Chapter 136 Gotham City has simple folk customs!
After fixing the city's medical system, Xu Mu installed a garbage dump for the citizens.
The construction fee of the garbage dump is 10,000 gold, and the daily maintenance fee is as high as 500 gold/day.
Moreover, this is purely city maintenance expenditure and cannot be profited from.
Many players complained that the bankruptcy of their city started from this garbage station.
But Xu Mu still has a little trick up his sleeve.
He spoke eloquently.
"Taking out garbage is a vital need of citizens, but the maintenance fee is too expensive and the gain outweighs the loss."
"But it won't work if we don't do it. If the city is dirty and messy, it will directly affect the subsequent population occupancy rate."
"So, we can locate the garbage station in the commercial district."
"Although it's a little far for citizens to dump their garbage, it's only separated by two highways. It's just for exercise."
These words once again triggered questions all over the screen.
"???"
"a little?"
"It's okay to have to cross two highways to throw away garbage. It's the speed of life and death, right?"
"King of Hell: Yes, just throw it away like this."
Xu Mu ignored the light screen and continued, "What's more important is that we can drive consumption in the commercial district in this way."
"You think, the citizens have come all the way to the commercial district, and they have to buy something before leaving."
"Then the boss of the business district should be grateful to me."
"People who always owe me favors will definitely feel embarrassed, so I can give them a chance to repay them."
As Xu Mu spoke, he directly raised the tax rate in the commercial district from 0 to 20%.
One move directly confuses the player.
"No, if you do this, it will reduce the happiness of the residential area, right?"
"Furthermore, if taxes in commercial areas increase, happiness will also decrease."
"I feel like it does more harm than good. I don't dare to play like this anyway."
Just when everyone hesitated, thinking that Xu Mu's handling of this incident was not very good.
I saw several messages popping up on Gotham City’s social platforms.
#Our mayor is so great! He actually came up with a good way to put the garbage station in the business district! The traffic volume of my store is 200% higher than before!#
#Even if taxes are increased by 20%, I can earn more than before. Praise the mayor!#
#As long as I can make money, I would rather endure the stench of the garbage station, it doesn’t matter.#
The players were collectively stunned.
Is this... even possible?
And it's not over yet.
Because the garbage station is too far away in the residential area, the happiness index of the group has indeed dropped.
But the business district boss made more money, and his happiness level skyrocketed! From the original emerald green to a deep dark green!
Balancing both sides, Gotham City's overall residents' happiness index remains at a high level of over 90!
This operation completely stunned the players.
"????"
"Wori! This way you won't lose happiness?"
""They still have to thank us"!"
"Absolutely amazing! This idea is so refreshing!"
"What about the buddy who just said he didn't dare to play like this? This is the gap between you and the quasi-god! Study hard, it's all about the details!"
"Guigui, how did Mr. A come up with this? I learned it again! Write it down quickly!"
While a group of players sighed, Xu Mu quietly gained tens of thousands of faith points.
His eyes moved back to the copy of "Skyline".
After the tax rate in the commercial district was raised to 20%, Gotham City finally received its first pot of gold.
In addition to opening up all expenses, you can also earn an extra 2,000 gold a day through taxes.
When you have money, the first thing you should do is to build roads.
In "Skyline", regardless of whether it is a residential area or an industrial or commercial area, houses can only be built along the road.
Only when roads exist can areas be divided.
With additional regional quotas, more people will move in.
Xu Mu renamed the current city center and named it Butterfly District.
The population of Butterfly District has gradually become saturated, and new areas need to be built!
An asphalt road is pulled out above the butterfly area, and then a square closed-loop road is formed on the ground.
Asphalt roads cost 100 gold/unit, which is more expensive to build than conventional dirt roads, and maintenance is also as high as 0.5 gold/day per unit.
But the benefits are also obvious. Having wider roads will reduce the risk of traffic jams and achieve faster road speeds.
Xu Mu's idea is very clear.
I just brought disaster... I just finished helping the commercial area, and now I naturally have to help the veterans in the industrial area.
Let veterans take a more advanced path!
In this way, their large trucks transporting goods can make more trips a day, which indirectly increases logistics tax revenue.
"Everyone, please pay attention, there is another detail here."
Xu Mu prompted her thoughts and enlarged the bird's-eye view, so that players could see a certain building more intuitively, and even pedestrians and vehicles walking on the street.
"When we are building, if there are too many grids, the citizens will use a large area to build a building. They even dare to build a yard for themselves. This is an unforgivable thing. Moreover,
If built like this, the number of people a building can accommodate will not increase."
"So, we can zoom in on Gotham City and accurately plan each unit so that citizens can only build buildings on a single grid."
"In this way, we can breed... sorry, we can settle more citizens."
Players: "???"
"You just said breeding, right?"
"Is it intentional or accidental?"
"God's leaky mouth!"
Ignoring the complaints, Xu Mu demonstrated it again without blushing or heartbeat.
Sure enough, under his precise point-based planning, when the citizens on the factory side built a building, they would only occupy one unit at a time. Although the building was smaller, the number of people it accommodated was proportional to the area occupied.
A large factory building with an area of 10 blocks is the same.
But when you look down from a distance, the dense cluster of small buildings looks a bit strange.
"It's just... like rows of cemeteries." One player couldn't help but say.
"Hey! It's true what you said!"
"What a guy! Just work in the factory until you die, right?"
"I originally thought that I was already evil enough. Compared with Big Brother A, I am really a stinky younger brother..."
After arranging the factory buildings, it is natural to arrange corresponding residential areas.
Otherwise, you can only have a factory without a labor force!
The location of the new residential area was located right above the factory building. Xu Mu then framed a piece of land that was almost the same size as the new factory area, and also planned it with precise placement.
Then, the two new areas were framed and renamed - Kasamoto Industrial Park.
As we all know, people in small countries are very particular about craftsmanship.
Therefore, inviting them to live in Gotham City and become glorious workers will surely give Gotham City a better future.
Of course, if you want to work as a worker, you have to look like a worker. Areas in the city center are high-consumption areas and are not prepared for you Kasamoto communes.
In order to prevent you from going to the commercial street in Butterfly District and spending all the money you finally earned in a month while shopping, I can only reluctantly cut off your connection with the city center and change the road to allow only trucks to pass.
