Chapter 321: Occupancy
Huang Ying finally chose the pass skateboard, after pressing the confirmation button, Huang Ying immediately felt something under his feet lift up, looked down, I don't know when a pass skateboard appeared under his feet, I don't need to think much to know, it must have appeared from under the ground.
For such a level of science and technology, Huang Ying has nothing to study except for curiosity, after all, she is not a scientist.
It's just that Huang Ying was a little curious, and stepped hard with her foot, feeling that there was no trace of shaking, which was a little relieved, otherwise she was really worried about her safety when she stood on it.
Along the way, Huang Ying saw a lot of things he didn't understand, and slowly became strange.
Thinking about his parents and thinking about his future life here, I couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and before I knew it, I came to my parents' door and knocked on the door.
Soon a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy poked his little head out from behind the door, saw Huang Ying standing outside the door, and called out sweetly, "Sister!" He took Huang Ying's hand and said, "Sister, it's fun here!" β
Huang Ying stroked the little boy's head dotingly, he is Huang Ying's younger brother, because the difference is almost ten years old, so Huang Ying likes his younger brother very much.
"A-Ying is back! Come on in! β
Huang Ying took her brother's little hand and walked into the room, and saw five or six people sitting in the living room where the room was not too big, including Xie Haotian's parents.
"Ah Ying, sit down, hey, why didn't Haotian come back with you!"
"He and Lu Tianyu went to Xucheng ......", Huang Ying told what happened after breaking up with his parents, focusing on those materials in exchange for points.
Xie Haotian's father sighed and said: "This matter is that I didn't think about it, Haotian mentioned to me before the matter of hoarding materials, but when I thought about it, those things can't be eaten and can't be taken away, no matter how much hoarding is useless, I wanted to hoard more food, but after the Shanghai market began to regulate, it was impossible to hoard food, and when I came here, I found that the food here was not as tight as I imagined, but all kinds of materials and materials were more valuable!" β
Speaking of which, Xie Haotian's father is not wrong to think, the most valuable thing in the last days should be food, who would have thought that what is needed here is not food, but various material resources.
The only fortunate thing is that Xie Haotian's father is engaged in real estate construction, and he usually hoards some materials in his hands, which is in exchange for nearly 2,000 points. Although he lost a lot of opportunities to earn points, he had 2,000 points in his hand, and he would be a considerable fortune here, so Xie Haotian's father wanted to discuss with others how to use these points.
"A-Ying, you came back just in time, we were discussing how to use the points in our hands just now, what do you suggest?"
Huang Ying just came here, and he didn't even know how to use the points, so what good advice was there.
"So what did you just discuss?"
Huang Ying's mother was a little embarrassed: "If you want to earn points here, one is to work here, and the other is to go out to collect all kinds of materials and materials, we used to run a real estate business, and there is no place for us here, but we are not as good as ordinary people, we are worried about this matter?" β
Huang Ying quickly checked it on her personal terminal, she had never worried about this kind of thing before, living a princess-like life, and when she needed to participate in decision-making one day, she found that she seemed to be useless!
It is true that there are many jobs provided on the personal information terminal, but none of those things seem to be suitable for their relatives, there is no real estate business here, everyone lives in a rented house, and the price ranges from one point to hundreds of points per month, and it is impossible to buy it, because it is not sold at all!
Of course, in addition to working for a shelter here, you can also start your own business, but starting a business also requires finding investment projects.
The Xie Huang family has long been an elite class, and if they want to start from a small business, there are still some concepts that need to be changed for a while. But more importantly, Xie Huang and Huang discussed for a long time, but they did not find a suitable investment direction, and the two had different opinions on how to operate.
Xie Haotian's father believes that the number of people in the shelter is not large at present, but the number will soon grow explosively, and the catering industry has a great future.
Huang Ying's mother believes that there is no shortage of food here, but a lack of entertainment, and in the post-apocalyptic environment, everyone is under great pressure and needs a place to release, and there is a lot to be done in the entertainment industry in the shelter.
Huang Ying felt that what the two of them said made sense, and it could be seen from the personal information terminal that in the entire underground shelter, three commercial areas were demarcated, and there were already some private catering shops in these three commercial areas, indicating that it was still able to operate restaurants here.
As for the entertainment industry, Huang Ying did not find it on the map of the business district, and I don't know if there is a market for the entertainment industry here.
However, Huang Ying soon discovered a serious problem, whether it was Xie Haotian's father's restaurant or his mother's casino, they all faced an embarrassing situation, that is, there was no manpower, and even the casino did not have audio equipment .......
Huang Ying said what she thought, and the atmosphere became awkward for a while, these things are not a problem at all outside, but when you get to the shelter, it becomes the biggest problem.
"Isn't it possible for the Vault to go out and gather resources? If there is no shelter, why can't we go outside and look for it! Huang Ying, a cousin with a bit of a scholarly temperament, said.
"Don't you know what's going on out there?" Xie Haotian's father scolded.
For this bad idea, everyone has not thought about it, the question is who can go out to find it, now is the end of the world, it is difficult to say whether you can come back after going out, the risk is too great, and those who go out, will they work hard for this little thing?
Huang Ying's eyes lit up, because she saw that on the page of collecting materials, in addition to the price list of various exchange materials, there were also instructions and tips for establishing a collection team, and someone really set up a collection team, which was similar to the nature of the bounty hunter in the movie.
If you form a collection team with Haotian yourself, the manpower and equipment that the elders need will be easily solved, and you can even earn more points.
Huang Ying quickly clicked on the instructions and tips for forming a collection team, how to establish the conditions for a collection team and some tips, the conditions for establishing a collection team are very simple, so simple that people wonder if they are joking, because the so-called conditions are no conditions, if you insist on saying that there are any conditions, that is, you must understand the consequences after going out, and be mentally prepared for death.
As for the tips for collecting the team, there are a bit of a surprising number of them, there are more than 30 pages, and Huang Ying read it for more than 20 minutes before reading them.
After reading it, Huang Ying was not quite sure whether she should set up a collection team or not, because she thought about the collection team going out too simply.
The first tip of the outgoing collection team requires the outgoing personnel to have experience in surviving in the wild, does Huang Ying have it? She is not a fool, she immediately understood the importance of prompts, such as what to quickly identify the direction, skillfully find available food, master a fighting skill, etc., almost every hint Huang Ying does not understand very well, and now she wants to go out, basically just to send her to death.
Huang Ying thought about the collection team too simply!
Hit! felt like he was hit the head by the heavyweight boxing champion, and Huang Ying was a little dizzy.
Huang Ying is a naΓ―ve little princess in the garden, who has heard many moving stories outside, and longs for the day when she can fly to the outside world and get rid of the shackles of the family, but when she really faces the sudden changes in the world, she finds that this world is completely different from what she imagined.
After discussing to no avail, the Xie Huang family decided to take a look first, and there was indeed no need to be in such a hurry.
Huang Ying came to his room, the room rented by the Huang family is not too big, it is said to be three bedrooms and one living room, with a kitchen and a bathroom, but the area is only sixty or seventy square meters, which is more crowded than the nearly 1,000 square villas that he lived in before.
But such a house is already in the middle and upper class in the shelter, and she thought of the house that Lan Lan told her before, where several people are crowded into a dormitory, and each person has to pay a point of rent every month.
This is also something that can't be helped, just such a house, it needs ten points per month, and if you add the expenditure of water and electricity, I am afraid it will reach fifteen points.
Fifteen points is indeed nothing for the 2,000 points in the hands of the two Xie Huang families, but there are more than a dozen Xie Huang two families, so that the monthly housing expenses alone have reached nearly 200 points, plus so many people eat, drink and Lazar, this point in the hand will not take a year to sit on the mountain, which is also the reason why the Xie Huang family is in a hurry to do business.
Huang Ying flipped through the information of the residential area on the personal information terminal, which was public and could be accessed by anyone.
The residential area is divided into three floors, each floor is divided into more than a dozen small floors, a small floor is a residential area, each small residential area has dozens to hundreds of rooms, the house where Lan Lan lives belongs to the collective dormitory, the number is also the largest, and the price is the cheapest.
A house where a family like Huang Ying lives is much better, and it can live in one or several families together, which is not too expensive.
Of course, there are also luxury residential areas, where the houses are very large, and it is said that you can see the scenery outside, but the prices are a bit outrageous, and the monthly rent alone costs hundreds of points, and I don't know what kind of people can live there.
Originally, Xie Haotian's father meant that Xie Huang's family rented two such luxury houses, and it was not too expensive to squeeze them.
However, some of Xie Huang's family members are not willing to huddle together, and they all hope to have their own independent and private space, and there is no need for everyone to live together.
Some family members even proposed to divide the 2,000 points in their hands equally, but they were resolutely opposed by Haotian's parents and Huang Ying's parents, which is equivalent to not even having the capital to make a comeback.
There is no way to do such a situation, both sudden and expected.
The end times have changed many things, including the relationship between people, even the closest relatives, in order to survive, family affection is obviously not as important as life.
Huang Ying found that if the residential area was full of people, it could accommodate about 100,000 people, which was a bit big different from the million people Lu Tianyu said.
Even the 100,000-person shelter is very large, and the shelter built by the human government is basically about 50,000 people. The main factor in this setting of the number of people is the future development of the shelters, and as for the shelters with more than 100,000 people, the human government is not without them, and I have even heard that there are also shelters with a million people, but the number is much smaller.
Huang Ying looked at the time, it was exactly 10 o'clock in the morning, and there was still a little time before noon, so she was ready to go out to the business district for a walk.
When he went out, Huang Ying happened to see his cousin Xie Jin, who was an outlier in the Xie family, because he didn't like business at all, and he also studied mechanical and electronic engineering, and he was also the first person in Xie and Huang's family to apply to work in the shelter.
Xie Jin hopes that Xie Haotian's father can lend him 100 points, and he will use 100 points to accept the knowledge indoctrination of the refuge, and after receiving the knowledge indoctrination, he will also pass the relevant tests and assessments, and if he successfully passes, he can go to work, and he can earn a minimum salary of more than 30 points per month.
This point can already allow his family to live a comfortable life, and if he develops well in the later stage and successfully enters the Vault's research institute, the salary can go up to a new level, which is what he heard from a researcher.
For Xie Jin's future planning, there are also a few very agreeable, one is to instill knowledge in the shelter, the difficulty of learning knowledge is greatly reduced, and while quickly accepting new knowledge, they can also adapt to life here as quickly as possible, these people do not have the idea of doing business between the Huang family, and living a peaceful life is the goal they pursue, not everyone wants to become the owner of wealth.
"Have you really thought about it?"
"I have already gone to see the future job, the conditions there are very good, and the technology there is very advanced, it is a technology that human beings simply cannot have, and now I firmly believe that if human beings can hold on to the final victory, this is undoubtedly the most likely place", Xie Jin's eyes were full of determination and fanaticism, as if he saw the day of victory in the future.
Seeing Xie Jin's expression, Huang Ying sighed in his heart, the split of the family is inevitable, maybe their choice is also a good way out, after all, doing business here is also extremely risky, once the investment fails, more than 100 people in the entire Xie Huang family will face an existential crisis.
Put the eggs in the same basket, it is better to let the two families go out independently, maybe this is the best choice.
