Chapter 1047: Hedging Trade, History Turns a New Page

Chapter 1047 Hedging trade, history has turned a new page!

The road to the Pumpkin Bunker is not as easy as imagined.

Although it is only about 70 kilometers away from the southern suburbs, in order to avoid the battle that may break out at any time in the city, the two troop transporters equipped with the latest "Electric Wolf" low-power energy machine can only go around in an arc.

Along the way, the suburbs of Qinggang City are full of building ruins where the Thousand Illusion Mist descended.

Occasionally, some radiation beasts escaped from the city, hiding in the ruins and looking out, trying to find passing creatures.

However, facing two vehicles that are obviously full of civilized atmosphere, the radiation beasts did not dare to jump out and attack.

Even though they have been hungry for many days and urgently need some food to replenish their empty stomachs.

"Fortunately, we don't have to stop halfway to change batteries, otherwise it would be really dangerous in this situation."

The scene of being besieged by radiation beasts in the southern suburbs last time is still vivid, and these guys are not afraid even when facing whistling bullets.

Sitting in the back of the troop carrier, the ‘old Taoist’ looked out through the small window for a while, and said with lingering fear.

The troop carrier with the new energy machine is basically the same as the Bailideng.

Except for the two explosion-proof windows added to the box for shooting, the two vehicles are almost the same.

Of course, there is no way.

To build a complete assembly production line, the industrial mother bed has been deployed for about two months.

To expand new types of production lines beyond this, the amount of work is so huge that it is daunting.

Even if it is just to change two windows on the cabinet, eight workers worked overtime for two nights to finish it.

"The one-way distance is 250 kilometers. If the electric wolf energy machine had not been developed, we would not be able to transport goods even if the trade route was expanded." Closing the lid of the thermos cup in his hand, the Fire King put it back in his arms, his eyes full of longing.

Since the territory and the village began to allow residents to carry guns through the application of gunner certificates, the sales of the Firepower Weapon Store have been on the road to Waterloo, and are currently less than one-tenth of the peak period.

Cheap guns have flooded into the market in waves, constantly reconstructing the original force structure.

Although the consumption price of bullets is much higher than that of crossbows, the power of the two is simply not comparable.

Those who don't go to the battlefield would rather raise their belts to save money to buy a pistol, and would never buy a powerful crossbow for self-defense.

In other words, the Firepower Weapon Store is close to bankruptcy!

If it weren't for the disaster of metal aging, the last sales would have fallen in a very short time.

And now, the situation seems to be getting better again.

Recently, there are obviously more customers who come to the store to choose crossbows than in the past few days. Even if most of them just come to ask about the price and see the performance of the latest generation of wolf crossbows, it is enough to make people feel excited.

In addition to this new market that is likely to be opened up, the Firepower Weapon Store will become bigger and stronger in the near future!

"I heard there are 7,000 people there, which is quite a lot, and it is a huge market.

"I just don't know if they have enough garbage."

The wretched 'You Gary has no one' in the chat channel, but in reality he is a handsome young man.

Relying on the recycling machine brought back from the Pingtan Shelter before, since it was repaired and handed over by Su Mo using the survival point.

The 'Sweep' recycling plant has received many orders recently and provided a lot of rare elements.

However, the emergence of the ban makes it difficult for scavengers to bring back valuable items. In order to open up a new recycling business route, this pumpkin bunker is also one of his goals.

Use cheap goods to exchange for the garbage in their hands, and then use the recycling machine to decompose the useful elements in it.

Under frequent transactions, the recycling plant can easily make a lot of money.

"Haha, you will get a satisfactory result. The structure there is not like a normal shelter. You will know it when you go there. "

Looking at the old electrician and Want to Eat Sugar sitting in the corner in silence, the nuclear rifle coughed and changed the subject.

The players of the handcraft enthusiast route and the mechanical apprentice route have been miserable in the recent basic version.

Especially the former, the industrial production lines that have been gradually built have no place for them to play.

And the villagers don't have extra money to buy some small gadgets to appreciate.

Over time, the level of the players of the handcraft enthusiast route is almost all at the bottom.

As the hope of the whole village, Want to Eat Sugar not only shoulders the mission of exploring the market, but also shoulders the hope of the rise of the players of the handcraft route.

And the old electrician and the mechanical apprentice are also miserable.

Fortunately, there are very few players who choose this route, and there are only more than 50 people in the entire territory.

"I hope they can have a bunch of broken machines for us to repair, I would rather work for nothing."

The forty-year-old middle-aged uncle shrugged, with a little embarrassment on his face.

"Don't worry, your mechanical apprentice route is a late-stage route. When the territory can provide a development platform, the upgrade will definitely be very fast. "

After reviewing the data in his hand, the dream hunter raised his head and comforted him.

"Based on the intelligence we already have, we can roughly judge that the other party is a gathering place that is mainly based on agriculture, supplemented by small-scale light industrial manufacturing and providing low-cost services."

"Most of the residents inside are slaves bought by the bunker owner. They don't need any expenses and don't have much pressure to survive. Of course, I don't know whether the owner there is kind and whether he will give out the surplus production as a reward."

"If he chooses to take back all the finances, it is very likely that every resident will not have even a penny in his hand."

"No money, no money, isn't it just finished?"

The Fire King was stunned for a moment.

He still expected the residents there to be very rich, to be able to have a wolf crossbow in their hands, a wolf crossbow on their backs, and another wolf crossbow in the box to be armed to the teeth.

But if they have no consumption power as the dream hunter said, then what's the point of selling hammers?

The other people's faces also changed with different expressions.

But soon, before the second person asked a question, the dream hunter continued to explain.

"You have misunderstood. In fact, having no money is the best news for us."

The so-called "money" is actually a synonym for surplus production.

It is impossible for the Pumpkin Bunker to circulate Tianyuan copper coins or iron coins, because of the size limit, it is unlikely to have its own currency.

"Think about it, if the currency they have is the same foundation voucher as the Red Spider Caravan, it is almost a piece of waste paper that cannot be redeemed in the short term."

"Even if they have a currency that can be redeemed, once the internal economic system collapses, the currency we take back will quickly depreciate."

"But on the contrary, they have no money, but a lot of valuable materials, that is the best news for us."

Barter.

Return to the most primitive time.

Both parties will not worry about the depreciation of the materials they bought back, nor will they worry about the currency being in circulation.

"Will they have materials in their hands as slaves?"

Yoyo Fire King swallowed his saliva, still a little worried.

"That's not necessarily true."

"If their master is not stupid, he would definitely give some rewards in the past to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm for work."

"In addition, the current situation is different. The Pumpkin Bunker has descended from a safe place to a wasteland full of dangers. If the slaves inside make trouble again, the good days of the bunker owner will be completely over."

Getting information through intelligence analysis is the specialty of the dream hunter.

Hearing him say this, everyone present finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the previous slight contempt disappeared.

And the new members of the scavenger team, ‘The Butcher’ and ‘Two Two Make Four’, also showed a little surprise, and had a better understanding of the strength of their new teammates.

“If you are willing to believe me, don’t hide the information of our territory when you go there.”

“They have no ability to resist, let alone invade.”

“On the other hand, they need these.”

“I know this, it is to make them believe that it is good to form an alliance with us, so that they can lower the price in the transaction.”

The old Taoist finally understood it for once, and hurriedly said.

“Yes! We know what they need most, and we can provide what they need most, but they don’t know what we need.”

“This is a huge advantage in trade.”

The dream hunter nodded slightly.

"The previous transactions with Pingtan Shelter and Jucheng Shelter were just small-scale and not presentable."

"Their internal productivity is too strong, even stronger than our territory, and most of the goods have no market."

"But this bunker is different. If they are just slaves, they definitely need a lot of things."

"If we do a good job of hedging trade, we can make ten or a hundred times the profit."

There are many explanations for the so-called "hedge trade".

The most common on Earth is to buy physical goods and sell futures to preserve the value of the materials in hand.

But in physical transactions, hedging also means that the risk is greatly reduced.

For example, for small handmade products that the bunker slaves don't need urgently, they give a very low price, even to the point of losing money after calculating the cost and labor, to provide a channel for handmade enthusiasts to brush experience.

But for the weapons they urgently need, they give a price that is so expensive that it makes your heart bleed.

Both can be sold separately or bundled with cheap goods.

With the profit hedging, money was earned, experience was gained, and every aspect could develop properly.

"With just that little information, you can analyze these things?"

The people sitting in the carriage looked at each other in bewilderment.

If only it were as simple as the dream hunter said.

If the hedging trade could be successfully completed, it would simply be a new page in the history of the territory!

The Dilonghua Park, nearly 100 kilometers away.

The excited vagrant army evenly sprinkled the gasoline brought from the supply point on the ground, humming rude shouts and ballads, and brought a lot of fire starters.

There were dry branches, bundles of weeds, torn garbage bags, and

red underwear that someone had taken off.

"Hey, I just found a pair without patches. This pair of underwear that has been with me for three years should also end its mission!"

Shaking the big shorts found in the corner of the ruins, a vagrant grinned.

To be honest, since joining the Sunny Harbor Shelter, their daily necessities have indeed become much richer than before.

But compared to spending merit points to buy from the logistics store, it is still better to pick up things from the garbage dump.

The wanderers don't care whether it's clean or not. In their eyes, an object can only be divided into three states.

Useful, usable, and unusable.

"Stop yelling. We'll light a fire and fire a few shots later, and we'll retreat immediately!"

After confirming that the fire could affect the entire park, Xia Zuo showed a satisfied expression on his face and quickly returned to the exit of the park.

To be honest, even with the map he got before leaving, he couldn't find the entrance and exit of this ground cage flower shelter just now.

But who cares? The mission only said to cause them some trouble, and never said to fight head-on.

Puff.

A match passed through the fingertips, gently rotated in the air, and fell on a pile of weeds.

At first, it was just a faint cloud of smoke rising from the weeds, but it took only a few seconds to become a small flame visible to the naked eye.

Under the breeze of noon, the flame grew in the wind and soon came into contact with the gasoline poured down.

Sizzle.

A slightly harsh explosion sounded, and the shaky fire stabilized instantly and spread around at an exaggerated speed.

"Roar, burn the mole man's home and see if they can come out!"

"Burn them to death and let them taste the taste of losing their homes!"

"Such a beautiful scene, it's a pity that I can only record it with my one eye. It would be great if I had a camera."

"No, their guards have discovered us, open fire quickly!"

"There, on that bell tower, damn it!"

When the drum-like explosion and gunshots sounded together, the wanderers realized that they had burned the wrong place.

The other party's shelter was not under this park, but in another smaller park next to it.

But despite this, looking at the furious looks of the shelter guards, their goal was achieved!

The two sides fired at each other behind the bunker, and the crackling bullets hit the concrete wall, bringing up a touch of flying ash.

"One-eyed Death God, please let my bullet hit!"

"God of Antelope, your believers are definitely not intentionally committing evil deeds. The other party attacked first!"

"Great Rhinoceros God bless you"

The distance between the two sides is at least 500 meters. It is a luxury to pray for a hit and cause casualties.

But in the mouths of the wanderers, there are various prayers one after another, in a mess.

They don't have faith, almost everyone is praying.

But if you say they do, everyone prays to different gods, and they can open several mahjong tables together.

The battle lasted about three minutes, and I don't know which lucky guy was hit by a bullet.

Seeing that an unlucky guard on the tower fell straight down, Xia Zuo waved his hand, and the wanderer army stopped while they were ahead, and ran away to the distance.

The raging fire rose with the wind, and half of the southern suburbs seemed to be on fire.

Many wanderers who were still on their way to the mission site raised their heads curiously, looking at the fiery red sky in surprise.

Even the commander who had not yet returned to the new city raised his head in surprise, and couldn't help but admire.

"I thought only our legion could launch such an offensive, but I didn't expect that wanderers could do it too. Which captain led this team to be so brave!"

"Go, find his location, and give this team a first place!"
