Chapter 494 The Ever-Changing 6th Block

"How many days has it been?" Standing on the roof of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce building, Cao Guangkai in a suit silently looked in the direction of Wanghai City.

"Six days." The guard standing beside him said respectfully.

Has it been six days?

The morning sun dyed the mist with a light golden gleam. Even standing in Su City, more than ten kilometers away, one could still smell the fragrance of order and freedom. It was clear there and there had been no smoke for six days.

After a while, Cao Guangkai spoke slowly.

"How long has that man been away?"

The man he mentioned was naturally Lin Chaoen.

The man who claimed to be the apostle of the highest civilization.

The guard hesitated for a moment, then said in an uncertain tone, "About two months."

Hearing this, Cao Guangkai nodded and said slowly.

"Then he probably won't come."

According to the agreement, if he doesn't come after two months, it means the agreement is over.

"Even God can't stop their rise?" Looking in the direction of the Fishbone Base, Cao Guangkai frowned slightly.

Not long ago, news came from the branch of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce in Hangzhou that the Merchant Federation had reached an agreement with the Crimson Chamber of Commerce to carry out comprehensive cooperation in banks, merchant guilds, and mercenary unions. Although the soldiers did not take a step into Hangzhou City, they have already exported their influence to its interior.

The root of a merchant is currency. What else can control a merchant better than controlling the currency?

Cao Guangkai lowered his head slightly.

He now needs to seriously consider the future of the Crimson Chamber of Commerce.

...

At this moment, there is a scene of prosperity in the sixth block.

The sub-crystal content analyzers that used to be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys have quietly disappeared, replaced by banknote transactions or EP payment transfers. In addition to official acquisitions, the Sixth Street Bank also injected a sufficient amount of money into the market through lending, and at the same time, the Parliament signed the Credit Point Settlement Tax Reduction Act to promote "credit points" for trade.

at first,

People are still skeptical about this currency, but as time goes by, the conversion ratio of credits to subcrystals gradually appreciates. From the initial 1:2 to the current 1:4. If it were not for the strict restriction on the circulation of currency, people would like to throw all the gradually depreciating subcrystals in their hands on the counter of the bank.

It is precisely because the issuance of credit points is limited that the purchasing power of credit points becomes so strong. Printing money endlessly will only turn banknotes into a pile of waste paper. Currently on the black market. The exchange ratio between crystals and credit points has even climbed to 1:6.

On the other hand, the establishment of the Merchant Guild provided merchants with the needs and safety information of Suzhou and Hangzhou and even further afield, and at the same time provided the factories in the Sixth Street District with orders from outside Wanghai City.

The establishment of a branch of the Mercenary Union in Hangzhou also gave the hunters who lost the "hunting ground" of Wanghai City a new way out. Become a mercenary or caravan guard. Go to Hangzhou to open up new trade routes.

At this moment, Jiang Chen is walking on the street in the inner circle, accompanied by Chu Nan and a group of soldiers, patrolling the ever-changing streets.

"Currently, 174 heterogeneous lairs have been wiped out, accounting for 89% of the entire west urban area's elimination work. The remaining 21 heterogeneous nests have a high risk factor, so no mercenary organization has taken over the task alone for the time being."

"Then leave it to the soldiers." Jiang Chen said casually while looking at the bustling street with great interest.

"On the other hand, the owners of the big mines in Suzhou expressed dissatisfaction with us, because the large-scale depreciation of the sub-crystal made his assets shrink by four times in an instant."

heard the words. Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Then what does he mean?"

"They want to buy credits from us at a price of 1:2." Chu Nan teased.

"Reject him, let him talk to the factory in the Sixth Street District." Jiang Chen curled his lips in disdain and said impatiently.

The only one that needs sub-crystal now is the factory in the sixth street. Although in principle, banks also provide factories with credit points to purchase sub-crystals, the officials of the Sixth Street District still encourage them to purchase sub-crystals from private hands. And the fact is that credit points can buy more sub-crystals in private hands.

"They said they couldn't accept the exchange price of 1:6. Their envoys should be losing their temper with Zhao Chenwu and the others in the parliament now. Do you want to see them?"

"No, two days later our people will start a military exercise in the no man's land between Wanghai City and Suzhou City, and 'Fireball-1' will participate in the exercise. We will give them a special seat ticket." Jiang Chen said casually.

Chu Nan smiled knowingly and replied respectfully.

"As ordered."

I believe that after witnessing that extravagant fireworks, all lucky people will re-evaluate their own strength.

The streets are filled with tempting food aromas. The entire snack street is full of various shops. Although these are all food shops, this is probably the most profitable place in the entire inner circle besides the casino. In addition to ordinary restaurants, Jiang Chen also saw a ramen restaurant run by service robots, and a barbecue restaurant run by a foreigner-faced owner. The food supply in the country has gradually increased, and the food of the people in the Sixth Street District has also become more and more abundant.

This scene was absolutely impossible to see a year ago.

Pre-war crops grown without soil, non-mutated livestock bred by cloning techniques. Originally, even aristocratic and wealthy merchants could not eat these luxury goods a few times a year. These days, however, even ordinary people on Sixth Street, if they work hard, have the opportunity to occasionally step into the inner circle for a luxury.

At the end of the street, there is also a street full of lights and feasting.

It's just that looking at the signboard with ambiguous words and the warm-toned neon, you can tell that this place is obviously not a serious place.

In the Sixth Street District, brothels and casinos are places that can operate legally. Even one of the ten councilors in the Sixth Street District runs the largest "entertainment venue" in the inner circle under Jiang Chen's instruction. After all, most of the survivors living here are desperadoes who lick their blood with knives. For those people, only these exciting things can make them feel "alive".

Of course, forced transactions are prohibited. The sixth block does not prohibit the slave trade, but no slaves are allowed to enter the sixth block, and the slave trade is neither taxed nor included in the protection of the gendarmerie.

In other words, anyone who stepped into the sixth street was considered a free person by default, and personal freedom was protected by the constitution enacted by the parliament.

"Do you want to go in and have a look? I will keep a secret for you." Chu Nan smiled teasingly, rubbed his nose and looked at Jiang Chen.

"Let's forget it." Looking at the girl who was flirting with him, Jiang Chen subtly averted his eyes.

The family is almost running out of food, not to mention that he really has no interest in these vulgar foods.

The team skipped the red light street and ended today's trip early. Next, Jiang Chen will go to the Sixth Street District Council Building to check the work of the council this quarter, and at the same time report on the conscription and military action plans for the next quarter.

Finally, Jiang Chen will also meet with eight invited local businessmen to discuss matters related to cooperation.

After turning a corner, the roadblock on the main road attracted Jiang Chen's attention. I saw a few engineering vehicles driving across the smooth concrete road, leaving holes at equal intervals on the road with a sharp instrument like a pile driver. Builders in the back surrounded the holes and stuffed cylindrical black pipes into them.

"What is that?" Jiang Chen pointed to the blocked road,

"They are laying the geomagnetic track, and it was built by a businessman in Hangzhou. In exchange, we provide them with a 2-year maglev car franchise and a 4-year tax exemption policy for car sales." Chu Nan explained with a smile, "When the magnetic track is laid, maglev vehicles will be able to pass on this road."

The magnetic tracks buried under the highway have very low resistance to explosions and nuclear explosions, so they are basically demagnetized or partially demagnetized by bombs during wartime. Now that the Sixth Street District has regained its stability, the economy is growing rapidly, and the per capita income is steadily rising. Naturally, bright-minded businessmen have paid attention to this aspect.

Maglev car?

It finally feels like the future.

Looking at the construction vehicle that was gradually advancing, Jiang Chen could not help but smile on his face.

The seeds of civilization have been planted.

He was relieved to see that it was sprouting. (To be continued.) () "I Have a Suite in the End Times" only represents the opinion of the author Chenxing LL.
