Chapter 681 The difference between the entrance fee
But Xu Peng didn't know whether he should tell Lin Cheng these words. After all, he just decided to hold on to this thigh. If he backed down from the first request made by others, he didn't need to say anything.
I no longer have the shame to continue following others around.
"What, are you having trouble?"
Although Xu Peng said nothing, Lin Cheng still saw the other party's embarrassment from his expression, so he asked: "Didn't I say that if you have any difficulties, just ask, and I will help you with everything I can solve."
To solve it, all you have to do is help me find a house that is for sale."
"It's a little difficult, but... leave it to me, I promise to help Brother Lin find a place to live tomorrow!"
After hearing Lin Cheng's words, Xu Peng finally gritted his teeth and decided that even if it cost him the possibility of being arrested by the night watch team, he must help Lin Cheng find a house before tomorrow!
"Well, I believe you can do it."
Seeing Xu Peng's desperate look, Lin Cheng couldn't help laughing. Although he had seen through Xu Peng's purpose early on, he didn't think there was anything wrong with what the other party did. In the apocalypse, everyone has their own
The law of survival, and Xu Peng's law of survival can be regarded as the cleanest one in his opinion. Only when you pay will you be rewarded. In his current opinion, Xu Peng has a good character and is very diligent. If the other party
If he keeps this kind of character, he won't mind having such a younger brother in Pingcheng.
"By the way, didn't you say that after the physical examination, you still have to pay the city fee? Why did we come in directly?"
After explaining the housing matter, Lin Cheng then remembered that his group had not yet paid the city fee, so he asked Xu Peng.
"Oh yes!"
Hearing Lin Cheng mention this matter, Xu Peng, who was thinking about hugging his thigh, realized it and quickly led everyone to walk to an ancient house on the street corner in front of him. As he walked, he said: "In the past, all the fees for entering the city were spent.
At that time, I handed it in directly in the medical examination room, but later, as more and more survivors came to Pingcheng to survive, the medical examination room could not accommodate so many supplies, so it was changed to the courtyard in the city..."
"There are supplies that can't fit in one room... I think Pingcheng can make a fortune just by charging admission fees."
Hearing Xu Peng's words, Meng Yi couldn't help curling her lips and muttering in a low voice with disdain.
Although Meng Yi's voice was kept very low, Lin Cheng, who had a keen sense of hearing, could still hear it clearly. He couldn't help but smile and said to her: "Nothing can be analyzed from a single perspective. Pingcheng now has
With a population of nearly one million, as the 'government' agency here, whether it is to maintain stability or for whatever reason, it must increase its manpower to maintain public security here, and if it increases its manpower, it will have to pay more wages.
So where do you think these wages come from?”
"Brother Lin is right."
Xu Peng, who was leading the way, nodded repeatedly after hearing Lin Cheng's words, "The current situation is no better than before the apocalypse. While having a large population, it is difficult for Pingcheng to maintain a stable income. Under such circumstances, it is natural that
It is necessary to maintain the operation of the institution from all aspects. Of course, the corruption that Director Meng is worried about actually exists objectively, but for most survivors, as long as the current peaceful scene can be maintained here, they do not care about themselves
Where did the city entry fees paid go..."
While they were talking, everyone had unknowingly walked into the courtyard. Looking at the bustling crowd in the courtyard, Lin Cheng was not in a hurry this time. He led everyone to find a corner and sat down temporarily.
"The entry fee for everyone is not fixed. You can choose to pay the minimum amount, which is a piece of bread or a bottle of drinking water, and you can go directly to the city. You can also choose to hand over more precious materials, such as cigarettes.
Items such as medicine enhancement liquid, and if you choose to hand over these scarce items, depending on the degree of these scarce items, the material collection department will issue tent residence vouchers or an equivalent amount of Pingcheng's common currency to the survivors who paid the materials..."
After sitting firmly in the corner, he glanced at the people queuing up to pay the entrance fee. Xu Peng explained the rules for paying the entrance fee to everyone in detail. After hearing these rules, Lin Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked
: "Then if I directly pay dozens of bottles of strengthening liquid, will the other party directly give me a house?"
"Cough cough cough——!!!"
Hearing Lin Cheng's words, Xu Peng was immediately choked and couldn't help coughing. He waved his hands repeatedly to stop Lin Cheng from speaking any more. After taking a breath, he whispered to him with a wry smile: "My brother Lin! Let's
Let’s not talk about whether you have so many strengthening liquids. Even if you do, if you really dare to take out dozens of strengthening liquids at once, I don’t know whether you will be given a house, but we can’t even think about it again in the future.
See the sunrise and sunset! Although there is no explicit prohibition on the purchase and sale of enhancement fluids in Pingcheng, I have heard from several friends that the higher-ups are actually not very happy to see ability users who are not part of the military buying and selling enhancement fluids. If you...
If you take out so much strengthening liquid, neither the white or the underworld will let you go, a newcomer without any protection! If you really have the strengthening liquid and want to take action, I can take you there after you pay the entrance fee.
You can do business in this place, but you must not show your wealth here. These civil servants are not idlers. If you let them find a little bit of profit, your life in Pingcheng will never be easy in the future!"
"All right!"
Seeing that Xu Peng was frightened like this just by a casual mention, Lin Cheng nodded speechlessly and decided to listen to him for the time being. The most important thing was to settle his group properly first.
After sitting in the yard and waiting for a long time, when all the lights on the streets outside came on, it was finally Lin Cheng's turn to enter and pay the entrance fee. After Xu Peng's reminder, Lin Cheng also paid the fee for everyone in a low-key manner.
I paid a minimum entrance fee, and then took a few city entry passes and was chased out by the staff like flies.
"So damn powerful... I said, I remember this place wasn't like this when I first left. How come these people have become so virtuous after not coming back for a few months?"
Inexplicably rolling his eyes, Lin Cheng didn't feel anything at all, but Chen Sansheng couldn't help it. As a local snake who had been among the black and white in Pingcheng, this guy had never suffered this kind of aggrievedness.
If Lin Cheng hadn't told him not to cause trouble at the beginning, he probably would have slapped the fat man in charge of organizing the house in the face! (To be continued)
