Chapter 56: Establishing a Processing Workshop
After having the funds in hand, Tang Zhen began his plan.
First, the equipment is used. The weapons used by the wanderers are very messy, most of which are of poor quality. On the battlefield of life and death, a piece of equipment with problems may very likely take the user's life.
Tang Zhen didn't want his men to wear this kind of equipment to fight monsters, so he must do a good job in protection.
Originally, he planned to equip his future subordinates with protective gear such as explosion-proof armor, but after reading some comments on the Internet, he found that the defense function of this explosion-proof armor is very limited and is not practical for cold weapons battles.
It seems that if conditions permit, you still need to make it yourself, and if you really can't hire someone to make it.
Tang Zhen only needs someone to process the appropriate metal into parts and then send it to another world for assembly. If it really doesn't work, find an excuse, complete it directly, and then take it to the Loucheng World.
These days, I have everything I do, but I just make some armor. I believe no one will make a fuss.
In addition to the information about this plate armor, Tang Zhen also paid attention to the information about the anti-spin suit and the chain mail, one of which was made of a metal spring pad that attracted his attention.
This kind of chain mail has a good appearance and is said to have good protection. The price is also relatively suitable. The price of a set of long chain mail is about 2,000 yuan. Tang Zhen calculated it. If he bought a set of 1O, the price would be about 20,000 yuan.
Of course, Tang Zhen would not buy so many at once. He plans to buy a few sets first to see the effect. If possible, then produce them yourself.
After paying, he left the address, Tang Zhen ordered several sets of anti-sting suits, and then began to browse weapons such as crossbows.
These things are also for sale online, but the quality is hard to say. Tang Zhen chose several more famous shops and ordered ten pieces for payment.
After estimating the price of entrusting the factory to make a set of armor, Tang Zhen felt it was a bit expensive. Even though he had a large amount of money in his hands now, it did not mean that he could be wasted at will.
Should I hire a group of people to process and produce them by myself?
Tang Zhen thought to himself, so he took out the phone and called a former worker.
The man's name is Wang Daqing. He lives in the countryside and is really honest. He has worked with Tang Zhen. Because he was bullied by a gangster once, only Tang Zhen stood up to help him. Wang Daqing recognized Tang Zhen as his friend, and the two often had phone calls.
Wang Daqing is now working as a farmer at home, serving his sickly old mother. During the slack season, he will go to the city to do odd jobs to supplement his family income.
When he received a call from Tang Zhen, Wang Daqing was working in the field. He heard that Tang Zhen was going to rent his house from them and asked someone to work, he patted his chest and said that the matter was on him.
The two settled the matter, and Tang Zhen called his sister again, chatted for a few simple words, and told her that she had bought a house in the provincial capital, and she could move in at any time.
He sent the keys later and asked his sister to wait for him at the school gate.
After Tang Zhen sent the keys, he began to be busy purchasing materials again.
Welding machines, cutting machines, angle grinders, drilling, polishing, and various machinery and equipment are all purchased. In addition, there are various consumables. Tang Zhen also bought a lot of them to avoid tossing back and forth.
Tang Zhen chose a store with good reputation, purchased it at one time, and then entrusted it to deliver the goods by address.
After leaving this store, Tang Zhen came to the building materials market again.
Patterned steel plate, 3o4 stainless steel plate, titanium steel plate, and a batch of steel pipes of different specifications. Tang Zhen also waved his hand and paid the bill to deliver the goods.
Next, Tang Zhen went to many places and bought leather, canvas, paint and other items. Even though he was incredible, he was still exhausted.
Tang Zhen, who felt that there was no car, came to the car shop without stopping and bought an off-road vehicle worth more than 300,000 yuan as a means of transportation.
After finishing the procedures, Tang Zhen drove back to his place of residence and found paper and pen to count the supplies he purchased.
In order to keep a low profile, Tang Zhen did not intend to bring the motor vehicle to the world of Loucheng. However, with the arrival of the corpse clan, he could no longer keep a low profile. Only by taking this opportunity to rise strongly can he achieve his goals earlier.
Considering the geographical situation of the Loucheng world, ordinary cars are definitely not suitable for use. However, some agricultural tractors look quite suitable and are also solid and resistant to manufacturing.
Tang Zhen took a fancy to a front afterburner four-wheel drive agricultural tractor. The tires are thick and the horsepower is also very strong. I believe that it can adapt to the landform of the Loucheng world.
At that time, a tow bucket can be used to transport personnel and supplies, and the degree of travel can be greatly improved. Moreover, Tang Zhen's space can be installed in this size, so he will be powerless if he is bigger.
After sorting out a series of matters, he drove to the village where Wang Daqing's family was located early the next morning.
After driving for a few hours, Tang Zhen came to the small village where Wang Daqing's family was located, a place with beautiful scenery along the mountains and rivers.
Wang Daqing, who received the call, was already waiting for Tang Zhen at the entrance of the village. When he saw him coming, he got into the car to lead the way and went straight to his home.
Wang Daqing's family was on the edge of the village, and there was a large courtyard covering an area of 2,000 square meters. At this time, the courtyard was filled with all kinds of supplies.
After meeting Wang Daqing's mother and giving the gifts she bought, Tang Zhen and Wang Daqing came to the yard to discuss.
Tang Zhen told Wang Daqing that he met a big director and got a batch of props from the other party. Based on the idea of making money, he called Wang Daqing.
He rented Wang Daqing's venue and gave him 5,000 yuan a month. He was responsible for the person in charge of the work and gave him another 10,000 yuan a month, but the premise was that he had to do his job well.
Regardless of whether Wang Daqing believed Tang Zhen’s statement or not, he earned 15,000 yuan a month. Wang Daqing nodded without hesitation and agreed.
After the communication between the two parties is completed, the next thing will be easier.
Tang Zhen first gave Wang Daqing 50,000 yuan and asked him to find someone to build a simple color steel shed in the yard so that he could block the outsiders' vision.
Then he found a group of helpers, along with electricians, and completed the installation and connection of the equipment and circuit.
There are many young and strong people in the village who work in their spare time and are also skilled in electric welding and cutting techniques. Wang Daqing went out for a walk and attracted six people.
These people are naturally very happy to be able to work at home and have a low salary.
Seeing that the man was already in hand, Tang Zhen handed a drawing to Wang Daqing. This was a drawing of armor. The front, chest and back center were protected by a whole piece of steel plate, and holes were drilled on the waist and abdomen. Rivets were used to arrange them on thick cowhide.
Inside the cowhide, a layer of canvas has to be sewn, with a total weight of nearly twenty kilograms. There are also helmets, leg armor and other parts, which look quite complicated.
Tang Zhen asked for quality assurance, and as for the degree, I believe Wang Daqing knew it.
This was the first item that Tang Zhen asked to make, with a total of 1,000 pieces. If the materials were not enough, Tang Zhen asked Wang Daqing to order the goods directly, and at the same time transferred him 100,000 yuan.
Tell Wang Daqing that he was going to the mountainous area and it would take half a month to come again. He might not be able to contact him during this period, so he was worried about the matter here. Wang Daqing even said that Brother Tang was worried and would never disappoint you.
