Jean Of Bright City 13

4 AM

Sock woke up from his sleep. The crystal beside him was still asleep. He got up and went to the living room without turning on the light. He saw a man sitting upright in the living room. This was a new human.

Sock walked out of the living room, came to the balcony, and lit a cigarette. They had been living here for many days, and they could not go anywhere except in the room.

Because Fett has been arrested for a while, their identities are very likely to be exposed, and now all creators live in the homes of new humans.

They had to hide in the dark for a while, everyone was now like a headless fly, because Frye was no longer there.

Sock wanted to go back to the past, but he couldn't go back, because now there was only one road waiting for them, which was shattered.

Thok doesn't think what the creators can do now. It's only a matter of time to find them. Once the Action Division realizes that some of the people in the city have been replaced with new humans, they will definitely find the creators.

When the time comes, the creators who are unable to resist can only wait for their extinction. Sock doesn't know why he wants to get involved in such meaningless things. These days, he will think back to the days on the street every day.

Click

The door to the balcony was opened and Crystal came out.

"What's the matter, can't you fall asleep?"

Sock nodded dullly, and Crystal moved towards him.

"Let me help you."

Sock was in no mood at all.

"Don't you like your previous life?"

"I like it, why don't you like it."

Crystal began to chatter, something interesting on the street.

"Do you still want to execute the plan now?"

The crystal hand held his cheek.

"Of course, of course I want to execute and destroy this city."

Crystal giggled.

"Why are you irrelevant?"

Thok felt a hint of coolness, and Crystal's hand pressed against Thok's neck.

"If you dare to quit, I will kill you first, Sock!"

Crystal's words were chilling, and she laughed presumptuously in a very loud voice.

"I don't know how others are doing now."

As Sock said, Crystal put down his hand and looked at the night sky in the distance coldly.

"We have no choice, and everyone else is the same. Do you think Zhao Zhen really failed?"

Sock looked at Crystal in confusion, her expression was much more normal.

"You will see soon, Zhao Zhen did not fail, it was only the people who failed."

5 AM

With a loud bang, Mansha kicked over a chair. She took a bottle of wine irritably, took a big sip, and then yelled with red eyes.

"I must kill that bitch."

Jaelin, who got up on the bed, laughed.

"What else can you do when you go out? In the past, you were able to do a lot of things in the film and television zone because you had a star aura bonus, but now it's different. I'm afraid you will be arrested as soon as you show up."

Mansha has had enough of such an underground life. The hatred of Chense in her heart is increasing day by day, and she can't wait to pass by now and choke Chense to death.

"No matter how angry you are, it's useless. Now we are at a disadvantage and we can only hide in a proper way."

"Is there no way? I have to kill Chen Se."

Jaelyn shook her head.

"If you like to go out and die, you can go to the street early tomorrow morning and yell, and go to bed soon."

Mansha was angry, but she originally thought everything would go smoothly, because everything seemed so smooth.

But now that she has fallen into such a field, Mansha can't stand it anymore. This is the same as her previous life and the other is underground.

"I must......."

Suddenly Mansha felt like she was pinched, Jaelin's eyes were reddish, and red particles were floating in the air.

"You heard Mansha clearly, it's not like before. If you are still making noise, or even have the idea of ​​exposing this place, I will kill you first."

Mansha nodded and stopped making noise. After sleeping quietly, Jie Lin glanced at the wine on the table, got up and walked over to take a sip, then turned off the light, walked to Mansha's side, and hugged comfortingly. Holding her.

"It's okay, it will get better."

10 o'clock in the morning

On the streets of the middle-level 55 district, many people holding signs stood outside the district authority, protesting silently. People from the 5th department were already standing aside, ready to maintain order at any time.

The sign was full of words "Give back work to us and give back life to us."

Except for some streets that are still lively in the middle level, many streets can no longer see the prosperity of the past. Everyone knows what happened. Many companies have temporarily moved to the ground floor. The ground floor is now the busiest. Every district is crowded. Full of people.

Many companies have made exceptions to work for many people at the bottom. Some people have a job, and some people will be unemployed. Some middle-aged and older people who have just been unemployed find it difficult to accept this reality.

Many people’s jobs have been abandoned by some young people, and the two huge constructions at the bottom have allowed businessmen to see infinite business opportunities. Pen, and the labor cost of the bottom layer is much lower than that of the middle layer.

Although the district authority has coordinated with the business people in various aspects, it has also told the residents in the area that it is temporary and it will be fine after waiting for a while, but many people cannot wait at all. The anxiety of losing their jobs and life is already in the middle. It spread.

And now most suppliers will supply materials to the bottom layer because they can be sold out very quickly. After all, the bottom layer's consumption power is now exploding.

Some goods in the middle level even had faults, and many of them couldn't even buy what they wanted, so they had to go to the ground floor to buy by subway, and then come back.

The martial law some time ago has already put a serious burden on the supply of cities. Now resources can only be given priority to the bottom layer under construction.

In particular, the western factory area, which is in full swing, is an important area for resource allocation, while other areas seem to be ignored. The only thing that has not changed much is the upper level. The middle level has undergone drastic changes in just one week. .

Many people are dissatisfied with the lack of daily necessities and the depression of the entire street. Most shops have even closed down. Many people bring their families and go directly to the bottom for development, because everyone wants to seize the opportunity to make money.

In the area on the ground floor, the streets where no one could be seen for a whole day in the past are already overcrowded. For those shops that were not cared for at RMB 50 in the past month, the rent has risen to 1,000 or even higher a month. Can't rent.

This kind of madness is unpredictable for many people. Many people who did not intend to go to the bottom to blend in have closed the shops on their own, because in such an unmanned street, the continued opening of the shops will only cause the shops to suffer losses, and many self-employed people will take advantage of it. Life on vacation.

Although many people know that this may only be temporary, because those who have gone to the bottom will inevitably return to the middle, but many people feel helpless that the Phoebus family has already gotten The construction rights of the two expelled areas have already begun to cooperate with other major families, and they are preparing to turn the two areas into low-level commercial districts because they are close to waste treatment plants.

The quota for investment and construction is already full. Some ordinary people simply cannot get the quota for investment and can only watch others make money. Such dissatisfaction spreads among most middle-level groups.

Although it is still possible to invest in the establishment of agricultural bases in barrier areas, such risks are unacceptable for many people. Although there have been improvements in the experimental grounds in cities, they are only caused by sunlight. Many people still don't know what the dark barrier area is all about.

Several members of the district authority looked at the crowded crowd outside, and didn't want to go out to explain anything, because the explanation was useless.

These local residents have made too many contributions to the region over the years, but now the merchants have left, and the damage to them is great. No one wants to see their lives suddenly collapse.

As an economist, Hu Youran reminded very early that the behavior of allowing businessmen to freely invest and divest in various regions is very dangerous, because once the capital leaves the market, there is only a piece of chicken feathers left.

No one expected that Hu Youran’s remarks would be verified in just a few years. Capital has already gone to the bottom in a large amount. This is also inevitable. In the past, their middle-level parliamentarians could better be in the middle-level for business people. Investing in all aspects led to the drafting of a bill on free business and finally passed the Congress.

Businessmen can freely invest in any area in the middle level, but the only thing that needs to be noted is that businessmen in the association cannot engage in vicious competition.

This has brought benefits to the middle level. Under the continuous driving of the business people, the middle level economy has been extremely stable all year round, because the business people will always connect the bottom layer to promote an industrial chain from the bottom to the middle, and let the bottom economy Can be transformed to the middle level.

It’s a pity that all of this no longer exists, and most people in Congress turn one eye and close one eye. Especially the lower-level members are now basically standing on the opposite side of the middle-level members and acting. Ke is completely standing at the bottom level.

The middle-level legislators are no longer recruited. In the past one or two days, people in the area have come over every day.

The only thing the councillors look forward to is that the waste treatment plant will be built soon and put into use earlier, so that the economy will return to the middle level, because the middle level always has a more mature technical soil, and many high-end industries can only work in the middle level. Unfolding, the bottom layer cannot meet the needs of these industries.

There are also more mature and diverse business systems and business chains at the middle level. As long as these still exist, businessmen will not be able to build another one at the bottom level. After all, it takes too much time and energy.

And business people always understand that only the middle level is the place with the most stable interests.

There was a voice outside the district authority. Some reporters arrived. Many people in the area were talking about the difficulties they were facing. Several members of the congressmen did not speak. At this time, an old congressman came over. His name was Jin Biao has served as a member of Parliament for decades.

"I'll go out and explain."

The young parliamentarians nodded their heads and followed. After Jin Biao went out, reporters soon gathered around. Outside the five-section wall, many people talked about the current predicament.

"We know everyone's plight, but please bear with me for a while. After only a period of time, everything will be restored. I promise you that it will be restored at most one month."

This is not unfounded because the bottom layer is under construction on a large scale, and the construction cycle will not be too long. After the construction of many things is completed, the rest will not need so many workers, what is needed is Technical personnel, the flow of people at the bottom will return to the middle again.

Gold Label is very clear about the business people’s strategy. Now many of the bottom-level products are low-end and cheap products, while some of the mid-range products are still in the middle. After many people at the bottom have money, they will be able to consume some of the middle End products, and then they will only go to the middle to buy, which is also very clear to the merchants.

Finally, under the persuasion of Jin Biao, the crowd gradually dispersed.

"I'll run again, teacher."

Jin Biao glanced at his student Zhou Yang. He was his most proud student. He served as a member of Parliament at a young age. Although he was still immature, he did a lot of work well.

Watching Zhou Yang go out, some reporters followed, but Zhou Yang declined the interview. He ran quickly, and soon entered a company building, but Zhou Yang did not go to the company building. After entering the bathroom, a man followed.

Zhou Yang quickly took out a testing instrument and looked at the man after the inspection.

"It's Mr. Zorn."

Zhou Yang asked, washed his face, and X nodded.

"I have a batch of light and shadow substances in my hand, the price is eight million."

X nodded, and directly took out a bunch of cards, there were a hundred cards in total.

"is it safe?"

Zhou Yang asked, he glanced at the credit card in his wallet, which was all 10,000.

"This is a deposit, I will pay it in full when the transaction is made."

As X said, Zhou Yang nodded. He has been very poor in the past few years, even as a member of Parliament. After that, Zhou Yang used his position to get some light and shadow materials and accumulated After a lot of money, he did not make a move, but waited for the city to conduct several black market investigations before selling it.

"How long will it take to trade? I need it urgently."

X said Zhou Yang and laughed.

"It's okay now, but I can't guarantee that you will give me the money in the future."

Zhou Yang carried a bag of cards, and X laughed.

"Give me a few days. These light and shadow substances are in the company's building."

Zhou Yang nodded.

"Within three days, if you bring the remaining 7 million, we can trade directly."

X hummed out of the bathroom.

Zhou Yang looked at himself in the mirror and smiled.

"I don't want to be a poor teacher for a lifetime like you!"
