My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

"Where is your lord from? It's strange. We have never seen any news about the Mineral Island Alliance on the World Channel..."

"Yes, anyone who joins our territory cannot use the game panel, so it is normal for you not to see the message."

"Aren't you even allowed to use the game panel?" The doomsday madman was stunned for a moment.

"What about the route? You won't even let you choose the route, right?"

"That's not true. Our rules are there to protect residents, not to restrict development."

Hu Xiaolin patiently explained that he was worried that the two of them thought that the mining island alliance was too squeezed, so they were not allowed to use the various chat functions in the game panel.

In fact, the daily life of the hard-working miners on the mining island is not as terrifying as the rumors outside.

Because the ore almost always exists in the open pit, the danger is almost impossible to talk about until the open pit mine is dug out.

The only thing worth mentioning is that I am a little tired and need to work at least fifteen hours a day.

But this is not much different from the intensity of work elsewhere in the wasteland.

As long as the daily food supply can be guaranteed, it is definitely a job that ordinary survivors would envy.

"The reason why they are not allowed to use it is because ordinary people say things that are not serious or serious. Some people dare to say anything just to brag. They would like to put our territory and those of superpowers, and even with Su If we compare it to the territory of God, tell me, if you let these big mouths go to the World Channel, who will deal with them if they cause trouble?"

The situation Hu Xiaolin mentioned is common in World Channel chats.

When trouble comes, those braggadocios slap their butts and leave, leaving a lot of mess behind.

Especially since the Mineral Island Alliance owns such a large area of ​​high-value minerals, it is even easier for others to covet them.

But then again.

"There should be territories that trade with you, but I haven't seen these people talk about it?" Spicy Iron Hammer was a little curious and did not hide the doubts in his heart.

"That's because no one wants to share good things with others!"

At this moment, a loud and solid reply came from a distance.

He squinted and saw a tall, tall man in his early 18's walking not far away.

The big man wore a faded denim jacket on his upper body, a black T-shirt that had been washed out and faded, and a pair of wear-resistant khaki overalls on his lower body, with the trousers tucked into a pair of old military boots.

There was a trace of perseverance and vicissitudes on his face, and his deep eyes revealed calmness and courage.

The apocalyptic madman's eyes focused on the old-fashioned climbing rope hanging around the opponent's waist. This thing looked both practical and full of wild power, so much so that the big man's mental outlook was completely different from that of ordinary survivors.

"I am Hu Shulin, currently the deputy captain of the Alliance's Second Security Team." The big man stepped forward and glanced at the huge frigate parked at the dock without revealing any trace, his expression showing a bit more caution and respect:

"On behalf of the lord, I would like to express my deepest welcome to the friends who have come from afar. Please accept our warmest greetings. Thank you for your hard work on the road!"

"You're welcome, Captain Hu."

The two nodded slightly, and from each other's mental outlook, they could probably confirm that this Mine Island Alliance was real.

Ordinary survivor gathering places simply cannot cultivate such talents.

In other words, this kind of talent doesn't bother to stay in ordinary gathering places and run around for the most basic life.

"We can invite you inside if it's convenient, or if you're worried, we can get on your boat."

Pointing to the nearly a thousand people gathered at the pier, Hu Shulin said with a headache.

The territories that come to trade these days are at most a dozen small sampans or two or three wooden cargo ships. If you see more, no one will be curious. After all, they are still in the field of civilian ships.

But such a large armed ship is really unheard of and unseen.

"Then I'll trouble Captain Hu!"

They did not refuse each other's warm invitation. They also wanted to take this opportunity to take a good look at the gathering place outside and see what level of research and research it had developed.

Hu Shulin nodded, turned around and led the way, and the group began to stroll on this island, which was mainly used for living.

As they progressed further, the unique features of this gathering place gradually emerged before their eyes.

Taking Mengyue Territory as a comparison, if the first impression given there is that poverty is mixed with chaos, chaos is wrapped with madness, and madness reveals helplessness.

So the first impression this gathering place gave them was that it was orderly and vibrant.

The streets have been cleaned cleanly. Although the buildings on both sides are made of wood and stone as the main materials, each one is of the same standard, built according to unified drawings, and looks very neat.

There are even small gardens opened in front of some houses. If you don't pay attention, you might think you are in Hope Town.

As he walked, Hu Shulin introduced various public facilities in the gathering place, such as a two-story building not far away painted white: "That is our health station. Although the equipment and medicines are very limited, our The medical staff are very conscientious and have rescued many people with various methods. Many survivors who were passing by were even injured, and we were willing to rescue them.”

The two looked from afar and saw that there were indeed several medical staff in uniform busy in front of the medical station, with serious and focused expressions on their faces.

"What about the price? How much do you charge for a treatment?"

When mentioning this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Hu Shulin's face: "That...it should be quite expensive, after all, the health station is self-financing. If there is no income, wouldn't the medical staff be starving?"

The charges were not clearly stated, but both of them understood immediately that the price of a treatment should be very expensive.

But this is also true. In the modern developed conditions, many people cannot afford to see a doctor.

Not to mention coming to the wasteland with more difficult conditions, that is, Tianyuan Territory currently has few people to achieve partial free medical care. In the future, the fees should still be collected. At most, a certain reduction will be set according to the talent level, and major factories will provide medical insurance for employees.

Passing through the area near the dock, the buildings behind are inevitably scattered because they were built earlier.

Even when going to the next area, several pieces of arable land were opened up in the middle by taking advantage of the flat terrain.

After the disaster, many residents in the arable land are working hard.

Hu Shulin explained: "Although planting on the island is not a good idea, everyone understands the importance of self-sufficiency. Therefore, we have also opened up a lot of farmland to grow various vegetables and food, hoping to gradually improve our living conditions in the future and reduce the demand for external materials."

After the farmland, it is the workshop area on the island.

Here Hu Shulin did not lead the two to visit in detail, probably considering the factor of avoiding suspicion.

However, after only a few glances from a distance, the two could find the actual industrial level of this gathering place from the details.

Probably the level of the Middle Ages?

Mala Tiechui noticed that the division of labor in the workshop area was clear, with special areas for different crafts, such as forging, carpentry, textiles, smelting, etc., and each area had special craftsmen busy, using various tools and simple mechanical transmission equipment.

In addition, the two also noticed some more advanced equipment, such as turbines and wind-driven machinery.

Although these equipment are simple, they represent the pursuit of industry by the Mining Island Alliance, and they are not like other human settlements that muddle through.

"Not simple, the lord here seems to be a powerful person."

The two thought to themselves at the same time, and followed Hu Shulin through the workshop area and came to the last residential area.

When the group crossed the street, many residents cast curious eyes.

Based on the current average level of the wasteland, few settlements can extend their development tentacles beyond the territory, and few outsiders can travel long distances, especially those who are dressed so fresh and bright.

They showed surprise and envy on their faces, and some even whispered.

Hu Shulin seemed to have long been accustomed to such reactions. He smiled and waved to the residents, and then continued to lead the two forward.

After walking through several streets, they came to a small restaurant.

Although the restaurant was simple, it was clean and tidy inside.

The owner of the restaurant greeted them warmly and asked what they needed to eat.

Hu Shulin ordered a few wild vegetables, and then explained to the two: "We are short of supplies here, and the food is relatively simple, but these wild vegetables are all grown by ourselves, and the taste is pretty good."

According to the way of handling in general gathering places, they may ask the purpose of the visit and take them to see the lord.

But this mining island alliance is different, and it obviously has a set of reception rules that are unique to other territories.

The two were not surprised, and after a few polite words, they sat down at the table.

"Captain Hu, your development speed is not slow, it is faster than some territories with hundreds of thousands of people we know."

"That's right. Although we only have 180,000 people here, they are basically honest people who are willing to work hard. Those lazy survivors will be driven away after a few days."

"Hey, after they were driven away, didn't they expose the news of the Mining Island Alliance?"

"It's useless to expose it. Haha, not everyone's speech on the world channel will have influence. What's the use of a few people's speech? Unless you have so many points that you can swipe the screen on the channel every day, it won't attract any attention." Hu Shulin heard something from the words and thought about the initial doubts of the two.

"You were wondering why the gathering place that traded with us didn't reveal the information, right?"

"It's actually very simple. It's just two words."

"Benefits."

Hu Shulin smiled, not like a deputy captain in charge of public security.

This is indeed the case.

Before the appearance of the Dragon Fairy River, the Mining Island Alliance had not yet been established, and six different gathering places occupied this mineral-rich area.

Only after the appearance of the Giant Dragon Immortal River did the area become divided by the water.

The original area of ​​the gathering place was divided into islands.

The minerals scattered on the surface were also concentrated and turned into mining islands.

Therefore, the lords of the six gathering places decided to form a mining island alliance to unify the outside world.

However, the six gathering places are still autonomous in private, and the managers of each island are the previous lords.

The current Tiantie Island is the previous Tiantie territory.

Hu Shulin is the captain of the security team of Tiantie Territory and the top figure in charge of the armed forces of the entire territory.

"When ground transportation was inconvenient before, it was useless to tell others. No one would be tempted by a territory occupying a mineral-rich area. After all, this stuff can't be eaten. If no one buys it, it's useless to mine more."

"Now that transportation is convenient, our output is very limited. The more people know about this place, the less semi-finished ore they can buy at a low price, so naturally they won't tell others about it."

"So that's how it is." Spicy Hammer nodded in understanding.

"Then how much is your output, what level can it be smelted to, do you have high-forged iron, forget it, is there a detailed price list, our territory needs all kinds of ores."

"Uh... this..." I didn't expect Spicy Hammer to be so direct. A series of questions directly confused Hu Shulin.

In the past, those gathering places came to buy, and they had to go to the mining island to investigate.

After finishing the work, they have to go back and report to the lord, and they will not pick up the goods until the second or even third trip.

This is why Hu Shulin did not take them to see the lord first when they came to the Mining Island Alliance.

"Then you eat, I will call the supply department to come over, in the workshop area, where we came from."

Realizing that a big customer might come, Hu Shulin did not care to continue entertaining.

He hurriedly apologized, turned out of the door and ran to the workshop area, and sent someone to notify the manager.

Among the six islands, the minerals produced by Tiantie Island have never been stable and of low quality.

If it is ranked, it may only be fourth or even fifth, which directly leads to the fact that most foreign buyers will not give orders to Tiantie Island.

Therefore, if you want to get orders, you have to save the country in a roundabout way and start from other aspects.

For example, better service attitude, lower supply price, and more diversified trading methods.

"Dude, who's in there? Captain Hu seems to take it very seriously?"

Outside the restaurant, several ragged survivors came over, curiously poked their heads out and asked.

The guard at the door glanced at him and didn't want to answer, but he didn't expect the other party to hand him a white steamed bun.

Swallowing his saliva, the guard took it calmly and put it in his arms.

The rule on the island is that you can't accept items from outsiders, so as not to destroy cooperation and leave an impression of greed, but it doesn't say that you can't accept items from survivors on the island.

"It's an outside guest." The guard member whispered: "Don't think about mixing with them. Did you see the iron boat at the dock? They are not short of people!"

"Uh...Haha, I'm just asking, where are they from? I haven't heard of such a strong dragon in our southern part?"

"Where are you from?" The guard frowned slightly.

"It seems to be Mengyue Territory, right, that's the name."

"Mengyue?"

...
