Chapter 089 Drones dispatched
Lu Xuan first bought out all the nutrients and primary energy stones, and then bought a four-meter kayak that appeared today.
The audience who were busy showing off their delicious food in the live broadcast room took a moment to take a look at his operation and couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh".
[Hasn't the host already got several kayaks? Why buy another one? They won't be used in the hottest season.]
Lu Xuan said, "Just because it can't be used during the extreme hot season doesn't mean it can't be used during the next catastrophic period."
Old viewers recalled the sequence of disasters shown on the Weather Companion and suddenly understood.
[Then the anchor should need more than one, or seven or eight kayaks, right?]
Lu Xuan hummed, "Probably forty or fifty ships."
Small models that can only be used for temporary travel can be ignored. If you want to use it as a temporary residence, you should choose a kayak that is at least three meters long and relatively stable and not easy to capsize.
If there are many people in the family, you can directly choose the largest six-meter model, or a round or octagonal boat.
Lu Xuan has six kayaks that meet the requirements. Assuming that every household in the village needs at least one kayak, he still needs about forty more.
Taking into account the possibility of damage to the kayaks, we need to prepare some spare ones, so buying fifty is just the right amount.
In addition to manual boats, you must also prepare some power boats, which will require a total of about 600,000 to 700,000 points.
Lu Xuan would refresh the discount column about ten times a day, and he could basically guarantee that he could buy one or two ships every day. If he was lucky, he might be able to buy three ships a day.
There is still more than a month until the end of the extreme hot season. If all of them can be purchased with discounts, based on an average of 20% off per ship, at least tens of thousands of points can be saved.
One hundred thousand points is not as much as the gifts he received in a day nowadays, but the kayaks were exchanged for the villagers. For them, supplies worth one hundred thousand points were already an astronomical figure.
He was not saving for himself, but to help the villagers save.
What about the streamer? Do you also use a kayak?
[How is that possible! Haven't you noticed yet? The anchor is a pure enjoyer. If she can enjoy the best, she will never let herself settle.]
Lu Xuan remained noncommittal. "If I have the ability to use better, of course I'll choose the better one."
Providing kayaks for the villagers is because it is within their affordability, but it does not mean that they have to lower their living standards.
He will definitely keep a few kayaks for himself, but as a means of transportation for him and his family during the next disaster period, he would first choose a yacht that is more functional, spacious and sturdy.
Lu Xuan's eyes fell on a small yacht with an exquisite appearance.
The original price of the yacht is 400,000, and today's discount is 10%, which means 360,000 points after the discount.
At best, this yacht is a style that only rich people would use to go out to sea for a few rounds. It only has a very small living room and a deck for sunbathing, and is not very practical.
Of course, this is not the one Lu Xuan wants to buy.
What he wanted was a family yacht of at least twenty meters in length that could comfortably accommodate at least four or five people.
After several days of observation and comparison, Lu Xuan has already found a more suitable model.
The original price of this yacht is 2.4 million yuan and it is 25 meters long. In addition to multiple residences, it also has kitchens, restaurants, warehouses, lounges and other facilities, and its functions are very complete.
So far, this yacht has been refreshed twice, with discounts of 20% and 10% respectively.
The probability of getting a 50% discount is very low, and a 60% discount is relatively difficult.
But the more expensive the product, the more points you can save by making a difference in the discount.
Lu Xuan’s goal is to buy it at a discount of at least 30%, which is 1.68 million points.
In addition, if a special situation occurs, there is a high possibility that dozens of kayaks will get separated when traveling together, so it is best to have a boat that can carry everyone.
Lu Xuan also has a favorite style of this one.
It is a medium-sized yacht with a length of 30 meters, or it would be more appropriate to call it a passenger ship.
Although it was only five meters longer than the one he had chosen, it was a dedicated passenger boat.
The space on the ship is mainly composed of guest rooms, all of which are standard double rooms. With reference to ordinary university dormitories, they are equipped with bunk beds to make rooms for four or eight people. Not only can they accommodate the entire village, but there is also a little bit of surplus space for supplies that cannot be stored in the space, or for emergencies.
The model Lu Xuan uses for himself is still somewhat of a luxury model, but the one he shows to the villagers is a truly affordable model. The original price is only 1.3 million, but with a 20% discount, it can be bought for just over one million.
If you can get a 30% to 40% discount, you can save even more.
After having an idea of which ships to purchase next, Lu Xuan began to look at hovercrafts.
Didn't the host previously say that hovercars are flashy and useless? Why did you change your mind again?
Lu Xuan said: "A two-seater hovercraft is indeed not practical for me, but..."
His finger gently tapped the extended vehicle that had just appeared, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly: "A floating bus... is very practical."
Since we already have water transportation, how can we do without land transportation?
To understand how rugged the roads were in ancient times, just recall the journey to the provincial capital.
Earthquakes continued after the disaster began.
According to the Weather Companion, thousands of earthquakes of varying magnitudes will occur worldwide over the five-year period.
Huge post-earthquake cracks appeared in Lianyunlu Village, and there were even more ground cracks in other places.
When encountering such terrain during travel, you either have to return along the same route or spend a lot of time taking a detour, and you don’t know what troubles or other difficulties you will encounter along the way.
Things are different with the suspended bus.
No matter whether the road is rugged or there are bottomless cracks, you can move forward unimpeded.
The key is that the price of the suspended bus is much cheaper than other suspended vehicles.
A double-carriage bus with a passenger capacity of 100 people costs only one million yuan, while a single-carriage bus costs between 300,000 and 500,000 yuan.
Buy two suspended buses and you can carry the entire village.
Lu Xuan calculated the total price of the goods he wanted to buy.
The total cost of all the necessary transportation is nearly six million points, and after the discount it is almost four million.
His current total points are only over 3.6 million.
Lu Xuan sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, the more points you earn, the more things you want, and you spend money like water.
Before, he thought that he would be able to buy a spaceship soon, but now it seems that by the time he can buy a spaceship, the points he actually earns will probably be enough to buy two or even three spaceships.
That's all.
Buying a spaceship is a matter for the future, so let’s draw today’s blind box first.
The products drawn today are the same as usual, with daily necessities accounting for the majority, and the rest are mostly duplicates of those drawn before. The few new products are mainly small appliances, such as coffee machines, sweeping robots, etc.
After drawing the blind box, Lu Xuan chatted with the audience for a while and then ended the broadcast.
-
The harvest on the first day was pretty good, but it didn’t include the beef that Lu Xuan wanted most.
So the next day Lu Xuan decided to change direction and continue searching.
The water in the mountain lake does not only flow in the direction where Lu Xuan came up yesterday, but also flows slowly in two other directions towards the water source at the foot of the mountain.
Lu Xuan wants to choose one of these two directions to search.
Simply relying on luck to choose a specific direction is too inefficient, and visual enhancement can only see so far.
This is when we need a secret weapon - the drone!
It is still shipped in a silver blind box. It is more exquisite and compact than some modern drones, and there are no visible propellers. It looks more like a mini spaceship than a drone, which looks very cool.
In addition to basic functions such as taking photos, recording videos, following shots and transmitting data, the shooting distance can reach hundreds of kilometers.
This is the basic model in the mall.
The advanced version and the flagship version not only have no distance restrictions at all, but the more exaggerated space version can even be used in space, and it has already become a spacecraft.
Lu Xuan was not interested in what kind of sophisticated and advanced technology was used inside. It was enough for him to know that this thing was very useful in ancient times.
Lu Xuan started the drone and controlled the remote control to fly it towards the target direction.
The terrain in the south of the two directions is similar to where the villagers live. Dense forests occupy most of the area, and the rest are boulder forests and a small number of hilly areas.
Bison live on grasslands, so Lu Xuan actually had little hope in this direction. The drone first flew westward.
As far as he could see, the vast expanse of grassland was almost entirely covered. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to...
Seeing the black appear on the screen, Lu Xuan zoomed in with his fingers to confirm, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
“Found it!”
…
Half an hour later.
Lu Xuan put away his hoverboard and looked at the herd of bison that were grazing listlessly not far away.
The bison have dark fur, thick limbs and well-developed muscles. Although they are not as big as the mutated cattle in the apocalypse, they are much larger than domestic cattle, like walking mountains of meat.
When seeing the moving beef up close, Lu Xuan's mind unconsciously emerged with various beef recipes that he liked to eat.
Tomato beef brisket, boiled beef, beef stew with potatoes, stir-fried beef with scallions, black pepper steak, radish and beef bone soup...
As he thought about it, Lu Xuan couldn't help swallowing.
If you calculate it, he hasn't eaten beef for almost two years.
The herd of bison that Lu Xuan discovered was quite large, with a rough count of more than sixty individuals.
Except for three smaller calves, the rest are adult cows, each one is fat and strong, and looks particularly delicious.
Lu Xuan seemed calm, but he stared at the bison eagerly for a moment, and then casually glanced diagonally across and to the right.
With such a large group of bison gathered here, there are naturally predators.
Hiding in the bushes diagonally opposite, with a little hair showing from time to time, are a group of gray wolves, and hiding on the right is a strong adult tiger.
Lu Xuan had no interest in wolf meat or tiger meat, as they were not tasty. He also did not need to rely on them to earn money for supplies. Before the bison discovered him, he took action and used his ice ability to instantly freeze the lower bodies of more than 20 bison close to him.
When the cattle noticed that their companions were trapped, they suddenly became chaotic, with angry and panicked "mooing" sounds coming one after another.
The wolves and tigers were afraid of going hungry today, so the moment they realized something was wrong, they seized the opportunity and launched an attack.
