Chapter 185: Because It's Cheap
Zhang Tong took Xiao Xiao to take the flying sword to Huaihai. Yes, that's right, it's a flying sword. Now the hottest means of transportation in the hive is not a shared tram or a bicycle or anything. It's a flying sword led by Daylight.
As a means of transportation, Zhang Tong relied on his own connections and eloquence to persuade him, especially in opening up the transportation route from Huaihai to the Hive.
The opening of this line is of great significance to Huaihai and Hive.
Because the flying sword flies fast, this greatly shortens the time from Huaihai to the hive.
The original hive city is Chongming Island, and it takes at least two hours to drive from the island to People's Square in the center of Huaihai.
In the past, although Chongming Island was a district of Huaihai, the locals of Huaihai did not have such a feeling, because it was too far away. A trip to the island can be considered a short trip. It's like going to a place like Zhouzhuang.
And now, because of the opening of the Flying Sword bus, the distance has been greatly shortened. Under the mediation of Zhang Tong (Huang Gang to be precise), Feijian Bus has set up three stations in Huaihai.
One is Pudong Lujiazui Station, one is People's Square Station, and the other is Hongqiao Hub Station.
The establishment of these three stations is of profound significance, and all of them are important places where the flow of people in Huaihai City is concentrated.
Because Huang Gang still has a very heavy task on his back, that is, to expand the population of hive citizens. Because the hive is planned to be a medium-sized city with three million citizens. And now we are far from that goal.
However, because of the appearance of the Flying Sword Bus, Huang Gang found that it seemed to be a lot easier to complete this goal.
Because the Flying Sword Bus has greatly shortened the distance between the Hive and Huaihai, from the first two hours of the drive, now the Flying Sword Bus only takes twenty minutes to arrive. It can be said that it is super invincible fast. It is very convenient to go from the hive to the People's Square, the hub station in the center of Huaihai City.
In this way, the interaction between the citizens of Huaihai and the citizens of the hive has become more ordinary.
After all, in Huaihai, a city that moves for an hour, twenty minutes of moving time is not even a hair, and if you don't even finish watching a movie on the road in Huaihai, are you embarrassed to say that I went out today?
There is a flying sword bus, and it has become extremely simple for Huaihai citizens to go to Zhang Tong's theme hot pot restaurant to eat. And it has become easy for Hive citizens to go to Huaihai for shopping and entertainment.
Now the Returnee Mutual Aid Association has begun to produce a large number of large flying swords, the kind of bus flying swords that can carry forty-five people at a time, and now nearly a hundred have been produced.
A great man once said that capital is the driving force behind the development of productive forces. This sentence is not wrong, those who return to their hometowns and cultivate immortals are also people, even if they were not human beings before, but after they came back, they also became ordinary people. They also need to eat, drink, sleep, and rest. They need to procure and need housing, which can only be obtained by monetary transactions in a country where the rule of law is strong.
So everyone is working hard now, in order to earn more. The immortal cultivators led by Wang Daochang are working overtime day and night to make all kinds of flying swords.
Because of the deepening of the communication between Huaihai and the hive, the flow of people began to become dense, and the demand for flying sword buses also increased.
In the earliest days, the Flying Sword bus was only for Zhang Tong's hot pot restaurant to pick up and drop off customers. Later, it slowly changed its taste.
Just like now, Zhang Tong and Xiao Xiao waited for ten minutes at the station of the Hive People's Square, and waited in line for the second Flying Sword Bus before it was their turn. Behind them, there was a long queue waiting.
"There are so many people on the current Flying Sword bus, is it so crowded?" Xiao Xiao hadn't been to the city for a long time, so she didn't know that there would be so many people queuing up on the current Flying Sword bus, and it was even a little hard to find. Because the Flying Sword bus is different from the traditional bus, the person who boards the Flying Sword must have a seat (in fact, it is a fixed point standing), and a temporary station ticket cannot be provided.
Therefore, the Flying Sword Bus is allowed to take forty people, so it can really only be forty people, and it cannot be overloaded. Otherwise, if you suddenly encounter a flock of birds or an airplane, and then there is a sudden brake, wouldn't the person who has no fixed position want to fly out?
Therefore, the flying sword bus is completely unable to carry out overloaded flights. Of course, it is possible to overload capable returnees and/or Ability Awakeners, provided they have the ability not to fall to their deaths after being thrown out.
"Ah, finally squeezed in. This flying sword bus is good at everything, but there are too many people and too many queues. If you come a little later, it's enough to get in line. In front of Xiao Xiao, a twenty-something programmer in his twenties, wearing a plaid shirt with eyes and carrying a Swiss Army knife bag, knew at a glance that he was a very young and newly hired programmer. Well, why did you say he was new to the company? Oh, because he still had hair.
"Eh, boss. Why do I feel like there are a lot of people in Hive City lately? Xiao Xiao looked around at the flying sword, and many people on the flying sword began to take out their mobile phones and prepare to turn on the black or watch a movie or something.
Before Zhang Tong could answer, the man in front of him, who looked like a young programmer, looked back at Xiao Xiao, and his eyes lit up instantly. Wow~ What a beautiful little girl.
The young and newly hired programmer accosted Zhang Tong before he could speak: "Little girl, are you the original resident of the hive?"
"Well, the first batch. Xiao Xiao looked the programmer up and down and came to the conclusion, well, it was a young and newly hired programmer who didn't run away, it was exactly the same.
"Ha, it looks like you haven't been out for a long time, or you're too unconcerned about what's going on around you. Don't you know, now that the Flying Sword Bus has been there, there are more people living in the hive. The young programmer stroked his hair, feeling as handsome as the male protagonist Hoshinohara in "Escaping Shameful but Useful". In addition to the initial strain of the lumbar spine caused by the irregular life of long-term overtime, there seems to be no shortcomings.
"Huh?" Xiao Xiao didn't know why this guy would suddenly talk to her, but she was very polite and didn't interrupt the other party.
"Let me tell you, after the Flying Sword Bus arrived, I immediately moved from Huaihai to the Hive. The young programmer was wise with his decision.
"You're working in Huaihai?"
"That's right. ”
"Living in a hive?"
"That's right. ”
"Why?"
"Because it's cheap!"
