This Game Is Too Realistic

Chapter 335 Infrastructure Maniac (1/2)

Just as the cattle and horse team followed Tris's footsteps and headed towards Camp 101 deep underground, the construction of the new settlement was also in full swing.

With the words "Lima City" written on the board and the half-collapsed concrete piers hung up, the construction plan for the second survivor settlement of the New Alliance was officially announced!

Long before the Battle of Songlinyu began, the New Alliance's logistics department had made a plan to develop a new settlement under the instruction of the managers.

A large amount of construction aid materials had been sent to the warehouse in Qingshi County via railway in advance. A few days later, as soon as Chu Guang announced the victory of the war, these materials were loaded on trucks, and before it was fully light, they drove from the rear. front line.

These supplies include 2,000 steel axes, 1,600 shovels, as well as a large number of bucket trucks, three-wheeled, two-wheeled carts and other human transportation tools.

Along with this batch of supplies arrived, there were more than 300 relief workers.

Many of these people are NPCs who participated in the construction of outpost bases in the early stages, and some are real-life professional players with relevant experience.

They have rich experience in construction projects and have passed the test of practice. They have made great contributions to the construction of Shuguang City.

Although opening up wasteland is a hard job, when the alliance needed them, they still showed up here without hesitation.

Or because of loyalty.

Or a task guide...

The truck was parked at the entrance to the campground.

Before the car could stop, Knife Ryuren jumped out of the car and shouted hello loudly.

"Get off the bus, get off the bus, let's get to work, brothers!"

"The expansion will end tonight, so hurry up while you can still earn some points!"

"Oli, here you go!" Everyone responded enthusiastically, and the young power players jumped out of the truck first and walked to the truck transporting supplies.

Under the leadership of Brother Dao, they unloaded the materials from the truck and stacked them in categories to prepare for the distribution of tools later.

Although in reality, no one is even willing to sweep the floor, in the game, one or two of them are transformed into Aryan supermen, and one person wishes he could do the work of two cows.

Especially when I heard that construction tasks also have achievements that can be unlocked, and players who meet the conditions can even climb the city monument and be remembered as the heroes of Lida City together with those players who performed outstandingly on the battlefield, the power-type dry cells were immediately excited. .

tired?

There is no 㱕.

This crappy game will make you sweat, pant, and your arms will become stiff and even dull, but it won't feel "uncomfortable".

The pain sensation beyond the limit will be blocked, and fatigue is not a problem as long as it does not reach the level of [fainting].

Under the command of Brother Dao, a group of players were busy and having fun.

The NPCs nearby saw this scene and were filled with admiration and encouragement.

Even those "pampered" blue jackets are working so hard, what reason do they have to be lazy? Why do you still want to fish?

Thinking of this, everyone rolled up spontaneously.

A group of fifty trucks, with the concerted efforts of everyone, unloaded all the supplies in less than half an hour.

The truck continued to drive towards Qingshi County, preparing for the second trip.

At the same time, Shi Yu came to the other side of the scene.

Temporarily acting as a horseman in the city of Lipa, he met the captain of the construction aid team next to the remains of the viaduct and told him about the situation here.

"... There are 5,731 registered residents, and nearly 10,000 freed slaves will arrive in the future."

"The most urgent thing now is that we need to prepare enough housing for these people."

The captain of the aid team is named Rudy. This man was once the tenth commander of Vanus. He was released early due to his good performance in the labor reform.

After regaining his freedom, this former low-level army officer did not return home. Instead, he chose to stay, fight for a greater cause and ideal, and start another life as a resident of the New Alliance.

Rudy: "Where are the prisoners of war?"

Ma Ban: "Still in the city."

There are more than 20,000 prisoners of war. It will take time to digest these people. In addition, they must be organized to build prisoner of war camps. I am afraid they will not be able to do it in a short time.

After understanding the situation, Rudy stared at the map for a while and said immediately.

"I have a general understanding of the situation here. The construction materials will be delivered before noon. What we need to do now is to clear a piece of land as soon as possible. How many people can be here now?"

Ma Ban replied rigorously.

"Except for the wounded, sick, pregnant women and children under 12 years old... we can mobilize more than 4,000 people."

Rudy nodded and said.

"That's enough. I need them to gather here immediately, and I will arrange specific operations for them."

"Leave it to me!"

After leaving these words, Ma Ban immediately found Wu Chengyi and others, and with the help of the leadership team of the resistance organization, completed the mobilization of survivors.

The crowd slowly gathered in the open space next to the remains of the viaduct. Among them were soldiers from the Third Corps, young people carrying luggage, even children with immature faces, and old people with rickety bodies.

Several of them had a look of malnutrition on their faces, but they were much thinner than a month ago. Although it can't be said to be full of energy, at least I can't see the hesitation and confusion.

Looking at the dark crowd in front of him, Rudy picked up the speaker and spoke in a loud voice.

"Time is precious, so I'll make a long story short. We need to prepare 1,000 units of emergency housing before dark!"

"I need you to lend me your power!"

Hearing this sentence, everyone looked at each other.

Prepare 1,000 housing units before dark?

Is this guy serious?

Regarding this whimsical idea, almost all the survivors were filled with doubts and whispered among themselves.

Without explaining anything, Rudy immediately assigned tasks to everyone after doing a simple mobilization.

The 4,000 people were divided into more than 300 groups of varying sizes, led by more than 300 leaders, each performing their own duties and involved in the construction of the settlement.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, the survivors of Lipa City quickly cleared the land around the trenches, and used transport vehicles such as bucket trucks, three-wheelers, and pallet trucks to transport the concrete debris and large pieces of garbage. Outside the camp.

As the open space was cleared, sheets of aluminum plates and aluminum alloy brackets were dragged over by tricycles and pallet trucks.

Looking at the materials and tools piled in the open space, the thin man's face was filled with confusion.

"What is this?"

His name is Liu Dali, and he was a farmer before the Bone Chewing Tribe came here.

Later, his home was burned down and his wife and children were gone, so he joined the guerrillas and is now a soldier in the Third Corps of the New Alliance.

Not only did he not understand what these things were for, but the other survivors standing nearby also did the same, exchanging glances in confusion.

At this time, a leader of the construction aid team appeared in front of them and answered their confusion.

"These are all building materials for building a house. You can live in them after assembling them. Our group task is 4. I will teach you how to do it in a while, and you will learn it quickly."

"Building materials?" Liu Dali was stunned for a moment.

The fellow countryman standing next to him said the same thing, confused.

"Can this thing build a house?"

Even if you are building a shack, aluminum alloy plates alone are not enough.

Facing everyone's doubtful gazes, the man looked slightly proud and said with a smile.

"This thing can not only build a house, but also has a lot of space. Stop talking nonsense and come help quickly."

As he spoke, he threw the gloves to everyone and warned them carefully, "Be sure to wear this when you are working, so as not to hurt yourself."

"Our team has four tasks. Let's work harder and try to finish it before 6 p.m.! Our captain said that if we can complete all tasks before 6 p.m., the entire team will be rewarded!"

As soon as they heard that there was a reward, everyone suddenly became curious.

"What reward?"

"Crab cakes! One for each person!"

Meat!

Upon hearing this reward, everyone was instantly excited. Without saying a word, they put on their gloves and started working under the arrangement of Touji.

For the same reward, if Shuguang City was released, I am afraid not many people would be interested.

This is a famine-ridden Xizhou, and even a piece of green wheat cake is regarded as a delicacy.

When they heard that there was meat to eat, everyone wished their eyes would glow green, and they only wished their parents didn't have two extra hands.

Two aluminum plates were erected on the ground, with a bracket erected in the middle, and the connections were fixed with screws and nuts.

Then comes block 3, block 4...

As the pieces of aluminum plates were spliced ​​together, Liu Dali was soon surprised to find that a large square box had appeared in front of everyone before they knew it.

This "box" is quite large, covering an area of ​​20 square meters, and its floor height is over three meters.

The beds are bunk beds with doors and windows. There are 6 beds in a room. It doesn't look crowded at all, and the space is even a bit wasteful.

Seeing the labor in front of him come to nothing, Liu Dali was suddenly touched.

Since his home was destroyed and he lost his loved ones, he has been living in a haze, taking one day at a time.

But now, looking at the house in front of him, he suddenly felt a feeling that he had not felt for a long time.

He didn't know how to describe that feeling, or even where it came from, but he could feel that it existed.

Just like...

A candle light lit up in the darkness.

"Don't be stunned," he patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "We still have three missions left. Everyone, work harder and try to get one more before dinner starts at noon!"

Hearing his voice, Liu Dali came to his senses, put away his excitement, and nodded his head.

"Hey!"

It wasn't just Liu Dali's group who completed the first set of tasks.

All the rescue teams on the ground were working hard with all their strength.

The first 300 sets of prefabricated parts were assembled, and soon the second batch of materials was delivered by truck to the camp's stockpiling area.

As of 12 noon, nearly 500 container houses were standing on that barren land.

Although these houses are a bit simple, although they are small, they are well-equipped and can provide shelter from wind and rain.

As for keeping warm, it’s only the end of May.

The Valley Province will soon have the hottest three months of the year, and it is too early to worry about this issue now.

Looking at this spectacular scene in front of them, many people couldn't believe their eyes.

Especially Yang Duo, who once served as the warehouse manager of Hope Town, was more than surprised.

More is shocking!

It turns out that in his understanding, even if it is an emergency shack, he must first go to the city to pick up some iron sheds, steel bars and concrete blocks. In less than three days, it is impossible to accommodate 5,000 people under the roof.

The new alliance's implementation plan completely subverted his cognition.

The prefabricated houses produced on the assembly line are sent to the front line by trucks, and then assembled on site by workers.

Even ordinary people with no construction experience can complete the assembly of the entire house under the guidance of grassroots construction personnel.

The whole process takes less than three hours.

If you are skilled, even two hours is enough.

It's as fast as copy and paste.

With such huge infrastructure, industry and mobilization capabilities, no wonder they can win this war!

"How much do these houses... cost?" Wu Chengyi, who was standing aside, couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

Ma Ban thought for a moment and gave a rough number.

"I don't know the specifics. I heard that the price of Juncheng is about 300 silver coins, and the external price is 500 silver coins... which is equivalent to 2.5 automatic rifles."

Hearing these words, everyone around them exclaimed in amazement.

I heard that the per capita monthly income in the new alliance is around 400 silver coins. Doesn’t this mean that one month’s investment can buy one?

It's almost too cheap.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Ma Ban couldn't help but feel a touch of pride on his face.

Although he joined the new alliance only a few months ago, this does not prevent him from being proud of the achievements of the new alliance.

"A house costs 300 silver coins, and 1,000 would cost 300,000... Wouldn't it be too wasteful to only live in such a big house for 6 people?" Yang Duo looked slightly embarrassed.

Although we are now a family, after all, they have just joined this big family.

He spent so much money on others when he came in, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Seeing what he was thinking, Maban didn't give any explanation, just smiled and said softly.

"This is mainly due to hygiene considerations. Excessive living density can easily lead to infectious diseases. The management has personally told me that even in special periods, the per capita living area must be ensured to be more than two meters, and each dormitory must not exceed 6 people."

"More than that, the gentleman also told me that emergency housing can only be used as a transition and cannot be relied on for a long time. Within three months, we will make every family in Dawn City live in their own house!"

Wu Chengyi and Yang Duo exchanged glances and saw excitement in each other's eyes.

If it were before, when they were still living in underground tunnels, no one would take Ma Ban seriously when he said this to them, and they would just think that he was painting a picture.

Now...

Few doubt that they can do it.

Not far away, large pots were set up in a temporary shed. The appetizing aroma wafted out of the pot, and almost everyone couldn't help but swallow.

While the various relief teams were busy, the old and weak women and children who were unable to engage in arduous physical labor were not idle either. Under the guidance of the logistics staff, lunch was prepared, and the children carrying lunch boxes and kettles were waiting. Shuttle around on the ground and deliver lunch to each relief team.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

As of six o'clock in the evening, the construction team not only miraculously completed 1,000 emergency houses, but even exceeded the task and completed the public facilities such as toilets and water reservoirs that were originally planned to be built the next day. out.

There was a lot of excitement in the camp.

People gathered together and sat in front of a fire made of stones.

The firelight illuminated the smiling faces. People were holding bowls and eating while chatting, bragging, or chatting about their future plans.

Today's dinner was particularly sweet.

Especially the juicy crab cakes.

The survivors from Hope Town have never eaten such delicious food!

Seeing his brothers devouring the food, the leader smiled and boasted.

"When you have the chance someday, go to Dawn City and have a look. After you go there, you will know what paradise is on earth."

A surviving man who was working hard raised his head and said something vaguely before he could swallow the food in his mouth.

“I’ve heard that the crab cakes there are all you can eat!”

Yutou chuckled.

"Crab cakes? There are so many more delicious things than crab cakes!"

Liu Dali swallowed.

"for example?"

Looking at those longing and expectant eyes, the vanity in Yutou's heart was greatly satisfied, and he continued slowly.

"For example, a bowl of ramen for 4 silver coins, spicy sauce fried rice for 3 silver coins, steamed buns for 2 silver coins, various barbecues on wooden skewers, stir-fried vegetables in a large iron pot, and the more expensive ones include charcoal grilled monster steak. …”

As he spoke, he cursed secretly and said with a concerned look on his face, "Damn it, stop talking. I just finished eating and am hungry again!"

Seeing that the boss stopped talking, everyone suddenly became anxious.

"Don't."

"Keep talking."

"What the hell is that ramen?"

"And buns."

"It's too troublesome to explain. I might as well take a look for yourselves even if I say ten thousand words."

He put away his bowl, patted his trouser legs, stood up from the ground, and encouraged the brothers sitting in front of the fire.

"Just work hard."

"Auroville City was not built in a day, and the same goes for Auroville City. What is there, will be there sooner or later!"

Beside the fire not far away.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Dao Xia Liuren looked at the pop-up window that appeared on the VM screen. A happy smile finally appeared on his face, and he let out a sigh of relief.

"It's done!"

[Task: Complete 1,000 emergency buildings (completed)]

["Infrastructure Maniac" Achievement Challenge: Complete the task before 6 p.m. (Achieved)]

Although the task was completed half an hour ago, the acceptance took a little time.

This game is always very real in strange places.

"...I heard that the prize pool this time is a big one, I hope I can get some good things." Sitting next to Dao Xia Liu Ren, Makabazi said with anticipation.

There were no flying missions in the past two days, and there was nothing going on at the farm, so he simply came to the front line to earn points.

"What's the jackpot?"

"It hasn't been announced yet. We won't know until the expansion pack is settled." After putting away the VM, Maka Bazi suddenly thought of something and looked at Dao Xia Liu Ren on the side and asked, "By the way, Brother Dao Are you doing this in reality?"

I remember that this brother has been the captain of the construction team a long time ago, and now he seems to have unlocked the professional title of "Chief Architect of the New Alliance".

The man under the knife said casually: "So be it."

Makabazi clasped his hands in admiration.

"Boss!"

The person who built the house was undoubtedly a big shot!

The person under the knife said dumbfounded: "What a hammer, you boss. I'm just an idle person in the workplace. Otherwise, I wouldn't have time to play games every day."

Makabazi continued to ask curiously: "But having said that, aren't you tired of playing this game in the game?"

The man under the knife thought for a while and said with a smile.

"I don't think so... I don't think so. To be honest, even if I were in this field in reality, it would be impossible for me to design a city, right? And some ideas that are impossible to achieve in reality are surprisingly effective here. There is a scene, but I enjoy it anyway.”

Makabazi was filled with admiration.

"Awesome! As expected of a boss! The pattern is just different!"

The man under the knife coughed lightly.

"I already told you that I am no longer a boss."

"The boss is so humble!"

Makabazi raised his head and glanced at the sky, stood up from the ground, patted the mud on his pants, sighed and said, "The social workers will have to go to work soon, so let's take a step first."

The man under the knife said with a smile.

"Go ahead, I'll be getting off soon. See you at the official website."

“See you on the official website!”

As he said that, Makabazi glanced at Brother Dao enviously.

"Hey, I wish I could be as free as you."

Keep someone under the knife: "..."

The military camp next to Dawn City.

Chu Guang, who was sitting in the barracks, was browsing the report sent by the logistics department through VM.

The construction work of Dawn City went very smoothly. The construction team completed a thousand emergency houses in only one day.

The electrical level of New Alliance is very high, and many tools rely on the power grid.

Although a batch of firewood-burning trucks were seized from looters, the vast majority of trucks in the New Alliance are still mainly self-produced "e-mules".

Although this kind of electric truck is good, it cannot operate off the grid for a long time.

There is also the player’s save point, which is also a big consumer of power. There are no generators on the front line, and power must be supplied by trucks' batteries.

"...It would be great if the reactor could be repaired as soon as possible."

After reading the report from the Logistics Department from beginning to end, Chu Guang thought for a moment, reached for his earphones, put them on, and spoke.

"Xiao Qi."

An energetic voice came from my ears.

"I'm here, Master."

Chu Guang: "Notify Luca for me and ask him to prepare a wood generator and send it here as soon as possible. The power rate is required to be above 100KW."

Xiao Qi said enthusiastically: "Got it! Leave it to me!"

Communication ends.

Chu Guang was planning to get up and go outside to eat something.

At this moment, a communication request pop-up window suddenly popped up at the top of the VM screen.

Seeing that the call was from Lu Bei, Chu Guang didn't hesitate and immediately pressed the connect button, skipping the pleasantries and getting straight to the point.

"How is the situation over there? Have you met the residents of Vault 101?"
