After eight years of transformation in the vast wasteland, the overall terrain has changed again and again under the influence of disasters.

Those humans and marine aliens who once lived in the deep sea have basically been forced to move to the New World due to the increasing intensity of disasters.

Unfortunately, the area of ​​the New World did not increase much in these eight years.

With little land and many people, there are disputes all over the continent.

Although the Tianyuan territory is not warlike, it is often attacked by foreign stragglers because the northern part of the territory is close to the coastline.

Therefore, according to the location distribution, the division of labor among the three major cities is also very clear.

Hope City, which focuses on the territorial economy, is located in the center of the entire territory and has the safest geographical conditions to drive economic development in the territory.

Tianyuan City, which focuses on the development of military conquests, is located on the west side of the territory close to the dwarves of all nations. There are a large number of military industrial research institutes and large war facilities to guard against dwarf sneak attacks.

The Murloc City, which focuses on a special economy, is located in the north of the territory where small wars are most frequent, and its main responsibility is to protect the back of the territory.

Driven by these three cities, there are four major super monopoly companies as enemies, plus hundreds of small and medium-sized development companies.

Tianyuan Territory is extremely balanced and strong in all aspects. Even if the number of people is much smaller than other super territories, it can still firmly occupy a vast land.

At the same time, some small human territories close to the surrounding areas may be independent on the surface, but secretly they have already become subsidiary cities of the territory.

Every once in a while, these territories will send caravans with various commodities to Hope City for trading.

Territories from other remote places will also come here to enter Hope City, eager to get opportunities for territory development.

Around this group of "real" migrant population, Hope City expanded again and again, gradually forming three areas outside the real core city circle.

One is called "Pojun", which is responsible for the troops stationed in the city defense.

One is called "Mingyue", which is responsible for trading, temporary residence, catering, etc. It is a trading place specially opened for foreigners.

One is called "mulberry field", which assists farming. There are hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land, as well as experimental fields for various novel varieties.

For example, the current location of the station is exactly in Mingyue Town, the outermost part of Hope City.

Although it was just after noon at this time, the sun was high in the sky, bringing with it a rolling heat wave.

But outside the Great Hope Station, there are quite a few people going to other territories, coming to pick up relatives, traveling around selling small commodities, and carrying passengers into the city.

Coming out of the back door of the Wang Quan Guide, he led Huang Xiaojuan and Oreo, and was mixed in with the dense flow of people. It was not until he squeezed out to the exit to verify his identity that Sumo took off the simple mask on his face and breathed a sigh of relief.

He had just arrived in Hope City, and he was already a little uncomfortable.

Compared with Hope Village eight years ago, today's Hope City has developed to such an extent that he can no longer recognize any connection between this place and the previous one.

Whether it is Guoshu Mountain or Tieshi Mountain, these landmarks have all disappeared.

Nowadays, as far as the eye can see outside the station, there are planned asphalt roads and six- or seven-story high-rise buildings everywhere, giving people a feeling of returning to a civilized era.

And what is more familiar is.

"Hey, I'm unfamiliar with you guys. Are you new here?"

"Take a taxi? Take a taxi?"

"Modding, rubbing~~"

"If you are going to Mingyue Town or Sangtian Town, I have a three-seater car that can fit you all in. It only takes one transaction point to drive you there, ensuring a full ride experience."

"."

As soon as they saw the crowd pouring out of the exit gate, the "drivers" who had been waiting at the gate rushed over like bees smelling the fragrance of flowers.

Among them, after seeing that although Somo looks ordinary, his walking posture and temperament are extraordinary.

Most of the drivers with decent cars gathered around and started using all kinds of clichés to solicit customers.

Finding one of them who was more pleasing to the eye, Sumo raised his brows and cupped his hands.

When the other party saw this, he immediately happily led the way. After a while, the two of them passed through the twists and turns of the station and arrived in front of a slightly worn-out three-wheeled vehicle in the parking lot.

"Hey, don't think my car is old, but it has many functions!"

With that said, the dark-skinned man walked over first and inserted the key.

As he pressed the button on the front of the kinetic vehicle, he saw the rear seats begin to slowly change.

First, four poles were raised, and then a curtain-like thing was supported on both sides. When the man pulled it, it just covered the open-air carriage, blocking the harsh sunlight from the outside world.

"Ha, this is really useful!"

After touching the pole and realizing that this thing was not an ordinary iron pole, but an alloy-like substance, Somo couldn't help but take a high look.

To judge the development of a territory, one is to look at the ceiling of cutting-edge technology, and the other is to look at the degree of civilian use of ordinary technology.

Being able to use alloys for passenger drivers outside the station is enough to show how rapidly the current Tianyuan territory is developing.

"Brother, go to Mingyue Town or Sangtian Town. If you go to Mingyue Town, there are two of you and one dog. According to the pricing standard, the transaction point is 0.3."

"It's a little further to go to Sangtian, and it costs 0.5 trading points."

After inviting the two people and the dog to sit in the carriage, the dark-skinned man took out a sign with "Hope City Public Passenger Price List" and handed it over.

"Seeing as this is your first time here, don't worry, everything is now strictly regulated by the territory. For example, the business of illegal car drivers on our planet has long been impossible!"

"If I charge you one more point and you complain to me to the transportation department, I will be taken away to do hard labor tomorrow. It's not worth it!"

Seeing that Somo was looking at the explanation behind the price list attentively, the dark-skinned man was not in a hurry. He took out the water bottle placed in the back seat and drank it while explaining patiently.

"Okay, no trouble then, let's go to Mingyue Town"

The two places are 40 kilometers apart, and the heat wave makes people's scalp numb. The 0.3 point charge is not high.

I saw that this dark-skinned man was young, probably around twenty-four or five years old, but his attitude was so gentle and courteous.

Sumo handed the sign back, and his impression of this strange Hope City improved a little.

"Okay!"

Not afraid of Somo running away, after hearing his destination, the dark-skinned man turned around and started the car, driving on the asphalt road toward Mingyue Town.

Along the way, when he saw some novel things along the way, Sumo didn't pretend to be a fake and kept asking questions.

It didn't take long for the two to become familiar with each other.

The swarthy man's real name is Yang Wu, and he joined the territory two years ago.

It was just that at that time, he was only seventeen years old. He was still young and did not have any skills, so he was unable to catch up with the first wave of dividends of the territory's take-off.

This led to me hanging out for five or six years. In addition to having a territorial identity, I was also doing the most ordinary job of pulling a truck.

"I am satisfied. With this identity, I have surpassed 99% of the ordinary people in the wasteland. It is useless to think about anything else!"

"Besides, now that I am soliciting customers every day, I can eat and drink, and I can also save some money. Where can I find such a comfortable job in the wasteland!"

Yang Wu shouted with great enjoyment as the hot wind blew towards him.

Just like the natives who lived in the imperial capital in their previous lives.

Although they do not have a prominent family background, nor do they have high-paying jobs that everyone envies.

But with just one identity and a dilapidated house, they can surpass the efforts of ordinary people by ten or hundreds of years.

"Brother Su, you just came to the territory. I'm afraid you were a big shot before. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to afford the status of our Tianyuan territory."

"Me? I'm just an ordinary person. I just got a little lucky and made a fortune."

Seeing Yang Wu turn around and ask curiously, Su Mo shook his head angrily and turned his gaze to the rolling farmland beside the asphalt road.

There are the magical plants he left behind before he left, plus the subsequent harvest from the tree people's territory.

The fields in Tianyuan Territory are growing extremely well, they are completely self-sufficient, and there is a certain surplus.

In addition to importing food from outside, even if there is a disaster, the territory will probably have enough surplus food to survive.

"Hey, are these people selling watermelons?"

In hot weather.

Looking along the road, Sumo found that there was a watermelon stall set up on the roadside. There were many people standing in front of the door. Sumo couldn't help but marveled.

This road is the only road from the station to Mingyue Town, and there must be many travelers passing by on the way.

In hot weather, even if this watermelon is sold a little more expensive, there will definitely be no shortage of sales.

really.

After hearing the word "watermelon", Yang Wu didn't speak yet. He sat on the other side with Huang Xiaojuan and stuck out Oreos on the ground.

Everyone, including the dog, raised their heads, their eyes full of desire.

"Okay, I'll buy one when we park the car."

Instructing Yang Wu to pull over, Su Mo jumped out of the car and walked all the way to the watermelon stall.

"A pound of watermelon sells for 1 dime, which is equivalent to 0.05 points in trading points."

"If you think about it, a 15-pound watermelon costs 0.75 trading points, which is a bit expensive!"

For ordinary people in Qingguo Territory, they can only survive by earning one point a month.

In the Tianyuan Territory, despite the increase in income, watermelon is still a very expensive consumer product. Most people would not be willing to buy one even if it is during the holidays.
