The current Tianyuan base is no longer ruled by a ten-member committee, and dealing with a dictator will somewhat worry these powerless businessmen. If Zhu Tian swallows his goods and doesn't pay, then he really has no place to reason.
Hearing this, Zhu Tian laughed twice and waved his hands.
"Don't worry, it's absolutely impossible for me to do that kind of thing without paying for something. Just take me to see the goods."
After receiving Zhu Tian's promise, Emperor Hu De immediately laughed happily and bowed in an exaggerated manner.
"Thank you, Marshal Zhu. I will take you to see the goods right now."
With that said, Emperor Hu De turned around and walked towards the warehouse first.
"Do you need me to accompany you to look at the goods?" Zhao Tianqiang looked at Zhu Tian and asked.
"No, I'll just go and take a look myself."
"Okay, I'll go back first... By the way, this guy is very cunning, don't be fooled by him. Just go to hell when bargaining, he's already here for this batch of goods
After stopping for almost half a month, he still had to sell it even at a loss."
"The market is already saturated, and there are only so many people. And as factories and small workshops continue to emerge, I'm afraid this saturation will become the norm. Not to mention businessmen from Su City, even the local military factories in Tianyuan Base.
We have to start worrying about sales...Three months ago, this was unimaginable."
At that time, everyone had a surplus of energy crystals in their hands, and the rise in living standards also rekindled the desire of survivors to hunt for energy crystals. As a result, those mercenary groups and solo travelers who were eager to replace their equipment
Customers even lined up in a long queue at the entrance of the arms factory. Arms dealers who had no worries about sales naturally racked their brains to add production lines and expand production.
But after all, everyone only has two hands, and weapons and equipment are not so easily damaged. When this "big change" trend passes, those overproduced weapons will naturally be piled up in warehouses and cannot be sold.
Overcapacity is indeed a problem.
If it is not handled properly, I am afraid that after a short period of prosperity, those emerging factories and small workshops will fall into a wave of bankruptcy. Not only the arms industry, as the production capacity of Tianyuan Base gradually increases, other industries will sooner or later have similar situations.
The problem.
Looking at the ragged back, Zhu Tian couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful expression on his face.
When the iron door opened, the smell of desiccant hit my face!
Emperor Hu De fumbled and pressed the button on the wall and turned on the lights in the warehouse.
The dark space suddenly lit up, and thick wooden boxes almost filled the warehouse space.
Those open boxes were stuffed with baseball-shaped thermal grenades, as well as rockets as thick as a bowl, arranged like a honeycomb. There was a row of sniper rifles leaning against the wall opposite the door, and there was a rough guess.
There are more than a hundred of them, and the box on the side should contain replaceable sights. As for the cylinder leaning against the wall on the other side, no need to think about it, it is obviously the cylinder used to launch those rockets.
"Hell sniper rifle, thermal grenade, Stinger anti-tank rocket launcher, electromagnetic assault rifle, and some other reliable gadgets. I believe you will be interested." He said with a smile, and Emperor Hu De made a request to Zhu Tian.
Ground gesture.
Walking forward, Zhu Tian picked up a "poisonous stinger" and put it on his shoulder to try out the sight.
"Is this thing easy to use?"
"It only takes one shot to destroy a powered armor." After saying that, Emperor Hu De added: "And it's also a land combat type."
“Is the quality reliable?”
"Use my head to guarantee it." Emperor Hu De said, patting his chest and sealing the deal.
Nodding with satisfaction, Zhu Tian put down the rocket launcher in his hand, and then walked around the warehouse carefully to confirm the quality of other weapons.
"I would like to ask, is Boss Zhu planning to make some big move?"
"Oh? How can you see that?" Zhu Tian said casually while gesturing with the hell sniper rifle in his hand.
The pair of shrewd little eyes rolled, and Emperor Hu De grinned and said: "Hey, now everyone knows that the arms in Tianyuan Base can no longer be sold. Boss Zhu is in the food business, so he can't even think about it.
A small profit. Are these arms intended to arm an army?"
Zhu Tian glanced at him, and Emperor Hu De was so frightened that he quickly waved his hand and explained: "Ahem. Don't get me wrong. I don't mean to pry at all."
"What do you mean?" Zhu Tian looked at him with a half-smile and asked.
"Hey, I just want to ask Boss Zhu if he is interested in people." Emperor Hu De said with a flattering smile.
"people?"
"To put it simply, they are slaves, but they are all well-trained, with electronic collars hanging around their necks. When fighting happens, all they have to do is rush forward."
Zhu Tian glanced at Emperor Hu De in surprise: "I didn't expect that in addition to the arms business, you are also engaged in the slave trade?"
Hearing that Zhu Tian seemed to be interested, Emperor Hu De immediately became interested and explained to Zhu Tian diligently: "Slaves are a big specialty in Sushi, like the big mines in Sushi.
There are as many as 70,000 to 80,000 slaves registered for sale. Although I don't have any on hand, if Boss Zhu needs it, I will go back and get you a batch right away."
Zhu Tian couldn't help but be moved: "Seventy thousand or eighty thousand? What the hell is this big mine?"
Seventy-eight thousand! Counting the survivors and floating population attached to the surrounding area, the population of Tianyuan Base is only a little over fifty thousand. Just the number of slaves registered for sale is as many as seventy-eight thousand, which is too perverted!
Although Emperor Hu De was a little confused when he heard that Zhu Tian had never heard of the big mine, he thought it might be because Zhu Tian had never left Jinling City, so he didn't make too many guesses and explained the origin of the big mine to him.
.
First of all, the reason why it is called the Big Mine is not because it is really a mine, but because there is an energy crystal mine with an annual output value of more than 100,000 points!
Zhu Tian had heard Li Xinran mention the energy crystal mine a long time ago, but had never seen it before. According to Hu Dedi's description, it was a "biological deposit" attached to the rock wall, shaped like a fleshy bubble.
, the growth form is similar to moss. Although it looks disgusting, energy crystals can grow from the flesh bubbles.
What the slaves in the big mine have to do every day is to wear chemical protective suits and walk into the mine to pick up energy crystals the size of sand grains from those disgusting and highly corrosive flesh bubbles.
Because he was guarding a "big gold mine", the "mine owner" of the big mine also hired a group of raiders who were good at catching slaves, and gathered a ragtag group of 4,000 people, becoming the most powerful survivor force in Sioux City.
because and
The relationship with the surrounding predators is unusual, so in addition to outputting energy crystals, the big mine also engages in slave trading.
The necrotic parts of those energy crystal ore flesh bubbles can be cut off and used as good materials to make nutritional mixtures, so the cost of raising slaves is not high, and the number of slaves naturally increases.
Zhu Tian thought for a moment and then asked: "How many slaves can you bring?"
"It depends on what kind of slaves Boss Zhu wants?" Emperor Hu De chuckled: "It's still the end of winter, and the road is not too dangerous. The cheapest kind of slaves, I can bring you one or two thousand, no problem
, but that kind of goods can only be used as cannon fodder and are of no use at all. There are also those with good physical fitness, I can also bring you a hundred and eighty. Besides, they are relatively expensive and good goods, because they are very tight.
I can’t give you an accurate message until I go back.”
"Good goods? What good goods are there?" Zhu Tian asked with interest.
"For example, some powerful loners, or some special talents with outstanding abilities in certain aspects. Of course, the most expensive one is the ice coffin." Emperor Hu De smiled mysteriously.
That smile looks so vulgar.
"What the hell is an ice coffin?"
"Hey, that's a good thing. Boss Zhu must have heard of the dormant warehouse."
"I've heard of it." Zhu Tian nodded.
Cryogenic hibernation technology allows people to spend long periods of time with their body functions stagnant. For users, fifty years may be a matter of opening and closing their eyes. Some shelters are even completely made up of a large number of hibernators.
Warehouse composition.
"Imagine, pressing down those big stars, ladies, and rich ladies who were among the most popular people before the disaster, watching them crying and calling the police, begging for mercy, while telling them that this world is gone.
The fact that he was saved, and then looking at the crying face gradually despairing..."
"Okay, okay!" Zhu Tian quickly raised his hand to interrupt his perverted speech.
The description is so vivid, it would be a shame for this guy not to fuck the old bustard.
Seeing that Zhu Tian seemed dissatisfied, Emperor Hu De quickly shut his mouth.
After a pause, Zhu Tian thought for a moment and then said: "How can such a healthy slave be sold?"
"A 2 energy crystal."
"Okay, I need a thousand, can you do it?"
Hearing that Zhu Tian planned to buy so much at once, Emperor Hu De was naturally overjoyed and quickly agreed.
"It can be done, of course it can be done, just leave it to me!"
The slave trade is simply a huge profit. A slave worth 2 energy crystals can earn 1 energy crystal, which is many times more profitable than the profit of arms. He does not negotiate the price of this batch of arms, and directly charges the cost of 80,000 energy crystals.
The price was handled by Zhu Tian.
Having finally thrown away this burden, he couldn't wait to rush back to Sioux City to transport the slaves before the alien species ended hibernation. This would undoubtedly save a lot of costs. March is the golden period for trade, and it only happens once a year!
But before leaving, he mysteriously gave Zhu Tian a small wooden box, saying that it was a small gift to the marshal as a merchant from afar.
When Zhu Tian asked what this was, he smiled and lowered his voice and said: "Do you know the secret of training female slaves in the big mine?"
