Chapter 440: Purchasing Gasoline
As soon as the style of painting changed, the oppressive atmosphere dissipated in an instant.
After starting the crossing, Jiang Chen appeared directly on Coconut Fruit Island.
After checking his phone as usual and confirming that there was no caller ID, Jiang Chen walked towards the beach.
The two construction robots were still busy in front of the construction site, and after taking out the tablet to check the progress of the project, Jiang Chen didn't bother them anymore and walked straight to his speedboat. Taking out the spare oil drum and filling the tank, he skillfully started the speedboat and headed in the direction of Koro Island.
By this time, it was late at night, and only sporadic lights could be seen in the direction of the city.
After getting off the boat, Jiang Chen did not return to the villa immediately, but drove to a gas station near the southern tip of Koro Island.
Parking the car next to the self-service gas station, Jiang Chen slapped the horn twice.
Soon, the employee on duty at the gas station came over.
I saw the white man in overalls rubbing his eyes and walking out lazily, apparently taking a nap just now.
Most of the British residents living in the new country are bilingual. Glancing at Jiang Chen, who was sitting in the car, Colbert yawned, put his hand on the roof of the car, and asked impatiently in Chinese.
"How much?"
"Add as much as you want. ”
Hearing this, Corbett was obviously stunned, and reached out to touch the stubble on his face.
"How much?"
didn't talk nonsense with him, Jiang Chen directly took out a small stack of US dollars and slapped it on the car platform, "2,000 US dollars, help me prepare a few oil drums." ”
In case of emergency, he usually puts tens of thousands of dollars in cash in the storage space.
$2,000?!
Corbett suddenly woke up, and the person did not move. But he glanced at Jiang Chen vigilantly.
"$2,000? Why are you buying so much gas?"
There is no room for him to ask a few more questions, and the security situation in the new country has been somewhat uneven recently. Now there are some people who are in danger. If this gasoline is sold from him, then someone else will use it to cause terror. The attack came. I'm sure I'll find him on the head.
Although the more oil he sells, the higher the income he gets at the end of the month, but he doesn't dare to sell this oil!
With a sigh, Jiang Chen took out a pass to the presidential palace from his pocket and came to his eyes.
"It's not good for you to ask too much, man. ”
After receiving the presidential palace pass, the doubts in Cobbert's heart instantly dissipated. Being able to enter and leave the presidential palace freely in and out of the new country should not be a horror if you think of it. molecules, most of this person is working for the president.
"The oil drums are in the warehouse. You wait a minute. Returning the pass to Jiang Chen, Colbert turned around and walked towards the gas station's warehouse.
"Wait, there's no truck in this gas station. Jiang Chen stuck his head out of the car window and stopped him.
Colbert shook his head, "No, but the pickup I drove to work is over there." ”
"Okay, what's your name?"
Colbert was stunned.
"Corbett. What's wrong?"
"Mr. Coubert, do you want to make $1,000?" Putting his hand in his pocket, Jiang Chen took out a stack of dollars and put it on the platform. He looked at him with a smile and said......
Because of the absence of the National Development and Reform Commission and national conditions, the oil price of the new country is still internationalized. As the international crude oil market fell below $30 per barrel, No. 91 gasoline also fell below $1 per gallon. $3, which is 0 per liter when converted into liters. $34.
That's how it goes. How much gas can you buy for $2000?
There are 5882. 4 liters!
At 159 liters per barrel of oil, the $2,000 would buy a full 37 barrels of gasoline! It took almost a lot of digging through the gas station's warehouse to find enough oil barrels.
I believe that with this batch of gasoline. It should be enough for the zombies outside the fish bone base wall to drink a pot.
With a huge tip, Corbett naturally worked hard. Humming and snorting, he carried the empty oil drum onto the trailer of his pickup truck. Then unscrew the grease nipple and start filling it with oil.
A $1,000 tip only needs to transport the barrels of oil to the door of the Transwarp Trade's warehouse. Where to find such a cheap errand?
After several rounds of going back and forth, the 37 oil drums were finally transported to the warehouse of Star Ring Trade.
Handing the tip to him, Jiang Chen once again explained to him, "Bury everything that happened today in your stomach." Seeing him swearing to pat his chest and pack the ticket, Jiang Chen patted him on the shoulder and asked him to prepare more oil drums in the gas station next time, and then signaled that he could leave.
After seeing Corbett drive away, Jiang Chen returned to the warehouse and closed the door.
Throwing the gasoline into the storage space, he travels back in time to the end times.
As soon as he arrived at the end of the world, he heard the incessant sound of gunfire from afar.
After placing the gasoline in the warehouse in the backyard, Jiang Chen found Wang Qing and instructed her to drag the gasoline into the warehouse.
It was no surprise that the marshal often transported supplies to the backyard unnoticed, Wang Qing didn't ask much, and immediately ordered the staff of the logistics department to drive a trailer, carefully load these flammable and explosive materials into the car, and then pull them into a separate warehouse for storage.
Ascending the conning tower, Jiang Chen saw Wang Zhaowu with a dignified face.
"What's going on now?"
"40% of the fuel reserves in the base have been depleted, and the fuel production rate is far from keeping up, and the reserves of kamu resin are only enough to produce 30 barrels of fuel at most. The fuel on the other side of the sixth block is just enough, and there is no excess fuel to support us, and if we continue like this, I am afraid that we will not be able to remove the corpses of the zombies in three days. Wang Zhaowu said with difficulty.
Looking at the expression on Wang Zhaowu's face, Jiang Chen smiled and spoke.
"I've solved the problem with gasoline. ”
Thinking that more than 6 hours had only passed, and even if Jiang Chen was no longer able to get a lot of gasoline, Wang Zhaowu smiled bitterly and said, "One or two barrels of gasoline can't solve the problem at all." There is not much grease in the corpses, and it takes about 300 liters of gasoline to ignite the corpses under one wall, and the base now has four walls......"
"Is 37 barrels of gasoline enough?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
37 barrels?
37 barrels!
Finally reacted, Wang Zhaowu looked at Jiang Chen with round eyes, "37 barrels?!How many liters are there?"
"159 liters, already in the warehouse. ”
"159 liters, a total of ...... 5883 liters!ha! Great!" Overjoyed, Wang Zhaowu slammed his fist on the table, and then raised his hand and pressed it on the headset, "Pay attention to the crematorium, prepare to go to the warehouse to get fuel." Burn him for me. Damn!"
"Roger. ”
After ending the communication, Wang Zhaowu realized his gaffe just now, and couldn't help but smile and scratch the back of his head.
However, Jiang Chen didn't care about these details, smiled and continued, "You don't have to worry about fuel, I'll get another batch in a few days." Hold on to the wall, don't save me, understand?"
"Understood!" Wang Zhaowu stood up and made a military salute with a bright face.
The 37 barrels brought by Jiang Chen undoubtedly solved the urgent need of the base. Who cares how he got it? As a qualified subordinate, he just needs to complete the tasks assigned to him step by step! )
