Chapter 149 Everything is for Forex

   Late at night.

   Old Luca sent a message reporting today's income to Chu Guang.

   Among them, 2000CR is a fixed salary. Since the logistics department of the pioneer ship purchased value-added services that doubled the production capacity, a total of 255 tons of garbage were collected, and the commission was 1275CR, which added up to 3275CR!

   Then there is the operating income of breakfast, dinner and late night snacks, this extra income actually reached 700CR!

   Add in the daily 600CR meal allowance, deduct the 150CR for purchasing supplies and ingredients, and the balance today reaches 4425CR.

   As for the cost, the quest reward for every 100kg of garbage is one silver coin, which is equivalent to 2550 silver.

   Oh yes, there are still 2550 activity points.

   Evenly spread to 200 people, the per capita income is still a little low, it should be pulled down by some intelligence players.

   I hope the little players will make persistent efforts and create greater glories!

   "Counting the 1200 half-day balance yesterday, the total income for two days is 5625! Good guy, enough to buy 18 assault rifles!"

   When his arsenal was at its highest, he didn't have so many weapons.

Chu Guang can't wait to convert all the money he has saved into guns, hang a 400 silver coins in the weapon shop, and then open an event - "For the exclusive weapons of the expansion pack, 1 point of activity points can be deducted 5 silver coins, up to a maximum of 5 silver coins. 50% off the total price.”

  I believe that when the first wave of players comes back, they will jump with excitement!

  Presumably next time they go, they will definitely work harder!

  Chu Guang felt that he understood the game promotion activities of the 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 both hands, looking at the ceiling and thinking.

   "Tomorrow is the last day before the shift. New players will be online the day after tomorrow, and the two groups will officially start handing over."

   "50 old players with 150 new players...hope nothing goes wrong."

  Or...

   Forget it by yourself.

   There are Xiaoqi, Xiayan, Xiaoyu, and so many old players in the base.

   It shouldn't be a big problem!

   Just when Chu Guang closed the text file and started a game of "Qunxing" to relax, Li De from the logistics department was staring at the plate on the table in a daze on the Trailblazer, ten kilometers away.

   "This...is the blue coat pie?"

   His secretary Wang Jie replied.

   "It's a bun."

   "What about this one? Transparent skin?"

   "It's also a bun... I heard it's a soup bun, it's better to eat it while it's hot with vinegar."

   "What about this flat one? Boiled buns?"

   "Uh, I heard it's called dumplings."

  “???”

   Weird food.

  In the ideal city, fat and protein are not wrapped in carbohydrates like this.

   And there are no supermarkets that sell refugee food - those exotic meats.

The lowest-level employees and the unemployed rely on synthetic starch and a small amount of dietary fiber to survive. The middle-level employees will have vegetable meat and some packages designed to be nutritionally balanced. After all, the latter is the backbone of the enterprise and irreplaceable machinery. Most, businesses usually start thinking about their health.

   And the employees at the upper level, they can eat the pre-war crops produced by the CNC planting tower and the meat synthesized by the rigorous scientific plan. Although this type of food is also an industrial product, in addition to nutrition itself, it will also pay more attention to the eating experience.

   For senior employees and middle-level management, the quality of the diet is quite high. Not only have the opportunity to taste the evenly distributed fat-distributed farmed meat and eggs hatched from live poultry, but also pure natural milk.

  With cooking equipment more sophisticated than CNC machine tools, they can even control the taste and taste of ingredients at the molecular level. With the help of technology, food has become an art.

   Looking at the pile of buns in front of him, Li De couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

  This thing is probably not an art, but more like a cultural product.

   It is said that there is alien meat inside...

  Is it really edible?

   In the spirit of positivism that so many people ate it without looking at what happened, Li De finally put down his prejudice and took a bite.

Then……

   2nd, 3rd...

  Li De: "???"

  Fuck! ?

   This taste is a bit over the top!

  …

   The next day.

   At the west gate of the outpost, the guards squatting in the trenches, wearing uniform fur coats, carried a uniquely shaped rifle on their shoulders.

  Square gun body, dark shell, heavy receiver structure and pure wood stock make it look a bit warhammer style.

   Even if someone uses it as a blunt weapon, there will be no sense of disobedience.

  The big and rough aesthetics of violence has been vividly reflected in it. And its name is quite restrained or lawful.

  【Arbiter Type I】

   Outpost Guard standard weapons!

   "Fire!"

boom--!

   Fifteen gunshots rang out in unison, and the bullets flew murderously towards the target 100 meters away, smashing the tree trunks near the target into pieces.

   The captain of the guard's wrench looked slightly embarrassed.

   10 out of 15 targets missed the target. The most embarrassing thing was that he didn't hit the target himself. The bullet swooped into the woods and could not be found.

   The most important thing is that the manager is standing at the door watching.

   "Reload!" Wrench shouted at the top of his voice.

   The guards quickly pulled the bolt, threw the hot shell into the snow, re-aimed at the target, and waited for the order to start a new round of shooting.

   "Is this powerful?"

   Looking at the rows of tree trunks 100 meters away with a wooden telescope, Chu Guang couldn't help but write a trace of surprise on his face.

   This power feels much stronger than the 7mm iron barrel rifle that Liszt sold him.

Is    really an imitation?

"Didn't you tell me the bigger the better? Anyway, the receiver is made so thick, I thought it would be a pity not to use it, so I simply increased the length of the shell and the charge, and now it uses a 7x70mm rifle, which is longer than the original 20mm." Standing beside him with a cane, Xia Yan gave him a teasing look, "Is this big enough?"

   "It's big enough, it's big enough," Chu Guang said with emotion, "It's the hit rate that's a bit touching."

   But it doesn't really matter.

  These guards are not on the front line in the first place, and there is no need to hand them over to hit targets 100m away, so the players will be finished.

  Shoot a warning shot into the sky, just loud enough!

   If he wasn't worried about clogging the receiver, he would even want to replace them with black powder with a lower cost. Not only is it loud enough, but also smoke, and he looks handsome.

   It is said that there are a lot of life professional players recruited recently, and everyone's life is a bit Buddhist. In the next version, Chu Guang plans to recruit more players from the B club to come in and pick up garbage.

   Then recruit some P club players to come in and fight.

"It's probably a problem with the material of the warhead and the barrel. It's fine within 50m, but the ballistic spread outside 100m is a bit big. I'll think about how to solve this problem..." Seeing Chu Guang looking at him strangely, Xia Yan was slightly stunned. down, "Is there something on my face?"

"No, it's quite clean," Chu Guang smiled and nodded his head when he looked at Xia Yan who was confused, "I just think you've been diligent a lot lately, and you've actually taken the initiative to think about it for me. As your boss, I Very pleased."

   "What are you thinking about, don't be too affectionate!" With a red face, Xia Yan glared at him fiercely, and walked away laboriously with a cane.

  Chu Guang smiled and ignored her. After pondering his expression for a while, he walked straight out of the west gate and found the wrench squatting in the trench.

   climbed out of the trench, looked at the manager with a guilty look on his face, lowered his head, and tried to explain.

   "Sir, I..."

   "Heads up! Chest up, you are the outpost guards, the defenders of order and justice."

   scolded and looked at the captain of the guard who stood upright and raised his head again, and then Chu Guang nodded in approval.

   After a moment's pause, he continued.

   "The gun has just been handed to you. It's normal for you to miss the first hit. You'll find the feeling after practicing a few times. I've seen your training in my eyes, so I don't have to blame myself, but don't let it go!"

  The wrench hurriedly said.

   "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."

   "Also, go to the warehouse in a moment, ask the warehouse manager to get 14 VMs, and send them to your other brothers. You should know how to use them, so I don't need to explain more."

   Including the wrench on his arm, a total of 15 VMs are all specially designed for security guards that Chu Guang asked Xiaoqi 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 it is confirmed that the violation is violated, Chu Guang will be punished according to the facts.

  Although the beta testers on the server are relatively friendly at present, various problems will always arise when there are more people in the future.

  The gun can only deter low-level newcomers and vassal refugees, and higher-level players still have to rely on authority to deter.

  The wrench said imposingly.

"Yes!"

  …

  The fourth day of the Alpha0.7 release.

   Early in the morning, Wrench took the 15 guards of the outpost and lined up neatly at the north gate.

   Practice for several days in a row is still somewhat effective.

   Not to mention how strong the combat power can be, at least the stance and formation look like that, and they are no longer crooked and lazy.

  The daily meals consisted of fish and meat, croissants and green maid were full, and the expressions on their faces were much better than when they had just come out of the predator's dungeon.

   Lu Yang, who came from the Pioneer to **** the workers to the operation camp for a shift change, glanced at the guards who were carrying rifles and stood in a neat line with an unexpected expression.

   These people are poorly equipped, carry heavy rifles and packed luggage on their backs, and wear coats made of mutant reindeer fur. They can only say that they are barely uniform.

  The only piece of high-tech equipment on their bodies is probably the vital sign monitor worn on their arms—the VM commonly found in shelters.

   What is surprising, however, is their discipline.

   However, Lu Yang always felt that they were not like refugees, but more like refugees in the wasteland. Most of the blue jackets in the shelter are clean and handsome, and their appearance is more similar to that of the middle-level and above employees of the company, and they don't look like they can endure hardship.

   However, these people are different, they have suffered a lot from this face.

  While Lu Yang was thinking about something on his mind, the two Marines behind him were deserting the communication channel.

   "What did you eat in the morning?"

   "Go to the blue jacket to buy two buns."

   "Fuck me? What time did you get down?"

   "Five o'clock."

   "Brilliant!"

  Lu Yang coughed and scolded in the communication channel.

"Quiet."

   The two Marines immediately shut their mouths and turned off Mai.

   At this time, the wrench met Lu Yang's eyes, and he walked over with his rifle on his back, standing at attention and giving a neat military salute.

   "Master Manager asked me to wait for you here. He will bring someone up at eight o'clock. Before that, he needs a little time to mobilize his residents."

  Lu Yang looked at him, nodded and said.

   "I see, don't worry."

   He and Chu Guang agreed to start at eight in the morning.

   It's just that the road went smoothly today, and he and his subordinates arrived at their destination half an hour earlier than expected.

   "Allow me to take you to the parlour to rest for a while."

  Lu Yang shook his head and declined.

   "No need, I'll just wait here."

   Wearing power armor, it's the same wherever you wait.

  Anyway, no matter how big the snow was outside, it wouldn't be able to scrape him, and he wouldn't feel the slightest bit of cold.

  Wrench nodded, did not insist any longer, turned around and returned to the queue, standing with the brethren of the guard.

   At this moment, the 2nd basement floor of the shelter is full of excitement.

   The first orientation meeting of the first edition is going on to the highest chao.

   The little players in blue coats, staring at the big eyes of copper bells, came out of their rooms and came to the square in front of the elevator on the B2 floor according to the instructions of the broadcast.

  The dazed emotions resonated in the crowd, almost everyone could not believe their eyes, everything in front of them was real.

   But the truth is right in front of their eyes!

   It's an almost completely real world!

   And they are all standing here in the form of living people, breathing the air here, listening to the roaring voices in their ears, and feeling the blood surging in their chests.

  Dog planning does not lie!

  《Wasteland OL》——

   It's just blown away!

   "Fuck, fuck, fuck!"

   "Is this Vault 404?!"

   "Hey! This wall is so hard! Even the model can't pass through it, and this texture is too real!"

   "Hahahahaha, awesome, I didn't expect to actually play a fully immersive virtual reality game in my lifetime! Brothers wait, I'm going to stand upside down when I'm offline!"

   "Brother, remember to start the live broadcast!"

   "Need help? I'll send you a bottle of fish oil!"

   "Damn, are you really here?"

   is almost the same as the first few waves of newcomers entering the game.

  The newcomers standing on the square in front of the elevator on the B2 floor danced with excitement, touched left and right to see, and hit the wall and jumped on the spot, as if they were holding some kind of grand ceremony.

   Dozens of old players who didn't get tickets for the expansion film stood by and commented, missing their lost youth and past.

  Chu Guang is also observing these players, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

   But to his satisfaction, the players who came in this time didn't seem to have a pantsuit party.

   It seems that this batch of cute newcomers are more reserved.

   Of course, it is also possible that after the advice of the old players in the forum, these new people still have a good understanding of the basic settings of the game, and they have reached the level of cloud players before entering the game.

  For example, Wasteland OLs can only create one account per person, and this account will accompany them from the closed beta to the public beta, and cannot be cancelled. After returning from the tour, the operator will withdraw the account and reserve the right to re-issue the account to others.

   At this time, Chu Guang happened to see that a small player in the crowd suddenly cried out "Ka" and fell to the ground.

   Slightly stunned, Chu Guang said in a low voice.

   "Little Qi."

   Xiaoqi, who was following Chu Guang, raised the camera.

   "What's the matter? Master."

   His gaze stayed on the system interface that only he could see, Chu Guang thought thoughtfully.

   "Does it lead to disconnection if you get too excited?"

Xiaoqi: "Uh, generally speaking, it won't, but it's not so absolute. For example, if the clone body goes into physiological shock because of being too excited, the connection between the conscious body will naturally be interrupted... But this probability is really high. It's too small, can anyone really get excited and go into shock?"

  Chu Guang: "..."

   Physiological shock is okay.

  Chu Guang glanced at the player list, wanting to see which unlucky one was, but as soon as he saw the name, he was slightly stunned.

   Quit smoking?

All right.

   This guy's words are excusable, 80 points is considered quite satisfactory, he is stuck on the edge of the second grade, and he has only drawn so many versions before coming in.

   But then again, what if you take off your helmet and continue to be excited?

   Will it even shock in reality...

  Chu Guang was suddenly worried about him.

not far away.

   hugged the tail of his arms, shook his head in disappointment, and said old-fashioned: "Tsk, this newcomer can't do it, they are all human!"

  Siss gave her a sideways glance: "Can humans no longer satisfy you?"

Tail said dissatisfied: "I mean, isn't there a more fantasy creature? Such as skeleton man, slime or tentacle monster! By the way, if you can customize the character, I want to be a tentacle. .hand!"

  Siss sighed.

   "As expected of Awei."

   I always feel that I have seen a side that I don’t usually see.

  …

   Meanwhile, on the surface.

  Teng Teng is busy rummaging in the hut.

  Yaya walked into the door, glanced left and right, and finally found a rattan beside a wooden machine with his head buried in a box looking for something.

   "Fujito! We're about to leave... Huh? What is this piece of cloth?"

   Looking at the soft and light-textured piece of cloth on the table, Ya Ya took it in her hand with a curious expression.

  Teng Teng turned around, his face flushed red, he rushed up and grabbed it.

   "You are changing, changing... too?"

   Crow: "?"

   "Anyway, I haven't finished this one yet! I'll talk about it when I'm done, ah, by the way, the task, the manager asked me to bring some clothes over there... You can help me get some."

   Looking at Teng Teng who turned back to rummage through boxes, Ya Ya tilted her head in confusion, but went up to help anyway.

   During the chat, Yaya learned that these clothes are made of devil silk.

   These days, Teng Teng has been researching how to weave devil silk into cloth. Some time ago, the process of silk reeling and weaving finally achieved certain results.

  Although the foot-operated loom is a bit backward, the cloth woven can be used. This kind of cloth woven from devil silk is not very warm, but it is strong enough.

   Ordinary steel scissors can’t cut it, you can’t cut it with the mouthparts of the devil moth.

  Teng Teng made a dozen T-shirts with these silk fabrics, but it seems that they can only be worn as underwear.

   "Why do you want to bring this?"

   "I heard that you can redeem rewards!"

   "Huh? Really?"

  Yaya's mind moved a little.

   She just picked a few beautiful mushrooms yesterday, and they were non-poisonous ones.

   "Wait for me! I'll go back and get something!"

   "Ah, do you have time to go back and get something now?"

   "Wait for me! Soon!"

   After such a tossing, when the two of them rushed to the north gate, the team was about to set off.

   "Lord Manager! The clothes I made in the past few days... have you seen enough?" Running out of breath, Fujiteng picked up the clothes in his hand and asked embarrassedly.

   Chu Guang was not picky about the quality of the clothes. After all, he didn't know what kind of products the crew of the Trailblazers liked.

   In such a short time, it is not bad to be able to prepare these.

   is always an attempt.

  Chu Guang nodded in approval and said.

   "Yes, thank you for your hard work."

  Tujitou smiled shyly.

   Just now, her VM received a task completion reminder and rewarded her with 100 activity points.

   At the same time, the next mission was triggered immediately——

  【Task: Sell clothes woven from devil silk to the crew of the Pioneer. 】

  【Reward: For every 1CR obtained, you can exchange 1 silver coin and 1 activity point. 】

   Looking at the task bar, Teng Teng's eyes sparkled.

   I didn’t expect to get activity points before going to the new map, and also unlock the tasks related to the new map.

   This wave is a big profit!

  …

  Because of the accidental death of Maca, and the garbage gentleman who couldn't get out of the resurrection point, only 198 players went to the shift this time.

   But it doesn't matter, Chu Guang will think of a reason at that time, and choose the player who has picked up the most garbage in the past three days to stay and do another round.

   After all players have completed one round, he will count the amount collected by all players within three days, adjust the rules of the expansion pack, and change the task distribution method of rain and dew to centralized registration and merit-based admission.

   In this way, it can not only improve the efficiency of picking up trash, but also allow those players who are not so interested in picking up trash to choose to engage in other jobs that are more interesting.

   Such as kneading dough and making dumplings, or setting up a stall selling barbecue.

   As long as you can help Vault 404 earn "foreign exchange", you can get event points.

   This wave of Chuguang is called light industrial wool!

   As long as you can buy back that industrial machine, it will be worth how much sweat you put in.

  By the way, Yaya came to him to exchange money with banknotes before, and Chu Guang not only gave her silver coins, but also replenished her with the corresponding activity points later.

   Looking at the sparsely combined players, Chu Guang raised the volume and shouted in a loud voice.

   "Everyone gathers."

   "Our allies are waiting for us to come to support, don't make them wait too long."

   "Now, go!"

   A group of people hit the road in a mighty way, and the line was longer than the first time they went.

   In the team of nearly 200 people, three-quarters of them are newbies. These people have not yet recovered from their excitement, and they want to touch everything they see along the way.

   In reality, many of them haven't even seen the shadow of the snow, but in this game, it's already snowing with goose feathers!

  Thanks for the heavy snowfall.

  If we catch up with other seasons, there will be either mutant cockroaches or mice on the road, as well as those flies the size of basins, and hyenas with bared fangs.

   Touching casually, losing an arm is a trivial matter, but losing a life can be a big loss.

   Looking at these not-so-smart blue jackets, the two marines behind Captain Lu glanced at each other.

   "Are these people okay?"

   "Why do I feel so stupid..."

   "Compared to the last 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 has not seen the enthusiasm of those blue jackets with his own eyes, he has listened to the colleagues in the logistics department talking about it.

  Those people worked as if they were desperate, and they wanted to scrape the ground off the ground.

  Perhaps overly optimistic performance is just that.

  Whether they are smart or not, as long as they can do the job well.

   was speechless all the way.

   Before ten o'clock, the group arrived at the action camp. The guards and players were on standby in the center of the camp. Chu Guang met old Luca here.

   Seeing his master, old Luca greeted him excitedly and said good news to him.

   "Sir, we made a full 4530CRCR all day yesterday!"

   105CR more than yesterday?

  Chu Guang looked at him in surprise.

"so much?"

   Old Luca nodded excitedly.

"Yes, my lord, that's all! Thanks to your idea, those snacks like steamed buns and dumplings have contributed at least 800CR! Those in gray coats, they will buy a lot of them at once! Especially this morning , even their section chiefs have come 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 was so generous.

but……

  The human stomach has a limit after all.

   Expecting to make a fortune from this small business is still somewhat difficult after all.

   But optimistically, I earned nearly 10,000 CR in 3 days, which is undoubtedly a good sign.

   Maybe by then, one person won't have to die, and maybe he can earn a hundred thousand?

   Try it anyway.

   At this moment, Werther from the logistics department walked towards the two of them.

   "Are you the manager of Vault 404?"

  Chu Guang looked at him and nodded.

   "It's me, may I ask you?"

   Werther said with a friendly smile.

   "My name is Werther, I work in the logistics department, mainly responsible for the work arrangements of the workers! Our section chief misses you very much, and he asked me to greet you for him."

  Chu Guang also smiled friendly.

   "Please bring my greetings to him too. Just say, 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    was talking, a siren suddenly sounded on the Pioneer not far away.

   Hearing the long blaring siren, the players in the camp showed surprised expressions on their faces.

"What happened?!"

   "Is it triggering the plot??"

"Stimulate!"

   The expressions on the faces of the three of them are invariably the same.

  Chu Guang was the first to come back to his senses and asked Werther.

"What happened?"

   "Please wait...I'm asking."

   Not paying attention to the expression on Chu Guang's face, Werther reached out and pressed the headset and turned his face to get in touch with his colleagues in the logistics department.

   Gradually, his expression became serious.

After    hung 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 that are heading straight towards us. They are quite numerous and well-equipped, and they don't look like refugees in the wasteland."

  Chu Guang said solemnly: "It's definitely not a good person who is running around outside in this ghostly weather! Do you need me to send someone to investigate in front of me—"

  Wetter waved his hand quickly and said, "No, no, our people have already gone. In fact, we also judged the same. Their purpose is too clear, and they are obviously coming for us!"

   After a pause, Werther continued with an ugly expression.

   "I don't want to say that, but we might be in trouble."
