Chapter 396: The house is for living

"A little?"

Li Jian said in disbelief: "I still knew some things before I came here, I heard that the mineral water here is sold for more than ten yuan of soft sister coins, and fresh vegetables are impossible for an ordinary Tuvaluan person to afford every day."

With such high prices, I can't believe that the daily consumption of all members of the SAR can be solved with just a little bit. ”

Li Tao said: "Brother Jian, the information you learned from the Internet is outdated.

With the completion of Sugon's desalination platform on Nuraquita Island, the price of fresh water has dropped dramatically across Tuvalu.

So far, due to the very high quality of the purified and mineralized water provided by Dawning Group, Tuvalu's original freshwater import channel has basically stopped.

Especially the mineralized water, I don't know how the Dawning Group did it, and some indicators are even higher than those high-quality natural mineral waters in New Zealand.

As a result, Tuvalu's fresh water supply, with the exception of those collected during the rainy season, is largely monopolized by the Dawning Group. ”

"Isn't there an antitrust law in Tuvalu?"

"Shuguang Group didn't take this point of freshwater sales profits into account at all.

Antitrust law? Not to mention that such a backward country with extreme shortage of materials would not be able to introduce such a law, and even if there was such a law, they would not be able to control the special zone.

Moreover, it was heard that the Dawning Group would provide Tuvalu with a certain share of the paid freshwater resources, but the request made by their Prime Minister Enel on behalf of Tuvalu was signed.

The Sugon group should have taken some policy privileges in exchange for this.

Otherwise, selling such high-quality freshwater resources at such a low price is simply not something that normal enterprises can do.

There are also those fresh vegetables and fruits, which are all produced by Shuguang Group's own industry, and I heard that they were brought by the way when transporting construction materials, so they will be sold at such a low price.

However, in the District of Tuvalu, you can't buy vegetables and fruits other than in the canteen. ”

"In other words, if I want to, I can't cook my own food."

"How is that possible.

Although the Tuvalu District promotes a group dining model, it does not restrict individuals from cooking their own food.

There is a dedicated area in the cafeteria for personal use, and vegetables and fruits can be purchased in the kitchen.

There is no charge for the ingredients in the canteen, but there is a charge for the time of use, which is $1 per hour. ”

"I still don't feel comfortable cooking in my own home, I can do whatever I want, and I'm not afraid to close the door no matter how late it is."

"The SAR is doing this for a reason.

Due to the special geographical environment here, it is impossible to build houses as you like on land.

Obtaining the most economical living conditions with the least land area is the first thing they have to consider.

Secondly, it is for the sake of economy and safety.

If natural gas pipelines are laid in every household, each household will also need to design a kitchen that is not likely to be used.

As you know, the supporting facilities in the kitchen are also a big investment.

If there is a range hood, it is necessary to design the flue.

The presence of a sink necessitated the design of sewer pipes, as well as a larger biogas digester for the treatment of food waste.

In addition, the laying of natural gas and water pipelines will also take up a lot of money, and the maintenance cost of the pipeline is also a huge expense.

Moreover, the more complex and dense the gas pipeline, the more likely it is to leak.

In the case of an already high density of occupants, the higher the probability of a natural gas leak and the greater the harm.

From the perspective of environmental protection, the disposal of kitchen waste generated by distributed kitchens is also a troublesome matter.

Each household produces a mixture of different types of waste, and the conditions and ways in which they are disposed of are different.

The efficiency of mixed processing is not high, and the difficulty and investment of classification processing are too great.

And there is not much place on this island for the natural degradation of this garbage.

It is even more impossible to dump this garbage directly into the sea, which is irresponsible for oneself and future generations.

Therefore, Shuguang Group finally adopted such a centralized dining method to solve all the previous problems.

With the minimum investment, greater comprehensive social benefits are obtained. ”

Li Jian said with emotion: "This Shuguang Group's approach is really different.

If you do this in the domestic community and gather everyone to eat in the canteen, how hard will the backstage of the canteen contractor be.

If they didn't design a kitchen, they would have dared to think that such a house could be sold. ”

"But they didn't even think about selling the house to private ownership.

Because Manager Long of Shuguang Group once said that this house is for living.

As long as they are members of the Tuvalu District, they have the right to rent any vacant house at a flat rent.

The City of Hope is about giving hope to everyone, not to the part of the homeowners who have homes.

As a result, all homes in the Tuvalu District will not be sold and will only be rented out as public rental housing. ”

"In this case, will someone rent all the vacant houses, so that those who really need them will not have a house to rent.

They then sublet out the houses at a high price to earn the difference. ”

"Since the SAR dares to come up with this policy, how can it not take such a situation into account?

Do you think it is redundant for the SAR to carry out multiple forms of identity authentication when registering personal identity information?

It is through these measures that they have achieved the ultimate accuracy of population information, and there will be no situation in China where one person has multiple identities at the same time.

Only in this case can the management of other social services based on demographic information be fair and impartial.

The housing policy in the District of Tuvalu is based on tiered rents.

If a person rents a house of less than 30 square metres, the rent is $0.1 per square metre per day.

In other words, if you rent a 30-square-meter house, the monthly rent of the house is 90 Australian dollars, which is equivalent to about 450 yuan for soft girls.

The total rental area of the same person is based on 30 square meters, and each additional 30 square meters is a tier, and the rental area within each tier will be twice as high as the rent of the previous tier.

That is to say, if you rent a 90-square-meter house alone, the rent of 30 square meters is about 450 yuan a month, the rent of the 30-60 square meter part is 900 yuan, the rent of 60 to 90 square meters is 1800 yuan, and the total rent of a month is 3150 yuan.

Of course, if you can find more than one member registered in that house, the rental area of each person is calculated based on the average area.

As a result of the sound population management basis, the computer system automatically calculates the amount of rent that a person should pay in the special district of Tuvalu, and in the case of an automatic deduction contract, deducts the balance in his personal account directly.

In this case, there is no room for speculation at all, and returning the house is the one used to live in it. ”
