Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland
Chapter 135 This is my home
Lu Meng returned to the hotel and met Huo Buyang.
"There is a wholesale center nearby, where you can buy some ores, building materials or small parts." Huo Buyang said.
His task today is to check out the locations.
Although Lu Meng himself had a general understanding of the situation, it would be better to have someone confirm it in person, so that Xiao Huo could familiarize himself with the environment in advance.
“There is one largest weapons store and one armor store in the entire Scone Town. Although other small stores can be opened, they are basically the distribution of these two.
"In addition, Shaq Military also opened a store, which may sell some old equipment that lacks maintenance and has been eliminated. It is very popular among the homeless warriors at the bottom.
"As for the usual places for those wandering soldiers, they are mostly two bars in the city, open all night, located in the north and south of the city."
After talking about the shops in the city that deserve attention, Huo Buyang took out the magnetic card and copper lock and gave them back to Lu Meng:
"Brother Lu, I met the contact person of the fraternity. He knew about our current situation and said he could help solve the work and license plate issues."
"It's just," Huo Buyang considered, "I feel like he is blackmailing us."
"He asked for 40,000 yuan."
That’s four times the entrance fee.
Even more expensive than buying a house.
Lu Meng tapped his fingers: "That's not necessarily the case."
Brotherhoods in various places do not belong to each other, and Old Tang's favors are not universal here.
What the members value is mutual benefit and reciprocity, and everyone gets what they need.
When you go to other places, it is normal to spend money on errands and take care of your joints.
certainly.
The more links there are to go through, the more kickbacks the other party will receive.
"You didn't reject him, did you?"
"Well, I said I'll think about it again."
"After all, there is one more way out...Have you bought those books?"
"Here," Huo Buyang took out a few more books, "Brother Lu, do you want to read them?"
Lu Meng glanced at the name on the cover.
It's roughly like "Engineering Drawing" and "Building Materials".
Lu Meng pushed them back to Xiao Huo: "Don't you love reading? I left them for you."
These are textbooks printed by mechanics and bought from the shops opened by technology hunters.
What is recorded is relatively basic knowledge.
Can help improve [engineering] skills.
It's more of a construction type.
It will be useful in future work such as repairing houses and building fortifications.
…
Lu Meng took Huo Buyang to visit the wholesale center. According to the "plate making table" drawings recorded in ancient science books, they looked at each house and selected the required materials.
It was difficult for the existing parts to match those in the records, so Lu Meng could only choose alternatives based on his own understanding.
Then transport them to the purchased longhouse for assembly.
Fortunately, the plate making table is a simple workbench that does not involve precision operations and can withstand the force of heavy hammer forging.
The rougher the appearance, the rougher it gets.
It is mainly used to produce [metal sheets for armor].
The process of heating and forging metal into pieces is relatively boring, but it also means that no fancy operations are required, making it most suitable for novices like Lu Meng to enter the industry.
But even if it succeeds, the final product will still be just scattered metal pieces and cannot be called armor.
Lu Meng had enough patience and took things step by step.
His skills also improved during the installation of the planking table.
【Project 2→4 (Introduction)】
"Engineering" is naturally not limited to civil engineering, and everyone has their own focus.
"clang--"
Lu Meng smashed the hammer down and landed on the table without any buffer. The whole board-making table roared.
"Okay, it's not falling apart." Lu Meng let go of the hammer.
This time he used 30% of his strength, which was not necessary for normal work.
It won't disturb people like this.
This is considered done.
After the installation was completed, it was getting late.
They actually bought several sets of wooden bed materials, but now they have no time to put them together.
The two simply locked the door, put two simple camping beds in a corner of the longhouse, and slept on the ground. Get up and start working tomorrow morning to save time on the round trip.
Lu Meng was lying on his side.
Look at the moonlight shining through.
Gravel, dead grass, rusty steel and rotten wood... everything in the long house seems to be covered with silver gauze, which is quite quiet.
The planking table sits in the middle, casting a lonely reflection.
he thought.
If this board-making table were a piano, then playing a piece of music at this moment would also be very artistic.
But change it to yourself.
The clanking sound of iron is more in tune.
However.
Several noises broke the silence.
"What the fuck is going on!"
Someone was shouting outside.
It was accompanied by a clanging sound, as if several people were shaking the iron gate of the longhouse.
More people were discussing outside the door:
"It wasn't this lock before!"
"That guy doesn't learn a lesson, does he? He changed the lock again."
"Wait a minute, you guys, look, there are a lot of things inside! Someone has gone in!"
"Who's in there!" someone screamed, "Get out."
Huo Buyang, who had already fallen asleep, suddenly woke up, turned over and opened the straw mat beside him, and held the ten hands inside.
Although Scone Town explicitly prohibits them from wearing weapons——
But when it comes to their own safety, how can they really be so honest and let others take advantage of them?
It's just a bit of a disguise.
Lu Meng held him down to calm him down.
It's not time to be exposed yet.
They were in a corner of the longhouse, and outsiders could not see their movements from the other side of the gate.
Lu Meng stood up and took Xiao Huo close to the wall and close to the door.
The iron gate was still clanging loudly.
Seeing that the people outside the door couldn't open the lock, they grabbed the door rail and shook it wildly, trying to shake it down.
The gate was shaking more and more, and it seemed like it was about to be shaken down.
The person who opened the door was obviously very powerful.
Huo Buyang saw clearly the hands holding on to the door rail.
It was dark green with bony scales.
‘Shaq? ’ He was surprised and doubtful.
He was fine in Scone Town, so why did he have a conflict with the Shaks?
This is still people's territory.
"Open it soon!" Someone shouted outside the door, "I shouted one, two, three, and we pushed hard together, rushed in, and pulled out the people inside!"
They knew that the earlier sound must have alarmed the people in the house.
But now I still have no scruples.
Apparently he didn't care about exposing himself - perhaps there was also an element of deliberate intimidation.
"one!"
Boom!
Everyone banged hard together.
"two!"
Bang!
The bottom of the iron gate has become dislocated.
"three……"
Just as the man outside the door shouted the beginning of the word "three", Lu Meng dodged out and grabbed the doorrail from the inside.
From the legs to the waist, the muscles all over the body are bulging.
In a flash.
Lu Meng pulled hard, and the iron gate suddenly broke free from the door frame.
The iron door that everyone had to work together to open was actually opened by him alone.
The iron door crashed to the ground with a loud bang.
At the same time, he ducked sideways.
The people outside the door were originally ready to rush, but now they couldn't hold back their strength. They rushed in through the empty door with a crash and fell to the ground one after another.
There was a lot of ouch.
Through the moonlight, I can see clearly that these are all Shaq people.
The horns on their heads were all shaved off.
The Shaq who shouted the slogan seemed to be the leader, and he also fell to the ground at this moment.
He vaguely felt that there was a figure standing on the side, still looking down at him.
He hated this feeling the most.
"Get away!"
The Shaq kicked away his companion who was on top of him and stood up.
"Who are you?" He said angrily: "Why are you here, still playing tricks on us!"
But before the Shaq man could see the figure clearly, a huge force was thrown on his face, knocking him to the ground again.
"I want to ask you."
Lu Meng loosened his grip: "This is my home, what are you doing here?"
