The group of people passed through the broken city gate and soon entered Qinggang New City, which had been under construction for a long time.

Different from the advanced industrial area that I saw at first sight when I came in last time, the current new town is obviously more like a modern city.

Neat floor tiles are laid at the entrance to the city, and there are rows of standard houses on both sides.

Unfortunately, the influx of people far exceeds the population absorption limit of this land, and the original planning of the new city also determines that they cannot generate too many jobs, so they can only absorb it through a large amount of infrastructure.

This approach directly resulted in the fact that most of the houses built on both sides of the street were residential buildings and could not be rationally used to form shops to stimulate consumption.

Its disadvantages can be seen by even a layman like Xie Hu at a glance.

However, if it were in the past, Yehu might have ridiculed him directly.

Now, when he spoke, he glanced at Somo involuntarily and was not in a hurry to express his opinion.

"Well, teacher, their approach seems a bit inconsistent with economic development, right?"

"That's not necessarily the case."

Sumo chuckled and shook his head.

The method of material production determines the industrial construction model.

Every change in productivity will continuously improve the status of workers at the bottom.

"As long as the starch and protein production machines in Qinggang Shelter are not broken, they are fully capable of supporting hundreds of thousands of idle people."

"But if they give these people a decent job and give them spending power."

"For example, what if they want to purchase some items that Sunny Harbor Sanctuary only has in stock and cannot continue to manufacture?"

"In other words, if we provide a large number of entertainment activities, how can we make up for the materials lost during those activities?"

Sumo didn't explain it too thoroughly, but everyone present was not a fool.

Even the hunting tiger understood it.

Although Qinggang New City has received a large number of homeless people, they do not want to pay extra for this.

Providing these people's daily survival needs is already the limit, and if it continues to be wasted, it will be a losing business.

Unless these people show more value, or the city opens up a new trade route.

Only when the work of these people can generate external benefits can they receive internal status and reasonable treatment.

In fact, this is the current situation in the new city.

The reception of homeless people is not closed here. As long as they are willing to come, relief meals will be distributed.

Relief meals last fourteen days.

If you still want to eat on the fifteenth day, you can only go and participate in the construction tasks arranged by the new city.

But these constructions cannot bring development to the new city.

It's like building a hundred or five hundred residential houses, just to give homeless people a place to live.

Materials are still being consumed continuously, with no external replenishment.

Therefore, what is distributed to the homeless is only a simple relief meal.

If they want to exchange for new clothes, they can only exchange them with the meals they receive.

This is obviously not good news for the homeless people who dream of being treated as normal as the gopher residents.

"So the previous war was not forced by them, but the wanderers took the initiative?"

Hunting Tiger said thoughtfully.

"That's right. The plunder caused by the war can generate external benefits, so the wanderers can get additional material rewards, and it will not consume the original storage of Clear Harbor Shelter."

Sumo nodded, somewhat satisfied that Yehu's brain was finally put to good use.

"So I guess Hades must have discovered this, and he asked us to come to the gathering today."

“You just want to solve a problem that has no external benefits?”

Kevin quickly answered.

"Correct, he must have seen how our Western Suburban League operates."

Speaking of which, the internal operation of the western suburbs is not very healthy.

It's just because Hunter Tiger, Aldrich, and Kevin are willing to consume the shelter's previous storage.

The three shelters have been undergoing a lot of infrastructure construction recently and are in great demand.

Once they cannot afford the cost of infrastructure, or the infrastructure has been completed, they have lost demand.

The trade framework that was finally built with such difficulty will soon face huge operational problems.

For this, the only solution can only be open source.

Either generate a trade surplus and plunder cheap materials or labor from further places to satisfy the cycle.

Either get game or system rewards, and a mine or resource point appears directly from the void.

Or simply.

If you have no money, you can directly join forces to start a war. As long as you can capture a gopher man's refuge, the materials inside will be able to maintain the operation of the alliance for a long time, and continue to build more infrastructure to attract labor to join the enlargement "plate".

besides.

Sumo doesn't have any better ideas yet.

Could Hades have a better idea?

"Let's go, we should go to this meeting. I really want to see what this over 100-year-old manager can do."

Lewis, who was in charge of the reception last time, is still standing in a conspicuous place.

The difference is that at this time, the blond minister is no longer as arrogant as last time and has become much humbler.

Seeing the Western Suburbs Alliance coming together, he quickly stepped forward and said respectfully:

"Master managers, Master Hades is already waiting in the conference room."

"Huh." Liehu exhaled through his nose and glared at the humble blond: "We came all the way here to attend the meeting, not to mention eating, and we don't even have any saliva?"

Compared to the first time I went to Tianyuan Refuge, the generous treatment was.

Liehu glanced at Lewis, who was at a loss at this time, with some disdain, snorted again and walked forward.

"Forgive me, that's just his character. Please send someone to lead us."

Kevin walked behind and apologized, but his smiling expression looked even more arrogant.

"No problem, sirs, please come this way!"

He quickly assigned a few guards to lead the way, and Lewis did not dare to express any displeasure until everyone disappeared.

There is no way, since Hades woke up and dealt with a large number of managers, now everyone in Clear Harbor Shelter is in danger.

No one knows whether he will be the next unlucky person to be dealt with, so he can only put away his past arrogance.

Even if he is now being ridiculed by the Western Suburbs Alliance, he can only endure this tone.

"Damn it Edmund, for making this mess and making me suffer too."

Looking at the wall bitterly, he realized that another manager had arrived in the distance. Lewis could only take a deep breath and put on a professional smile.

But deep down in his heart he could guarantee it.

Now, it's definitely the decades since Clear Harbor Sanctuary has established itself.
