Vol 20 Chapter 23: planning


After the second Zerg attack, the base of the Broken Blade team launched a new round of vigorous development.
The new round of construction is mainly based on the production of forts and troops. After seeing the horror of the Zerg, the Broken Blade team has not dared to expand at will, but the priority defense system, first use the existing base scale advantage.
The mammoth beast broke through the wall and gave everyone a wake-up call. It is not enough to have a wall, but it has to be reinforced.
The reinforcement of the 85-kilometer wall is 8500 points for each upgrade.
Of course, you can’t forget the living quarters and garbage disposal centers of the workers...
The major production lines are almost always running, producing, and most of the proceeds from the energy beads are converted into points, and then become the various types of Terminator Corps with actual combat power.
New problems have also come – workers are not enough.
At the beginning, as long as everyone builds, 3,000 workers can work overtime to complete.
Nowadays, with the development of the base, more and more functional building facilities appear. If the functions of these building facilities are to be exerted, workers must be put into operation.
The new round of construction also requires workers.
In order to avoid being dragged down by overtime pay, Shen Yan easily refused to let everyone work overtime.
The result is that the amount of work has not decreased and the efficiency of the workers has decreased.
Enlarging more workers can improve work efficiency, but in addition to more salaries, more supporting construction is needed; more supporting construction requires more funds; more funds require more Energy converters; more energy converters require more sub-bases and workers; more sub-bases require more workers and soldiers...
An infinite loop.
The troublesome thing in this pile makes the sinking head big.
"Nearly seven energy beads per day, 66,000 points a day, the result turned out to be... not enough!" Hong Lang's face was smashed.
"I still like to kill monsters and have money." The fat man answered very honestly.
Honestly, it’s better to pick up the money, and you have to do some base development. This is tossing, and millions of shots are not expected to be splashed, really powerless.
"This is no way." It is still gentle and understanding: "To fight against such a powerful Zerg, the strength of the adventurer alone is not enough, only to the sea of ​​the sea, there is no sea without a base."
In fact, this is also the situation that most bases often face. The necessary logistical subsidies are more inferior to the development of the base than the Zerg attack in some respects, so many times they have to wait.
But Shen Yan is not willing.
For him, sitting there and doing nothing to kill time is a waste, the development period of a year is not too long, the efficiency of workers can certainly make up for the time disadvantage, the Zerg attack will also offset the efficiency advantage.
Therefore, every day of the development stage is precious and cherished.
"It's not good, just go to the wilderness. The Zerg has just played, and it won't come again in a short time." King Kong proposed.
I thought about it.
Going to the wilderness is the choice that the generals will make when they confirm that they have nothing to do for a short time. After all, once they leave the simulated world, they can no longer communicate with the simulated world. You don’t know when the Zerg attack is likely to miss it. aid.
In addition, each time you leave, you have to pay a certain amount of points. It is impossible to come back from time to time, so you must take good care of it. Fortunately, the strength of the Broken Blade team is tyrannical. It should not be a problem to get rid of two or three people. The development of the base is becoming more stable, and this can begin to send people out.
Taking into account the needs of the base, the wilderness finally sent Honglang, gentle and gentle King Kong formed, time ten days, ten days later must be rushed back anyway.
The next step is to pray that the Zerg will not attack anyway during this time.
But it turns out that this time good luck did not care for them, pinning hope on the enemy, but also destined not a good idea.
Gentle on the fifth day they just walked, the Zerg came, and it was coming.
Still 70 nests, this time the main direction has become a broken blade base - they love to play the biggest base, not allowed to develop to the point of threat; they love to play the smallest base, because it is best to bully.
The Broken Blade team was almost full of resistance. The three warships that had been squatting were also launched. The sinking cards were not used in the Vientiane Palace, but they were forced out by the Zerg. Finally, the fourth ship did not come out until Zhou Yiyu started again. The pedigree turned and killed a low-level mother's nest before they struggled to repel the zerg.
At the same time, the base also paid another heavy price after the first attack.
Due to the short interval, insufficient energy reserves, the defensive sky was broken, two energy converters, two energy supply centers were destroyed, many were damaged, and a large number of new turrets on the wall were destroyed.
The three arsenals were destroyed and could not be repaired. One of them was the artillery factory. The Terminator line was finally saved, but the Terminator died a lot.
Fortunately, the Vientiane Palace did not come over and lost the four bases. They were completely blind and unable to grasp the movement of the Broken Blade team.
However, watching the night back to the base before liberation, everyone still wants to cry.
When the chairman of the union said that the residential area was damaged, but in any case must be repaired this month, Shen Yan simply resisted not killing the bastard.
But after that, looking at the mess in this place, Shen Yan finally laughed.
"In any case, what is left now is more than what was left by the second attack? This means that we have not wasted this time."
With tears in laughter!
This is the case in life, and it is always growing up in the repeated toss.
Whether it is ordinary people or indulging in them, they must work hard to adapt to this new environment.
So a new round of repair, construction, and development, life has become monotonous and simple.
The good news is that they didn't pay for it all.
When they came back softly, they brought hundreds of thousands of points of money.
Everyone turned these benefits into points and actively built them. Finally, at the end of the second month, they completed the construction of the core base.
At this time they already have twelve arsenals ranging from medium to small, two Terminator production lines, and when they arrived in the third month, they added another 2,000 workers, 1,000 soldiers, and the Second Corps. Nearly 3,000 members have made the base population grow to 10,000.
A new living area has been established, and more supporting facilities have been built. People’s laughter has begun to appear inside the base, and it seems that a small city is developing from scratch.
Of course, the result of all this is that they are still in a state of incompetence. After two months, they have not gotten the benefits of a penny. All the points are invested in the development of the base.
After learning the last lesson, Shen Yu decided to go to the wilderness to grab a loan, but this time it was directly limited to 30 days. Simply let the three people who gave the trip give up the base defense again, saving time wasting time, waiting for the right, etc. Come, wait for us to leave, you are coming again.
Of course, it is the Broken Blade team that has the courage to release half of the adventurers to steal money.
After all, strength is the foundation of development.

Shen Hao was still busy in the office this afternoon.
He is conceiving a new step in the expansion plan.
For two months, the base struggled in the process of reversing and resisting. A membrane of the guardian was broken and replenished, replenished and re-circulated, and gradually developed and expanded in the endless destruction.
Now that the energy supply center has increased more than once, the defensive intensity has also increased, and the satellite base expansion plan that has been stranded has finally been put on the agenda.
It was at this time that the guards came to report and Meryl came to visit.
After suffocating, she did not ask her to come in, and Meryl had made a big stride.
She didn't wear a military uniform, but she only had a casual dress. It looked quite charming.
"How come there will be empty today?" Shen Yu is very excited to call Zhou Yiyu.
Meryl smiled: "Just come and see, and if you dare to call the surname Zhou, I will immediately turn around and go."
"...well." Shen Yan spread his hand.
"So, don't you ask me if this guest is going to your base?"
"This is a military secret."
Meryl's face pulled down.
Indulge in helplessly surrender: "ok, ok, I will not take you to take it... Look at the money you borrowed twice."
Strolling on the newly built Champs Elysées, Meryl looked at the development and changes of the base with amazing eyes.
The Champs Elysées is the commercial street of the future base, the name is gentle - shameless plagiarism.
Although the road is still empty, there is only one row of unfinished shops, but the prototype of the shop can be seen.
The road is clean, clean and free of dust.
After the completion of the garbage disposal center, more than ten unmanned cleaning vehicles are automatically cleaned on the road every day.
Some trees and flowers have been planted on both sides of the road. The seeds are brought back from the island. They can be pleasing to the eye and can be used as raw materials for medicine. Of course, some are too precious to be placed there, and some workers are not so clean. When you are poor, you can steal it. If you are prosperous, you can’t say it.
From time to time, some workers walked on the road, and occasionally they would say hello to him.
As long as the wages are paid, these workers are still very good at speaking.
At the end of the Champs Elysées is the training ground, which is similar to the training structure of the city. It just lacks some advanced p treatment, of course, it can be built, but it is more expensive. The training ground is divided into two levels. The lower level is the gymnasium of the workers, and the upper level is the training ground for the generals.
There is also a clothing store and a coffee shop opposite the training ground. It is also the only place of business. It is handled by Zhao Linger and Shirley. The goods are all exchanged from the system. The price is very cheap, but the clothing store is mainly selling rough cloth. This makes Zhao Linger very disappointed, she is learning to design, she designed some clothes, but there are few women in this base!
She is still good, the coffee shop is even worse, the business door can be ridiculous.
Because the workers said they needed a bar instead of a coffee shop.
This made Shirley very disappointed.
Finally, the beauty of the two girls can attract guests, but the host also wants to make every guest go out.
Adventurers are really not suitable for business!
"I didn't expect you to make this beautiful." Meryl exclaimed: "But why do you want to do this? Don't you think this is a waste of time? These things can't help you resist the Zerg."
"We have an old saying in China that we can plant a phoenix tree to attract the phoenix." With Meryl wandering all the way, Shen Yan replied: "If you want to develop business, you must have an atmosphere suitable for business development. Elegant environment can not Raising the defense of the base can make the workers here comfortable and let the businessmen come in. Yes, tell you a little secret, although every month workers will have extra requirements, but if you ask for it, take the initiative to improve the living environment. Conditions, in advance to meet their expectations, then this part of the project in the extra overtime only charge the basic cost, do not charge extra overtime, because they know that this is for their own ... Of course, I did not expect that they do not like cafes, The petty bourgeoisie really does not allow the working people."

You mean you want to develop business? But what business is good here?
Meryl was surprised:
At best, some businessmen come over to sell some goods to your workers. The income of the workers is limited, and the taxes you collect will never be It may be comparable to your salary."

Only commercial taxation is certainly not enough to pay workers’ wages, but what if it is sold outside?


External sale?
Meryl became more and more surprised:
What do you sell outside? All the bases here can produce it yourself.

"That may not be the case, at least the living conditions of their workers may not be improved. Most of the generals only met the basic needs of the workers, and some were not even satisfied. We can make some light industrial products for sale, but these are not big ones. The important thing is the ore!"
"ore?"
"Yes." Shen Zhenzheng said: "Don't forget why we chose Tianwei IV as a human base in such a bad environment. Isn't it because there is enough ore here? Although the Star Alliance is a country, it does. Existence, the system star is the alliance star, there are also people, there are production and living needs, the population is tens of millions, the construction needs are hundreds of times larger than ours, they also need various resources."

So you want to sell the ore to the league?

"Yes. Sold to the league, the system does not accept this, but the alliance can receive, I have inquired, they really need it!"

What about transportation and mining costs? These require manpower.

"We don't need us to transport, there are businessmen. They know how to maximize the benefits. I don't even need to mine. There are too many veins in Tianwei. I just need to enclose and then announce all the things in my territory." The minerals are mine. I think it is necessary to pay the fees and taxes when I come to mine."
Meryl was stunned: "Then you can take the opportunity to make further expansion. Can expansion not only allow you to get more energy to transform resources, but also to get more mineral resources?"
"Yes." Shen Hao nodded, anyway, this thing is not awkward, just be generous.
"Oh my God, you really are a downright businessman, you can do business wherever you go." Meryl called out his forehead.
Faced with the threat of Zerg and the expansionary effects brought about by logistical pressure, Shen Yu had to take a different path.
Countries in a peaceful era will choose to expand externally when they cannot develop internally.
Indulging in the opposite direction, the outside develops when the outside cannot expand.
In any case, Shen Yan will not let it idle.
Since knowing that the business district can collect taxes, Shen Wei has listed the development of business districts as a plan, because this is the best internal development tool.
With the business district, he can save a lot of workers' salaries by taxation. If he can sell some more minerals, he can even get more income and become another financial pillar outside the energy converter.
Of course, this plan is not only for him. Every planet has a special output. The problem is that there are very few that can develop to this step.
The vast majority of commercial developments were made by the generals in the later stages. When they started making money, they also went away.
Therefore, Shen Yu decided to complete the basic commercial construction in three months anyway, put into operation in the fourth month, and grow stronger in the fifth month, so that he might still earn half a year of money, otherwise it would be meaningless to work harder later. .
But this plan also has its problems.
Meryl said: "Priority in developing business is not infeasible. Some people have done it before, but it is not like you are going to sell mines. This development plan has the biggest problem you have thought about?"
"Do you mean war?"
War is the biggest threat to business development.
Like the nose of Singapore, a missile can make its stock market crash.
No businessman will be happy to buy and sell on the land where the war is frequent.
Therefore, the development of commerce has never been smooth.
In the past, the commercial development of the base was also to meet the needs of workers on the one hand, and to recover part of the funds on the other hand.
If you try to be big like Shen Yu, you really don’t see it. The success is even more.
For Meryl's rebuttal, Shen Yan sighed: "So if I can, I really want to talk to the Zerg, let us all live together peacefully is not very good? Investment is the key to the development of each city, and peace. It is the foundation of development. The Brokeblade team has never had territorial ambitions. We are a peace-loving base. We only want to improve the living standards of our people and let everyone live on Ankang days..."
"This is not funny..." Meryl rolled her eyes.
Sinking and shrugging: "Well, no kidding, I can understand your reminder, but the premise you mean is that the base is destroyed. As long as the base is not destroyed, there will be nothing, right? The Zerg will not play any siege tactics. They are always unable to attack and withdraw, and never fall in love."
"Then you think you can always hold it? How do you do it? How do you let the merchants believe? You know that as long as your hood is destroyed once, even if a bug enters the base, it will cause damage to the base. The merchants are not as brave as the workers, even if they die, don't expect someone to come here to do business."
"That may not be, 300% of the profit is enough for the merchants to risk the gallows."
"The problem is that you can't give them so much profit."
"I can give, at least temporarily. In the stage when they still don't trust me, I can open the base for free and provide duty protection. All the fees are allowed to default. After I confirm my strength, I will charge slowly... they No delinquency, I can."
"How to confirm?"
"Of course, relying on strong forces, businessmen have eyes, they will analyze the strength of the base and their safety. In addition, the Broken Blade team built a thousand square kilometers of core base during the first expansion, and Developed a complete base within two months, tell me Meryl, can you do that?"
Meryl smiled and shook her head: "I can't do it, and I haven't seen anyone who has done it."
The development of two months, although let them suffer from the pain, but also let the broken blade team grow rapidly.
During this time, for the sake of the base, it can be said that the heart is broken. Usually, three-dimensional images are opened, and the brain is divided into tasks to deal with affairs. Even Zeus is shouting headaches...
With 800,000 yuan to enter, extort other bases, attack the Zerg attack to go to the wilderness to steal money, and then squeeze yourself so crazy, Shen Yan believes that all this down, if you have not developed others, it is really unreasonable.
At present, the development and construction of the base itself has been basically completed. Further development is more defensive firepower. More factories have only quantitative changes and no qualitative changes. The development of the commercial district that Shen Wei is now doing is something that the generals will not do at all, so in terms of the depth of the base itself, few bases are comparable to him.
Even if Meryl has the support of the Inferno sect, as part of the joint base, her base's internal environment development is far less than indulging. She just expanded the two rings more than Shen Yu. The price is that the perfect conditions in all aspects are far from enough. The workers have already started to work, and the efficiency has dropped drastically.
"Then unless they have a better choice than me, they will definitely choose here, right?" Shen Xiao laughed.
"That's it. Well, I was convinced by you, but I want to remind you that the base of a war background, the income from taxation and sale of minerals is very limited. How much benefit can you get by expanding business? Can you bring it?" Do you earn 100 million yuan a month? Even if it is only one million points, it is not as good as the income you have occupied for a few days."
"Of course, I didn't expect to make a fortune on it. Business development is only a choice of benefits and supplementary income when it is temporarily unable to expand externally. After all, this part of the investment is actually not big. It is only time-consuming and hard-working because it requires too many packages. You must constantly plan, schedule, and schedule, but the actual cost is very low... This is all water and kungfu. Have you played a strategy game for Meryl? I mean StarCraft."
"of course."
"Then should you know the difference between professional and non-professional players? Professional players and non-professional players are confronted. The basic conditions are exactly the same. There is no difference in the resources of the arms. So what determines who is strong and who is weak? The key lies in them. Mastery of the details. Superb hand speed and technology, reasonable construction arrangements, resource arrangements, do every detail of the operation, little by little ahead, and expand the advantage through accumulation!" Shen Yan seriously:
"If we regard the speed of the game as the execution ability, the reasonable arrangement in the construction is regarded as the planning ability, and the operation technology is regarded as the personal strength of the adventurer, you will find that the game is actually no different from our current base construction. One month One million pairs of bases are indeed not many, but let alone one million, that is, 100,000 is also worth our effort to plan and work hard! Today I can earn 100,000 more, and tomorrow I will earn 200,000 more! And this extra money can be a guarantee for my continued expansion, so that its value is constantly expanding, isn't capital operation so?"
"The strength of the Broken Blade team depends on this accumulation! The completion of the standard base of ten people in two months depends on this accumulation! We will continue to rely on this accumulation until we completely put all our competitors in the brain. After! So we will not let go of any benefits that can be obtained, which makes us look a bit market-minded, but in this cruel and ruthless world, the market is a virtue!"
Meryl is speechless.
Speaking of this, Shen Yu suddenly took out the handheld computer: "This is the battle recorded by our computer, but because it is just a video recording, it is not comprehensive enough. But when the next Zerg attack, we will shoot in all directions. This battle. At that time, they should not return yet, we will only use three people to hold here, and completely defeat the Zerg and kill at least one mother's nest before the defensive sky is destroyed. Then we will record the heroic The scenes were sent to the entire league, letting them see the battle of our fighters and the great victories over and over again... they will believe us."
Meryl listened completely dumbfounded.
For a while she said: "Is this too high-profile?"
Shen Yu made a snap: "Low-key is never my style. People who do business are not famous. They are not afraid of being too high-profile. They have to speculate a few times. So let the world feel that I am invincible." I am not afraid to bear this fame, and I am not afraid of someone to challenge me. I don’t want to grab a few bases... If not, I think the reputation is still a little bit useful."
"...If you didn't do it in the next fight?"
"Then wait for the next battle." Shen Yan did not blush to answer: "The record is announced ~ EbookFREE.me ~ This is a choice, who will take the record of defeat to do propaganda?"
"...you are really shameless."
Sinking and laughing: "Okay, I have been open to you, now let me talk about your intentions."
He doesn't think that Meryl is really doing nothing to see himself.
Meryl replied: "I admit that your plan is good, and you have the ability to implement it, but there may be things that may disrupt your arrangement."
"how?"
"After another month, the Broken Blades Base will be full of three months of development. By that time, you will be notified to participate in the joint offensive."
This time it’s my turn to be dumbfounded.

Ps: Continue to work today, five more estimated no, three more should, maybe, probably, can.
