SimCity from Wasteland

Chapter 105 University Construction
"If that's the case, then it's all right."

They have stayed in the grain production base for a long time. The grain production base is too big and has too many areas.

Endless shopping.

Next to large supermarkets, commercial streets are being built, including bustling residential areas.

Police stations, hospitals, and fire stations ensure the safety of people's lives.

The bank guarantees the currency issuance.

Television stations can announce some of today's policies, as well as important news.

All agencies are coordinated.

After walking around the entire City of Hope, it was already evening, the sky was getting dark, and the street lights on the streets turned on at seven o'clock.

But they also found that the City of Hope at night is different from the daytime.

The entire City of Hope is brightly lit, but there are very few people on the streets.

An elder was surprised: "It's strange, why are there so few people at this point?"

Xia Yuan smiled and said, "Because it's seven o'clock."

"Seven o'clock? You mean it's dark and the streets are not safe?" the elder was surprised.

But it is also understandable that no matter how perfect a city is, it has flaws.

The other elders were even more puzzled. After this day's wandering, the safety of the City of Hope was better than they imagined.

During the conversation, a patrolling police car passed by ahead.

It doesn't look like it's unsafe.

Xia Yuan smiled: "Seven o'clock is meal time, and an important program in the city has started."

"Program? Is it a performance?"

"It's not a performance, it's news. Since the development of City of Hope, many important decisions have been disseminated through news. The news is transmitted to all citizens of City of Hope through televisions in every household."

Xia Bo paused, and continued: "Every household in the City of Hope has a TV. At the beginning of the establishment of the City of Hope, these TVs were not allowed to be watched. Many decisions can only be made through meetings, and then by newspapers. The form was sent to every household, but there are still many people who have not received it, and even many people are illiterate, and a full meeting needs to be held.”

"Later, TV stations came into being and could be broadcast through the TVs in every household. From 07 o'clock to 30:[-], it is the start of the central news. This time period also happens to be the time when people eat and finish work. Time After one incident, people developed the habit of eating at this time and watching the central news."

All the elders were suddenly shocked.

I didn't expect Mayor Xia to think so carefully. If this really gradually develops into a habit, any major changes or decisions in the city will be communicated to every household through TV.

This is more convenient than any other way!
Xia Yuan smiled, they may not know that the Internet in the future will be faster and more convenient than TV!

It's just that the City of Hope now needs to develop step by step, so we can't act too hastily.

He is now preparing for a series of ideas such as the invention of the computer, the invention of the Internet, the development of automobiles, the development of computers, the development of mobile phones, the development of telephones, and so on.

The rudimentary factory is already able to produce some basic electronic equipment, and the idea can actually be carried out.

It's just that urban development is the main focus at this stage, and even if a lot of manpower and material resources are invested in developing such a thing, there are too few people in the city, and it may not be effective.

So this step requires a very lengthy layout.

At least two or three years, as many as four or five years.

The talent rescue plan is also going on. After the infiltration plan is effective, Xia Bo starts to let these people search secretly. Only after the talent rescue can these plans be carried out.

"Elders, the housekeeper has prepared a rich dinner for everyone. Why don't you wait and see the night view of the city after the dinner?"

Xia Yuan had a smile on his face. From the faces of these elders, it could be seen that they had been attracted by City of Hope.

If he could convince people with virtue, Xia Yuan would never use force. The population of the City of Hope is too small, and the population of the Wasteland after the disaster is even smaller.

If wars are launched every day, even if there is no need for disasters to come again, even human beings can destroy themselves.

War is the main theme of the wasteland.

This seems to have returned to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties when the heroes were divided.

The country is fragmented, the gathering places of various regions, and the population cities have experienced more than half a century of disasters and population replacement, and the concept of the country has long since disappeared.

Food cannot be grown in waste soil, even if it can be grown in some places, the food output is very little.

Resources are scarce, so it is natural to plunder through war.

And Xia Yuan's concept is, for weak forces, try to convince others with virtue.

Virtue is not good, you are talking about martial arts.

He has lived in the wasteland for a week, and he has a few books on the darkness of society. He can be cruel, but for his own people, there is no need to be like this.

The dinner was held in the mayor's residence.

The chef cooked a table full of Chinese and Chinese, but there were not so many dishes. There were more than 30 dishes for a large round table.

There are one hundred and eight dishes in the Manchu banquet, which is incomparable.

"Thank you Mayor Xia for your hospitality. We already have the answer in our hearts."

At the dinner, the great elder of the left wing said that after a brief exchange on the way back, they had already made a decision.

The great elder of the right wing also followed up and said: "We also have it in our hearts. We have seen everything in the City of Hope today. In contrast, we are indeed not suitable for managing the city. It is better to study academics and make some contributions to human development. .”

This sentence is very clear, with this sentence, Xia Yuan has a bottom line in his heart.

With a smile on his face, he said: "Wars are not feasible. Those who suffer are ordinary people, and they are innocent. I have lived in the gathering place, and I know the darkness of the refugee area very well. If we want to truly build a prosperous and strong city, It is very difficult, and I still need everyone to help me in the future, I am still not strong enough alone."

"Mayor Xia, don't underestimate yourself. You are more talented than our group of old bones. Compared with you, we are a bit dwarfed." The rightist elder said with a sigh.

"Although we are not good at governance, we can still provide assistance in some academic aspects." The leftist elder also followed suit.

Academic!

Xia Yuan's eyes flashed, and he said, "About academics, I have a place that may be able to help you."

"Ok?"

Elders have ears.

"University!" Xia Yuan spat out two words.

"University? Institution of higher learning? If you use the books in the library, it may be enough to establish a university. The library has many academic books." An elder said.

"No, the establishment of a university is not that easy. It encompasses all aspects of society. If you want to establish a complete university, it cannot be established with books." The leftist elder said.

Xia Yuan smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about this. Leave the establishment of the university to me. I also guarantee that the disciplines will be very complete, but you still have to find the talents yourself."

"Really? If that's the case, there are a lot of talents in the underground base." said the elder of the right wing.

The smile on Xia Yuan's face was even stronger.

The idea of ​​convincing people with virtue is really great.

These elders are very knowledgeable about academic aspects, and if they play power politics, it will be a mess.
