My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

From the end of August to the beginning of December.

Counting the days, markets of various sizes in the territory have been open for more than three months.

Now, the most difficult period has been successfully passed, and it has officially entered the prosperous stage of large-scale circulation.

At the beginning of the month, Hope Village made a rough count of the funds in the hands of the villagers.

The average number is 12 copper coins and 7 iron coins, and the median is 6 copper coins and 2 iron coins.

Based on the current price of one kilogram of coarse grains, which is 2 iron coins, most people can purchase more than thirty kilograms of grain with the funds in their hands, and if the grain price adjustment is completed, this number will double to sixty kilograms.

This is already an astonishing number.

After all, based on personal food consumption, sixty pounds is enough to keep an adult alive for three months or even four months without activity.

For the refugees in the origin camp who were previously short of food and clothing, and it might take two days to eat a meal during heavy snowfall, the 60 kilograms of food reserves are undoubtedly a "rich fortune".

They no longer worry about what to eat tomorrow, because the Tianyuan iron coins and copper coins in their hands can be exchanged for a lot of food from the village logistics department without any barriers.

They no longer worry about how to survive the next disaster, because under the precise and efficient arrangement of the village management and the general direction of the lord, everyone can find the job responsibilities that best suit them.

Life seems to have returned to normal, and order seems to have been re-established here.

And once you settle down, look at the funds you have saved.

Of course.

Most people are willing to think about how to improve their lives.

This change in the way of thinking indirectly led to the spontaneous start of "inflation" in the monetary system.

Of course, although this expansion is benign and can guide the market in a healthier direction.

But no matter what, the money in my hands is depreciating every day when I open my eyes.

For those in the first echelon of scavengers, they are more willing to invest their funds.

Whether it is an industry or oneself.

As long as you can increase your own strength, then the money is worth spending.

However

This expansion and consumption is limited to the "money" system.

Not only have the contribution points and honor points at a higher level not expanded, but they have continued to shrink!

"Are you crazy? Selling a bionic body for two hundred contribution points???"

It only costs 500 points to stay in Tianyuan Dungeon. How dare a product made in a factory be sold at such an expensive price?

Even if calculated according to the highest standards, after deducting raw material and labor costs, other expenses, etc., the profit margin is full.

It shouldn't be so outrageous, right? !

If this thing can be sold, why not just scavenge and set up a factory here to make money?

"I've already said that this is a factory run by the lord, and I'm just the factory director he hired."

"The price was not set by me, but by the lord."

Brother understand said helplessly.

Speaking of the issue of bionic body price, not only a few people cannot understand it.

He has been having a lot of headaches about this matter these days.

But for the price, it was a fixed price from the lord, so he could only act in accordance with the rules and regulations.

"The bionic body does not just sell one thing, we also provide many follow-up services."

"But it's not officially on sale yet. If you want to know more, come back in a few days."

The factory test products have indeed rolled off the production line.

But it also takes some time to train workers, prepare raw materials, and conduct reliability testing.

Just when he was about to find a reason to send away the idlers blocking the door, the game panel suddenly opened.

A private chat message popped up, and it turned out to be

[Suma: If they want to try it, they can use our test product. Also tell them that they can get a 10% discount on reservations made today, and you can arrange the specific operations. 】

Yo!

Brother Dong's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know how the lord knew what was going on here, this news made him excited.

Unlike the dead wages in other places, the salary given to him by the underworld factory was not simple currency.

Not only are there contribution points and honor point rewards, but there are even certain share incentives based on performance.

And he didn't know the others, but the few in front of him were all big businessmen.

"In a few days"

"We've been here for this weather, can't we give it a try today?" The male gunman said with some reluctance: "Don't worry, we will never reveal it!"

"If you say that, it's not easy to come to this weather."

Brother understand shook his neck and pretended to be embarrassed, but in fact he was already happy inside.

Several people were pulling back and forth at the door until the dreamer reluctantly handed over the red envelope.

He then gave way to the door and led people towards the industrial park with a smile.

"Who would have thought that just two months ago, this place was still a deserted muddy land." Brother Dong introduced with emotion: "These factories are thanks to the increase in the output of the steel plant, otherwise it would take more time to build them." ."

"I see, you didn't even have time to clean up the ground in the park, it's really in a bad state." The old Taoist nodded.

"Haha, I'm used to seeing it these days, so I think it's okay. Moreover, these infrastructures can be built slowly later. After all, it's a wasteland. It's definitely more important to put it into production first."

"Understand, enjoyment comes second after all."

The street in the neighborhood outside is still a gravel road, but inside the park there are acres and acres of simply treated land.

Because of the 100% humidity, most of the ground is very wet, and you will leave an obvious footprint when you step on it.

"You must have more or less guessed the original intention of the lord to create bionic bodies when you came here today, right?" Walking into the park, Brother Dong deliberately lowered his voice and suddenly asked.

"Is it that accident?" The male gunman quickened his pace and said solemnly: "If we use human lives to explore dangerous places in the city, we don't know how much we will have to pay. In fact, this is the first time I heard about the three bionic bodies. Words, I have roughly guessed its function, but I don’t know how we should control this thing to explore."

"It seems that you understand very well." Brother Dong said the mantra habitually, and then nodded and said: "Yes, bionic bodies can take our place in some dangerous environments to explore and avoid most dangers. You just don't have it now. After seeing the complex manufacturing process and the research and development costs of supporting software, I feel that these two hundred points are expensive."

"Believe me, after you try it out, even if it is doubled, you will feel it is worth it."

He did not mention the specific process.

But the six factories in the park have proven that what they said is true.

Each of these simple workshops built with steel frames is 300 square meters in size and has basic dust-free equipment.

Through the outer plastic dust-shielding device, you can vaguely see the large and small equipment placed inside.

Many workers who have been trained are operating the equipment, making buzzing sounds from time to time.

"There are already so many people?"

"Well, there are fifty-two people now, and it is estimated that the number will be expanded to about a hundred people in the future."

"What the hell, there are so many people?" The old Taoist's eyes widened.

Because of the relationship between the two, he knew the general situation of Lianmeng Steel Factory.

There are currently only 80 employees there, and the daily salary expenditure alone costs about 2,000 iron coins.

According to the salary posted before by "No one knows better than me", it is 35 iron coins a day.

One hundred people, that’s 3,500 iron coins!

Good guy, this day's expenditure is almost catching up with their entire accumulation now.

After knowing the cost, Lao Dao was no longer embarrassed to ask if it could be cheaper due to the outrageous price quoted by Brother Dong.

Not counting the expenditure on research and development of this technology, what we can see now is so outrageous.

Calculating two hundred contribution points, it's really not expensive.

Continuing to walk into the park, Brother Dong introduced us all the way, and soon we arrived at the last huge factory building.

After pushing open several doors in succession, a dry feeling suddenly came over me.

The clever humidity isolation design keeps the internal humidity basically in a constant humidity state, keeping it at around 60.

In the center of the field, a huge black device came into view, attracting the attention of everyone present.

"That is"

"This is the virtual reality server group."

Behind the device, a slovenly face appeared, and he replied feebly.

"He is the deputy director of the Underworld Factory, Li Xing."

"If it's more convenient, you can call me the King of Hell and call him the Judge."

Hearing Brother Dong's introduction, Li Xing rolled his eyes, stretched and stood up from the chair.

"You are here to test the real world, right? The cost is fifty copper coins per person, please pay first."

"What? So expensive?"

Viagra, who had been silent all this time, couldn't hold it in any longer.

Fifty copper coins can be exchanged for 500 kilograms of grain at the logistics office, but you can only test it once here?

"Of course, the price of starting this big thing is not small. If you want to enter the 'real world' but feel it is expensive, you can definitely bring in more people to share the cost."

"The real world? Running in the virtual world?"

Tao Mengzhe's eyes lit up, interrupting Viagra's chatter about to be exported.

A brand new term, running in virtual reality?

Before this, he had not been able to form a specific concept of how to control bionic bodies.

But if you join the virtual realm

Good guy, can it be possible to achieve holographic simulation and form a picture of real people exploring it in real time?

However, after noticing the surprise on the dreamer's face, Li Xing and Brother Dong looked at each other, with meaningful smiles on their faces.

Sure enough, it is comfortable to deal with smart people.

Basically, as long as some necessary connections are given, they can connect all the clues and get the answer.

"Don't think too much. What we want to test now is only version 0 of the real world. There are too many powerful functions. Don't expect it. It's already a miracle if it can run."

As Li Xing spoke, he pointed to the corner of the factory.

Following his guidance, everyone saw some "strange" things there.

There is a long doll that looks like a fish and is about 60 centimeters long.

It has a truck shape and looks like a crudely made car model.

There was a person whose face was vague and could only be roughly distinguished from the outline as a human being, but he was only a dwarf less than one meter tall.

There were also several Radiant Beast models that ordinary people couldn't recognize, but were familiar to everyone present.

"Is that the bionic body?"

The nuclear rifle wiped his eyes and spoke in disbelief.

In his imagination, no matter how bad the craftsmanship of bionic bodies is, they must at least have some connections with humans, right?

But among all the things here, only the dwarf can see, and the rest

"Whether it works or not, you will know after you give it a try."

"Whether it works or not, I believe you will be able to decide for yourself after a while."

Li Xing spoke confidently.

As outrageous as these gadgets may seem, their appearance and construction shouldn't be exactly the same.

But in fact, its internal parts are basically universal, and repairs only require replacing damaged modules.

There is no point in making a special bionic body according to each person's unique needs. Except for the needs of the lord, it is impossible for the Hell Factory to develop an independent parts assembly line for a certain user.

On the contrary, if the user can adapt to one of the bionic bodies, the other bionic bodies can also quickly get used to it.

This is what the developers originally wanted to achieve!

"Okay, fifty copper coins, just fifty copper coins, here you go."

Taking out the money bag from his arms, Wei Wei eagerly counted out fifty copper coins and handed them over.

Several other people also took out copper coins to pay the money quite distressedly.

This is indeed not a small sum of money.

Even they had to go through a lot of dangerous places to accumulate the amount they have now.

However, the nuclear rifle performed the easiest, which may have a lot to do with the fact that the military camp provides food and accommodation.

"Thank you for your patronage."

Brother Dong stepped forward, took the money with a smile on his face, and soon brought out five simple patch helmets.

As a device that opens in a small area of ​​virtual reality, there is an induced current inside the helmet, which can reduce the loss caused by wireless transmission.

Even if only five people are simulated, the energy consumption required is within the acceptable range.

"Wait, don't move."

"okay!"

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, several people looked around nervously.

After about a minute, a dizzying feeling came and the vision began to blur.

Various indescribable colors began to flip, twist, stretch, and overlap before my eyes.

Colorful threads began to reconstruct in the field of vision, and after a while a general outline was drawn.

This is not the first time I have entered the virtual realm, but compared to the mildness before, this time it is obviously more intense and more real.

A faint breeze blew across his face, and the natural smell of leather lingered on the tip of his nose.

The nuclear rifle was the first to come to his senses, shook his head and looked around.

Where everyone is now is the entrance to an open hall, with light reflected behind two glass doors.

An eye-catching signboard hangs above the glass door, with two huge Chinese characters written on it:

Real world.

"This is"

Pushing open the glass door, the nuclear-powered rifle couldn't help but be stunned at the door.

The first thing that catches the eye is a huge bar made of marble, about ten meters long.

Behind the bar, there are two rows of cabinets connected to the ceiling, separated by acrylic boards. For the time being, only a golden trophy is placed.

A figure whose face was covered in mist and couldn't see clearly was standing in the bar, looking at each other with several people.

A very strange feeling.

Although they couldn't see the other person's expression, several people present felt that the other person seemed to be expressing goodwill and smiling at them.

"Warriors, welcome to the true world!"
