Chapter 150: Silverlight City
"Passengers, welcome to Silverlight City!"
Three hours later, a chime was heard in the train, and another world had arrived.
Wang Xu looked out through the glass, the sky was flying with suspended cars, and the anti-gravity buses were running on the ground, and he couldn't even see a wheel.
Countless robots travel back and forth, dressed like security guards, and broadcast strings of electronic announcements.
Wang Xu took Jasmine out of the car, and soon a stranger greeted him and introduced himself: "Sir, I am a personal consultant Mi Xiu, do you need personal services, I am the best novice guide, I can help you quickly integrate into the upper world." ”
"How do you charge?" Wang Xu was a little interested, because he needed a guide, so that he would not be like a headless fly.
Mi Xiu saw that there was a business to do, and the smile on his face became more enthusiastic, and he replied: "3,000 yuan for 24-hour service, 15,000 yuan for a week's employment, and 50,000 yuan per month." Dear Sir, I recommend you to sign a long contract, the longer the price, the better the price. ”
"I'll hire you for a day first and see if you're getting the best value for your money." Wang Xu didn't mean to talk about a long appointment, but looked at the flow of people in the station and said, "I just came up from below, usually people like me, what should be the first thing to do?" ”
"Communicator, you need a new communicator watch that will help you understand the world. Also, if you don't have any relatives here, I think you need to find a place to live, Silverlight City has a clear rule that no one is allowed to sleep on the streets, and if it's serious, you will be banished to the lower world. Finally, if you have more money, I recommend that you give your financial plan a try. ”
Michaeu's speech was fast, but his words were clear and sounding fast and not garbled.
Wang Xu thought about it for a while, and chose to do the first thing first, to get a communication watch that Mi Xiu said.
The communication watch is the main communication tool in the upper world, similar to the function of modern mobile phones.
However, it is more practical than a mobile phone, and it has more functions, a completely virtual operation keyboard, plus holographic projection technology, and a smart butler function, just like carrying an old grandfather who knows everything about Pepsi.
"The Lucky Star 202 communication watch, the most high-end masterpiece on the market today, costs 86,000, you deserve it!"
"Two pieces..."
In front of it is shopping time, in order to make himself more like a person in the upper world, Wang Xu and Jasmine's whole body outfits have to be changed.
From clothes to leather shoes, from smart watches to smart hovercars, Wang Xu needs to do only one thing, spend money, spend money, spend money...
Money is not everything, but no money is everything.
From beginning to end, Wang Xu roughly calculated that he had spent at least five million.
The intelligent hovering car is the big head, and this bright silver flying car called the Backlight Messenger cost Wang Xu 4.5 million.
But it's worth it, the first time Wang Xu saw the backlight, he knew that this was what he wanted.
As for the money, Wang Xu doesn't care, it's a big deal to bring back some gems from modern times, and everything will be available as soon as it changes hands.
"Two passes for two million, two brand new identities for one million, hovering car for four and a half million, other consumption adds up to more than three hundred thousand, I sold eight million diamonds, and there are two hundred and thirty thousand left!"
After spending money like flowing water, Wang Xu had a little restraint and asked Mi Xiu: "Are there many rich people in the upper world?" ”
"For every 1,000 people, there is a billionaire, 10 multimillionaires, 100 millionaires. But your car is great, and under normal circumstances, billionaires will choose a hovercar at this price. Michaeu's answer was yes, but it was also cruel.
Sure enough, with the support of the lower world, the finance of the upper world is developing explosively.
Wang Xu has a huge sum of money, and if he is placed in the lower world, he can make a factory worker earn it for 20,000 years without eating or drinking.
And here you only use one in a hundred, which is equivalent to dragging one out of the street at random, and he may be richer than him, and the upper world is really the world of money.
"Well, I'm a poor man, so far!" Wang Xu shrugged his shoulders in hindsight, and then asked rhetorically, "How do you make money here?" ”
"Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, and shrimp eat silt."
Mi Xiu leaned on the co-pilot, his fingers tapped on the window, and encouraged, "Do you want me to take you to the trading market, it will surprise you." ”
"Marketplace?" Wang Xu muttered this word and nodded imperceptibly.
... Twenty minutes later...
The trading market that Mi Xiu said is a 100-story skyscraper, and it is crowded with people.
Wang Xu walked with Jasmine in it, and the eye was that there was a rotunda on each floor, and a square virtual image was projected in the middle.
Wang Xu walked up to take a look and found that there was a series of information and quotations on it, corresponding to factories and stores.
"This is the trading center, which is divided into three stages, the upper world industry transaction, the lower world industry transaction, and the special industry sales center. If you tap your finger here, you can have a factory with more than a million workers in the lower world, and you can sit back and wait for the money to be collected. Of course, if your investment fails, bankruptcy is a breeze. ”
Mi Xiu took Wang Xu and the others up and came to the sale announcement on the 88th floor.
This bulletin board is no different from the bulletin board below, the only difference is that this is a mineral investment, and one of the positions for sale has the words "Manager Mi Xiu" written on it.
"This Michau can't be you, right?" Wang Xu looked at this iron ore for sale, and looked at Mi Xiu with some surprise, but he didn't expect that he was still a mine owner.
Mi Xiu smiled bitterly when he heard this, looked at Wang Xu with your very foreigner eyes, and explained: "Ninety-nine percent of the people in the upper world have industries in the lower world, and the difference is only the size. For example, my iron ore mine has an annual output value of about 80,000 yuan, and there are more than 600 people absent from work.
There are some children from wealthy families, there are factories with 100,000 people when they go to school, they are like playing a development game, after school to give various instructions to the factories below, a single order can affect the lower world, hundreds of thousands of remember the family, those rich people use this method to train their children, can you imagine what kind of scene it is? ”
Wang Xu lowered his head and thought about it, and after a long time, he spit out two words: "Terrible!" ”
A group of elementary school students, using the way of playing cultivation games, using the industries of the lower world to exercise their abilities, is not terrible.
Perhaps for them, the people of the lower world are not people, just a group of NPCs with self-thoughts.
Every day, the data in the lower plant is presented in the form of a table on a virtual screen, which is then fine-tuned by these operators.
As you can imagine, reality is not a game, and there will be no chance of a save return.
As long as one link is wrong, or a seriously wrong order is given, the factory of more than 100,000 people will fall apart, causing a wave of layoffs of hundreds of thousands of people.
Some of these operators who gave orders can actually understand the feelings of those workers in the lower world, for whom the factory will close down and start a new one, and for the laid-off workers this is the end of the world.
