Chapter 1: The Beginning of the Noisy Hive City

Hive City is a completely new city. Chongming Island was originally inhabited, and there were also various buildings. However, in order to build Hive City, all the original buildings were razed. The entire Hive City has been completely rebuilt.

A white cloth is good for painting, and the city can be built more rationally without the constraints of the old city. Urban construction can be horizontal and vertical, and all functional areas and plans can be made into mere order. If you look down on Hive City from above, then all the areas of the city are a grid of fields, which looks neat and pleasing to the eye.

It's like the obsessive-compulsive players in Cities: Skylines who built cities, with no weird horns or weird arcs.

Although the construction is not creative enough, the space utilization rate is extremely high. It's like the ancient capital city of Wangcheng. Of course, it is also necessary to learn the lessons of the capital. At that time, the capital's sewer pipes were buried without taking into account the fact that the capital would have a population of tens of millions in the future, nor did it take into account the possibility of increased precipitation, so now the capital can be flooded as long as it is not a heavy rain in the south.

There are also many bridges in the capital, and when they were designed and built, it was concluded that there were only 50 cars open to traffic in an hour, so they were designed according to this standard. There are also roads in the capital, many of which were designed to commute 500 cars a day when they were built.

Anyway, there are quite a lot of designs of this kind in the capital. And now there are more than three million vehicles in the capital. So the capital of New China has become the first block. The brightness of the red light at the rear of the car lit up by the traffic jam on the Third Ring Road allows satellites in low-earth orbit to directly photograph it, which is a red stream visible to the naked eye, and the Chinese red of the capital can be directly seen at the edge of the atmosphere.

Hive City cannot repeat the mistakes of the capital, so the Hive city pavement is very wide, and the general streets are built into four lanes. The main roads are all eight lanes. and the introduction of a more advanced urban public transport system. The three-pronged approach of a street rail car, a high-altitude light rail, and a subway.

Domestically produced BYD's pure electric buses have also been put into use in cities. According to the plan, in the future, the interval between each shift of subway, light rail and other transportation shall not exceed three minutes. And the interval between buses should not exceed ten minutes.

Of course, now that Hive City has just been built, the population is still very small. As a result, the traffic pressure is not heavy, and the city's public transport system is not fully operational. After all, only the first urban area has been opened, which is the central urban area of the future. There are various government agencies concentrated here, as well as schools and hospitals. And the big shopping malls that can be ranked in the top five in the future of Hive City are also opening this time.

And now the propaganda has begun to be played. Publicity has also begun to be made about the benefits of Hive City, and the government is beginning to attract Awakeners and Returnees from all over the country. Special abilities are very valuable, or certain exemplary characters (such as Zhang Tong) can be given priority to get better distribution.

Although it is said that the government divides the house in the form of low monthly rent, the order of the division is still very important. It's a thousand months, you live in the center of the community, and when you open the window, there is a small park with a fitness field in the community. And where I live is along the street, and when I open the window, there is noise and exhaust fumes. You live on the fifteenth and twenty floors, and I live on the first floor, the second floor, or the top floor or something. They all pay the same 1,000 yuan a month, and there is still a gap in this.

In order to avoid contradictions, everyone uses the method of drawing lots to distribute. Of course, special groups of people (such as Zhang Tong) can choose by themselves.

Anyway, in a word, the earlier you come, the more benefits you get. If you come late, you can only pick up other people's leftovers, but this leftovers are still delicious. If it's a little later, then you can only drink some soup and water to soak in rice. If you come last, you may have to run out of food and be responsible for washing the dishes.

The bait thrown out by Hive City is very fragrant, but it is difficult to say how many fish it can attract to the bait. Although it is possible to get a house at a very low price, it still takes some courage to abandon the connections and achievements you have made in other cities and choose to start over.

But there is no shortage of crab eaters in China. Especially with housing prices high in many cities, there are always people willing to try their luck.

On the bridge across the sea to the Hive, a domestically made MPV is carrying a family of three and their carry-on luggage to the Hive.

"Wow~!The sea!" Lin Miao, a sixteen-year-old high school girl, was very excited to lie on the window and look at the sea. Although I have seen it many times on TV, the magnificence of the sea can only be understood by actually seeing it with your own eyes.

The man driving was Lin Miao's father, Lin Tiantong. He looked at his daughter with a very happy look, and smiled: "How wonderful, let's move here in the future." You love the sea, you can see it every day. ”

The middle-aged woman sitting in the co-pilot, that is, Lin Miao's mother, Wang Yan, glanced at her husband: "Hmph, what you said is so light." After all, it's not that you can't afford to buy a house in Xi'an. I can't even afford a school district house, how many things have Miaomiao wasted in studying over the years, and how many people have begged. Our family of three is crammed into a small house of 40 square meters. Miao Miao is a big girl now, and she doesn't even have a separate room. You said that you went on geological surveys every day, and you didn't even find out a house at home. ”

Lin Tiantong was counted out without temper: "Hehe." This... I would have thought that housing prices in Xi'an could rise so much. My 7,000 yuan a month is already good in Xi'an, and you see my classmate Lao Wang, who is only getting 5,000 yuan a month now. Who would have thought that the school district housing in Xi'an could rise to nearly 20,000 square meters. The average price of second-hand houses in good communities has exceeded 14,000. ”

Wang Yan sighed: "Except for the monthly household expenses of eating, drinking, water, electricity, and coal, and the wonderful cram school, the money earned by our husband and wife is less than 5,000 yuan a month." Save up to 60,000 yuan a year, and this is not enough to receive a red bomb. My colleague got married, my friend gave birth to a child, and the child was admitted to university, and now I have a headache when I hear it, and I can't sleep at night. ”

"Lin Tiantong, tell me, why did I fall in love with you back then? You stinky geological investigator, you want money, no money, no power, you are covered in stinky sweat, and you are not at home all year round. Back then, my Wang Yan was also a flower in the factory, why was it picked by you, a big horse monkey. ”

Lin Tiantong laughed when he heard this: "Because I was so handsome when I was young!"

"Come on, don't you look in the mirror when you wash your face in the morning? With your shoehorn-like face, can you say handsome? You're not afraid to kill the black pig in the pigsty." ”

Lin Miao, who was sitting in the back row, came over: "Mom, I know why." ”

"Huh?"

"I guess you must have responded to the call of the country back then, volunteered for the construction of the old third line, and sent warmth to the people. That's why it's cheaper, Comrade Lin. You're contributing to the country. ”

"Listen, Lao Lin, listen. Or my daughter is sensible. You're a fart. ”

"Okay, okay, I'm a fart. Specifically after your ass. I'll go where you go, okay. ”

"No, I can't. A fart follows me every day, don't stink people to death. You can't do it anymore, or your daughter is amazing. I got the priority of the hive, and I was able to choose a house here. If it weren't for your daughter, you would still be able to transfer your work relationship here? You just need to do geological testing here, and you don't have to go around the country every day to investigate, and you can see how much light you have stained your daughter. "Wang Yan likes to scare her husband when she has nothing to do.

This old husband and wife are used to this way of communication. Lin Tiantong didn't care either, nor did he get angry. He just laughed and said, "That's right, you don't see who gave birth to the daughter." ”

"I just don't know what the house is. I heard that I have already brought some decorations, just buy furniture. Miaomiao's student status can also fall into the hive, and the college entrance examination can also be directly admitted to Huaihai's university......" As soon as she talked about these things, Wang Yan couldn't stop thinking about it all the time.

The vehicle drove all the way to the first phase of the urban area of Hive City, and after finding the relevant personnel for handover, Lin Miao's family got their own house. It is a community of 12 houses, all 35 stories high. At present, the community has one of the highest hive occupancy rates, with a 30% occupancy rate.

"It's a nice neighborhood, it's empty. Wang Yan is very satisfied with the construction of the community, but now the whole Hive City is not popular. At present, the largest number of hives are public servants of various government agencies. Because the government has to come in to put up the framework, so that the residents will come in.

Thousands of public servants from various government agencies have settled in the hive, and so far, the actual inhabitants (non-civil servants) of the hive have just over 5,000.

All the residential buildings are decorated, and naturally it cannot be luxuriously decorated or hardcovered. It's just the same basic decoration as the ordinary Country Garden or the ordinary Evergrande real estate. Hydroelectric floor tiles were laid and the walls were painted. The kitchen is made of basic wall cabinets and stoves, and the bathroom is simply equipped with a sink and toilet. Very good decoration is not counted, and very poor decoration is not counted.

If you are not picky, in fact, this kind of house can be moved in directly as long as you buy furniture.

Lin Miao's family is actually quite satisfied with this house. Because they used to live in an old house of 40 square meters, and the new house with a small 3 bedroom and 2 living rooms of 100 square meters has not yet been lived in by their family.

Lin Miao was very excited to jump around the room: "Ha! I have my own room!" This is what she is most excited about, although it is only a small room of twelve square meters, but it is great to have her own independent space.

"The house is nice, but let's go buy some furniture first. Settle this down, the clerk is saying that there is a freshly opened furniture shop on this street. Wang Yan took her husband and daughter to see the furniture first, and since she decided to move here to live, she had to prepare all kinds of things. But the first month of life is certainly the most chaotic. The small house in Xi'an has been rented out, and there can be more than 1,000 rents per month to subsidize, just enough to make up for the rent here, and there are still a few hundred yuan left, so that it can be more generous.

When people reach middle age, the economic pressure is getting bigger and bigger, and if there is no way to make more money, then they can only find ways to save and break a penny in half to spend.

After shopping around the furniture store and ordering some transitional furniture, Lin Miao was already hungry and tired. She touched her belly and said, "Mom, I'm hungry." ”

"Okay, let's go eat first. I can't cook today. ”

"Let's go to the restaurant!" Lin Miao's eyes lit up. Because my mother is in charge of the family's financial power, my mother is too picky, and it is rare to go to the restaurant to eat.

"Okay, let's go to the restaurant. "No matter how you say it today, it's a housewarming and it's worth celebrating.

"No, I think this restaurant is good. ”

"Oh, no, Mom, you're too picky. Can't we go to a bigger hotel?"

"Is it delicious to cook food in a big hotel? All big restaurants are deceitful, and they all eat decoration. The delicious ones are all small restaurants. I think that's pretty good. Besides, we have come all the way, do you see that there is a big hotel in Hive City now?"

Wang Yan didn't care whether Lin Miaoxi liked it or not, she pulled her to the door curtain of this small restaurant. I saw a sign with black characters on a white background hanging above the door of this small shop, with four big characters written on it: Lao Zhang's shop.

The family pushed the door open.

"Welcome. A warm male voice came, and a man who was busy in the back kitchen separated by a half-breasted wall raised his head: "The menu is on the wall, this is all the food that my little shop can offer." If you don't dislike it, just sit down and eat. ”
