Late at night.
Old Luca sent a message, reporting today's income to Chu Guang.
Among them, 2000CR is a fixed salary. Since the Pioneer's logistics department purchased value-added services that doubled its production capacity, a total of 255 tons of garbage was collected. The commission is 1275CR, which adds up to 3275CR!
Then there is the business income from breakfast, dinner and late night snacks. This additional income actually reached 700CR!
Including the daily meal subsidy of 600CR, deducting the 150CR spent on purchasing supplies and ingredients, today's balance reached 4425CR.
As for the cost, the task reward for every 100 kilograms of garbage is one silver coin, which is equivalent to 2550 silver.
Oh, by the way, there are also 2550 activity points.
Evenly distributed among 200 people, the per capita income is still a little low, which should be brought down by some intelligence players.
I hope the young players will continue their efforts and create greater glories!
"Including the 1,200 left over from yesterday's half-day, the two-day income totals 5,625! Good guy, that's enough to buy 18 assault rifles!"
When his arsenal was at its highest before, there were not so many weapons.
Chu Guang could not wait to convert all the money he saved into guns right now, and then hang a 400 silver coin gun in the weapon shop, and then open an event "For expansion pack exclusive weapons, 1 event point can be used to deduct 5 silver coins, and the maximum can be used to deduct 5 silver coins."
50% off the total price.”
I believe that when the first wave of players comes back, they will jump with excitement!
I’m sure they will work even harder next time I go there!
Chu Guang felt that he had understood the game promotion activities of major manufacturers, and it was really worthwhile for him to take so many talents.
Leaning on the computer chair, Chu Guang held the back of his head with his hands, looking at the ceiling and thinking.
"Tomorrow is the last day before the shift change. New players will come online the day after tomorrow, and the handover between the two groups will officially begin."
"50 old players bring 150 new players... I hope there won't be any trouble."
or……
Just go there in person.
There are Xiaoqi, Xia Yan, Xiaoyu, and so many old players here at the base.
It shouldn’t be a big problem!
Just when Chu Guang closed the text document and played a game of "Stars" to relax, on the Pioneer ten kilometers away, Li De from the logistics department was staring at the plate on the table in a daze.
"This...is Blue Jacket's pie?"
His secretary Wang Jie replied.
"It's steamed buns."
"What about this one? The one with transparent skin?"
"It's also a steamed bun...I heard it's a soup dumpling. It's better to eat it while it's hot and dipped in vinegar."
"Where's this flat one? Boiled buns?"
"Well, I heard these are called dumplings."
"???"
Weird food.
In the ideal city, fat and protein would not be wrapped in carbohydrates in such a roundabout way.
"Is this quite powerful?"
Using a wooden telescope to look at the rows of tree trunks shot through a hundred meters away, Chu Guang couldn't help but have a hint of surprise written on his face.
This power feels much stronger than the 7mm iron tube rifle Lister sold him.
Is it really a counterfeit?
"Didn't you tell me that bigger is better? Anyway, the receiver is so thick. I thought it would be a pity not to use it, so I simply increased the length of the cartridge case and the amount of powder. Now it uses 7x70mm rifle bullets, which is longer than before.
It's 20mm," Xia Yan stood beside him with a cane. He looked at him teasingly, "Is this big enough?"
"It's big enough," Chu Guang said with emotion, "but the hit rate is a bit touching."
But it doesn't really matter.
These guards are not originally on the front line, so there is no need to let them hit the target 100m away, just let the players do it.
Fire a warning shot in the sky, as long as it's loud enough!
If he hadn't been worried about clogging the receiver, he would have even wanted to replace the smokeless gunpowder with the lower-cost black gunpowder, which was not only loud enough but also smoked, and looked cool.
It is said that there have been a lot of professional life players recruited recently, and everyone’s life has become a bit Buddhist. In the next version, Chu Guang plans to recruit more B club players to come in and pick up trash.
Recruit some P club players to come in and fight.
"It's probably a problem with the warhead material and barrel. It's fine within 50m, but the ballistic spread is a bit large outside 100m. I'll think about how to solve this problem..." Seeing Chu Guang looking at him with a strange expression, Xia Yan was slightly stunned.
Next, "Is there something on my face?"
"No, it's quite clean." Looking at Xia Yan who was confused, Chu Guang nodded with a smile, "I just think that you have been a lot more diligent recently, and you actually took the initiative to think about it for me. As your boss, I
Very pleased.”
"Why are you thinking about it? Don't be too sentimental!" Xia Yan blushed, glared at him fiercely, and trudged away on crutches.
Chu Guang smiled and ignored her. After pondering his expression for a while, he walked straight out of the west door and found the wrench squatting in the trench.
Climbing out of the trench, Wrench looked at the manager with a guilty look on his face, lowered his head, and wanted to explain with a red face.
"Sir, I..."
"Keep your head up! Hold your chest high, you are the guards of the outpost and the defenders of order and justice."
After scolding and looking at the guard captain who stood at attention again and raised his head, Chu Guang nodded in approval.
After a pause, he continued.
"The gun has just been given to you. It's normal to miss the first shot. You will naturally get the feel for it after practicing a few more times. I have seen your training, so there is no need to blame yourself, but remember not to relax!"
Wrench said quickly.
"My subordinates dare not!"
Chu Guang nodded, patted the snow off his shoulders, looked at his firm eyes and continued.
"Tomorrow, I will take you on a long trip. This will be your first mission. You are the captain of the guard. Remember to watch and learn more."
"In addition, you will go to the warehouse later and ask the warehouse manager to pick up 14 VMs and distribute them to your other brothers. You should know how to use them, so I don't need to explain them more."
Including the wrench currently worn on his arm, a total of 15 VMs are specially designed for guards that Chu Guang asked Xiao Qi to help edit. They can directly identify the player's ID with the help of the map and report violations directly to Chu Guang.
If violations are confirmed, Chu Guang will impose sanctions based on the facts.
Although the current closed beta players in the server are relatively friendly, in the future when there are more people, various problems will always arise.
Guns can only deter low-level newcomers and vassal refugees. Higher-level players still have to rely on authority to intimidate them.
Wrench said with great enthusiasm.
"yes!"
…
The fourth day after the Alpha0.7 version went online.
Early in the morning, Wanwan led 15 guards from the outpost and lined up neatly at the north gate.
Practicing for several days in a row is still somewhat effective.
Not to mention how strong the combat effectiveness is, at least the stance and formation look the same, no longer crooked and lazy.
The daily meals include fish and meat, and they are full of potato chips and green wheat. The look on their faces is much better than when they first came out of the dungeon of the looters.
Lu Yang, who came from the Pioneer to escort the workers to the operation camp for shift change, glanced at the guards with rifles on their backs, standing in a row, in surprise.
These people were poorly equipped, carrying heavy rifles and packed luggage on their backs, and wearing coats made of mutated reindeer fur. It could only be said that their clothing was barely uniform.
The only high-tech equipment they have on their bodies is probably the vital sign monitor worn on their arm, which is a common VM in shelters.
What is surprising, however, is their discipline.
However, Lu Yang always felt that they did not look like people from the shelter, but more like refugees in the wasteland. Most of the blue-coated people in the shelter looked delicate and clean, and their appearance was more similar to that of middle-level and above-level employees in the company, and they did not look very similar.
Looks like he can endure hardship.
However, these people are different. One look at their faces shows that they have suffered a lot.
While Lu Yang was thinking about something, the two Marines behind him were switching on the communication channel.
"What did you have for breakfast?"
"I went to Blue Jacket and bought two buns."
"Holy shit? What time did you get down?"
"Five o'clock."
"Awesome!"
Lu Yang coughed and scolded in the communication channel.
"Quiet."
The two Marines immediately shut up and turned off the microphone.
At this time, Wrench met Lu Yang's eyes, walked over with his rifle on his back, stood at attention and gave a neat military salute.
"The administrator asked me to wait for you here. He will bring people up at eight o'clock sharp. Before that, he needs some time to mobilize his residents."
Lu Yang looked at him, nodded, and said.
"I understand, don't worry."
The departure time he and Chu Guang agreed upon was eight o'clock in the morning.
However, the situation on the road today was relatively smooth, and he and his men arrived at their destination half an hour earlier than expected.
"Please allow me to take you to the reception room to rest for a while."
Lu Yang shook his head and declined politely.
"No need, I'll just wait here."
Wearing power armor and waiting anywhere are actually the same.
Anyway, no matter how heavy the snow was blowing outside, it couldn't hit him, let alone feel the slightest bit of cold.
Wrench nodded, did not insist anymore, turned around and returned to the queue, standing with the brothers in the guard.
At this moment, the second underground floor of the shelter was extremely busy.
The annual orientation meeting is now at its peak.
One by one, the little players in blue coats, with eyes as big as copper bells, came out of their rooms and followed the instructions of the broadcast to the square in front of the elevator on the B2 floor.
The confused emotions resonated among the crowd, and almost everyone could not believe their eyes. Everything in front of them was real.
But the fact is right in front of them!
This is an almost completely real world!
And they are all standing here in the form of living people, breathing the air here, listening to the loud voices in their ears, and feeling the blood surging in their chests.
Dog planning is not a lie!
"Wasteland OL"
It’s absolutely amazing!
"Holy shit, shit, shit!"
"Is this Vault 404?!"
"Gee! This wall is so hard! No model can pass through it, and these textures are so damn real!"
"Hahahahahahaha, awesome, I never thought that I would actually play a fully immersive virtual reality game in my lifetime! Guys, wait, I will stand on my head and have diarrhea when I get offline!"
"Brother, remember to start the live broadcast!"
"Need any help? I'll send you a bottle of fish oil!"
"Damn, are you serious?"
It’s almost the same as the previous waves of new people entering the game.
The newbies standing in the square in front of the elevator on the B2 floor were dancing excitedly, touching left and right, looking around, bumping into the wall, and jumping in place, as if they were holding some kind of grand ceremony.
Dozens of veteran players who had not grabbed tickets for the expansion pack stood aside to comment and miss their lost youth and past.
Chu Guang is also observing these players and is ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
But what made him quite satisfied was that there seemed to be no trousers-taker among the players who came in this time.
It seems that this batch of newbies are more reserved.
Of course, it is also possible that through the advice of veteran players on the forum, these newcomers are relatively familiar with the basic settings of this game and have already reached the level of cloud players before entering the game.
For example, each person in Wasteland OL can only create one account. This account will accompany them from the closed beta to the open beta and cannot be canceled. After quitting the game, the operator will take back the account and retain the right to re-issue the account to others.
At this time, Chu Guang happened to see a young player in the crowd suddenly let out a "Gah" sound and fell backwards to the ground.
After being slightly stunned, Chu Guang whispered.
"Xiao Qi."
Xiao Qi, who was following Chu Guang, raised her camera.
"What's the matter? Master."
Chu Guang said thoughtfully as his eyes stayed on the system interface that only he could see.
"Will being too excited cause disconnection?"
Xiaoqi: "Well, generally speaking it won't happen, but it's not that absolute. For example, if the clone body goes into physiological shock due to being too excited, the connection between the conscious body will naturally be interrupted... But this probability is really
It’s too young, will anyone really be so excited that they go into shock?”
Chu Guang: "..."
Physical shock is okay.
Chu Guang glanced at the player list to see which unlucky guy it was, but when he saw the name, he was slightly stunned.
Quit smoking?
All right.
This guy's words are understandable. 80 points is considered quite satisfactory. He's stuck on the edge of the second grade. He actually had to draw so many versions before entering.
But having said that, what should I do if I take off the helmet and continue to be excited?
Will he be shocked even in reality...
Chu Guang suddenly became worried about him.
not far away.
Tails, with his arms folded, shook his head in disappointment, and said in an old-fashioned way: "Tsk, this new generation is no good, they are all human beings!"
Si Si glanced at her sideways: "Human beings can't satisfy you anymore?"
Tails said dissatisfied: "I mean, aren't there more fantasy creatures? For example, skeletons, slimes or tentacle monsters! By the way, if the character can be customized, I want to be a tentacle monster.
.hand!"
Sisi sighed.
"As expected of Awei."
I always feel like I’ve seen a side of myself that I don’t usually see.
…
At the same time, on the surface.
Teng Teng was busy rummaging around in the hut.
Crow Crow walked into the door, glanced around, and finally found Teng Teng with his head buried in a box, rummaging for something next to a wooden machine.
"Teng Teng! We are about to leave... Huh? What is this piece of cloth?"
Looking at the soft and light piece of cloth on the table, Yayao took it in his hand with a curious look on his face.
Teng Teng turned around, his face flushed, and he rushed forward and snatched it away.
"Are you changing, changing...too much?"
Crow Crow: "?"
"Anyway, I haven't finished this yet! Wait until I finish it. Ah, by the way, the mission, the manager asked me to bring some clothes over... Please help me get some quickly."
Looking at Teng Teng who turned around and went back to rummage through the boxes, Crow Crow tilted his head in confusion, but still went up to help.
During the chat, Crow Crow learned that these clothes were made of devil's silk.
Teng Teng has been studying how to weave devil's silk into cloth these days. Some time ago, the silk reeling and weaving techniques finally achieved certain results.
Although the foot-operated loom is a bit backward, the weaving steps are usable. This kind of cloth made of devil's silk is not very warm, but it is strong enough.
Ordinary steel scissors can't cut it, you have to use the mouthparts of the devil moth.
Teng Teng used these silk fabrics to make a dozen T-shirts, but they looked like they could only be worn as underwear.
"By the way, why do you need to bring this?"
“I heard you can redeem rewards!”
"Ah? Really?"
Crow Crow's mind was a little moved.
She happened to pick some beautiful mushrooms yesterday, and they were non-poisonous ones.
"Wait for me! I'll go back and get something!"
"Ah, is it too late for you to go back and get your things now?"
"Wait for me! Soon!"
After going back and forth like this, when the two of them rushed to the north gate in a hurry, the team was already about to set off.
"Master Manager! The clothes I have made in the past few days... have you seen enough?" Out of breath from running, Teng Teng picked up the clothes in his hands and asked sheepishly.
Chu Guang was not picky about the quality of clothes. After all, he didn't know what kind of products the crew members of the Pioneer liked.
It’s great to be able to prepare these in such a short period of time.
After all, it is an attempt.
Chu Guang nodded approvingly and said.
"Yes, thank you for your hard work."
Teng Teng smiled shyly.
Just now, her VM received a reminder that the task was completed, and she was rewarded with 100 activity points.
At the same time, the next task is also triggered immediately
[Task: Sell clothes woven from devil silk to the crew of the Pioneer.]
[Reward: Every 1 CR obtained can be exchanged for 1 silver coin and 1 activity point. 】
Looking at the taskbar, Teng Teng's eyes were shining.
Unexpectedly, I gained event points before going to the new map, and also unlocked tasks related to the new map.
This wave is simply making a lot of money!
…
Due to the accidental death of Brother Maka, only 199 players went to change shifts this time.
But it doesn't matter. When the time comes, Chu Guang will randomly think of a reason and choose the player who has picked up the most trash in the past three days to stay and do another round.
After all players have completed a round, he will tally up the collection volume of all players within three days, and adjust the rules of the expansion pack, changing the task distribution method of equal exposure to rain and dew to centralized registration and merit-based admission.
In this way, it will not only improve the efficiency of picking up garbage, but also allow players who are not so interested in picking up garbage to choose to engage in other more interesting jobs.
Such as kneading dough and making dumplings, or setting up a stall to sell barbecue.
As long as you can help Shelter 404 earn "foreign exchange", you can get event points.
This wave of Chu Guang calls it light industrial wool harvesting!
As long as you can buy that industrial motherboard back, it will be worth the effort.
By the way, Yaya came to him with banknotes to exchange for money. In addition to giving her silver coins, Chu Guang also replenished her with corresponding activity points later.
Looking at the scattered players, Chu Guang raised his voice and shouted with a loud voice.
"Everyone gather."
"Our allies are waiting for us to come to support them. Don't let them wait too long."
"Now, let's go!"
The group of people set out on the road in great force, and the queue was longer than the first time they went there.
Three-quarters of the nearly two hundred people in the team are newcomers. These people have not yet recovered from their excitement and want to touch everything they see along the way.
In reality, many of them haven't even seen the shadow of snow yet, but in this game, it's already snowing heavily!
Fortunately, it's snowing heavily.
If it were in other seasons, there would be mutated cockroaches or rats on the road, as well as flies as big as basins and hyenas with fangs exposed.
If you touch casually, it's a small matter if you lose your arm, but if you lose your life, it's a huge loss.
Looking at these not very smart blue coats, the two Marines following Captain Lu looked at each other.
"Are these people okay?"
"Why do I feel so stupid..."
"Compared with the previous wave of people, they really don't look very smart."
Lu Yang was actually a little confused, but he didn't think much about it.
Although he had not personally seen the work enthusiasm of those in blue coats, he had heard about it from colleagues in the logistics department.
Those people worked as if they were working hard and wanted to scrape the dirt off the ground.
Maybe this is the manifestation of being overly optimistic.
It doesn't matter whether they are smart or not, as long as they can do their job well.
The whole journey was silent.
The group of people arrived at the operation camp just before ten o'clock. The guards and players were on standby in the center of the camp. Chu Guang met old Luca here.
Seeing his master, Old Luca came up to him with excitement and announced the good news.
"Sir, we made a full 4530CRCR all day yesterday!"
It’s actually 105CR more than yesterday?
Chu Guang looked at him in surprise.
"so much?"
Old Luca nodded excitedly.
"Yes, sir, that's so much! Thanks to your idea, those steamed buns, dumplings and other snacks have contributed at least 800CR! Those people in gray coats will buy a lot of them at once and take them back! Especially this morning
, even their section chief came to buy buns from us!"
That Li De?
Chu Guang really couldn't imagine that that guy would be interested in their snacks, let alone that he would be so generous.
but……
After all, the human stomach has its limits.
Expecting to make a fortune from this small business is still a bit difficult after all.
But thinking optimistically, I made nearly 10,000 CR in 3 days, which is undoubtedly a good sign.
Maybe by then no one will have to die, and maybe one hundred thousand can be earned?
Anyway, give it a try.
At this moment, Witte from the Logistics Section walked towards the two of them.
"Are you the manager of Vault 404?"
Chu Guang looked at him and nodded.
"It's me, who are you?"
Werther said with a friendly smile.
"My name is Witte, and I work in the logistics department. I am mainly responsible for the work arrangements of the workers! Our section chief misses you very much, and he asked me to say hello to you on his behalf."
Chu Guang also smiled friendly.
"Please also bring my regards to him. Just say that his old friend misses him very much."
Werther smiled and continued.
"I will! There is one more thing I have to inform you about the new collection site."
While he was talking, the siren suddenly sounded on the Pioneer not far away.
Hearing the long siren, the players in the camp showed surprised expressions on their faces.
"What happened?!"
"Did it trigger the plot??"
"Stimulate!"
The expressions on the faces of the three people were all stunned.
Chu Guang was the first to come to his senses and asked Witte.
"What happened?"
"Please wait...I'm asking."
Not paying attention to the expression on Chu Guang's face, Witte put his hand on the headset and turned his face to get in touch with his colleagues in the logistics department.
Gradually, his expression became serious.
After hanging up the communication, he looked at Chu Guang, took a deep breath and said.
"About 6 kilometers away from us, in the forest to the northwest of us, there is a group of unidentified armed forces heading straight towards us. There are many of them and they are well-armed and well-equipped. They don't look like refugees in the wasteland."
Chu Guang said seriously: "Anyone who is still running around outside in this damn weather must not be a good person! Do you need me to send someone to investigate ahead?"
Witte quickly waved his hand and said: "No, no, our people have already gone. In fact, we judged this too, their purpose is too clear, they are obviously coming for us!"
After a pause, Werther continued with an ugly expression.
"Hate to say it, but we might be in trouble." -
(Thanks to book friend "D-dayzzt_Maxs" and other alliance leaders for the rewards)
(I took some medicine yesterday and slept for a long time. I almost thought I had traveled through time, but I woke up. It’s the beginning of the month. Please give me a ticket. Please!)
