Chapter 154 Amazing energy block reserves

This is new sale information.

Usually whenever they go out, they will cancel their records on the bulletin board, because no one will let other cities guess where they went to train or where they went for activities.

After the information on the bulletin board is erased, it is impossible to determine whether a city has left the radar search range, because there are too many cities that appear on the radar screen near the trading venue.

Unless they have some agenda, most cities will not specifically target a certain city on their radar.

This achieves the purpose of hiding one's whereabouts.

Not long after the sale information was released, there was a sensation in the entire trading place.

"Cheetah 860, why is it the rifle model of Cheetah City? Has Cheetah City been taken over?"

"No way, is it really Cheetah City's firearms technology? I didn't expect Cheetah City to be killed by other cities so quickly."

"City Lord, big news, Mohe has released a new rifle model, which is a product of Cheetah City."

"We have to find a way to get their selling price."

All cities are paying attention to this situation, not only the question of whether they want to buy it, but also the one who is here to sell the Eagle 1200 rifle.

Of course, this will create competition, but there are only two products, so overall the competition is not big. It is just that some of the market will be taken away by others. What is important is the sales price of Shenlong City.

If the selling price is too low, it is a price war and a deliberate attempt to squeeze them out of the market.

No one can tolerate this.

Therefore, their city lords really wanted to get the price, but of course they couldn't do it themselves. Instead, they went to cities with better connections to buy information.

As for other cities, they are more concerned about the situation in Cheetah City.

The leakage of weapons from Cheetah City naturally means that it has been killed by other cities. This is very important information.

After all, Cheetah City is very dangerous to the cities in Mohe Trading Ground.

There are also many cities that covet Cheetah City's technology and resources. It's not just a matter of developing weapons, nor is it just a matter of other material trophies.

The most important thing is that we will get engineering and technical personnel from Cheetah City.

These people are a great asset.

Not all cities are willing to engage in arms trade, but all cities like engineers and technical talents.

Firearms manufacturing engineers may not necessarily develop weapons. Most of them are also good at other mechanical or electronic equipment.

"This is King Qi City, calling Shenlong City. We would like to ask about the price of your weapons first?" Six minutes after the news was released, the first city to ask for the price appeared.

Xiang Yang was surprised by this speed.

"Shenlong City has heard the call from King Qi City. We will establish a one-to-one independent link. We hope that you can respond."

Xiang Yang established an independent communication line so that outsiders could not hear them.

This requires the consent of both parties.

"Received, Qi Wangcheng has confirmed it." Qi Wangcheng quickly agreed, and the two sides established a communication link.

"Dragon City confirmed."

[Establishment of independent radio communication line with Qi Wangcheng]

"Let me first introduce the specific parameters of the Cheetah 860." First, he explained the more detailed specifications and parameters of the rifle, and then Xiang Yang started to quote.

"We have set up a preferential package for new customers. One energy block provides sixteen bullets, and two magazines are given for free. If you purchase eighty rounds, you will receive a rifle. For purchases over fifty energy blocks, there is a 10% discount."

The price is similar to that of the Eagle rifle, which is a reference to theirs, but it has more bullets.

Because the ammunition caliber is smaller, it will definitely be less popular than the Eagle rifle. Sixteen rounds is the capacity of two magazines, which is actually the same as the Eagle's ten rounds and two magazines.

As a new entrant in a town-level city, Xiang Yang certainly has no intention of causing trouble, not to mention messing up the market price, which is not a wise thing to do.

The Wasteland is a cruel world. Even if you engage in a price war and eliminate your competitors, they will not be able to cause trouble to you if they are not strong enough.

But later, it will be difficult to raise prices again, which will cause dissatisfaction among customers, and may lead to people joining forces to kill you and divide your inventory.

In the end it was totally worth the loss.

The characteristics of the Cheetah 860 are different from those of the Eagle 1200, which provides differentiated needs, and Xiang Yang naturally wants to take advantage of them.

"Although the aiming distance is only 650 meters, it is not weak in power. The whole gun is short, light in weight, easy to carry, and has a wide range of applications. It is not due to bad luck. You can definitely shoot a prey within 100 meters."

Xiang Yang said.

If you can't shoot one prey at a time, you have to shoot twice. The bullet consumption will be doubled and the cost will be high.

This is also the reason why the Cheetah 860 has sixteen bullets per energy block, while the Eagle 1200 has ten bullets per energy block, and the prices are about the same from customers.

But if the marksmanship is accurate and the prey is not too far away, the Cheetah 860's large number of bullets will have a more obvious advantage, especially for hitting small and medium-sized wild creatures.

"Okay, let's buy a package of 800 rounds of ammunition." Qi Wangcheng said happily.

If the amount reaches fifty energy blocks, you can get a 10% discount. You only use forty-five energy blocks, which is a lot more cost-effective. This is usually the first time you buy it.

"In addition, there is one thing we need to confirm with you." Over there in King Qi City was obviously their city lord, "whether Cheetah City was really destroyed."

"We have also specifically consulted on this issue. Cheetah City has been taken care of, and the owner of Cheetah City is also dead. We have not seen it with our own eyes, but the person who gave us the information is very sure, and we also believe that Cheetah City is finished."

Xiang Yang said with the answer he had prepared long ago.

"I understand, thank you. Let's go to the Mohe River to trade. We are a maritime city." Qi Wangcheng replied.

"Okay." Xiang Yang finally understood why the other party cared so much about this issue.

Because of its concealment device, Cheetah City can deal with those maritime cities that occasionally come ashore and operate along the Mohe River almost accurately every time.

The speed of the sea city on land is extremely slow, that is, a turtle speed. The speed of the motorcycle city is very fast. You can often get close to the other party before they enter the water.

Much easier than attacking land cities.

Therefore, when Cheetah City was still there, the maritime city not only did not dare to go ashore, but also did not dare to go to the narrow upper reaches of the river. The entire Mohe River was almost just used as a passage to the trading place.

Without Cheetah City, maritime cities like Qiwang City can still go ashore to carry out some activities. They must obtain confirmation information.

The first transaction was completed quickly, with just ten rifles, eighty rounds of ammunition, and ten magazines. Even if it was not the trophies obtained, the material cost was negligible, and the time cost was only four or five days.

In other words, a factory can obtain forty-five energy blocks in just a few days and with very few materials.

This deal is indeed a huge profit.

Next, there was an endless stream of people who came to inquire and buy. For two consecutive days, Xiang Yang was talking about business, but the real buyers were only from about forty cities.

They plan to use the Cheetah 860 to deal with hares, jackals and other small creatures weighing less than 100 kilograms, and use the Eagle 1200 to deal with large beasts weighing more than 100 kilograms.

This is more efficient and economical.

Most cities come to inquire about prices and confirm whether Cheetah City is really taken care of.

Even if it is purchased by just a few cities, it is a transaction of nearly 2,000 energy blocks.

As for the city that sells the Eagle 1200, it doesn't matter after getting the price information of the Cheetah 860. Their business will be affected a little, but it will still be within the affordable range.

Because first of all, their market is still huge, secondly, their profits are high, and finally, even if they kill Shenlong City, there will be a second city to fill in for agents, so they have no way to control the market.

So far, although no one can be sure who killed Cheetah City, and no one suspects Shenlong City, they can be sure that it was probably Mohe or several cities in nearby large trading venues.

Several large-scale trading venues at the nearby county level are far away from each other, and it is unlikely that town-level cities often travel such long distances back and forth.

In other words, there is a high probability that the manufacturer of the Cheetah 860 is hidden in the Mohe Trading Ground.

If they want to maliciously kick the Cheetah 860 out of the firearms trading market, then the cities that hide behind the weapons and produce them probably won't sit idly by.

Destroying someone's wealth is like killing their parents. They themselves will be in danger.

There is no need to risk a dispute.

Having obtained so many energy blocks at once, Shenlong City's energy block reserves have now reached an astonishing number of more than 1,200.

For a town-level city, this is a quite terrifying number.

Xiang Yang calculated that it had been more than thirteen months since the city was planted, and the safe operation time limit for cities upgraded to county level was only fifteen months.

There is still more than a month.

Most of the resources used for upgrading are already available, basically obtained from Cheetah City.

Now that there are so many energy blocks, Xiang Yang can simply use the energy blocks to purchase the remaining resources directly, which is fast and has low risk.

But for some steel and copper, Xiang Yang decided to go mining.

The blast furnace still needs to be used. Even if you are so rich, buying it is the right way to go. But if you keep buying metal, the utilization rate of the blast furnace will be very low. Xiang Yang is also afraid of affecting the utilization of the facility.

Shenlong City continues to rest and recuperate at the Mohe Trading Ground, and everything is ready to go out again.

Head southwest along the Mohe River to the Xishan Trading Ground.

Because there is the largest mine in the nearby area, the Xishan Mine, which is rich in copper, iron, and a small amount of rare metals.

There are various large and small trading centers within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers, including Crocodile Valley, where everyone who wants to get high-end ore goes.

Even some trading venues further away will go.

The Xishan Trading Ground is only a temporary trading ground. Because of the mineral veins, many cities came to gather them.

However, it is located in a large desert and is relatively desolate.

Except for mining, there are not that many other resources for survival. There are few animals, not many trees, and only a few rivers, all small rivers with not many fish, which can only provide basic water.

The cities that come here are mainly land cities, with a few aerial cities and sea cities that are inaccessible. Mining often causes conflicts, so it is impossible to become a fixed trading place.

Once a place causes too many conflicts, it is usually difficult to become a fixed trading place.

Half a month later, from the lookout, I saw a series of low mountains ahead. The highest mountain was only about 500 meters, and many places were covered with rubble.

There are also many holes that have been completely dug out, as well as giant canyons and corridors left by mining.

This is already the outskirts of the Xishan Mine.

Shenlong City turned to the south and passed through the outside of the mountain range, because they had to go to the Xishan Trading Ground to rest first. In the south of the mountain range, there was still nearly a hundred kilometers away from the mine.

A few minutes later.

Boom, the roar of cannons appeared in front, and cannons continued to blast out.

"Lookout No. 3 reported that in the mountain col on the right, a city was found fighting against a bipedal energy behemoth." Qian Youliang's report came, "A county-level city is being attacked by thirteen village-level energy beasts."

Behemoths siege.”

"Let's continue moving south to avoid the fighting over there."

The radar had just discovered that side. Because there were mountains blocking the signal, Xiang Yang controlled Shenlong City to turn south again to avoid the battle there.

This kind of battle is too common here in the mine.

You cannot participate casually. There is a high probability that other cities will misunderstand you and think you are here to compete with them for position.

As long as there are mineral veins, there will be energy monsters, and can it become a place that can be adopted by the city as a common mining place.

Usually one of the most basic requirements is that there are no large underground gregarious energy behemoths, because radar cannot detect underground. If many of them suddenly appear, even those with low levels will have difficulty escaping.

This is also the reason why it is impossible for the city cemetery to become a mine. The burrower is exactly the kind of large-scale social underground energy behemoth.

But if it is an underground energy behemoth living alone or in extremely small groups, it will be more beneficial to a mining farm.

Because not only can the soil be turned over for free and the consumption of blasting is reduced, but it can also be easier to identify where there are better mineral deposits.

Of course, the size of the mineral vein in the city cemetery is quite acceptable for a world like Terra, but for a wasteland world, it is just a very small mineral vein.

The second requirement is that large groups of energy behemoths similar to beast tides will not often appear. No city of any size can survive in a group of energy behemoths of the size of beast tides. Even a small beast tide will have a difficult time.

.

That is to say, there are requirements for the number, level, and type of energy behemoths that appear.

It's all related to energy behemoths on the whole, because places with mines are usually places that energy behemoths like. Mineral veins without energy behemoths are rare.

In the wasteland world, human cities not only need to compete with humans themselves, but also need to compete with energy giants for mineral veins.

Compared with humans, energy behemoths will be in greater trouble, so there are not many places where mining can actually be done.

Different areas of a mine have different amounts of mineral deposits. Exactly where to dig usually requires constant searching.

If Shenlong City is too close, it will not only attract those energy behemoths and have to participate in the battle, but it is also likely to be misunderstood by the other city, which is really not worthwhile.

It's no good to just stop and watch nearby, as the other party will 100% think you have malicious intentions and want to take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, at this time, you need to leave decisively and directly.
