Chapter 143 The answer is the chef?!

  

 Hang up Li De's call, Chu Guang felt that it was really hard for him.

 The neighbor next door is heading west for a great ideal. Not only does his face shine with the confidence and faith of a civilized man, but he is also materially rich and can eat a bowl of three meals a day.

On my side, I not only have to plan every resource carefully, but I also have to find ways to make the players happy with the limited supplies.

No matter how tight life is, if he occasionally gets something good, he will use it to boost everyone's morale.

That’s it. There are still children on the forum who are thinking about his two bricks for building walls and analyzing how to prevent the “middlemen” from making the difference.

 Won’t it hurt to touch your conscience?

The weak have no choice. In fact, Chu Guang knew very well that even with a shelter as a bargaining chip, he and the people on the Pioneer had very little room for negotiation.

Especially that Li De, who is much harder to fool than their Captain Lu, and the bottom line is even more elusive, leaving him no opportunity to take advantage of it.

 But there was no other way, and Chu Guang had no choice.

It is rare to meet a group of rich people on an outing. It just so happens that these people admit that they are wearing blue coats. No matter how difficult it is to pull out the wool, they have to bite the bullet.

 After all, we are friends this time. What if a jackal comes next time?

 At that time, even if you cannot win, you will have no choice but to bite the bullet and fight.

Not surprisingly, today’s labor force should be able to exchange for 1200R. Including the 600R for meal subsidy, the total is 1800R, which can be exchanged for 6 assault rifles.

These people were very kind. They said it would be 600R for a day. Even if he didn’t have breakfast at their place, they gave him the money.

After the cooperation ends, the weapon shop will have some new equipment in the 300 silver coin and 400 silver coin tiers, including automatic rifles and submachine guns, as well as modified sights, which can be equipped for players who have reached levels 6 to 8.

 For a better tomorrow and new version.

 Hope his little players will work hard!

 …

Before talking to Li De on the phone, Chu Guang took two young players of the perception system to find the signal tower mentioned in "Guard Diary" and "Bloody Hand Diary" near the mutant lair, and found that the device had simply tripped.

Although the parts are somewhat aged, they are not completely broken.

The backup power supply still had half of its power, so he turned the switch back on without saying a word, and the signal tower immediately restored power.

 Looking at the signal on the vm that was full again, Chu Guang showed a smile on his face.

 The signal coverage has been directly expanded to 10 kilometers away, and now the entire northern suburbs of Qingquan City is covered.

 Now his little players no longer have to worry about poor VM signals.

As long as they are not buried under the ruins or have gone too far, I can keep track of their situation anytime and anywhere and issue tasks to them.

very nice.

 After finishing the phone call with Li De, Chu Guang then borrowed the office phone number to contact Old Luca.

 Old Luca on the other end of the phone respectfully reported today's situation to him.

"Sir, I followed your instructions and purchased 100 kilograms of potatoes, 100 kilograms of corn, and some salt, soy sauce, pepper and other condiments with a meal supplement of 600R. However, Li De just told me that if I use their

The truck will help us transport the things, and we will be charged a shipping fee of 1R per 100 kilograms..."

 Good guy.

 This is just a matter of petty emotion.

Chu Guang smiled and said, "It's okay, we don't need their car."

 There are now 10 caravans in the outpost and hundreds of strength players. Isn’t it easy to pull dozens of tons of cargo back?

 Shifts change every three days. When the people on this side pass by, the people on the other side will just pull the supplies back.

 As for the supplies exchanged today, they are mainly used as food for the players.

Although they brought some potato chips, green wheat and dried meat that were packed in the warehouse when they went there, the food was only enough for a few days and would not last long. There will be players who will change shifts with them later, so there will be no need to eat anymore.

I brought dry food with me.

 Luca: "Sir, I found that starch... seems to be cheaper? 1R can be exchanged for one kilogram, and it looks like it can be eaten."

Chu Guang sighed and said: "If you only eat carbohydrates, you won't be able to get rid of it. That stuff is not for eating."

Old Luca doesn’t quite understand. In his concept, being well fed is a blessing, and it doesn’t matter what he eats. But since the master has said so, he naturally can’t talk back.

"Yes... By the way, sir, I noticed those people coming from the east. They seem to be very interested in what we eat, and are even willing to spend money to buy it."

“Oh?” Chu Guang asked with interest, “Have they come to buy food from you?”

 Luca nodded and said.

"Yes. I wasn't sure how much I should sell them, but I didn't want to get into trouble, so I gave them one portion. I charged 1R for each portion of mashed potato and fish soup."

Chu Guang touched his chin and said.

“Can you estimate the approximate cost of one serving...not counting labor, but only counting materials.”

Luca: "It's not expensive. The mashed potato chips only cost two or three copper coins. The fish soup is cheaper, only two copper coins. However, the fish we brought over is almost finished, and we will probably make other dishes tomorrow."

"If those people come back tomorrow, you can sell them 2R and 4R price packages. 2R comes with a 200-gram mashed potato, and 4R comes with a meat dish in addition to the mashed potatoes... Forget it, I still haven't decided on the recipe.

You let the professional cooking players figure out what to eat every day, and I will send them a task later. Anyway, you can set the price according to the two standards I mentioned."

 Luca said respectfully.

 “As you command, my lord.”

 …

 Official website:

Xiaoyu warmly reminds you: Because the administrator repaired the antenna of the shelter, the signal coverage of the outpost has now been expanded to ten kilometers.

Today’s recommended recipe: meat-flavored mashed potatoes and pine nut stewed fish soup.

Every time everyone logs off, the forum becomes very lively.

Fang Chang: "I'm back! Let me talk about the conclusion first. The new areas unlocked in the expansion are almost exactly the same as those shown in the promotion!"

The man under the knife said: "Yes, I testify! In other games, we look for the same between the actual game screen and the promotional screen, but here we look for the difference between the two... The key is that I can't find it! Can you understand that?

Does it feel like you have stepped into a game?"

 Mole on the run in the canyon: "Gan! I don't understand!!! I also want to move bricks to the new map. T.T"

Lao Bai: “One thing to say, the high-tech brick-moving experience is quite fun. It’s a little better than the experience of moving bricks near the outpost. (baring teeth)”

 Battlefield Atmosphere Team: "Brother, tell me quickly! What is the process over there?"

Fang Chang: "Let me tell you, we first followed the Pioneer people to the mobile camp they built for us, and lived in a small single room on the construction site on the upper and lower floors. Then Brother Scrambled Egg made us a meal after a long time.

Lunch, there’s nothing to talk about. The highlight is the afternoon! We followed the two power armors to the abandoned town in the north!"

Fang Chang: "It is probably a place similar to the urban-rural fringe. The building density is lower than that near Linghu Wetland Park. It is dominated by a large number of single-family houses and a small number of high-rise buildings. We have been deep into the urban area for nearly eight years.

About 100 meters away, we came to an abandoned community hospital. Here is a brand new map! We have never gone so far when we were scavenging before!"

Fang Chang: "There was thick dust on the floor in the hospital. I briefly explored the first floor and found that the place had been ransacked, more than once. I was not sure if there were any other survivors nearby.

.Our 'construction site' is in the parking lot on the underground floor, where there are a large number of relatively well-preserved car wrecks, as well as the corpses of gnawers!"

Fang Chang: "I guess a battle broke out here before! Unfortunately, the battle was over when we arrived. Two power armors and two mechanical dogs were patrolling the parking lot, and our job is to use them

The cutting machines assigned to us can dismantle valuable parts of used vehicles!”

Fang Chang: "The whole process is quite easy, and the construction efficiency is much simpler than using an ax and a saw to dismantle a car! We will use a manual hydraulic press to roughly press the removed car doors, hoods and other parts, and then drag them to the parking lot in the city.

On the heavy truck at the entrance. There are nP engineers on board the truck, operating more professional equipment to perform secondary hydraulic pressure on the garbage, and then load the garbage pressed into metal blocks onto the truck."

Fang Chang: "By the way, the nP there will weigh the garbage, and then the collection amount will be counted in the vm task bar. After calculation, 100 kilograms can be exchanged for 1 silver coin."

Elf King Fugui: "Wait a minute, isn't that a bad loss? The garbage collection task at the outpost is also at the same price. I remember it was 1 silver coin for 100 kilograms of scrap steel."

Lao Bai: "It's different. For the garbage collection task at the outpost, you have to pick up the garbage from outside the wetland park. It's at least 1 kilometer just out of the park, and if you go to the underground parking lot in a residential area like that

What’s even more troublesome is that, not to mention how far the transportation is, there are often sneak attacks by nibblers.”

Fang Chang: "Yes, and our base does not have that kind of cutter. It will take a lot of time to remove the car doors and hood. In addition, this task also has activity reward points, about 1 point for 100 kilograms."

 Ye Shi: "Epic enhancement for power players! By the way, I found something interesting. When Brother Mosquito and I were squatting in the camp to eat lunch, an nP came over and gave us instant noodles in exchange for lunch. (Funny)"

ˆRoller washing machine: “Holy shit?! Is it so smart?”

 Lao Wang next door: “What does nP’s instant noodles taste like? Is it delicious?”

Ye Shi: "It tastes really good. It's just boiling water. A packet of vegetables mixed with some noodles. I feel numb. But it's okay to eat fresh. I'm not really hungry with their food. Anyway, I'm four o'clock in the afternoon."

I’m just hungry. (Funny)”

  wThere are really mosquitoes: "I have to complain about this. I feel sorry for the nP on the Pioneer. They live in the water and heat and can't eat a decent hot meal."

Irena: "It's because you two are so good at eating, you're a real rice cook. (Funny)"

Tomato scrambled eggs: "As soon as Brother Ye Shi said this, I remembered that there seemed to be some NPCs from the Pioneer coming to our place tonight to have a meal? I saw that Old Luca collected their money, one for each person.

Paper, I don’t know how much it is.”

Debted Eyes: "!? The answer is actually a chef?"

Tomato scrambled eggs: "What the hell, that banknote is not for me. (Rolls eyes)"

Makabazi: "But what's the use of that piece of paper? Can it be used to buy something? I don't see any nP store that accepts it."

Ye Shi: “I don’t know, it seems that only Boss Crow has one at the moment. I wonder if she has figured it out. Why don’t I ask her some other time? (Funny)”

ˆ Irena: “Boss Crow: Are you polite? (Funny)”

 …

 North gate of the outpost.

Looking at the crowded market, Crow Crow, who had cooked mushroom soup, sighed.

 This was the third time she sighed in an hour.

 At this time, her stall would already be crowded with people. Today, everyone went to open up new land in the new map, and there were more sellers than buyers in the market.

Just now, there were two young players chatting, and the topic changed into "There are so few people in the market today", "Let's go to the forum to get some water!", "Let's get started!".

And then……

 The two of them really left.

,

 “It’s so deserted today...”

 How about collecting the share?

 It’s okay if you’re doing tasks, but it’s quite boring if there are too few people in setting up a stall.

  It’s better to go to the official website and watch the netizens bragging.

 At this point, it is almost dawn in real life, many people have gone offline, and the official website is probably very busy.

Those big guys who are going to open up new maps should have already made strategies, and they will probably see some interesting things.

Just when Crow Crow was thinking this, a pair of big clear eyes came to the stall at some point and blinked at the big pot curiously.

 There were mushrooms, venison and some herbs floating in the pot, exuding a very fragrant smell. Qiu Ye swallowed in dissatisfaction, his eyes full of longing.

Looking at today's first little guest in surprise, Crow Crow greeted him quickly.

 “Would you like a bowl?”

Qiuye blushed, nodded sheepishly, shook his head again, and spoke in a non-standard pronunciation.

"No."

Huh?

The expression on Crow Crow's face was even more surprised, as if he had discovered a new world.

 This nP can actually talk!

  Seizing the opportunity, she quickly continued.

“There is a 50% discount on mushroom soup today. Do you want to buy a bowl?”

 Autumn leaves blinked, not understanding this sentence.

 She doesn't know many words, she learned them all when she was setting up a stall with her sister.

Those blue coats always say something difficult to understand, but some words that appear more frequently and combined with body language can still guess the meaning.

 This method of communication is a bit like other nomads they met on their journey.

 Some people from far, far away places may seem to speak the same language as them, but they still sound quite different.

 This time you have to rely on intuition.

Yao Ya picked up the wooden bowl and served the little girl a bowl of hot mushroom soup. With a sweet smile on his face, he said softly.

“Forget it, there are no guests today anyway. Seeing how cute you are, I’ll treat this bowl as a treat from my sister.”

 “Drink it while it’s hot.”

Looking at the bowl that was suddenly thrust into her hand, the little girl looked at a loss and her anxious expression looked like she had done something bad.

This man was so anxious that he came up with a few more words.

She opened her mouth and said.

 “I, I have no money...”



 “No money, I’ll treat you.”

This time, the little girl seemed to understand that this bowl of mushroom soup was free, but she still had an embarrassed expression on her face.

Looking at the steaming soup in her hands, she finally couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, picked up the bowl, blew on it, and drank it all in one gulp.

 Looking at the guests gulping down the soup, Crow Crow's face showed a motherly smile.

Knew it.

 Compared to silver coins or something.

 This is the satisfaction you pursue.

“Drink slowly, do you want another bowl? Sister, I’ll give you some more meat.”

After finishing the soup, Qiuye put down the bowl in his hand. Qiuye looked embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, the little girl rummaged in her pocket and secretly placed a necklace on the table.

There are some beautiful stones hanging on it.

“This is the amulet I picked up on my journey and made... for you.”

Leaving behind these incomprehensible words and the handmade necklace, the little girl turned around and ran away without waiting for the crow to continue making soup.

 Crow Crow was stunned for a moment, put down the spoon, and picked up the necklace on the table.

Well……

 Mission props?

 It doesn't seem to have any added attributes, it's just ordinary quartz no matter how you look at it.

However, Crow Crow happily took the necklace away.

 At this time, a strange customer came to the market at the north entrance.

The customer had a sneaky expression on his face. After entering the market, he looked around as if he was looking for something.

When he saw the stall selling mushroom soup, his eyes suddenly lit up. He walked over and pointed at the pot, then opened his wallet, took out a banknote and slapped it on the table.

 “I want to buy a bowl, how much does it cost?”

 Why are all the people here today nP?

Looking carefully, it seems that he is still the quartermaster of the office?

Looking at the 100R note on the table, listening to the tone of voice that Jili Guala didn’t understand at all, Crow Crow looked dumbfounded.

 What the hell?

 Are you here to buy a whole pot again?

Just when Crow Crow was at a loss, a majestic figure suddenly appeared next to her stall and helped her out.

"Haha, my friend, I have been looking for you for a long time, and you are here! I just used your phone number. By the way, you can't spend money with this kind of paper. We have to use a special

Just a few coins. Just treat this pot of soup as a treat for me."

  Gently taking away the banknote on the table, Chu Guang scratched the vm with his index finger.

Hearing the "ding" sound of his vm, Crow Crow quickly raised his arm and took a look, and then he was so surprised that he seemed to be able to stuff a goose egg into his mouth.

 100 silver???

 Ahhhh this!

Isn’t that too much?!

Luo Hua was also stunned when he saw Chu Guang putting away the banknotes.

Wait a moment……

 Didn’t you agree to invite me?

 Give me the money back.

"You haven't eaten either, right? Come with me, I've prepared good wine and delicious food," Chu Guang said as he picked up the whole pot of mushroom soup.

 It smells pretty good.

 With a drink, I should be able to fill this guy with two more bottles.

“Wine? Do you have wine here?” Luo Hua looked surprised and immediately forgot about the money.

Chu Guang looked at him with a strange expression.

 “Don’t you have one?”

 Luo Hua looked a little embarrassed and smiled.

“We do have alcohol, but it’s impossible to drink alcohol, right? And the captain won’t let us drink, saying that drinking will cause trouble…”

 Chu Guang looked thoughtful.

"Then if I treat you to a drink, wouldn't it be against your rules..."

Luo Hua quickly glanced around and saw that the person in the way was not there, so he waved his hand and said.

“It’s okay, I’m willing to have a drink with you. This is also part of my official duties!”

Looking at the impatient expression on his face, Chu Guang smiled knowingly and reached out to pat his shoulder, which was not strong.

“My friend, how can this be called official business? It’s off work time now, I should say... let’s drink to friendship!”

 Luo Hua's eyebrows were raised with joy and she nodded vigorously.

 “Yes, yes, let’s drink to friendship!”

Looking at the two men walking away, the confused Crow Crow finally recovered from the shock of 100 silver coins and jumped up from his chair.

 “Wait, wait a minute!”

“Mr. Manager, I have another duck here!!!”
