This Game Is Too Realistic

... Then starting from the 100CR, there were some good things.

Such as submachine guns priced at 200CR, and assault rifles priced at 300CR. There were also bulletproof vests priced at 100CR and heavy-duty full-protection bulletproof armor priced at 300CR.

Bullets were very cheap and he could buy three for 1CR, which was equivalent to a kilogram of rice.

"Why is there no Gauss Rifle?" Chu Guang directly scrolled the list to the bottom. He found some production tools he might use, but did not find the exoframe and Gauss Rifle.

Li Deban said with a serious expression, "Sorry, Mr. Administrator, our exoframes and Gauss Rifles are the possessions of our soldiers, and they can’t be sold."

Chu Guang nodded. "Understood. I’m sorry for being presumptuous."

I got it.

It seems that it is not easy for you to produce those things, at least not to the extent of giving everyone a set.

In Chu Guang’s impression, although the principle of the coil gun was very simple, it was actually a very expensive technology. It cost so much money that Americans actually installed the guns on the ship before dismantling them after getting the funds approved.

But it was actually very reasonable after thinking about it. After all, traditional artillery was much cheaper and easier to maintain. Once it was broken, people could simply change a barrel and then continue to fire it.

Chu Guang studied it all night the day before, but he didn’t know what material the magnetic rails of the Thorn were made of, and he didn’t dare to take it down to take a closer look.

He was not stupid.

What if the magnetic rails were filled with metallic hydrogen? Wouldn’t it blow up?

Researching incredible technology was more exciting than opening a loot box. After thinking about it, Chu Guang decided not to spend too much effort on it. After all, even if he understood it, he wouldn’t be able to make it; not to mention that he didn’t understand it at all.

Any small breakthrough was the accumulation of hundreds of research topics and tens of thousands of experimental results. And when the equivalent change accumulated into a qualitative change or became a mature technology, it would always contain tens of thousands of small breakthroughs.

He should just focus on opening loot boxes!

At least what came out of the loot box could be used immediately.

Only when there were weapons, could there be food. Only when they had food could they house more people. Only with people could he develop the industry, expand territory, and scavenge farther away. Only when grains, electricity, and other resources were all enough and the production capacity went up, would he have time to talk about the technology tree.

Otherwise, no one would be able to help him.

Chu Guang placed the list down and muttered, "There is no problem in terms of pay. Here, Hmm… One kilogram of rice cost 10 copper coins. So, I think the reasonable exchange rate is 1CR for 5 copper coins."

Chu Guang originally wanted to mention how 2CR would be worth 1 silver coin.

But on second thought, he changed to another high emotional intelligence statement.

However, he didn’t expect that the quartermaster’s friend didn’t appreciate his gesture. He shook his head and said. "Mr. Administrator, my words may be a bit straightforward. Our captain is just a soldier, so he really doesn’t understand this, but do you think I don’t understand either?"

"Let’s not go through so much trouble, and it’s pointless to use each other’s money. We won’t stay here forever. We will pay you according to the 1CR hourly rate. In terms of how much silver coins you plan to pay your residents, it is your internal issue so we won’t interfere."

"As for the problem that CR cannot be circulated normally, we have solved it for you. The list in your hand was summarized by our logistics colleagues working through the night. I believe that the materials listed above are definitely better than any caravan can provide. What do you think?"

To sum up everything he said… He was just telling Chu Guang that it was pointless to pull tricks like that to fool him!

He could pay as much hourly wages as he wanted to his people, but that was all they would pay him anyway.

Everything would be sold to him at cost price, which was already a great deal.

Chu Guang, who had been in sales for so many years, could of course understand what he meant. He had an embarrassed smile on his face and he chuckled softly, "That’s fine too."

Originally, he wanted to mention that the minimum hourly wage of his players was 1 silver coin, which should be 2CR. But he didn’t expect that they were quite smart and didn’t want his money at all.

Seeing Chu Guang agree to his condition, Li De looked at him cautiously and said, "Then can I think that we have reached an agreement?"

Yesterday, Lu Yang boasted to him that the administrator of Shelter 404 was a very agreeable person, and they reached a consensus in less than ten minutes.

Now it seemed that it wasn’t that Chu Guang was agreeable. Their captain was just way too naive.

"Half of it," Chu Guang nodded and continued, "Your captain promised me that he would provide room and food for our people. After all, there is a distance of 10 kilometers from us to you, and it is impossible for our people to waste so much time on the road every day. Their food supplies are also a big problem."

When hearing how Chu Guang was going to continue, Li De was groping for the blood pressure medicine in his pocket. He relaxed his nerves when he heard the second half of the sentence.

It was a reasonable request indeed.

"You can rest assured, we have built a temporary camp for your workers. Although it is not as comfortable as the shelter, there is no problem to protect them from wind and cold. For meals, we will prepare a mobile kitchen for you, providing three meals a day according to the standard of 1CR per meal."

Chu Guang nodded, thoughtfully. "Every meal is 1CR, so it would cost you 3CR a day, right?"

Li De was confused for a moment, then nodded cautiously. "Uh, yes sir."

Chu Guang showed a smile on his face.

"According to the standard of 3CR per person per day, you can just pay us directly. We will make centralized purchases and prepare our own food. In this way, you don’t need to prepare any mobile kitchen, just give us some pots and pans. What do you think?"

Li De looked confused.

The hell?! He wants to be paid for their food as well?!

However, instead of expressing his opinion immediately, he silently calculated the cost in his mind.

If he needed to deploy mobile kitchens in the camps of these workers, the actual cost per day would be at least 1000CR. If someone had a bad stomach ache, they would also file a complaint.

Similar problems had arisen when they cooperated with native people in the past.

According to the standard of 3CR per person per day, 200 people would cost them 600CR. Their cost would be cut by 40%, and there was no risk.

Li De nodded decisively. "Okay!"

Chu Guang also extended his right hand decisively. "Deal!"

After reaching a consensus, the two parties quickly drew up a contract in black and white, signed their names on it, and pressed their fingerprints instead of the official seal.

At this moment, Li De finally realized why the captain spoke so highly of the administrator.

Indeed… This man works too efficiently!

It is really a shame for him to stay here...

Luo Hua, the head of the office, stayed, while Li De set off under the escort of Ace and returned to the vehicle.

After that, Ace would return to the outpost and use the materials brought with Luo Hua to build a simple barracks as an office.

"The conditions here are too simple... They are still using the primitive steel-making method to produce steel." Looking at the big chimney to the south, Luo Hua couldn’t help but sigh.

Ace did not comment on these facilities, but said after being silent for a while, "That person is very strong."

"Very strong?"

"Mhm, he is an Ability User, probably in the first stage," Ace muttered.

"Who are you talking about again?" Luo Hua looked around curiously and found that there were quite a few shelter residents around.

These people looked at them curiously, not knowing what they were thinking.

"The one who talked to you before."

"You mean their administrator?" Luo Hua looked surprised, "but I remember that awakening actually requires..."

"Going through countless trials of life and death, and passing by the gates of hell at least once." Ace was still expressionless, but there was a hint of caution in her pupils. She actually said one more sentence than she normally would, which was a very rare thing for her to do.

It seemed that the captain’s assessment was correct.

That guy is very strong.
