Chapter 1726 Good news, another big project!(2/3)

In Da Zhangshu Base and Petroleum City, in order to stabilize the points system after the natural disaster, price guarantee measures were adopted.

The unified price is 0.25 points. No matter when it comes, we must ensure that this price can be stable.

Once food prices rise, it will cause great trouble.

The price of this most basic food has increased, which will make many survivors think that the price of tortillas will increase in the future, in order to prevent the points in their hands from devaluing.

Then spend as much points as possible and exchange them for tortillas.

Anyway, corn tortillas are easy to store, and since the weather is so cold now, they can be stored longer.

In some ways, tortillas also serve as a store of value.

Once all the survivors use their points to redeem tortillas, a run will break out.

The daily production of tortillas at Store No. 2 is based on demand.

For example, if 50,000 copies are sold today, about 60,000 copies will be produced tomorrow.

Once the bank run breaks out, the official store will not be able to exchange enough tortillas, which will cause a trust crisis. So many points accumulated by the survivors in the trading market cannot be exchanged for food.

That's fatal.

It is very likely to cause a riot, and it is a riot that is extremely difficult to suppress.

After all, food is no longer available, and this problem is extremely serious.

Therefore, the stable price of corn tortillas is the stable fundamentals of the trading market.

This is also the reason why domestic rice and flour prices were stable before the end of the world.

This is also the reason why these basic foods remain in a stable state no matter how the market economy changes.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation are the foundation for a country's stability before the end of the world.

In the apocalypse, the fundamental stability in the trading market is food and housing.

In terms of accommodation, living is also very cheap.

Among the worst housing in Zone C, the room on the top floor only costs 0.01 points per day.

Even if you stay for 100 days, you only need 1 point.

Even the poorest person can afford to live in this house and have a place to live as long as he is willing to move and do something.

And water is very cheap now, and ten liters of water only costs 0.01 points.

In terms of food, based on corn tortillas, each one is only 0.25 points.

The tortilla is about the size of a face, about the same size as XJ naan, and the ingredients are solid.

If there is no need to perform physical labor and only the energy to keep a person alive,

According to the standard of not starving to death, one piece of bread can last for five days, or even longer.

But if an adult man performs hard labor, he can easily finish it off with one tortilla for one meal.

People in the apocalypse don't have very good stomachs.

But they have one common characteristic, that is, they can both eat and be hungry.

In the house, Xie Dongming, Zhu Ziming and others chatted about the latest situation of the trading market and analyzed the policies that will be promulgated by the Oil City in the future.

They do business in the trading market, and it is important to be well-informed.

Since they were the first team to enter the trading bazaar, the patrol team members had a pretty good relationship with them.

After all, they all watched the commercial district rise with their own eyes, and they were also the first team to set up a shop before they could do anything. The patrol team also took good care of them.

"Brother Xie, I think...

We still have to find ways to increase our contribution points. Our current transaction points are actually quite a lot, which can fully support the lives of everyone in our team for a long time."

Zhu Ziming squinted his eyes and continued:

"Right now, all we have are trading points. To advance to a higher level, from the current point of view, we can only do some tasks..."

"There are people in the DPRK who are easy to get things done.

If there is someone in our team who is a Level 3 personnel, our life will be much easier in the future. Although Captain Li Zhengping is pretty good to us now, if he is transferred in the future..."

"In the long run, I think we still need to find ways to upgrade our levels. Even if not all of us, some of us must upgrade."

Xie Dongming crushed the cigarette butt and blew out a puff of smoke.

He nodded and said:

"You're right, I've thought about this problem before,

But now that the city is closed, outbound missions have been suspended, and contribution points can only be obtained through engineering and construction tasks."

"You mean, how many people should be photographed to take on engineering projects?"

"Yes, although the quota is limited, we are level four personnel after all, so it should be easy to pick them up." Zhu Ziming nodded.

Xie Dongming took a sip of tea, thought for a moment and said:

"That's okay. The pipeline project is almost finished now.

Later, we may recruit people to guard the buffer city wall, but that is more dangerous.

There is also a greenhouse to be built. If the greenhouse is built, there may be indoor planting and farming in the future..."

"Aren't there already several experimental greenhouses being built in Oil City... There will definitely not be enough farmers by then, I think...

Wait a little longer, and when farming personnel are released later, join them."

Zhu Ziming shook his head and said:

"Brother, I think the contribution points for farming are definitely not high, and there will definitely be some training... In addition, the construction of greenhouses is actually very cold."

"The most important thing is that the people you can contact,

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! If you are engaged in farming, you can only contact the planting experts in Oil City, and if you are building a greenhouse, you can only contact their engineers."

"They are not violent real power agencies."

"I think we should still guard the buffer city wall. The people on top are from the Civil Armed Forces Division brigade. Some of the people on the patrol team are now from the Civil Armed Forces Division!"

"If you want to go, just go to this."

“And you can get more contribution points!”

Xie Dongming frowned and said:

"But guarding the wall is very dangerous. Judging from our current conditions, there is no need for us to take risks..."

He hesitated. He had been at the trading market for a long time and had not been out for a long time.

Staying in such a safe place, he was somewhat accustomed to his current comfortable life.

But he also knew that if he continued to be at ease and was not prepared for danger in times of peace, he would definitely encounter problems one day.

After finishing speaking, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay, then I'll listen to you."

"Let who go?"

Zhu Ziming said freely:

"I'm the first to take the lead. Anyway, I can't help much with the business in the store, and I don't really like doing business."

Xie Dongming glanced at him blankly and made a decision.

"I asked Zihao to go with you."

"You're crazy, Lao Xie! We only have a son, Zihao!"

When Xie Dongming's wife heard this, she couldn't listen anymore and stood up and pulled Xie Dongming.

Zhu Ziming also advised:

"Brother, Zihao is still young, otherwise..."

Xie Dongming took out a cigarette and smoked it loudly.

"Zihao is not young anymore, he is already 25 years old, he is still young!"

Half a moment.

He continued seriously:

"Besides, if you can go, why can't my son go? His life is even more precious? The lives of you old brothers are also lives! Don't persuade me, just let him have a try!"

"ah!!"

"Lao Xie, if you let Zihao go, I will fight with you."

Xie Dongming’s wife pulled Xie Dongming’s arm and cried:

"The end of the world came when Zihao just came of age, and he suffered so much with us.

In the past, our living conditions were almost the same.
