"General, this is a recently developed cartography."
Guo Yun ran to Tang Zheng's official residence sweating profusely and presented three drawings.
During this period, Guo Yun was the busiest person. Not only did he have to study the laws of the evolution of the Corpse King, he was also responsible for drawing maps.
Fortunately, Tang Zheng assigned all ten scientific research soldiers from the Ministry of Interior to him, otherwise he would be busy to death.
Moreover, Tang Zheng pressed hard for drawings. He also worked day and night and finally produced three drawings.
Tang Zheng saw the three drawings and took them over with satisfaction.
[Vehicle Modification Center: Priced at 500,000 gold.]
"Tell me, what are these three buildings used for?"
"General, this fresh water purification plant is very simple. It is a device that can purify fresh water. We have laid heating pipes, sewage pipes, and water supply pipes in Zhuguang City. However, the water of Fengming River is mineral water, which is not suitable for all people.
, the freshwater purification plant directly uses groundwater, and after purification, it becomes pure water, which can be directly transported to thousands of households."
Tang Zheng nodded, this is something used for people's livelihood, and it is still necessary to build one.
Nowadays, the population in the city is increasing, and tap water is not yet widely available. Everyone goes to Fengming River to get water, which gradually pollutes Fengming River.
Moreover, it is very inconvenient for Tangtang to go out. There are already many legends about the Fengming River water monster in the city.
"There is also the military camp. It is still very inconvenient for our soldiers to rest. They basically sleep in sleeping bags issued by the general. The soldiers need a home, so this military camp was built."
"I designed the military camp based on the number of troops. The maximum number of people in a military camp is 2,500, which is a battalion. It covers an area of 100,000 square meters. It has a school ground, dormitories, shooting ranges, expansion training camps, garages, canteens, bathrooms and other buildings.
"
After hearing Guo Yun's introduction, Tang Zheng felt that it was not expensive.
If the military camp is to be set up in the inner city, one hundred thousand square meters sounds like a lot, but compared to the inner city area of nearly five square kilometers, it is actually only a very small part.
But what Guo Yun said next made Tang Zheng a little surprised.
"General, you should use the map of the military camp with caution, because if you add troops next, you will be restricted by the military camp. How many troops can be purchased according to the number of military camps, because soldiers also need shelter."
Tang Zheng was stunned for a moment: "You mean, if I upgrade the Light Chasing Army to a regiment, then many military camps will be needed?"
"Yes, General, assuming the total number of our regiment is 10,000 in the future, then you will need to build four military camps."
One military camp costs 200,000 gold, and four is 800,000 gold. It is no longer a small number.
But Tang Zheng didn't think there was anything wrong with this. There had never been a military camp before, and it seemed like he had treated the soldiers badly.
Although there are some restrictions on the construction of military camps, he completely agrees that if he can't even build military camps, then he would rather not expand the army.
Thinking in his mind, he had already planned the locations of some military camps in the inner city.
In the future, he will definitely upgrade the regiment commander. Maybe four military camps are not enough. After all, according to the current configuration, five field battalions will have 12,500 people.
Seeing the last building, the vehicle modification center, Tang Zheng asked Guo Yun.
"What is this? The price is 500,000 yuan, which is much more expensive than a military camp?"
"General, this is a recent breakthrough made by our research institute. The acid-resistant technology and rust removal technology are all mechanically operated. As long as you build this modification center, you can send some old vehicles into the center's workshop.
Within an hour, after one hour of modification, you can basically get a new car back."
"Oh! And there is this kind of technology?"
"That's right, General, I suggest that this center should also be placed in the inner city. Now in the entire Light Chaser City, including the Northern Region, almost no ordinary survivors own vehicles. Only those adventurers, mercenary groups and the like can
There are some jeeps and trucks, and they are often scrapped. The shortage of vehicles is already a big problem. With this, we have a steady source of wealth and can manufacture cars in large quantities."
Tang Zheng was very excited when he heard the prospects described by Guo Yun.
But he quickly thought of a problem: "Wealth...but now there is no currency that can be used in this region."
"General, I also need to discuss this with you. Our Zhuguang City is currently developing at a rapid pace, with a large influx of people and rapid construction of buildings. Many projects are gradually being completed. It is expected that before January, Zhuguang City will have
The buildings are all completed, and the total population may reach one million, which is close to the size of a small county before the end of the world, so I think we already have the basis for issuing currency."
After hearing this, Tang Zheng didn't speak for a while.
According to Guo Yun, there is no problem in issuing currency on a small scale, but Tang Zheng's considerations were more far-reaching.
Because he knows that as time goes by, he will have to deal with the empire sooner or later.
In the history of Han Dynasty, issuing currency has been the exclusive right of the royal family. If he issued currency, it would be almost equivalent to going against the royal family.
Guo Yun here was not as far-reaching as Tang Zheng thought, and he was still talking nonstop: "General, there are rumors now. The alliance is also preparing to issue currency. We can't fall behind."
"We can produce cars at almost no cost, and we can also sell our firearms and tanks. In addition, we have technology that no one else has, which is anti-viral serum. These can be sold. If you want to buy these
Things, then we can only use our currency. With such a good foundation, other forces will not be competitive even if they issue currencies. Our currency will become a universal currency. It is foreseeable that countless materials will flood here in the future. We will
is the richest..."
After listening to these, Tang Zheng finally made up his mind.
There is no contact with the empire yet, so it is indeed a good opportunity. As for the future, no one can say for sure now.
The one closest to Chasing Light City is Liu Yibang's Imperial Fifth Army.
The Fifth Group is stationed in Jingchuan County, Lianghe Province, about 1,300 kilometers away from Zhuguang City.
But if you want to get here from Jingchuan, there is one place that is almost impossible to bypass, and that is Hezhou City.
Hezhou is a city with a population of 50 million, and the number of zombies is now almost 40 million. It is definitely not an easy task for the Fifth Army to come from there.
Therefore, it is not possible to border the imperial forces in the short term.
If it's soon, it will probably be next spring.
Thinking of this, Tang Zheng finally made a decision.
"Get ready, I agree to this."
"Okay general, then my next drawing should be the money printing factory."
Tang Zheng nodded. After making the decision, he no longer had so many worries and felt relieved.
"Are there any other mapping ideas?"
"Yes, the acid rain after the apocalypse has caused most metals to corrode, and many wire lines, signal tower base stations, etc. are no longer usable. Our research institute is planning to start from this aspect. The next step will be to build TV lines in Zhuguang City.
Get up, then connect the surrounding areas and build TV stations.”
"TV station?"
"Yes, TV stations, and our line equipment, all have strong anti-acid functions. When the time comes, other places that want to produce TV programs will probably have to come to us to purchase them. These are also the future of our currency.
A strong foundation.”
Tang Zheng was also amused when he heard that Guo Yun kept talking about issuing currency.
It seems that these subordinates of mine have no respect for the empire or the royal family, and are only loyal to themselves.
However, Tang Zheng never intended to correct this kind of thing.
Guo Yun left, and Tang Zheng was preparing to build a new building.
Ning Yuwei drove a Willis and took Tang Zheng with her to start looking for a construction site in the inner city.
Tang Zheng chose a freshwater purification plant near the Fengming River.
Fifty thousand gold was spent, and the purification plant was built.
Like the power plant, it has thirty workers.
There is a large courtyard with good greening. There are two huge water towers 30 meters high and 50 meters in diameter, which can be recycled to ensure continuous water supply for the entire city.
After completing the construction of the fresh water purification plant, Tang Zheng then looked for a place to build a military camp.
He definitely wants to build more military camps, but he doesn't have a lot of funds at the moment, so he can just build one first.
Finally, Tang Zheng built the first military camp in the southeastern part of the inner city.
The huge military camp covering an area of 100,000 square meters was laid out, and Tang Zheng thought it was a miracle.
There are six dormitory buildings, enough to accommodate 2,500 people.
The military camp has a twenty-meter-wide electric gate, and the driveway surrounds the military camp.
There is a large school field inside, with a running track, horizontal bars, parallel bars and other outdoor fitness equipment.
There is also a shooting range near the city wall where soldiers can practice their marksmanship.
There is also a canteen inside, so that the cooking troops can be stationed there, so the soldiers do not have to eat and sleep outside.
Tang Zheng deliberately entered the dormitory building and took a look. There were male soldiers' dormitories and female soldiers' dormitories, but they were not on the same floor.
The dormitories are all eight-person rooms with bunk beds. The interior is spacious and bright. The solid wood beds, internal kettles, bedding, etc. are all brand new.
Moreover, each dormitory has its own shower room, and the facilities in the bathroom are relatively complete, comparable to that of an ordinary hotel.
When you open the faucet, the tap water inside is already flowing. This is the advantage of building a freshwater purification plant first.
The platoon leader has a separate room, and there is also a medical room in the dormitory building, as well as an indoor gym.
After leaving the dormitory building, there are garages under the dormitories of each company where vehicles can be parked.
There is even an expansion training center here. The so-called expansion training is to simulate actual combat. The troops can organize internal confrontations and conduct actual combat drills.
After looking around, Tang Zheng became more and more satisfied.
This is the life a soldier should have. He didn't treat soldiers well enough in the past.
From now on, the soldiers of the Light Chasing Army will not only fight, but also have superior logistical support.
Tang Zheng didn't feel bad at all after spending 200,000 yuan.
But the next construction project requires half a million dollars.
Tang Zheng looked at the money in his hand. After collecting a wave of funds after killing the corpses, the money in his hand had risen to just over 2 million, and now it had dropped to 1.8 million.
After the construction of this vehicle modification center was completed, the money in hand was only 1.3 million, and the gap between upgrading to the group leader widened.
