This Game is Too Real

   "Why did you choose such a strange name?"

   "Is it weird?"

   "No, Greenhouse Farm... I'd rather say it's over the top, it's a bit strange."

   "Hey! Can you blame me? Hey, I've already written and handed in the application form, and I just remembered that I forgot to pick a sultry name."

   "By the way, what are you going to be called?"

   "QQ Farm."

   "Pfft."

  【Makabazi】found【Edge Row】contacted on the forum. The two little players wore animal fur coats, carrying wooden bows and javelins, and set off towards the east gate to open up wasteland.

  Although Chu Guang was very curious about why they went to the east gate instead of the west gate, carrying a wooden bow and javelin instead of a **** and axe, but after thinking about it, he finally ignored them.

evening.

  Chu Guang was too lazy to cook, so he went for a walk around the North Gate and found that Yaya had stewed a pot of venison and mushroom soup, so he put a silver coin on the table.

   "I want two bowls."

"okay!"

   Yaya, who took the bowl, filled two bowls of broth with a spoon full of energy, with a sweet smile on his face, and brought it to Chu Guang.

   "Be careful with the heat."

   The players with bowls next to them saw it, and instantly felt that the meat in the bowls was no longer fragrant, and they all shouted.

   "Boss Crow, you are biased!"

   "Yes! It's not gentle at all when you give it to me!"

   "The manager has a big leg in his bowl! I see it!"

   "That's right, why is there a piece of meat in our soup!"

   "Yes! And it's **** meat!"

   "There should be no distinction between good and bad food! My wife said it!"

   Crow's face flushed, and he hurriedly made a quibble.

   "What is **** meat! Me, am I that kind of person?"

   Besides, what's wrong with eccentricity?

   Is there a problem with pleasing NPCs? Dare you say you haven't licked it? Hehe, "Dear Managers" are so embarrassed to say me?

   Anyway, I triggered a hidden mission!

   "I don't care, unless you give me another bowl!"

   "I want to eat fart!"

  Chu Guang smiled like an old father, ignoring these noisy little players, turned around and passed through the north gate, and went to Little Sister Xia Yan's weapon store.

   After several rounds of renovations and alterations, the current weapons store has completely changed.

  The original mud wall has become a regular red brick wall, and a layer of ash has been plastered inside and outside, and a layer of wooden floor has been laid on the ground.

   If it was the small dilapidated house from before, it would have been crushed by the snow long ago.

   It can be seen that the players feel more distressed about Boss Xia than they are. Due to several hand-painted CG pictures on the forum, she is about to become a mascot.

  No, it should be said that it is already?

   When Chu Guang came here, Xia Yan fell asleep on the table, and there was a pile of freshly prepared bullets in the wooden basket next to him.

   Now the players are playing happily at the north gate, but no one comes here to disturb her.

  Chu Guang did not wake her up, but placed the bowl gently beside her.

   Then he found a chair in the room, sat down beside the brazier, added a firewood to it, and sipped the bowl of tender and delicious venison and mushroom soup while cooking.

   Sparkling sparks on the fire.

The aroma of    broth gradually filled the house.

   The nose buried in the crook of the arm moved slightly, Xia Yan, who slowly woke up, looked around with a blank face. When he saw Chu Guang sitting in the room, he instantly woke up.

   Looking at Xia Yan who woke up, Chu Guang said casually.

   "You've really loosened up a lot lately."

   After being touched for so long, I haven't found out. I woke up after smelling the smell of meat. If this is in the wasteland, I'm afraid I won't survive two episodes.

   Lazy was caught, Xia Yan looked embarrassed, like a child who did something wrong, buried his head and dared not look at him, and whispered.

   "I, I slept for a while after I finished. I didn't slack off... When did you come in?"

   "Just now," looking at Xia Yan's nervous appearance, Chu Guang laughed and joked, "Are you so nervous?"

  Xia Yan hesitated for a long time without speaking.

  Chu Guang thought for a while and said.

"Starting from tomorrow, I will pay you every day...well, 10 silver coins, which will be settled every month and the next month. I will give you an indicator every month, mainly about the production of ammunition and weapons. .You can treat it as your task. After completing the task, you can get a bonus of 10%~30% of your monthly salary. In addition, your bonus will also be related to the profit of the weapon shop."

   Xia Yan asked quickly.

   "What if it's not finished?"

  Chu Guang shrugged.

   "It doesn't matter, anyway, there are 30 revolving rifles in stock, and there are more than 4,000 rounds of ammunition, which is enough for the time being."

The   Bloodhand Clan has been wiped out, and now the only threat in the area is the mutants on 76th Street, but they seem to have their own problems to face, and they haven't set their sights on Linghu Wetland Park for the time being.

  The sudden cold winter is both a risk and an opportunity.

  This natural barrier will buy the residents of Vault 404 a valuable development time. Food, fuel, and building materials are the key. In contrast, the demand for weapons is not so urgent.

   Peeking at Chu Guang, Xia Yan whispered.

   "...Actually 14 to be exact, 16 were sold some time ago, and there are more than 2,000 rounds of ammunition."

  Chu Guang didn't care.

   "It's okay, there's still a lot of junk in the inventory, enough for those little cute newbies to play for a while."

   "Why are you so good all of a sudden... You actually pay me salary." Xia Yan asked in a low voice.

  In Boulder City, only when those big people need them to die, will they suddenly show kindness inexplicably.

  Although the possibility of finding a buyer in winter is very small, Xia Yan is still a little scared, after all, this man has left a deep impression on her.

"Because I think it's almost time," Chu Guang said after thinking for a while, "not just you, including old Luca, everyone who works for me will get paid, more or less. You don't have to take it as a reward, this It's the part you deserve for your labor."

   In short, you need to stimulate consumption.

  It is a bit difficult to just rely on players to consume the things produced by the players themselves. Let NPC properly purchase the things produced by the players, which can promote the players to expand production.

  Xia Yan nodded with a vague understanding.

   She actually wanted to say, if you really want to pay her, you can use those white plastic sheets, and you don't need a lot, just one a day.

   But she is more cowardly and can only comfort herself.

  Actually silver coins are pretty good too, 10 silver coins... I heard that only two chips can be exchanged for one silver coin, so if you think about your daily salary, isn't it a 20-point chip? Monthly salary of 600 chips!

  In Boulder City, an assault rifle only has 150 chips, and one month's income can sell four guns, which is a proper middle-class citizen!

  Black hehe...

   This dream was doing, Xia Yan amused himself.

  Chu Guang ignored the demented expression on her face, and continued talking to herself.

"Besides that, you get a 'budget' from the weapon shop's 'profit', which is used to issue quests to the 'players'. Like I taught you, you can direct them to do some Things that you would have to do yourself. Like loading the shells with gunpowder, oiling the receivers, or even visiting the store for a while..."

"You can freely use your imagination for this part of the content. Anyway, you know more about these details than I do. Your VM can help you edit it. If you don't understand anything, you can contact my assistant Xiao Qi through the VM. Do something to make your own job easier.”

   Sitting upright and listening to Chu Guang's words, Xia Yan didn't dare to move or interrupt.

   But the bowl of venison and mushroom soup was so fragrant that she couldn't help but glance at it several times, swallowing her saliva again and again.

   noticed her small movements, Chu Guang, who had explained the matter, smiled and said in a relaxed tone.

   "You can figure out the rest for yourself, and I won't talk nonsense. That bowl of venison and mushroom soup is my treat. Hurry up and drink it while it's hot. There's still a piece of venison in it."

  Xia Yan immediately picked up the bowl and devoured it.

   When she put down the bowl, she had a happy expression on her face, and she complimented her mouth full of oil and soup.

   "Woooooo is so delicious!"

   "You can go to the North Gate after get off work. It's getting more and more lively there. I don't think you've ever been there."

  Chu Guang stood up from the chair, placed the empty bowl on the wooden table beside the brazier, and counted 10 silver coins and placed them beside the bowl.

   "After you finish drinking, help me wash it later."

   "Thank you for this time."

   Until Chu Guang walked out the door, Xia Yan, who was holding the bowl in his hand, didn't recover for a long time.

  “!”

   What word did this big devil say? !

   She couldn't remember if she had ever done it before, but she knew very well how ruthless and hard-hearted this man's methods were.

   is not only ruthless to the enemy, but also ruthless to his own people.

   She had seen it with her own eyes. He ordered the bodies of the fallen soldiers to be sent into the furnace to be burned with the enemy, without even leaving a grave.

   Such a ruthless man, who suddenly shows his favor, must have some intentions!

   However, for some reason, Xia Yan suddenly felt that he was not as scared as before.

how to say?

   When this man threatens her, or throws herself out to fend for herself, she does find it scary.

   But it seems that after getting along for a while, he never really kicked himself out.

   Slurping the soup in the bowl, Xia Yan couldn't think of anything to say for a while.

never mind.

   Anyway, he didn't do anything excessive to me.

   This venison is delicious.

   For the sake of inviting Uncle Ben to drink the soup, I will help him wash the dishes together later.

  …

After    came out of the weapons store, Chu Guang found old Luca and explained the salary to him.

   Having been a slave for most of his life, when he heard that his master planned to give him money, old Luca had a blank expression on his face.

  Chu Guang was too lazy to explain what salary was, so he simply said.

   "You should treat it as a reward."

   "Save some food or use, go to the woodworking hut to buy some furniture, support the business of the 'players', or save it to build a decent house for yourself."

   Hearing the word reward, Old Luca was moved to tears, and wanted to kneel at the time, but remembering that the owner had said that people in Vault 404 were not allowed to kneel, and immediately put his right fist on his chest.

   "Thank you for your generosity! Master."

   If thinking like this would make him feel a little more comfortable, Chu Guang would be too lazy to correct his thoughts.

After    explained the work, Chu Guang then asked about the training of the two new warehouse managers.

   It has to be said that these survivors who have experience as serfs have a natural adaptability to the service-type positions of "warehouse management".

   After all, for them, at Brown Farm, these positions were only available to the superiors among the serfs.

   If we go one step further, there are only servants, butlers, and soldiers of the farmer.

   But those people can no longer be regarded as serfs, not even slaves at all, they are more like servants with status. Most of them inherited their father's business, and there were only very few opportunities for serfs to be selected to work in the master's house.

   Therefore, both of them cherished the opportunity in their hands very much. The learning speed was quite fast.

  Chu Guang was very relieved about Luca's work attitude. After a brief inspection, he turned around and returned to the sanatorium.

   Just when he was thinking about whether to avoid the hard place and play the game he just finished, or go to the third floor to stay with Xiaoqi for a while, there was a sudden commotion in the direction of the north entrance.

   A similar scene always feels a bit familiar.

   I saw a young player with a broken leg, lying on a stretcher, being carried by two other players, hummingly trotting in from the north gate.

  Chu Guang recognized him.

   If I remember correctly, it should be afternoon.

   This guy followed [Makabazi], the two of them went out from the east gate carrying wooden bows and javelins, and sang happily in their mouths.

   At that time, I was still thinking, why did they go from the east gate, did they go the wrong way. Now that I think about it, 80% of the time it's not the wrong way, but that I ran to death from the beginning.

  Chu Guang had a weird expression, turned on the system, and opened the player list. Sure enough, he saw that Brother Ba's icon was grayed out, obviously it was cold.

   stepped forward and looked at the [Edge Swimming] lying on the stretcher, whose consciousness was shaky, Chu Guang asked with a frown.

   "What's your situation?"

   "Moths! A lot of moths! And one moth is so big, almost as long as my arm! Their teeth are like scissors!"

   The expression on his face as he stroked the water on the edge was not sure whether he was excited or frightened, but he was very excited, and he gestured with his hands in the air.

"We went to the community to the northeast of Wetland Park on the map, where there is the ruins of an artificial greenhouse! We originally planned to see if we could find some useful things in it, but after a lot of effort went in through the safe passage, just now As soon as we walked to the exit, we saw a long cocoon hanging on the net! We were stunned at the time, and just wanted to study what it was, and then the makaba at the front was gnawed by the moths that came up !"

   [Construction Boy and Brick], who was carrying a stretcher, kept listening, and when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help swallowing.

   "Gnaw, gnaw?"

"Yes! It's just gnawed!" He took a breath from the edge, ignoring the bleeding wound, and continued excitedly, "Seeing that he couldn't escape, Brother Maca took off the VM and threw it to me, I I didn't dare to look back, and rushed to the safe passage desperately! As a result, I was almost rushing out, but I was bitten by two big moths on my legs..."

"Fortunately, these insects are not cold-resistant. I rolled and crawled out of the safe passage, but the moths behind didn't chase them out, and the two big moths that bit my legs didn't have much strength. I stabbed a few times with a dagger. The knife was finally killed, and even this leg was only half eaten."

  It's okay to eat only half of it...

   The edge of the water said vividly, but Chu Guang's brows jumped when he heard it.

   This is thanks to the fact that the pain beyond the limit was blocked. If it was another survivor, I was afraid that the pain would be too painful to breathe after the first bite.

   "Devil Moth."

  Chu Guang took a deep breath, glanced at his **** broken leg, and immediately issued a terminally ill diagnosis.

   "You're missing a leg and even bones. This is not an injury that can be cured by a training cabin. Without the feature of 'regeneration of severed limbs', no matter how strong your resilience is, it's useless, do you understand what I mean?"

  The most humane way is to kick off the assembly line, lock the login, and then send it directly into the furnace.

  It doesn't really matter if you die or not. Without the access of the conscious body, the cloned body is an empty shell without mind, and it does not affect the recovery of active substances.

   The edge paddle of course understood the hint of the manager, this is the old tradition of Vault 404, so the speed of light nodded.

   "I know! I know, my respected administrator, but if I have to die, can you let me choose a way to die?"

   This is a reasonable request.

  Chu Guang nodded.

   "No problem, how do you want to die?"

  The edge of the water is embarrassed to smile, and said shyly.

   "I want to try it, the righteous gallows at the door...hehe, I'm a little curious."

  Chu Guang: "..."

   It was the first time he heard such a strange request.

   Worth it.

   I can keep a whole corpse, and it is convenient for me to recycle it.

  …

  Just like this, he was just carried into the edge of the base for paddling, and was carried by the two players to the gallows outside the north gate.

   "Wait, let me think of a cool line, I want to die like a hero-"

   "Stop talking shit, let's go!"

   "I Karma—"

  The two players quickly dealt with it, and sent the fringe dude with a crooked neck to the corpse.

   His gear and VM will be kept in a locker in the buffer room, and three days later he will be a hero again.

  Chu Guang went to the third floor of the outpost and found Xiao Qi.

   "The nest of devil moths was found in the northeast of Linghu Wetland Park."

   "Devil Moth?"

   "An insect-type xenogeneic species, please help me mark three skulls on the map first. This thing is not very easy to deal with."

  Xiaoqi tilted the camera.

   "Do you want to prohibit players from entering that area?"

   "It's not necessary, just a warning," Chu Guang thought about it and said, "The restrictions including 76th Street can be lifted, but the danger signs remain."

   "I'm curious how these players will handle this tough puzzle."
