Deep Sea Survival: Start a Submarine
Chapter 81: It's good to be a hands-off shopkeeper
Popular recommendation:
All the way through the bustling and dirty city of Syr.
When Meng Lei returned to the pirate ship docked at dock 59 along the route he came from.
It's been over an hour.
On the boat at this time, Huo Ye was the only one left sitting in the command room smoking a cigarette.
Staring closely at the center console, the delicate introduction booklet that was almost crumpled into a mess of rotten paper.
In the darkness, there were two deep eyes flashing.
I don't know what he was thinking.
It wasn't until the sound of the hatch opening that the man who was sitting still trembled slightly, and then turned around a little stiffly.
After seeing Meng Lei, Huo Ye's face became slightly more agile.
"Commander Meng, you're back, they didn't do anything to you, did they?"
Out of concern for Meng Lei, Huo Ye stepped forward and looked up and down carefully.
Meng Lei smiled slightly and shook his head.
He raised his hand and patted Huo Ye's shoulder, comforting:
"It's okay, don't worry, everything has been dealt with, our ship can move forward unimpeded in the future."
With that said, Meng Lei looked around.
Seeing that the ship was deserted, it seemed that no one else was there, so he asked:
"What about Awen and Captain Chen?"
Huo Yedao: "After getting the citizen ID card, they all went out.
Awen told Xu Hui to go to the city to see and see this underwater city. After reading the introduction booklet, Pharaoh and Captain Chen immediately contacted the leaders of the other major fleets, and then left. "
After speaking, Huo Ye paused for a moment.
Then he looked up at Meng Lei, and said with a trace of resentment in his eyes:
"Brother Meng, why are you talking about the **** from the Tia star, why did you bring us blue star people here!
I *****, the family is gone, the people are scattered, just to save their ethnic group, drag our ethnic group to be buried with you? !
What shit! Hold! "
Huo Ye was a little excited, and his face muscles twitched uncontrollably because of his anger.
Meng Lei sighed helplessly.
He stepped forward and patted Huo Ye on the shoulder and comforted:
"Things have come to this stage, it's useless to say anything, calm down first, take a good rest and rest.
The matter about Tia and the mother star is by no means finished!
Looking back, I will discuss the countermeasures with Captain Chen and other fleet leaders.
Don't think too much about it. "
Huo Ye took a deep breath, pulled out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the center console, lit it, and took a swig.
Spicy thick smoke drifted in the lungs, and then spewed out with the qi in the chest.
In the smoke.
This forty-year-old man's eyes were wet, and after all, he didn't say anything more, turned around and walked towards the crew room.
Seeing the back of Huo Ye leaving, Meng Lei let out a long sigh.
Suddenly thinking of the Searle Weekly thing, an idea came to mind.
Perhaps, through the influence of this magazine, maybe it can help Huo Ye find his lost daughter?
Meng Lei felt that this method might have a certain effect.
Keeping this idea in mind, Meng Lei sat silently in the command room for a while.
After rationalizing his thoughts, he compiled a series of information obtained from Roger in his mind and digested it again.
Then, he picked up the booklet that Huo Ye had crumpled into a ball.
Forcefully smoothing out the folds, carefully turned page by page.
Much of what is mentioned in this booklet is similar to what Roger dictated.
But relatively speaking, Roger's expression is more complete, and he has perfected the general history and background of the entire Alien.
But there are some things that Roger didn't mention.
For example, the architectural planning of the commercial area, the procurement points of various materials, the new wetsuit and luxury stores, the location of the shipyard, etc.
These include introductions and maps of many of the major facilities in Seale City, accounting for almost half of the entire booklet.
Meng Lei silently kept all these materials in his heart.
at last.
Thick tiredness hit, Chen Yu and the others never came back.
Looking down at the time on the center console, it was almost twelve noon.
After fighting all night, he was at the forefront of the whole process, and he never had time to rest.
This night, the loss of spirit is quite huge, even the iron man can't bear it.
Meng Lei simply went back to the captain's room to make up for himself first.
I don’t know if it’s because the amount of information harvested today is too huge, and the subconscious is full of this kind of information.
At this moment, Meng Lei's dream was very chaotic and absurd.
It seems that there is a huge light group somewhere, calling him constantly.
Involuntarily attracted him to chase, to approach.
I do not know how long it has been.
A faint sound of gunfire woke him up from his sleep.
The metal clock on the bedside table, the white numbers beat in the dark.
The time indicated that it was now 5:20 in the afternoon.
More than five hours of sleep did not bring much improvement to Meng Lei's mental state.
The mind is still very dizzy.
The huge light group in the dream seemed to still appear in front of him.
He leaned on the bed and smoked a cigarette to refresh himself.
At this time.
Ruowu's gunshots, accompanied by noisy shouts, came from a long distance above the head.
Meng Lei woke up suddenly.
"The sound of gunshots?! Where did the sound of gunfire come from?!"
Realizing that something was wrong, he hurriedly rushed out of the captain's room.
Before going out a few steps, he met Huo Ye who was coming here.
"Old Huo, what's going on outside?"
Huo Ye had a solemn look on his face, and said solemnly:
"Some people are dissatisfied with the behavior of Tia's home planet and have a conflict with the local aliens, right here at Docker 59!"
Hearing this, Meng Lei frowned.
Since knowing the truth of the matter, he has long realized that this situation is inevitable.
When encountering such a thing, not everyone can remain rational and restrain the dissatisfaction and anger in their hearts.
after all.
The originally happy life and family were instantly shattered because of Tia's selfish behavior.
Not everyone can accept such a blow.
And from the point of view of civilization.
This kind of forcible plundering is no exaggeration even if it rises to the height of declaring war.
Let alone explore the abyss together and complete the rescue of the two races.
The Blue Star players didn't start a direct battle here, so they were already quite restrained and rational.
therefore.
It's perfectly normal to have some minor conflicts and frictions.
Meng Lei didn't take it to heart either.
After a pause, Meng Lei asked:
"Pharaoh and Captain Chen, haven't they returned yet?"
It has been six or seven hours since Chen Yu and Wang Qi left.
It stands to reason that it would not take so long to connect with the leaders of the other major fleets?
"No."
Huo Ye shook his head: "Awen and the others didn't either..."
Halfway through speaking, the hatch of the airlock room suddenly opened, and Wang Qi ran over panting.
As soon as he entered the door, Wang Qi's eyes lit up after seeing Meng Lei.
He hurried forward and said to Meng Lei:
"Commander, it's fine if you are on board. Come with me. The important personnel of several major fleets are all here, waiting for you!"
Hearing this, Meng Lei was slightly startled.
"what's the situation?"
Wang Qi bent down, took a breath, and explained:
"We ran back and forth for a long time, and finally rented a house in the living area on the second floor of Xier City as a contact point for our Blue Star fleets.
Now that everyone is almost there, wait for you to go to the meeting to discuss the next plan. "
"You... actually rented a suite!?"
Meng Lei was stunned for a moment, feeling very incredible.
No wonder Wang Qi and the others haven't come back after going out for so long. Their feelings are to go out to rent a house!
It has to be said that these people are really efficient.
"Yeah, it cost 10,000 marks! It was rented for half a year!" Wang Qi said: "Fortunately, the cost is shared equally by several fleets, otherwise, who would be willing to pay such a large sum of money!"
Meng Lei was a little dumbfounded, but at the same time, he praised the wise choices of the leaders of the major fleets.
There is indeed a need for a fixed base between the major fleets, which is specially used for joint and negotiation.
Otherwise, a large group of people can't come to the pirate ship every time.
"Let's go Commander, everyone has been waiting for a long time, and we still have dozens of minutes to go!" Wang Qi urged.
Meng Lei nodded, followed Wang Qi and walked outside.
Before leaving the house, Meng Lei explained to Huo Ye again:
"Old Huo, after Awen and the others come back, tell them not to run around. When Captain Chen and I come back, let's have a small meeting first."
"Yes!"
Huo Ye nodded heavily.
The hatch was closed, and Meng Lei and Wang Qi quickly walked towards the center of the ground floor area.
At this time, it can be clearly seen that the ground floor area is much more lively than in the morning.
A large number of Blue Star players stepped out of the submarine one after another and began to look at and familiarize themselves with this underwater city.
After entering the Xiercheng business district, the bustling scene is more than ever.
In the narrow and messy streets and alleys, Blue Star players can be seen everywhere, and everyone is curiously exploring every corner of this fantastic city.
certainly.
The number of armed men in the uniforms of security officers in the city also increased significantly compared to the morning.
obviously.
These alien natives are also on guard against Blue Star players, for fear that the other party will create a riot in the city.
Any weapons will be confiscated even when stepping out of the dock.
But the number of Blue Star players is simply too many.
Even if one person spit, it is enough for these alien natives.
The two walked quickly through this neon steel jungle, and the shocking heavy metal music storm kept coming from their ears.
All kinds of strange advertisements and slogans, flashing people dazzled.
If you put aside the harsh and cruel living environment.
This dream city full of wilderness and psychedelic atmosphere from the inside out will definitely make people intoxicated.
But at this moment, Meng Lei and Wang Qi had no intention to miss the scenery along the way.
The two walked fast.
Go to the deepest part of the city edge, the airlock room embedded in the icy rock formation, and take the elevator to the living area on the second floor.
Under the leadership of Wang Qi, the two of them walked towards the end of the living area, the luxurious residential area that was stacked on top of each other.
finally.
In front of a four-story apartment building made of pure metal, Wang Qi stopped.
"Commander, this is it."
Wang Qi pointed to the building number on the gate and said:
"Building 68 in Area C, the contact point for everyone in the future will be here!"
Meng Lei looked up and down this relatively tall metal building, and nodded slightly.
It was faintly visible through the glass windows on the metal walls.
The room was crowded with people, and there seemed to be a lot of people.
"It's quite lively."
Meng Lei grunted.
Wang Qi smiled and said: "There are indeed quite a few people here, in addition to the fleets that have formed alliances with us, there are also the heads of some larger groups of scattered people, who also came to the scene after hearing about it.
These people were recommended by the leaders of each fleet, and they were relatively reliable. "
"Um."
Meng Lei nodded, and without further delay, stepped forward to open the door and walked in directly.
At the entrance of the gate, there is a table, and a special person is responsible for registering the participants.
Meng Lei took out his ID card.
After seeing Meng Lei's name, the registrar immediately stood up from the chair and said very politely:
"Hello Commander Meng, please move to the third floor. The officers have been waiting for you for a long time."
"it is good."
Meng Lei smiled slightly, and accompanied by Wang Qi, came to the door of a large conference room on the third floor.
Standing in the corridor, Meng Lei could hear the noisy voices in the room.
The discussion seemed to be extremely heated.
At this time.
Wang Qi stepped forward and opened the door of the conference room.
After a while, the noisy sound stopped abruptly.
Dozens of eyes glanced at the gate in unison, and then focused on Meng Lei.
Gaze over.
Meng Lei found that most of the people present were familiar faces.
Dislav, the commander-in-chief of the Winter Fleet, An Ran, the commander-in-chief of the Beiming Fleet, Jiang Song, the commander-in-chief of the Deep Blue Fleet...
Several fleet leaders who had met with him on the pirate ship were all listed.
In addition, there are many unfamiliar faces.
As he glanced over, he was also looking at him curiously.
These people should be the heads of those scattered organizations.
For such an occasion, Meng Lei was somewhat uncomfortable.
With an embarrassed smile on his face, he raised his hand and greeted everyone:
"Hello everyone."
The next moment, Dislav of the Winter Fleet enthusiastically got up to meet him, gave Meng Lei a bear hug, and said:
"Commander Meng, my friend, you are finally here, please take a seat! We were discussing you just now!"
Meng Lei raised his brows suspiciously, and under the guidance of Dislav, he came to the vacant seat beside Chen Yu and sat down.
"What are you discussing about me?"
Meng Lei was at a loss.
At this time, the female commander of the Beiming Fleet, An Ran, said with a smile:
"Of course it's to discuss your heroic deeds of rushing to the forefront for everyone!"
The commander-in-chief of the deep blue fleet, Jiang Song, who is not much older than Meng Lei, also laughed:
"If it weren't for your pirate ship attracting a large number of sea monsters in front, everyone would have to pay a higher price if they wanted to rush out of that underwater cave."
A few people said something to me, and when they came up, they first praised Meng Lei.
This made Meng Lei feel a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and said with a smile:
"It should be, it should be.
In that case, everyone just has to support each other.
Now that we have come to Alien, we Blue Star people must work together to gain a firm foothold here. "
The voice fell.
Jiang Song of the Deep Blue Fleet took the lead in applauding.
"That's right, what Commander Meng said is quite right!
This is exactly what I just suggested!
This time, our Blue Stars were forcibly kidnapped by the mother planet of the Tia people with despicable means. This is already a blatant provocation and declaration of war!
We must unite and launch a fierce counterattack!
Let these Tia people open their eyes and see, we Lanxing people are not slaughtered by others, so easy to bully! "
When the voice fell, An Ran was the first to retort:
"Little brother, can you be more mature in thinking about things?
I know brainless violence all day long, I really can't understand how you can win over so many people. "
Jiang Song was not angry, and continued:
"Violence is the most direct means to solve problems!
The home planet of the Tia people is now driving our Blue Star towards the level of civilization extinction.
If we don't resist, can we let them continue to oppress? ! "
At this moment, another voice sounded nearby.
"The extinction of civilization is not so close, at least from the current situation.
The old, weak, sick and children on our Blue Star did not seem to be forced to cross this deep sea.
The main characteristics of the crossing group are generally between the ages of 18 and 55, and they are healthy and have no hidden diseases.
Others may have been left in Blue Star to continue the development of civilization. "
Meng Lei turned his head to look.
The person who said this seems to be of European descent.
In Meng Lei's impression, this person seemed to be the person in charge of the Kamikaze Fleet and one of the several major forces that had formed an alliance with the Chongming Fleet.
"fart!"
After hearing this, Jiang Song said angrily: "Blue Star only has some old people and children left, and let's talk about the development of Mao's civilization!"
"At least our civilization is not extinct, and there is still the possibility of going back.
Just dive into the depths of this ocean and find out the secrets of hyperspace, then we can return to the original world!
Maybe there will be an explosive rise in the level of technology! "
"Oh, the family is gone, why are you going back?"
"That's right! No matter how high the level of technology is, can those who have died be resurrected?!"
"The Tia people must pay a heavy price for the reckless and evil deeds of their home planet!"
…
For a while, as Jiang Song's topic led to the battle, the meeting room was noisy.
Everyone has their own opinions.
"Okay, calm down!"
At this time.
Chen Yu stood up and pressed his hands to signal everyone to be quiet.
"A quarrel can't solve any problem, we all gather here to discuss a plan and make plans for future development.
Pure violence and resistance cannot fundamentally solve the problem.
As long as the major gathering places and outposts in this deep sea are still in the hands of the alien colonists.
Then we Blue Star people will never be able to gain the initiative and the right to speak! "
Meng Lei nodded.
Chen Yu's remarks came to the point.
In this deep-sea environment, only by mastering a stable living space can we be qualified to promote development and resistance.
Living under the control of the alliance all the time, the Blue Stars will always just bow their heads and work.
The most basic point is that you can't live in a submarine all your life, right?
"Captain Chen, what do you mean, let's find a way to create a gathering place for our Blue Star people?"
Someone asked.
"It's too much trouble to make one, and we don't have the relevant technology, equipment and talents, so we can just grab one and get it once and for all!"
Some people have come up with more radical ideas.
Chen Yu shook his head and said:
"It's not realistic to grab one and build one!
We are just now in contact with the civilized polity of this planet, and many things have not yet been understood.
Whether it is technology, environment, way of life, the state of the various forces, etc...
Everything is still only on the surface.
therefore…"
After a pause, Chen Yu glanced around and said:
"I think the first thing we need to do now is the overall basic development, and the second is the collection of intelligence data.
Only when you have a firm foothold and understand the situation can you make further plans!
Thinking too far in the long run is unrealistic. "
For Chen Yu's more pertinent suggestion, most of the people present agreed.
Enron also added at the right time:
"In addition, in addition to the two points mentioned by Captain Chen.
We should also focus on the cultivation of technical personnel, as well as research and investigation in the field of scientific research.
At the very least, we can't be blocked by these alien natives one day in the future, and the card owner's lifeline.
Even if we leave these natives, we must be able to live unfettered in this alien ocean! "
An Ran took a deep breath, swept the audience with her big eyes, and said solemnly:
"Everyone, living is the foundation!
Whether it's resisting the seizure of power, or diving deeper to find a way home.
It's all based on being alive!
Only by living can there be hope! "
Hearing this, most of them nodded silently.
What Enron said was realistic, although somewhat idealistic in some respects.
but.
The population base of Blue Star is here, and there must be many researchers who have come through.
Only by researching technology on your own and breaking the basic technology monopoly of alien colonists can you go further.
It is not enough to have a blueprint alone.
The basic framework must be thoroughly researched, so as to realize independent research and development on the basis of the current Alien technology.
Only in the future can the Blue Stars be free from shackles and truly control their own destiny.
"But…"
At this time, the leader of the Knights stood up with a frown and said:
"We don't have enough space and equipment to carry out the cultivation of technical talents or scientific research.
Having said so much, it is still empty talk in the end! "
Dislav of Winter Fleet shook his head and said:
"At this stage, we can recruit and screen these technical talents first.
Then let them infiltrate various fields of Xier City in the name of work, and take the opportunity to conduct some one-sided research.
When the time is ripe in the future, we have also developed a certain foundation.
Then find a way to let them do their own research. "
Dislav's voice fell.
Meng Lei, who never spoke, suddenly stood up and said:
"If you want to seek independent development space, it may not be so troublesome."
"Huh? Commander Meng means..."
Meng Lei cleared his throat and continued:
"In this alien ocean, there are a lot of outposts and gathering places.
Many of them are now obsolete.
My pirate ship was found in an abandoned outpost.
We could just take an abandoned outpost and use it as our base.
All kinds of facilities are ready-made, which can save us a lot of trouble. "
Speaking of this, Meng Lei changed the subject and said again:
"Of course, these abandoned outposts may not be too safe, and the reason for the abandonment is unknown.
If you want to completely clear the occupation, it is not so easy, and everyone needs to work together! "
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.
Dislav stroked his beard thoughtfully, nodded and said:
"Commander Meng gave us a new idea.
Then in the next development process of each, try to pay attention to the information about the abandoned outposts and gathering places.
In the future, we will put them together and choose the best ones. "
Just when everyone nodded, An Ran frowned and said worriedly:
"I think the idea may not be realistic.
At present, the Alien Alliance does not even allow us to form private armed forces. How can we allow us to occupy an outpost and develop steadily and independently? "
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Even Meng Lei just ignored this question.
Next, everyone conducted a discussion on this matter, but there was no unified result.
In the end, Chen Yu sighed:
"Forget it, let's keep this plan for the time being. Let's focus on exploring intelligence and self-development as the main core!"
After a brief pause, Chen Yu faced the crowd and continued:
"Due to the problem of space tides, the Alien Alliance has now limited our possibilities to explore deeper seas.
Therefore, everyone's primary goal now is to make money as soon as possible, and then replace the submarine.
Relatively speaking, the resources in the shallow waters are too poor.
And after so many years of mining by the alien colonists, the surplus of various resources is even more negligible.
If we want to seek better development, we can only go to deeper waters. "
Hearing this, An Ran suddenly smiled lightly.
Looking up at Meng Lei, he teased:
"Commander Meng's luck is really good, those of us have to work hard to earn money, and then go to change submarines.
You are lucky, you just touched one, and even skipped the initial primitive accumulation stage.
It looks like you have to run ahead of us again this time. "
Meng Lei smiled and said, "Hey, fluke, fluke!
We are also in the middle of a lifetime, and it took a lot of hard work to get such a submarine.
Don't you know how many monsters were in that outpost at that time..."
…
Next, everyone made detailed plans for their respective development routes.
and agreed.
A regular meeting is held here every week to count the progress of development and the intelligence collected by each.
Finally, around eight o'clock in the evening, the first meeting was successfully concluded.
The major fleets have clarified the direction and unified the development policy.
A good foundation has been laid for that unknown future.
In the end, the meeting ended, and everyone left the meeting point one after another.
When we go, we have not chosen a unified route.
They took a detour, for fear of being seen by those alien natives.
Meng Lei, Chen Yu and Wang Qi were the last to leave.
On the way back, Meng Lei asked Chen Yu:
"Captain Chen, what are your plans for the future?"
Chen Yu sighed and said:
"The Alien Alliance does not allow private armed forces.
In this kind of environment, even the original major fleets had to act in secret.
It is not realistic for me to try to rebuild the fleet now.
so.
That's it for now, let's stabilize the development of the Chongming fleet first. "
Hearing this, Meng Lei was instantly overjoyed.
If you can keep Chen Yu, it will definitely be a big help in the future!
Regardless of management ability or overall situation, Chen Yu has made considerable achievements.
In the next development process, it can help the Chongming fleet to avoid many detours.
"welcome!"
Meng Lei enthusiastically grabbed Chen Yu's hand and said happily:
"In the future, Captain Chen will need to pay more attention to the development of the fleet, but I will leave it to you!"
Chen Yu turned his head and glanced at Meng Lei, and said with some confusion:
"Why do I feel like I'm on a pirate ship?!
You, the commander-in-chief of the fleet, seem to want to be a hands-off shopkeeper and dump all the burdens on me? ! "
"How can it be!"
Meng Lei changed his words and said:
"However, those who can work hard.
Captain Chen, you have more experience than me, and your skills are better than mine. I have to call you Brother Chen in private, so you have to work harder to get our fleet up and running! "
Speaking of this, Meng Lei patted his chest and said:
"I'll leave it to you in terms of management and development, I'll be in charge of the charge, and leave the money and resources to me!
We have a clear division of labor~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Let’s have a good time on this alien planet! "
Chen Yu smiled helplessly, shook his head and said:
"Okay, let's put it that way, I'll take charge of the behind-the-scenes work, and leave the rest to you, and I'll just let it go!"
"make a deal!"
Meng Lei was overjoyed, and a stone in his heart finally fell.
At this time, Chen Yu was walking and suddenly said:
"By the way, what are your plans next?"
After a pause, Chen Yu said again:
"I asked Wang Qi to count the current fleet members list, and there are 543 people who are willing to stay in the fleet and develop together with us.
A group of people were sacrificed on the road before, and after many people arrived at the gathering place, they expressed their desire to develop independently and no longer rely on the fleet.
For these people, we can't force it.
Most of the remaining 500 people are relatively grateful and do not have many independent thinkers.
I just want to live a good life with the fleet.
Have you figured out how to arrange these five hundred people? "
Meng Lei took a deep breath, thought about it for a long time, and said:
"Brother Chen, these people screen out the high-end technical personnel in the team according to what we discussed at the meeting just now.
Let them find a counterpart job in the gathering place to make a living, while slowly investigating.
the rest.
They each went to the city hall first, received some less dangerous bounty quests, and began to gradually accumulate primitive accumulation.
On the other hand, I'm in charge of tackling the big head.
Let's work together first, make more money, and build a few submarines that can advance to the deep zone.
The rest, let's see how things develop. "
