The sun rose and the moon set, and in the blink of an eye, Somo had stayed in Mingyue Town for three days.

During the past three days, he was not in a hurry to go to Hope City to get a license to work and earn trading points. Instead, he tried his best to explore the situation and policies of the territory.

The pile of white paper with information recorded in front of the table was all he gained.

"It's not good. I thought that going to the city would allow me to show my talents, but now I feel more free in the villages and towns."

"And the cost here is also low."

Facing the sunlight coming from the window of the guest house, Sumo leaned on the back of his chair and moved his fingers slightly on the tabletop.

The first page of the white paper records basic information about the territory.

in.

From Mingyue Town to Sangtian Town, there is a distance of 70 kilometers.

From Sangtian Town to the city, it is a long drive of nearly 150 kilometers.

This Hope City may not sound big at first, but in fact, after the expansion of three towns, the total area far exceeds ordinary people's imagination of a wasteland city.

At the same time, the two free towns and urban areas are not managed by one policy, but adopt a separate management system.

Every place, even every street, may correspond to different management methods.

For example, in urban areas, individuals are not allowed to take out weapons or equipment that contain force for any reason.

Once caught, you will be fined at the least, or stripped of your identity directly at the worst.

In this regard, there are no restrictions in Mingyue Town. Pedestrians can boldly put guns on their waists. As long as they don't fire, there won't be any problems.

In addition, daily consumption is also different in several places.

After staying at the guest house in Mingyue Town for three days, and spending some money on food and drinks, Sumo checked his expenses as of today.

27 o'clock.

Of course, this number is still a bit high, but compared with the urban area, it still pales in comparison.

In the urban area, renting the cheapest one-bedroom house costs 500 points. Just one day's rent plus deed tax, water and electricity costs a full 18 points.

In addition, the food and drinks inside are one level more expensive than outside. Once the consumption on both sides is calculated, it can be concluded that the figure is basically maintained at five times. The gap is so large that it is disappointing.

Of course, for the residents who have "bought a house" there for a long time, this is another matter.

Most of them have good jobs. Not only do they not have to pay rent, but they also do not have to pay status tax, local tax and other miscellaneous taxes.

The fixed monthly income alone can ensure that they live an extremely comfortable life in the territory.

"If I go to work in the city, I can't take care of Huang Xiaojuan, I can't bring Oreos in, and I can't even research and make weapons there."

"It's worse than just finding a job in this field outside!"

Not working means sitting in vain.

According to the current consumption, the 1,000 points saved can only last for two months at most.

When he thought that he would have to purchase some materials and equipment to research weapons, and the cost might more than double, Sumo couldn't help but shudder, and gave up the idea of ​​going to work in the city.

"Fortunately, I chose a free market electronics worker. I just need to find a job in the town."

There were at least dozens of jobs related to electronic workers in the original identity list, but only this 10,000-point identity had four "free markets" in front of it.

And this is exactly the reason why Sumo chose.

Putting the place of work in the hands of others is not as satisfying as going to the market to select customers yourself.

He didn't come here to make money. It was the last word to have a lot of tools and instruments and enough free space.

"Hey, Xiaojuan, you're awake!"

Hearing the shaking of the chair, Huang Xiaojuan, who was still nestled in the bed, opened her tired eyes and nodded dully.

Her identity was that in order to save money, Somo only bought ordinary plantation workers. Now, after arriving in the territory and reporting, she will be automatically arranged to work.

Now, after working for two days, I feel that this work is ten times more intense than before in Qingguo territory.

Huang Xiaojuan's mentality has also undergone certain changes.

"Brother Zong, are you going to the city today?"

"Well, I have to go check out my job and see if I can rent a house."

"Ah? Do you want to rent a house in the city?" When Huang Xiaojuan heard about renting a house, she suddenly woke up and seemed a little unusually sensitive.

"No, I'm going to find a job in the town. Then we'll drive together!"

Sitting in front of the bed, Su Mo touched Huang Xiaojuan's forehead lovingly. He didn't say anything, but he still felt a little distressed in his heart.

When he purchased his identity before, he never expected that eight years later, the Tianyuan Territory still retained the most primitive human labor in agriculture, with not a single automated machine in sight.

And find out the reason.

Without the control of system upgrades, those magical plants brought back and the seeds discovered and cultivated later have basically gone astray.

For example, the "Xinghuo No. 3" wheat, which is now approaching the harvest period, can achieve a terrifying yield of 2,500 kilograms per mu, but the price is the same as fragile paper before drying.

If we really use an industrial harvester to harvest it, I'm afraid we won't be able to harvest even two hundred kilograms in the end, and the rest will be crushed into slag.

On the other side, the "Youyu No. 1" rice grown near the river has similar problems.

But its problem lies in the fact that the growth status of each plant is different, some mature early and some mature late.

This results in the need to manually distinguish and then pick according to batches, so as to ensure that the particles are returned to the warehouse to the greatest extent.

Under the huge workload, Huang Xiaojuan, a semi-"housewife", naturally couldn't bear the intensity of the work at first, and basically fell asleep every night when she came home.

"Ah, Brother Zong, you have to work in the town!"

"That's great. Bah, bah, bah!"

In the first half of the sentence, Huang Xiaojuan was still a little uncontrollably happy, but at the end, she changed her words again and again.

This time, it made both of them laugh, and it swept away the haze caused by ordinary life.

"You'd better go to work after dinner. I'll take a ride to the city. If I don't come back in the evening, you'll have to eat alone."

"By the way, I'll transfer 100 points to you. You can use it first if you have anything to do."

Open the game interface, Sumo raises his hand and swipes, 100 points are deducted, leaving 942 points.

The remaining three digits were certainly a huge sum of money in the Qingguo Territory, but they were not even considered well-off in the Tianyuan Territory.

At best, it can only be said to be slightly resistant to risks.

However, after having a plan, Sumo was not as anxious as ordinary residents. He waited until Huang Xiaojuan was sent away after eating, and then strolled to the place where he could catch a ride.

"How much does it cost if I go to the city?"

Standing in front of a capable car that could accommodate more than ten people, Sumo stepped forward to inquire about the price.

"It's 2 o'clock in the West District, 3 o'clock in the East District, leaving in 24 minutes!" He raised his hand and glanced at the time, and the man quoted the price without raising his head.

The West District is mainly an industrial park with a large number of jobs, and is the main place for work between the two towns and the city.

The East District is where residents live, with public facilities and residents' welfare facilities.

As luck would have it, after checking that the location of his work report was in the East District, Sumo could only take out 3 points again and had no choice but to get in the car.

Tianyuan territory can be different from Qingguo territory.

In the latter case, he could make a big deal, plunder enough trading points, and then leave without worrying about any risks.

But in the former case, Sumo fully believed that with the current management system of the territory, he might have just gained a batch of points on the front foot, and the territory guard team would arrive quickly on the back foot.

When the time comes, not only will the looted points be confiscated, but there is a high probability that they will be demoted to hard labor and have to work for free for several years before their sin can be ended.

"I still have to find a more serious job quickly and make more money."

He walked onto the bus and sat down in the back row. Looking at his colleagues who looked tired on other seats, Sumo turned his head to the outside of the bus and his thoughts began to wander.

He has no shortage of fantastic ideas.

In terms of basic skills, he also has the foundation he has laid before, which is enough to do some ordinary work.

Even when it comes to breaking through specific difficulties, with the help of system upgrades, Sumo is not afraid at all.

Right now, the difficulty is that there is no space for him to perform and a stage for him to shine.

"The main economic lifeline of Mingyue Town is basically catering and small commodities. There are very few shops related to core manufacturing or automated manufacturing. Even if I create the products, the probability that these people will be willing to pay is not high."

"Sangtian Town is mainly focused on planting and handicrafts. Under the current situation, if I can develop a machine that can solve the problem of harvesting these "fragile" plants."

I was thinking about business opportunities.

Although he has never actually been to Sangtian Town, judging from the information he collected, Sumo is already leaning towards this strange town.

Moreover, Huang Xiaojuan, a plantation worker, can also be assigned a job in Sangtian Town, and it is even easier.

No matter how you think about it, this is the best choice.

However, Sumo still had reservations about the specific arrangements until he saw the shops recruiting workers in the free market.

Soon, the speed of the Neng car was not slow after it started, and it only took nearly an hour to send everyone to the city.
