Chapter 34
After selling the equipment, Lu Li sent a message to inquire about the progress of the Blue Sea Breeze. After receiving a positive answer, he went offline to go to bed.
The next day was the weekend. When I woke up early in the morning, Lu Li and his sister had a simple breakfast, and left home to find a house.
From a sociological perspective, since the emergence of private ownership, humans have inevitably experienced polarization. No matter how advanced technology is, this will not change at all, and will even become more and more intense.
Today in the 23rd century, the gap between the rich and the poor has not been eliminated, but also has slums and civilian areas. Although there is no such division in the official files, it is actually the case.
Slums are homes for unemployed people, and they rely on government relief to barely live. They have no right to education and medical care. The reason why the Lu brothers and sisters live so hard is because Lu Li gave her sister the opportunity to go to school, hoping that she can find a good job one day and marry into a civilian or even a wealthy area.
Civilian areas are the working class, or the low-income class, and most of them cannot pay any taxes. However, because they can create social value, they have certain civil rights and their living conditions are much better than those in slums.
Most of the players in the early stages of Dawn Game were rich, at least civilians. As for the poor, they could only apply for suicide squads and gold medalists.
As for the rich areas, the group with the smallest number of people holds almost all the social wealth and naturally enjoys more power.
Lu Li’s account now has more than 30,000 real coins. Don’t think about buying a house. Even if you can’t buy it in a civilian area, there is absolutely no problem with renting a house.
They are looking for houses in civilian areas now, with good public security and schools nearby, so the consumption level should be lower...
"Brother, look, there are patrolmen here in broad daylight," Lu Xin pointed it at Lu Li in surprise.
The little sister of the Lu family is a little beauty. She is naturally beautiful and has no sense of security since she was a child. Fortunately, her brother is very good at fighting and can only grow up safely in a slum-like environment.
"Because this is close to our slums, the control is stricter," Lu Li explained. This is really a hurtful answer. The patrol police who made Lu Xin feel very friendly was actually the people in the slums.
"Brother, if we find a house here, then are we still poor?" the little girl looked hopeful.
"Xinxin, the reason why we are poor is not because we live in slums, but because we don't have money. Once we have money, we are naturally not poor," Lu Li swears in his heart that he will never let his sister be inferior because of his identity in this life.
"Yes, brother, you are so awesome. You have made money in just two days." The brother is always the most powerful, and his eyes are full of little stars.
"Xinxin, we won't find a house here," a girl was praised and she was excited. She didn't know what it was in the east, west, south and north. She said proudly: "Let's go, let's go to the rich area!"
"Brother, really?!" The next second of happiness, Lu Xin began to hesitate again, "But brother, are we enough money? And we have to plan for the future. What if... if... I can't make money one day, what should I do?"
It is normal for a girl to worry about, but it is normal for human nature.
But she didn't know that the sister-controlled person was most afraid of being questioned by her sister. What? My brother won't make money in the future, so this is completely impossible!
However, the more Lu Li thought about it, the more he felt that moving to the rich area was good. The living conditions there were really good. The slums looked like the kind of dilapidated place that was to be demolished two hundred years ago. The civilian area was the level of the suburbs, and the rich area was truly worthy of the technological development of the past two hundred years.
After getting on the hover car, the Lu brother and sister set out directly to the wealthy area.
The rich area is large, but the flow of people is not large. In addition to some specific areas, there are no obvious high-rise buildings. The residential areas are full of green trees, and there are even precious plants that have become extinct two hundred years ago.
The animal and plant DNA that has been preserved for two hundred years has gradually been restored to humans, and many suitable ones have been kept in villas and manors in wealthy areas.
"Do you want to rent a house here?" Most of the receptionists came from civilian areas and did not have the problem of being inferior to others. They just said in a bit embarrassing manner: "According to the regulations of the district government, if you want to settle here, you must have a guarantee fee of one million in your account."
"One million," Lu Li was immediately discouraged.
"Brother, forget it," Lu Xin pulled Lu Li's arm and said in a low voice.
"Actually you can go to the university town," the receptionist reminded.
"Yes," Lu Li suddenly realized that if you want a good living environment, you may not necessarily come to the rich area.
There was a big storm when choosing a location for a university town.
It was more than 170 years ago, when the government spent a huge amount of money to build a university town, intending to plan all the universities in this city together.
I originally planned to choose a wealthy area, but after all, who doesn’t want to build a school at their doorstep? The members of the council are all from the wealthy area.
No one expected that the civilians and the poor who had always endured humiliation would react so much, with no one in factories, no one in schools, no water and electricity, no traffic, and even the army fell into chaos, and several members of parliament were assassinated by their subordinates.
There was no choice but to build the university town at the junction of civilian areas and wealthy areas.
Although the controversy is still there, the chaos has finally subsided. The university town has become a buffer between a civilian area and a wealthy area, which has both room for civilians to survive and very good living conditions.
It was already eleven o'clock in the morning when the Lu brother and sister came here. Lu Li planned to go directly to the villa area of the Xingyue Guild. He had been there and was familiar with the environment there.
This is a garden villa area, with four office buildings in front and residential areas in the back.
Lu Li pulled Lu Xin, skipped the real estate agent with the sign hanging, and walked directly through the office building and entered the residential area.
"Brother, I heard that the agent is the place to introduce the house, why don't we ask them to help?" Lu Xin turned her head and tried to look back at the real estate agent.
"Silly girl, real estate agencies are all lie. Rent the worst housing supply to you, and rent out the best next time. When you encounter a worse housing agency, you may even lie with the landlord. So, if you don't find an agent, don't find an agent," Lu Li looked like a parent and taught his life philosophy to his sister like a blank paper.
Miss Lu Xin had no doubt at all, and her eyes were immediately filled with defense when she saw the real estate agents.
"Then how do we know which house is for rent here?"
"Two methods are to look for online, or look at the publicity and notice boards in the community," in his previous life, Lu Li also moved out of the slums with his sister, but he lived in a civilian area and his life was not very good, otherwise he would not be unable to treat his sister in time because he had no money.
"Then do we want to find it online?"
"Most of the pictures on the Internet are fake. Why not look at them truthfully. Let's go to the publicity column first." For hundreds of years, people's habits have not changed. There is an empty space next to the electronic publicity column, which is specially designed for people to post some things.
Those who purchase second-hand computer virtual helmets, clinics treat chronic diseases, and of course, some houses are subleted and shared.
The two siblings were crowded together and discussing which of the posted messages was suitable. Just as they were about to choose one to start calling, they heard someone behind them say impatiently: "Have you seen enough? Can you dodge me and post something?"
