Urban Sims

clean.

This is the first impression in Zhou Ming's mind.

The streets, overpasses, houses, and roads in front of them are extremely clean and spotless. Under the same pure sunlight, they are like crystals of various colors. The smooth surface reflects the shiny luster.

The second is quiet.

There is almost no noise at the roadside, no roaring of car engines, horns, music of store business, pedestrians passing by are more polite and rarely talk, and try not to make a loud noise when walking.

There are also extremely fresh air with a fragrance of plants, tall and magnificent buildings, garden-like green belts, large lawns neat than football fields, and high-tech like science fiction movies everywhere.

Yes, the technology of this world, from the perspective of transportation only, may lead the earth by a century.

Maglev tracks are everywhere, there are maglev trains on viaducts, a group of several, can carry hundreds of passengers, fly around the city, can reach most places in the city want to reach, or go to other cities.

The lower and middle floors also have magnetic tracks for maglev vehicles, and they are wide two-way six-lane roads. Overheads are installed at intersections, and there are almost no traffic lights.

There is also a pedestrian walkway exclusively for pedestrians. This suspension path is only more than one meter wide. It can be suspended on a skateboard-style personal vehicle. It is called a "floating flying board" and can fly up to 30 kilometers per hour. Above, there is another type of suspension board vehicle with ancient bicycle pedals, which can generate electricity through the pedal to carry out suspension flight. This "floating bicycle" is not only energy-saving and environmentally friendly, but also exercise, and can be rented at a lower price. , Very popular with the elderly.

There are also advertisements that appear in the air using three-dimensional projection technology between high-rise buildings, many "smart communication devices" that can be projected on the wrists of pedestrians, AR glasses worn on the eyes, etc .... all tell Zhou Ming The magical technology of this world has brought infinite convenience to people's daily life.

In addition, in this city called "Yaoxing City", the proportion of robot applications is quite high. There are a lot of solar-powered sweeping robots on the road; there are robot shopping guides who help sell the goods in the store; the police who maintain the law and order are also strong. The robot partner; as for those fully automated factories that Zhou Ming did not see, the number of workers needed for various types of robots may be only a few people.

While walking and watching, he wandered around the city like a dumpling for a long time. Gumbling, Zhou Ming's stomach was hungry. He found a place to eat and fill his stomach.

"Drip ~"

I swiped the electronic consumer card, bought a bowl of hot udon noodles in a noodle shop, spent 10 credit points, a large amount, a lot of green onions floating on it, the taste is also quite good, I can't see this at all It was made by a smart kitchen robot.

In the afternoon, I took a maglev train to go around the city a few times, enjoying the scenery of the whole city, but when I went out, I swiped 36 credit points, which made me think that only a few credit points will be spent. Ming was taken aback. I did not expect that these maglev trains are so smart that they can count the distance traveled by each passenger, and then charge according to the distance. It is not that you can sit casually when you go in.

So Zhou Ming saved a little for dinner, spent 6 credits, bought a bag of bread in the store, and bought a bottle of mineral water for 2 credits, and ate half full.

After a day of shopping, I was tired of shopping. Zhou Ming wanted to find a hotel to rest and sleep and take a hot bath. As a result, I found a cheap hotel with a single room of 50 credits a night after I found most of the night. After entering this single room, Zhou Ming Surprised, the three-square-meter room is smaller than the cell area, and it does n’t even have a bed, just lying on the smooth floor, and then covering it with a blanket to go to bed. If you do n’t provide free hot water bath, he would rather sleep on the street Don't sleep in this place.

After getting up the next day, I remembered the credit points on the electronic consumer card. I spent less than 400 points in one day. The remaining money can only last for a few days at most. Zhou Ming ’s playful thoughts are weak, and he wants to find a job and stabilize first. Come down, or you will be exhausted, and eating will become a problem.

However, throughout the day, in this medium-sized city with a population of one million, Zhou Ming was shocked to find that no matter where he was, he could not even see a "recruitment notice" or a recruitment advertisement.

So he went into some stores with a cheeky face, found the store manager or manager, and asked them if there was no shortage of people in the store. He wanted to find a job, and he was not very demanding in terms of treatment.

"Sorry, there is no shortage of people in this shop."

"Sir, I'm sorry, this shop does not recruit people."

"No recruitment, no recruitment in all positions."

"Boy, you just came up from the lower zone, you don't know the rules here, so, if you want to find a job, I can help you, but there is a condition." A smart glasses repair shop After seeing Zhou Ming, his boss's small eyes lighted up, with a charming tone.

"What conditions?" Zhou Ming frowned slightly and asked with his ear.

"Give me the money from you, and I promise to help you find a job that is easy and rewarding." The repair shop owner said, staring at Zhou Ming's jacket pocket, and letting out a trace Greedy light.

"Really?" Zhou Ming smiled slightly and asked.

"Really, really." He nodded and his words became a little urgent.

"that……"

Zhou Ming opened the zipper in an effort to pull out the money, and when the owner of the repair shop became so hot that he reached out to pick it up, he suddenly picked up the cup of tea on the table and walked out. He said to his head: " Leave this job to others, thank you for your tea. "

"Asshole, you dare to play me!"

The owner of the repair shop gave a roar of anger and frustration. When Zhou Ming had gone, he could only scold at his back: "Dirty lower-level mouse, you can't find any job, and you will get to it in a few days. Go to your dirty sewer! "

Zhou Ming stepped in, thought for a while, and then moved on.

Things really turned out to be what the repair shop owner expected. In the next three days, Zhou Ming still found nothing. The credit points on his body cost less than 200 points.

In order to save money, he went to the cheapest poor restaurant and bought a compressed nutrition meal for 5 credits (the taste is exactly the same as the compressed nutrition meal he had eaten in the underground mine for 18 years); when he was in a hurry, he found a place anywhere To urinate (to spend money on public toilets, 1 credit point once); do not sleep in the hotel at night, just lie on a bench in the park for a night, when it rains, go to the roof of the building to squat for a while.

On the fifth day, Zhou Ming asked thousands of stores through various methods, and completely lost confidence in finding a job. Moreover, seeing him so urgently looking for a job, more and more "enthusiastic people" took the initiative or semi-actively. , Expressing the meaning of helping him, recommending a job to him.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the money in his pocket should be given to him (her) as an introduction fee.

Zhou Ming refused all these "good intentions" and gradually gave up the idea of ​​finding a job and began to think about what to do in order to continue to survive after the credit point was spent.

"Little guy, how are you looking for a job recently? People from all over the city have been talking about you for the past two days, saying that you stinky mouse hasn't handed over the money yet, so obediently ... The fat man is a hero of the city. "

Tonight, a rare obese man, wearing a big metal chain around his neck, holding a baseball bat, and a few colorful boys with hair dyed, came to Zhou Ming sleeping on a bench in the park and issued this After the sound, Zhou Ming opened his eyes and immediately sat up from the chair, rubbing his fists and said to them: "How come it is now? A city with a population of one million, only a few of you bastards? Is the law and order so good? "

The elder brother was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious: "Brothers, die him! A lower-level stinky mouse, dare to pretend to be in front of my elder brother? Get me to death!"

"Ah!" "Ah!"

"Damn!"

"Forgive life, forgive life!"

"Don't fight, don't fight, please don't fight!"

Ten or more minutes later, seven or eight people, including the fat elder, lay on the ground and uttered a wailing scream. The fatal elder led the worst. His hand was discounted, and his face was swollen and bruised. , Repeatedly begging for mercy.

The vent was almost over. He grabbed the fat man's hair and dragged him to the bench. Two large-mouthed melon seeds passed by, two **** teeth fanned out, and some questions were asked.

Two hours later, after asking the answers to most of the questions, Zhou Ming called Fat Boss and transferred all the credit points on his electronic consumer card (the electronic consumer card needs fingerprint matching when used, directly grab the past use No), a total of more than 8,000 credit points, then call a green hair of similar size to him, take off his clothes, and put his own mouse suit (the blue suit provided by the hospital, the city ’s citizens, said behind It was called a "rat suit", and it was also a sign of the entrants in the lower zone). It was replaced, and he wore this set of clothes that were full of holes and seemed to be fluid.

Early the next morning, I spent 200 credits, took a suspended taxi, and reported a location. In the 99th floor of a 119-story building in the city center, Zhou Ming finally found a place to find a job. .

Or, it should be said that you can "buy" to work.

This place called "professional exchange", any job transaction information can be seen on the information panel in the center of the hall.
