In an office at Liujiaqianzhuang's headquarters, Zhou Rui and Liu Yiqiu signed an agreement to transfer the Heigou Coal Mine.

Liu Yiqiu said to Zhou Rui gratefully: "Thank you, Zhou Rui, with these 12 million silver coins, our Liujia Qian Zhuang should almost be able to survive this crisis." ”

In the process of signing the transfer agreement, Zhou Rui had already paid 2,400 gold scrolls with a face value of 500 gold coins from the six major beast nations to Liu Yiqiu.

"Oh, oh, no...... You're welcome.

If Miss Liu really wants to thank me, will she have to treat me to a big meal? ”

Zhou Rui was a little stunned just now, because the lottery system suddenly prompted him to complete the hidden task of "Resource Tycoon", and rewarded Zhou Rui with a four-star lottery card and 40 points.

Immediately afterwards, the lottery system explained to Zhou Rui that to complete the hidden task of "Resource Tycoon", Zhou Rui needs to own an oil field and a coal mine, and the reward will be determined according to the reserves of this oil field and this coal mine.

Because the Three Towns Oilfield and the Heigou Coal Mine, one is a world-class large oil field, and the other is the world's largest mineable coal mine, the rewards for this hidden mission will be so rich.

40 points suddenly made Zhou Rui's level in the lottery system become: 2 (0/200)

In this way, in the early morning of the first day of every month in the future, Zhou Rui will get a two-star lottery card from the lottery system.

Liu Yiqiu smiled, "No problem, it's just noon, let's go, I'll treat you to a big meal." ”

At a food stall near the headquarters of Liujia Qianzhuang, Zhou Rui held a bowl of rice melon noodles and said to Liu Yiqiu with a wry smile: "You are too picky."

I spent 12 million silver coins to buy the Heigou Coal Mine, which is equivalent to helping your Liu family survive this crisis!

As a result, you invited me to eat 2 copper coins and a bowl of rice melon noodles? ”

Rice melon is an annual creeping herbaceous plant, somewhat similar to sweet potato, but the yield of rice melon is larger, the most important thing is that rice melon has a bitter taste, and the fiber is coarser than sweet potato, and herbivore beasts and omnivorous beasts generally do not eat rice melon.

This alone has made the melon the staple food of the humans and orcs of this world.

Although the fierce beasts in the countries of the world have been suppressed to a certain extent, there are still a large number of fierce beasts in the countries of the world.

Rice, wheat, soybeans and other food crops are easily eaten by herbivores and omnivorous beasts, resulting in the yield of these food crops has not been able to rise, and only rice melons can be left alone because of their bitter taste.

Moreover, rice melon contains a variety of vitamins and trace elements required by the human body, and also contains a lot of protein and carbohydrates, which is quite nutritious.

The only drawback is that the taste of rice melon is too bitter, it is okay to eat rice melon once or twice once in a while, and it is definitely a very painful thing to eat rice melon as the staple food for many years, at least in Zhou Rui's opinion.

In the last life in the Colosseum, Zhou Rui had eaten rice melons for more than ten years, and only during the New Year's holidays was he willing to buy a little relatively expensive rice or white flour to improve his food.

Liu Yiqiu blinked her eyes wide, and said with a smile: "I'm here to help you remember the bittersweet memories, have you never eaten something made of rice melon since you were a child?" ”

Zhou Rui sighed, "I've eaten more rice melons than you've ever seen." ”

"You are too good at bragging, you, the young master of the Zhou family, have only eaten rice melons a few times."

"No one believes the truth these days."

Zhou Rui immediately picked up the rice melon noodles with chopsticks and started eating, "Hey-this rice melon noodles are good!" The taste is not too bitter! ”

Liu Yiqiu said with a smile: "Of course, the rice melon noodles in this house were finally discovered by me, if it weren't for thank you today, I wouldn't have led you here for a big meal!" ”

Zhou Rui ate up a bowl of rice melon noodles in a few bites, and then shouted to the proprietress of the food stall: "Boss, bring me two more bowls of rice melon noodles and add some more chili peppers." ”

Then Zhou Rui snorted coldly at Liu Yiqiu, "Even if it's rice melon noodles, you can't be cheap, I can't eat five bowls today, I won't leave!"

Also, today you settle accounts! ”

Zhou Rui looked serious, and teased Liu Yiqiu back and forth, "Haha, Zhou Rui, don't worry, you just ate fifty bowls, and I have a treat today!" ”

In the afternoon, after Zhou Rui took a car to the brigade headquarters building of the garrison brigade, he returned to his office first, and then clicked on the four-star lottery card with his consciousness.

After this four-star lottery card disappeared, Zhou Rui got nine rewards at once.

50 kg gold bricks (80,000 pieces)

German Mauser 98k rifle (160,000 units)

Czech ZB-26 light machine guns (8000 units)

German MG-34 general-purpose machine gun (2000 units)

Huaxia Type 54 pistol (80,000 pieces)

Caliber 7.92×57 mm rifle cartridges (1.2 million cases of 1,500 rounds each)

Caliber 7.62×25mm pistol bullets (120,000 cases of 2,000 rounds each)

100 kg of rice (50 million bags)

100 pounds of flour (50 million bags)

The lottery system immediately introduced the German MG-34 general-purpose machine gun and the Huaxia 54 pistol to Zhou Rui.

The German MG-34 general-purpose machine gun is a light and heavy dual-purpose machine gun developed and equipped by Germany before World War II, using 7.92×57mm rifle bullets with a theoretical rate of fire of 800 to 900 rounds per minute.

If a bipod is used, it can be used as a light machine gun with a saddle-shaped twin drum with a capacity of 75 rounds, weighing 12.1 kg and having an effective range of 800 meters.

If a 6.75 kg tripod is added and equipped with a 300-round chain, it can be used as a heavy machine gun with an effective range of 1,000 meters.

Zhou Rui couldn't be more satisfied with the performance of this German MG-34 general-purpose machine gun.

At present, the armies of the six major beast countries are equipped with various machine guns, and the performance of none of them can be comparable to the German MG-34 general-purpose machine gun.

With the MG-34 general-purpose machine gun, the problem of constant lack of firepower in the garrison brigade is no longer there.

Huaxia Type 54 pistol, also known as the Black Star pistol, is a military pistol produced by Huaxia, using a caliber of 7.62×25 mm pistol bullets, with a magazine capacity of 8 rounds, with the advantages of strong bullet penetration, long range, light weight, easy assembly and disassembly.

The previous garrison brigade, with only a handful of officers, was armed with a number of revolvers imported at high prices from the Golden Lion Empire.

Now with a sufficient number of Type 54 pistols, the garrison brigade can equip even ordinary soldiers with pistols to increase the firepower of the garrison brigade soldiers in close combat.

It's just that which country is "Huaxia"?

Zhou Rui is already sure that the weapons in the lottery system should all come from another world.

What "Germany", "Czech Republic", "Huaxia", Zhou Rui has never heard of.

The four-star lottery card really deserves to be a four-star lottery card, and it actually opened 160,000 Mauser 98k rifles, 8,000 Czech ZB-26 light machine guns, 2,000 MG-34 general-purpose machine guns, 80,000 Huaxia Type 54 pistols, 1.2 million boxes of rifle bullets and 120,000 boxes of pistol bullets.

Coupled with the weapons and ammunition that Zhou Rui had extracted before, it was enough for the garrison brigade to expand by more than 200,000 troops.

What's even more exaggerated about this four-star lottery card is that 80,000 50-kilogram gold bricks were opened, which is equivalent to 400 million silver coins.

It's really the speed of spending money, not as fast as the money, with these 80,000 gold bricks weighing 50 catties, Zhou Rui will be more tyrant in the next days, it doesn't matter.

And the two rewards behind this four-star lottery card are worth even more than 80,000 50-pound gold bricks.

Due to the destruction of crops by ferocious beasts, the prices of rice and white flour in various countries have remained high.

At present, the price of rice in various parts of the Han and Tang Empires is generally maintained at about 10 copper coins, and the price of flour is more expensive, about 12 copper coins.

With such a high price, many families in human countries and beast countries can only rely on cheap rice melons as their staple food for many years.

In Ganyang City, the price of a pound of good quality rice melon is only about 1.5 copper coins, if the quality of the rice melon is not good, you can even buy a pound of rice melon without 1 copper coin.

5 billion catties of rice and 5 billion catties of flour, if sold at the market price, can be sold for almost 110 billion copper coins, that is, 1.1 billion silver coins.

Moreover, because of the production of rice and white flour, many countries have even designated rice and white flour as strategic materials.

Let the soldiers fight, you have to let the soldiers have a full stomach, and the training is good in peacetime, but giving the soldiers rice melons may only make the soldiers complain.

But once the war is fought, the soldiers are given rice melons, which has a great impact on morale.

Even the garrison brigades, including the coastal defense fleet, which have greatly improved their food, have not been able to make the soldiers eat rice and white flour at every meal, and still mostly eat rice melon as the staple food.

It's not that Zhou Rui is reluctant to spend money and replaces the staple food of the garrison brigade with rice and white noodles, but because in the market, rice and white noodles are in demand, and sometimes they can't be bought with money.
