Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

August 1

The afternoon sun is a bit fierce, and many people feel that the temperature of the sun is getting higher and higher. This is related to the current cultivation of major crops in a larger area in the eastern grain base.

In order to effectively increase the yield of crops, 12 Branch has developed newer crops. The five crops a year are the same as in the past, but the yield is higher, but they require very sufficient sunlight and nutrients.

Job advertisements for the Agricultural Department are everywhere on the streets. The originally approved salary of 500 yuan has increased to 800, but now the permanent labor force of the Agricultural Department is still not enough.

Section 11 has begun to fully support Section 12's plan. Prisoners come out of the prison tower every day to work in the planting fields. Today, the city's economy has begun to gradually improve, and a large number of companies have experienced labor shortages.

Quite a few people have retired, and they are all over 100 years old. The city is being renovated and requires a large number of workers. Nowadays, workers' wages have increased to 60 to 80 yuan a day.

Li Ang kept wiping the sweat from his forehead. The district near the east was very hot in the afternoon. This was the compound of Section 7 Management Office. Li Ang was sitting at a temporary desk under a shack, reviewing the information of the man in front of him. material.

The registration for the annual pediatric examination has begun. This year, the registration review task fell to Section 7. The registration for District 28 was directly left to Li Ang and several other people in the utility room.

This work is complicated and huge. Currently, the number of people registered in District 29 has exceeded 1,000, and Li Ang and his colleagues need to verify the identity information of each person.

The first thing to check is the past resume of these applicants and whether they have committed any major crimes in the past 10 years. Those who have committed major crimes will not be eligible to apply. Then there is the review of the industry they worked in in the past.

In the industry that I worked in in the past, there were no major industry problems, such as corruption and bribery. The final step is to review the person's financial situation. Those with major debt problems will not be able to apply.

These reviews require verification from room to room. Judging from the current number of people, such verification will take at least four months and can be completed by the end of the year. Li Ang looked at the young man in front of him, filling in some relevant information, and Li Ang It will be verified in the population information system.

Applicants generally cannot fill in some basic information casually. If such information is verified, they will be directly disqualified.

There are still many people in the yard waiting to fill in information and conduct preliminary verification. It will take a few days for other departments of the management office to start coming to help, and Li Ang's work will be easier.

"Mr. Zhang Hua, the automobile industry you were engaged in has been out of business for a long time. There is no way to verify some things. In addition to the automobile industry, have you ever been in other industries?"

The man in front of him nodded.

"In the past few years, I have been working in some parts factories."

Li Ang hummed, and the man in front of him was obviously a little scared. Li Ang immediately said with a smile.

"It's okay, I'm just asking. Mr. Zhang Hua is basically fine. Your information can be passed."

Zhang Hua nodded excitedly and thanked him again and again. Li Ang saw that Zhang Hua was already 67 years old. There were many people at this age applying for the profession, but basically their working years would not be too long, so their pension would be smaller.

However, the business department is still a relatively stable iron rice bowl occupation. This is the reason why the number of applicants has been rising in recent years. Even though the current exam is much more difficult in Li Ang's opinion than in the past, there are still many people applying.

Most of the applicants come from the middle class with a relatively stable economy, and there are relatively few at the bottom. Basically, more than 60% to 70% of the applicants every year are from the middle class. This is not a good phenomenon, especially now that the application for the Acting Department has been Citizenship levels are incorporated.

Citizens below level 3 are not eligible to take the civil service examination. Li Ang felt that this was unreasonable, so he had already submitted his proposal to the higher-ups, but nothing happened and he did not receive any response.

Soon Li Ang began to review the information of the next applicant. This year, nearly 20,000 clerks retired. Most of them were people who were at the grassroots level of managers before the establishment of the practice department, and then transferred to the department after the establishment of the practice department. I have been working in the department for more than 20 years.

Retirement means there will be huge gaps in various subjects, but the difficulty of the exam has not been reduced. The passing line for the exam is also a flexible passing line based on the results of the candidates each year.

"Li Ang, please go and rest for a while."

At this time, a replacement clerk came over, and Li Ang happily accepted it. He planned to rest for half an hour and then return to work. After all, he had been busy from 7 o'clock in the morning until now, and Li Ang did not take a break at noon.

Now Li Ang is much more active at work, and this positivity has also brought benefits. He will be promoted to team leader next month, and will be transferred from the utility room to the field department to be responsible for loans in the region.

Li Ang has always been resistant to loans. He always felt that Section 7 should close large-amount loans and only allow small-amount temporary borrowings to help some people survive the short-term economic crisis.

Li Ang went directly back to the dormitory. Originally, he could rest until 5 o'clock, but Li Ang felt that he was full of energy recently and did not need much rest. He quickly completed the work at hand. Li Ang also planned to continue to collect economic data from various industries in the region.

These tasks are all extra work he is doing in his job. These economic data collection tasks are usually compiled by Section 6 every month. However, such statistics seem to be very inaccurate to Li Ang.

Economic variables should be handled by Section 7. One month is too long. Daily collection of variables can ensure the accuracy of the data. Accurate data can provide very stable forecast data for Section 2, as well as more detailed data for Section 6. Provide a strong basis for overall planning.

As long as Section 7 directly eliminates the loan department, it will have the time and energy to carry out such detailed statistical work on daily economic variables, and if only the national virtual currency needs to be implemented in the future, the work efficiency can be improved several times.

Li Ang knows that the reason why most people are opposed to virtual currency is that once the era of virtual currency begins, there will be no privacy. People will be able to see what they buy and how they use their money. Li Ang's idea is that the amount can be approved, and small amounts of money can be approved. Transactions do not need to be monitored in real time, as long as they can be traced when something goes wrong.

This can give all citizens a space of privacy. As long as the funds are not involved in crime, they will not be monitored in real time. However, large-amount money transactions require real-time monitoring.

This will make the entire power community in Bright City more transparent, and the money and power transactions behind the scenes will be greatly curbed. Even though the 5th Section has completely changed, some problems still exist and still need to be regulated. Just fine.

These things must be realized step by step, and Section 7 is a more critical subject, but today's Section 7 still continues everything in the past. Even though Section 5 conducted a drastic investigation before, only some people had problems, and in the end We can only settle the matter. If we continue to investigate, it will inevitably cause major problems in the entire city's financial system.

Li Ang had a drink with Jewell a while ago, and he revealed a lot of things to Li Ang, and Li Ang also knew very well that many things could only stop here and could not go any further.

While thinking, Li Ang closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, it was already 4:40 in the afternoon. Li Ang got up in a hurry, originally only planning to rest for half an hour.

Returning to the compound again, there were still many people waiting in line. Li Ang sat back at his desk, and someone immediately ran over.

When he was busy until 6 pm, Li Ang completed the review of the last person's information, and planned to go to the cafeteria to eat, and then go to the street to start his private work.

This kind of thing is a bit weird in the eyes of many colleagues, and Li Ang never explained it. He just used the reason that he wanted to write an economic paper.

After arriving on a street, Li Ang took out the light and shadow screen and carefully observed the situation of several stores. He would go to these stores every day and ask about the day's turnover, the number of customers, etc.

As long as he has the basic values ​​of these stores for a week, Li Ang can quickly prepare the economic variables of a store's revenue for a month, which is basically the same as the report he calculated and produced, because all stores are taxed.

However, the results of the economic variables obtained after adding taxes are different, because many stores pay a variety of taxes. Although it is easy to understand the operating status of a store through these taxes, it cannot be seen Looking at the economic variables of a store as a whole, it is difficult to see the direction of the economic variables.

The daily factual economic variables can also provide effective evidence for these shops and provide early warning for some businessmen's investments. In Li Ang's view, a lot of money in the city is wasted in useless places.

The useless part is that businessmen with large capital have made ineffective investments in their own industries, trying to use large capital to monopolize business in some areas. This approach has obvious harm to the local economy, even if taxes are It can stabilize, but one day in the future, big problems will suddenly occur, resulting in a sharp drop in tax revenue.

A sharp drop in taxation means a reduction in operators' income, and it is almost impossible to recover the reduced income. As a result, many people will change jobs or engage in other types of operations.

In Li Ang's meticulous investigation, many such things have happened before. Taking a street as an example, when the store situation was basically stable, there was a snack shop. The snack shop made a lot of money, but other people looked at it. I went to the snack shop to make money, so I invested in it.

As a result, the economic variables of the entire street will be surprised, and then a snack bar joins in, and the economic variables will start to change sharply. This is because the average consumption level of the entire street is basically at a constant value, and if you want to To make money from your own snack bar, the only way to make money is to have unique features.

However, among 100 such snack bars, only a few can clearly leave an impression on consumers. Therefore, the subtle economic variables of most snack bars will affect the overall economic variables of the entire street.

Over time, under the influence of such subtle and seemingly imperceptible variables, many operators have actually fallen into crisis when they sensed the crisis. In the end, they had to close their doors and the business failed. Not to mention making money, they actually suffered losses.

Li Ang wants to build a specific economic variable system. All operators can check the economic variables within their own scope and make timely adjustments to stop losses, instead of just seeing the business is not good and finally having no choice but to do so. Can close down business.

Many operators just want to make money steadily by opening a store in a popular area, but if this continues in the long run, it will damage the overall economy of the neighborhood.

After all, no matter how popular the area is, there are only a few stores that can really make money, and many other stores can only survive because most operators, especially self-employed ones, cannot have a comprehensive and effective understanding of an area. In terms of assessment, most people can only see which store on this street is making money, and immediately invest and follow up. In fact, they do not know that the overall economic variables of this street have actually begun to decline.

This is the blind obedience effect in the economy. Because they can see the benefits, many people feel that they can get a share of the pie. In fact, they do not know what the decline of the overall economic variables means.

The decline of the overall economic variables means that the economic situation of the entire street is not good, and if you blindly join in at this time, it will only accelerate the economic decline of the street, thus triggering a chain reaction, and the last people who join may lose everything. .

If there is a set of specific and actual economic variables and timely conditions, most operators can judge the direction and location of investment and operations. Just like the lively street in front of Li Ang today, it looks very prosperous, and most of the shops There are people coming in and out, but in fact, during this month's investigation, Li Ang found that the operation of many stores was not ideal.

Just like a restaurant that Li Ang is currently investigating, there is a steady flow of business every night, but in fact the revenue of this restaurant is declining, and there is a relatively large numerical gap in tax revenue.

The tax values ​​for incomes of 5,000 yuan and 10,000 yuan are different. If you used to earn 9,000 yuan, you only need to pay tax in the range of 5,000 to 10,000 yuan. But now your income is only 5,000 yuan, and the economic variable is 4,000 yuan different.

In fact, the economic variables are declining, but many people still only see that this store's business is booming, and it doesn't look much different from the past. The reason why this store's revenue will fall is related to the overall environment of the city. , and is also related to the population variability within the region.

Many subtle things can cause economic variables, and when these variables begin to change drastically, you should pay attention instead of operating blindly.

Looking at the various recharge discounts and new dishes launched outside the store, it can be seen that the boss is already a little restless. After all, the income has dropped sharply, but the volume is still the same as when the income was high. If it continues, Will fall into a debt management crisis.

Until 8 o'clock in the evening, Li Ang had something to eat on the street, and then walked in. The boss also cooperated and told Li Ang their store's revenue today.

"Thank you very much for your cooperation!"

After Li Ang walked out of the store, he walked towards the next store.
