Chapter 215 How much does 215 cost per pound?

In the spacious and bright office, a man wearing a brown Bunas suit threw the report in his hand on the table and rubbed his temples.

There are six desks in this office, facing each other. Most of the desks are piled with documents, and several officials are busy. However, being busy did not delay the gossip and chat between them.

He looked tired and complained to the man sitting on the desk opposite him: "Can you believe it? A week ago, Bunas had only 650,000 people. Now, it has a population of 700,000. "

"There are too many outsiders here. The local Bunas people only account for less than 10% of the population." The man sitting opposite him said without raising his head while sorting out the documents in his hands. .

 Managing a large city is not as easy as it seems. Many tasks are simply overwhelming.

 This requires a large number of management talents and the hard work of countless officials and minor officials every day. Don’t underestimate these small tasks, as missing one will plunge the entire city into chaos.

 Modern metropolises are powerful in many ways, unmatched by the smaller cities of the past. It has countless advantages and can push human productivity to the peak.

On the other hand, such large cities are also fragile. It only takes one small problem to paralyze a place where thousands of people live.

 Obviously, building a sewer system used by millions of people is much more complicated and troublesome than building a medieval castle.

While beating his other shoulder with his hand, the complaining man pulled out another form: "We have more than half a million workers. Can you imagine? Here, the workers who go to work every day account for one hundred of the total population. Seventy-five points!”

 Their job is statistics, counting the city's development status every day, estimating the direction of improvement in advance, and then giving a pertinent suggestion to the municipal development department.

 It seems that their work is marginal, but this kind of prediction is an important work that supports the development of the entire city.

  If the population reaches a high level and the tap water supply is found to be insufficient, the consequences will undoubtedly be disastrous for a city with a population of close to one million.

 Nowadays, many problems have arisen in Bunas. Some residential areas can only rely on groundwater for water supply. Pressurized water wells are still the main source of water supply, and the tap water system only covers some important blocks.

This city is developing so fast that many slowdowns cannot keep up with the speed of development. As the number of cars increases, whether to install traffic lights has become a headache.

Another colleague said with a smile: "If we hadn't been immigrating to Longcheng continuously, the population here would have been close to one million."

 They have immigrated 100,000 workers to Longdao. Including family members who voluntarily came, the total population has exceeded 200,000.

 Dragon City is now a big city. Looking at the size of the port and the planning of the residential area, the future scale there will be larger than Bunas.

Several people felt a sense of accomplishment, and one of them sighed with emotion: "Can you imagine? How many cities with a population of one million are there in the world? And we are building a new city with a population of one million!"

As he spoke, he proudly spread his arms: "And, from scratch! Rebuilt a city with a population of one million!"

“Do you know that the Immigration Administration is going crazy? They cry every day when verifying their identity. Most people only have one name and no record.”

"They have refugees, craftsmen and slaves plundered from other countries, and even spies installed by Cyric to get information, as well as spies arranged by other countries." The man who complained first came with A bit of teasing and ridicule: "No one can investigate clearly."

“Yeah, have you heard about that nonsense case using a telegraph machine?” As they chatted, everyone started to gossip while working.

"Of course I heard about it. It was said that the first password case occurred at Silver Fox Company." Soon someone talked about the whole story.

As more and more people use telegraph, some people begin to openly challenge Datang Group’s telegraph information monopoly.

 A man spent money to send a meaningless nonsense using the Datang Group’s telegram, thus pioneering the use of the Datang Group’s communication system to transmit encrypted information.

Obviously, smart people figured out how to encrypt their own telegrams, and used the rules reasonably to make it impossible for Silver Fox's intelligence system to easily obtain information.

 “A group of cunning guys.” Soon, a civil servant in this office gave his own evaluation.

Most of the time, work is so boring and boring, but it has to be continued day after day.

 They summarized the number of people who had recently gathered, and then calculated a relatively accurate number, and then used this number to calculate how much material would need to be invested in the city to support the new population.

 Including kilometers of water pipes, heating pipelines in some luxury neighborhoods, newly built power plants, and corresponding supporting sewer systems. In addition, they also need to calculate how much meat and vegetable supplements are needed so as not to increase the price of grain, meat and poultry in Bunas.

 Correspondingly, the production quantity of salt and sugar must also be increased, the output of other condiments must also be increased, and the quantity of daily miscellaneous commodities such as furniture and kitchenware must also be guaranteed.

ˆSimilarly, in order to accommodate this influx of people, they need to build corresponding kindergartens and schools, and increase the number of night training institutions to ensure that these people can become productive in a short time.

 Burnas does not support idle people, this is already a well-known thing. Maybe this statement is too cold-blooded, but it is the fact.

 As long as you have hands and feet, you must work in Bunas. And Bunas does not accept the worthless non-labor population.

 The development of cities is accompanied by cruelty and bloodshed. How many bones were piled up in the shadow under the neon lights was not what Tang Mo cared about.

"It's not that there's no good news, you can't guess it at all." As he said this, a civil servant picked up the newspaper and pointed to an advertisement for workers on it: "You can't even imagine that the rise of Bunas actually wiped out All slave trading business in the Kingdom of Wright."

"Huh?" Sure enough, some people who didn't buy the newspaper looked at the man who spoke in astonishment, waiting for him to continue.

Although he had heard before that the number of slave traders in the Wright Kingdom was decreasing, he never expected that he would be able to wait until the day when the slave traders disappeared.

The man in the brown Bunas suit looked in disbelief and sighed: "You mean, Bunas did what the city guards and the king's orders couldn't do. Its rise has made slaves Business has been completely stopped?"

“Yes.” The official holding the newspaper admitted with a smile.

 Someone asked curiously: "Why?"

"Because those slave traders found that the efficiency of plundering slaves was too low. They have now changed their profession, and their new professional name is intermediaries. These human trafficking **** have now transformed into believers who introduce jobs and charge commissions." After flicking the newspaper in his hand, the official said proudly.

 Now, many cities have specialized agencies responsible for recruiting workers to Bunas or Longdao. Some are even responsible for travel expenses - as long as they successfully introduce a family of immigrants, they can receive a commission of 5 gold coins from Bunas.

 In turn, these intermediaries also take a commission and take away the workers’ salaries for the first three months, so they can be said to be making a lot of money.

The workers who arrive in Bunas will not feel cheated. They will be grateful to those slave traders who were once disgusted by others, and thank them for bringing them to a paradise like Bunas.

Therefore, the previous brutal methods of plundering, deceiving, and forcing others to become slaves obviously did not allow people to follow them to Bunas willingly, so these old villains changed their behavior.

 The methods have become more reasonable, and the processing process has become more legal and more benevolent. There is only one purpose: to successfully pass the qualification review of Bunas.

If once the Immigration Bureau of Bunas discovers behavior that damages the credibility of Bunas city and affects the image of Datang Group, it will really be a happy event that turns into a tragic event.

 “Huh? Believer?” Soon, someone noticed his adjective and continued to ask curiously.

The official holding the newspaper suppressed laughter and showed off the story that his big boss became a god: "Yes, they all believe in Mr. Tang Mo and regard him as the **** in charge of money and business."

“…” No one knew what to say. Many of them had even met Tang Mo and listened to Tang Mo’s lectures in Tang Mo’s class, so they thought this kind of thing was quite funny.

 Because they knew that Tang Mo was not a god, he was a businessman, a businessman who had never said that he was a good person.

Seeing that everyone was holding back their laughter, the official holding the newspaper asked: "What's wrong?"

"They may not know that this **** also sells death." An official said while suppressing a smile.

“Ha! Of course they know!” The official holding the newspaper sneered disdainfully.

“Then why do they still think Mr. Tang Mo is the God of Wealth?” A young official from out of town who had not attended a few classes at night school asked curiously.

The man holding the newspaper replied sarcastically: "Because no matter what you sell, as long as you can make money...trading death is nothing to a group of slave traders. They only care about how much a kilogram of 'death' costs."
