Ark’s apocalyptic line, but the fourth natural disaster!

Tu Shanyao just thought about these words in his heart. On the surface, he still pretended not to understand.

Farul looked at Tu Shan Yao, whose expression showed no change, "Brother Yao, I know... mutant aliens are difficult to deal with. For this reason, you even suffered a lot of casualties."

"However, our settlement has some problems now. In terms of manpower, it is not enough."

"Let's do this. I will increase the reward by 30%. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Tu Shanyao looked troubled, "Brother Farul, this matter is not easy to handle."

"The soldiers I sent there are the most brave and skilled warriors here. Any one of them is an indispensable fighting force for the settlement."

"I hope you understand what I mean."

"Of course." Farul suddenly realized that no wonder those guys were so strong. They turned out to be specially selected warriors. "I can increase the reward by 60%."

"Brother Yao, this is already the highest reward. No matter how high it is, we won't be able to feed ourselves."

Damn it, this Saluzzo settlement has so much food?

"Brother, since you said so, it's not impossible." Tu Shanyao said reluctantly, "However, some changes need to be made in the rules."

"Rules?" Farul didn't quite understand, "What does Brother Yao mean?"

Tu Shanyao took out a boat coin and said, "My soldiers like this thing more than food."

"Is this...currency?" Farul remembered the last time he bought breakfast here.

"Yes, as long as you send them this and use my means to help them, there will be no problem."

"But...I don't have this kind of currency." Farul said.

"This is simple." Tu Shanyao said, "You can prepay part of the food as reward, and I will give you some boat coins in proportion, isn't that enough?"

When Farul heard this, he thought about it carefully. After all, food had to be given to them, morning and evening.

"I can promise you that if you have endless boat coins, you can return them in full." Tu Shanyao gave the final bargaining chip, "We can even make a contract."

"I still want to believe in Brother Yao's character." Farul said, "Besides, Miss Lapland is acquainted with you."

Farul was wily and thoughtful, and after a little thought, he came up with the pros and cons.

It seems that this matter is a transaction of equal value.

But this involves matters related to currency circulation.

However, he is not an expert in this field and has no understanding of monetary economics.

Besides, given the current situation in the Saluzzo settlement, there is no better way.

"How about it? This method is the best I can think of." Tu Shanyao said, "Sometimes, the soldiers participate voluntarily and I order them to go. The nature is different."

"I hope Brother Farul understands the difference."

Of course Farul understood that if he participated voluntarily, even if there were casualties, it would have nothing to do with the shrewd lord in front of him and would not affect his dominance and image.

His guess about Tu Shanyao is correct in an ordinary settlement.

But for settlements and players, it simply doesn't exist.

Tu Shanyao wanted this effect and deliberately led Farul to think in this direction, thereby relaxing his suspicions about currency circulation.

In a way, this is also a wise move.

Farul would agree to this condition whenever he wanted help.

Because in his opinion, using some supplies to hire some capable people to deal with those disgusting mutant aliens is a good deal.

Anyway, the people who died were not from the Saluzzo settlement, they just gave some resources.

The problem is not big.

Therefore, Farul even felt that he had made a profit.

187 The Thoughts of the Clone Captive (Bounty Update 12)

After the two reached an agreement and discussed the relevant details in detail, Farul stood up and left.

Tu Shanyao temporarily gave him 1000 boat coins, and the corresponding grain will be delivered today.

Before leaving, Farul also asked his men to buy some breakfast to take back.

After coming out of the reception room, Tu Shanyao also went to have breakfast, and then carried a basket of steaming buns to the temporary tent where the prisoners were held.

A total of 33 people were tied up hand and foot and lying on the ground.

After being hungry for two days and two nights, these people all looked listless, and some of them were injured and looked like they were dying.

"Tifei, what's the result?"

Ti Fei looked at the subtitles on the bracelet, and then looked at the food in Tu Shanyao's hand.

So delicious.

He swallowed subconsciously.

"Sir, everyone has almost agreed." Tiffey said, "We are willing to engage in hard labor."

"OK, you did a good job." Tu Shanyao said, "Someone will come with food soon to untie the rope for you."

"I hope you can recognize the reality. Dougal is dead."

"Have you ever wondered why that guy is an arthropod?"

"Look at your bodies again. You are primates, humans on the land of Terra. You are inextricably linked to this land, not interstellar soldiers."

"Can you remember your parents?"

"Where are your childhood memories?"

"Dougal is not your master, but your enemy."

"Think about this carefully."

After Tu Shanyao finished speaking, he left.

These words were just what he said on the spur of the moment, in view of the tragic life experiences of these clones who were kept in the dark.

In the tent, the prisoners looked at each other and looked at Tifei, asking for an interpreter.

"Tiffey, what did he say?"

Tifei read the translated characters to everyone without hesitation or tampering.

Some people who heard these words were shocked, some were pensive, and some were indifferent.

"Tiffey, what do you think?" Griffith pupated for a moment and came to Tiffey's side.

"How do you see it? Use your eyes to see it." Tifei breathed out, "Without food, we will starve to death within a day."

"Boss Dougal is dead and we can't go back."

"I don't want to die, I want to live."

"Tife!" Griffith shouted, "Have you never thought about why we are of the same race as these natives?"

"What are you thinking about?" Tifei slowly leaned on the floor, "Let's talk about it after we're full."

There are many people who think the same as Tifei. For them, staying alive is the first goal.

But there are many people who think the same as Griffiths.

Clones with independent personalities, like AIs with thoughts, will sooner or later start to think about their own existence when they develop to a certain point.

But having said that, these guys are just a group of children with independent personalities. In their 18-year-old bodies, they probably contain the souls of [-] or [-] years old.

Tu Shanyao left the temporary tent, found Isaac, and brought him a riot suit and 9 sets of tactical bulletproof vests + standard combat uniforms + standard combat knives from the warehouse.

After explaining Isaac's mission, Tu Shanyao came to a single tent again.

Inside, there was also a man in a robe with his hands and feet bound, lying on the ground unconscious.

This guy was the tower guardian. He was not dead at the time. He was still alive and was picked up by Tu Shanyao.

Although he had an emergency treatment needle in his hand, he didn't want to give it to this person.

Life or death depends on him.

After a while.

Isaac came to the tent with 10 guards, who brought porridge and steamed buns for 33 people.

"The lord said that you have people here who can understand."

"As prisoners, I hope you will be more conscious."

"Don't take your lord's kindness for granted."

"Otherwise, all that awaits you is death."

With the food in hand, the prisoners devoured it voraciously and immediately felt that their bodies had regained some strength.

Isaac bandaged the injured prisoners and led them to familiarize themselves with the territory.

After the next meal, work begins.

The job Tu Shanyao arranged for these people was to build an office building to hide the door outside the retractable door of the survival base.

In the settlement, the buildings currently under construction or preparing for construction include satellite buildings, accommodation buildings, and office buildings in front of the gate.

The satellite building is now almost complete, and the foundations for the others have just begun.

In order to solve the problem of power supply for the satellite building, Tu Shanyao came to the southern dam of Weixi Lake and found Jiujiu and Zhaiyu Zhaiyu who were responsible for building the hydropower station.

"Administrator, you are here at the right time." Jiujiu said while standing next to the greatly changed embankment.

"How are you doing?"

"It's almost done." Jiujiu pointed to the cement-poured building behind him, "The main body is complete, only the reducer is needed."

"Reducer?" Tu Shanyao said, "This is difficult... Jiujiu, there are scrap vehicles in Lot 01. Can those gearboxes be used?"

"Oh no, Sir Administrator, you misunderstood." Jiujiu said, "The reason why I was looking for you is to borrow a lathe. I have a design drawing of a reducer here and I need to machine some gears."

lathe?

"Okay, the lathe is in Patsyline's hands now." Tu Shanyao said, "I'll give him a message and ask him to fully cooperate with you."
