Chapter 754 Pei Shaos keenness finally got the ore!
It’s time to eat.
Feng Long sneaked out of Liangfang with Wang Qian and others. He didn't say where he was going. He only sneakily said that he was invited by an old friend and promised to give him some powerful new gadgets. When the time came, he would take them to the Dragon Phoenix Territory for verification.
A lot of power.
Sumo stood at the door and sent the people away. He briefly observed the direction in which everyone was leaving and couldn't help but chuckle.
To say that the territory still has funds, research and development capabilities, and a place where energy can continuously supply new gadgets, the Academy of Sciences is the only one.
The new weapons developed by the Ordnance Industry Institute are directly taken to the battlefield of the Northern Military Region for experiments with the dwarves, which may be a bit risky.
But it would be just right to take it to the Dragon and Phoenix territory to play with these small fish and shrimps.
"Brother Su, if today's grain is sold out for another day, we won't have much inventory left. You said natural disasters are so frequent, do you want it?"
Sun Quan walked out of the courtyard and had put on a set of casual clothes. From top to bottom, his whole body was obviously much more refreshing and calm than a month ago.
"It's okay, just sell them all." Sumo smiled: "The territory of grain is obviously not going to fluctuate too much, and we won't allow anyone to stand up and sell high and buy low. We are just squeezing the space in our hands.
funds"
"That's right."
Sun Quan walked up quietly and whispered: "Brother Su, among the people we sent out in the first batch of heroes, we can detect that two of them have already given up halfway. It seems that they do not intend to continue the mission even if they are punished.
Now, do you think we should send some manpower to follow them?"
"It doesn't matter, don't worry about things that are expected!"
"Besides, these people are just ordinary people. Unless they are selected by us, they have no influence at all. No matter what they do."
Sumo was cautious before, but now that he understands the entire wasteland situation and has been in contact with Chen Shen, Pei Shao and others, he can naturally relax a little.
Furthermore, there are seventeen people in the first generation of the Heroes Association.
As long as Ge Jianan can successfully complete the task and pass the test, it will be enough to offset all the previous efforts.
It would be great for the remaining people to be able to complete the task and prove their strength and character.
It can't be proven, and it's just a loss of several hundred points.
"Okay, then I'm leaving"
Taking Liangfang's remaining employees with him, Sun Quan got into a rented truck and headed for Hope City.
Food, a hard currency, sells well everywhere.
With the purchasing power of Hope City, the summer harvest grain will be sold after tonight, bringing back over two million dollars.
Sumo looked at it from afar for a while, then closed the main door of Liangfang, hung up the wooden sign indicating that it was out of business, and walked to the research room.
Since the establishment of Zailiangfang, now is the time when manpower is at its lowest.
First of all, among the old employees, 30% of them who were unwilling to leave Sangtian Town chose to leave voluntarily under the expansion plan.
Later, 50% of the remaining 70% had already gone to the vicinity of Baoyu County and began to collect information and make preliminary preparations according to the plan.
The rest of the Zhang family, such as Zhang Da, Zhang Min, and a series of others, are also not idle in Sangtian Town.
They all chose to go to Baoyu County for research and store location selection.
Everyone in the Zhang family, except Zhang Bowen, is still staying in the research room, preparing for the upcoming exam of the Academy of Sciences on July 1st.
After all the calculations, only the remaining two men led by Sun Quan were left.
After the food sales are over, these people will also follow them to Baoyu County, and there will be even fewer people left in Liangfang. Only three or five people can barely keep the store running.
"Teacher, you are here!"
After experiencing some things, Zhang Bowen seemed to have grown up suddenly and matured a lot.
Seeing Somo open the door and walk in, he stood up respectfully and turned the book in his hand upside down on the table.
"How is your review going? Are you sure?" Sumo sat down, and the instrument sensed it and automatically entered the pre-opening mode.
The five robotic arms also opened their teeth and claws from the storage mode, which looked like a scene in a science fiction movie.
"I'm 80% sure, but I still have to see the level of the people competing with me."
Sitting back in his seat, Zhang Bowen smiled confidently. It was obvious that his true confidence was much higher than 80%.
The reason is quite simple.
People of the same age want to complete all university-level courses in a certain human subject at his age, and also develop and produce some results based on these courses. Let alone the intellectual impact, just talk about family support.
Very important.
And this support is nothing more than two points.
First, have money.
It must provide children with continuous learning for at least three to five years, without being disturbed by the external environment or natural disasters.
Second, there are people.
You have to find a good teacher who teaches through words and deeds, teaches students knowledge while guiding students to expand themselves and cultivate real scientific research thinking.
Both are indispensable, which directly blocks 99.9% of families from the door.
According to statistics compiled by some good people, there are nearly 3,000 candidates of the right age to apply for the Territory Academy of Sciences this time, coming from all over the world.
Among them, they collected information on most of the three thousand people and compiled a so-called "Dragon and Phoenix List".
There are three hundred people on the Dragon and Phoenix list, and they are all candidates who have a high probability of being admitted to the Academy of Sciences.
Zhang Bowen is also among them, ranking 139th, which is not a low ranking.
"Prepare well for the exam, and I will drive you to the Academy of Sciences on the day of the exam."
"Thank you, teacher!" Zhang Bowen's eyes lit up, and then he lowered his head more intently and began to silently read the knowledge points in the book.
This appearance reminded Sumo of the days when he studied hard in a cold window on earth.
"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it has been almost two years since I came to the wasteland."
In reality, most talents in the wasteland are only over half a year old.
But after going back and forth to the ruins many times, Soma's actual experience has long exceeded these people's time.
I’ve seen a lot, and it’s been a long time.
Not only was he no longer as resistant to the wasteland environment as before, but his previous eagerness to go home gradually cooled down.
In addition, he knows how to fight against the game and has a mysterious survival system.
Somo's perspective on the problem has gradually become more profound.
"Disasters are frequent, and it is indeed a terrifying genocide crisis for the human group."
"But at the same time, the opportunities also allow many ordinary people on the earth to obtain an extraordinary alternative life and have the possibility to write their own destiny."
"Whether it is right or wrong, good or bad, it is difficult to say now. We can only let time bring the answer."
"Maybe ten years later, twenty years later, maybe fifty years later, or even a hundred years later, as long as you persist, you will get the answer one day!"
Think about this.
Thinking of Sun Bahu, who inherited the ruins of the Yan Kingdom and chose to transform himself into a monster. Eight years later, there was no news about him. He most likely died on the way.
Sumo couldn't help but sigh, and once again dug out the mecha manufacturing drawings and studied them carefully.
It is better to use your remaining courage to chase the poor bandits, and not to use your reputation as an academic overlord.
No one can say what will happen in the future. All we can do is try our best within a limited time.
To give back, just give it time!
The next day.
Sun Quan drove an empty truck "back home with a full load" and transferred all Liangfang's profits during the entire summer harvest to Sumo's game panel account at once.
Compared with the previously calculated estimated harvest of 2.2 million, after paying a commercial tax, this amount actually increased by nearly 100,000 points, reaching a full 2.31 million.
"Brother Su, I have thought more than once in my dreams about how I would squander my trading points if I suddenly became rich in this life."
"But when this thing was really given to me, I was really suffering every second!"
On the way back, Sun Quan would open the game panel every three to five seconds to see if the points were still there, and his heart was pounding.
Now that he finally transferred all the points to Sumo, he breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground.
"Don't worry, you will have many days of suffering in the future."
"This is just the beginning, hahaha!"
He had never experienced the hard times that ordinary people had experienced in the past eight years. Seeing the sharp increase in points in his account, Su Mo laughed loudly, but he was not as uneasy as Sun Quan.
After all, the hard price for a managerial position in any medium-sized city in Longqi Territory is around 100 million points, regardless of the conditions.
With these two million points, even if you want to open a small shop in Fenghuo City, there is still a long way to go.
Moreover, the 1.7 million points for purchasing materials will be transferred to Pei Shao, and the 200,000 points for dividends will be spent by the store.
What was left in Somo's hands was only 400,000, and he was still poor.
Later, he wanted to upgrade the materials for each part of the mecha. Thinking about the consumption, Sumo felt an eagerness to make money in his heart.
"In the ruins, I must conduct comprehensive testing and upgrades on the armor to ensure that the Sun Chaser I can bring back will not need to be upgraded for a long time."
"Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a platform and materials for me to waste money on in the real wasteland!"
Got enough money together.
Sumo came to the kitchen and didn't see Pei Shao.
However, several of his disciples seemed to know the purpose of Sumo's trip, and actually dragged a large box directly from the storage room where the dishes were placed.
"Master said that he is going to visit an old friend in Longqi Territory these days. It will be a long time before he comes back."
"He said boss, you might not be able to let him go, so he packed his bags and left last night, so that you wouldn't miss him."
After patting the heavy box on the ground, Pei Shao sat down and his taller disciple, Chef Liu, touched his head and said shyly.
"This box is a gift that the master left for you, boss. He said that it contains some things that he had agreed with you before."
"The key. The key is here." After groping under the table leg for a while, the second disciple, Chef Li, took out an antique brass key.
This thing was found by everyone less than half a month ago, but they didn't know its function, so they used it as a small object to support the legs of a table.
It wasn't until Pei Shao left that they realized that this was actually the key to the box in the storage room, and they couldn't help but marvel.
"Where's the money? Who should I transfer the money to?" Sumo nodded after taking the key.
"Master said that your coming to the territory is the best gift to him. The contents of this box should be used as a congratulations on your return, and the money will not be used!"
"No money? Gift? Come back again?"
Three keywords were extracted.
A flash of astonishment flashed in Sumo's eyes, and then many thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.
The only person in the territory who can know his true identity is the deceased Ji Yang.
Although others knew that he had some relationship with the old lord, they did not know that under the strange skin in front of them was the Soma they were looking for.
But now, Pei Shao's performance and these words he left behind.
Thinking of the psionic water that he frequently added to his meals these days, and his suddenly subtle attitude, Sumo originally thought that Pei Shao was trying to maintain his identity as a chef and was adding drama to himself.
But now it seems that he has already discovered the true identity under the disguise and is testing it in another way.
Now, after getting the answer, Pei Shao chose to leave with satisfaction.
"Sure enough, people who do intelligence work are very smart. Pei Shao is a great talent!"
"I'm not as good as that."
Being able to discover his identity quietly, and being able to hold back his inner excitement and leave silently without being noticed by the game.
Somo couldn't help but sigh in his heart just for this skill of forbearance.
It is indeed difficult to guess his identity, but it is not impossible.
But on top of that, he could also think clearly about his reasons for hiding his identity and choose to respect this approach.
With this alone, Pei Shao directly proved his strength and value eight years later.
"Since he made it clear that he was going to the Longqi territory, he obviously didn't want to stay in the territory and show his feet, disrupting my plan."
"As for the reason why he went?" Thinking of his parents and sister who were still in Fenghuo City, Sumo couldn't help but clenched his fists.
Sure enough, Pei Shao still understands him!
The storm is coming, and once the agreement is announced to be terminated, the entire New World will inevitably fall into disputes.
Under this situation, whether it was eight years ago or eight years later, Pei Shao knew his responsibilities clearly.
He wanted Sumo to stand up without any worries and once again lead the Tianyuan Territory to rise!
"I understand. Since Master Pei said this, I will no longer be polite to the air."
"In a few days, Liangfang will move its focus to Baoyu County. I don't know about you."
When it came to business, the three chefs looked at each other and said in unison: "Master left an order before he left. Wherever Boss Su wants to go, we will naturally follow you."
"Okay, I'll let Sun Quan arrange it when the time comes!"
In order to pretend to be authentic, the three chefs are all subordinate employees of the Supervision Department.
But their cooking skills and past experience are all real, and the food they make tastes great.
After returning to the front yard and making arrangements with Sun Quan, Sumo quickly returned to the laboratory with the box.
Insert the brass key and turn gently.
The top lid of the box automatically popped up, revealing the colorful and exquisite rough stones inside, which were the high-end ores that Somo needed!
“Finally we can get on the right track”
"It only takes two months. When I create the Sun-Chasing Armor, I'll see who can stop me!"
The ferocious and unruly appearance of the murlocs flashed through his mind, as well as what he had seen of the large territories in the New World that were ready to take action against the Tianyuan territory.
Somo's slightly closed eyes suddenly opened, revealing an extraordinary light.
