Chapter 836 The Fifth City's Routine!

Song cared about this but expressed his firmness. Faced with Smith's dissuasion, he said very seriously: "Smith, I understand your concerns, but our people must get the boat tickets as soon as possible, because they have to compete with the other four cities. Only by opening up the sea market faster can we give full play to the advantages of our civilization. This is determined by the characteristics of civilization. You must know that we are not the only civilization that can build ships. If the sea market is preempted by other cities, our civilization that eats ocean resources will be It's going to be very passive, you understand, Smith?"

smith silence

Song Zaiyi sighed. He recognized this foreigner very much in his heart. The other party was a talented person who was deceived by a capital consortium. He pursued safe and not radical behaviors. This was the reason why he liked him.

In the future, after making a name for himself, this guy will be the best conservative

"But these life skills are all service-oriented." Smith hesitated for a moment before analyzing another drawback: "In order to protect the finances in the later period, the interest we offer is not low, even higher than the general base. How many citizens are willing to choose loans for making money in life skills? After all, most people now have the ideal of being a private lord, not with the mentality of a migrant worker."

"But before many capitalists became capital, he was a part-time worker." Song Zai said with a smile: "Everyone wants to reach the sky in one step, but it is unrealistic. I always think that among the four routes in the New Territories, the Gondolin route is the most realistic route. Master a life skill, earn the first initial capital in your life there, and then go out to start a business, then you are the real doer. Those who take the southern grassland route are speculators. New cities like ours can’t learn from some people That encourages speculation”

Smith: ""

"There is at least a way to learn a skill. There are great opportunities in this place, but it doesn't mean that everyone can succeed. On the contrary, there are always more people who fail than succeed. After all, there are only a few players who can become lords, so they can't become lords. Don’t you want to live?” Song Zaiyi sighed and said, “Learning a craft also gives them a guarantee. At least after losing the competition, there is still the possibility of a comeback. Smith, don’t forget our purpose, I’m here It is to make people who follow us live better, so we should suppress that kind of speculative thinking, instead of allowing this kind of speculative thinking to spread like a certain guy, and use big cakes to trick the public!"

Song Carey obviously showed disgust on his face when he mentioned a certain guy, Smith was taken aback, and immediately realized who the other party was referring to.

Among the five major cities today, Mister, who has always emphasized the freedom of residents, is the one who most encourages the dream of the lord of the masses. However, he is a little puzzled. Why does Song care about saying that Mister is playing tricks on the people? "

On the surface, the operation mode of the fifth city is very similar to that of the third city. It is developed in multiple directions. It not only vigorously develops the mining industry, but also develops a large number of agriculture and animal husbandry. Workshops for the service industry are also being established. The only difference is that it does not Mandatory for citizens to learn a life skill like Song Cares

Of course, the Fifth City did not spend as much money as Song Care in the early stage. It was all to the point. Naturally, there were places for training life skills such as forging, tailoring, enchanting cooking, etc., and there were also tutors, but the quota was very small. less.

Faced with 200,000 citizens, the fifth city's current quota is far from enough. This kind of multi-faceted development without spending money makes Meister's secretary Ryan a little puzzled.

At this time, he was also inquiring in the city master's room.

"My lord, the development cycle of our arcane civilization is slow in the early stage, and the demand for energy is also great. Why don't we focus on development like Angel? Agriculture and animal husbandry are not what we are good at. Why spend resources on it? Life skills training is also , if you want to improve the competitiveness of the people, is this investment too little?"

Mister laughed and said: "The multi-faceted investment is to give the people more choices and make us look less authoritarian. Our slogan is Free Federation. If it is as authoritarian as Angel and Song care about it, isn't it Smash the signboard?"

Ryan: ""

Mister continued: "As for the life skills training you mentioned, the current investment is the most reasonable. If there is too much investment, like Song Cares, we will have to bear a large amount of loans. If the loan is too large, in order to ensure the city's finances If we can get back our capital in the future, do we have to pass the above interest on to the public? Will the public scold us for being unscrupulous when they see such a high-interest loan? Do you think Song Cares about being scolded now? Let’s take a look at our life skills Is the loan for training a lot more humanized?"

"It's not enough!" Ryan frowned and said, "We didn't borrow money from above, the cost is not high, and the loan interest rate can naturally be set more reasonably, but the current scale let alone 200,000 residents, the learning space of 20,000 residents is enough Can not guarantee!"

"Do you need a guarantee?" Mist asked with a smile.

"Eh?" Ryan was stunned: "What do you mean, my lord?"

"Literally." Mister's smile became brighter: "Do you really think that the people who come here will be willing to come here step by step? A few days ago, we hyped up the opportunities in the southern grasslands. Why do you think that is?"

Ryan's face darkened: "Speaking of this question, I have long wanted to ask, why do adults encourage this kind of speculation? You should clearly know that the route of the southern grassland is the most unreliable one-hop route."

"But it's also the easiest way to reach the sky in one step!" Mister interrupted the other party: "Do you know why there are so many stock investors? Because everyone thinks that they are different, and they will definitely make money if others lose money!"

Ryan: ""

Meister: "This can be seen from the data. Now our city has the lowest interest rate on life skills training loans, but the application rate is also the lowest. The number of applicants has not exceeded 1,000. Facts have proved that they are willing In fact, there are not many practical people, and the scale of our settings is completely sufficient.”

"But that's because you over-promoted the southern grasslands, sir?" Ryan frowned.

"Not promoting is just one aspect." Mister waved his fingers and said, "The important thing is what they are willing to believe. Song cares about promoting honestly, taking loans, learning life skills, and solid life skills. I was scolded to death. I promoted the South Prairie Xunmeng is now full of people cheering, do you know why? Because from the bottom of their hearts, they want to hear my statement more, even if my statement is actually wrong, but the masses are more willing to believe this!"

"What good does this do for the development of our city?" Ryan's face was gloomy!

"The benefits are great!" Meister laughed: "What is the most important wealth of the city? Is it these resources and technology? No, it is the population. These populations that can create the future are the most important things in the city. Determining these populations is an art, let me ask you, if a hundred thousand people rush into the southern grasslands, how many people do you think will become lords?"

Ryan bowed his head in silence for a while, hesitated for a while and said cautiously: "According to the inferences from the data of Huaxia City today, there are probably about a thousand people."

"You really overestimated them." Mister sneered, "The southern grassland was blank before, and there were less than 500 lords among the 50,000 Central China players. Now that the market there has been occupied so much, it's only now. And most of the aptitude is not as good as that of Central China players, you actually think the probability can reach 1%? Just kidding, it would be nice to have a hundred!"

"Then why do you still want to make such a publicity?" Ryan frowned.

"Didn't you just say that? To bind the population!" Mister said with a smile: "I will prepare a loan for every Destiny's Child who is going to go to the southern grasslands, and the loan interest rate will not be too high. If it is successful, Then make a good relationship with the future private lord player. I have supported him in the early stage. I think they will pay taxes honestly according to the rules. The point is naturally those who fail. Those who fail have nothing. What should I do if I owe a loan? I can provide a second loan for them to learn a life skill to make a living. Of course, because you have a previous record of defaulting on a loan, your credit rating has dropped, and you want to apply for a second loan Interest rates are definitely different”

Ryan's pupils shrank, and he immediately understood what the other party meant.

"And this second loan opportunity is to bind their future life opportunities, understand? My little Ryan!" Mister blinked at the secretary and said.

Ryan couldn't help shivering all over his body. This fat man who looks harmless to humans and animals and speaks humorously is an evil capital who really eats people and doesn't spit out his bones!
