Chapter 279 Exorbitant Medical Costs
After sending the people away and closing the door, Lu Chuanping, who was originally cold and solemn, immediately changed his face. With a greedy smile on his face and a flattering smile, he came back in a hurry.
"Can I unpack it?"
"certainly."
Tang Ranran continued to take out the box, while Lu Chuanping hurriedly checked the contents of the box with the heart of unpacking express delivery.
Pure fruits and vegetables!
All pure fruits and vegetables!
Lu Chuanping was bubbling with joy.
Tang Ranran prepared about 15 cubic meters of storage boxes, mainly green leaves and green vegetables. The number of boxes is only more than one.
Because the purification values of leaves and rhizomes are different, with a purification value of 35 to 45, it was difficult for Lu Chuanping to give an estimate for a while, so he could only take it back and have it calculated by a professional inspection and testing team.
Tang Ranran didn't care at all about the goods first and payment later. She simply said: take it away, take it away first!
After handing over the goods, Tang Ranran couldn't help but ask, "How is the situation recently? Will there be a war?"
"How should I put it, the current situation... um..."
The joy of receiving the goods faded away, and Lu Chuanping was a little embarrassed. He looked at her with a complicated look and hesitated to speak.
"You can't just pretend I didn't ask." Tang Ranran waved his hand knowingly.
"It's not that I can't say it, but..." Lu Chuanping scratched his head and hesitated for a long time before he said a bit unspeakably, "Can you go on credit first and borrow some high-purification value pure food for turnover?"
"Huh?" Unexpectedly, the topic suddenly jumped to 'borrowing money'. Tang Ranran was stunned for a moment. After the surprise, his eyes immediately fell on Hunting and asked him, "Are you going to do dangerous work again? Last time. Are all the ones used?"
Although he is in the Expeditionary Combat Force, Lu Chuanping is just a logistician, and the chance of encountering danger is low. Moreover, if it is for his own use, there is no need to add the words "high purification value".
What is used is hunting.
After hesitating for a moment, Hunting didn't want to say anything, but in the end he nodded and said 'hmm'.
He took Lu Chuanping's place and immediately went into battle. Balabala told everything about the situation.
"The situation on the border is changing. Some time ago, the Atwood Swarm and the Empire were in tit-for-tat, full of gunpowder. But now, the Bertram Swarm has stepped in and got involved. The Bertram Swarm is also the ninth Zerg Swarm. One of the great royal insect swarms, very powerful in combat."
Tang Ranran was shocked: "Hit us?!!"
2VS1, the bugs are shameless and engage in group fights!
Lu Chuanping waved his hand and explained, "No, no, a high-grade gilt mine was discovered on the territory of the Bertram insect swarm. High-grade gilt is an important material for building mechas, and it is also a rare special mineral deposit in our empire."
"The Bertram swarm wants to exchange gilt mines for pure fruits and vegetables from our empire. Trade negotiations have already begun. Atwood was originally undecided whether to go to war. Now with Bertram's control, the probability of a war has greatly increased. Reduced."
Tang Ranran: "Isn't this a good thing?"
"No, no, the surface is a good thing, but!" Lu Chuanping changed the subject, "Yes, but! You must be on guard against people, and you must always be on guard against insects! This is just a surface. Phenomenon."
"The price has been negotiated and the negotiation is successful, then the next step is to mine the gilt mine. The key to the problem is here. Although the Zerg have stolen many technologies from us humans, they have not learned many core and difficult technologies. .The mining of gilt ore is one of the core and difficult technologies.”
"So, the Zerg won't do it! Our empire can only send people to mine. There is a lot of knowledge involved in mining mineral deposits on the Zerg's territory. If the Behrendt swarm is pretending to trade, in fact, it has secretly cooperated with Atwood Are the swarms hooking up?"
"Or maybe they deceived people and arrested them in order to steal technology? The so-called gilt mine trade may also be a conspiracy."
"After all, it's been tens of thousands of years. The Zerg are no longer a group of idiots with only brute strength and no brains. They have also evolved to be capable of conspiracy!"
"Have to guard against it!"
"So, if the negotiation is successful, the expert expedition team that goes deep into the Bertram swarm's territory will need a super-strong force escort team, and the space system is the first choice. Then, even if the gilt mine is real, after the trade is established, super-strong force will be needed To protect it, you need to build a space wormhole for teleportation. A wormhole that goes directly to the Zerg needs to be heavily guarded at both ends."
Lu Chuanping pointed at the hunt, "This kind of dangerous job will probably fall on him. Who told him to be from the space system?"
After explaining the situation, Lu Chuanping also explained by the way, "Originally, Bisap's largest lair, there was still some high-purification value pure nutrient solution left, but some time ago, with the bugs, A conflict broke out and a fight resulted in a certain number of casualties, and the rest were used by this guy to treat his soldiers!"
In a moment of urgency, Lu Chuanping finally realized after he finished speaking, it's over, his identity has been exposed!
After only being annoyed for a moment, Lu Chuanping ignored it. Tang Xuan was not stupid. He must have guessed that they were all members of the military.
never mind!
After knowing the whole story, Tang Ranran looked at the hunt with particularly complicated eyes. So, is this the so-called hard work for the able? I always feel like I have endless things to do in hunting.
Moreover, all the ‘blue bottles’ were used to treat soldiers?
As a human being, you can't live without money. As a person with superpowers, you can't live without a blue bottle!
Don’t you know you have some emergency reserves?
Under Tang Ranran's gaze, Hunting hung his head in shame, like a primary school student who had been scolded. He really shouldn't use Tang Xuan's things to be generous to others, but he was allowed to watch the soldiers under him go. Death, he couldn't do it.
Everything has been used, and now facing Tang Ranran, Hunter could only apologize, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made the decision without permission."
"It's okay, don't worry, it's a good thing to save people." Tang Ranran said nonchalantly. For the handsome guy, you should forgive him indiscriminately!
"Your medical resources are very tight. Can the military hospital not be able to handle the load?" Tang Ranran asked Lu Chuanping again.
"How should I put it, it's..." Lu Chuanping sighed helplessly and said quietly, "When fighting against the Zerg, the soldiers fighting on the front line, especially the scouts and pioneers, are prone to radiation infection and mental violence. Most of the seriously injured patients are Damage to mental power and radiation. You also know that pure fruits and vegetables with high purification value are too expensive, and once the disease becomes a sequelae of radiation and the mental power is rioting, basically we can only rely on medicines and pharmaceuticals produced from pure food with high purification value. , in terms of cost... Therefore, this kind of severe treatment must be comprehensively evaluated based on military merit, military position, military rank and other factors. If the comprehensive evaluation is not enough..."
Lu Chuanping didn't say the rest, and just let out a long sigh.
Tang Ranran understood that just like a hospital that didn't have money wouldn't treat a patient, the comprehensive assessment wasn't enough and wouldn't treat him.
After all, it's impossible to spend a lot of money to heal a minion that doesn't contribute much.
Although human life is priceless, medical care has a price. In the final analysis, the cost of medical care is too high.
