Chapter 53 Public Transport System

No matter what the people in charge of those chambers of commerce think, Cha Cha Ke is only dealing with them while carrying out another policy of Li Hong. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After the expansion, Spartacus Avenue has a length of nearly one kilometer of stone roads, and the length of the stone roads that have not yet been paved is about two kilometers.

The length of three kilometers, judging from the speed of walking, it takes more than half an hour to walk from one side to the other, which will greatly waste some people's time, in the case of Bokei Farm, there are many residential areas in the southwest or southeast of the town, and the farm is in the northwest of the town, and the residents have to spend at least more than an hour a day on the road, let alone the fishermen who have to travel farther. If you use the herbivorous dragon car to travel, this time can be shortened to less than ten minutes, and the round trip is at most twenty minutes.

Therefore, Li Hong plans to build a bus system, and for the time being, there are not many stops to be set, one station is set up on both sides of Spartacus Street, and one station is set up on the side of the river, so that you can raise your hand to stop at any time on the road if you are not satisfied with the car. In fact, this bus system does not cost Li Hong too much money, because almost all of the original herbivorous dragon cars in this world are eliminated, the space of the vehicle is not large, and the anti-bump performance is not very good.

However, this fee is a bit controversial, Li Hong originally planned not to charge any money, but this was opposed by almost everyone, and only Heimdall and Blaki, the system-summoned characters, did not express an opinion.

"Young master, although I also understand that you want to give some benefits to these townspeople, it is very likely that the people who will benefit from this are not the townspeople of our town, and we have no way of figuring out whether the people who get on the bus are townspeople." Steward Deacon said a little embarrassed, originally Deacon steward planned to come up with some solutions before reporting to Li Hong, but after thinking about it, there was only one way left in the end, that is, charging, "The fee charged is not very much, and it only takes a steel hammer to walk from the south gate to the river." By saving that time, the townspeople who have regular jobs in Pokey will be able to earn more than that. ”

"So, have you ever thought about getting on or off the bus on the way?" Li Hong's question was obviously a mistake to Deacon's steward, the bus system was a novelty for him, he had never heard of such a situation before, and the most common thing was that caravans drove herbivorous dragon carts to take some people from one settlement to another.

In the past, Li Hong's post station was fresh enough for Deakin to be in charge, but it was easy to calculate the price, because the distance between each post station was relatively far, and the price could be roughly calculated from the distance, and this was also a commercial behavior, and there was no psychological pressure at all to collect fees. But according to Li Hong's bus system, strictly speaking, it is not a commercial activity, it can only be said to be some measures to benefit the people of Bokai Town, and the fees are more used to maintain the maintenance costs of these facilities, rather than purely making profits.

Deacon couldn't figure out how to solve this problem for a while, the steel hammer was already the smallest denomination of the world's common currency, where could he find a smaller denomination currency.

————————

When Steward Deacon was still struggling, Li Hong threw him a white scale with a little blue, and Steward Deacon looked at it twice and recognized that it was the scale of the White Dragon. The scales of the White Speed Dragon were not very large, but the piece held by the steward Deacon was made smaller, about only about a quarter of the original size, less than the size of the palm of the hand, and the perimeter was well polished, at least it would not scratch the skin. However, as to why Li Hong threw this scale, Deacon has little clue for the time being.

"The purchase price of a piece of white speed dragon scales is roughly 8 to 10 steel hammers, and the production cost of this small piece in your hand is more than 2 steel hammers, and I plan to use such scales as a proxy currency for buses. Deacon, what do you think. Li Hong said a series of things, but he still didn't get to the point, he wanted Deacon to understand it himself.

After listening to Li Hong's words, the Deacon steward also began to think, and muttered, "The production cost is more than 2 steel hammers, so we have to reduce the existence value of the scales, so as to prevent others from making them to defraud money." And the ingredients are easy to come by, so you don't have to invest too many extra resources. So, Master Thor, how are you going to price this scale? ”

"1 steel hammer and two pieces." Li Hong thought about the price very early, "It takes 1 steel hammer to take the bus from the south gate to the river, and the north gate to the south gate or the river only needs a scale, which is the lowest price." You need to pay a minimum of one scale to get on or off the bus on the way. ”

Deakin steward did not object to the price decided by Li Hong, although it is a benefit to the people, but it is still necessary to charge a low fee, the employment of the coachman, the maintenance of the vehicle, and the feeding of the herbivorous dragon, these all need to cost money. And such a convenience residents will also be happy to pay a little money, the expenditure of half a steel hammer can leave them nearly half an hour, and this half an hour they can earn more than this number, save effort and earn more money, so why don't residents support it?

At the beginning, the Bokai bus was planned to have only four stations for the time being, the big riverside, the temporary north gate, the temporary south gate and the post station. The post station in Pokai Town is also outside the town, but this is not because it is placed outside out of scruples like Snow Forest City, but because the main road designated by the kingdom is there, and the post station is on the edge of the main road, so that the truck can travel steadily.

The four sites were under Li Hong's nod, because the system didn't have anything like a site to build, but it didn't matter, the site only needed to build a ticket booth and a place to shelter from the sun and rain. The construction of the site was not intended to hide from anyone at all, and the inhabitants knew that what was being built was similar to that of a post station, and it was not very noteworthy.

But there are still more shrewd people who have noticed what the general purpose of the site will be, and some businessmen are still wondering if they can make any profit from it. (To be continued.) )
