This Game Is Too Realistic

The first day the alpha0.3 version went online.

The test results of the new version are quite promising.

With the division of labor and cooperation among the players, first of all, the wall around the outpost was finally completely completed.

This three-meter-high concrete fortification not only brings a sense of security, but also creates possibilities for players to play at night.

Previously, at six o'clock in the evening, Chu Guang would take the players back to the shelter to prevent these guys from being picked up by the alien species that were out looking for food.

Now with the protection of the wall, as long as the players are willing, they can stay on the surface until the characters in the game start to get sleepy (the fatigue value is exhausted).

Of course, for safety reasons, Chu Guang still prohibits players from using facilities with open flames such as blast furnaces at night.

It was okay to make steel and burn cement during the day. The woods blocked a lot of smoke and dust, and the firelight during the day was not that obvious. But if it's nighttime, it's hard to say.

The mutant tribe on 76th Street is like a thorn in the outpost's throat. Unless this thorn is pulled out, Chu Guang will never feel at ease.

In addition to the walls, weapon shops and bathhouses have also been completed with the efforts of players. Although not very luxurious, it is usable.

Especially the bathhouse with partitions, Chu Guang was so satisfied.

In the past, both he and the players had to go to the lake to wash up. Now that there is a bathhouse, hygiene problems can be solved directly in the base.

Of course, the wooden water tank on the top of the bathhouse can only store 5 cubic meters of water. If it is used for a long time, it will inevitably run out of water.

At this time, someone needs to manually transport the water from the lake to the water tank so that the people inside can continue washing, which is indeed a bit troublesome.

Therefore, the wise and great administrator is considering turning the bathhouse from a public welfare facility into a paid facility, charging a water fee of 5 copper coins per cubic meter of water. At the same time, an additional plumber position was set up to fill the water tank on the top of the bathhouse.

This makes sense.

On the other hand, in addition to engineering, the players' performance in production, collection, hunting, and production also exceeded Chu Guang's expectations.

The emergence of currency has greatly stimulated players' enthusiasm for production (games).

Just listening to the jingling in the money bag can dispel the fatigue and weakness in the limbs, allowing them to work hard at their posts with high morale.

Among them, the most outstanding performance is still the Niu Ma squad.

The four old leeks are worthy of being high-level players. Their quadrilateral tactics integrate reconnaissance, front row, output, and support. They have achieved remarkable results in their first cooperation.

By evening, they had hunted a total of eight mutant hyenas and one mutant reindeer while exploring along the elevated route south.

The proceeds from the sale of the prey were equivalent to 55 silver coins - 43 of which belonged to mutant hyenas and 12 to mutant reindeer.

Although the meat-taking rate of mutant hyenas and mutant reindeer is not high, it is usually only over 40% and no more than 50%.

But even so, Brother Scrambled Egg, who served as a temporary butcher, still obtained more than 100 kilograms of hyena meat and more than 100 kilograms of venison from these prey.

The meat will be made into bacon and stored in warehouses. Before being made into bacon, players can also spend money to buy fresh raw meat as their own dinner.

It is worth mentioning that all the outposts used to eat large pots of rice, and Brother Scrambled Egg, who served as the cook, arranged the recipes for two meals a day.

What the players can eat depends on the chef's mood and what prey the manager just brings back that day.

But now it's completely different.

The granary in the base will be open to all players, and the prices are fair and affordable. One silver coin can be exchanged for 1 kilogram of green wheat, or 300g of raw meat, or 200g of bacon jerky.

What is the concept of 1 silver coin?

According to the rules designed by Chu Guang, 1 silver coin is converted into 10 copper coins, which is roughly the median hourly income of players.

In other words, most players can buy enough rations to fill their stomachs as long as they work hard for 1 to 2 hours or do some tasks patiently.

Players can decide for themselves whether to take the purchased food and stuff it directly into their mouths, or add condiments to cook it into wheat porridge or wheat cakes, or share a table with others to eat together or even trade.

When Chu Guang designed this simple economic system before, he did some calculations.

A mutated hyena weighing over 30 kilograms can remove almost 12 kilograms of meat after removing its inedible internal organs and head.

Purchase the prey from the hunter at a basic price of 5 silver coins, hire a butcher to kill and remove the meat, and skin it for an average cost of 2 silver coins. The total cost is only 7 zero-cost silver coins.

Assume that 12 kilograms of meat are taken out. According to the price of 1 silver coin for 300g of raw meat, 12 kilograms is 40 silver!

The output value is 40 silver coins, the production cost is 7 silver coins, and the circulation cost can be ignored. Therefore, in this simple economic chain, a residual value of 33 silver coins will be generated.

This number is meaningless to the players, after all, they are playing games, but for Chu Guang, as a manager, it means too much.

As long as this economic chain of "from prey to raw meat" can continue to operate, each operation can provide the outpost's granary with "raw meat worth 33 silver coins" and "furs worth several silver coins."

Of course, players cannot consume all the raw meat. Even if they take out all the money in their pockets, they cannot buy everything they produce. It is not appropriate to overeat.

Therefore, in addition to a small part of the meat that is purchased by the players with the silver coins he distributes, more raw meat will be left and flow into the new economic chain as "raw materials", and will be stored in the granary in the form of dried meat as a refuge. The place’s food reserves.

In addition to the "from prey to dried meat" industry, cutting down trees, picking up garbage, burning cement, moving bricks, gathering, and fishing are basically similar economic models.

Through the two levers of price and task reward, you can easily adjust the inventory of various materials and the focus of the players' current work.

For example, now that the wall has been built, the base's need for plastering and moving bricks has decreased. Instead, more food and weapons are needed to feed and arm more players.

Therefore, Chu Guang will appropriately lower the price of weapons in the carpentry hut to stimulate players to order weapons and upgrade equipment. At the same time, he will increase the purchase price of prey and urge capable players to use the purchased weapons to hunt and improve their proficiency.

In this way, players have money, equipment, and accumulated combat experience. Chu Guang's side not only obtained a large amount of food reserves, but also obtained a group of soldiers with abundant martial arts.

It’s a win-win situation!

No, it should be a win-win-win situation!

Because as a manager, Chu Guang can win twice!

Those few coins were like a catalyst, obviously creating no value, but revitalizing the economy of the entire outpost.

Chu Guang felt that he was simply a genius.

The only small problem that arises is that no one is cooking today.

Brother Scrambled Egg hasn’t saved enough money yet, and the restaurant hasn’t opened yet.

In order to save money, almost everyone went to the warehouse to live on subsistence allowances. They used 1 silver coin to buy a kilogram of potato chips. A few teammates rented a big pot and started a fire. When it was cooked, they ate it and then rented it after eating it. To the next person.

It doesn't matter if it's not cooked. This thing can be eaten raw. It's just a matter of hygiene and taste.

It seems that in an instant, everyone who has a goal suddenly no longer cares about whether the food is delicious or not, and has carried forward the style of hard work to the extreme. The only requirement is to be full!

Only Crow Crow is different.

Everyone else was happily eating potatoes, but she couldn't even buy potatoes.

Because the manager forgot to give her a subsistence allowance, and it was too late to find her teammates when she went online, she was sitting in the corner munching sour berries and mushrooms with a look of resentment on her face.

In the end, Teng Teng couldn't stand it anymore and walked over to share half the bowl of mashed potato chips with her.

Looking at the crows devouring the food, Teng Teng couldn't bear to ridicule her and sighed.

"Starting from tomorrow, you have to do your tasks and make money. I can't support you forever."

Crow Crow was moved and saved Teng Teng.

"Teng Teng, are you an angel?"

Looking at Crow Crow, whose eyes were shining with tears, Teng Teng, whose face was squeezed out of shape, sighed, and got out from under her arm with a blushing face.

"...What stupid things are you talking about."

It was getting dark.

Chu Guang was walking in the base, inspecting his territory and the situation of the players.

Although most players want to stay a little longer, in reality it will be dawn in another two hours, and the workers will have to wash up and go to work.

Chu Guangxun thought that it was getting late, and was about to call them to gather. However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door at the north gate of the base.

All the players looked toward the door. Chu Guang's right hand subconsciously grasped the pistol in his pocket, but soon let go.

Through the player list, he confirmed that the people outside should be garbage men.

Looking at the two players closest to him, Chu Guang ordered.

"Fang Chang, Lao Bai, go and open the door."

"yes!"

Fang Chang and Lao Bai trotted forward, lifted the latch stuck on the door, and worked together to open the wooden door a crack.

Fang Chang and Lao Bai were startled when they saw Jun Jun sneaking in through the crack in the door.

"What the hell?"

"Brother, what's wrong with you?!"

Blood!

Covered all over!

Although some of the wounds have healed, most of them are bites and gunshot wounds that are visible to the naked eye.

Seeing Jun Jun's appearance, Chu Guang frowned slightly. He probably guessed what happened to this guy.

But fortunately, if the other party regards it as a different species, and it is not very tasty, it is unlikely to pursue it.

Ignoring his injuries, Mr. Garbage quickly walked up to the manager and panted.

"The predator's camp! It's about 2 kilometers north of the abandoned construction site, about 3 to 4 kilometers away from us! There's a tire factory there!"

Ye Shi couldn't help but ask: "Did you have a fight with them?"

"No, no, I swear I didn't provoke them!"

Mr. Garbage quickly waved his hand to clarify, glanced at the manager and continued, "I was planning to retreat at that time, but I happened to bump into their patrol... When I saw there were three of them."

Ye Shi: "Then you still started to have sex with them?"

Jun Jun looked embarrassed and looked away.

"Uh... I got hit, there's nothing I can do about it."

It looked like this guy had lost the fight.

But it's not surprising that the patrol of three people should also bring a dog. This is probably where the bites on its body came from.

Although this guy has an absolute advantage in terms of panel data, he may not be able to gain anything from fighting against an experienced Predator veteran.

I'm lucky to be a running back.

"Is this the tire factory in the north? I understand," Chu Guang nodded, looked at Jun Jun and said, "You should go back to the training cabin to rest first."

The culture chamber has the function of accelerating the repair of tissue cells for the self-synthesized clones. Coupled with Junk Jun's own physical attributes, it should not take long for him to recover.

"Yes, Sir Manager." After saying that, Junk Jun waggled his tail and limped towards the direction of the sanatorium.

Along the way, many players noticed his situation and whispered to each other in low voices.

"This guy is so seriously injured!"

"I heard that a raider camp was discovered."

"Plunderer Camp?! Are we going to open a new dungeon!"

"Awesome!"

"Damn it, I need to get some money to buy a gun quickly!"

"Hey, I'm confused. Should I buy the land first or the gun first?"

"Don't be stupid, just move the bricks first."

Obviously, these players did not realize the difficulty of the problem, but instead discussed it excitedly.

This is understandable.

After all, this is a game to them.

Only Chu Guang, a manager, had a trace of urgency on his brows.

To the north is the predator camp, to the east is the mutant lair, to the west is Lake Linghu, and to the south is the area where the survivors of Bate Street and Brown Farm live.

The location of the outpost is indeed not very good, and the development space is severely restricted.

"Whether it's a predator or a mutant."

"If you want to open up the situation, you can only fight with it..."

Chu Guang has already thought about the content of the next expansion pack.
