This Game Is Too Realistic-Chapter 273.2: Chips... Chips Everywhere!

From what Chu Guang said, he was sure the man before him not only knew that the corpses of mutants could be sold for money, but also had a good understanding of the market.

Otherwise, why would he think that it would be them who was going to pay him?

Going in circles had lost its meaning at this point.

Ditway looked up at Chu Guang and said frankly, "Sir, I admit that we can earn a little by dragging these corpses to Boulder Town, but that is hard-earned money. These corpses are not light. Whether we drag them from the battlefield or transport them to Boulder Town, it costs a lot of money."

"5 chips per ton is the highest price we can offer. The freight we pay for each ton of goods is far more than that. If the purchase price is higher, we will not be profitable at all... I hope you can understand.” Ditway sighed.

"Of course I can understand, I just simply can’t bear to see you lose money," Chu Guang smiled amiably, and looked at him sincerely. "How about this, I can offer you a better deal."

Ditway faintly felt that something was wrong, but he still forced a smile on his face and forged on. "Please tell me."

Chu Guang continued, "You just said that you have a way to turn the corpses of mutants into something useful. If that’s the case, why not turn it into something useful right here, in the northern suburbs?"

Ditway froze for a moment. "In... In the northern suburbs?"

"That’s right," Chu Guang nodded and continued with a smile, "Since we can produce bullets and shells, naturally we can also produce nutrient cream and fertilizers. Instead of dragging bulky raw materials around, why not just turn it into a lighter weight, higher value-added commodity before bringing it away?"

Ditway blushed.

God damn it. Not only does this person know that the corpses of mutants can be sold for money, he even knows what these corpses of mutants can be made into.

He even watched me make a fool of myself in front of him for a long time… This damn blue gopher!

Ditway lowered his head and coughed lightly in embarrassment, "...The equipment cost tens of thousands of chips and it’s too expensive for us. We have to consider the risks when we open a factory outside the huge wall."

Chu Guang nodded slightly. "That’s understandable. After all, your understanding of us is still limited to last winter, so it is natural to feel worried."

Ditway looked up, eyes full of hope. "Does that mean you agree to..."

"I mean, your lack of understanding of our real situation." Chu Guang looked at Xu Shun who was waiting at the side. "Bring our friends to visit our industrial area, and stay at the hotel in Longevity Town at night. The air there is much better there."

He had already explained to the guards which places they could bring the outsiders and which place should be kept a secret.

Xu Shun’s performance had been pretty good, so Chu Guang believed that he knew what to do.

"Yes sir!" Xu Shun stood at attention and saluted, then looked at Ditway and his group and said politely, "Please follow me."

Ditway looked at Chu Guang in shock, not understanding what he was planning.

Visiting… Their industrial area?

That was something he never expected he would do.

Was there an industrial area in the northern suburbs?

This chapt𝒆r is updated by frёewebηovel.cѳm.

How could a few small workshops be called an industrial area?

Chu Guang could guess what Ditway was thinking, but he didn’t try to clear his doubts instantly.

Sometimes, it was just useless to explain using words.

Facts spoke louder than words.

"I don’t like wasting time on explaining, especially at this juncture."

"I’ll give you 2 choices, either buy the corpses at a price of 20 chips per ton and haul them to where you want to go, or consider setting up a factory here. If you choose the second option, those bodies outside are at your disposal, and we won’t charge you anything. You just need to pay the taxes legally." Looking at Ditway who was standing there without moving, Chu Guang said softly. "Don’t rush into a decision. Give me the answer tomorrow."

...

Ditway couldn’t think of any reason to reject Chu Guang’s proposal.

Although he didn’t think that the country bumpkins in the northern suburbs would understand what it meant to have complete industrial facilities, let alone build a so-called industrial zone, if someone was willing to show him around for free, only a fool would refuse.

Taking a look wouldn’t cost them anything.

Anyway, they were already there.

After getting on the truck on the south side of the Flower Garden Street subway station, and driving along the abandoned road to the intersection of 76th Street and Linghu Wetland Park, the road ahead suddenly became flat.

There was a hint of surprise in Ditway’s eyes.

But the more surprising thing was yet to come.

The truck continued north, stopping near the abandoned tire factory.

When Ditway followed the guard named Xu Shun out of the truck and stepped into the Northern Suburb Industrial Zone, he immediately realized how wrong his previous thinking was!

The sound of banging was incessant, and tall chimneys kept puffing out smokes. Trucks full of goods were passing through the park one after another, and workers in uniforms gathered around the gate to load and unload goods.

Everything was incredibly well organized, like a meticulously designed watch.

3 pairs of eyes widened in shock in unison.

Teno, who was standing next to Ditway, couldn’t help but gulp in fright, "Is this… Is this really the northern suburbs?"

The other partner didn’t speak, but the same surprise was evident in his eyes.

Compared with the industrial area of ​​Boulder Town, this place was undoubtedly much smaller, but to say that they still lacked something, he really couldn’t tell at a glance.

"The factory ahead belonged to a merchant called Liszt."

"Liszt?!" Ditway looked at Xu Shun in surprise, "That guy is here too?"

Xu Shun raised an eyebrow in shock. "You know him?"

Ditway said after a dry cough, "I don’t know… But I’ve heard of him."

The business district in Boulder Town was not very big, and there were only a few well-known local merchants. Of course he knew relatively powerful merchants like Liszt.

Well… Liszt might not know him though.

Xu Shun nodded and didn’t ask anything more. "Except for military factories and factories involving sensitive technologies, I can show you all other factories."

Yang He, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, "Can you show us your power station?"

Xu Shun nodded. "No problem."

Since they needed to set up a factory, power supply was undoubtedly one of the issues they were most concerned about.

The most fearful thing for a production line in stable operation was a sudden power failure, especially if it stopped for a whole day. If one was unlucky, the products on the entire assembly line would be completely ruined.

However, after seeing the power station, the 3 of them immediately dispelled their concerns.

Those blue coats really knew what they were doing.

Not only could they not find any problems with their planning of the power station, but they were also amazed by their transmission and distribution facilities such as the substation and power grid.

It wasn’t very advanced technology, but being able to plan every wire and every generator set in an orderly manner was not something that just anyone could do.

Glancing at the VM on his arm, Xu Shun cleared his throat and said to the surprised trio, "At present, our power is supplied mainly through thermal generation. The large forest farms in the Elm District in the north and the vegetation in the nearby urban areas are enough to supply the consumption of our power station for more than 10 years."

"In addition to this, there are biogas digesters and gas-fired power stations under construction, as well as oil-fired power generation units for Camu Tree."

"In the future, we will consider improving the existing energy structure through diversified power generation methods."

Ditway looked at Xu Shun, slightly surprised. "You also planted Camu Trees?"

There had to be at least 300 to 400 people working in this industrial area.

Since when were there so many people in the northern suburbs?! Could they be refugees from the north?

But even if they took in all the refugees... How did they solve the problem of food supply?

Everyone there had to eat, right?!

"The planned area is nearly 4,000,000 square meters," Xu Shun replied honestly, glancing at VM. "And not just the Camu Tree, we also planted corn and potatoes… And other high-yielding crops."

"I’ll take you to the hotel in Longevity Town later."

"After you get there, you will see it."

...

If the shock Ditway had after seeing the industrial area in the northern suburbs could last for a month, then the situation in Longevity Town was enough to shock him for a whole year.

Fields of seedlings stretched as far as the eye could see. Tractors, double-headed ox, and people could be seen busy working.

The degree of mechanization was not high, but Ditway could see these people’s pursuit of advanced productivity and a better life with the naked eye.

It was something he had never seen in other survivor settlements.

Of course, what interested Ditway the most was the food.

The spicy dish he had was called mapo tofu, and there were also soy stewed pig’s trotters, potatoes with roasted two-headed ox meat...

Everything he ate tasted absolutely amazing!

He was in the food business, and he had long coveted Vega Trading Company’s food processing business.

However, although he was envious, he neither had fields to farm nor slaves. Moreover, he also couldn’t afford expensive land rent, let alone having the capital to open a big factory in Boulder Town.

But everything he needed could be found here.

That night.

In a hotel in Longevity Town, Ditway, who was lying in a warm bed, couldn’t fall asleep. He stared blankly at the beer on the bedside table, motionless, as if in a daze

Finally, he made a decision. He took out a palm-sized messenger from his bag, dictated a thousand-word message, and sent it to his partners in Boulder Town.

It was not that he never thought about doing it alone.

It wouldn’t take much to convince the partners who came with him either.

Gritting his teeth and borrowing some chips from the bank to buy equipment and personnel by himself also was not too difficult.

However… A bold idea had already formed in his mind. He was going to do something, and it was going to be big!

The opportunities in the northern suburbs were far more than just the corpses and nutrient cream. The mere tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of chips could no longer satisfy his appetite.

He wanted to be the largest food supplier in Boulder Town and even ​Clearspring City!

If he could use the power of those people, he felt that he had every hope to do so!

He even had a name for the trading company in mind.

It would be called Ditway Trading Company, and his factory would be called Ditway Food Processing Factory!

Those names were catchy, and they could make people think of him as soon as they heard them. He would not only be able to make money this way, but he would also be able to gain fame.

Thinking of this, the corners of Ditway’s mouth could not help but curl into a smile. "It sounds much better than silly names like ’Delicious’ and ’Extra Delicious’!"

Click. Send!

After beeping twice, his message was delivered!

While waiting for the replies from his partners, Ditway scrolled the palm-sized screen with his index finger, lightly reading the information he had written.

[… The situation in the northern suburbs is incredibly great. With the help of shelter residents, the local survivors built power stations, water towers, and a relatively complete logistics system. They used trucks to transport supplies, and cement to repair broken roads. Steel was cast into steel rails and laid on the ground, new settlements were built in the wilderness, and a large area of ​​wasteland was reclaimed into farmland...]

[We must admit that the towering walls and ruins blocked our view, and our knowledge of this place is still stuck at one year ago. And in less than half a year, they have achieved what the average survivor settlements could not have achieved in a decade.]

[My point is that we can indeed make a fortune shipping the goods to Boulder Town, but if we process them into nutrient cream and organic fertilizer here, we can definitely earn more.]

[In this place, there are opportunities and chips everywhere!]
