NO.157 STAR CITY
Carl believed that today must be his lucky day, and he walked into the town with infinite hope, and the first thing he saw was the neatly planned houses and wide roads, not the rags of Diamond City, which were made of iron and wood, but the same bright metal as the city walls, which radiated a cool and dazzling glow in the hot sun. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Moreover, the town's road was not the most primitive dirt road, but a solid concrete road, and the term 'concrete' was the one he had heard from his fellow companions, the magical material from which humans had built the buildings before the Wasteland Age began.
The roads in the town were extremely wide, at least thirty feet wide, and Carl had never seen such a clean and tidy ground, almost dust-free. Not only that, but Carl even saw extravagant features like sewers, which guaranteed that the town wouldn't be flooded with standing water on rainy days.
Also, the further you go to the center of the town, the higher the buildings around you, and from the edge, the most central part is a huge fortress that is at least fifty meters high and covers an area of tens of thousands of square meters! There are even many wide platforms on the fort, and you can see powerful artillery and bird helicopters on the platforms!
It's a well-armed city that can withstand the baptism of war!
The eagerness in Karl's eyes intensified, but the thought of his wife and children forced him to withdraw his eager gaze and wander the streets, he needed to find a grocery store and sell the wreckage of something he didn't even know what it was.
Apparently because the town had just opened, he found that the streets were extremely sparsely populated, except for groups of soldiers in large armor patrolling the town to keep the town safe.
Not only that, but there are so many shops along the street in the town that Carl is almost dazzled, but all of them are closed, apparently because there are no operators.
If you can have a shop in this town, then you don't have to run around for survival and food, right?
Karl's eyes flashed with longing, and then he shook his head, shaking the unrealistic fantasy out of his mind.
Eventually, Carl made his way to the center of the town, where he finally saw an open grocery store at the edge of the fort.
Carl was overjoyed and ran over, only to see a very clean woman sitting in the center of the counter in the shop, the woman looked ordinary, but compared to the unkempt woman who lived in the wasteland, she was as beautiful as a fairy.
Swallowing his saliva, Carl asked a little nervously, "Excuse me, do you buy waste garbage here?" ”
"Everything is collected here, what do you have?" The woman raised her head calmly and walked out of the counter, Carl seemed to have some inferiority, and hurriedly took a few steps back, for fear that the other party would smell the bad smell on his body.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." The woman shook her head, her eyes filled with no sadness or joy.
"It's this." Karl blushed at this time, stretched out his hand to quickly hand the wreckage to the other party, and then quickly took two steps back, snorting with his head down.
"It turned out to be a nuclear fusion core of power armor, and you're in luck." The woman said calmly, "It's just that the power of this energy core is not much, and the shell is also a little damaged, the value I will give you an estimate, around 10,000 Stellar coins, do you want cash or something else?" ”
Carl couldn't help frowning, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I want to ask, isn't the currency circulating here a bottle cap?" ”
"No, this is Stellar City, and the only currency we have in circulation here is Stellar Lumens." "And soon," said the woman in a very ordinary tone, "and soon, there will be only one currency in circulation in the whole of Boston, and indeed in the whole of the Federation." ”
Carl couldn't help but gasp, this Eternal City, such a big ambition!
However, these are not Carl's concerns, he just said with some apprehension, "Then I don't want money, can I want food?" ”
"Yes." The woman didn't say much, just pointed to the food on the counter, "These foods are priced in Stellar Lumens, you can choose what you need." ”
Carl nodded, giving the woman a somewhat embarrassed look. He is in need of food now, and he will not sell the other person's face because of a woman, even if the other party is beautiful that he has never seen before. Besides, he won't keep the currency of a force that will perish at any point, and in the wasteland, only the cap of Nuka-Cola is the only hard currency.
Carl gathered his mind and looked at the food on the counter, just now he was a little nervous, he didn't pay attention to these food, until this time, he was stunned, and then showed a shocked look!
I saw all kinds of food on the glass counters on both sides of the store, among which the rye bread that I can usually eat is just the cheapest one in it, and the one-kilogram rye bread on it is only sold for 1 stellar coin!
Karl's heart was like lightning and thunder, and the cold sweat on his forehead was rising, and he only then realized what a valuable thing the so-called core he had gotten!
You must know that a kilogram of bread is already the income of his usual scavenging for a week, and it is only worth 1 Stellar Coin here, but the core he picked up is worth tens of thousands of Stellar Coins. It's also a shame that he didn't bring this thing back to Diamond City directly, otherwise, with the security of Diamond City, he would only be a dead end if he took out an item of that value!
Thinking of this, Carl only felt extremely emotional, he had an intuition, only in front of this woman who had no emotion, he didn't have to worry about his belongings being swallowed, and he didn't have to worry that the other party would give him less food because he didn't know the goods.
Thinking of this, Carl suddenly had a bold idea, a chance to completely get rid of the lowly status of a waste picker! His heart beat violently, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble with excitement!
"Please, excuse me, can you buy a shop here for 10,000 Stellar Lumens?"
"Sorry, there's no project to sell stores in Eternal City." The woman, however, shook her head. Just when Carl was disappointed, the woman said again, "However, there are projects to rent shops, and the price of renting a shop is between 1,000 Stellar and 10,000 Stellar, depending on the location, the closer the store is to the center of town, the more expensive it is." ”
"Do you need to rent?"
……
After more than a month of repairs, 90 percent of the college's various instruments and circuits have been repaired, including the college's quantum computer alpha, and the remaining 10 percent are some instruments that are difficult to repair or too damaged to be repaired.
Although it is a pity, if he chooses again, Zhang Heng will still use the extremely simple method of dropping electromagnetic bombs to break through the academy.
And all the building materials that Zhang Heng brought from reality were also used in the new city above the college, with concrete floors, houses made of aluminum alloy, and castles cast of reinforced concrete.
The new city, named Stellar City, contains residential and commercial areas and entertainment areas, where he wants to gather a group of aborigines, exchange food and daily necessities and other materials for the world's rich resources and advanced technology, and eventually rule the entire federation.
And with a labor force like synths, the speed of new city construction is extremely fast, and the prototype of the city has been built before other forces have even come to their senses. Coupled with the more than 200 clone warriors and thirteen tyrants that Zhang Heng had, Zhang Heng already almost had the strength to sweep the Federation!
At this moment, Zhang Heng was standing at the top of the fortress, looking at the town under his feet, and suddenly, he saw a ragged aborigine, this aboriginal walked out of the clone shop arranged by Zhang Heng with a happy face, and then the two clone warriors directly drove out of a chariot and took him out of the city.
"What's going on?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Sir, that's just a lucky nouveau riche." A male voice sounded out of thin air in the room, and if you listened closely, you could tell that it was electronically synthetic, but it seemed to have feelings, with a human tone.
"This lucky gentleman picked up a piece of nuclear fusion core for 10,000 stellar coins, and he rented a shop for 1,000, and then rented two fighters for 4,000 to protect him for 24 hours, and heard that he was going back to Boston to pick up his wife and son." After saying this, a 3D picture flashed in Zhang Heng's room, and countless tiny rays of light intertwined, forming the appearance of a crab in mid-air.
"Sure enough, it's a lucky guy." Zhang Heng nodded, no longer paying attention to this topic, "Alpha, have you finished supplementing all the scientific and technological materials listed by Yuehua?" I'm ready to leave. ”
"Okay sir, I've already supplemented the technologies listed by Yuehualuo and restored them to the most basic data." It turns out that this voice comes from the quantum supercomputer in the academy: Alpha, the radiation plane has long developed artificial intelligence, and Alpha is one of the best, although it is far from being comparable to Yuehua, but it also has good capabilities.
"Very well, I grant Adam and Gu Zhan the highest authority, and after I leave, they will have full authority to manage the academy and Stellar City." Zhang Heng nodded.
However, just as Zhang Heng was about to leave, the 3D image of the Alpha in mid-air flashed twice, and he asked with some hesitation, "Sir, can't you really help me introduce the computer named Yuehua?" (To be continued.) )
