After coming out of the Human Resources Department, it was almost dusk.
In the next half day, Sumo did not rush back to the dungeon to prepare for the upcoming Battle of Ten Thousand Paths. Instead, he took the time to visit Longteng Village and Murloc Village.
Compared with repeated expansions, Hope Village has become increasingly rich in living atmosphere.
Since Longteng Village was built relatively late, it does have quite an advantage in planning and appears to be more organized.
Looking down from a high altitude.
Longteng Village is divided into several different squares by cement roads that connect horizontally and vertically.
A large square is the factory area of two to three factories of the same type, with some independent buildings interspersed in the middle to provide convenient services or goods to nearby workers.
In the middle of several large squares is a circular Central Park.
Nowadays, winter still seems to be particularly depressing, but some facilities for residents to rest have been moved in in advance.
And in order to prevent everyone from rushing to and from get off work at the same time, causing commute congestion.
The factory in Longteng Village adopted the peak-staggering system in advance.
Different factories have different working hours from seven to ten in the morning.
Correspondingly, you can get off work early or late in the afternoon, and you can get on the commuter bus back at five o'clock at the earliest.
At this time, many people had already gotten off work, chatting and laughing and heading to the village entrance. Ten buses used for commuting were also lined up at the village entrance, and they left as soon as they were full.
Sumo pressed the airship in the corner, took out a special black mask from the storage compartment and put it on his face.
"Please help me change my voice later so they don't hear it."
"Okay." Artificial Intelligence Zero was shocked. This was within the scope of his abilities.
All you need to do is block the range of sound waves when Somo speaks, and then copy and forward them externally.
I walked quickly to the crowd, and many people who were still chatting and laughing were subconsciously stunned when they saw Somo in black clothes and a black mask.
It's the Tianyuan Guards!
It belongs exclusively to the underground city and is a defense force under the full command of Soma.
The last time they arrested those newcomers who wanted to bring news out of the territory, these black masks played a significant role. I heard that some people were even beaten to half a disability by them during their escape.
Facing this group of murderous people, it would be a lie to say that you are not afraid.
However, no one showed much emotion, they just lowered their voices slightly during the conversation.
After all, they had passed through the initial period of anxiety and panic, and now they had a complete understanding of the situation in the Tianyuan Territory.
It is basically impossible for anyone to sneak into the territory quietly.
Even if there were, they would not dare to act recklessly in the territory of the human Su Shen.
And facing the staff here, even the Tianyuan Guards, there is no need for those vain etiquette.
Everyone has things they should do and obligations they should fulfill.
As long as they have a clear conscience, the territory will never wrong ordinary people for no reason.
"You, come here."
The processed voice sounded like that of a mature middle-aged man, and no flaws were detected.
The young man who was called was a little nervous, but he still walked out of the crowd honestly.
"Sir, I didn't commit any crime, you..."
"Don't worry, not every guard is an arrester. We also have other tasks."
Hearing Sumo's explanation, the young man became obviously much more relaxed, and at the same time he once again displayed his talkative nature when standing in a crowd.
"Tell me, if there's anything I can do to help, I'll be there."
"Okay, let me ask you a few simple questions."
Su Mo thought for a moment and said softly: "Are you used to working here in Longteng Village?"
"Of course I'm used to it." The young man blurted out subconsciously, and then he couldn't help but laugh: "Speaking of which, I worked in an electronics factory on earth, but I didn't expect that I would still work in an electronics factory after I came to the wasteland.
.”
"Oh? Then shouldn't you be bored?"
"I'm so bored!"
The young man spoke with a distinctive accent from Guangdong and Guangxi and playfully flicked his tongue.
Several people nearby who were listening attentively also started laughing, and the scene was completely relaxed for a moment.
"Sir, why do you think we hate working in factories on Earth? Is it because we feel uncomfortable working there? Or is it because we lose face when working in factories?"
"Without going into too much detail, let's just do some calculations and it will become clear. I used to work an average of about 11 hours a day in the factory, and I could only get the high salary they promised, five thousand yuan, at the end of the month."
"Those five thousand were thrown away to eat and mail home. In the end, only about three thousand was saved."
"What can you do with three thousand these days? You have to save for several months to even buy the latest Apple machine."
“As for buying a house”
The young man frowned and thought hard for a while, and finally said helplessly: "I'm not even qualified for the down payment."
He does not mean that.
The critical attack of the last sentence silenced the others who were still making noises on the spot.
The mature system has indeed raised the lower limit, allowing everyone to live a life without worries about food and clothing.
But they are also constantly deprived of opportunities to change their destiny, resulting in higher and higher barriers to advancement.
"what about now?"
"Now I can earn 35 copper coins a month. After excluding debt repayments, food expenses, and daily expenses, I can buy an independent house in half a year with the money I save!"
"Even if I save for a while, I can directly buy a big house with a yard. I can raise chickens and grow vegetables. I can let fresh air enter my room as soon as I open the window. I don't have to pay extra for a foot of sunlight.
.”
"In modern times, this is a villa!"
The young man smiled happily, as if he had already thought of the beauty of life ahead.
"You don't want to live in a dungeon?"
"Well, of course I did, but I am self-aware." The young man shook his head slightly: "The number of places is limited now, so our newcomers will not join in the fun, otherwise it will only add to the trouble."
"Didn't the lord already say that as long as you work hard, you will get what you deserve in the end?"
So optimistic?
Hearing this unexpected answer, Somo nodded thoughtfully.
He originally thought that everyone would compete for a place in the dungeon, but the answer he got was exactly the opposite.
Sure enough, the beauty of life can make people ignore those sharp contradictions in certain situations.
but
"Besides buying a house, do you have any other goals?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I heard many people say yesterday that the first generation terminal is about to be released. It can communicate with each other within the territory, use mobile payment, and can also be decorated and played with mini games."
Yes, he is indeed a young man.
The machines that manufacture the terminals have not yet been fully repaired, and the terminal release scene has already begun.
Somo coughed lightly, and then pressed his temper and asked other people around him.
There are just a few answers.
House, land, spouse, entertainment.
This is almost the same as the needs seen in the territory panel. Once people are idle, they will start to have spiritual needs.
"Okay, my work is done, you can go."
After interrupting several chatterers who still had unfinished thoughts, Soma walked away and disappeared into the crowd.
Until the airship soared into the sky, it didn't attract anyone's attention anymore.
The next stop is the Fishman Village.
Compared with the development of Hope Village and Longteng Village, the construction of the self-sufficient Murloc Village has become increasingly wild.
Similar to a nomadic tribe setting.
Although the blocks of buildings are not far apart, there is no sense of bordering on either side.
And with the opening up of the river, it has been extended to the warning wall.
More and more murlocs no longer live in damp and cold buildings, but move their residences to the river.
During the day, you can jump out of the window and go directly to the river for a swim.
When you get tired from swimming, you can get home right away when you land ashore, and your life is countless times happier than before.
However, since spring is approaching, the smell of Fishman Village is a bit pungent now.
The special smell caused by the fish people's heat almost covers several kilometers in the surrounding area.
In the distance, Sumo saw Moore with the construction team, standing at the door to protest with the village chief Yu Haichao.
"Every little fishman in heat should take a bath on time, otherwise the smell will be too bad!"
"Especially in recent times, these guys have become more and more bold and started to rub slime on building materials at will. As a result, our construction team was fined 500 copper coins yesterday!"
The huge thunder bear is now over two meters tall and looks very intimidating.
However, his height is really a bit funny when used to make excuses.
"Mr. Moore, it's not that I don't restrain these little fish people. This is their nature."
"Just like you have to eat five meals a day, can I make you only eat two meals a day?"
"That won't work. I won't be full after two meals."
Moore shook his head honestly, and then realized with some annoyance that he had been let in.
"But the current estrus is affecting our normal work too much. If we are fined two more times, our construction team will go bankrupt!"
"This" Yu Haichao hesitated to speak, not knowing how to explain it.
The fishman village can't come forward to make up for the loss of the construction team, right? What sense does this make?
Besides, although the little fish people learned human habits and came to the shore from the sea, some things rooted in their genes cannot be completely changed.
If you want to reproduce and mate, you must first change the surrounding environment by secreting mucus.
Only when the concentration in the environment reaches the standard can the fish-human embryos in the egg-laying state meet the basic conditions for growth.
If this stops making them secrete mucus, take a bath every day.
What else can Spring Fishman Village use to expand its scale?
At this moment, a scream came from a distance, and Yu Haichao's eyes couldn't help but light up.
"The lord is here, let's let the lord comment."
"What, the master is here?"
One fish and one bear turned their heads and immediately saw Somo pressing the airship button and striding over.
Immediately, Moore wanted to hide.
But he was still glared back by Somo's stern eyes, and he was stuck in place like a pillar.
"What are you doing, bringing so many people to block the entrance to the village?"
A bear and a small murloc surrounded the gate of the murloc village, which actually looked a bit funny.
Due to long-term consumption of psionic water, Moore's current IQ is basically the same as that of a fifteen-year-old human being, and he is beginning to be able to think about some complex issues.
At the same time, the fish construction team led by Moore is very hardworking and their wages are low.
Therefore, except for some work that requires meticulous construction, such as the buildings in Hope Village and Longteng Village, which are still contracted by construction apprentices, other engineering facilities that need to be built in the wild are left to Moore.
Now, with five hundred little fishmen.
The reputation of the murloc construction team has already spread. Recently, the agricultural company seems to have signed an agreement with the construction team to hire murlocs to help build plantations.
"Is such that"
Seeing Moore awkwardly on the spot, Yu Haichao did not dare to remain stunned and quickly explained the conflict between the two of them just now.
Considering the relationship between Moore and Sumo, he did not dare to add fuel to the fire.
"Are you talking about how strong the smell will be in spring?"
After listening, Sumo frowned.
"Yes, this is also the reason why our fish-men tribe has never been able to expand on a large scale. The smell will attract many enemies, and they will come to attack during our breeding period."
Yu Haichao explained briefly.
The rules of the alien world are different from those of humans. With the blessing of a little fantasy, some alien races need to hunt fishmen to increase the energy in their bodies.
In fact, some alien races mainly focus on fishmen, so they will not miss this breeding time when the fishmen are at their weakest.
"I understand, you don't have to worry about this matter anymore, I will take care of it."
We can't let the murlocs stop spring reproduction.
Compared with human beings who need a long time to grow, they also need a certain amount of education before they can embark on a job.
The little fish people only need one year of growth to complete the long stage from birth to work.
As the main force in future infrastructure construction, Sumo did not want to interrupt the process just because of some smell.
etc.
No wonder the fishman city in the ruins of the future is so remote and has been moved several times from the beginning to the final completion.
It turns out that’s the reason!
He didn't pay attention to this at the time, but now that he thinks about it, Somo suddenly realizes it.
"How is it solved in the ruins?"
I thought about it for a while, until Moore became more and more anxious.
Only then did Sumo find a few descriptions from his memory that he had seen in the history of the development of the territory.
It seems that a corridor-shaped building was built first, and then covered with water to block out all smells.
And it was precisely because of this repair that the treasure fish disappeared along the river during the big earthquake.
"Moore, give your construction team a project that can not only make money, but also solve all odor problems now and in the future."
When you hear about a project, you can make money and solve problems.
Moore, who was afraid of being scolded just now, suddenly brightened up and beat his chest happily.
"Master, just give me your orders, Moore's construction team will definitely help you do the job."
"Okay, I'll have someone send me the design drawings in two days. Just follow them and make the repairs."
He comforted Moore with a few words.
Because the smell in the air was really disgusting, Somo didn't want to stay and take a look around.
Returned to the airship and looked at the territory map recorded on it.
Somo pondered and clicked on a blue square.
It was a lake generated from resource cards when the Tianyuan territory was created.
In the subsequent upgrade of the territory, Somo used scraps to upgrade again.
Including the carp in the lake, they also got the light.
The first time he came back from the snow-capped mountains, Sumo went to see the evolution level of the carp with special attributes.
It's a pity that there were no obvious changes at that time. At best, it just became a little bigger.
It has been almost a year now without realizing it, maybe it will bring some surprises?
