Chapter 2 Repentance
However, twenty-four hours later, Meng Xiang, who woke up from a smile from infinite yy, was depressed.
"What, no money? No materials? When Meng Xiang asked the barracks to produce a soldier, the electronic mixer told him that there was no money and no materials.
"Didn't they all start with some supplies? In the game......" Meng Xiang shouted halfway and stopped again. A game is a game, and reality is reality.
In desperation, I had to ask, "How many resources are left?" ”
Soon the remaining resources are displayed on the big screen.
"Money: 0; Available energy: 250,000 kW; Additional Resources: 0".
"I'm going to check out the resources needed for the barracks to produce the units!" He made a keyboard next to the seat, but he chose the most convenient language.
"Level 1 Clone Troopers - 100 yuan + 10,000 kWh of electricity energy;
Level 1 police dog - 50 yuan + 10,000 kWh of electric energy;
Level 1 engineer - 2,000 yuan + 100,000 kWh of power energy. ”
Only these three kinds of soldiers can be made on the screen, but this cost makes Meng Xiang scratch his head.
"Renminbi?" Meng Xiang asked unconsciously.
"The required monetary units are all formulated according to the mainstream units of the political power region where the time and space are located, and in view of the fact that China's fiat currency is not very stable now, it is calculated according to the mainstream currency, the silver dollar."
"How many resources did you have?"
"Money: 0; Available energy: 300,000 kW; Additional Resources: 0".
"Doesn't it cost money to build the barracks?"
"The first building to be built was made free of charge from materials supplied by the recycling time machine. Due to the unstable nature of the resources provided by the time machine, it has already dissipated from the space-time portal after the first building was constructed. ”
Meng Xiang couldn't help but vomit blood, he knew that he could build the first building for free, and he should have built a more expensive mining farm first. Only with mining farms can there be resources and money.
The regret is over, so he can only find a way to make money, but when he sees the construction cost of 100,000 yuan to build the mining farm, Meng Xiang can't help but feel dizzy.
"Regret shouldn't be, regret shouldn't! ......" After that, for most of the day's work, I could only see Meng Xiang's dull eyes and Xianglin's muttering to herself.
The base command post supplies simple nutrient meals and nutrient solutions in block form, which only consumes electricity. However, the conversion amount of nutritious meals and nutrient solution is only enough for 30 people, but it is enough for Meng Xiang alone. The temperature in the command post of the base is moderate, and after having enough food and clothing, Meng Xiang only thinks about how to make money.
According to later generations, the surrounding minerals are abundant, but it is useless without mining farms.
Or having cash ready is fine.
There is no money, not even basic defense capabilities, and the protection capacity of the base construction plant is very low.
"Money, money, money, silver, silver, silver, gold, gold, gold, dollars, dollars, dollars, dollars, ,......" Meng Xiang kept chattering.
"Paper money cannot be used directly, it needs to be converted in reality, and it must be exchanged for the corresponding precious metals such as gold and silver before it can be used." The electronic sound stopped Meng Xiang's idea of making counterfeit money.
"Silver, gold, silver ingots, gold ingots......" Meng Xiang thought as he thought and stopped. He suddenly remembered that not long after his family moved to this community, he heard that earlier, a batch of cultural relics had been unearthed in the Land Temple, including some silver ingots.
Meng Xiang didn't hesitate, he went out directly and climbed the mound and arrived at the land temple.
It was already dusk, and there was still no one in sight.
In later generations, Meng Xiang has heard the older generation say that because the soil is rich in minerals, it is not possible to grow crops, and weeds do not grow much, so there is not much arable land. After liberation, it remained deserted, and it was not until several factories were built here that it became popular.
The land temple is very small, and there is only one clay sculpture in the temple. But it is not a statue of a land god, but a statue of Buddha.
In typical rumors, it seems that those relics and silver ingots are hidden in the Buddha statue.
Ever since Meng Xiang crossed over, he has been somewhat convinced of the supernatural. Facing the Buddha statue, I thought about it for a long time, and finally gritted my teeth, bowed to the Buddha statue, jumped on the altar, and pushed the Buddha statue down with all my strength.
The Buddha statue fell, cracking several cracks. Meng Xiang walked over again, and after kicking a few times, the cracked place finally shattered.
Sure enough, something rolled out of it.
A copper incense burner, a blue and white porcelain vase, a Buddhist scripture, and three silver ingots. After smashing the Buddha statue and searching for it again, I found a few more pieces of broken silver.
Meng Xiang smiled and packed a few things, and when he left, he didn't forget to bow to the clay Buddha statue that was broken all over the ground.
According to the instructions of the electronic sound, Meng Xiang found a platform for placing money in the control room of the base, and put all the silver on it. A burst of white light swept by, and the electronic voice prompted:
"Your Excellency, Commander, a total of 250 yuan of silver has been received, please give instructions for the next step."
"How is it 250?" Although Meng Xiang was a little unhappy with this number, he did not hesitate to order directly: "Ask the barracks to produce a first-level clone soldier and a first-class police dog first." ”
With the current amount of money, only first-class clone soldiers and police dogs can be produced, so let's take a look at the specific situation.
"Which model do the clone soldiers need?" With the question of the electronic voice, twelve different templates appeared on the big screen for Meng Xiang to choose from.
"This one!" Meng Xiang finally picked the one that looked exceptionally strong and clicked, such a bodyguard looked extremely safe.
"Your Excellency, you have chosen Template No. 2. Please double-check. ”
"Yes, that's him."
"Yes, Your Excellency, please wait."
With money to do things, it didn't take long, it should be less than an hour, and a soldier appeared in front of Meng Xiang.
"Report to the Commander, Aoi Chou 1 reports to you."
During this period, Meng Xiang checked the special surnames of the soldiers through the wisdom brain of the base, and the twelve templates have corresponding numbers, corresponding to the twelve zodiac soldiers, each with its own surname characteristics. The second template corresponds to the ugly cow and belongs to the vigorous type.
As for the Kwai character in front, it seems that it corresponds to a first-class soldier, and it is arranged according to the heavenly and terrestrial branches.
Meng Xiang looked at the strong man in front of him, who was comparable to Schwarzenegger, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, soldier, pick up your weapon and protect me and this base!" Well, no, what about your weapons? ”
Meng Xiang shouted at Kwai Chou No. 1 with his empty hands, except for a simple single suit, Kwai Chou No. 1 can be said to be slippery, and he doesn't even have a protective suit.
The clone's loyalty is undoubted, but Kwai Chou No. 1 was a little confused for a moment when Meng Xiang shouted.
The electronic voice of the beautiful woman's avatar answered his question in time: "You need to build a logistics equipment center to ensure the supply of firearms." ”
When Meng Xiang saw the construction price of 50,000 yuan in the logistics equipment center, he couldn't help but want to vomit blood.
"Money, money, money...... Regret shouldn't be, regret shouldn't ......" For a while, Meng Xiang was possessed by Xianglin's sister-in-law again.
In the end, Meng Xiang didn't have much choice, in order to strengthen his popularity, he chose to produce two more police dogs with the remaining one hundred taels of silver. After all, more people have more power, and more dogs can scare people. Besides, an unarmed soldier is no better than a dog armed with teeth.
