Chapter 311 A Difficult Beginning (Part 2)

There was a banging sound, and for a moment, the water in the swimming pool splashed, and bursts of explosions sounded. The water people at the water's edge turned into water and poured into the swimming pool crazily.

Tian Ai sighed helplessly and walked over slowly. Hawke's clothes were in tatters and he was floating face down in the water. There were large red spots on his body, and some places were directly dented.

snap

There was a sound of splashing water, and Hawke climbed out of the swimming pool. Tianai covered his mouth and smiled sullenly. The red spots on Hawke's body had begun to swell. He spit out a mouthful of water, and his face was covered with The makeup was worn off, and a thick beard was exposed under the foundation.

"Why are you telling me this kind of thing now? Fortunately, you protected your face, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to go out and meet people."

The wise man walked quickly through the somewhat congested streets. District 108 was like two different worlds from the middle and upper classes. There was chaos everywhere. Quasimodo followed the wise man. He came down after lunch yesterday. Yesterday, the two of them got familiar with the streets of District 108.

Regarding the information about District 108, the wise man also checked it in detail in Section 6. The permanent population is 199,587, and the floating population averages about 20,000 people every month. There is only one school in this place that borders District 109, and there is one hospital, just in 108 In the center of the district, there are 37 drug clinics, 567 shops, most of which are food stores, and 4 wallet management offices.

The 108th Public Security Management Office has only 879 clerks, including 1 law office, 6 urban management offices, and 2 commercial offices. Most of the clerks in the administrative department are new clerks, and they have only been working for about one year on average. , less than 20% of the staff are veteran staff.

Most staff do not want to work in slums. The working environment is not good, and fights are common. Although the benefits increase slowly and steadily from the beginning of employment, the salary is different and is based on local conditions. In terms of tax levels, prices here are low, and the per capita salary is even less than 500. Therefore, the salary of administrative staff has been around 1,000 to 2,000 all year round, which is a bit miserable for many people. After all, if they want to go to the middle level , such a small amount of money is not enough.

Although many bills to revitalize the economy have been introduced, most of them failed during the actual implementation process. The wise man saw many people from the executive branch yesterday. There are ways to make extra money here.

The network coverage rate is basically only 30%. The only entertainment activities for people in District 108 are playing cards and mahjong, or going to the three light and shadow screen squares to watch TV series and movies. However, many movies and TV series are from many years ago, and some of the latest movies are TV series require payment, and they cannot afford the cost.

There are three main streets, South Street, North Street and East Street. The busiest one is East Street, because it is close to the 107th District, which is relatively better. There are 10 councilors, most of whom are attached to The puppets of councilors from other wealthy districts are basically useless, except that each person has a vote.

The main source of income for most people here is to work on the farms in the east. When the citizen level reaches 1, they go back to work for three months. Those who are stronger and more skillful can earn more than 2,000 yuan. Most people can only rely on Purchase the cheapest raw materials at low prices and process some gadgets yourself to make ends meet.

According to the law, if citizen level 1 is unwilling to work on the eastern farm, he must pay a minimum tax of 50 yuan every month. If he cannot pay for more than 3 months, he will be directly reduced to level 0 and expelled.

From time to time, shirtless and dirty children ran past the wise man and Quasimodo on the street. On the streets on both sides, there were many people talking and laughing, most of them. There is no formal stable job, we all help each other with odd jobs.

I really don’t know what’s wrong with that girl, I’m going to be a big-headed idiot for you.

The wise man already wanted to curse in his heart. This kind of place implements the bill, and it is in the form of store rental. Only ghosts would come to rent those expensive multi-functional mechanical balls. The wise man originally thought that Alpha would have some suggestions. But tomorrow the plan bill will be submitted to Congress, and there is no time to amend it. What worries the wise most now is the rental price of the mechanical ball. It cannot be lower than 20 yuan a day, but 20 yuan is enough for people here. A family of three has been living together for a week, only a ghost would rent something like this.

Although the wise man also understands Le Xiao’s small thoughts behind insisting on making this motion in District 108, everything here is simply in dire straits. There are still many interpersonal relationships to deal with, and the threat of rioters must be careful, and money is needed. The most important thing is This is the point. Now that the bill has been made, this form of leasing does not cost much at all. The most popular location for shops here only costs 2,000 a month. It is still a large house with a three-frame facade. It costs hundreds more. You can also rent a shop with a second floor in the block, and Lexiao's doing this is equivalent to rejecting the intervention of wealthy businessmen. This is equivalent to building this thing in the neighborhood, and then observing it in detail for three months, recording the mechanical The effect the ball had on the mutants on the block.

The most critical thing is the number of mutants. There are 931 registered mutants, all of whom are E-class mutants. Most of them work here as coolies, earning no more than 10 yuan a day at most.

"Damn it, I'll do it for you!"

The wise man was walking and suddenly stopped. Quasimodo bumped into him. The wise man stumbled and fell to the ground. Immediately, he was picked up by Quasimodo's two fingers and stuck. Simodo looked at the wise man apologetically and wanted to help him wipe the dirt from his face.

"I'll do it myself. I'll go over there and have a sip of tea."

At this time, the two of them were on South Street. They found a drink shop with tables and chairs on the roadside. The wise man ordered two ice drinks and some peanuts.

The boss warmly welcomed me and kept showing his goodwill.

"Old man, this big brother, is there a big bill coming here soon? Haha, I heard from my sister's distant cousin that Mr. Le Xiao is a genius who has stepped out here and will benefit this slum area. "

The wise man could only nod his head with a smile on his face.

It's a blessing, just don't trap a bunch of us in and can't get out!

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Le Xiao and Guo Guo were arguing with each other and returned to the square metal block in the middle.

"Are you an idiot? Renting it for 1 yuan a day is not even enough to pay for the care of this multifunctional mechanical ball. The minimum price is 40 days."

Le Xiao's eyes widened.

"Before 40, it was enough for my family to live for half a month. You don't know anything. Besides, I am doing this bill, not you. How much pricing power should be in my hands. Don't be an idiot. You You are the idiot who lives in the laboratory without leaving the house. Do you know the taste of liquid food? Do you know the discomfort of being able to take a shower only once a week? Do you know the suffering of having to rely on rice cereal for several days in a row? Know."

"I know shit, I know, anyway, 40 is the lowest bottom line, you"

Snapped

Lexiao put both hands on Guoguo's face.

"Then use your genius brain to make me a machine that only costs 1 yuan a day. If you can't do it, what's the use of you?"
