This Game Is Too Realistic

Time passed day by day, from mid-August to early September in the blink of an eye, and the streets of Shuguang City unconsciously took on a hint of autumn coolness.

As the weather turns colder, many fashionable residents have replaced their cool short-sleeved shirts with cotton sweatshirts or leather jackets. On the one hand, it is convenient, and on the other hand, it is cheap.

During this period, cotton and leather are probably the commodities that have fallen the hardest in the game.

The products of Yueting Province are unimaginably rich, and the huge labor force in Golden Gallon Port processes them into high-quality and low-priced finished products.

Take belts as an example. The cheapest one only costs 100 gallons, and it is genuine leather. At most, it is just a different breed.

After deducting the profits and losses of customs duties, logistics, etc., the price is only 11,23 silver coins. For the middle-class residents of Dawn City, one hour of work is enough.

Of course, the residents of Golden Gallen Port are not at a disadvantage either. Many of them didn't even have clothes to wear before, but now the autorickshaws filling the streets are as fast as the wind.

For those residents who live a prosperous life in Dawn City, the choices of clothing tend to be more numerous.

I don’t know when the display window of the Vine Cottage has become a benchmark in the fashion industry, and has even been exported to Ideal City, and even to the families of those Valente soldiers.

Perhaps it is the wastelanders' unconscious imitation of the aesthetic bias of the shelter residents, or perhaps it is the human nature to pursue "mystery". More and more black stockings appear on the streets, and some are obviously not in line with the background of the times. clothing.

There are many eye-catching outfits among them, but there are also many products that are too outrageous and even eye-catching.

However, in a sense, this "deviant" scene is surprisingly reasonable in "Wasteland OL".

After all, the cultural concept of wasteland itself contains the characteristic of "tailoring".

That is, splicing together a variety of completely different and even highly contrasting elements, and deconstructing postmodern technological products from primitive society.

For example, iron pipe rifles made from future high-tech water pipes, crossbows made from the remains of rifles, and stockings that should be worn on the legs are put on the head, etc... Of course, there are only a few, and most of them are not doing this. Players who want to show off.

All kinds of clothing form a beautiful scenery on the busy street.

I still remember that two years ago, people here had to stuff old waste money into cotton wool and wrap it in sacks to keep warm in order to keep warm.

In just two days, the wardrobes of the survivors in Dawn City were filled with new clothes, and they were even rich enough to think about which clothes and shoes to wear when going out.

When "chips" ruled this land, this wealth that benefited the majority of people was almost unimaginable.

"...I always wonder what the problem is with the chips. Logically speaking, there is no difference between chips and silver coins, but the current life is completely unimaginable before."

Dawn City, a hut on the edge of Linghu Lake.

Looking out the window at the quiet garden and the succulents on the window sill, Dolly, who was holding her chin in her hands, suddenly remembered what happened, and she couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts for a while.

She still remembered that humble and small wish in the dark - she wanted to raise a pot of succulent because she heard it could absorb radiation.

Although a certain villain later told him that the thing was a trick to deceive children, radiation was not something that could be "sucked in", it was just a phenomenon in which energy diffused outward in the form of electromagnetic waves or particles.

If photosynthesis is interpreted as the absorption of radiation, theoretically any plant can absorb radiation.

It is precisely for this reason that this can only be regarded as a trick to deceive children, not a lie.

A truly brilliant deception does not require lying.

Sitting opposite her, Fang Chang smiled with the newspaper in his hand, his doting eyes were like Dolly's looking at the young green buds on the windowsill.

"...When you are still searching for right and wrong on tools, you have already reached a dead end."

He came back three days ago, mainly to deal with some matters related to the listing of Yue Yue Company, such as explaining the future of some funds.

Especially during the period when the Yue Yue Company expanded its business in Jingallang Port, which expenditures were paid through the company and which expenditures were paid through the port authorities must be explained one by one.

Fang Chang understands the rigor of the regulatory system. After all, overseas business is the most difficult aspect to supervise. If it is not stricter, the interests of shareholders cannot be guaranteed at all.

For example, the simplest and stupidest method is to use the money given by their shareholders to build the subway, operate it at a loss, and then use a private company to collect subway tickets to make money.

A set of operations can clearly cut off the residents of Shuguang City, and the anger can be passed on to the residents of Jingallang Harbor - "These stinky rats who live to make money but not spend money, stole money and put it in the pocket of your grandfather from Dawn City." Already? Bah, feed an unfamiliar white-eyed rat and fuck him!"

Management obviously won't let this happen.

He has already predicted the management's prediction, and he has made clear plans for the finance of Yue Yue Company and the finance of Niu Ma Group long ago.

It even includes the account books of the Golden Gallen Port authorities. It is clearly recorded where every money is spent and from which account it flows to which account.

But what surprised him was another little thing. The person working with him turned out to be Xiaoyu.

The little girl was still the same as before, always paying attention to what Chu Guang said and doing things meticulously.

The halo of the blue coat has no effect on her at all. There is only one person in her heart from beginning to end, and she will not show any mercy to others even if she is grateful.

The eyes staring at the account books were like microscopes, and some of the aggressive questions made him break out in a cold sweat.

Especially when it came to why the Yue Yue Company's investment in the Yue Clan Resistance Army did not have a specific implementation standard, such as how much money would be given to achieve certain stage goals, he couldn't help but wipe his sweat and admitted that it was indeed him. of negligence.

It was also his fault that a group of people on the forum were making noise, and because he had taken a large sum of war gifts at that time, he was indeed a little arrogant when spending money, or he was too confident.

He thought that giving money and equipment would bring results, and he specially arranged for people to find those guerrillas. Guizhiyou and those idiots expressed their opinions as soon as they talked about fighting, and abandoned their armor as soon as the war started. They were regarded as guerrillas by the NPC. Wild monster brush.

Speaking with conscience, he really didn't have any bad intentions when he spent the money. He just hoped to speed up the changes that are happening in Borneo... in a way he thought was appropriate.

"...Brother Chu has no objection to you investing in things you think are worth investing in, but you must give investors an explanation of what you want to achieve, how much money you have to spend to achieve this goal, what risks there are, and what the returns are."

"To do this, you need to make a detailed plan, not only who will be responsible for each step, but also like a task system, you must provide support to the executive in stages and stop losses in a planned way."

"Before you see this plan, I suggest you not to leave Dawn City."

After leaving these three pieces of advice, the girl with piercing eyes ended the hearing.

Fang Chang, who was sitting in the hearing room, sighed for a long time before getting up and leaving the room to go home.

It would be a shame if all NPCs in this game could be as innocent and full of justice as his lovely Dory.

There is actually nothing wrong with a simple sense of justice.

Being too smart makes you less cute...

At this moment, Dolly didn't know that her sweetheart was "praising" her in her heart, and she was still thinking about the issue of chips and the report she was writing.

If she had known about it, she might have bitten this guy when she came to her senses.

Her short, fluffy emerald green hair swayed slightly. Dolly looked at Qian Fangchang blankly and tilted her head unconsciously.

"You mean there's nothing wrong with the chips?"

Fang Chang thought for a while and said.

"It's easy to give you subjective impressions by giving examples of things you are familiar with. Let me give you an example of Cr. Do you think Cr is good or bad?"

Dolly wrinkled her delicate eyebrows slightly and said after thinking for a long time.

"I think...it's actually quite silly, right?"

The prosperity of Ideal City is obvious to all in the wasteland. To say that Cr is not true would be to tell lies with open eyes.

But she always felt that this bad guy wouldn't ask a simple question carefully, so she was somewhat hesitant when she followed his words.

Fang Chang smiled faintly and did not give any comments, just talking in a casual tone.

“The essence of Cr is a central currency anchored by the sum of all social trusts. It can liberate a natural person in society from the debt relationship of the old era. Smart contracts compiled based on quantum algorithms guarantee transactions. It is absolutely fair, and there is no need to rely on the central bank to adjust interest rates. All people participating in social activities will benefit equally from the overall prosperity of society... Doesn’t this sound wonderful? "

"Indeed... So there's nothing wrong with saying that Cr is yours, right?" Dolly nodded honestly, looking at him curiously, waiting for him to continue.

After picking up the coffee on the table and taking a sip, Fang Chang spoke slowly.

“So what if I told you that the currency of the Bugla Free State is actually modeled after Cr?”

"ah?!"

Dolly looked at him in surprise and opened her mouth unconsciously, "Is that so?! But...then why is the depreciation of cloth so exaggerated?"

She heard that people there often need a string of zeros to buy things, and the smallest denomination of banknotes is 1,000.

That thing is actually designed to imitate Cr? !

Appreciating the surprised expression on Dolly's face, Fang Chang smiled lightly and continued in a teasing tone.

"In fact, it's not just cloth... the S coin that was short-lived in the history of Qingquan City is also a poor imitation of Cr. You wrote a report on that thing, so you should know what it is."

Dolly nodded in confusion, her thoughts still not recovered from the shocking clue.

She still couldn't believe that cloth and Cr were essentially the same thing.

Fang Chang continued to talk eloquently.

"I just mentioned that Cr is the central currency anchored by the total amount of social information. In fact, the currency is the same. However, one thing is different. In Bugera, the 'total amount of social information' is the central currency." The standard of quantity is not central, and it is more extreme than traditional currency - even primitive precious metal currency, and is in the hands of a small group of people... If you can't understand this concept, you can understand it as swiping your card for food, drink and consumption. The pen used to sign the bill.”

"Are you saying that the way they used it was wrong?" Dolly keenly discovered the problem and opened her eyes in surprise.

Hearing this sentence, Fang Chang said dumbfounded.

"Look at you, I've said so much and you're still discussing right and wrong - hiss! Don't show your teeth!"

He was only halfway through his words when Dolly pounced on him with her teeth and claws spread out in shame and anger, and bit him on the arm.

She was obviously thinking seriously about this unclear question and asking for advice, but this guy always interrupted from time to time to show off his superiority in IQ.

This guy is annoying in everything else.

It's just a little bit smarter, so what's the big deal!

Not yet... not yet... Anyway, there are times when she rides on my head and steps on her feet!

However, when she saw him grinning in pain, she couldn't help but regain some strength, blushing and letting go of the arm covered with rows of neat tooth marks.

"Who wants you to tell riddles all the time...can't you answer my confusion?"

Fang Chang actually didn't feel pain at all. After all, players can't feel pain beyond the limit, and there was even a little... 嗽, it seems too much to say it.

Out of modesty and gentlemanly demeanor, he still rubbed the teeth marks on his arm and looked like he was threatened.

"Ahem, didn't I answer my question... You always say right or wrong, right or wrong. I'm correcting your thinking. How do you know that Yan Huoshi Group didn't do this on purpose?"

Dolly looked at him blankly: "...on purpose?"

"Is the Firestone Group going bankrupt, or are people in the Free State unable to survive? Their economy is no worse than ours, and they are running away while we are still walking. We laugh at them and they have to look three times to open the refrigerator door. A ten-second ad, maybe they were making fun of us because we don’t even have a refrigerator.”

In fact, without bragging, if they really fight Bugla, even if they don't pull up the Great Rift Valley, the alliance will still have to spend some effort to defeat them through conventional warfare without using strategic weapons first.

At least you have to be prepared to sacrifice Dawn City.

At least on the northern front, the performance of the Hound Special Forces is not much worse than that of the 100 Mountain Division. The equipment may be inferior, but the quality of the personnel is obviously higher than the latter.

The Alliance had some minor military frictions with Bugla on the border, but neither side sent any troops, but instead tested each other cautiously.

In his impression, the Alliance sent out androids from Camp 101, which was not yet part of the Alliance at the time, and the Bugla sent out a third-rate mercenary group actually hired by Wilantian officers.

In fact, if you look back, the friction was actually not only a competition between managers and Sigma, but also a test of each other's bottom line.

Sigma's precise awareness that the alliance's weakness lies in "weak border control and difficulty in identifying paramilitary forces disguised as refugees", and Chu Guang also gave a strong response to the Free State's pain points, that is, "strong And unrestrained individuals will create huge hidden dangers for the free state's false freedom."

One android can kill a hundred-man army. If a hundred androids or a hundred awakened ones who are more troublesome than the androids sneak into the Free State...

For Sigma, this is a much greater deterrent than "relying on regular troops to openly annihilate a hundred-man team on a frontal battlefield", and this is the real reason why both sides have always tacitly controlled the scale of the conflict. reason.

The NPCs in this game are just like real people. The more you think about it, the more so. He is not the first to think so.

After a pause, Fang Chang looked at Dolly who seemed to understand, and continued to speak concisely and concisely.

"...So you have reached a dead end when discussing whether they are right or wrong, good or bad. A gun is faster than a knife, and there are faster guns in guns, but peeling an apple is not necessarily faster than an apple. A fruit knife is useful.”

"As for your original question, I can tell you that a chip has nothing to do with good or bad, or right or wrong. It is just a tool. People who hold it use it according to their own understanding of it...including issuing chips." People use chips to control people, that’s all.”

"As for why the chips are not the same as the silver coins, it's because the guy who raised the chips wanted this effect from the beginning, and he did what he wanted to do. As for whether he got it off in the end or didn't get it off, that's another matter later. Talk."

The same is true for Bugra. All the tools, including the layout and board of directors structure, are modeled after the design of Ideal City. Like the vast majority of wastelanders in the wasteland, they are extremely envious of the prosperity of Ideal City.

As for other things about the ideal city, they thought they knew it, but in fact they knew nothing about it.

And this has led to the cyberpunk society of Bughra - ultra-high technological level and extremely low living standards appear in one settlement at the same time, and everyone is like a hamster running on a tightrope.

This is similar to the Science and Technology Committee, but completely different.

It is said that the Social Research Section of the Alliance's Scientific Research Group has initiated a project analysis of these phenomena, including the Alliance's own current sociological phenomena.

However, this is a long-term undertaking that requires continuous progress, and it is unrealistic to expect to draw conclusions about the current situation at the moment.

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but tease Dolly, who was ignorant, making the latter blush with anger and open his teeth.

"...It's like a hawker who sells you meat. He doesn't do it for your health, nor does he care about radiation. He just wants to earn silver coins in your pocket. The difference is that some people know it, and some people don't... Hiss! Don't bite!"

Seeing Dolly jumping on the table like a cat, Fang Chang quickly moved the unfinished coffee away for fear of burning her.

However, due to the loss of one hand, he was almost defeated when faced with Dolly's attack.

After the fighting in the room finally ended, Dolly, blushing and panting, finally noticed the crumpled newspaper on the table.

"This is the Survivor's Daily?" A look of surprise appeared on her face, especially when she discovered that the layout of the newspaper was different from that of Dawn City's Survivor's Daily.

Fang Chang spread the newspaper and said with a faint smile.

"The Golden Gallen Harbor Branch...there are more and more survivors standing on the same front as us, and occasionally some eye-catching articles will appear on it."

He has been away from Golden Gallen Port for a long time and needs to use the local newspaper to understand the situation there.

He didn't expect that in just a few months, the harbor filled with slaves and without any hope could emit such an earth-shattering roar, which really surprised him.

Maybe if you give them a little more time, they might be able to catch the ship leading to the world.

In fact, in addition to giving money, he also helped them cultivate some talents.

For example, Yodu, who serves as secretary in the governor's office, is a moderate reformist with good abilities.

Including working as a police officer in the Civil Defense Office, he is courageous and executive, and has the ability to accept things. Although his words and demeanor are a bit rough, it is not a serious problem. And objectively speaking, he deserves a share of the credit for the reconstruction of Jingallan Port.

After all, there is nothing more intimidating to the old nobles than a Yue Clan member holding a gun, especially since this guy is ruthless to others as well as to his own people.

In order to survive, those old nobles worked even harder than the other classes to please the alliance.

After all, they are also afraid that if they chirp too much, the Alliance will turn a blind eye. Although the people in the Alliance are reasonable and disciplined, the Alliance obviously doesn't care about raising dogs.

This guy is a talented person, it would be better if he could be put in the office to polish his character.

No matter what nonsense he wants to be, he shouldn't express his inner thoughts on his face.

This is a fundamental skill in politics.

If he doesn't practice well, that guy is destined to be the leader of a militia group in his life.

"Red Earth... This article is well written. It doesn't look like it was written by someone who just learned to write." After reading the article in the newspaper from beginning to end, Dolly's face became more and more surprised, even pleasantly surprised.

Perhaps Dawn City's "Survivor Daily" can also quote this article.

No--

This does not seem to be an article, but more like the preface to a long collection of essays.

As one of the earliest members of the "Daily Survivor" and the editor who discovered the literary treasure "Bole the Awakened", she was keenly aware that the anthology titled "Red Earth" had potential equal to that of the former.

The survivors of suffering in this wasteland are not only Boulder City, Bol, but also White Elephant City!

She heard the call that hit her soul, and she believed that others could hear it too, especially the members of the Friendship Club who had experienced that change!

They have ended the wasteland around them, but the wider wasteland has not yet ended.

She believes that the partners who join forces at that time will not only be satisfied with the daily ribs and beer, but will also be willing to help those who are also suffering!

At least some people do!

For example, Sberg and the others.

"I want to write a column for him!" Dolly looked at Fang Chang with sparkling eyes and said, "More people should hear the voices there, instead of just enjoying the cheap goods provided to us by the local survivors. ... No, to be precise, this is for ourselves. If we let them continue to be exploited by slaves, our interests will eventually be damaged, right? At that time, the silver coins will become another kind of bargaining chip, just like you just said. Those ones."

As she said this, Dolly stared at Fang Chang with bright eyes. The clever little devil looked nothing like the cute one an hour ago.

I can only say that he is worthy of being a guy from Boulder City. The bridge of his nose is all screwed up. If you say this to anyone other than the residents of Vault 404 in Dawn City, you will be greeted by the whole family.

Fang Chang smiled faintly, but did not deny her statement.

"Congratulations, you have entered the next version in advance when most people are still staying in the previous version. I mean... the problem you said does exist, and we plan to solve it in the next stage. To do something.”

"As long ago as the Industrial Era before the Era of Prosperity, it has been proven that unilateral blood-sucking is unsustainable, and unequal relationships will eventually collapse after reaching a critical point... Whether it is a relationship between people, or a relationship between different people, "

"In the end, we have only two choices, either to set up a protected area similar to Singularity City, isolate Borneo Province from the upper class society and watch and wait for the progress of the world. Or push them to board the world ship. , and we are participating in the huge agenda of discussing how to end the Wasteland Era."

His plan for Golden Gallen Port is a "secondary industrial base", and Borneo Province is a human resources and mineral supply base, but if it can become a huge consumer market, he will also be happy to see it.

Not only because it would be more harmful to Baiyue Company, but also because he didn't want to stand against other settlements and survivors in the alliance.

The war between the Central Government and Haiyada Province actually covered up some problems.

Dawn City and Boulder City can be full just by ordering military supplies and logistics distribution. The entire sticky community is paying for the settlements in Hehe River Province, and the residents of Hehe River Province can use sticky money to consume what they need. You can buy it with money from other areas.

When the war is over, or the alliance's expansion slows down, or a crisis breaks out, some of the original shelved issues will inevitably surface.

The reason why managers chose to approve Baiyue Company's listing plan at this time must have been based on this consideration.

As a player in the T0 echelon of the server, you must let your camp BOSS have cards to play.

With this thought in his mind, Fang Chang suddenly said with a smile.

"It seems that you are not the only one who thinks this article is okay to write. I actually think so too... What do you think about including it in the Golden Gallen Port textbook?"

"This is a good idea!" Dolly's eyes sparkled, and she continued in her sweet voice like a lark, "Compared with the teaching materials we give them, it is their own stories that can arouse the voices of their compatriots more. They need their own symbols and totems!”

"Haha, that's it!"

In just a few seconds, Fang Chang decided the matter.

That night, after completing the report requested by Xiaoyu, he took the time to send a telegram to the Governor's Office of Golden Gallen Port, instructing him to incorporate "Red Earth" into the Golden Gallen textbook.

Now it is no longer the time when the Burning Legion just landed in Golden Gallen Port. It takes two or three days to send a battle report to Dawn City, and all the battles have been fought.

Information infrastructure is also part of the infrastructure. The alliance's communication base stations and roads and railways have always been developed simultaneously. By setting up multiple signal transfer stations, Shuguang City's telegrams can be sent directly to Jingallan Port, bypassing interference.

When the submarine cable is laid, it will be no problem to make calls or even play video.

Not long after, he quickly received a reply telegram from the Governor-General's secretary.

However, what surprised Fang Chang was that the content of the video was not only about localization textbooks, but also mentioned Lassi.

[… The Golden Gallen Harbor Education Authors Association is organizing public school teachers to compile teaching materials that meet the needs of local survivors. They have noticed the articles that appeared in the Survivor Daily. Not only "Red Earth", many articles have won awards. With the recommendation of local teachers and external teachers, I will continue to keep an eye on the progress of relevant work for you. 】

[Also, there is one more thing. Affected by the poor performance of the expeditionary force in Shifeng Mountain, Jin Galanqing became very excited after learning that the empire planned to send more cannon fodder to the front line, and they were despised by the empire. Recently, representatives from all walks of life have submitted petitions, hoping that the Golden Gallen authorities will refuse to return the Gray Wolf Army prisoners of war, and at least let those who voluntarily stay stay... They are worried that those young people who are released by us will be taken advantage of by the empire. Consumables are sent to the front line in exchange for compensation. 】

【The public sentiment is arousing not only from all walks of life, but also from within the government. Ren Lasi, director of the Civil Defense Office, submitted his resignation letter on the morning of the same day, along with nearly thirty middle-level and grassroots officers of the militia. I made a request to retain them, but they made a decision. I have no right to handle the matter. I can only report the matter to you and let you decide. 】

Are you still here after resigning? !

I didn't expect that guy to be so temperamental. Fang Chang was also surprised for a while and was stunned for a long time.

The resignation letter was attached at the bottom of the telegram. He did not stop and continued reading along the telegram.

Although the copy posted here is not the original, he believes that guy Yodu will not fool him on such a big matter.

【

Respected Mr. Fangchang, I am grateful for your promotion. Without you, there would be no me today. At the same time, please also say hello to Mr. Administrator on my behalf. I know that he has always been concerned about the affairs in the wasteland and also watched us.

However, I am just a rough man. Although I know a few words, I can't say anything nice. However, I believe you know that I am loyal and loyal, and I will obey every order you ask.

I have no choice but to submit this resignation, all because those guys from the north are really bastards!

I hate him for not fighting and wasting the money and food you sponsored, and I hate him for being a coward and making everyone in Borneo laugh at him, and I hate him even more for wasting the lives of my compatriots!

When the time comes, all the tribes in Xilan will be completely disappointed, and the survivors in Borneo Province will no longer be able to make a difference. It's not too late now, and the resistance army is still full of energy. I must go out!

If you think I am reckless, just give me an order and I will give you my life and I will never make it difficult for you. If you are willing to let me go north to save the nation, I will never neglect you in my affairs in the future! I, Lacy, will always be your subordinate. If you ask me to go east, I will never go west!

】

After reading the resignation letter twice, Fang Chang couldn't say a word. It took him a long time to say "good guy".

Did he write this thing himself? !
