72: Wha…what? There’s a cannon? ! !
Train Captain Lu Yang: "Train Captain Wu, the Xinhuo Train has always been open for business, and we've long had a policy for pricing our goods."
"You don't have to worry about the things I sell you being more expensive than what others pay."
"I want to earn some resources, but I also want to benefit the Train Captains of Donglin Plain."
"Wang Hu, give Train Captain Wu a copy of our latest sales and acquisition lists; everything is clearly priced on them."
"If you find something suitable, Train Captain Wu, you can purchase it. If not, we can discuss it again next time. It's no problem at all."
As Train Captain Lu Yang finished speaking, Wang Hu, who was on duty with Yang Kui, immediately handed over a colorful, menu-like sheet of paper.
Wu Dabao took it and glanced at it, immediately finding the Ghost Killer Flintlock Rifle he wanted. The price wasn't expensive; it was within Xing Haiyang and Wu Dabao's expectations. A tier 1 rifle only cost 1000 units of tier 1 iron ore, a tier 2 rifle 2000 units of tier 1 iron ore, and a tier 3 rifle 4000 units of tier 1 iron ore.
4000 units of tier 1 iron ore converted to tier 3 iron ore is 40 units of tier 3 iron ore.
As long as a tier 3 iron ore deposit could be found, one mine could yield enough to buy hundreds of them.
It was still very cost-effective!
After all, this item could damage tier 3 anomalies and didn't require special ammunition.
The cost-performance ratio was extremely high!
The price of the Harvester Individual Grenade Launcher was the same as what the Xinhuo Train had announced at the Train Assembly previously.
A tier 1 Harvester Individual Grenade Launcher cost 200 units of tier 2 iron ore, a tier 2 Harvester Individual Grenade Launcher cost 400 units of tier 2 iron ore, and a tier 3 Harvester Individual Grenade Launcher cost 600 units of tier 2 iron ore.
Ammunition was extra!
Although this item couldn't deal with anomalies, it was incredibly effective for clearing ordinary zombies!
One Explosive Flame Bullet would incinerate a large area.
Previously, when thousands of zombies besieged the Giant Whale Train, a dozen Explosive Flame Bullet cleared a path instantly in front of the train.
It was much more cost-effective than heavy machine gun fire.
Items like meat buns and iced cola were also clearly listed on the manifest. Meat buns cost 2 units of tier 1 iron ore each, and iced cola cost 5 units of tier 1 iron ore per bottle.
Although they were more expensive than the food produced on their own train, their effects were special.
The description for the meat buns stated that long-term consumption could revitalize a man's vigor.
Iced cola was said to help one last three hundred rounds in a night of battle.
Damn, this was even better than the 'W' pills sold in pharmacies before the disaster.
Moreover, Wu Dabao himself and several of his subordinates had personally tried them, and indeed, after eating and drinking, they felt more energetic.
For this reason alone, it was worth buying a batch to take back.
Compared to weapons, meat buns and cola were simply too cheap!
However, apart from these three items, Wu Dabao could definitely make the decision to buy them.
For other items, Wu Dabao couldn't make the decision.
For example, the Kuangfeng I Light Machine Gun, Jiaolong Assault Rifle, civilian mechanical exoskeletons, rational stabilization tranquilizers, small guardian statues, etc.
Although these items were also very tempting, their prices were high, and Xing Haiyang had not given any instructions before he left.
Wu Dabao didn't dare to make the decision.
He could only take the list back and discuss it with him.
This was also an important reason why Xing Haiyang felt confident allowing Wu Dabao to represent the Giant Whale Train.
He never made decisions rashly.
Just as Wu Dabao was about to put down the list and officially order the Ghost Killer Flintlock Rifle, Harvester Individual Grenade Launcher, meat buns, and iced cola, he heard Train Captain Lu Yang say, "Train Captain Wu, are you already done looking? There's still the back side!"
Wu Dabao: "There's still the back side?!"
He thought it was just one page, after all, who had so many good things!
And there was clearly still a third of the space empty at the bottom of the first page. If there really were more products, why not just continue listing them there instead of making another page?
With this thought, Wu Dabao casually flipped the paper over, and what greeted his eyes was a lifelike, massive cannon barrel that seemed to be right in front of him.
"PLZ Vehicle-Mounted Self-Propelled Howitzer...?!"
"There's also a cannon?!"
Wu Dabao exclaimed, almost dropping the colorful paper in his hand.
However, he wasn't some rookie; he gave Train Captain Lu Yang an embarrassed smile and then re-examined the product sheet in his hand.
Train Captain Lu Yang had specially created a single-page advertisement for the PLZ Vehicle-Mounted Self-Propelled Howitzer.
On the large sheet of paper, the 3D printed PLZ Vehicle-Mounted Self-Propelled Howitzer seemed to leap off the page.
The monstrous steel beast exuded a unique beauty.
It captivated everyone who saw it, not just Wu Dabao, but even Train Captain Lu Yang himself, who couldn't help but be engrossed.
Coupled with the detailed, superb parameters, it made Wu Dabao unconsciously swallow his saliva.
It was more alluring than a half-veiled beauty.
Although this item was very expensive, a tier 1 one cost 1500 units of tier 3 iron ore, a tier 2 one cost 3000 units of tier 3 iron ore, and a tier 3 one cost 5000 units of tier 3 iron ore.
Each shell started at 50 units of tier 3 copper.
But this was a cannon!
The Giant Whale Train had also learned that even in the Intermediate Zone, trains with cannons were rare, and they were mostly small caliber.
Unlike the PLZ Vehicle-Mounted Self-Propelled Howitzer sold by the Xinhuo Train, with its 155mm caliber, a tier 3 range, plus extended-range shells, it could reach up to 40 kilometers.
That was almost beyond the detection range of the enemy-seeking radar.
Buy it!
Must buy it!
The Giant Whale Train would sell everything it had to buy it!
Missing out on such a strategic item would lead to lifelong regret.
He just didn't know how much resource inventory his brother-in-law still had.
According to Wu Dabao's ideal scenario, it would be best to buy two PLZ Vehicle-Mounted Self-Propelled Howitzers. One facing forward, one facing backward, to provide wider firepower coverage and leave no blind spots.
In the future, when meeting other trains, once these two cannons were set up, who would dare to look down on the Giant Whale Train?
If anyone dared to say the Giant Whale Train only profited from others' misfortune, he would blast their front teeth out with a single shot.
Thinking of this, Wu Dabao quickly and respectfully said to Train Captain Lu Yang: "Train Captain Lu Yang, you have too many good things here; it's a bit overwhelming for me."
"How about this: I'll take this product catalog back to discuss with my brother-in-law, and then I'll come back later to place the official order."
Train Captain Lu Yang nodded: "Train Captain Wu, feel free to go back and discuss. The Xinhuo Train will be here for the next few days."
"Even if I leave later, the Xinhuo Train and the Giant Whale Train are friends, so we can contact each other anytime to arrange a trading location. It's no trouble."
After all, it was about making money, so Train Captain Lu Yang was willing to spend some time; it wasn't bothersome.
And there was another point, regarding the Leisure Sanctuary activation key.
As the killer of Wu Mazi, Train Captain Lu Yang held the decision-making power for the official activation of the Leisure Sanctuary [Golden Coast].
Only after he entered it would the Leisure Sanctuary [Golden Coast] officially open in Donglin Plain.
As long as the Leisure Sanctuary [Golden Coast] was activated within 72 hours after the secret realm portal descended,
the secret realm portal would not close.
At the same time, each Train Captain, after bringing their train inside, would have 72 hours of leisure time.
Once the time was up, even if the Train Captain was engaged in some indescribable activity at that moment, they would be automatically teleported out.
Therefore, under these circumstances, Train Captain Lu Yang naturally had nearly 3 days of new assembly trading time to sell goods from the Xinhuo Train.
If he didn't go in, no one else could.
If he didn't want to go in, no one could force him to.
