  Chapter 76 The Warehouse Clerk Who Can Do Farming

"Old Brother, why don’t you electric stove It's so easy to use."

"...It may be that the power is not enough. I will ponder over and see if I can use these copper wires to build a larger generator."

"Old Brother, steady!"

When leaving the woodworking hut, Chu Guang passed by the industrial area and saw several players in front of the steel-making blast furnace, wondering how to improve the steel-making technology.

The electric furnace improved from waste products seems to have failed. The problem seems to be the power. The two players are discussing how to imitate a more powerful generator.

It would be great if it succeeded.

Silently cheering in his heart, Chu Guang, carrying a hammer, walked to the side of the brick kiln and found the [Knife under the knife] who was instructing other players to burn bricks.

Since Old Bai was transferred to hunter player, the position of building Captain has fallen on the sword brother who was born in civil engineering.

"The three-meter-high wall is still too short. I don't know when the robber's second round offensive will come. I plan to strengthen the defense of the outpost. Do you have any good suggestions?"

p>

didn't expect manager to ask myself to discuss such an important issue.

Retaining people under the knife was a surprise in my heart, and I immediately thought about it.

"From the perspective of robber weapons, they use Molotov cocktails, projectiles, and light weapons. Although the wall can hardly prevent them from breaking through our line of defense, the advantages provided to us in the actual firefight are not Big!"

"My suggestion is that we can focus on building materials to build 3~4 meters high bunker outside the wall, and then use Z-shaped trenches to connect these bunker!"

Hearing this little player’s suggestion, Chu Guang eyes shined.

This idea is really good.

The robber creature is very similar to the goblins in the fantasy movie. Its firepower and melee ability are not very strong, and its advantages are intimidation and harassment.

Intimidation is of no use to players, it will only make these lunatics more excited. The only thing that needs to be restricted is their ability to harass.

A bunker provides a frontal suppression effect, and the trenches spread out on the flanks can perfectly limit the robber's mobility.

Is the robber that has lost its mobility still a robber?

Those are all mobile "experience packs"!    Even if they gritted their teeth and broke through the defense gap and jumped into the trenches, what awaits them is a more cruel foul wind and bloody rain.

It's a problem of ability to shoot people without aiming at them.

Do I still need to worry about this when I fight bayonet in the trenches?

In the minds of these players, there is no concept of retreat. It kills the red eye, even if you want to take a few away.

Thinking of this, Chu Guang immediately made a decision.

"Just do it, how many manpower do you need?"

Totally, opened the mouth and said.

"Give me 20 people, and I can do it in three days! 30 people, two days at most!"

The difficulty of digging trenches is not that great. There are tools such as shovel, and a few more A power player, it is estimated that it will be done in less than a day.

The main structure is dug out first, when the time comes, it is slowly reinforced with wood.

As for the bunker.

The type of concrete pouring is not available, and the defensive power overflows too much. Dragging some hardened cement blocks from the abandoned construction site, using wood and discarded steel bars to make beams, building a soil bunker is not a problem.

Chu Guang nodded.

"I'll give you 40 people!"

"40? Wouldn't it be too much." The knife was left in a daze.

Chu Guang shook the head.

"What we lack is not people, but time. A batch of reinforcements will arrive on the surface tomorrow. When the time comes, I will give you all these newcomers."

A full 40 people have obtained the qualifications of the closed beta, the number has reached the largest number in the past.

With so many newcomers pouring into the game, they have to find something to do, so many people in the province are running around like flies in the base.

By the way, let them also familiarize themselves with the gangster culture in Vault 404.

In order to make the job of keeping people under the knife pay enough attention to this task, Chu Guang paused for a while after speaking, and continued to speak in a serious tone.

"This task is very important, I hope you take it seriously. In addition, your contribution point and rewards will be determined by the quality of the fortifications."

"If in the next battle , The fortifications you designed perform well, and there will be additional rewards."

Although the manager didn’t tell him how much the reward was, it’s just as if this NPC is really indifferent. Substitute it into the hidden task.

He straightened up excitedly, pressed his right fist to his left chest, and said full of energy.

"Guaranteed to complete the task!"

"Very good."

Chu Guang is satisfied with nodded.

"For the rest of the day, you first take out the plan, mark it outside the fence, and start construction immediately tomorrow morning."

"Go."

p>

……

I caught a scout last night, and there was no movement on the robber all day, and I don’t know what the bloodhand clan people are thinking.

Are you planning to wait for them to attack?

Neither the raiders who fought the autumn wind nor the scouts returned, the other party should be aware that they will never return even if they are dull.

The hunter squads scattered on the north and east sides of the wetland park are not only hunting, but also hunting robber scouts in coordination with the observation points.

It’s troublesome to wear the outer skeleton all the time, especially with a big hammer weighing 20 to 30 kg on my back.

Chu Guang walked to the generator and unloaded the equipment, found a wire to connect the KV-1 outer skeleton with power, started charging, and then patrolled in the outpost.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that the two players were squatting in the corner of the granary, discussing something whispering, so he approached and took a look.

"What are you doing?"

The two players squatting on the ground got up.

"Dear manager, we think this thing is familiar, a bit like the green wheat we ate before."

Then, the player stretched out his index finger and pointed to the granary. A few cyan-green wheat ears dangling on the side.

In fact, it is not so much wheat ears, but its shape is more like dog's tail grass. There are a bunch of unspread ears on the thin rods, and one after another cyan-green seeds of sesame seeds are sandwiched under the thin cilia on the edges.

Chu Guang has never planted this thing. He has only planted croissant potatoes before, but has not grown it yet.

Although I have imported a lot of green wheat before, I have never seen where the green wheat comes from, and I can't make up my mind for a while.

Thinking that there was a savvy person in the outpost, Chu Guang went to the warehouse, called the old Luca who was standing there and took him to the granary. .

Luca just took a look, and didn't squat down to confirm, so he nodded and said in a positive tone.

"My lord, this is indeed green wheat, and it looks like it has grown half a month. However, the seedlings are not in time, and they seem to fall. In addition, the frost has fallen this morning, Snow will fall in two days at the latest. I am afraid that this seedling will not survive for a few days."

What the hell?

Is it really green wheat?    Staring at the few on the verge of collapse seedlings on the ground for a while, Chu Guang guessed that it might have sprinkled a few grains there while moving the grain.

"Will you grow this stuff?"

"My lord, you are joking, the old slaves have done several decades of farm work... Besides, green wheat is not wheat, this Growing crops are actually made from dog’s tail grass, so it’s not difficult to grow them. For example, croissant potatoes, you have to wait for the sprouts to be cut and plastered. For green wheat, you don’t even need to make seeds. Find a plot of land to sprinkle. Just go down and wait two or three months to grow a crop, just like grass." Luca whispered.

"So magical?" Chu Guang stunned.

"It's not magic, mainly... this kind of food is not a good thing, it is generally for people like us to eat. If you have seen what it looks like when it is cut, you will know Why did I say that. The sour nose smells really like grass, and it only gets better after exposure to the sun."

Chu Guang: "..."

Luca glanced at Chu Guang cautiously and continued talking.

"But this thing is also good, it grows fast, roots deep, can absorb, can withstand drought, can live without a bad temperature, and it doesn’t require much care. The only drawback is that it’s cut in one crop. Not too much, the yield is not good."

"The ears can be cut down to fill the belly and feed the animals. The poles are burned to ashes, and they can be used as potash fertilizer when they are turned into the soil, or they can be cut. It’s also good to take compost to ferment...this thing, we usually rotate crops with other crops."

"If there is some surplus fertilizer in the soil, for example, just plant other crops, and sow the seeds. It’s not a problem to produce four or five hundred catties per mu. Single species will yield average harvests. The ears are not big and small, so they are about the same length as yours on the side of the wall. Ten catties per mu is enough."

"...In my impression, merchants from the north will buy some of this food, and the nearby survivor strongholds will also buy some, and those from the south will rarely buy it."

Before, Chu Guang was always curious about what kind of variant this green wheat is, and now he has solved the case.

After working on it for a long time, it turns out that the dog's tail is a mutation?

No wonder the survivors of Bette Street grind this thing into pancakes, or boil it into a paste on fire, presumably to volatilize more oxalic acid.

So I have been feeding the players?

Chu Guang's expression is a bit subtle.

In short, this information should not be updated on the official website.

"Then what kind of crops did you grow before?" Chu Guang turned off the topic and continued to ask.

"A lot, green wheat and croissant potatoes are the cheapest, available in all seasons. Fruits and vegetables will be more expensive, and there are more plants in the greenhouse. The red rib leaves are the most profitable and good-selling products. When dried, it can be used as tobacco leaves. Both scavengers and merchants can afford to consume it. I think some people use it as a substitute for spices to cover up part of the smell. Apart from this there is also a crop called kamu tree, It will bear a yellow-green fruit."

"What is that?" Chu Guang asked immediately.

Luca shook the head and said.

"My lord, how can the farmer talk to people like us? I only saw merchants from Boulder City come and buy the whole box. Seriously, that thing is not delicious. It bites like a tire. But cutting the bark can get a lot of oil. Our generator burns that thing. It can be used after a little bit of purification."

Chu Guang thought for a moment.

"Maybe that camu fruit is not for food."

With Luca's level of knowledge, of course he can't understand this sentence, but he is very clever. He didn't say, but waited respectfully, only answering the questions asked by the master.

Chu Guang took out a small notebook and wrote a few pens on it.

【1. Tips for waste soil: Brown Farm has an economic crop called Camu Tree. The fruit is suspected to be able to extract rubber, and tree oil can be used as fuel. 】

【2. Force intelligence: Brown Farm has close business dealings with the outside world, is enslaved and hoards a certain number of weapons, and deliberately hides its strength. Its real economic situation and battle strength may be slightly stronger than it appears on the surface. The threat level is appropriately raised from C- to C, and the power favorability remains neutral (0). 】

【3. Force intelligence: Refuge No. 404 outpost has a harmonious relationship with the scavengers on Beit Street, the threat level remains unchanged at E-, and the influence rating has been increased from neutral (30) to friendly (50) ). ]

[4. Newly added NPC in the outpost: Warehouse Clerk Luca. The old Luca was a serf with a miserable life. After being rescued from the gun by the manager, he swore allegiance to the refuge. The ideal is to make the wasteland no longer be hungry.

He suffers from severe arthritis in both legs, and he can’t do heavy work. Helping him with moving things may be a good way to increase his favorability. Please also note that theft and other behaviors will reduce his Your evaluation. In addition, his experience with various plants on the waste soil is a valuable asset, and may be of great use during the spring plowing season. 】

The update of today's official website.
