Chapter 1476 Gold(2/2)
"Yes, we ran behind them, why didn't they come behind our team?"
.......
Tietou's face suddenly turned cold after hearing this.
"Numbly..."
"Ironhead!"
A warning left Tietou speechless.
Dongfeng came over and shouted to Liu Youguang at the door: "Push away the horses in positions 1, 2, and 3, and move these three teams parallel to the left."
Then he looked at the survivors and shouted:
"Stop making a fuss, there's no need to line up again, hurry up!"
He glared at Tietou and said, "Speak more clearly next time and don't curse at others. You represent the image of our trading market now."
"Don't let everyone ruin the image of the trading market that everyone has worked so hard to create."
"Remember?"
"Remember, Brother Dongfeng."
"Well, go and push those lanes away from the horses."
"Lao Wan, please adjust the roads in Wengcheng. The convoy will come in later." Dongfeng picked up the walkie-talkie and said while walking towards the gate.
The Wengcheng and the gate originally had lanes and sidewalks reserved exclusively for the people of Oil City.
However, the number of people entering the trading market has skyrocketed recently, and it is impossible to expand the gate. The area of the barbican is only that large.
So they can only temporarily use their own lanes and sidewalks.
After Dongfeng and the others were ready, less than five minutes later, the two armored vehicles in the lead drove over.
"Huh? Why are there only five cars?" Dongfeng looked behind the five cars and was a little confused after seeing no other cars.
Crunch! The armored vehicle stopped in front of the private driveway.
Li Zhengping got out of the car.
"Captain Dongfeng."
"Captain Li, didn't you say there were four to five hundred vehicles? What's going on? Where is the convoy?" Dongfeng looked behind him, but still didn't see it.
Li Zhengping smiled and replied: "The main force still has ten kilometers to go, probably ten minutes. We'll be back first."
"Oh, that's it, I understand." Dongfeng nodded.
"Okay, I won't tell you anymore, I'll go to the city first."
Li Zhengping returned to the armored vehicle and slowly drove into the Wengcheng.
Fighters like them only need to go through simple scanning and inspection when entering the barbican. They do not need to be inspected from head to toe like those survivors, even their backpacks and luggage.
If you drive in, inspection will be even more troublesome.
Some dangerous items you carry need to be labeled and handed in, and the food you bring in needs to be eaten by the carrier before you can bring it in.
Therefore, survivors always need to queue up when entering the city, because the inspection is more cumbersome and time-consuming.
But doing so is also necessary because it involves security issues in the trading market.
Therefore.
On weekdays, there will be at least two queues entering the city. If there are many people, three to six sidewalks will be opened.
The three entering teams collectively moved to the left from the 456 sidewalk.
Li Zhengping also entered Wengcheng with these five vehicles.
Ten minutes later, the large army finally arrived.
Looking at the vast convoy, Dongfeng divided his men into two parts. One part was in charge of the survivors entering the city, and the other part was dedicated to giving gestures to the convoy and guiding them to enter the urn city in order.
"Holy crap, where did all these cars come from..."
Among the survivors, some people looked at this scene in amazement and sighed.
"Look, the things on that car are piled too high. This is a move."
"It seems to be the team from Southern Paradise..."
"No, it should be someone from Oil City..."
...
Hundreds of vehicles entered the trading market, attracting the attention of many people.
Lao Luo brought Zhong Chuchu and Lao Huang to the trading market to handle the placement of Southern Paradise personnel.
Originally, a space was reserved for Southern Paradise, but now all the people in Southern Paradise have become non-staff, so adjustments were made and they were relocated to the residential area.
Lao Huang was not familiar with it when he first arrived, so he asked Zhong Chuchu to take him to deal with it.
Bang!
Xiao Jun got out of the car and shouted after seeing Lao Luo:
"Lao Luo."
After seeing Xiao Jun, Lao Luo asked in surprise:
"Didn't you go to the headquarters base? Why did you follow the convoy to Oil City?"
He said with a smile on his face, "You are here just in time. We are not familiar with the materials that Southern Paradise will put in the warehouse. Come and help us count them."
Xiao Jun said helplessly: "Can't we just follow the account book and manual? Lao Luo, you are really... you have caught a young man."
Lao Luo smiled, looked at Lao Huang and said:
"Old Huang, please get familiar with me. I told you in the brief meeting just now that the city lord has reached an agreement with Master Hu from Southern Paradise. From now on, the people in Southern Paradise will be our own."
Lao Huang quickly walked out and said, "Okay."
"Captain Xiao is in trouble."
Xiao Jun waved his hand helplessly.
Suddenly, he remembered something and asked Lao Luo:
"Recently, the headquarters base released a new mission. Do you know about the new mission about gold?"
Lao Luo nodded and said: "I know, I am preparing to send someone to the bank vault to look for it in the past two days."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Hmm, why did the headquarters base suddenly start looking for gold? Didn't they hoard a lot before? Why did they start hoarding again now?" Xiao Jun asked.
After all, Xiao Jun stayed in the Southern Paradise a few days ago and didn't know much about this matter.
When Lao Luo stayed in the trading market and received information about the headquarters base, he was more specific and complete.
"I heard that it was suggested by people from the research institute at the headquarters base. It seems that they are used in making electronic components and other precision instruments. It would be useful to stock up on more for future development."
After hearing Lao Luo's explanation, Xiao Jun nodded. He didn't know much about the specific role of gold.
In fact, when the Da Zhangshu Base broke out in the apocalypse, Li Yu took people to banks in several surrounding counties and cities to move a lot of gold back to the headquarters base.
50 tons were stockpiled back and forth.
This is already a lot. Basically, all cities in southern Gan Province, including some cities I have visited in recent years, will visit banks and empty out the gold in the banks.
Only then did we have fifty tons of gold.
You know, before the end of the world, the entire domestic gold reserve was only more than 2,000 tons, and now it has accumulated nearly one-fortieth.
Quite true!
Later, it was rarely used, and gold had no practical application scenarios in the apocalypse, so I no longer deliberately hoarded gold.
However, with the advancement of industrialization in the base, gold gradually came into use.
Among other things, long-wave wireless radio stations alone require circuit boards, and circuit boards require gold.
Gold is mainly used for the contacts of circuit boards to ensure stable transmission of current and improve the conductivity and corrosion resistance of circuit boards.
Moreover, gold is also used in many places.
Gold's excellent conductivity, ductility and toughness make it an ideal choice for contact point coating of electronic components, which can ensure good contact between components, thereby improving the operating accuracy and stability of electronic systems.
"Lao Luo, Southern Paradise is in Nanshi. There should be many bank ruins around there. You can go there to look for them when the time comes." Xiao Jun reminded.
"Well, I understand. I'll tell the people below later."
Lao Luo said and raised his eyebrows, "No, you haven't answered me yet, why haven't you returned to the headquarters base?"
Xiao Jun said nothing, but he pointed to Ma Yingxue who was directing the convoy next to him.
Lao Luo immediately understood and gave a thumbs up, "Okay."
