The negotiations went very smoothly. Qian Wu was naturally very happy to sign such a large contract. He immediately invited Li Xing to go to the industrial zone of the Sixth Street with him to visit the industries in the industrial zone. Li Xing naturally accepted the invitation and got into his car.
What kind of strength did this ambitious man who owned one-sixth of the Sixth Gang District have? Li Xing was also curious about this.
Since his ally wanted to show him his strength, Li Xing had no reason to refuse.
———
"This is my ammunition factory. There are hundreds of laborers working for me inside, delivering those metal gadgets to the good or bad people. We won't go in. The temperature inside isn't suitable for humans.”
Qian Wu pointed at the military factory that looked like it was in operation and proudly explained to Li Xing. It was not much different from the developers in the modern world. To have such a large military factory was indeed a sign of strength in the apocalypse. No wonder he was so proud.
"And this one too, but the products here are all expensive, such as the large-caliber fixed sentry guns on the outer wall of the street and the equipment on the inner wall.”
When they arrived at a factory that was obviously much smaller than the previous building, Qian Wu pointed at it with his finger that was holding a cigarette.
The apocalypse naturally had cigarettes. Alcohol could not be mass-produced due to the shortage of food, so cigarettes became the thing that most people used to relieve mental stress.
The burning tobacco here had a strong spicy smell, and not everyone had the habit of smoking. Radiation had brought uncontrollable mutations to all living things on Earth, but not all mutations were malignant. For example, this special tobacco could adapt to the soil of the wasteland like the mutated plants that could be seen everywhere. It could be grown on a large scale without high-end cultivation techniques, which was why cigarettes were not expensive in the apocalypse. Many survivors would plant a few in front of their homes, which could be used as medicine and cigarettes.
Li Xing naturally couldn't stand the spicy taste. Qian Wu laughed and expressed that he didn't mind using it. If he couldn't get used to it, he could just throw it away. In fact, this was all relative. When Qian Wu took the Chinese money from Li Xing, he also felt that the taste was too light and not satisfying.
"Oh? I'm also quite interested in this kind of automatic weapon. I wonder if it's convenient for Boss Qian to sell me a few?”Li Xing watched as an employee in a white uniform used a tablet to adjust the machine that was half the height of a person. He controlled the 360-degree rotating muzzle to aim at the target in the isolation room and poured out fierce firepower.
"Hahaha, of course, no problem. However, the production of this thing was really low. The Sixth Street had recently been updating the equipment of the northern checkpoint, and the orders were already two months away. I'll have to trouble Mr. Li to wait."
The two of them walked side by side in this high-tech factory. The female secretary called Lei followed behind them, carrying Qian Wu's briefcase in her hand. Along the way, the people bowed to the three of them, giving off the feeling of a leader inspecting a factory.
To be honest, the more Li Xing looked around the factory, the more shocked he became. This included the frisbee sized maglev drone and the half-assembled 2-meter-tall Gundam…
As Qian Wu said, the production of these things was very low, because facilities such as military factories were definitely the focus of attention during wartime. It might not be difficult to find a civilian production line from the wasteland, but it was a joke to find a complete military production line.
A few years ago, a military fallout shelter was discovered with a complete production line of firearms equipment. Unfortunately, the artificial intelligence system inside only recognized the people of the Pan-Asia Cooperation official organization and did not recognize anyone else. In the end, the block joined forces with several powerful survivor camps to attack. When they were about to break through the main control system, the central artificial intelligence system activated the self-destruct program and lost everything.
As a result, most of the equipment, including the armor that was similar to the Gundam, was handmade. Li Xing saw a worker holding a hammer-like object, slowly hammering the armor into shape. Some workers carefully assembled the tiny electronic components into the armor. Perhaps before the war, these processes were done through high-precision automatic production lines, but in the apocalypse, many things had to be done by hand.
Of course, the lack of manufacturing technology was only for complex equipment. The bullet assembly line was easy to solve.
Even so, the firepower that the survivors possessed was still unquestionable. No matter how hard a zombie's head was, it was just a bullet to the head. Even though the Death Claw's sharp blades could tear through light armor, there were still heavy tanks as its nemesis.
The question was, even with such powerful equipment, could humans not conquer those bloodthirsty mutants and zombies?
Li Xing was suddenly very curious about whether there were other more terrifying things on the wasteland. Although the monsters he had seen so far were very terrifying, they were still bound to be defeated by the organized human army.
"A portion of these equipment will enter my private armed forces, and a portion will be sold to the street army or other interested buyers. However, power armors were generally not allowed to be sold, and some heavy weapons such as heavy tanks and powerful electromagnetic railguns were also prohibited.
Unless the street council votes on the arms purchase bill, my factory will only start producing these difficult things.”Qian Wu didn't notice Li Xing's contemplation, but he continued to talk to himself. His words were meant to give Li Xing a warning. If Li Xing wanted to buy a power armor or a heavy tank, it would be difficult for him.
"Oh? So Boss Qian was an arms dealer?”Li Xing asked with a smile.
"Half. I also have a pharmaceutical factory and some real estate business in the inner circle. If Mr. Li is interested in buying a house in the inner circle, you can come to me, haha.”Qian Wu took a puff of his cigarette and said with a forthright smile. He casually took a ring-shaped arm guard from the table and threw it to Li Xing.
"Mr. Li, you're away all year round. Take the new nitrogen armor as my gift to you.”
Qian Wu waved at the soldier who was testing the equipment. The soldier immediately saluted and ran to the center of the isolation room. The soldier unfolded the nitrogen armor on his hand, and high-density gas ripples spread out from the ring in the center of the arm guard like a bowl.
Good fellow! It was simply a protective shield?
"Haha, I don't know the exact principle. In short, I'll leave the theoretical things to the experts to worry about. I only want to see the effect. Is Li satisfied with this?" Qian Wu waved his hand, signaling the end of the experiment. Then, the machine gun lowered.
"Satisfied, very satisfied. He wondered if there were any restrictions on the use of this thing.”Li Xing fiddled with it for a while before putting it away.
"There aren't too many restrictions. It's just that the energy consumption is a little high. The problem of the central spiral device overheating hasn't been solved yet. One point of energy was enough to activate this thing for about a minute. After using it for 10 seconds, it would start to heat up. After using it for a while, the crystals consumed would probably be more expensive than the cost of making it. Moreover... It was not very effective against optical weapons and particle weapons. Of course, it was quite effective against kinetic weapons. Of course, because the energy consumption of this thing was too high and its practicality was limited, there was no plan to install it on a large scale.”Qian Wu took a puff of his cigarette.
Li Xing, who was rich and overbearing, did not pay attention to the problem of energy consumption at all. He was very satisfied with this high-tech product.
"I didn't expect Boss Qian's military factory to have the ability to develop weapons.”Li Xing sighed.
" Haha, of course. The scientists under me are researching the application of this thing on power armor to see if partial armor can make it useful... " Let's not talk about this. Just leave this annoying thing to the experts. Haha, it's still the same. I only want to see the effect."”
