Although this album was newly printed today, it still has the smell of ink.

But compared to the pictures that come with the product.

Some of the previous products are obviously processed pictures, pictures for exoskeletons...

Why does it look like it was newly photographed?

It's obviously not the same painting style, okay?

"Ahem, that's it." Walter coughed slightly and explained slightly awkwardly: "Some of the products in front were brought out from the foundation, so the pictures and introductions are the same as before. The latter ones are what we have brought from the foundation.

Occasionally obtained from transactions during the journey, but please rest assured that as long as the goods sold by our foundation’s caravan are of quality, they will be guaranteed.”

"And as you can see, his price is very low, which means we are clearing out the stock."

To sum it up, what kind of bike do you want at this price?

Even if there is something wrong with this mechanical exoskeleton, someone will come to the door and push it on the head of the Foundation's caravan.

The prices of things are so cheap, it’s very conscientious to share some risks when buying them.

Su Mo, who had roughly guessed the origin of this thing, showed an uncertain smile on his face, nodded slightly and said:

"Well...these clearance items are exactly what we need."

It seems that the Red Spider Caravan did not suppress its loneliness last night and participated in the disputes in the western suburbs?

This group of people's skills are really impressive. They were able to obtain a complete exoskeleton armor from Pingtan Shelter.

Seeing that Sumo was not planning to continue asking, Walter breathed a sigh of relief and said cautiously:

"Mr. Manager, if you are still satisfied with these products, I wonder if we can start discussing specific cooperation?"

Although the manager of Tianyuan Shelter is not as difficult to deal with as expected, he is much easier to get along with than the managers of several large-scale shelters that he has dealt with before.

But for some reason, Walter always felt like he was being seen through.

This is simply too weird.

"Of course, this is what we are going to talk about next." Sumo nodded and continued: "Captain Sean reached a preliminary agreement with me yesterday. To put it simply... you need a lot of basic materials and some

Laborers, go to Qinggang City to help recycle that moss, right?"

Walter nodded seriously.

"Yes, we may need fifty male workers to enter Qinggang City for collection work. Each person will be paid at the rate of two commercial coupons per day. In addition, during the work period, we will be responsible for their daily needs, such as food and accommodation.

There's plenty of room on the Red Spider chariot."

"As for the price of the materials, Captain Sean said that you don't want to use coupons to settle the bill. You want to directly exchange the materials for the items on our list. That's okay. But we also need to find a relay to serve as a value anchor. You see

Should we use our coupons or your refuge’s currency?”

The Foundation's caravan has not had to worry about trading items for a long time.

Whether you go to a pre-war city or a gathering place built after the war, coupons are always hard currency.

This is the first time since the establishment of the Red Spider Caravan that commercial coupons are exchanged for local currency.

However, it was somewhat different from what Walter had expected. This kind-hearted manager didn't seem to like this approach.

"Relay?"

Sumo smiled and shook his head.

"This is too troublesome. With relays, we have to agree on the corresponding value of each item. In the end, don't I exchange the materials for your coupons, and then use the coupons for consumption?"

"Do you think this is okay? Let's just discuss an overall figure. What is the specific number of materials required by the Red Spider Caravan, and what is your ideal price? If the price multiplied by the two can be negotiated,

Then you don’t have to worry about subsequent transactions.”

"And you also know that the commercial coupons you issue to the residents under my command will still end up in my hands, and then I will use them to buy your goods. It would be better if you just package everyone's salary and living costs together and pay them together.

Give it to me, you don’t have to worry about their food and daily life, how about I add the money to the price of the material packaging and do centralized purchasing together?"

When he heard the words "too much trouble", Walter's expression still twitched.

But after hearing Soma's explanation later, he thought thoughtfully:

"Do you want...to use postpaid?"

Sumo was stunned for a moment, with a smile on his face.

This Walter was really a smart man, and he immediately understood the deeper meaning of his words.

When dealing with such people, there is no need to be secretive.

"Of course, I can't escape my shelter here. As long as we reach a cooperation agreement and the Red Spider Caravan can ensure that we can deliver enough materials, why can't we use it first, right?"

"And this deep-seated cooperative relationship will greatly increase the friendship between us. Tianyuan Sanctuary will remember the help of the Red Spider Caravan, and we will be your forever trading partners in the future."

If it were on Blue Star, the friendship in the gathering place would be nothing to mention in the Foundation's caravan.

But here, Sean specifically warned me before coming here.

Even if the selling price is lowered, the friendship between the two parties must be maintained as much as possible.

After thinking about it in his mind, Walter smiled.

"Okay, that's as you wish."

Soma stretched out his right hand and the two held it together.

"grateful!"

...

After putting everything together and calculating the price, the Red Spider Caravan quickly calculated the amount of materials.

The first is steel, which requires at least twenty tons. The Red Spider Chariot must reserve a lot of repair materials in advance for the harsh terrain it may encounter next, and prepare several tracks for replacement.

Secondly, other alloy materials, including the rarer tungsten, are also needed in large quantities.

Packing these things together, Walter gave a very sincere price.

20,000 coupons.

Three technologies to choose from.

Five hundred daily necessities to choose from.

Ten tons of starch and ten tons of protein are mixed into a nutritional paste that can feed two thousand people for a month.

Those coupons can be used to purchase goods according to the prices in the trading album.

For example, that exoskeleton armor only costs 750 coupons, and a total of eleven units is completely within the budget.

"On behalf of the Tianyuan Territory, I accept the offer from the Red Spider Caravan."

After meeting his psychological expectations, Sumo was not greedy and immediately drew up a contract in accordance with the foundation's standards.

The signing process was very simple, and the only witnesses throughout the process were Chen Shen and another staff member of the caravan, but the whole process made people feel a solemn atmosphere that can only be found in civilized times.

really.

If you want to restore civilization in this strange land, some sense of ritual is still needed.

It is these seemingly cumbersome things that subtly create a huge and well-regulated market environment.

With the signed contract in hand, Walter was satisfied and took his people back to resume his life.

Two days later, as Tianyuan Territory delivers the first batch of materials, the Red Spider Caravan will transport most of the trade goods in advance, treating the two parties as friends.

"The manager is really refreshing, and it's much easier to negotiate than we expected." As soon as he left the dungeon, Walter couldn't help but sigh.

Joseph, who was pretending to be a staff member next to him, was calm and still looking at the new industrial zone.

"It feels a little different to me here."

"no the same?"

"I have traveled far and wide, so I can estimate in my mind what kind of gathering place and where I will end up."

"But there's something different about Tianyuan Shelter, maybe it's another Buckshot!"

"Buck Crowe?!" Walter looked surprised: "There is potential for a holy city here, is it impossible?"

The famous holy city of Buluozhi on Blue Star.

At first it was just a small gathering place with only about twenty people.

But in just thirty years, they gathered a population of more than one million people from scratch and built a super-large city with an area no less than that of the pre-war era.

It is rumored that the level of technology within it has completely surpassed the peak of mankind and is developing towards another stage.

The famous academy is the largest force in the city controlled by Bucklow.

For a new gathering place, the highest praise is the four words "Bokeluozhi".

"Taking the road of self-developed industry and relying on finished machines are two completely different levels of difficulty. The former requires tens of thousands of times more effort than the latter. Blue Star has almost no gathering place other than Bucklow.

Doing such a thankless job."

"When I was young, I also thought about setting up an industrial factory so that I would no longer live such an uncertain life."
