Chapter 24 Supply Mall
Chapter 24 Supply Mall
"As for the price, how about we calculate it based on the market price seven months ago?"
"A set of geothermal generators that can generate 300 kilowatt-hours of electricity has a factory price of around 2.5 million yuan."
"Considering that your generator is more advanced and is more difficult to install, I can give you a price of three million and a half million per unit."
"You can use this 3.5 million to exchange for corresponding supplies from us at the market price seven months ago. For example, cement, gasoline, diesel, medicine, food, etc."
Ye Luoshuanghua sent out a lot of messages in one breath.
From those contents, it can be seen that he seems to have a mature trading method for doomsday environment.
"Seven months ago?"
Su Wu first noticed this particular time. He recalled it carefully and found nothing special happened at that time.
However, since Ye Luoshuanghua emphasized this date, it is obvious that it must be a landmark time node.
After pondering for a while, Su Wu suddenly asked a question.
"Did you realize seven months ago that the world was going to end?"
"You do not know?"
Ye Luoshuanghua seemed a little surprised.
He paused for a moment before continuing to type.
"It's no secret."
"The Federal Academy of Sciences confirmed seven months ago that there would be two extreme climates: a hot wave and a cold wave."
"It is just to maintain social stability and not to make it public to the general public."
Ye Luoshuanghua said it lightly, but behind this light-hearted statement that was not disclosed to ordinary people, are hundreds of millions of people displaced and their families broken up along the coasts of several continents around the world.
If they had known the news earlier, even if they were unable to build their own shelters, they could have avoided the dangerous coastal areas early on and settled down inland calmly, just like Su Wu. They would not have fled in a hurry when the danger came, and their life savings would have turned into ashes, or they would not have been able to escape and could only sleep in the depths of the cold sea.
Su Wu's lips moved, but in the end it just turned into a sigh.
Strictly speaking, although he obtained information through different channels, he was also a beneficiary of the secret. The start-up capital for building the shelter came entirely from selling real estate in coastal cities. He was not qualified to blame others.
"Give me a price list from seven months ago."
"If it's not a big deal."
"Let's do it at this price."
Su Wu suddenly lost the desire to bargain. Of course, this was also related to the fact that Ye Luoshuanghua's offer was quite fair.
Speaking of scarcity, all supplies are scarce in the doomsday.
Although exchanging materials according to normal prices is not 100% fair, it is better as a reference than arguing with each other and hoarding goods.
"it is good."
"Ask me directly if you have any questions. It's best to make a decision before tomorrow morning."
"Many of our places are seriously short of electricity and are waiting for your generator to help us out."
Ye Luoshuanghua sent two documents over.
After receiving it, Su Wu clicked to check it out. He found that one was a price list and the other was a purchase limit and price adjustment instructions.
This is normal.
Although the overall exchange is based on the market price seven months ago, the cost of maintaining some things, such as live poultry, pigs, cattle, and sheep in the shelter is much higher than in peacetime. It is not appropriate to calculate it based on the original price.
At the same time, the supplies in a shelter are limited, and it is impossible to take out all the supplies for exchange. The so-called restrictions on the quantity and types of purchases are actually equivalent to the number of goods that can be put on the shelves. In essence, it is still barter.
Of course, despite the seemingly cumbersome restrictions mentioned above, the actual price given in the document is still quite sincere.
Basically, the price of live poultry is only about three times higher than normal. The price of medicine is not much different from that of normal pharmacies. The price of cement is as low as 20 yuan per bag, almost the same as the ex-factory price.
There is also sugar, salt, alcohol, oil, etc., and the prices are also quite low.
And the quantities available for purchase are enormous.
“Is this the official inventory?”
“——It’s amazing.”
Su Wu's eyes swept through the price and inventory lists, and he was so jealous that he didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings.
Compared to the time when he bought a few dozen kilograms of sugar and was warned, the amount of sugar available for purchase in this document is calculated in tons. It seems that there is so much that it can't be used up.
It took me more than half an hour to carefully go through the price list from beginning to end several times.
Su Wu made a judgment in his mind.
Ye Luoshuanghua had no intention of cheating him. Not only was this transaction feasible, but the profit was also much higher than the excavator he had planned to sell before.
A rare opportunity.
"Let's complete the deal tomorrow."
"Two geothermal generators, a total of seven million worth of supplies. If we exchange them all, we should be able to catch up with the richest group of small shelters in Jianghe City."
While thinking, Su Wu added a new task to the engineering robot in the Mechanical Manufacturing Center. He asked it to stop the decoration work on the third underground floor and make two geothermal generator models first.
Upgrading two geothermal generators requires 26 survival points.
The amount was not small, but for Su Wu at the moment, it was barely within his tolerance.
The materials exchanged for them are enough to expand the size of the shelter exponentially. At least for now, it is not worthy of its name. There is only a mechanical manufacturing center for engineering robots and an empty three-story underground breeding factory, which can be truly built.
Contacted Ye Luoshuanghua again to discuss some details.
Agree on a time and place for delivery.
Su Wu stretched and felt a little tired.
Seeing that it was getting late, he got up and went to the living area to take a shower, intending to have a good sleep and get enough energy to deal with tomorrow's tasks.
The night passed peacefully.
The next morning.
Su Wu woke up to the simulated morning light emanating from the bedroom ceiling.
He sat up and was stunned for a while.
After the remaining sleepiness faded away, he reached out to pick up the tablet computer on the bedside table and checked the log records of the shelter.
The log shows that there are still three full hours left to complete the second geothermal generator model.
"I got up a little early."
Su Wu yawned, thought for a moment, and didn't fall back to sleep. He used his tablet to remotely give instructions to the artificial intelligence, asking it to control a construction robot and drive a medium-sized truck parked on the ground to the shelter of the heavy knights.
There were so many things going on yesterday that I almost forgot about the charging transaction with the Heavy Knight.
Now that there is still plenty of time, let's just solve this problem first.
