Chapter 131: A Bustling Super-Large Shelter
Chapter 131: A Bustling Super-Large Shelter
"did not expect."
"There are actually shelters built on the ground here."
Just browsed the forum casually for a while.
Su Wu felt that he had grown more experienced.
Chongzhou City has actually built a community-sized residential area on the surface.
Of course, due to limited time.
Most of the buildings in the residential area were urgently converted from old buildings and shopping malls.
But this does not affect their actual effectiveness.
In terms of safety and comfort, it is not much lower than the underground shelter.
Even because the field of vision is wide enough.
The residential area on the ground.
It also became the most prosperous commercial center and the place with the most expensive housing prices in the entire Chongzhou City.
Want to move in and live there.
It is necessary to pay a contribution value that an ordinary person may not be able to earn in his entire life, or it is equivalent to materials worth tens of millions before the end of the world.
On average, the price of a 100-square-meter house located in a residential area can be as high as the cost of building a small shelter.
"If after I buy this, there happens to be another major earthquake or typhoon—"
Su Wu shook his head, finding it difficult to understand the thoughts of those rich people.
It would be fine if this could be used to increase the chances of survival, but being willing to pay such a huge price just to be able to take a look at the decaying city in the apocalypse at any time can only be described as crazy.
And just then.
Su Wu suddenly discovered that there was a commercial activity pinned to the top of the forum area.
Gold seems to be mentioned.
He clicked in to check without thinking.
I immediately saw a long list of acquisitions.
This seemed to be a large-scale material purchasing event held by a pre-apocalyptic gold jewelry company.
They used gold to purchase unlimited quantities of medicines, tobacco, alcohol, and other daily necessities and industrial production materials.
The exchange rate given is also very good.
It is obvious that gold has limited use in the end times and its financial attributes are greatly reduced.
People have no confidence that the price of gold will remain strong.
This event doesn't seem to be very popular.
"There are options for purchasing conventional medicines and radiation protection coatings."
Su Wu checked the list and calculated carefully.
The things he brought with him on the base vehicle this time seemed to be able to be exchanged for about 10 kilograms of gold in total.
As for the cost, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, it’s definitely not as much as 10 kilograms of gold.
This was enough for Su Wu.
It has the golden scale in the golden daily task as the basis.
It can be predicted that in the future no material will be as precious and useful as gold and silver.
"Go ahead and give it a try."
I thought about it.
Su plans to go into the city to take a look.
It is hard to say what 10 kilograms of gold is worth to others, but to Su Wu, it means energy equivalent to that contained in 2.5 tons of coal.
The value is already so great that it is worth him taking a certain risk.
Increased the base vehicle's speed.
Soon, a checkpoint leading underground appeared at the end of the road.
"Are you coming from Jianghe City?"
“It’s still quite far.”
The staff at the checkpoint contacted Su Wu through the walkie-talkie.
Then after doing a simple scan and registration.
He then lifted the railing, indicating that he could go to the underground parking lot.
“How much is parking?”
Su Wu was not in a hurry to leave. He planned to figure out all the rules here at once.
“No parking fee.”
"But the maximum stay cannot exceed half a month." "If it exceeds this, there will be a fine."
The attitude of the staff was good and they seemed to answer all the questions.
"so good."
Su Wu was a little surprised.
Before the end of the world, many cities wanted to set aside half of their streets as paid parking lots. But after the end of the world, when underground space is even more precious, it is still free. This is a bit puzzling.
"Our chief said that it is difficult for vehicles to cross the city at this time."
"I can't embarrass you over such a small matter."
"We are all human after all."
When the staff member mentioned this, his tone was slightly serious. Obviously, in his mind, the prestige of the chief was very high.
"By the way, there are lethal weapons in your car."
“Remember not to take them out of the parking lot.”
"Otherwise, if they are stopped later, they will be confiscated."
Another function of the checkpoint is to scan incoming vehicles for contraband.
Gunpowder and weapons were not legal in the first place.
But the wilderness after the apocalypse is even more dangerous without weapons.
Therefore, Chongzhou City tacitly allowed visitors from far away to enter the parking lot with weapons.
However, they are still not allowed to bring weapons into the shelter.
"Thank you."
"I'll pay attention."
Farewell to the staff.
Su Wu drove the base vehicle into the underground passage behind the checkpoint.
This is also thanks to the fact that the underground passages and parking lots here are built quite spaciously.
Otherwise, it is built according to the standards of a normal underground shelter.
A vehicle of Su Wu's size might not be able to fit in.
Find a spot in the parking lot and park.
Su Wu put on a bulletproof vest printed by a 3D printer and reinforced with two survival points, and also took a suitcase of medicines and anti-radiation paint.
I plan to go through the underground shelter and head to the commercial area mentioned in the forum message.
And before getting off the bus.
He thought about it, and set the miniature mecha in the living room to a combat-ready state.
Thus.
Once someone tries to break into the base vehicle, or Su Wu is attacked.
The micro-mech can immediately counterattack or provide long-range support.
Although, judging from the time we have just come into contact with each other.
The impression that Chongzhou gave Su Wu was that of a prosperous city full of order and friendliness.
But there are always unexpected things.
It is always better to have an emergency plan than to be caught off guard.
Leaving the underground parking lot.
Su Wu followed the instructions on the sign.
After passing through several long passages and undergoing security checks again, we entered the official shelter in Chongzhou City.
“What a big place.”
The first view after entering the shelter.
Su Wu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
What appeared in front of him was a large square with a height of more than 30 meters and an area of 15000 square meters, equivalent to the size of two football fields.
The space occupied by this square alone is one or two times larger than the shelter that Su Wu himself had painstakingly expanded to its present state.
But here it is.
The purpose of this square's existence is merely to serve as a gathering point for materials and personnel.
At the edge of the square, you can see at least 10 floors above and below.
Every floor was crowded with people, and I didn't know how many people gathered there.
At least dozens of elevators are constantly transporting people and supplies.
Transport to different floors respectively.
