Root has his own understanding of all social strata. Even if he mixes in with the relatively poor people such as porters, he can find his own position and quickly blend in quite well among this group.
Relying on the assistance of magic, even if he did not have crystals to absorb the harsh sunlight, he did not suffer any damage during these days of work.
And because he can use magic to reduce the weight of the objects being transported to a certain extent, although it is the simplest physical labor, he still made some savings for himself in the process.
He showed enough loyalty when getting along with other people that the other porters around him also recognized him. It was also through this opportunity that he successfully obtained temporary status. After several workers certified it for him,
Successfully obtained the official identity certificate of this world and entered the file into the city.
In fact, if you really want to obtain a reliable enough identity, there is a simpler solution than this, which is to spend enough money to smoothen the relationship. Once you have enough social resources and enough connections, this kind of thing is very simple.
It can be done.
However, he has just participated in this social production and has not yet understood all the common sense. If he rashly trades many precious metals, it will cause big problems.
And now he has slowly integrated into this society. Then under the rule structure of this social system, he has gradually climbed to a higher position and mastered more social resources. The difficulty has been greatly reduced.
. At least it won't bring you any extra trouble.
After selling my labor for a period of time, I have a reasonable reason to turn my savings into reasonable assets. In the process, I have learned most of the common sense in the world.
Just as he guessed, this world was in eternal daytime many years ago. And in the eternal daytime, the flooding of light would destroy all life. Until their civilization discovered a way to
Plants that grew at extremely high speeds survived the flood of light. Relying on this plant, they could offset the influence of light, so that the extra light power in the flood of light would not cause harm to them.
It is to erode these plants first, so that they can develop normally in the shelter built by the plants.
As for the black crystals worn by each of them, they were originally things that would be left behind after they died. This black crystal can absorb light to a certain extent and maintain an area suitable for their survival.
After plants are used to create shelters, these black crystals can ensure that the light inside the shelter is not scarce enough, allowing them to survive and reproduce.
Recently, the light from the outside world has begun to gradually dissipate. Correspondingly, the protective effect of these black crystals is not so important. Even without the existence of these pitch-black crystals, they can still live normally under the current intensity of sunlight.
surface.
Therefore, the large number of plants that covered the buildings began to be removed one after another. Except for a few large cities that were set up as shelters, in order to avoid the sudden fall of the sun again, a large number of plant structures were retained. The rest of the railways, stations, towns and other areas are in need
Eradicate the surrounding giant plants to allow the town to expand and develop outward.
In addition, there are many underground cities in the world, which are also built to resist the flood of light. Those cities are also shelters. Because they are built underground, they do not need to be demolished. There is no plan to do so in the future.
These cities were expanded.
Prepare to be used as a shelter in the event of new natural disasters in the future.
After establishing these basic common sense knowledge, Root deduced based on his own experience that the construction industry should usher in a round of prosperity next, and various infrastructure constructions are very suitable as investment targets. Moreover, there are various classical physics
Knowledgeable, he believes that the next development trend should be towards the electric age.
Although steam trains will not be replaced, widespread use of electricity in the future should soon be available.
Investing in this industry can also make a lot of money. The prerequisite for these is that he can complete the original capital accumulation in a short period of time.
It is difficult for normal industries to complete primitive capital accumulation. Under this social structure, if you make money honestly by working, you can indeed live a life without worries about food and clothing. After all, the sun is not so scary now.
Now, people in this world can free up a large amount of labor force. This has made productivity prosper to a certain extent, and the prices of products on the market have begun to drop rapidly. Although a large number of workers have poured into factories, resulting in the loss of workers themselves.
Salaries have also declined to a certain extent. However, under the regulation of the world's governments, the overall purchasing power of individuals has increased.
But this does not mean that by working honestly, you can make a lot of money in a short time and gain a high enough status in this society. This is obviously impossible.
If you want to do this, you must rely on some less formal means. During the time when Root was working as a porter at the station, he gradually figured out the forces around him. Some underground forces outside the government will definitely exist.
After all, the communication capabilities and transportation capabilities of this era are limited. It is impossible to complete the complete killing of gangs and the like, which is determined by productivity. With a sufficient economic foundation, towns and cities will definitely be able to support
Some active social groups.
The stevedores themselves have their own organization, which has a certain gang nature. Root has gained a high status in the process by relying on his experience. In particular, he has a considerable advantage in terms of force.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! On the one hand, it can cast some simple spells. On the other hand, before he became an exploration team member, his living conditions were not bad and regular.
They have systematic training in the legion. In terms of fighting, they are far beyond the people here.
At least far beyond the lack of organization in these gangs, in this case it can easily rely on its physical advantages to gain status within the gang.
Although it is impossible to become the boss in a short time, after gaining certain rights, he immediately rectified the internal system and changed the original loose style into a more organized one. On several occasions and other
During the competition among station workers, subordinates like him who had been trained in an organized manner could easily gain an absolute advantage in a group fight by relying on their tactical advantages.
There is no doubt that he used the method of training the army to train his gang members. Although he only had a dozen people under his command, they were arranged in a neat formation when the weapons they used were wooden sticks at most.
And attack under the corresponding command. The effect is much better than those in melee.
Root also won the unanimous support of the station workers in the process, and even the gang boss once wanted to marry his daughter to him. This was the simplest marriage.
And he also relied on the advantages established by the system he was familiar with to quickly integrate the underground world in the town.
"It's not that I demand too much from my brothers. You all know that existence like ours cannot be exposed to the sun. Even on the so-called road, no matter how majestic it is, what everyone really wants is not to bully men and dominate women.
To put it bluntly, everyone still has to support their families. For people like us, the most important thing is not to fight and kill. In the end, we still have to make money.
That's why I have set so many rules for everyone, because some lines cannot be touched. If we touch them, we may face the army.
Do you know why the local government doesn't care about us? Because we help them maintain order in the community. Without our presence, things like theft, robbery, and fraud would happen more frequently in the dark world. This
It has a very negative impact on their governance.
And if our existence leads to the occurrence of more serious such incidents, then the significance of our existence itself to the local government will disappear. Even if they pay higher costs to manage the local order, they will not be able to manage this situation.
Give us another piece.
At our current stage, the most important thing is not to fight and kill, but to clear the name quickly. We need to have enough profitable industry on the surface to support the lives of the brothers.
We don’t need so many people fighting. As you have seen, with military training, we can use half the number of people on the other side to make them run away, and everyone has to support their families. If everyone
We are all responsible for fighting, do you think we can still feed so many people?
So some people must continue to work, but I can guarantee that they can get more comfortable jobs, they don’t have to work so hard, and they can have better treatment than people other than us, but the premise is that everyone
You have to abide by the rules, otherwise what will be the consequences? I think you all know it." Root can be said to have broken down how to be a gangster, crushed it into pieces, and handed it over to these people.
What they want to do is not to dominate one party. In the final analysis, it is to make money, and the best way to make money is to monopolize the most profitable local industries. Monopolizing related industries will offend people, so violent conflicts may break out. This is what gangs are.
Reasons why members of an organization require a certain degree of armed force.
But if everything is invested in strengthening one's own force, then it is obvious that the cart is put before the horse. The greater the scale of development, the whiter the forces in these underground world will be, and the more they will look like serious business people.
And this group of people was originally organized by porters at the station. They were not involved in any illegal industry, but they monopolized the porters to a certain extent. They could negotiate better prices in this way, or they could rely on
There is strength in numbers to occupy some more profitable industries.
Root's purpose is naturally not to become a gang leader here. The influence he can exert in this world will not extend beyond this town at most, and if he goes too far, he will be annihilated.
With the gradual arrival of the electric power era, according to his experience, the planet is gradually ushering in the capital era, and taking advantage of the times to become the world's big capitalists and big trusts can truly control this world.
The social resources of the world.
What he is doing now is actually just completing the initial accumulation of capital. The next thing he wants to do is to invest, or even attract investment to some extent.
Their apparent identity is not a gang, but a legal company, and a security company with certain rights to hold weapons.
Under their influence, local security is actually better than most places, and the so-called protection fees have even been integrated with local taxes to a certain extent.
That is to say, government departments directly outsource tax collection work, because local officials find that they will encounter a lot of resistance if they go to carry out this work personally. But if they outsource it, they only need to wait to collect the money.
It can be said that the work is done while lying down.
This is also caused by the limited ability of the central government to control local governments and local governments over individuals in this era. Especially in the period when capital was budding, there was a considerable degree of chaos. This gave Root an opportunity, and now he
The development was somewhat beyond his expectations.
He did not expect that the local government would not have any drastic reaction to the fact that he had gathered so many people. But he soon thought that the officials of this era probably did not have the best understanding of the system and the power of population.
He was profound, so he did not realize the danger that might come from gathering such a large crowd.
From his own perspective, his current primitive accumulation of capital is not even more precious than the people he has gathered.
His original plan was to carry out primitive accumulation in this way. Then he would get himself a new false identity, then completely quit, run to another town, change his identity, and invest and build factories as a businessman.
But he didn't expect that the situation was different from what he imagined. The people he organized under the name of the security company were not suppressed by official forces at all. Then in the development process of this era, what can he do?
There are too many operations to do.
Among the people who entered the world of light flooding in the world of reincarnation, he was the only one who took the gangster path. The rest followed the official path according to their habits, or directly invested as businessmen with potential.
In emerging industries, he does not have so much available labor force that he can organize to do big things.
