Whether the matter between Ding You and Chen Nuo was perfectly resolved, others don't know, and Ding You is not absolutely sure.

It's just that after the two kissed that night, Chen Nuo's gloomy mood finally changed a lot, and he turned back to the original optimistic and capable girl, and began to help Ding You manage the base.

The ninth district is uncharacteristically silent, and even the originally more lively people have become less in and out. Ding You didn't dare to despise it, so he had to keep the radar station paying attention to it for a moment.

At the food trading station under the mountain, some renovation and expansion work has started again, after all, there are a lot of weapons and equipment entrenched there, and it is normal to readjust the layout.

In the past half a month, Shen Xinghuai, who went out to look for manpower, under the guidance of Xie Delin, got back many people in a targeted manner.

I don't know where those people who are dirtier than beggars usually hide, and they can hide under radar detection without showing a trace.

But someone is always happy, and Ding You is short of people now.

And the food trading station, which has been waiting for a long time, finally welcomed customers who came to trade zombie crystal nuclei.

From a few people who were really hungry at the beginning, to the guerrillas who would come on motorcycles and carry spears every once in a while. The food trading station that Ding You had high hopes for was finally running smoothly.

The exchange rate of 0.2 is also exempt from the service fee for exchanging zombie crystal cores for crystal cards in the early days of opening. Therefore, a 50g fresh chicken sausage in the supermarket space costs 10 crystal calories.

Ding You gave a very generous gift package to the first batch of warriors who came to eat crabs. The first is to provide a bowl of hot salty rice to eat, plus a small piece of candy.

Such an opening reward, if it were changed to his previous life, it is estimated that it is not uncommon to be called Hanako. But don't forget, it's the end of the world, and these residents in the Deep Blue Star base have three meals and clothing. It's good for the rest of the people out there to have a full meal in three days.

Therefore, this way of opening the reward was promoted by the customers who came to trade in the first few batches, and the business of the trading station immediately improved greatly.

Although most of those people can only take out the crystal nuclei they usually accumulate and exchange them for crystal cards, and then buy some ham sausages, bagged biscuits or something. However, there is a first step in everything, and with business, there is also the income of crystal cards. This is a virtuous circle, and Ding You has the patience to wait for the food trading station to slowly grow and develop.

The later guerrillas who were at ease in the last days were in higher demand than ordinary survivors. In addition to the general food, there is a great interest in canned beer and small bottles of ordinary liquor that are placed on the shelves of the trading post.

It's just that the beer is good, but it's heavy.

The larger 500ml bottle requires 100 crystal cards, and the smaller 330ml ones also require 66 crystal cards. Therefore, these beers, which belong to the category of luxury, can only be consumed by these wanderers with strong firepower. Of course, it's just a one-shot or two-can purchase.

On the contrary, some 100ml ordinary liquor is loved by them because of its low price and more enjoyable drinking.

For this reason, Ding You suddenly had an idea, that is, to open up a special tavern next to the food supermarket. On the one hand, it can provide cheap sales of bulk beer and reduce the price of ordinary beer, and on the other hand, it can also provide a new idea for the development of Yamashita Material Trading Station.

In fact, the design of the goods in the food station in terms of price is not very reasonable. The uniform setting of the exchange rate of 0.2 is comprehensive, but it also has limitations.

Let's take beer and liquor as an example, let's not discuss the quality grades among them, let's talk about the most common canned beer and liquor. Because of the inconsistency of taste, most people tend to buy liquor with light weight and cheap price, and stay away from beer. This was completely unimaginable in Ding You's previous life.

Because beer at that time was definitely much cheaper than the same weight of liquor in most cases.

Although this situation is unlikely in the last days, Ding You feels that sooner or later he will have to re-establish a complete price system for goods, so it is good to use supermarkets and taverns to feel the market in advance.

In addition, the jobs that are being promoted on a trial basis by the Deep Blue Star Base can also provide ideas for some professions. For example, clothing stores, such as barber shops and bathhouses.

Don't look at the inside of the base and the trading post itself, there is no shortage of these, but externally, those survivors who wander around are not treated so well.

Originally, most people would have chosen a large survivor base such as District 9 as a destination for eating, shopping, and cleaning up.

However, after several skirmishes between Ding You and the 9th District, it was obvious to outsiders that the 9th District did not have the upper hand, so Ding You must not miss such an opportunity if he wants to attract customers to expand his business.

Around the food trading post at the foot of the mountain, open space is being opened up to build buildings, and there are hints of a new type of town. Some people are worried about the safety situation, but anyone who has been here knows that there is a mysterious military base on the trading post, and no one knows how powerful it is.

And just looking at the ring of armored vehicles and artillery positions on the periphery of the hill is enough to make people tremble.

And then there are the soldiers in uniform dark blue combat uniforms, holding submachine guns with great firepower. Pistols, grenades, communication headsets, advanced night vision devices and other equipment are readily available, you say who dares to make a mistake at the trading post, then definitely don't want to live!

There are also many people who want to join the growing Deep Blue Star City, but now Ding You is not as lenient as before for the entry of personnel.

First of all, for personnel with military quality, priority is given to personnel assigned to various important positions, and all of them need to be implanted with induction chips. Regardless of whether there is a chip or not, this is a mandatory and mandatory requirement for all personnel who aspire to join the Deep Blue Star security forces.

To this end, Ding You also completely replaced the original induction collars of the old team members and upgraded them to a safer and more intelligent "Loyalty Medal".

Of course, the work to be advanced is not without resistance, it is not that others are unwilling to change, but that Ding You intends to let the top brass of the army cancel the collar and return to normal people.

But this kindness was simply rejected by Cheng Hai and them, and they even quarreled with Ding You a few times for this. Ding You had no choice but to let Cheng Hai and Zhao Gang re-implant the induction chip, but he was not bound in the strict sense.

Anyway, a few of them didn't know, and Ding You wasn't worried that they would rebel.

For the ordinary residents of the base, all collars and chips have been canceled, so for the new residents who want to join the base, Ding You has to carefully screen and assign jobs according to their skills.

Under Tian Hanqiu's design and research, under several operations of the Deep Blue Star CCT (Conventional Combat Unit), a lot of tools and equipment have been put in place. Therefore, basically every resident has a corresponding labor position, and if it is really not possible, he will go to the construction site to work as a small worker or a cleaning and sanitation worker.

360 lines can't be done for the time being, but dozens of small divisions of labor are not a problem, and the entire Deep Blue Star Base is thriving, so building a city is also a matter of course.

Because of the particularity of the geographical location, it is not difficult for the Deep Blue Star Base to expand into a city, but it is not small.

It's not big, because there is a natural barrier around the mountain, and the city wall does not need to be enclosed on all sides, as long as an arc-shaped half circle is built to wrap the mountain and the flat land below the mountain.

It's not easy, that's right.

Because the length of the arc circle wall completely depends on how much range Ding You wants to build the entire New Deep Blue Star City.

Later, everyone discussed and discussed, and decided to adopt the structure of the ninth district, that is, to establish a small inner city encirclement in a small area, and then expand the outer ring after it developed and expanded.

This is also the most reasonable idea at present, and Ding You quickly adopted it after thinking about it.

There is still almost a month and a half left before the traditional New Year, and now he thinks about how the first Spring Festival should be spent in the last days, Ding You feels a little early.

However, the day of the national election of the members of the Supreme Council of Deep Blue Star City that he promoted is just around the corner.

After several clearances near the base, a large number of zombies were not seen, and a small number of them were all wiped out, but the mutant who had been remembered in Ding You's heart did not find a trace.

Could it be that the zombies or something are all trapped in the shelter under the base? Every time Ding You thought about this, he could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly.

Zhou Qingquan in the scientific research laboratory is still nervously doing research, and they have not studied anything for the frozen people in the freezing area for the time being. and the potion that Ding You has always wanted to anesthetize zombies, but he has not been able to develop it.

The reason why he has this idea is because Ding You has always thought that he can not expand the new city under the mountain at all, as long as he cleans up the shelter under the base, it is very easy to settle tens of thousands of people in it, and the safety is guaranteed.

But after all, there are still more than 30,000 zombies in it, and some of the soldiers at hand want to go in and clean up so many zombies, which is a bit of a fool's dream.

Therefore, the idea of directly using drug gas to kill zombies without consuming manpower was thought of by Ding You.

However, there is no progress in the research plan for the time being, and in desperation, Ding You has no choice but to expand the new town under the mountain according to the original plan, and then make adjustments after the team grows and takes shape.

"Boss, the afternoon meeting will start soon, do you think we should go up the mountain first?" Cheng Hai accompanied Ding You to inspect at the bottom of the mountain, but seeing that the time was not early, he planned to invite Ding You to a meeting in the base.

This meeting is an important meeting to listen to Tian Hanqiu's work report at this stage, and then formally determine the election method of the Supreme Council of Deep Blue Star City, and it cannot be absent.

And the participants have been finalized in advance.

Yao Songlin and Chen Nuo naturally attended, as well as Cheng Hai, Zhao Gang, Sun Tianhao, Lin Feiyue, and Fan Gaofeng from the troops, Yan Liangcai, Qin Mutian, Tang Jianye, Zhou Qingquan, and Shen Xinghuai from the important departments of the base, as well as Xiao Han and Qiao Guangji, who made contributions soon after joining the army.
