Chapter 6: The Light Comes
The issuance of currency has been implemented very smoothly within Phoenix. The concept of money has been deeply ingrained in the marrow of modern humans, whether it is ordinary people or high-level evolutionaries, who want to have money at their disposal, and money has once again aroused the enthusiasm of Phoenix residents.
Living a better life is the driving force behind people's survival and development. The clothes produced by the garment factory, the furniture made by the furniture factory, and the various pre-apocalyptic daily necessities collected by the material recycling factory satisfied the hope that people could have these things in their homes again.
With the issuance of currency, Phoenix has also liberalized its own operation to a certain extent. As long as they file with the administrative department under Phoenix, residents can rent a shop in the business district to operate.
Barber shops and tailor shops, which are run by craftsmanship, have sprung up one after another. Song Yu even asked his subordinate department to run a public high-end restaurant, which could provide all kinds of delicacies before the end of the world, in addition to receiving guests from other forces, it was also open to residents in the city, but the frighteningly expensive prices of the dishes were clearly to earn back the money sent out.
But what really made all the men in the city desperately support the issuance of currency is thanks to a woman - Sister Lan, the old bustard of the original "Holy Water Family".
When this woman stood in front of Chi Hua, Chi Hua's jaw almost fell in shock, how did she survive the battle in Shengshui Town, and how did she get the qualification of a resident of Phoenix City?
Sister Lan and her sisters were able to survive thanks to the good work habits they had developed before the end of the world, and in order to prevent the police from arresting prostitutes, they had to design a secret door and a basement in the room. As for being able to obtain the resident qualification and really being introduced by Phoenix City as a special talent, Sister Lan was a serious master's degree in engineering from a well-known university before she went to sea, but two years after graduation, she changed her career to study the human body instead of mechanics.
Sister Lan's purpose in coming to Chi Hua was very simple, hoping to return to her old business in Phoenix, but her business application for "Phoenix Family" was ruthlessly rejected by Song Yu's subordinate administrative department, so she came to Chi Hua's back door.
Sister Lan made a vague promise to Chi Hua that once the "Phoenix Family" reopened, she would give him the status of a supreme VIP, provide free services for life, and even pay some interest on the spot. Frightened, Chi Hua hurriedly sent this terrible goblin away.
However, Chi Hua really took this matter as a serious topic and put it on the three-person committee for discussion. The reason why it was not discussed at the high-level plenary meeting was because there was no need to discuss it at that meeting, and it was impossible not to pass it with loyal old guests such as Duan Jiangpeng, Jin Yu, and Jiang Bai Chilie.
At the three-person committee, Song Yu was resolutely opposed to the opening of the "Phoenix Family" in Phoenix, but in the end, this issue was passed by a vote of two to one. Yi Fengleng cast a key vote of support.
After the meeting, Song Yu still reluctantly pulled Yi Fengleng and asked for an explanation, "I didn't expect you men to be virtuous!" ”
"Since the birth of money, no country has succeeded in preventing women from selling their bodies for money. Since we know that we can't eliminate it, it's better to standardize the management, and we can also use this to collect more taxes. Yi Fengleng refuted Song Yu speechless with just one sentence.
The men of the city were happy on the day of the official opening of the "Phoenix Family", and the neon signs flashing at night of the "Phoenix Family" also made the city's civilized atmosphere stronger and stronger.
Compared to the people and troops in the city, it is somewhat difficult for people outside Phoenix City to accept Phoenix Coins, and the biggest obstacle is people's trust in the value of Phoenix Coins.
But Song Yu only used some small means to make the Phoenix Coin circulate throughout the sphere of influence. First of all, the people outside the city who accepted farm employment, Phoenix used to give a pound of grain a day, and if they accepted to settle with phoenix coins, it would be three yuan of silver, and the three yuan silver coins could be sold to buy one and a half pounds of grain from the grain store specially opened next to it.
Under such a big temptation, everyone immediately chose to accept the Phoenix coin settlement. At first, everyone immediately exchanged the silver coins they got into food, but after a few days, people found that they could buy food at the grain store at any time during the day, and some other goods sold in the Phoenix store only accepted Phoenix coins, and people slowly began to accept and use Phoenix coins, and they were not in a hurry to cash out the Phoenix coins in their hands.
The circulation of Phoenix Coins between the affiliated camps is simpler, that is, to use coercive force to ensure the circulation of currency, and for all kinds of items handed in by the affiliated camps, Phoenix City only uses Phoenix Coins for settlement.
In less than half a month, the Phoenix coin has been fully circulated within a radius of thousands of square kilometers within the sphere of influence of Phoenix City, and once people have formed a habit of using it, they can no longer put it down.
With the trade of caravans, adventurers, and goods in Phoenix and its affiliated camps, Phoenix Coins gradually spread widely.
......
The Gates of Heaven were still nowhere to be found, but the Alliance of Light was the first to come to the door.
Because of the previous information in Qingyuan Valley, Chi Hua was not surprised by this at all, and even expected it to come. If the Bright Alliance wants to regroup, it will definitely find Doomsday Phoenix, the biggest force in the alliance now, again, and the messenger sent will definitely be Britney.
Britney was greeted by Yi Feng Leng. The peach blossoms under the Phoenix Mountain have bloomed, there is no warm kiss when the lovers reunite after a long absence, and there are no endless love words, the two under the peach blossom tree look at each other but no one speaks.
Since Guangming City Yi Fengleng said goodbye without saying goodbye, a layer of separation has been buried between the two.
"Yi, don't you have anything to say to me?" Britney looked at Yi Feng's cold gaze with sadness.
"Leave your organization, stay, and I will give you all my love and a home." Yi Fengleng suddenly stepped forward and hugged Britney's face.
Britney shook her head with difficulty, "Impossible, betraying the organization will be severely punished, not only me, but also you and the city will be implicated." ”
"Doomsday Phoenix City, is it the way it is, will the Illuminati be blamed for the past?"
Britney seemed to grasp hope, "Yes, we can only be together if you come with me and Phoenix rejoins the Light Alliance." Yi, please come with me, you don't understand the horror of the Illuminati, and the consequences of confrontation are destined to be shattered. ”
Yi Fengleng hugged Britney tightly in his arms and whispered in her ear: "Britney, I love you, but listen to me, there is an old Chinese saying that the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, your Illuminati will never be able to control China, and we will never join the Bright Alliance in Doomsday Phoenix!" ”
After Yi Fengleng finished speaking, he gently pushed Britney away and turned to leave.
"Yi, don't, don't leave me!" Britney shouted behind Yi Fengleng with tears in her eyes.
"Feng Leng, why are you so ruthless? My girlfriend is crying so sadly and I don't know how to coax it? An abrupt voice suddenly interjected between the two.
Yi Fengleng stopped, and Britney hurriedly wiped the tears from her face.
"I happened to be passing by, I didn't mean to eavesdrop!" Chi Hua jumped down from a peach tree.
"Where are you going, you need to pass through the trees?" Yi Feng replied coldly.
Britney looked at the man who suddenly appeared in surprise, she had seen this man many times, but she still didn't know who this man was.
Chi Hua smiled and stretched out his hand to Britney, "Meet me, Chi Hua." ”
Like a flash of lightning flashing through her head, she finally remembered the name, and was stunned for a moment, even ignoring Chi Hua's outstretched hand, and muttered, "I know you." ”
Chi Hua withdrew his outstretched hand a little embarrassed, "Miss Britney has heard of my name, it's a great honor." ”
Chi Hua smiled very brightly, that smiling face was so gentle, Britney couldn't connect the smiling man in front of her with the legendary cunning, ruthless and god-like man.
Chi Hua continued: "I apologize to you for Feng Leng, our Doomsday Phoenix City is willing to rejoin the Bright Alliance. ”
"Ahh Britney let out an exclamation, things reversed too quickly, Britney couldn't accept it, "Then why did Yi say that kind of thing just now?" ”
"He's just a piece of wood, I don't know how to coax you, maybe he wants to make you happy, we've discussed it before to join the Light Alliance, right, Feng Leng?"
Yi Fengleng and Chi Hua have a natural tacit understanding, although they don't know what Chi Hua wants to do, they nod cooperatively.
Britney glanced at Yi Feng coldly with disgust, the corners of her mouth curled up, and her heart was already happy.
"If we join the Light Alliance again, we have two requests, I wonder if Miss Britney will be able to agree?"
"You say, I can agree immediately if I can make the decision, and even if I can't decide now, I will ask the organization for instructions, and I believe there will be no problem." In order to be able to pull Yi Fengleng back to his side, even if it is ten or eight requests, Britney will agree for the organization.
"The first request is about me personally, I have some personal grudges with the Illuminati, Miss Britney should have heard of it, if Doomsday Phoenix joins the Bright Alliance, I hope these grievances can be written off."
"No problem, I'll agree to this for the organization, and both sides don't care about previous suspicions."
Britney probably knew the process of Chi Hua and the Illuminati's feud, and once defeated the forces that the Illuminati intended to support, because Tian Ziming's large crystal nucleus was wanted by the Illuminati Alliance. In Britney's opinion, these things were just trivial matters compared to absorbing Phoenix City into the Light Alliance, and there was no need to continue to pursue them, so she agreed on the spot.
"The second request is about Phoenix, Miss Britney has also seen the strength of Phoenix, I believe that there is no force in the alliance that is stronger than us now, so if Doomsday Phoenix joins the Bright Alliance, I will be the leader of the alliance." After Chi Hua finished speaking, he looked at Britney with a smile.
"I can't agree to this request right now, I need to ask the organization for instructions."
In Britney's opinion, it was not too much for Phoenix to make this request as the largest force in the alliance, but she didn't know what the other people thought. For the sake of Yi Fengleng, she was already thinking about how to persuade several other people to agree to Chi Hua to be the leader of the alliance.
"Then I'll wait for Miss Britney's good news." Chi Hua smiled mysteriously.
