What Qian Wanzhong said is indeed a good place.
Timber Street, Bolt Lane, and Zhenzhi Avenue are collectively known as the Golden Grottoes in District H.
Needless to say, Bolt Alley is popular, and Cherish Avenue is a paradise for gambling.
The entertainment venues on Timber Street are much more conservative, mostly bars and karaoke bars. Of course, private drug transactions are common.
The karaoke hall where a few people are now is a tin room transformed from dozens of shipping containers.
The previous boss was a ruthless person who took advantage of the space and ripped off customers. It was a complete crime.
How can your shoes not get wet when you often stand by the river?
Finally, I got into trouble for once, and the boss just finished his harsh words and made people collapse.
The karaoke hall was left idle.
Because it is located at the intersection of Huangtan Street and DU Street, it is really a convenient place. Several groups of people are competing overtly and covertly, but no one has absolutely overwhelming strength.
Lu Anran gave this piece of land to Chen Mo not only as a favor, but also because he wanted to rely solely on Night Owl's reputation so that even if 6K could take over this piece of land, no one would dare to say anything.
The area of the land is not large, about a thousand square meters. In addition, there must be a gap between the buildings, so the usable area is even smaller.
According to Lao Bai's idea, the wall must have a series of functions such as fire protection, bulletproof and heat insulation, and the thickness of the wall must be greatly increased. In this way, the usable area of a single layer will only be more than 400 to 500 square meters.
There are three floors above ground, the top floor is used for bedrooms, and the underground floor is used for weapons and wine storage. The business area of 1,800 square meters on the two floors is enough.
After making a happy decision, Chen Mo and Meng Ren returned to the rental house and briefly described the situation with Lao Bai.
Lao Bai thought about it and knew that there must be something fishy in it.
Otherwise, it’s just a one-time relationship and a large area is given away for free?
Falling in love at first sight is a trick to fool a fool.
"Well, the place is good. Is the construction team they introduced reliable?"
"Not sure."
Lao Bai nodded.
"In the afternoon, you go to several construction companies and ask fierce people to follow you. The house must be at least military-industrial bulletproof, with a budget of two million."
"Any other instructions?"
"You don't need to pay a deposit. We will provide you with a drawing and a quote. We will find a conference room for them to gather in two days. They will do it themselves, and the price can be reduced a lot."
"No problem." Chen Mo nodded.
Three days later…
Gangtang Teahouse in District H.
It was around nine o'clock, the sun was just right, and the weather was cold but not too cold.
Zheng Qiuhong and others were wandering around in Area H. Lao Bai, Chen Mo, and Meng Ren rented a conference room and were interviewing with a construction company.
Chen Mo and Mengren found a total of four construction companies and came up with drawings and plans after on-site inspections in the past few days.
There are three types of construction methods.
The first one is the most basic masonry construction, which was directly rejected by Lao Bai. The second type is splicing of polymer materials, which Lao Bai prefers. The third type is 3D printing template, which is cast and molded. It has the best safety and plasticity, but the price is slightly beyond the budget.
The person who proposed the masonry structure was a small construction company, but Lao Bai dismissed it after a few words.
That person didn't have any complaints. After all, compared with the other three companies, the technological content and company size were not at the same level.
Among the next three houses, one is spliced with polymer materials, and the other two are molded by printing and pouring templates.
Lao Bai thought about it and sent away the one who wanted to polymerize the materials.
Lao Bai is from the North, but his thinking is more oriental. He feels that a house is a home, and of course it should be the best.
Of the remaining two construction companies, one was introduced by Lu Anran, and the other built safe houses for fierce people.
After some bidding, the company that helped Mengren build a safe house won Lao Bai's approval with a lower price and accompanying decoration.
The final transaction price was 1.2 million in cash plus 70g of yi.
I paid the deposit and decided to start construction in the afternoon.
The construction method used by Lao Bai is to first have a complete drawing, and then use large-scale 3D printing equipment to use granular printing method and selective laser melting molding (SLM) to make high-strength and difficult-to-corrode materials such as titanium alloy and cobalt-chromium alloy. Metal is used to create the main structure of the house, and then an outer layer of hardened resin is cast, and an alloy mesh is used as a carrier inside. Finally, the geopolymer is poured into concrete, and after drying, it becomes the main body of the building.
Geopolymers are two-component systems consisting of reactive solids and an activation solution of alkali metal hydroxides.
The solid material is made of Rose Star's unique sea marble, whose main components are silicon and alumina. Its hardness is twice that of the hardest granite on earth.
When the activation solution is mixed with the solid powder, a polymerization reaction will occur, forming a tetrahedral structure with a silicon base as the base, oxygen atoms at the four corners, and aluminum atoms inside. The molecular structure is extremely tight.
The hardness far exceeds any known natural ore, and is even as hard as steel.
For a building built in this way, even if an earthquake of magnitude 20 occurs, it can be knocked down by the sky without any damage to the building itself.
Small-caliber rifle rounds are even more of an itch.
Completely worthy of military-industrial level.
After the construction was completed, the outermost layer of resin was removed and replaced with white LINE-X paint. Bullets could not even leave a mark...
The resin inside is not modified, and the resin-based decoration has extremely good adhesion and waterproof properties.
In total, the cost was just over two million.
Add to that the purchase of furniture, the preparation of the bar, the purchase of wine and the raw materials produced by the military factory at the F113 base, and the funds in Lao Bai's hands were completely insufficient.
However, this problem was quickly solved. When Lin Yuanyuan commissioned the rescue of Su Lei, the fierce man took 100,000 in cash and 10g of yi. Later, he helped Chen Mo get another 200,000. Lao Bai gave him 10g of yi. Before, Chen Mo also returned He was given 100g of yi from Lao Dingtou.
Converted into cash, it's a huge amount of 1.5 million.
The fierce man has been wandering for a long time and has really not purchased any property that will appreciate in value. In total, his entire net worth was directly invested in 20 shares.
Lao Bai still couldn't be happy.
Even with an extra 1.5 million, funds are still tight and life is tight. Ninety-nine percent of Chen Mo's funds have been invested in F113. At this moment, food, clothing, housing and transportation are becoming a problem.
The fierce man went back to the safe house and took out the cash that Chen Mo kept. Everyone finally recovered from the bleeding and their lives became smoother again.
The engineering team was very helpful. They moved the containers and started laying the foundation and basement in the afternoon of the day they received the deposit. The basic work was completed in two days, and the 3D printer was moved in on the third day.
Then it took a day to print and half a day to pour.
After waiting for 24 hours to stabilize and solidify, the decoration began.
Lao Bai delivered the first batch of materials to Zhou Xiaomeng. The delivery person was Cheng Wen Chengwu. When he went to the place and made a video call with Lao Bai, he saw that Victor was dismantled in pieces... Kang Jiajia wiped his sweat and said that he would be able to install it. .
The good news is that Zhou Xiaomeng has unlocked Victor's first backdoor. Once the processing room of the fortress mother body is decrypted, he will be able to obtain two level 9 AI robots.
Although it didn't pass the Turing test, it was enough to be a processor and a coolie.
December 31st, 47 days before eternal night.
The main body of the building has been officially completed. The modern minimalist style three-story white pub is much more stylish than other small bars.
The interior decoration is still in progress and it is not possible to move in.
Kang Jiajia and Zhou Xiaomeng were called back from Diaocheng by Lao Bai, and they gathered with everyone at Hu Jun's restaurant for New Year's Eve dinner.
Lao Bai opened a bottle of whiskey and each poured a small glass.
The rich smell of peat is intoxicating.
The macaw that I didn't have time to take away when I returned from the White Stone Tavern also flew back to Lao Bai at some point.
"Happy New Year, little cubs."
The parrot stood on Old White's shoulder.
"Happy Happy!"
