Needless to say, Cheng Yanqiu and his elite team play a vital role. As a reward, the Cheng Consortium will replace Lei Kui and the forces behind him and become the agent of the Consortium Alliance in the City of Steel.

The City of Steel is a huge cake, and what is commendable is that this cake has not been divided by many interest groups. In the past, the Mutual Aid Society used powerful force and fanatical beliefs to successfully cut those vain attempts from this cake. All the forces that came together drove out, wanting a city that swallows the entire steel city.

It can’t be said that the Mutual Aid Society’s approach is wrong, but the problem is that as top managers, the cardinals’ vision is still too short. After incorporating the entire military port area into the territory of the City of Steel, they have already entered the greed The point of enjoying and not being enterprising.

In order to gain greater rights and freedom, they even joined forces to find a way to secretly execute the archbishop who founded the mutual aid association.

However, after this temporary cooperation was declared disintegrated after the absence of the archbishop, although the entire city of steel still seemed to be under the control of the Mutual Aid Society, anyone with a brain could see that the four cardinals occupied the military port. In the four territories in the area, there is a clear dividing line between the four areas, and there is a feeling of occupying the mountain as the king.

In this way, even if there is no invasion of foreign forces, the civil war of the mutual aid association will probably break out over time.

Unlike the leaders who controlled the big consortium, these cardinals were once ordinary people, and their status limited their horizons.

After the rapid expansion and expansion in the initial stage, the city of steel fell into a stage of stagnant development and rested on its own feet. They continued to issue various prohibitions and restrictions, and wanted to turn the entire city into their own back garden. Hundreds of thousands of players have become pawns at their mercy, but they have forgotten one thing, that is, this is a wasteland world.

The rules of the wasteland world are very cruel, and the ever-increasing difficulty of the game and the increasingly stronger mutant creatures have also made players realize that living on this land is like a boat against the current. If you don’t advance, you can’t retreat. No, this It's much more than just retreating. If you can't adapt to the environment, the end will only be perish.

Other cities are thinking of ways to expand their territory, open factories, and recruit new pioneers and soldiers in large numbers. The managers of the mutual aid associations are thinking about how to make their lives more comfortable and how to make their lives more comfortable. The people are more devoted.

The reason why the city of steel has become so powerful is entirely because it occupies the unique geographical location of the military port area. If it is placed on a wasteland with no resources, even if a large-scale settlement of tens of thousands of people is established, I am afraid that once a medium-scale animal tide or sea of ​​corpses, this city no longer exists.

Therefore, the first thing Qi Lin needs to do is to develop the industrial military port area in the city. There are complete arsenals, research institutes, food factories and other facilities left over from the old era. The production capacity of the facilities is less than one-tenth of the old times.

In exchange, Qi Lin will transfer half of the operating rights of these factories to the Cheng consortium, and the Cheng consortium is responsible for providing the city of steel with production materials, technology and professional management personnel for a fee.

In addition, the trade window that has been strictly guarded by the Mutual Aid Society will also be opened to the Cheng Consortium, which can open stores and factories in the City of Steel, and only need to pay a tax rate of 30% on profits.

Note that it is the profit tax rate. The former Mutual Aid Society’s tax collected by outsiders was 40% of the turnover. This means that if the profit of the sale is less than 40%, the more you sell it. , The more the business loses.

With such a heavy taxation, things sold by foreign merchants have to increase their prices, but in this way, compared with the merchants in the mutual aid association, most of the products have almost no competitiveness except for a few rare items.

As for other consortiums who want to make their business into the city of steel, they can only take the road of the Cheng consortium. In this process, it can bring a lot of benefits to the Cheng consortium.

On the other hand, the Cheng’s consortium would like the City of Steel to provide Qi Lin with the serum, steel, fuel and other materials that Qi Lin needed urgently at internal cost, and would also send a group of professional instructors to join the Templar training camp. , To train those Templars into qualified fighters according to the standards and training methods of the private army of the consortium.

...

"I think that, as a defense force for shops and factories, we still need to send a 1,000-man troop to the City of Steel, and the City of Steel must provide this troop with a camp for free." Cheng Yanqiu said.

"No, up to three hundred people. The rent for the resident in the city is charged at 60% of the rent for the commercial area, and it is not allowed to hold heavy equipment such as power armor, tanks, and armored vehicles. Once encountering foreign enemies, the command will be It will be temporarily handed over to my people." Qi Lin repeatedly shook his head and said.

"9527, you are too much! Eight hundred people! Ten light power armors, five light armored vehicles, temporary command can be given to you when assisting in defense, but my commander can also decide whether to obey you based on his own judgment. In addition, the garrison must be free! This is just an army camp. How can the price be calculated at 60% of the commercial area of ​​the bustling section?" Cheng Yanqiu said quickly, and the two have a friendship, but they are brothers. You have to settle accounts clearly. In this case, naturally you have to find a way to get the most benefit for yourself.

"Want a free station? Yes, you can choose a hill outside the city. I will never charge you a cent."

"Outside the city? Yes, the upper limit of the number of troops in the garrison can be mentioned to me by one thousand and five, otherwise I won't talk about it!"

Just when the two were still bargaining, a Templar hurriedly found him. Qi Lin remembered this guy. When he followed the "copy" of the cardinal's mansion before, he was the most active and the earliest one." One of a group of Templar knights.

As one of the "agents" appointed by Qi Lin, his task is to lead a team to maintain order in the city, and by the way, to temporarily establish a line of defense outside the city of steel to prevent some interested people who have watched the entire battle Take advantage of the void and enter.

This guy hurried over. Could it be that something happened again?

"What's the matter, speak slowly." Qi Lin threw a bottle of water in his backpack.

The man took the water, took a big gulp, and then said: "We have found the resurrected Knight Commander of Fog Eyes!"
