Chapter 447: The Vanishing North City (Part II)

Multiply~~~!

The extremely harsh cutting sound was heard one after another on the huge Beicheng construction site. Geng Jiangyue stood on the roof of Building 45, with the scorching sun on his head and sunglasses, looking into the distance. Most of the entire northern city has been razed.

The exterior walls of the superbuildings, which could not even be penetrated by bullets and could only be destroyed by large-caliber armor-piercing shells of missiles and tanks, were cut into countless small pieces and piled high on the ground under the encroachment of cutting trucks.

These steels are excellent aerospace steels. After mankind gave up the moon landing program, these top-notch materials became armor shared by all mankind. However, it still can't stop death, and it can't escape the day when it will be demolished by human beings themselves.

Geng Jiangyue couldn't imagine how much it cost those people to make these super buildings stand on the land of Sea Lion City when Sea Lion City was first founded more than two hundred years ago.

And today, it seems that people have spent a lot of effort to make them disappear.

The three districts in the south of the sea lion city and the twelve districts in the north city, a total of 15 districts and 136 buildings, have been demolished to Building 46. In the lower 12th district, only the 18th floor of the two districts remains, plus a building 136 far away. For the first time in the history of Sea Lion City, not only does the population of the southern city exceed that of the northern city, but even the number of super buildings is now more than that of the southern city.

And it seems that it is obvious that it will continue to be dismantled.

I don't know where the people in Building 56, who were at the forefront of Beicheng before, have gone now.

Anyway, the building doesn't exist anymore.

Geng Jiangyue stood on the roof of the building for more than ten minutes, until his ears felt painful, and then he left.

In the next moment, he appeared in Building 28, the so-called "first floor of the North City".

Because it was far enough away from the construction site and the sound insulation of the building's shell was good enough, Geng Jiangyue immediately felt a lot quieter in his ears.

It was noon, and the public area of the building was quite lively.

But with the naked eye, there don't seem to be so many people.

Geng Jiangyue didn't know who to talk to, among the people he knew, all of them who could inquire about the news at will were not in Sea Lion City, as for the other people who were still in Sea Lion City, baskets, persimmons, Duanmu Xiang, and even hormones and hibiscus cakes, Geng Jiangyue couldn't confirm the position they represented now, so he wasn't very sure that he could hear the truth from them.

And he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to know what was going on in Sea Lion City-

It's not the "happening" in the eyes of those in the South City Hall, but the real thing that happens in the eyes of those who live in Sea Lion City and have no way out.

After thinking about it, Geng Jiangyue finally found that it seemed that the most real answer could only be found in Beicheng.

I just don't know if I can find the person I'm looking for.

Standing in the corridor of the public area of Building 28, Geng Jiangyue, dressed in a military uniform, once again became eye-catching.

Passers-by, looking at him strangely, whispered to each other, not knowing what they were talking about.

But there is something wrong with the expression.

Geng Jiangyue opened the watch, and the avatars of many people on the watch had been automatically deleted by the system, indicating that their original watches had been cancelled. Building 28 is indeed the junction of the south city and the north city. It seems that the place that is the easiest to change, but when it comes to real operation, it is the most resilient, and it is not their turn for half a day.

"Old Pan, where is it?" Geng Jiangyue sent the message.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, the other head replied with a voice that was very excited: "Hall Master, you are back! I am in the underground duty room!"

Geng Jiangyue brushed it and disappeared in place.

The next moment Pan Xuhua sent the message, Geng Jiangyue appeared in front of him. In the monitoring room under Building 28, Geng Jiangyue grinned at Pan Xuhua, who was wearing a security uniform, and said, "Long time no see." ”

Pan Xuhua was stunned for two seconds, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

Geng Jiangyue indifferently took out the beer and snacks, put them on the table, and said, "My daughter-in-law is pregnant, come back and see the family." There's something I don't understand, so I'm here to ask you. ”

As he spoke, he picked up two wine bottles and handed one to Pan Xuhua.

With two bangs, the cap opens automatically.

Pan Xuhua took the bottle, came back to his senses, and said with a little excitement and surprise: "You have children?"

"Hmm. Geng Jiangyue responded with a smile, sat down lightly, raised his head and poured a sip of wine, and let out a sigh, "The buildings in Beicheng are so good, why are they all demolished?"

Pan Xuhua's smile narrowed slightly.

He thought about it carefully, sat down beside Geng Jiangyue, and said slowly: "To put it simply, no one lives there......"

Geng Jiangyue frowned slightly: "No one lives?"

"Hmm. Pan Xuhua nodded, "A lot of people have moved away, and even thousands of people have moved away from our building." ”

Geng Jiangyue was silent.

Pan Xuhua talked about the cause and effect: "Around mid-February, the city hall suddenly issued a document, saying that it would abolish the citizen hierarchy system, which is a good thing, right? Medical care, pension, education or something, everyone will be the same in the future."

Many foreign TV stations have also come to report.

But a few days after the document came down, maybe five or six days later, the city hall said that since the citizen hierarchy system has been abolished, the 660,000 people living in Beicheng are all living by playing games. In order to unify management, the city hall decided to lower the threshold and allow people from the northern city to join the army. There are no requirements for academic qualifications and professional skills, and there is no age limit, and it is best to enlist in the army, and all people are soldiers. In addition, as long as you are willing to enlist in the army, Nancheng will be sent to your residence directly, and the treatment will be better than it is now.

You are also from Beicheng, you must know that we play games, work tirelessly for more than ten hours a day, and earn three or four hundred alliance coins a month, but if you enlist in the army, you work eight hours a day, and the lowest-ranking private, the current guaranteed salary is 800 yuan, and there is basically no money for food. There is such a good thing, this new policy comes all of a sudden, and the Beicheng side will be all of a sudden, wow......"

Geng Jiangyue said: "Did you go to a lot of people?"

"Hmm. Pan Xuhua nodded, took another sip of wine, and said, "Let's put it this way, three days before the policy came down, the 30 windows of the office of the City Hall Strategic Garrison Administration were all open, and the team lined up all the way from Beicheng to Nancheng. At least two or three hundred thousand people have signed up. ”

Geng Jiangyue asked, "Then why don't you go?"

"Of course I wanted to go at first. Pan Xuhua said with a smile, "But I'm not in a hurry at first, I encourage the whole people to sign up, it's the same if you report early and later." So I went to see the house in Nancheng first, it doesn't matter if you don't see it, after reading it, I feel that this thing is not reliable. I originally thought that the South City side was rumbling all day long, building a new super building, which was going to be prepared for us. After I went, I found out that I was building a wall and wanted to build a city within a city. The houses that were prepared for us were all mud houses, with no exterior walls. Last year, if we hadn't lived in a super building, and the outer wall of the building would have saved our lives, we would have been in the belly of a monster and turned into dung.

So many people, like me, feel like they can't live in that house when they see it. After a few days, those who signed up began to regret it, but they had already signed the agreement and couldn't leave. Otherwise, if you break the contract, it will not only be a deserter, the Sea Lion City National Affairs Committee has established a new constitution, and deserters will be expelled from nationality and deported, you say that we people, if we are deported - I'm okay, I'm good now, and I'm not afraid to go anywhere, but many people, they really don't have any ability except for games.

The level of education is not high, there is no professional skills, and there is a record of treason when they are deserters, to put it mildly, even if the people in Starfish City on the other side are all dead now, they want to be human batteries, and the Central and Southern Subcontinent Alliance will not accept them. So there is no way, those who signed up for the Sea Lion City Strategic Garrison Legion can only stay there. Those of us who are lucky enough to not be named will not go anymore. I guess there must be at least 150,000 or 60,000 people who went out in one go.

Then, a few days later, at the end of February, suddenly there was a war outside.

Sea Lion City organized a peacekeeping force, I heard that it was a mix of people from the south city and people from the north city, and on the first day of arriving in the place, seven or eight thousand people died, and as soon as we heard about it, basically no one dared to sign up for the army anymore. It's only 800 alliance coins a month, and it's not Dong Yuan, so why should Lao Tzu exchange his life for that money?"

Pan Xuhua said indignantly, and raised his head and grunted a few more times.

Geng Jiangyue said: "How many people are left in Beicheng now?" Do you know?"

"I don't know. Pan Xuhua shook his head and said, "I only know that there are more than 10,000 people in my building." Damn, it's too close to Nancheng, and when I signed up, I was the first to rush over. The first batch was directly given the rank of third-class soldier, and they were all very happy at first, but they didn't expect to go to the war first.

I haven't heard from them in the last month or so. It may be that the watch has been updated, and I can't get in touch here. But I think, and possibly, they all died outside. Now the rest of us in the building are basically all orphans, widows, old men and old women, and they are all young and strong when they go out. Damn, there are thousands of families, and if you don't do it, you'll be the last one......"

Pan Xuhua shook his head as he spoke, and Geng Jiangyue was also silent.

After being quiet for a few seconds, he asked, "Did all the people in the third district building go to serve as soldiers?"

"It's not. Pan Xuhua immediately understood what Geng Jiangyue meant, and explained, "This is a matter of last month, and the city hall suddenly said that in order to ensure the safety of Beicheng, it plans to build another northern city wall and enclose Beicheng."

But many people don't live far away, so they are encouraged to move, from other buildings, preferably all to the fourth and fifth districts, so that the walls can be built a little shorter, and it will take less time and a little faster. Isn't it June now, and it's going to be winter in a few months, so you can't hurry up and finish it before winter? Those who are willing to move from outside the Fifth District will be paid 3,000 Union Dollars per person, which is almost ten months' wages.

If you have money to move, you can live in the city wall, and there are no other requirements. A lot of people moved in again, and this just happened to move a lot away, just to live in the empty room again, and the people who came late couldn't even live in the house, so they could only live in the third district of the southern city. I heard that in the third district, Building 26 and Building 27, the corridors are full of people. The first district is not allowed to enter, and the accommodation is not as good as before......"

Geng Jiangyue said: "So as soon as the people outside moved in, the city hall immediately began to demolish the building?"

"But it's not!" Pan Xuhua said, "So everyone can see it, why did we join the army, moved, to put it mildly, they just wanted to deceive us all from Beicheng, so that they could demolish those buildings." Say anything about building a city wall for us, it's been a month, and there is no shadow of the start of construction, and every day I watch them demolish the building, demolish the building, and demolish the building, I guess, this city wall is not to think about it, don't forcibly transfer them to the south of the city one day. ”

Geng Jiangyue was a little surprised and asked, "Will it?"

"It's really hard to say......" Pan Xuhua shook his head, "Do you see how many people are in Nancheng now, how many people are left in Beicheng, how many buildings are left in Nancheng, how many buildings are left in Beicheng?

Besides, if the city government really wants to change its way and deceive us to the south city, there must be greedy people who are willing to be fooled. When one of the buildings in Beicheng is vacant, they will tear down one, and there will be fewer and fewer roads for us, and one day there will only be three or four buildings left in Beicheng, do you say we will move or not? But if we move in, we will be forced to enlist in the army, and when the time comes, we will go out and fight hard, do you think we have any other choice?"

Geng Jiangyue asked, "So what do you think ......?"

Pan Xuhua put the bottle on the table heavily: "Lao Tzu wants to live here until death! Lao Tzu's life is not as valuable as those who have studied in college in Nancheng and have high spiritual power, but Lao Tzu still wants to live a few more years!"

Geng Jiangyue looked at Lao Pan, who seemed to have drunk a little, thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "Then if I have a third way, the benefits are much better than that of Sea Lion City, and the living environment is definitely not bad, although it is also possible to work hard, but the possibility of living well to the end of life is definitely much greater than going to Nancheng, can you take such a road?"

Pan Xuhua couldn't help asking, "What way?"

Geng Jiangyue put it succinctly: "Immigration." ”

Pan Xuhua's face changed slightly: "There is such a good thing, where to move?"

Geng Jiangyue lightly spit out two words: "Donghua." ”
