Although Nenjiang County is not a big city, it is a place where hundreds of thousands of people live, and all kinds of materials are also huge for the current steel fort.
When Chen Yuan got the statistical list, he was so happy!
Zhang Fatzi's eyebrows danced, and he kept chanting: "It's gone, it's been sent, it's really sent this time." Not counting the small family workshops, there are more than 200 other large-scale factories of all kinds! There are countless mechanical equipment. This time, the industry of our steel castle can have a big development. Fill in some of the previous blanks. ”
Wu Chaogui said with a smile: "In particular, there is a special vehicle manufacturing plant and a seamless steel pipe manufacturing plant, which are exactly what the Steel Fort urgently needs at present." With these two factories, we at the Iron Fortress will be able to build our own vehicles! The only regret is that there is no engine manufacturing plant. So at present, we can only dismantle the car engines in Nenjiang County and barely use them, and at the same time find a way to build an engine manufacturing plant by ourselves. ”
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "I remember if there is a large engine manufacturing plant in Chuncheng?" In this regard, we can explore on our own, and at the same time, a team of half-corpse scouts will go to Spring City to get some ready-made equipment and come back, so that the speed may be faster. If we can produce our own tanks, that's the best. The output of Shenwu City is also limited. ”
Xu Kai said: "We have no problem in this regard, I immediately set out to arrange for two squads of half-corpse scouts to go to Spring City." I'll be able to leave tomorrow. ”
Chen Yuan nodded and said, "Tell them to be careful, Spring City is a big city after all, and you should pay special attention to your activities." ”
Zhang Fatzi then reported: "In addition, there are countless industrial raw materials and civilian resources piled up in warehouses in various places in Nenjiang County. There are some that are not available in the Tohoku region. For example, natural rubber and cotton cloth. ”
Wu Chaogui explained: "Natural rubber is only available in a few areas in the southernmost part of Huaxia. At the moment our train can't get there. Although there is still synthetic rubber that can be used, the synthetic one is not as good as the natural one in terms of performance, and it is good for civilian use, but not for military use. In addition, cotton is almost non-existent in the Northeast. Although it can be planted on the side of Shenwu Pass, but now their land is not enough to grow crops, and it is impossible to use it to grow cotton! ”
Zhang Fatzi continued: "There are also granaries and food warehouses, and a large number of grain and canned products are also hoarded. There is enough stock for our current population to eat for a year. ”
In short, Chen Yuan's harvest from this operation is still very good.
After that, the Iron Castle was a little calmer for a few days. Plans for a tank factory are on the agenda, and equipment and resources are being moved to the Iron Castle.
However, Chen Yuan encountered another problem - the warehouse was not enough.
Built in a castle of steel, a waste of land. The warehouses in Hatu Village, Lijia Village, the railway station and the iron ore mining area are also full, and it will take time to expand.
Therefore, Chen Yuan could only temporarily concentrate these materials in a few large warehouses in Nenjiang County and send troops to guard them.
However, the problem was quickly solved.
That's Amagi.
*************
In the past six months or so, Wang Qiang of Tiancheng has had a hard time.
Since the Self-Salvation Army got a large amount of saltpeter from Xinjiang Province in April, they have not sold even a kilogram of saltpeter here!
At first, it was Blackwater.
It was all fine before, and 1 kilogram of saltpeter could even be sold for the price of 20 kilograms of grain.
But as soon as the Steel Castle stepped in, they sold it at half price.
Amagi was in a hurry, and he also hurried to reduce the price. But the Iron Castle dropped even more.
After coming and going, the price of saltpeter dropped directly to 1 metric saltpeter for 1 kilogram of grain.
By this time, although the prices of the two companies were the same, they did not continue to decrease.
But people in Blackwater City see that you are unhappy.
"Okay, it turns out that you pit Lao Tzu so much food before, if it weren't for the intervention of the Iron Castle, you still want to continue to pit Lao Tzu, right? Although the price is the same, Lao Tzu just won't ask you to buy it. you off! What's more, the Iron Fort is not only saltpeter, but also other important strategic materials that can be bought. "So in contrast, of course, they prefer to establish a long-term and stable trade relationship with the steel castle.
Later, Wang Qiang had no choice and had no income. They can only stipulate that they will not accept newcomers anymore, tighten their belts to get by, and then go to other places to contact buyers.
They've actually worked hard, and they've been able to get in touch with several interested buyers.
Strangely, however, the Iron Keep always seemed to be informed in advance and cut off their deals at a better price than they did.
One or two can be explained as coincidence, but it has been like this several times in a row, and it cannot but be suspicious.
So Wang Qiang and the others finally realized that there were undercover agents from the Iron Castle by their side, and the information was leaked.
Immediately, they began to conduct a great inventory inside the Heavenly City!
As a result, they really found a lot of bugs.
Offices, conference rooms, restaurants, break rooms, restrooms have found a large number of eavesdropping devices. Even two were found under the bedside table in Wang Qiang's bedroom. This made Wang Qiang's face black in an instant. These crazy fellows don't even listen to sexual affairs!
But the secret agent didn't find one. As for who installed those bugs. Hehe, they don't even know when these bugs were installed, how can there be clues.
After that, although they strengthened their precautions, they did not let the intelligence personnel of the Self-Rescue Army install bugs. But there's no need for people to pretend now. The buyers who are able to be contacted by the surrounding Sky City have already been contacted. Several groups of men and horses were also lost in the process. But the result was that they were all cut off by the Iron Castle.
So in the past half a year, the Amagi side has not received any grains.
And when the troops of the Self-Salvation Army finally hit their vicinity and cleared the land, they can start farming.
But at this time, half of the summer has passed, and it's too late to plant anything!
Wang Qiang wanted to say, bear with me, there are no zombies on the surrounding land now. When we grow grain next year and have a good harvest, we won't have to worry about going hungry.
But the Minister of Logistics, go to the granary and count.
Oh, where are you waiting for next year's harvest? Even according to the minimum consumption, they do not have to wait until the beginning of spring next year, and they will run out of food.
So what's next? Hungry for farming? Eating dirt? Or is it to find someone to borrow food?
None of this is possible. So in the end, after thinking about it, there is only one way to make peace with the Iron Castle.
So under such circumstances, Wang Qiang thought that the Iron Castle sent a peace envoy.
But is Chen Yuan doing so much really just to make you admit defeat and make peace?
Hmph, no! If you haven't realized yet, you should hang it first.
