Longyang County is one of the five major cities in the Kingdom of Malaysia. It has a population of hundreds of thousands and various industries are extremely developed. The industrial zone under its jurisdiction can produce advanced steam rail cars and super cannons. It is the most important industrial town in Malaysia. The county city is adjacent to the Nilong River, has an extremely good commercial terminal, and the freight is also extremely developed, which can radiate the entire country of Singapore and Malaysia.

　　 The main city of the whole city is surrounded by a huge wall that is more than ten meters high. The streets in the city are crisscrossed with high-rise buildings everywhere. Being in it makes you feel like a world away.

Luo Kai lay dozing under an overpass. There was a dilapidated second-hand tricycle next to him. This was his tool for making a living. He couldn't stand the constraints of factories or other units. If he wanted to support himself, he had to make a living on his own. This tricycle It was he bought it for two hundred star yuan, and he can pull goods or people. If he is lucky, he can earn more than one thousand star yuan a month. With his appetite, he can barely fill his stomach.

He has been in this city for more than two months. He wanted to go directly to the Shangjing city of Dongyuan Shangguo, but found that it is not easy to travel long distances in this world, because Singapore and Malaysia have extremely strict management of population movement. To go abroad, you must apply for a pass, which is the passport of the previous life, and this passport can only be processed by the employees of some large business groups. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people. Of course, if they have money, they can do anything. Ordinary people can entrust some business groups. The price is around one hundred thousand stars.

Xingyuan is a universal currency of the human country after the cataclysm. It is issued by the most powerful country Dongyuan Shangguo. In order to prevent the economy from being controlled by the Dongyuan Shangguo, other lords also have a metal currency, which is a mixed currency. Some precious metal gold and iron coins are also common currency.

　　 This is actually a kind of financial plunder, but other lords often fall into turmoil, the regime is not stable enough, the credibility cannot support a credit currency such as paper money, and it has no choice but to bear it.

　　 The annual income of a low- and middle-level household is between 20,000 and 30,000 stars, which means that an average family can earn money for passports without eating or drinking for several years.

The world’s transportation is extremely developed, not inferior to previous lives. All kinds of railways, roads, and waterways between human countries are connected in all directions. Of course, there is also air transportation. Large steamships can transport hundreds of guests at a time, and are not affected by terrain or Other factors affect.

There are also many types of bandit road tyrants corresponding to the developed traffic. Among them, the South China Sea pirates are the most famous, and the Star-Malaysian navy is not strong. Coupled with a big defeat last year, almost all offshore shipping is controlled by pirates. Merchant ships have to pay every time. Only a huge amount of money to buy roads can pass.

The transportation in the city is mainly rail cars, and a small number of steam-powered taxis. The others are manpower tricycles. Luo Kai is in this business, that is, the coachman. He is too lazy to make fun of soliciting customers, so the business is very poor, even to feed. It's very difficult for myself.

　　 Of course, if it is particularly difficult, he will go to Nilongjiang Wharf to carry bags and work as a porter. He can earn one hundred and eighty yuan a day, and his survival is not a big problem.

　　 The sky gradually dimmed, and at night, the luminous stone lamps emitting white light at the intersections of various streets in the city began to light up, making the whole city shrouded in the hazy white light, which was extremely beautiful.

　　……

Unconsciously slept for another day, Luo Kai stretched his waist, stepped on a tricycle, rode towards the house he rented, and watched the various people on the street along the way. He finally had a kind of thing that he still survives in this world. a feeling of.

I don’t know why, he has become lethargic since the last time he used the qi and blood surge ability, and his head has been in a drowsy state all day. One of the reasons why he doesn't work hard to make money.

　　 He lives in a place called Lobster Alley in the outer ring of the main city. It belongs to the junction of towns and is surrounded by various small industrial workshops. There are low housing prices and a large number of low-paid laborers like him live there.

After passing through the gate of the city wall, we came to the outer city. An hour later, accompanied by the clanging of an old tricycle, a broken street appeared in front of us. The cement road was full of big pits, and there were various shops on both sides of the street. There are shampoos, restaurants, bathhouses, clinics, etc. The facades are all half-old iron doors, fluorescent stone lamps become dark due to mud and dirt, and all kinds of stray cats and dogs run around the street.

　　 This is the southwest corner of Longyang County Town. It used to be a cemetery. In recent years, with the expansion of Longyang County Town, it has become a distribution base with various small handicraft workshops.

Walking into the depths of the alley, a small two-story building appeared in the field of vision. Four old ladies were rubbing mahjong in the aisle on the first floor. Nowadays, rubbing mahjong has become the most important recreational activity of modern mankind. , The whole street will be blasted with the sound of mahjong, people can't help but sigh, even if the civilization changes, the sport will not disappear.

Luo Kai said hello to one of the old ladies with a big mole on the corners of their eyebrows, and then struggling to carry the tricycle on his shoulders, accompanied by a series of complaints from these old ladies, and locked the tricycle in the small courtyard. Walked to his room on the second floor.

This two-story building belongs to residents’ self-built houses~lightnovelpub.net~. There are more than 30 rooms in total. Each room is only 40 to 50 square meters. There is no toilet, and of course there is no kitchen. The ceiling and The walls are darkened by oil and smoke, but the residents don't care, because the rooms are cheap, and the rooms here are only more than 100 stars per month.

Of course Luo Kai doesn’t care. It’s much better than the prison in Nangya Island. At least there is a bed and a broken coal stove. A long chimney leads to the outside. The coal stove is a tool for cooking. , It is winter now, and the small coal stove also has the function of heating.

Start a fire to cook, dinner is very simple, simply make a big pot of noodles, sprinkle some vegetables and oil salt, the unflavored green noodles are snorted by his eating, he eats a lot, often just after eating I'm hungry again in an hour, and any food will become delicious when I am hungry.

　　 After eating, he fell asleep deeply. The only advantage of drowsiness is that he is no longer dreaming now.

In the early morning of the next morning, Luo Kai came to a nearby vegetable market and queued up. He came to buy meat. It is strange to say that meat in this world is very expensive. The price of ordinary pork is around eighty star yuan per catty, and It’s limited. You can only buy three catties per person per month. Other beef and mutton are more expensive. The vegetable market has only a small supply every month, and all of them are reserved by some large restaurants.

　　 Of course, if you have money, you can go to the restaurant to consume. Those large restaurants have channels to connect with the farms. As long as you have money, you can eat unlimited amounts.

Luo Kai's current body needs to eat high-energy, high-protein meat to ensure energy. Therefore, the cheaper meat must be purchased every month. If there is no meat, he needs to eat a lot of carbohydrates such as rice and white noodles. To replace protein, it is not easy for him to live in this city.
