Text Chapter 7: Boss's Reward
In the dormitory of the fourth squad, except for Ding Xiu's bed, the other bunks are empty, and there has been no newcomer here for a long time, and today, Ding Xiu has become the last member of the team.
Lying on the bed, Ding Xiu heard someone shouting to him in a daze.
He rubbed his eyes and stood up and opened the door to his dorm room.
"Head for you." The soldier outside the door said to him.
"Looking for me?" Ding Xiu pointed at himself with his finger, "Didn't I just see him when I came back?" ”
"Good thing, hurry up, the head is waiting for you in the barracks." The person who came to call him smiled, "Remember to treat you at night." ”
"A good thing?" Ding Xiu walked towards the barracks in disbelief.
"That's a good thing!" Looking at the bag of money handed to him by Zhang Zhixiong, Ding Xiu's heart began to "plop" and jump, "Give it to me?" ”
In the bag was a hundred bries, and Ding Xiu held it heavily in his hand, and the salary he received after three years as a soldier was only one-fifth of the money.
"You killed the mutant mole cricket, and this is a bonus for you." Zhang Zhixiong motioned for him to take the money.
"But I didn't bring back the corpse of the mutant mole cricket." Ding Xiu thought about it, but he was still not sure whether he should accept this bonus or not, "It was Wu Mo and the people of the seventh team who brought back the corpse of the mutant mole cricket. ”
"That's right, you killed the mutant mole cricket, meritorious; Wu Mo and the others brought back the corpse, and they also had merit. Zhang Zhixiong nodded, "I have always had clear rewards and punishments, Wu Mo and the others took the credit of you for killing the mutant mole crickets, and this should be punished, so one reward and one punishment, and the two cancel each other." ”
"From now on, I appoint you as the captain of the fourth squad, although you are the only one left in this squad, you can recruit soldiers from among the civilians yourself, and the establishment is tentatively ten." Zhang Zhixiong continued, "In addition, there are new troops, and I will also give priority to your team. ”
"Thank you, head!" Ding Xiu thanked him gratefully.
"If you have any other requirements, you can ask directly." Zhang Zhixiong was very happy about Ding Xiu's acquisition of special skills, because Ding Xiu became powerful, which meant that the border guards he led became powerful.
"My car was ruined by mutant mole crickets, and I want to apply for a car."
"Yes, how can my soldiers not have a car, if you don't give the car, isn't it equivalent to sending you to death when you go on a mission?" Zhang Zhixiong agreed to Ding Xiu's request with a wave of his hand, he caught a glimpse of the nuclear rifle that Ding Xiu was hanging on his body, and added another item to what he was given, "When I go to Zheng Delin's to get the car, by the way, I will ask him to change the gun, your nuclear rifle is the oldest, and now that you are the captain, you have to change to an upgraded version of the L type to match your identity." ”
"Thank you, Chief." Ding Xiu thanked him again, took the note from Zhang Zhixiong's handwritten letter with joy, and then went straight to the direction of the warehouse.
"This kid, hehe." Zhang Zhixiong looked at Ding Xiu's distant back and couldn't help laughing.
Cheng Delin is the nephew of Zhang Zhixiong, and as a relative and confidant of the camp leader, he manages the most important place in the area, the storehouse.
The storeroom was a miscellaneous, containing materials as well as weapons, tools, and food.
Zhang Zhixiong originally wanted Chen Jiansen to manage the warehouse, but Chen Jiansen is also a doctor and is busy studying the attributes of various genes, so he really can't take a break.
Zheng Delin was quite sloppy back then, but under the discipline of his uncle Zhang Zhixiong, his habits were slightly restrained. He was in charge of the storeroom, and the things he handled were naturally plucked by geese, so he could be regarded as one of the most nourishing people in the camp.
When Ding Xiu found Zheng Delin, the nephew of the camp leader was playing poker with a few fox friends.
"Four with two."
"Wang fry, haha, double it."
The cards played by several people are still the way they have been played in the past, and Ding Xiu can't understand them, and he is not interested in reading them.
He handed Zhang Zhixiong a note and waited for Zheng Delin to send the things to him.
"Yo he, what did you kid do, why did you develop all of a sudden?" Zheng Delin threw away the cigarette butt from his mouth and looked at Ding Xiu carefully.
"Kill a monster." Ding Xiu said.
"Kill a monster? What monster? The person next to him asked curiously.
"Mutant mole crickets, C-class mutant creatures."
"What is a mutant mole cricket?" Zheng Delin and a few players had never heard of mutant mole crickets, but they all gasped when they heard the words "C-level mutant creatures", "Hiss~ Bragging, right?" ”
Seeing that Ding Xiu didn't speak, Zheng Delin threw the cards in his hand on the table, "Wait until I come to give you money." ”
As he spoke, he beckoned to Ding Xiu again and motioned for Ding Xiu to follow him.
"L-reinforced nuclear rifle, here you go." Zheng Delin took a half-used gun from the shelf in the warehouse and handed it to Ding Xiu, and then pointed to the several cars parked in the open space next to him, "Take your own pick." ”
Ding Xiu chose a car with the thickest tires, and experience told him that this car would run well in the sand.
After filling up the car, Ding Xiu sat down, and when he was about to leave the warehouse gate, he found Zheng Delin in front of him.
Zheng Delin's three fingers on his right hand rubbed and rubbed again, and seeing that Ding Xiu couldn't understand his gestures, he was a little annoyed, "Is it the first time you came to the warehouse to get something?" Why don't you understand the rules so much, don't you still understand what this means to make you filial piety to Lao Tzu? ”
Ding Xiu was very disgusted with Zheng Delin's insatiable greed, when he used to come here to receive something, he would be plucked by Zheng Delin's goose every time. The thing that came to receive today was a reward given by Zhang Zhixiong, who knew that he was still being asked for benefits by the nephew of this leader.
Although Ding Xiu didn't like Zheng Delin, he didn't want to offend him, after all, his uncle was the boss of this camp. Most of the other people who have been exploited by Zheng Delin have the same idea, so everyone chooses to break the bank every time.
Ding Xiu reluctantly took out the money bag that Zhang Zhixiong had rewarded him.
Zheng Delin snatched it, opened the bag and counted it.
"This is the Brie that the first prize gave me." Ding Xiu said that he deliberately emphasized that this was Zhang Zhixiong's reward to scare Zheng Delin.
"This is also my uncle's award for you?" Zheng Delin raised his head and was stunned for a moment, he thought about pouring out half of the amount of cloth from the money bag, and returned the rest to Ding Xiu's hands, "Don't tell my uncle about this, do you hear?" ”
Seeing Ding Xiu nodded, Zheng Delin urged him to leave the warehouse.
After urging Ding Xiu away, he continued to return to the table and play with his friends.
"Damn, the money hasn't been covered yet, and it's lost by half all of a sudden." Ding Xiu hated Zheng Delin so much, but there was nothing he could do about him.
Ding Xiu still had some spare money left in his hand, and he was just about to go shopping, when his eyes suddenly fell on the satchel he was carrying.
"The thin wings on the mutant mole crickets."
Stopping the car, Ding Xiu took out this translucent film from his satchel, took it in his hand and looked at it again.
He could have sold this thing for money, but after receiving Zhang Zhixiong's bounty, he was not short of money.
"Show it to Uncle Chen." After making up his mind, Ding Xiu turned around and went to the hospital.
"Ding Xiu, why are you here again?" Chen Jiansen was busy in the research room, and when he saw Ding Xiu's figure appear at the door again, he asked with some curiosity.
"Uncle Chen, there's something for you to see," Ding Xiu said as he took out the thin wings on the back of the mutant mole cricket from his satchel.
"What is this?" Chen Jiansen took the things handed by Ding Xiu and looked at them carefully.
"The mutant mole cricket, when I killed it, I thought it was beautiful, so I cut it off."
"Really? I'll take a look at ......" Chen Jiansen put down the work in his hand and took Bo Yi to a small table vacated next to him.
Ding Xiu waited on the side, quietly watching Chen Jiansen study the thin wing.
"This thin wing should belong to the exophytic part of the mutant mole cricket's lungs." It didn't take long for Chen Jiansen to have the results, and he said to Ding Xiu: "Thin Wing can help the mutant mole cricket collect oxygen molecules in the gravel and deliver these oxygen molecules to its lungs. ”
"It turns out that the mutant mole cricket relies on it to breathe when it hides under the sand!" Ding Xiu suddenly realized, and finally knew the truth that that kind of monster could move in the sand.
"Yes, this thin wing is a good quality material, would you consider selling it?" Chen Jiansen asked.
"Sell it? No, the boss gave me a lot of money, and I'm not short of money now. Ding Xiu shook his head, "Uncle Chen, if you like it, I'll give you half of it." ”
"To be honest, I do like it." Chen Jiansen did not shy away from his inner thoughts, "Since you don't sell it, I can't take your things for nothing." Well, I'll give you this. “
Chen Jiansen said and handed the biometric identifier he had used before to Ding Xiu, "Take it, you are often outside, and you can use it to view the information when you encounter monsters you don't know in the future, this thing can identify most of the mutated creatures that exist." ”
"Thank you, Uncle Chen!" Ding Xiu responded happily.
His temper was very much to Chen Jiansen's appetite, and Chen Jiansen admired this young man very much.
"Do you need me to make you a sand mask? Not only does the mask protect against sand, but it also helps you filter out harmful gases in certain environments when worn. ”
"Good!" Ding Xiu naturally would not refuse such a good thing, and the mask function that Chen Jiansen said was exactly what he needed when he was on patrol duty in the desert area.
"Then I won't disturb your work, Uncle Chen." Seeing that there was nothing to do, Ding Xiu was ready to leave.
"I'll have someone call you when the mask is ready." Chen Jiansen said to him.
"Ding Xiu." Just as Ding Xiu was about to leave, Chen Jiansen suddenly called out to him again, "Thank you." ”
"Uncle Chen, you're welcome." Ding Xiu smiled.
"By the way, don't tell anyone about your skills just yet. Plus, you're now the third person in the Border Guard W47 camp to have a skill. ”
