Chapter 710 Second Visit to Hope City, Baoyu Heavy Industry!

On June 12, the eighth year of the last calendar, there were only three days left before the summer harvest started.

He found that the basic business of Zizailiangfang was completely on track and did not need to be managed.

And the materials for the Sun Chaser Armor were not in place, so no work could be carried out.

Su Mo no longer wanted to stay and kill time. He took a day off for the first time in his life. After breakfast, he prepared to go to the city.

It has been less than half a month since he came to Tianyuan Territory.

The last time he went to the city, he just came and left in a hurry. He did not see what the background of this city that can be ranked in the top ten in the wasteland is.

This time, while going to the city to find someone to customize a harvester specifically for Spark No. 3, he just had time to visit Hope City.

"Xiaojuan, do you want to go to the city?"

"Ah?" Huang Xiaojuan, who was still washing the iron pot, was startled when she heard it suddenly.

"Brother Zong, are you going to the city?"

"Yes, I'm going to the city to do something. It just so happens that we have been in the territory for such a long time, and we haven't been to the city properly."

Su Mo promised the original body to take good care of Huang Xiaojuan, and he didn't want to fool around.

Soon.

As Huang Xiaojuan ran to the room and started to pack her things, before nine o'clock, the two of them prepared everything, locked the door and prepared to leave.

"Hey, You Zong, are you going to the city?"

Seeing the two people go out, Wang Qian, who was lying in the yard basking in the sun, stood up and asked curiously.

"Well, I have been in the territory for such a long time, and I haven't been to the city. I just happen to be free today."

"That's right, I should go to the city to have a look. I hope the city is much more magnificent than the small Sangtian Town." He smiled and talked for a few words.

Until watching the two figures slowly go away and disappear completely from sight.

Wang Qian stood up lazily and took out the walkie-talkie from his pocket.

"The target is Hope City, send four people to follow him"

"Also, if the inspection team follows, remember not to clash with them, just keep a good distance"

After saying that, Wang Qian just heard the reply from the intercom, and he lay down lazily like a deflated ball.

"Captain, the Feng team wants us to protect them closely, we are here now"

A team member holding a broom came up and hesitated a little.

"What are you protecting?" Wang Qian waved his hands helplessly and changed to a comfortable posture:

"This Su Youzong flies to and from get off work every day. You have seen him parkour in unfinished buildings before. He is very strong."

"Besides, the people from the inspection are following us now. Are you afraid of something happening?"

"But the Yuren and Chen's side..."

"Okay, don't worry about these two. As long as the inspectors are there, they won't dare to do anything even if they have a thousand or ten thousand courages."

"In addition, don't think Su Youzong is stupid. In fact, he knows everything, including the identities of all of us. It is estimated that they have been figured out long ago."

"Ah? We have been figured out? No way?"

Not bothering to answer the questions of the team members, Wang Qian paused as he watched Oreo jump out of the wall and disappear into the depths of the alley. An elusive look flashed on his face.

At first, when he just received the task from Feng Tianmin, he felt a little strange.

These people were finally planted in Hope City by the Northern Theater over the years.

The purpose was to have the ability to counterattack at a critical moment.

But this time, for the safety of Su Youzong, Feng Tianmin actually directly activated everyone, even at the risk of exposure, to protect him.

This abnormality directly shows that in Feng Tianmin's eyes, Su Youzong's importance may be higher than the entire Hope City.

What is this concept?

Wang Qian couldn't figure it out at first.

But as time went on, in the entire Tianyuan territory, the five forces except the four parties of the Academy of Sciences began to follow Su Mo.

The fact forced him to think carefully about what kind of charm Su Youzong had that was worthy of the territory's attention.

"Hello, two people, going to the XC area, right, four o'clock"

Get on the car.

In Huang Xiaojuan's distressed eyes, Su Mo generously opened the game panel and transferred the points.

Things are different now. He is no longer the poor guy who only has a few hundred points left and wants to spend every penny.

In the morning, when he asked Zhang Bowen for leave, he used his status as a shareholder of Zizailiangfang to withdraw 20,000 points of dividends in advance.

Even if he needs to use 15,000 points to pay for the harvesting machine later.

The remaining 5,000 points are enough for him not to worry about these small expenses.

Soon, after the car was full, it turned onto the road to Hope City and headed straight to the XC District.

And this time, Su Mo finally had the leisure to take a good look at this strange and familiar city.

According to the history of the development of the territory.

In the fourth year of the wasteland, under the influence of the terrible earthquake that affected the entire New World.

In the Tianyuan territory, not only did the mountains and rivers undergo earth-shaking changes, but more than a dozen earth and stone mountains appeared, and even the rivers increased from the previous two or three to more than twenty large and small rivers.

Correspondingly, the not-small Hope County was also reduced to ruins almost overnight.

In order to cope with similar disasters in the future and to better adapt to the rhythm of the wasteland.

Therefore, the Hope City that can be seen now is not an expansion from the original Hope Village and Hope Town.

Instead, the territory was re-selected and re-planned as a new city in July of the fourth year of the last calendar year.

Today, the terrain of Hope City is scattered and divided into four regions: east, west, north and south.

Within these areas, they are strictly divided according to disaster resistance levels to ensure stronger disaster resistance from the inside to the outside.

For example, the West District, which is now accessible by car, is mainly home to some basic factories and livelihood buildings, and is the outermost part of Hope City.

Ordinary citizens generally live here, which is the cheapest and most prosperous living area.

Going inward, we reach the two northeastern districts, which are the core areas of the territory.

The main scientific research institutions of the territory are stationed in the North District, mainly the Academy of Sciences, with dozens of research institutions radiating outward.

The territory's precision manufacturing industry is stationed in the East District. Led by the four major companies, hundreds of companies produce a large number of high-tech products for export.

On the periphery of these two areas, ordinary people can go in and take a look.

But similarly, going inside, you either have to have a high-price status, or you have to have a pass.

As for the last southern district, it is the famous "rich district" in Hope City.

There are basically no buildings higher than three floors in this area, and there are all kinds of small buildings and villas lined up in rows.

It is said to be part of the city, but in fact this east district is not open to ordinary people at all.

If you want to enter, you must have more than five million trading points, or you must be a core figure in the territory.

In the information Sumo obtained, there was basically no introduction to the Southern District.

"Wow, this Hope City is much more prosperous than Qingguo Territory, with so many tall buildings!"

Before entering the West District, just on the outer edge, Huang Xiaojuan couldn't help but sigh.

The suburbs of Hope City are also the suburbs of the Top 10 cities.

Far from being a small Qingguo territory, it is even comparable to Sangtian Town.

Walking on the spacious and clean streets, you can see people everywhere with colorful clothes, rosy and plump skin, and full of energy.

Many capable cars also drove in an orderly manner according to traffic rules, making everything appear to be in order.

Compared with the busy gathering place outside, coming here is like returning to the earth. Everything seems friendly and familiar.

After a while, we arrived at the drop-off location and it was noon.

With Huang Xiaojuan in hand, Sumo was not in a hurry to order a harvesting machine. Instead, he strolled around the West District and felt the city's customs.

"Sale promotion! Freshly baked bread, you can buy a whole loaf for only one yuan!"

"The latest model of portable energy vehicle, the best means of transportation to and from work. It only costs 30 transaction points and you can take it home!"

"For rent! For a large one-bedroom and one-living room in Minghua Community in West C District, the monthly rent only costs 300 transaction points. If you are quick, you can get it, but if you are slow, you can get it!"

"Brother, are you looking for a job? I have high-tech jobs here that I can introduce to you. It only requires some agency fees."

""

There are a lot of people on the street, and there are more advertisements along the way.

Listening to these familiar shouts, Huang Xiaojuan quickened her pace, but Su Mo enjoyed it.

The current Hope City has indeed fulfilled his original vision in a sense.

Prosperity, safety and stability.

On the streets, Chinese, white, black, brown-eyed, blue-eyed, all kinds of pedestrians came and went.

When it comes to inclusivity, Hope City has done a good job, and no bloody discrimination has occurred.

In the shop signs on both sides of the street, Somo also found a full cultural fusion.

Choosing to make Indian curry has improved its own products and integrated them into pancakes and fruits, forming a new type of food called "Curry Rice Buns". There are many people queuing in front of the door and sales are booming.

The handmade products combine Japanese and German precision craftsmanship concepts. They set up their small stalls next to the street, attracting many people's attention with their regularity and changing the familiarity of being called a "small workshop" before.

Even the roadside intermediary can change three or four accents and languages ​​to promote the product.

Wandering along the road, watching.

The two of them found a nice-looking restaurant and solved the lunch problem.

"Xiaojuan, you go shopping around here first, I'm going to order something for the store."

After leading Huang Xiaojuan to a large shopping mall, Sumo opened the game panel and turned a hundred points with a smile.

Small commodities are also developed in Hope City.

There are hundreds of small shops selling all kinds of goods in this street. Given Huang Xiaojuan's personality, she probably won't get tired of shopping there several times.

really.

"Ah, Brother Zong, how can you spend so much?"

"Just go and go. We want the city to be so safe, but you're still worried that I'll lose it!"

Looking at the skyrocketing balance in her account, Huang Xiaojuan was already smiling from ear to ear. She could not help but walk inside after saying a few polite words.

Until Huang Xiaojuan disappeared into the market.

Only then did Sumo retract his eyes and return to the street.

"Brother, you're new here. Do you want me to introduce you to Hope City?" Seeing Sumo looking around, a tall and thin man next to him came over immediately.

"I want to go to Baoyu Heavy Industry, how do I get there?" Sumo had already planned his destination clearly before coming.

The manufacturing industry in Tianyuan Territory is currently divided into three levels.

First, for low-level OEMs, the store codes are different, and they are basically named according to the shop owner’s preference.

This type of factory is generally based on private manual labor, rarely using machine assistance, and can produce some products with low precision requirements according to drawings.

Second, intermediate OEM, the code name of this type of store is generally named after the town in the territory.

For example, the current Baoyu Heavy Industry is a factory established in Hope City with funds from Baoyu County in the territory. It is mainly responsible for sending workers in the county to study here, and then bringing advanced technology back to the county for secondary development.

This type of factory has completely gotten rid of the restrictions of low-end manual labor and has various production instruments with high technical content.

It is enough to produce some products with low technical content.

Third, advanced OEM.

At this level, there are three in Tianyuan Territory.

They are Hope Heavy Industry, Tianyuan Heavy Industry, and Technology Precision, which is not open to the public.

The first two are funded by Hope City and Tianyuan City, and the latter is supported by the Academy of Sciences.

These three factories have top technology, a large number of precision instruments, and highly qualified operators.

But in contrast, their asking price is also high, five times higher than the county-owned factory!

"Baoyu Heavy Industry? That price is not worth it, I recommend you go there"

"No, I want to go to this one" Su Mo interrupted before he finished speaking.

Although the harvester he wants to make is simple, it can be made with the level of these low-level handmade shops.

But if a large amount of cutting is handed over to these shops, it may take until the end of time to get the finished product.

The summer harvest is imminent, but there is not so much time to wait.

"Two yuan coins, I will drive you there, do you want to go?"

Seeing that Su Mo has made up his mind, the man stopped persuading him and started to attract people.

"Okay"

Taking out two yuan coins from his pocket, Su Mo got on the other's three-wheeled vehicle.

The tall and thin man was obviously familiar with the road.

Soon, after turning one intersection after another, he passed through alleys and streets.

It only took about half an hour for him to take a shortcut and stop the car in front of a factory that covers a large area.

In the West District, this factory occupies a site of about 2,000 square meters, with barbed wire enclosing the side.

Before entering, you can hear a lot of welding, cutting, and grinding sounds coming from inside.

In front of the gate, Su Mo just got off the car and a staff member standing in front of the factory came to greet him.

"This is Baoyu Heavy Industry. This guest, do you have anything that needs us to produce for you?"

"Hey, are you from Zizailiangfang? Come in, come in!"

Seeing the logo hanging on Su Mo's chest, the staff member tilted his head slightly and told Su Mo where he came from.

The warm-up meeting the day before yesterday.

Zizailiangfang was in the limelight, but it attracted many people's attention to this powerful rising star.

As the nearby Hope City, these factories naturally received the news and knew that such a big family had appeared nearby.

Soon, relying on this identity alone, Su Mo was led to an office in the factory to sit down.

And just as he sat down, another service staff brought a small fruit plate and a glass of iced sour plum juice.

Not long after.

The office door opened, and a middle-aged man with a big belly and a round forehead pushed the door open and walked in.

"My name is Yan Jianhua, and I am the business manager of Baoyu Heavy Industry. I heard that you want to build a medium-to-large machine?"

Straight to the point, Yan Jianhua just sat down and bowed slightly to get to the point.

Su Mo looked him up and down.

As expected, just like the information collected, Baoyu Town has natural geographical advantages and abundant fishery resources. Everyone in the county has a fixed welfare meat quota.

Although Yan Jianhua looks fat, he is actually full of muscles under the fat, much stronger than ordinary people.

"Don't worry about your surname Su. I need to build this thing. How many days do you think it will take to make it?"

Taking out the prepared drawings in his arms, Su Mo gently put them on the table and pushed them forward.

Yan Jianhua took it and began to look through it carefully:

"Well, our Baoyu Heavy Industry ranks among the top three in the county-owned factories. Don't worry about the speed... It seems that what Boss Su wants to build should be a derivative of the energy stone vehicle, right? Technology is not a problem"

"For the shell, it does not require precision cutting or painting. It only takes us about two days to cut and assemble it. As for the transmission shafts inside, there are stocks in the warehouse. As long as the shell comes out, it can be assembled immediately"

"Hey, your machine actually needs a 3mm cutting head , and 258 more are needed?"

"Why, can't you make a 3mm blade? This thing shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Hearing Su Mo's question, Yan Jianhua smiled bitterly: "Boss Su, this thing is not difficult. You only need a corresponding machine tool to make it in a fool-proof way, but unfortunately, the raw material for making this thing, the first-level buffer alloy, has just been withdrawn because of a project at the Academy of Sciences."

"If you are in a hurry, we can use the second-level buffer alloy, but the cost will have to be raised to 150,000 points."

"So expensive?" Su Mo's eyelids jumped.

The buffer alloy is the soul of the entire harvester. Only this buffering property can reduce the impact of the blade on the wheat straw and preserve the fragile Spark No. 3 wheat as much as possible.

If it is replaced with other alloys, even flexible alloys, it will not have this effect.

"My small blade only needs two or three kilograms in total. Can you find some other ways to do it for me?"

"Boss Su, I'm not bluffing you. There's really nothing we can do about this." Yan Jianhua shook his head helplessly: "The Academy of Sciences transferred him. That's a military order. Anyone who dares to disobey is violating the territory and will be imprisoned."

"In this case, if you don't hurry and wait for ten days, maybe the production capacity here will be available?"

"Ten days?" Hearing this time, Su Mo frowned even deeper.

Buffer alloys are used in many places in the territory and have always been supplied in large quantities.

Before coming, Sumo thought that there might be a problem, but he didn't expect it to be in this aspect.

"Looking for Pei Shao?" While Sumo had this thought, he quietly dismissed it.

It's reasonable to ask Pei Shao for high-grade alloys.

If this kind of low-level search causes an accident and prevents the subsequent armor from being produced, it will be considered a loss outweighing the gain.

"Boss Su, what else?" Perhaps sensing Su Mo's hesitation, Yan Jianhua thought for a while and continued: "Every researcher in the Academy of Sciences, including reserve researchers, is allocated a share of research materials."

"They have transferred dozens of tons this time. If you can find an acquaintance as a researcher, it shouldn't be difficult to ask him to give you some?"

Yan Jianhua emphasized the words "looking for an acquaintance."

Obviously, this acquaintance is not an acquaintance of that other acquaintance, and it is obviously the trading point that cleared the way.

He didn't expect it would be so troublesome. As for the unknown Academy of Sciences, Sumo originally wanted to wait until the armor came out before contacting him.

But now.

"It seems like this is the only way!"

It has been reviewed and refreshed late. I will send you 800 words directly~
