guang asked her to make yesterday, and hung them on the semi-open window.

Those were two rifles made of solid wood and pure steel.

One of them has a compact layout, the stock and magazine are standard assault rifle shapes, the top rail can be installed with sights, and the grip can be installed under the barrel.

The other has a significantly longer barrel and receiver, and the magazine embedded in the gun body only shows a triangular outline, which looks slightly wider.

What both of them have in common is that they both have a rough appearance and majestic lines, and their appearance is extremely similar, like a good brother coming off an assembly line. Not only are the appearances similar, but the names of the two guns are also very similar. The long one is called LD-47s, and the short one is called LD-47.

In addition, they have a very coquettish nickname——

sickle!

Fuck, the weapon shop has a new one today! Brother Fang is awesome!

I understand this! LD-47s should be snipers!

Understood! It's 98K!

98k ghosts! It's obviously a sniper!

Wait, that short one...how come the more I look at it, the more it looks like AK?

Be more confident, get rid of doubts, this operator is lazy again, probably copied CF's skin directly!

The price of the two guns is very cheap, the long one is 250 silver coins, and the short one is 200 silver coins, which is only twice as expensive as the iron-barrel rifle!

Now as long as it is an old player, who doesn't have two hundred silver coins in his pocket? Especially in the match against the legion, the basic income was 150 silver coins!

Many people are still hesitating, but Tail, who has quick eyes and quick hands, has already made a move.

Boss lady! Give me a fix! I want the one with the long tail! Give Sisi the short one.

Glancing at the short-haired female player, Xia Yan yawned and uttered a few words.

Samples, not for sale. Want to buy, wait two days.

Hearing this mandarin, which was neither proficient nor standard, the players around were instantly stunned.

Me?

The proprietress not only changed her legs, but also updated her voice package!

Epic level enhancement!

Just as there was commotion in front of the weapons store, the industrial area to the south was equally lively.

As soon as many self-employed self-employed young gamers went online, they were about to get on the truck and go to the action camp to go to the market, when a bunch of orders popped up on the task bar of the VM.

Among them, some require the production of wooden butts, and some require the production of grips, which are not difficult, and it can even be said to have hands.

There are a little more difficult ones that require grinding lenses and making optical sights. The types can be said to be varied.

These tasks have one thing in common, that is, the rewards are quite generous, and due to the update of the Alpha 0.8 version, there is an additional 10% reward bonus for orders!

In addition, the first 100 orders of various products will also have additional contribution point rewards and regional reputation.

If this is missed or human? !

With such a generous reward, many small players who mainly focus on life professions instantly became overwhelmed. One or two picked up tools one after another and went to work in their own small workshops, wishing to weld their butts to the bench.

Of course, compared to those self-employed people who do manual work, what is really cool is a big producer who invests in a refuge.

Early in the morning, the No. 81 Iron and Steel Plant of the outpost received an exclusive order - [produce 100 receivers and 100 barrels for the outpost]

This order has clear requirements for the material, specification, size and even processing accuracy of the product, making production difficult.

However, this is not important!

The important thing is that the wise and mighty manager not only offered a generous price of 4,000 silver coins, but also paid 50% of the order in advance as an advance payment.

Suo and Levin were dizzy with the sudden windfall.

Although the money is placed in the business account, it is still money!

Stimulated by the order, the two who were a little hesitant at first took a deposit of 4,000 silver coins and a large amount of steel in the inventory, went to the manager's assistant to order a large number of parts, and prepared to do a big job. The punching machine for the barrel and the stamping die for making the receiver are completed.

In addition, the two of them also poured in the 2,000 silver coins that they had just received as an advance payment, which was used to issue scavenging tasks and order raw materials needed for production.

Although there was not a cent left in the account of the steel factory, the two of them didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all, but felt that the future could be expected.

On the surface, in order to complete this order, not only did they not make any money, but they also spent money in their pockets.

But can we just look at the surface of the problem?

Of course not!

The money spent did not disappear, but changed to a more advanced form and stayed with them forever.

With the dies for the punching machine and the stamping casing, they will be able to complete more orders, further reduce the production cost, further improve the efficiency, and the snowball will completely roll.

This wave is far from a loss.

It's just a win, okay?

Coincidentally, as the major shareholder of the steel plant, the wise and powerful manager also thinks so.

For Chu Guang, whether money or not is a trivial matter, the key is that such a wave of operations not only greatly increased the production capacity of the steel plant, but also reduced the logistical pressure of the outpost.

And what he paid was only a few thousand Happy Beans.

This wave is probably not a win.

It should be said to be a win-win situation!

After all, he won twice.

In addition to the gun itself, there are wooden butts, triangular bayonets, magazine drums, bipods, optical sights and other accessories. Chu Guang intends to put them all together.

In the future, just by selling accessories and bullets, a lot of silver coins can be recovered, and the excess production capacity can even be dumped to the surrounding survivors, and even reversely exported to Honghe Town and Boulder City.

Chu Guang was sure that as long as his weapons were sold cheap enough, those mercenaries and caravan guards who could not afford expensive weapons would love him to death.

However... at that time, it will definitely not work to use game currency as currency.

Although this kind of game currency produced in the pre-war era has excellent production technology and certain anti-counterfeiting capabilities, its disadvantages are also obvious, that is, the quantity is limited.

Players can use electronic currency, but those wastelanders don't recognize what they can't see, and they don't even believe in paper money.

Besides, Chu Guang was not sure whether the merchant named Sun Shiqi had kept something, for example, he secretly hid a bag of coins and did not sell them to himself.

This kind of thing is not impossible.

Looking at the outpost industrial zone, which was in full swing and bustling again, Chu Guang silently made up his mind.

The second-generation currency must be launched as soon as possible!

This work must be completed before the end of winter.

Once the winter is over, the trade in the northern suburbs of Qingquan City will be active again. And by that time, players will also usher in a more open, broader, and more challenging world.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind, pulling Chu Guang's thoughts from afar back to the present.

Fang Chang, who was fully armed, nodded slightly, and said respectfully: My dear manager, we are ready. When will we start?

Standing up from the chair, Chu Guang took hold of the war hammer that was placed aside, and hung it on his back.

Now.
