Chapter 973 Food Trade, an Unexpected Surprise!

"It went smoothly. With the protection of the foundation, this trip was of course very smooth."

After opening the armor package, Su Mo walked out of it, stepped onto the stairs, and came to Sean's side.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

It's been less than a week, and Sean, who was originally thin and tall, has obviously gained weight, and his face has changed from slightly pale to rosy.

In addition, the moment he got up from the recliner, Su Mo could clearly see that Sean's chin had more flesh.

Good guy.

Can he eat so much?

I heard Feng Long report back last night that these people are no longer satisfied with three meals a day, and they forced to use their private money to increase the meals to four meals. Some people with a big appetite would even secretly take out the food in the middle of the night to heat it up for an extra meal.

From this point of view, Sean, the boss of the caravan, is also one of them.

"Friend, it seems that you have indeed made a wise choice. Now maybe we can talk about cooperation?"

Sean's smile became more and more intense.

Having stayed here for these days, how could he not see the potential of this gathering place.

These delicacies alone, if placed on Blue Star, would be enough to make this place a treasure trove of endless supply.

Of course, the smart Sean would not directly state his purpose.

As a businessman, he knew how to create demand for the other party, so as to sell things that were originally worthless at a sky-high price.

"I wonder what kind of cooperation Mr. Sean wants to conduct?"

Su Mo replied with a smile, his face showing sincerity.

"Food!"

"Yes, the delicacies here are unforgettable for everyone in our caravan. I fully believe that the delicacies of Tianyuan Shelter can start from this small place and bring us tens of thousands of wealth!"

"Believe me, you only need to be responsible for making it, don't worry about the rest, we will bring them to all parts of the world!"

When saying these words, Sean's face was full of piety, just like when he chose to buy the Red Spider Chariot.

He firmly believed that the chariot could bring benefits to the caravan and bring him more and more wealth.

And now, the food in this small gathering place is the same.

Although its taste is still a long way from the exquisite food produced by the top masters in the Holy City.

Especially in the selection of ingredients, the two are completely different.

But there is an important problem.

The cost of this thing is so low that it can be completely ignored.

Just mix some starch extracted from the starch machine into flour, knead it, rub it, and pull it into noodles.

Then add some inferior meat extracted from the protein machine and mixed with plant fragments.

After a period of time, this ordinary combination of ingredients can actually achieve 80% of the taste of Holy City cuisine.

What concept?

When Sean calculated the possible benefits he might get, his whole head was confused.

The cost may be only 5 business coupons, but the selling price can be marked as 20 business coupons.

A full 40 times of terrifying profit, anyone who comes here will be crazy and unable to control themselves.

And this thing also has an advantage in that it is very easy to transport!

Compared to having to eat it immediately and feel the delicious time-sensitive food, Sean tested it.

He bought a dish of very ordinary stir-fried wild vegetables and left it at room temperature overnight.

When it was heated up the next morning.

This dish could still retain more than 95% of its flavor, especially the special flavor that did not dissipate at all.

If it could be canned and stored at low temperature and taken to other places for trading.

Not to mention the Red Spider Chariot, Sean even has the confidence to upgrade all the chariots in a very short time!

However.

For Sean's emotional remarks, Su Mo's smile remained unchanged, but he didn't believe a single punctuation mark in his nonsense.

Who can't draw a pie in the sky?

As the manager of Tianyuan Territory, he just drew a pie in the sky for all the villagers.

Unexpectedly, Sean also did this in the blink of an eye.

However

"Thank you, Mr. Sean, for praising the food in Tianyuan Shelter. We have thought about bringing these foods out to the entire New World and bringing back valuable foreign exchange wealth. But you know, we don't have extra resources to support the high initial manufacturing costs. It's not just the production lines and equipment needed to package the food, but more importantly, the raw materials we make the food."

After hearing this, Sean was obviously stunned. He didn't understand what Su Mo meant at first.

Production line, is there any difficulty in this thing? It's not difficult to package a can.

As for raw materials, as long as there is energy, this thing is the least valuable thing.

"Mr. Su Mo, I don't understand what you mean."

"You said that the caravan can provide all these?!"

He thought about poaching the two people who cooked these two days, but to his surprise, these two people were so loyal that he was also a little surprised. That performance was completely like being brainwashed and unwilling to step out of the gathering place.

After finding that he couldn't win over with a large sum of money, Sean also thought about using force to kidnap them directly.

But in the end, he chose to respect.

Between long-term interests and short-term gains, he is not a short-sighted person, so he will naturally not choose the latter.

Seeing the increasing confusion in Sean's eyes, Su Mo immediately guessed what he was thinking, so he quickly added:

"It's like this. We can leave the food sales channel of Tianyuan Shelter to Mr. Sean and the Red Spider Caravan. We can sign a long-term agreement to ensure the interests of both parties."

“But regarding manufacturing, we hope to have our own production lines and raw materials, please understand.

Own production lines and materials?

Sean was stunned for a moment and reacted instantly.

It's already such an obvious hint.

He was not stupid, and of course he knew that Sumo meant he wanted a starch machine and a protein machine.

If this request were placed on Blue Star, Sean would definitely agree without hesitation. After all, the price of these two machines is not expensive, and the total price is only 50,000 coupons at most.

If you go shopping for second-hand goods, you can even buy them with only 20,000 to 30,000 coupons.

After all, it's not as much as the food expenses paid to Tianyuan Shelter these days.

But now the world has changed. Before returning to the foundation headquarters, the caravan did not dare to trade these two life-saving machines.

so

"Friend, if you want a starch machine and a protein machine, when we return to the foundation headquarters, we can help you purchase and bring them back next time. This shouldn't take long, at most three months."

People always want benefits and don't want to pay.

I have a clear understanding of what I have to pay and calculate, but I don't want to take any risks.

Want to be a white wolf with nothing?

How can it be.

Sumo smiled, finally revealing his true purpose.

"I believe in Sir Sean's ability. Of course, he can help us bring back the machine we want in three months."

"But during this period, you have also seen that it is when our gathering areas need development the most."

"So I want to make a deal with Mr. Sean. Can I take a loan to buy some other things first?"

With this disaster, it will be difficult for the aborigines in the city to come out and cause damage in a short period of time.

A bumper harvest for the plantations in the territory is just around the corner.

At this time, even if you get a starch machine and a protein machine, it will not have a qualitative change in development.

Therefore, the best choice is to exchange for more special machines recorded on the previous list.

"loan"

Sean did some calculations in his mind and weighed the possible expenditure, and then he could only ask cautiously.

"You also saw the list, what do you need?"

"A Red Spider Chariot?"

"What?"

Sean's face changed drastically, his head shook like a rattle, and he refused continuously:

"This is impossible. None of the caravan's Red Spider Chariots will be sold. This is the basic guarantee for us to travel in the wasteland. And there is no need to go out to your gathering place. It is completely unaffordable to take the Red Spider Chariot back for a day. Any help would just be a headache with its energy needs."

Refuse so simply?

Sumo's expression was slightly unhappy, but he was already happy in his heart.

Just now, he was really afraid that Sean would hesitate and reluctantly part with this red spider chariot.

If you ask for something else at that time, it will inevitably make the other person feel a little greedy.

Now is the time. What is important at the negotiation table is the broken window effect.

"Is there anything that can quickly improve our productivity? As long as it can help our development." Looking at the depressed Sean, Sumo took the initiative to lower his posture and handed over the power.

Who knows which of the things on that list are useful and which are useless.

If Sean gives you a bad one, you can find an excuse to return it and replace it with another one after testing.

If you choose, you can only break your teeth and swallow it.

"productive forces"

Sean pondered for a moment: "If I were you, I would give priority to a high-quality melting furnace. I have seen the tools you produce, and they are very basic in refining raw materials. If the quality of material production can be improved, it will Will greatly improve the durability and strength of the tool.”

"Or choose a construction cement foam machine, which can help you quickly build a durable house in the wilderness, which is much stronger than these thin iron sheets."

Smelting furnace, construction cement foam machine?

Hearing these two unfamiliar terms, Sumo secretly clenched his fists and felt very excited.

The bet was right.

As expected, Sean had hidden a lot of good stuff on that list, and these two machines were not even listed on the list.

"Can I see exactly what they do?"

"sure."

Sean nodded, thought for a moment, and then motioned for Somo to follow him in.

If it was a previous relationship, it would be quite risky to allow strangers to enter the caravan.

But before the benefits he was about to get, he couldn't help but let down a lot of his vigilance.

Furthermore, every move of the other party is right under your nose, so it is impossible for him to do anything extraordinary.

Entering the interior of the chariot through the side door, Sumo's eyes lit up as he looked at the dust-free interior cabin and various equipment.

This old boy really has a lot of good things in his hands.

Most of the space inside the entire tank is filled with strange and unknown equipment, which is filled with a strong sense of technology.

Come to the right side of the chariot.

Pointing to a slightly worn-out circular furnace in the corner, Sean coughed lightly:

"This is a dissolution furnace that can automatically generate the corresponding deconstruction liquid based on the ingredients of the metal."

“Soaking the metal in deconstruction liquid before smelting it can greatly speed up the process of extracting impurities.”

I had already prepared myself for the black technology in the hands of the Blue Star people.

After hearing Sean's introduction, Su Mo was slightly surprised, but his expression remained normal.

"We do need this thing to improve the quality of the materials, but I want to see another device."

"No problem."

Sean walked forward again and stopped in front of a long strip of machine.

In terms of shape, this construction cement foam machine looks a bit strange, and it looks like an enlarged version of the Kabuda Transformer.

In the middle of the square device, a rectangular gap is hollowed out.

The larger part on the left side of the gap is marked with S, and the smaller part on the right side is marked with R.

In the upper left corner, there is a nozzle that can be connected to the nozzle on the ground.

"It's hard to explain the use of this thing just by introducing it to death. Why don't I have someone carry it out to show you the effect."

Sean waved his hand, and immediately two power armor guards came forward.

The two of them exerted force on their hands, and the heavy-looking construction cement foam machine was lifted up and went all the way to the open space outside.

"R is the raw material. We need something very common. You don't have to worry about it being hard to find."

"S is the output foam. Here are the remaining scale lines."

Pick up the nozzle and press the button.

Huh.

A stream of dark blue mud flew out from it and gathered in the open space in front, leaving a small lump.

The texture of the mud is very soft and it is still trembling slightly when it falls on the ground.

"The cement foam is very soft at the beginning. We can quickly shape it according to the desired shape."

Walking forward, Sean inserted his hands into the mud and fiddled with it.

About three minutes later, he built a crooked wall that looked like it would collapse at any time.

"The drying time of the foam is one hour. It will be affected by air humidity and light, but it is not a big problem."

"Just make sure it will not collapse."

"The best way to use it is to make a general frame first, and then use it to fill the gap."

"In addition, using high-power infrared light can also speed up the drying speed."

Sean coughed, and the guards beside him immediately came forward to straighten the crooked wall and fixed two plastic pipes.

Then he took out a spotlight as big as a human head from the chariot for irradiation.

In less than five minutes, it exploded with a crisp sound.

Su Mo curiously stepped forward to touch it.

The silt that looked soft before was surprisingly hard at this time, and it felt like real cement concrete.

"Its strength is much stronger than you think. Go and test it for our friends."

Sean seemed very confident about his products.

Sure enough, the two power armor guards came forward and punched continuously, even if it made a rumbling sound.

This unsupported cement wall was only shaking, with no sign of collapse.

"What a great thing!"

Observe the effect clearly.

Su Mo was overjoyed, and several different uses flashed through his mind in an instant.

He was previously worried about how to reduce the cost of ground construction, but now this cement foam machine is simply a magical tool.

Not only can it increase the speed of construction, but it can also greatly reduce the losses after being damaged by natural disasters.

For the Red Spider Caravan that needs to move all the time, this thing can only play a very limited role.

But for the territory that needs to be defended, this thing is really the best for building defense facilities.

What a pleasant surprise!
