Chapter 134: Infinite Medical Ethics Mayor Xu!
As the first mayor of Gotham City, Xu Mu naturally also wanted to welcome the residents who came from afar.
So he also edited a message on the social media platforms within the copy.
"Welcome everyone to Gotham and follow me as we embark on a beautiful new era. Come to me here to bring your own building materials to build a house, everyone will be the city center in the future, it is the Eight Banners, it is the top layer of the contempt chain, highlighting an authentic, very upper-class! ”
High society days! Who wouldn't want to live!
As soon as the news was sent, it immediately attracted a small hundred NPCs to drag their families and flock in.
This move directly stunned a group of players watching the game.
"Crooked day, what's okay with this?"
"Compared with God A, the leaders of our company are also happy, and it is really good to see God A!"
"I thought that I had to be the mayor and keep my distance from the citizens, but I didn't expect the mayor who is close to the people to be so loud? Learned again! ”
"Brothers, that is to say, a person of indecent virtue like me does not deserve to live in a very upper-class community, and I would like to ask where is the very low-class area? / Shy/shy"
"I'm me, I'm too! I'm a different person from others, I've been thrifty all my life, I can't live in an upscale house, I only live in a very low-class area! /Bad laugh/Bad laugh"
Xu Mu ignored the ridicule of the light screen message and continued to focus on transforming Gotham City.
After solving the problem of the first batch of people settling in, the enthusiastic mayor Xu Mu will start to solve the second major pain point of people's livelihood.
Electricity.
The demand for electricity in Skylines has always been a big problem, and according to Xu Mu's observations, both in the past life and in the current dungeon era.
Players are complaining about the constant shortage of power resources.
As the population base increases, the demand for electricity increases, especially in commercial and industrial areas.
If there is no electricity, some areas will stagnate, factories will be closed, and residents will have no money to pay taxes, no energy to upgrade buildings, and their happiness will be reduced.
Therefore, electricity is a top priority for urban development.
And the supporting equipment for power resources in the copy is very expensive.
A wind power plant costs 5,000 gold and can only provide electricity for about 100 households.
Counting the areas of commerce and industry, which are two large electricity consumers, it is conservatively estimated that at least six power stations must be erected in the early stage.
This expenditure instantly pulled out 30,000 gold.
And the electricity also needs to be transmitted by power towers.
Each tower also costs 500 gold.
In this way, the first big problem of people's livelihood contradiction in the early days of "Skyline" appeared.
Players are also starting to have their voices heard.
"If the power station is built on a hillside far away from the city, then a large number of power towers will need to be laid all the way into the city, and the initial start-up capital of 70,000 gold will not be enough."
"But if the power station is built directly in the urban area, the power tower can save money, but because of noise and congestion, the happiness index of residents in a nearby area will be reduced, which will affect work and indirectly affect urban development."
"I should have been stuck in this wave directly, and I gave up this copy directly!"
"Me too, sit back and wait for the A god boss to give me a trick!"
"I want to see how the A-god boss is doing!"
In this regard, Xu Mu smiled slightly in his heart.
He did not answer, but led by example.
He built six wind turbines in turn on remote suburban hillsides.
Then, two power towers were discharged.
It costs a total of 3.1w gold.
Two power towers, one directly at the foot of the power station and the other less than 500 meters apart.
"Okay, that's enough."
This operation is really confusing to the players.
“???”
"What's this, the two transmission towers are far away from the city, how can they send electricity?"
"A, God boss, did you miscalculate...... Don't recount ...... Belch? ”
Before the players' doubts could be heard, one or two eyes suddenly widened.
I saw Xu Mu passing through the operation of the copy panel.
The option to Modify Building Coordinates is selected.
Then, he dragged a transmission tower and began to drag it desperately towards the city.
The wires between the two transmission towers also began to grow infinitely long, like a slender ramen noodle.
"Bang!"
With the placement of a transmission tower in the city, the entire city is directly electrified!
Xu Mu was afraid that the player would not be able to absorb the details, and explained: "The transmission tower costs money to buy, but there is no option to buy wires in this dungeon, which means that the cable is an additional gift for the purchase of the transmission tower." ”
"By modifying the coordinates of the building and having this copy send us a very long wire, we can realize the power transmission of two transmission towers to support a city."
"I call this plan, the first-tier city plan."
The explanation fell, and the players in the entire light curtain were dumbfounded.
"Shente first-tier city plan ......"
"A city held up by a wire, right? You kid...... Oh no, you gods! ”
"When we were still worrying about upgrading the small village, Gotham City became a first-tier city a hundred years ahead of us/funny/funny"
"Wozhi! The function of modifying the coordinates of the building was originally intended to make it convenient for the mayor to move some important buildings, but how did it become a means of getting stuck in the hands of God A? ”
"That's a terrible idea! Can be absorbed! ”
Although Xu Mu's behavior is a bit despicable, you just say that you don't save money!
A micro-operation directly solved the biggest pain point of countless players in the early stage, and instantly attracted many players to recognize this wave of plans, and the hint of faith value acquisition also beat wildly in front of Xu Mu's eyes!
[D+ level players contributed +26.46 Faith to you!] 】
[C-level players contribute +44.1 Faith to you!] 】
[C-level players contribute faith +61.74!] 】
Swipe the light screen at a glance.
S-level dungeons are different, even the beliefs offered by the lowest players start in the double digits.
Just one small operation allowed Xu Mu to directly harvest tens of thousands of faith points!
Eyes move back to the dungeon screen.
After getting the electricity, Xu Mu began to rectify the waterway.
The pipe placement in the copy of "Skylines" is still relatively convenient and cost-effective.
A pump was placed upstream of the river, a drain was placed downstream, and a loop of pipes was laid into the town.
It only cost a thousand dollars to make a trip.
With all that in mind, a city is officially up and running.
Xu Mu turned on a hundredfold speed, and the passage of a day in Gotham City passed quickly through several nights in the sunrise and sunset, neon sky, and silver stars flashing.
Residents drive to work at the factory in the morning, then walk through the commercial area to buy something after work, and then drive back to the residential area to sleep, and everything looks orderly.
The happiness index continues to be at the full value of emerald green, and some residents have begun to take the initiative to transform small bungalows into two-story small western-style buildings, and even started a plan to create people at home.
Gotham City is thriving!
It's just a little bit bad.
The city's treasury is running out of revenue.
Xu Mu opened the current financial expenditure and took a look.
The initial capital of 70,000 gold was spent nearly 50,000 yuan through the construction of roads, power stations, and water conservancy pipelines.
There are still 20 thousand left.
In terms of maintenance, the cost of electricity and water + road maintenance is about 1,000 gold/day, and this fund flow can only last for 20 days.
And the city's revenue.
After all, it is still tax-free, and it is not yet eligible to unlock the park and public transportation system.
The initial difficulties of the second major dungeon came earlier than expected.
It also caused many players to think deeply.
"The first government deficit financial crisis, I appeared when I was building a level 3 small town, and I didn't expect the A god boss to appear so early."
"There is no way, the tax exemption burns money too quickly, and if the tax is raised to about 10%, it may be able to delay the development for a while."
"Let's see how the A-god boss solves the siege this time."
In the curious speculation of everyone.
Xu Mu's Gotham City has finally ushered in the first upgrade point.
The city has a population of over 500 people, and has been upgraded from a level 0 desolate place to a level 1 small village.
And unlocked the hospital and the garbage dump two major facilities for the benefit of the people.
Unlocked the education system and has the qualifications to build an elementary school.
and, an additional 20,000 gold coins were awarded.
The arrival of 20,000 seems to have eased a lot, but it is actually a drop in the bucket.
There's a mechanic in Skylines that says once you unlock something, the inhabitants start to need something.
When there is a level 0 wasteland, there is no garbage dump and no hospital, and the citizens will not have a headache and brain fever, and there is no garbage to throw away.
Once level 1 is available, you can't give it to them.
This group of Diao people, if they don't give it, they will start to make trouble, and their happiness will begin to scream.
The construction of the hospital costs 10,000 gold, and there are two options: private and public.
If you choose to be private, then in addition to the construction, the expenses of the follow-up hospital will be completely borne by the wealthy merchant NPC, and the maintenance will not need to be paid by the mayor.
This is equivalent to spending 10,000 yuan in vain in order to maintain the stability of the city, and it cannot be recovered.
If it is public, then the medical revenue goes to the government, and the mayor can set up a medical fee system.
However, it will require an additional 2,000 gold/day medical maintenance fee.
After all, some medical equipment is very expensive.
And that's not all.
The construction of garbage dumps is even more of a headache.
Once built, there is an additional maintenance fee.
Moreover, the stinking garbage station cannot be built in a residential area, so it has to be built a separate section of the road and a closed-loop intersection.
In this way, it seems that there is an extra 20,000 yuan in the pocket, but in fact, the subsequent daily financial expenditure will exceed 3K.
According to Xu Mu's experience in his previous life, many master players of "Skyline" will not even pull the population too quickly in the early stage, but wait for the foundation to slowly develop, and then little by little, dozens of people will be put in.
The advantage of this lies in the accumulation of thick and thin, and the same as building a building, the stability of the ground infrastructure, and the rise of high-rise buildings is not a problem.
However, Xu Mu doesn't have too many choices, and the timeline of the teaching dungeon can't be stretched too long, otherwise it will seriously delay the time for players to get off the dungeon by themselves, and they will not only not contribute faith points.
In turn, you will feel that your business ability is not good, which will affect your reputation.
Of course, Xu Mu was known as the No. 1 wild player of "Skyline" in his previous life, and he still has a lot of experience with the first deficit crisis in the current small village.
He decisively chose to set up a public hospital in the heart of the city and named it St. Elizabeth
As soon as the hospital sat down, a green satisfied smile appeared on the heads of the surrounding residents, and the happiness index rose again!
#我们的市长真是太棒了! Obviously, the city is still in the development plan, and it is so touching that a hospital has been set up for us so early! #
#哥谭市的空气如此香甜, oh, I love this land so much! #
#医院的收费标准非常便宜, the medical equipment is all up to date, I am very satisfied! #
After Xu Mu and the others touted a round of praise to the outside world, they finally picked up the firewood knife.
Began to reform hospital revenue in a big way.
First of all, the cost of medical care remains the same, and if citizens go to the hospital for treatment in person, it will still be the fair price.
But!
If there is a patient who is seriously ill and bedridden at home, he has difficulty moving.
Our St. Elizabeth is equipped with a top-of-the-line luxury special ambulance, 3000 ...... Oh no, this time it's not a knife thing, 3000 gold!
As long as 3000 gold, as long as the funds are in place, our St. Elizabeth will go out at the speed of light!
What?
You say you can't afford it?
That's fine, if you can't afford it, you can get up and go to the hospital by yourself.
It's just cancer, don't be so nervous.
As soon as the policy came out, all the players watching the game were stunned!
"! 3000 gold once an ambulance? It's only 10,000 gold for you to build a hospital, so pull three people back to the original cost, right......?"
"Citizen: Why don't you just carry me to the crematorium."
"Immeasurable Medical Ethics"
"A God understands human blood steamed buns."
"Why do I feel like we're on a pirate ship...... A god boss cuts it black! ”
"I'm afraid, the A god boss has taught this cute girl badly, ...... it"
"Let's just say that the economy is not up!"
What really stunned many players was.
This trick really works!
After all, Diao Min is dying, and if he doesn't have an ambulance, he can really send him directly to the crematorium.
A mere 3,000 gold is just thirty years of savings, gritting your teeth and digging it out!
This move had an immediate effect, and the government's fiscal deficit began to be greatly reduced.
In a city with a population of 500 people, even if there is only one seriously ill or accidentally injured patient every day, the fare of 3,000 per time directly offset the government's expenses throughout the day.
Players were amazed to discover.
Fiscal revenues and expenditures, it balanced!
Although there are a few people who have complained dissatisfied.
But Diao Min, who didn't need to be treated, didn't care about these sounds, and the knife only hurt when it fell on his neck.
As a result, Xu Mu only used a very small individual happiness index to perfectly reverse the first wave of deficit crisis.
It didn't make the government any money, but at least it didn't have to spend any more.
The players hissed at this action.
"Day! The extent of this black heart really showed me that I knelt down......"
"We're playing the city skyline, and God A is playing Diao Mintianji, right?"
"At that time, I was worried about the hospital's fee standard of 200 gold, and the happiness index of residents began to decline, so I didn't dare to think more about the details of this piece, and quickly pulled it back to the normal level. Didn't expect to be able to play like this? ”
"You're stupid! A god boss is only taking a few people to open the knife, and the dead will not speak. You will directly increase the medical consumption of the whole city, and you must have complained a lot. ”
"Yo Si! I learned another wave of money-making tricks! I turned around and directly pulled the upper limit of the ambulance fee of 10,000 gold/time! ”
"My suggestion is, just open the crematorium!"
Xu Mu glanced at the light screen and showed a satisfied smile.
Greatly, these players are finally getting to grips with the essence of this dungeon!
Yo West! Progress so far: 24/50!
There are still ten days left, continue to rush !!
