Chapter 120: The Ambition of Annexation
Chapter 120: The Ambition of Annexation
Su Wu offered a price.
I can't bear it.
But his compassion for ordinary people would not be extended to Zhou Xiwu, the son of an official.
Take advantage of this opportunity.
Even if we can't swallow up the entire large shelter in one breath, we must at least occupy a small half of it first.
"it is good."
"We can discuss all of this as long as you can come to support us as soon as possible."
Zhou Xiwu didn't even think carefully about the intention behind Su Wu's request, and agreed immediately.
Now he can hardly protect himself.
No matter what he ceded, it was not as important as his own life.
On the contrary, many of the people watching in the group frowned.
Everyone was a little surprised at Su Wu's appetite.
Trading rights may seem insignificant.
In fact, it is enough to affect the foundation of a shelter's existence.
Don't say anything else.
Using this name alone, they colluded with the management of the shelter, or even just some guards, to resell supplies.
Then, with the help of trading channels, some criminals are smuggled out.
It is easy to empty a large shelter of its supplies and make more profits.
And this is just a simple and crude approach.
If they were even more ruthless, they could screen personnel and deliver weapons through face-to-face transactions with lower-class residents.
It is quite doubtful whether this large shelter will still belong to Zhou Xiwu in the future.
What Su Wu wanted was not some petty profit, but to directly annex a large shelter.
However, although Su Wu's purpose was apparent, no one exposed it to his face.
They have no relationship with Zhou Xiwu, so there is no need for them to jump out and play the bad guy.
Besides, only Su Wu can do such a thing.
No one else has a fleet that can transport supplies at will in today's surface conditions.
There is no conflict of interest with Su Wu.
"Then I'll send someone out now."
"Probably. We'll be there in half an hour."
Got a positive response from Zhou Xiwu.
Su Wu opened the map, made a rough estimate, and gave a deadline.
Zhou Xiwu’s large shelter is more than 30 kilometers away from Su Wu.
Not to mention the winding roads as we pass through the city ruins.
After half an hour, the car has almost reached the maximum speed where the accelerator can be pushed to the bottom.
The sixth underground floor of Su Wu’s refuge.
A temporary rescue team consisting of one engineering robot and four construction robots.
Grab your tools and some carefully crafted explosives and board a large truck that had already been moved here.
Then the large truck started to move.
With the help of the lifting platform, slowly drive out of the shelter.
Unlike other engineering vehicles, the body of a large truck has been individually insulated and reinforced.
Nature has great resistance to extremely hot climates.
Therefore, even if no additional cooling system is installed.
But as long as the original structure is slightly modified, it can still be driven in today's surface environment.
This is also the reason why Su Wu has the confidence to interfere in the affairs of other shelters and reap excess profits from them.
More than 20 minutes later.
A large truck arrived at the entrance of Zhou Xiwu's large shelter amidst a cloud of dust kicked up by its tires.
Then, with the help of two shelter members guarding the door, he drove into the shelter.
"The temperature is 52 degrees."
"The control is much better than that in the official residential area."
After manipulating the engineering robot to get off the carriage, Su Wu used the detector he carried with him to scan the surrounding environment.
The fault tolerance rate of Zhou Xiwu's large shelter is obviously much stronger than that of the residential area which only serves as a branch module of the shelter.
Even the most important electrical equipment was destroyed and the central air conditioning was shut down.
Now, more than half an hour later, the temperature is only 20 to 30 degrees higher than normal.
It won't cause too much damage.
But if it's later, it's hard to say.
"The generator is over here, please follow us."
No politeness.
After they recognized that the group of robots coming down were the main force of the rescue.
The shelter manager who came to greet us immediately ran to the front to lead the way.
For the convenience of management and to avoid provoking hatred from others.
The managers did not wear heat-insulating clothing, nor did they have any portable cooling equipment.
This means they have to face the high temperatures inside the shelter today.
Their inner hope for the rescue team to rescue them is no less than that of ordinary shelter residents.
Su Wu controlled the engineering robot and led several construction robots behind him, following them all the way into the depths of the shelter.
The residents of the shelters encountered along the way.
Almost without exception, they did not continue their original work.
They leaned against the roadside or sat directly on the ground, their expressions more or less gloomy and desperate.
There was such a big commotion in the shelter.
Even though the top leaders have been deliberately blocking the news, these grassroots people still know some of the truth.
But they are powerless and can't change anything.
I can only stay here quietly and try to reduce physical exertion.
Try to take a longer break.
And after seeing Su Wu's robot team appear.
Their numb eyes immediately became lively again.
Some shelter residents who happened to be lying on the road did not have time to stand up and get out of the way.
Just roll to the side immediately.
Try not to cause any obstacles to these robots.
The robot itself is the crystallization and embodiment of high technology.
In the eyes of these shelter residents.
Their appearance means that a top maintenance team has arrived here.
The outside world and the shelter's top leaders have not given up on them.
As long as they hold on a little longer, they will have hope of survival.
Su Wu silently observed the performance of these residents along the way.
Once again, I experienced it myself.
These people are not just a string of numbers in the report that can be discarded at will, but living lives.
Came to the power room.
It is called a power room, but in fact it is a hall covering an area of nearly 300 square meters.
In the hall, two huge thermal power generators occupy the positions on both sides of the hall.
But they are not in good condition at this time.
One of them had been destroyed by an explosion not long ago, leaving a bunch of severely deformed and twisted parts, leaving only an empty shell barely standing.
The other one still maintains its intact appearance.
But judging from the sparks and black smoke that occasionally came out of it.
The situation is also not optimistic.
Su Wu controlled the engineering robot to the generator where the flames had not yet been extinguished, and cut open the outer shell for a thorough inspection.
It was discovered that the situation inside the generator was more serious than what was seen from the outside.
Basically, repairing it would be almost as difficult as rebuilding a generator.
