During that plague, Moxu was slightly better.

Only half the population was lost.

After the plague ended, people began to look for effective ways to prevent the same thing from happening again.

Urban public health has become a very important agenda for city managers.

Like other big cities in Gejiu Continent, Moxu has also built a large number of public toilets and garbage transfer stations.

At the same time, the first waterworks was built in Moxu.

Although the price of tap water is very high,

Most poor areas still get free well water from wells.

But in wealthy areas and with few high-rise buildings.

Tap water is becoming more and more widely used.

Among tap water users, Niwan Building is somewhat special.

Due to historical reasons, the tap water used by the residents of the building is almost free.

The water company in the far outskirts needs to set up water towers on some tall buildings in the Demon Ruins.

Most people don't understand what a water tower is.

But the tall building that occupies the other half of the rooftop seems to be the main part of the water tower.

It probably means that the tap water needs to be transported to the water tower through some equipment.

After the water tower is installed, the surrounding areas are lower than the water tower.

After you open the faucet, tap water will flow out.

Niwan Building is the best building in the entire Niwan District.

Of course it is the first choice for water companies to build water towers.

They found the owner of the Niwan Building, which was the Moxu National Bank.

Discuss the construction of a water tower on the rooftop of the building.

At that time, most of the rooms in Niwan Building were empty.

In order to attract tenants, Moxu Bank signed a condition with the water company.

Allow the water company to occupy half of the roof of Niwan Building and build a water tower.

However, the water company allows Niwan Building to use tap water on a monthly basis.

The so-called monthly subscription means that tenants pay a fixed fee every month and can use unlimited tap water.

The water company was just beginning its business.

There are as few tap water users as there are residents of Ni Wan Building.

Anyway, there is enough idle production capacity.

The water company readily agreed to the proposal put forward by Moxu Bank.

The two parties agreed on a ten-year contract for this purpose.

But then the contract turned into a nightmare for the water company.

As more and more people from other counties come to Moxu.

All the rooms in Niwan Building have been rented out.

So much so that even the half of the rooftop that was not given to the water company was built over the house.

Looking at the huge amount of tap water in Niwan Building every month, and the corresponding meager income.

The water company is crying over this self-defeating contract.

I have always wanted to renegotiate the method of paying water bills with Moxu Bank.

Each time, I was flatly rejected by Moxu Bank.

This matter is still under negotiation.

Until another taller building is built in Niwan District, I'm afraid there won't be much to talk about.

In order to prevent the residents on the roof from causing any "pollution" to the huge water tank

After obtaining the consent of Moxu Bank.

The water company built a high wall in the middle of the rooftop to separate the water tank from the residents on the rooftop.

This wall is five meters high, and there is an iron door on the wall.

This allows people from the water company to go to the water tank for regular maintenance and cleaning.

After I finished washing my clothes and returned to my room, I washed the clothes I was wearing in the end.

Xie Sheng lay shirtless on the bed, looking out the window, thinking about something in his mind.

He turned his head sharply and looked in the direction of the door.

I saw a man in blue overalls standing on the inside of the door.

This kind of clothing is not like the jacket that was very popular in later generations.

More like a crudely made suit.

The cloth used and the craftsmanship are very crude.

The man's hands hang naturally, his right hand is free, and his left hand holds a small paper box.

He saw Xie Sheng's eyes looking at him, and he didn't look panicked at all.

A professional smirk appeared on his face.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Xie Sheng?"

"Yes, it's me"

“That’s really great”

As he spoke, the man took another step toward the room.

"Stand there!"

The man seemed frightened and stood still.

"Don't you know you should knock before coming in?"

"But, the door was not closed just now."

"What's the matter with you?"

"I work for Bond Express"

After hearing this name, Xie Sheng was a little confused.

Then I remembered that Bond Express is actually the Moxu National Post Office.

Xie Sheng always thought that it was called Bond Express only in later generations.

But is the National Post Office now called Bond Express?

Or maybe this is the difference between this world and the original world!

"Okay, what should I call you?"

"You can call me courier"

"So, Mr. Courier, what do you want from me?"

"Here's an email for you"

"My email"

Xie Sheng sat up and glanced at the blanket on the bed.

He reached out and pulled up the old sheets and draped them over his shirtless body.

Finally, he put on his shoes and walked towards the courier standing inside the door.

Xie Sheng twitched his nose as he walked towards the courier.

There is a very light but very unbearable smell in the air.

"Have you not showered in a long time?"

"Haha, sir, you really know how to joke. According to company regulations, I must take a shower every day."

The courier had a professional fake smile on his face.

He extended his left hand to Xie Sheng.

He handed the small paper box he had been holding to Xie Sheng.

"Sir, this is your email"
