Chapter 165: Going to the market(1/2)
As the system is updated again and again, ordinary players have begun to look for a way out for the future. At present, players with small bases can still survive because their last bottom line has not been touched: food. Even through the winter, the system is still left to fishing
Players have little hope of survival. However, knowledgeable people can also see that if they cannot produce food as in real post-apocalyptic life, sooner or later they will be unable to survive.
It is currently recognized that the most reliable way to obtain food is farming, but farming requires a large outdoor grid, and this is the shortcoming of a small base. In this fishing activity, some players seem to have found the answer to the version, and that is outpost cards. Outpost card occupation
If the restaurant consumes 1 manpower every day, it can get one piece of food every day. A small base with 3 people, using up to three outpost cards, can get 3 pieces of food every day. Everyone believes that even if the version is updated, the outpost card will not depreciate in value.
But the problem is that outpost cards are too rare. In this fishing activity for Beishang Town players, only players from a small base got an outpost card. In the Abandoned City mission, Maya also got an outpost card through points.
After hearing that the player had an outpost card, Shitou immediately contacted him through the radio and expressed his willingness to trade this outpost card. The other party told Shitou that Invincible Base also wanted this outpost card. If Shadow Base wanted it, he would go to the factory at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.
Bid at the edge intersection.
President Shitou was faced with a decision. With Shadow's current net worth, he would definitely be able to get the outpost card, but face-to-face competition would inevitably have negative effects. Shitou then contacted Wudi and asked Wudi if he wanted to bid. After receiving a positive reply, he explained that the other party invited him to bid.
Since Wudi is sure to get the outpost card, he will not participate.
Maya is a little puzzled by this. From a tactical and strategic perspective, it is basically impossible for Invincible to help Shadow anymore. Cars are coming, people are coming, and Invincible is of no value anymore. Shitou thinks Maya is right, but he is a poor man.
Districts must behave like ghettos. Exposing money and falling out with allies are undesirable behaviors.
Shitou gives an example. If there are two ramen shops on one street, these two ramen shops are bound to be incompatible. On the same street, there are two office buildings, both of which are engaged in ramen export business. Their relationship will not be that bad, and there may even be some.
Cooperation is possible. The bigger the business, the calmer the attitude and behavior will be when facing competition from peers.
Shadow started its development from a ramen shop and will develop into a ramen company sooner or later. Maintaining the basic image of a company is good for future development.
However, Shitou himself said that he was not sure whether he needed to consider so much in the game, so it was difficult to make a decision.
…
Time passes day by day, and it’s the last month of winter. Today is the first market in Zuoxian County after the snowstorm. Zuoxian County has Beishang Town and Nanxia Town. As the name suggests, Beishang Town is in the north of Zuoxian County, and Nanxia Town is in the south of Zuoxian County.
.In the previous few market transactions, I learned from the information that Nanxia Town does not have a particularly strong base. Only one of the two small and medium-sized bases has an owner, and 80% of the key personnel were lost in the first defense of the city.
.
This was also Lin Wu's first time to go to the market. After the market opened at one o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Wu and Shana teleported from the base to the market.
The market as a whole is a square and four streets. Each player can rent a stall. The rental fee is one unit of any one of the five major resources. Then you can put the goods you want to sell on the stall and go shopping by yourself. When
When someone asks about the price of goods, the market's exclusive headset will be connected, and the stall owner can bargain with the other party.
Another feature of the market is the shops. There are many shops around the square, such as barber shops that can change hair styles, tattoo shops, foot bath shops, manicure shops and other service-oriented shops. You can accept one item by spending any one unit of the five major resources.
Serve.
Shana heard that there was a hot spring, so she abandoned Lin Wu and went to soak in the hot spring. Lin Wu didn't set up a stall. His goal today was to find and buy dagger weapons with frontal execution capabilities.
The four streets are Weapons and Equipment Street, Supplies Street, Sundries Street and Strange Objects Street. There is no mandatory requirement to place corresponding goods, but most stall owners will still choose the corresponding streets in order to make it easier to sell their goods. Streets
The length is proportional to the number of stalls.
Lin Wu first went to the Material Street and found that most of the stalls were selling building materials, and a few stalls were selling gasoline packs, ammunition packs and medical packs. Food packs were extremely rare. Driven by curiosity, Lin Wu asked the stall owner, who quoted the standard exchange rate.
1 food pack can be exchanged for 3 building material packs or 2 gas packs and medical packs.
The prices of the four major material packages are stable, but the ammo package is the weirdest, with prices ranging from high to low. There is an ammo package that requires three food packages in exchange, and two ammo packages that require one food package.
These rubbish things were Shi Shi's business, Lin Wu just looked at them casually.
Then Lin Wu went to the Sundry Street, mainly selling materials, mainly level 2 or 3 materials such as iron blocks. Lin Wu used two pistol bullets to exchange for 30 electronic components at a stall, and then was caught by Maya.
Lin Wu pulled Maya to the side and whispered. Only then did Maya know that Lin Wu had such an evil plan. He wanted to rob the safe house of Nightmare, and the worst thing he could do was not tell her. Maya let Lin Wu play by himself, leaving this matter to his own hands.
Let her handle it.
"Where's Shanna?"
"spa."
"Tell her that I will wait for her at Pillar 4 of the square in half an hour."
Lin Wu asked: "Are you going to get a manicure?"
Maya was speechless: "Shana is very good at bargaining. I need to purchase a batch of medical supplies."
"oh."
Lin Wu was about to walk away when Maya looked to the left of the street and said, "Did you see the group of people 20 meters away? The group of people with a red ribbon tied to their left arm."
Lin Wu stepped forward and looked: "Two women and three men. Who are they?"
Maya said: "A member of Chibei, the only small and medium-sized base in Nanxia Town. It is said that this group of people is not a good person and has a bad reputation in Nanxia Town."
Lin Wu said: "We have a bad reputation recently. Others smile when they see us on the outside, but behind the scenes we are mum."
Maya said: "Maybe it's just a prejudice. If you want a dagger, it's best to go to Strange Object Street."
Lin Wu couldn't understand: "Why not go to the weapons and equipment street?"
Maya said: "Because the peanuts are over there." After that, she left.
"A very reasonable explanation." Lin Wu replied to Maya's back and pressed the headset: "Call the puppy."
Shana: "What's the matter, little pig?"
Lin Wu said: "Maya asked you to meet her at Pillar 4 of the square in half an hour."
Shanna: "Xiao Zhu's teammates received it."
Childish devil, you want to take advantage of this!
…
The Street of Strange Objects is full of all sorts of things. Since there are so many strange props in the Home Game, this street has the largest number of people shopping.
The first stall attracted Lin Wu. It was a flashlight, but it was not an ordinary flashlight, but a solar flashlight. It can light up under the sun, but it cannot light up without the sun. If you think this is waste, then you
That's wrong. Lin Wu, like everyone else, laughed out loud when he saw the flashlight. Afterwards, Su Shi wanted to beat Lin Wu to death because all solar equipment, regardless of size, can break out solar panel fragments. It's not just about making solar panels.
Indispensable items are still very rare.
At the second stall, Lin Wu fell in love with the rat cage. Currently, except for the sewers, rats are not seen in most places in the game. The reason why Lin Wu bought the rat cage is because of his hunter profession, which can be obtained by killing one mammal every day.
A food unit can't defeat a bear, so why can't it bully a mouse? Lin Wu exchanged a pistol bullet for the mouse cage.
Bullets are currently recognized as hard currency by all players. Pistol bullets are the basic currency. The exchange rates for other bullets vary. The mainstream exchange rate in the market before the blizzard is that one 5.56 rifle bullet is equal to two pistol bullets, and 7.62 is equal to three pistol bullets.
..50 bullets are theoretically considered 5 pistol bullets, but they are expensive and have no market, so no one is selling them.
The exchange rate of pistol bullets has increased today. The reason is that the doctor's reform has caused players to be more cautious when dealing with zombies and use more long-range attacks. Pistols are currently the mainstream firearms and will occupy the mainstream position for a long time. Therefore, pistol bullets are currently and
The exchange rate for 5.56 bullets is 1:1.
Because of this, Peanut was arranged by Maya to go to Weapons Street and use pistol bullets to purchase .22 and 5.56 bullets.
The third stall sold Cad knives. Since the stall owner only sold this weapon, he did not go to the weapons street to set up a stall. This is a very beautiful and unique dagger, and the statistics are also very eye-catching, but only the additional
Endurance entry.
Lin Wu bought a display mirror at the fourth stall. This thing was rare, but not uncommon. Lin Wu casually gave him a pistol bullet and got it in exchange.
The fifth stall sells skill books, and he should be selling them on a consignment basis to a friend or the base. There is a hunter skill book among them. Lin Wu was too lazy to bargain, so he took ten rounds of bullets in exchange. Lin Wu asked the stall owner if he still had a hunter skill book? The other party
Let Lin Wu return to the stall after an hour.
The seller knew that someone had a hunter skill book, so he found the person's stall and contacted the person. He exchanged five bullets for the hunter skill book, and then hung it on his stall, earning five bullets for free. In total, Lin Wu had already
Got 3 hunter skill books.
The sixth stall sold books, and all they sold were reference books, such as an introduction to lathes. Lin Wu didn't understand why he needed to get started with lathes. In addition, there were also twenty books in total such as automobile repair and maintenance, Compendium of Materia Medica, Chemical Engineering Encyclopedia, and World Knowledge Yearbook.
Five books, I don’t know which bookstore the owner stole from.
Lin Wu contacted the stall owner: "Pack 25 copies and set a price."
Stall owner: "I sell whatever I want, and I want to give it to you."
Lin Wu asked: "Give it to me?" He subconsciously didn't like this person. When a stranger shows kindness to you for no reason, you must be vigilant.
The stall owner asked: "Would you like to give it to you?"
Lin Wu: "Yes." It depends on what tricks you play.
The stall owner teleported back to the stall. He was a male, in his thirties, with hair oil and a haircut. He was wearing a suit and looked a bit like an executive. Lin Wu noticed that the stall owner had a red band tied around his left arm.
Ribbon, obviously the stall owner is the person Maya mentioned Chibei before.
The stall owner looked at Lin Wu for a while: "Master Wisdom? Double Wisdom?"
Lin Wu asked back: "When buying a book, do you still need to look at its attributes?"
The stall owner got straight to the point: "I am the commander of Chibei Base in Nanxia Town, and my name is Soy Sauce."
Lin Wu said: "I am the commander of Wudi Base, my name is Wudi."
Soy Sauce was a little surprised: "Are you invincible?"
"No, I'm kidding. My name is Liang Ren, and I'm at Happy Base in Beishang Town."
Soy Sauce said with a smile and continued: "Our base is recruiting engineers to be in charge of the production room. Main intelligence is enough, dual intelligence is best. The only condition is that you can endure loneliness."
Lin Wu said: "But I'm in Beishang Town."
