Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine (Deep Ocean Survival: A Submarine From The Start)

Chapter 120: 400,000 is gone

, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine!

The dangerous natural hunting ground of alien sea monsters, the irregular deep ocean currents alternate.

All of the potential crises seemed to be condensed together, turning into a ferocious mouth, showing sharp and pointed fangs to Meng Lei.

The foul stench emitting a terrifying aura burst upon his face, making Meng Lei shudder.

However, the words that seemed to have flinched were actually just a joke.

It is impossible for him to give up easily because of this difficulty.

Survival is just a process, and going home is an obsession.

Even if he has no relatives.

Even if he is the only one at home.

After a long silence, Meng Lei was leaning on the production table of the Guixu number, holding a cheap cigarette handed over by Wang Qi in his mouth, silently staring at the sea area map of the hydrothermal wasteland in his hand.

After a while, Chen Yu said:

"For the sake of safety, my suggestion is to buy another F-class submarine **** before going to sea and expand the fleet to five."

After pondering for a while, Chen Yu exhaled a puff of smoke from his mouth and added:

"Although that extra submarine may not have much effect, it can still provide some help when encountering a large abyss siren.

No matter how bad it is, there are more chances to escape. "

Most of the F-class submarines can already be equipped with independent shuttle boats.

This kind of shuttle boat is generally hidden in the abdomen of the submarine. Only when it encounters narrow terrain and needs to explore the way, or encounters danger, the shuttle boat will be dispatched as an escape tool.

Although, the energy reserve of the shuttle is not enough to maintain high-speed sailing for too long.

But before the energy is exhausted, the limit sailing distance can barely run a ten or twenty kilometers.

In some cases, it can really save the day.

Meng Lei did not refuse, nodded noncommittally, and was about to answer when he suddenly remembered something, turned his head and asked:

"Captain Chen, the price of an F-class submarine is as high as 150,000 yuan. In order to deal with the various dangers of the hydrothermal wasteland, it will cost at least 200,000 yuan to land it, including the miscellaneous upgrade costs!

I have just over 100,000 left, barely enough for the upgrades of the other three submarines.

If you allocate funds from the fleet, will it affect the overall survival and development? "

Chen Yu shook his head and smiled:

"For the time being, I can barely support it. After all, the bounty department of the first echelon has been continuously receiving tasks from the alliance.

So far, we've earned nearly a million bounties from the Alliance's bounty system! "

Speaking of this, Chen Yu changed his words and said:

"However, most of these funds are used to buy food and pay the basic salaries of fleet members.

After all, the food resources in the sea area near Xier City are relatively poor, and there are many lone wolf players, so it is difficult to harvest anything from hunting, and we can’t be too harsh and let our subordinates live on energy bars every day.

Therefore, most of the current food sources are still supplied by the city of Xier, which is also a big problem we are currently facing. "

Hearing this, Meng Lei nodded solemnly.

In fact, for such a deep-sea environment, the biggest problem facing human survival is nothing more than food and air.

Danshui is actually a good solution, but the extraction equipment of the initial wasteland boat is somewhat unreasonable.

As for air, as long as the energy can keep up, it will also be solved.

In the alien world where nuclear fusion technology has been fully developed, this problem is not a big deal at all.

After all, the lack of food is still the biggest obstacle on the road to survival.

Sighing lightly, Meng Lei pinched his brows and said in a deep voice:

"For food issues, I took the time to contact Roger to see if he could provide the coordinates of a few natural fishing grounds that are relatively close.

If there is a chance, we will set up a separate ocean-going fleet to be responsible for the supply of food.

As long as this trouble can be solved and the initial stage of development can be passed, all difficulties will not be a problem! "

Chen Yu didn't speak, just nodded silently.

He could hear that Meng Lei was just cheering up a few people and building up his confidence.

Even if the food problem is temporarily resolved, in the subsequent development process, it is impossible for everything to be smooth sailing.

There will always be a series of various troubles that follow.

But it seems that there is no better choice at present. We can only take one step at a time and face the difficulties.

The way home is not so easy.

"okay."

At this time, Meng Lei got up from the production table, carefully folded the nautical map in his hand, and carefully put it into the inner pocket of his clothes.

He looked around and said to Chen Yu and the others:

"What should I do? I'll go to the shipyard to see if there are any suitable submarines. I'll book one first."

Time is pressing, and in addition to the three submarines that need to be upgraded and transformed, the purchase and transformation of new submarines must also be resolved as soon as possible.

The transformation alone would take three days, and now that the space tide is about to erupt, they have no more time to delay.

Hearing this, Chen Yu and Wang Qi nodded.

They also have a lot of things to deal with at hand. They are busy every day and rarely have time to rest.

Without further delay, Meng Lei turned around and went out.

Before leaving, he suddenly remembered something, stopped again, turned to look at Ning Wen, and asked:

"By the way, Awen, has the relationship with the shipyard been opened? Can you give more discounts when buying ships?"

Although in all occasions in the alliance, except for the auction house, there is a 25% discount.

But in the early stage of entrepreneurship, the principle of saving can be saved, Meng Lei felt that it was more appropriate to find acquaintances.

However, Ning Wen shook his head with embarrassment and said helplessly:

"No, the shipyard is an independent organization of the alliance, and the senior management rarely has contact with outsiders, even if they come to worship, there is no chance, and someone must introduce them.

Therefore, the development of the relationship there has not improved so far. "

Hearing this, Meng Lei didn't care too much, patted Ning Wen's shoulder and said:

"It's okay, take your time, don't put too much pressure on yourself, I'll see if I can help you find a suitable candidate, and recommend it, and then go to other things first."

After that, Meng Lei turned around and walked out of the Guixu cabin.

Since Ning Wen couldn't help, Meng Lei could only bite the bullet and go about business by himself.

Fortunately, with a 25% discount in hand, even if you get the goods at the market price, you can save a lot of money.

In addition, he was not without an acquaintance at the shipyard.

The front desk receptionist and salesman, Nona, whom he met last time he rebuilt the submarine, has been in constant contact with him.

From time to time, this beautiful saleswoman would send Meng Lei a message with no ambiguous words, just a simple greeting, and Meng Lei would occasionally reply politely.

Although there is no deep connection between the two, the superficial relationship is not bad.

The upgrade of the three submarines this time, plus the purchase of new submarines, the transaction volume is at least 300,000!

An order of this value is enough to make Meng Lei top the ranks of VIP customers.

Appropriate discounts can still be satisfied.

He took out his tablet and sent a message to Nona. Meng Lei explained his intention and asked if he was free.

Seeing that Meng Lei took the initiative to text herself for the first time and came with a large order, Nona was immediately overjoyed and excitedly expressed that she would welcome her in person.

Meng Lei felt that it was unnecessary, so he refused, and let her wait in the reception hall of the shipyard.

On the way, Meng Lei had nothing to do, so he browsed the headlines of the day on the tablet.

He wanted to check to see if there was any new progress in the war between the alliance and the separatist organization.

But to his disappointment and fortunately, the two sides are still conducting verbal attacks, and there is no actual war action.

Moreover, with the exposure of the investigation results of the Rongyan Outpost, the wind of public opinion began to tilt towards the Alliance side.

The mastermind behind the scenes committed suicide by drinking bullets. Under pressure, the accomplice admitted that he was a member of the separatist organization. A large number of separatist armed personnel were also captured at the scene.

All the clues and evidence have confirmed the identity of the separatist organization as a terrorist organization, intending to destroy the stability of the alliance and the peace with the alien society.

"No matter how they argue, facts speak louder than words. The behavior of the separatist organization in recent years is undoubtedly digging its own grave!"

Leonard, the head of the personnel department of the alliance, delivered a speech filled with righteous indignation.

"I know very well that among our people, there are some people who have gone astray, who have been deceived by them, and have been brainwashed by their democratic ideas and free trade rhetoric.

But the separatist organizations at that time are no longer what they used to be. They are just a group of terrorists under the banner of democracy!

The Alliance hereby appeals to the general public, including those members of the separatist organization who have been deceived, to actively report and expose, as long as they can contribute to the peace of the alien planet, the alliance will not be blamed for the past! "

In the end, Leonard concluded:

"The vast number of kind and righteous alien citizens, don't be tempted by the promises and conditions of the separation organization. They will only lead us the remnants of Tia to the ultimate chaos and death!

Open your eyes and see them for what they really are, this is the disaster the secession has brought us! "

At the end of the speech, a video was played on the screen.

That is the scene after the seawater in the commercial area of ​​the Rongyan Outpost has disappeared. The devastated city has been destroyed beyond recognition. Thousands of painted skin parasite corpses have been piled up on the square at the entrance of the city. Corpse Mountain.

The **** scene where the residual limbs and tentacles are twisted and entangled, and the heads and limbs pile up on each other, is like a purgatory on earth!

All viewers felt numb scalps and felt a deep chill from the inside out.

Terrible, really terrible!

In the decades of peace time after the development of Pichongjing, such a scene has long been forgotten in people's minds.

People living in this era have never imagined that one day they will see such a picture.

At this moment, the fear of being dominated by painted-skin parasites in the past has spread again.

The ancient shadow is like a huge net, shrouded in everyone's hearts again.

As soon as this video was exposed, the separatist organization suddenly became the public enemy of the whole people.

While the general public fell into panic, they also launched a collective denunciation against the separatist organization.

Meng Lei shuttled through the lower areas of Xier City all the way, and he could hear many people discussing this matter along the way, which had a great impact.

In order to establish an image and stabilize the panic in the hearts of ordinary people, the alliance also timely released another news.

It is said that the second generation of Dedochong is already in intensive research and development, and is about to enter the clinical trial stage, and will be put into mass production in the near future.

This news undoubtedly led the people's voice to the alliance side again, and gained a lot of support, which made the alliance's dominant position virtually stable.

However, the separation of organizations is not sitting still.

The separatist organization refuted through the media controlled by itself, saying that all this was a hoax directed and performed by the alliance.

Among them, the most obvious loophole of the alliance is,

If the antidote was not developed in advance, in the face of the emergence of new types of eggs, it is impossible for the research on targeted drugs to achieve a major breakthrough in a short period of time!

In addition, the separatist organization also stated that when many people passed through the major military strongholds of the alliance, they found that the alliance had a large number of troops and a large number of commercial cargo ships were assembled.

Obviously, the alliance has been planning for a long time and is preparing for war in advance.

For a time, the two sides argued endlessly, and the quarrel was a lively one.

Meng Lei glanced around and found that the war would not start for a while, so he stopped paying too much attention.

For him, including for the separatist group Exploratorium, the later the war will start in full swing, the better.

Then they have more time to develop and prepare.

Once the first shot is fired, the independence of the Exploratorium is about to begin the countdown.

Ten minutes later, Meng Lei bypassed the lower planting area and the workshop, and finally came to the area where the shipyard was located under the guidance of the signs all over the passage.

After Nona ended the communication with Meng Lei, although she did not take the initiative to greet her, she was still waiting outside the cabin door of the reception hall of the shipyard.

When Meng Lei's figure appeared at the end of the corridor, Nona stepped forward with her long, slender and straight legs enthusiastically.

"Captain Meng, long time no see!"

His golden hair was rippling, and those eyes that were as bright as sapphire stared at Meng Lei without blinking.

Meng Lei looked back without hesitation, smiled and shook hands with Nona.

"Hello, Miss Nona"

The two greeted politely outside the gate of the shipyard.

Then, Nona smiled and said in a slightly thin soft voice:

"The VIP room has prepared first-class coffee for you, please come with me!"

Saying that, he guided Meng Lei to the reception hall of the shipyard.

Meng Lei nodded and followed.

He somewhat likes Nona's resolute attitude and never greets her too much.

On some issues, as long as the customer's words reveal the taste of rejection, she will not entangle too much.

This is one of the reasons why Meng Lei will deal with her again, this woman can bring a very comfortable feeling.

Along the way, the reception hall of the shipyard today is obviously much more lively than the last time I came.

It can be seen that there are many guys dressed as bounty hunters who are talking and laughing about business with the receptionist, obviously they are regular customers.

In addition, many Blue Star players appeared in the hall, some of whom Meng Lei had seen before.

It was during the first joint meeting of the major fleets. The head of the unstructured player organization sitting on the periphery had a relationship with Meng Lei.

Someone with sharp eyes came over to greet Meng Lei enthusiastically after seeing Meng Lei.

Meng Lei didn't put on airs, and greeted everyone with a smile and polite greetings.

After a while, after Meng Lei got rid of the "entanglement" of these people.

As Nona led the way, she covered her mouth and chuckled:

"I didn't expect that, after so long, Captain Meng's popularity has remained constant for a long time. It seems that you have gained a lot of prestige among the Blue Star players on the way to Xier City!"

Not long after Meng Lei set sail last time, with the publication of the exclusive interview in the celebrity section of Searle Weekly, Nona already had a relatively deep understanding of Meng Lei's past.

Only then did she know that the young captain who had dealt with her had such a miraculous experience.

So I made up my mind to have a good relationship with Meng Lei, it is best to have a better understanding.

What she regrets is that the other party has always been cold to her, always maintaining a considerable distance, and seems to have no interest.

For such a client, Nona is also very interesting and did not bother too much.

"Everywhere, it's just mutual greetings between friends, it's not as powerful as you said."

Meng Lei smiled and replied with a very gentle tone.

"It's here, please come in!"

At this time, the two came to the door of the VIP room on the side of the reception hall on the first floor. Nona opened the door respectfully and nodded slightly.

Meng Lei was not polite, and walked in generously.

After entering the room, Meng Lei stopped being polite and went straight to the point:

"I'm looking for you this time, and it's still about the upgrade and transformation of the submarine. It is also an F-class exploration boat. All the transformation projects are all in accordance with the specifications of the previous submarine, but..."

After a pause, Meng Lei stared at Nona and said:

"The quantity has changed this time. I need to change three ships and deliver them at the same time!"

Hearing this, Nona smiled and nodded, but her eyes were mixed with a hint of shock and splendor that could not be concealed, and she said softly:

"Okay, you only need to provide the specific submarine model, and we will send someone to evaluate it, and then give the optimal design plan.

It's the same as last time, you just need to come pick up the goods at that time. "

As she spoke, Nona made coffee in front of the professional coffee table and served Meng Lei with drinks.

Meng Lei nodded and continued:

"In addition, I have to buy another F-class exploration boat, and the transformation project is the same as above.

The specifications of all submarines must be consistent, at least, they must not be worse than the original Typhon! "

Hearing this, Nona's movements suddenly stopped, her pretty face looked at Meng Lei in disbelief, and she said in surprise:

"You...you want to buy a submarine?!"

Meng Lei raised his eyebrows, raised his head in surprise, and said doubtfully:

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"No no no!"

Nona waved her hand quickly, and quickly put away her emotions that she should not appear, and said with a slightly reddened face due to excitement:

"Of course no problem, here you are free to buy whatever you want, Nona is happy to serve you!"

After a pause, the beautiful receptionist admitted frankly:

"However, I do have some surprises, the speed of your development is unbelievable!

Most of the other Blue Star players are still struggling with the purchase terms of G-class exploration boats, but you already own four F-class submarines, and you even plan to buy a fifth!

compared to you...

No, other Blue Star players are simply not comparable to you! "

A bare F-class exploration boat is worth 150,000 yuan, and five submarines plus the cost of upgrading, the overall value has approached one million!

Look at the entire Sear City, and even the entire 66671 waterway.

There are only a handful of bounty hunters with such worth.

The point is that the alliance monopolizes all supply systems, and apart from a few major mining companies and arms giants, there are no private entrepreneurs who can earn so much wealth through other channels.

It is reasonable for Nona to make such a sigh.

"Luck, it's all luck, Miss Nona, you are overrated!"

Meng Lei's humble response, this kind of flattery like a gentle breeze, was very useful to him, but it still showed the humility that a gentleman should have.

The blonde beauty's bright eyes flashed, and the more she looked at the young rich man in front of her, the more she liked it.

As she continued to grind the coffee, she asked as if she was at home:

"By the way, Captain Meng, are you planning to go abroad next? This sea area near Xier City should not require a joint fleet operation of this scale, right? Or, do you have other plans?"

Meng Lei nodded with a smile and said:

"I'm planning to go out, go around the hydrothermal wasteland, and complete a commission."

He didn't explain his purpose, just mentioned it briefly.

Although the existence of the black market is an open secret, he will not spread it everywhere.

However, after Nona heard that he was going to the hydrothermal wasteland, the expression on her face changed a little, and she seemed to have a vague fear of this place name.

"Captain Meng, are you going to the terrifying sea area of ​​the hydrothermal wasteland?"

Seeing that Nona looked different, Meng Lei nodded and asked:

"What's wrong, Miss Nona, is there anything wrong?"

Nona frowned slightly, pondered for a while, and said with a hint of worry in her tone:

"It's not wrong, it's..."

After a pause, Nona said again: "With the hull structure of an F-class exploration boat, although it can fully adapt to the depth of the sea there, the ordinary hull shell is difficult to withstand the dense sea monster attacks in that sea area.

In addition, the firepower of the five F-class submarines is also slightly insufficient. It is recommended that you install a machine gun turret on each submarine to improve the near fire resistance! "

When the voice fell, Nona seemed to be afraid of Meng Lei's misunderstanding, and added another sentence:

"Captain Meng, I didn't intend to sell our business to you, but that sea area is indeed quite dangerous!

Under normal circumstances, bounty hunters who drive F-class submarines will never easily set foot in that sea area unless necessary. Even if they have to go deep, they will wait for the fleet in the city of Xier and join hands.

Therefore, it is recommended that you try to improve the firepower configuration and shell strength as much as possible, so as to improve the safety factor! "

Meng Lei nodded slightly.

It can be seen that Nona is really thinking about him, not for performance.

A shipyard receptionist like her must have been in contact with those bounty hunters a lot.

Her advice is still very useful.

"How much more will it cost to install turrets on each submarine? Based on your judgment, including the Typhon boat, how many marks will it cost?"

With limited funds, Meng Lei did not dare to pay directly with a wave of his hand as he did last time.

He had to ask first before he could make a decision.

Nona brewed the ground coffee and asked while stirring:

"Captain Meng, do you need to add sugar?"

Meng Lei nodded: "Thank you!"

When Nona placed the brewed coffee on the table in front of Meng Lei, she nodded slightly and said:

"You use it slowly, and I'll get you the data and calculate it."

After saying that, the blonde beauty gracefully left the VIP room, and after a while, she came back with a booklet and a tablet in her hand.

"Captain Meng, what are the models of your other three submarines?

Also, do you have a favorite for the new submarine you plan to buy? "

Meng Lei reported the models of the three submarines that were prostituted for free, then shook his head and said:

"I haven't thought about the new submarine. What model do you recommend?"

Nona called up a series of submarine information from the tablet, placed it in front of Meng Lei, and said:

"Actually, in terms of performance, the F-class submarines are not very different from one model to another, and the internal structure and appearance are also different.

When the level is upgraded to E-level, the real difference between the engine and the hull structure will be more obvious.

All the F-class submarines currently in stock in our shipyard are here, take a look! "

After a pause, Nona then added:

"Of course, the types of submarines we can manufacture are not limited to those listed in the data, there are a lot of submarine blueprints behind, you can choose anything.

However, the manufacturing cycle may be longer. "

Meng Lei nodded slightly, touched the tablet with his fingers, and swiped page by page.

It was definitely too late to wait for the construction of the new submarine, he didn't have so much time to waste here.

Temporarily selectable objects can only be selected from these subs in stock.

However, since Nona said that the overall performance of the F-class submarines is almost the same, then there is no need for him to be too picky.

He randomly selected an F-class exploration boat with a unique appearance and a bit like an eagle's beak, pushed the tablet to Nona, pointed to the picture above, and said:

"Just it!"

Nona's beautiful eyes flickered, she glanced down, and said with a smile:

"Captain Meng, I have to say that your eyes are really vicious!

This Falcon-class exploration boat, among the current F-class submarines, can be regarded as a top-notch existence in all aspects of hardware and overall performance!

It is the Phenomenon-class submarine among the second F-class submarines developed by the Alliance after your original Typhon!

We have always been among the top sellers here, and will definitely bring you a quality sailing experience! "

Meng Lei has long been immune to this kind of propaganda, so he nodded noncommittally and continued to ask:

"Help me do the math, plus the renovation content I proposed earlier, how many marks will be needed in total with all the costs down?"

"Please wait!"

Nona smiled slightly, suppressing her excitement, and calculated it carefully based on the submarine model Meng Lei just provided.

After a while,

The dark blue eyes glowed with a strange light, and they looked at Meng Lei with a slight flicker.

Nona raised her head and said, "Captain Meng, according to calculations, this Falcon-class exploration boat will cost 214,500 marks plus the cost of modification.

In addition, the total cost of upgrading the four submarines is 185,400 marks!

All added up, it amounts to 399,900 marks! "

Hearing this, Meng Lei breathed a little and took a deep breath calmly.

The cost of the new submarine is still in his assessment category, and the price of 214,000 is barely reasonable.

However, the cost of upgrading the other four submarines was a bit beyond his expectations.

The renovation cost of 185,000 yuan was more than half of his estimated price!

It is no exaggeration to say that if others have the money, they can directly buy a new submarine.

Even if the 25% discount was paid and all the cash on him was swiped out, it would not be enough to pay the fee!

This is nearly 400,000, so if you don't have it, it will be gone? !

When the money is used up, he hates little, and Meng Lei deeply understands the meaning of this sentence at this time!

After pondering for a while, Meng Lei asked:

"What is the cost of installing a machine gun turret? Why is it so much more expensive than last time?"

Nona smiled and explained:

"Actually, it's already very cheap. It costs about 15,000 marks to install a machine gun turret.

You have installed a total of four turrets, which is 60,000.

Counting the reinforcement cost of the electromagnetic coil, super capacitor and hull shell, the modification cost of more than 180,000 yuan is also reasonable. "

Meng Lei clicked his tongue silently, his little heart beating wildly.

Throwing out 400,000 yuan all at once would make him a nouveau riche.

The point is, if he doesn't convert the hundreds of thousands of various materials picked up on the ship into money, the cash in his hand is simply not enough, and the difference is too much.

"Miss Nona, we are also old friends. Can you think of a better price for this price?"

Meng Lei took a sip of coffee, pretended to be a big old man, and said in a deep voice:

"You know, our cooperation is just the beginning, and I will provide a large number of orders in the future.

Therefore, I hope you can communicate with your superiors and carefully consider the charging standards. "

Nona was stunned when she heard the words, and there was a look of embarrassment on her face.

To be honest, the price she reported is indeed the standard price. Even considering the possible long-term cooperation in the future, she has already screened a lot of unnecessary internal upgrades for Meng Lei.

At her level, being able to do this is the limit.

I thought that Meng Lei would be the same as last time, and he would pay the bill directly by credit card.

Who knows, the other party actually made a counter-offer this time.

However, since Meng Lei took the initiative to make a request~lightnovelpub.net~ she nodded lightly, with a sincere smile on her face, and responded:

"Wait a minute, I'll go and apply for you to see if I can get some more fee reductions."

Meng Lei raised his legs and smiled:

"Okay, I'm here waiting for your good news."

Nona picked up the tablet on the table and left with a polite smile.

Meng Lei was not asked to wait too long. Soon after, there was a knock on the door. Nona returned to the VIP room with the tablet in her hand, and nodded slightly:

"Captain Meng, in order to thank you for your support to our Xiercheng Shipyard, your superiors agree to offer you some discounts."

Saying that, Nona handed the tablet to Meng Lei:

"This is the list and preferential items of your consumption, please take a look..."
