Just let the Kasamoto workers eat, drink and have sex directly in the industrial park.

What?

cage?

Don't talk nonsense! We still have to be conscientious as human beings.

As a mayor, you have to pay attention to keeping a bowl of water balanced!

Now that everyone has settled in Gotham City, they all have the opportunity to obtain a Gotham City household registration!

The people in the Kasamoto Industrial Zone are naturally human, and as long as they are human, they will yearn for life in a big city.

Therefore, residents of Kasamoto Industrial Zone who want to buy a house in the city center only need to pay 300% of the original house price.

With roughly the savings of three generations, one can secure a Gotham City household registration without any deception.

After setting up all this, Xu Mu raised the tax rate of the industrial park to 30%.

"Will anyone really move in like this..." the players watching the game asked in confusion.

"The increase in population depends on the happiness of the overall residents." Xu Mu answered simply.

Just because a city is glamorous, it doesn't mean it doesn't have a poor side. There must be some rebels.

Soon, with the establishment of the new park, Gotham City's population once again experienced a wave of explosive growth.

Taxes have also soared from the original 2,000 gold/day to nearly 5,000 gold/day.

The financial situation has gone from being extremely poor to being relatively wealthy now, with a working capital of 50,000 yuan.

Xu Mu followed the trend and established a primary school in Butterfly District.

The happiness index of the surrounding residents has increased again!

A relative balance has been achieved with the low happiness index of Kasamoto Industrial Zone.

The famous scientist Einstein once said in the book "The Theory of Relativity": You increase the degree of happiness and I decrease the degree of happiness, which is equivalent to the total degree of happiness remaining unchanged.

Immediately, Xu Mu called up the hundred-fold time lapse built into the copy.

Not long after, there was a crisp 'ding' sound.

Gotham City successfully reached level 2 and was upgraded into a wealthy village with a population of 2,000!

At the same time, banks, fire stations and police stations are also unlocked.

Here comes another difficulty.

According to the law of "Skyline", whatever it has, it will lack.

After upgrading to a level 2 city, the bank fire station and police station must be built.

If it is not repaired, the happiness index will drop. Once the index drops, the number of people willing to move in will decrease, and a large number of residents will even run away from home.

The construction and maintenance costs of these three are not ordinary expensive!

The bank is the most affordable among the three, only requiring 10,000 gold.

But the fire department and police department have huge expenses.

Construction requires 20,000 gold per building.

Maintenance is as high as 5,000 gold/day

After all, after having a fire station, the houses of unruly people will always catch fire for no reason, and the houses will be burglarized for no reason.

On average, one alarm call costs 500 gold in maintenance fees.

In this village of 2,000 people, there are at least 10 fires and crimes every day. It can be described as a Gotham City with simple folk customs.

"Damn! The progress has finally reached me! I went bankrupt at this stage before!" Some players said angrily.

"Fuck! Me too! A bunch of unscrupulous people eat so much every day that they have nothing to do. They just don't go home and hang out on the road in the middle of the night. They just hang out! After being robbed, their happiness index starts to drop, and I feel numb!"

"Fires are outrageous. Either a wife catches fire while cooking, or a naughty child catches fire while playing with firecrackers. My city is living in dire straits every day."

"I guess Boss A is up to his tricks again! He probably won't build a fire station or police station."

"But if it is not built, the citizens will directly lose their happiness... These unruly people are too damn difficult to serve!"

"Just wait for Boss A to come up with a plan!"

Just when all the players were looking forward to Xu Mu's next operation.

Xu Mu finally took action.

Of course the fire station and the police station need to be built.

Just like what the players said, if you don't build it, it will be regarded as the city's imperfect facilities. Let's go straight to Waterloo where the happiness value is!

There is a very scary hidden chain reaction in "Skylines".

Suppose that the government's finances are unable to rebuild a city.

Once more than 30% of the population is lost, the city will be involved in the death and bankruptcy effect.

The logic is this.

When your city reaches a certain scale, your public facilities and buildings are fixed daily expenses. Even if the city is emptied, these fixed expenses of yours will still exist.

But your population has been lost, your output value has dropped, and your tax revenue will drop.

Once tax revenue falls, the government will become poorer and will be unable to maintain its original fixed expenditures.

As a result, the happiness of the remaining citizens will continue to decline.

Then the rhythm of the death and bankruptcy effect entered.

The remaining citizens will move out after their happiness value drops to a certain level → → the city’s fiscal revenue will further decrease → → unable to maintain more equipment → → citizens will move away again.

The larger the city, the greater the fixed expenditure, and the less it can withstand the impact of death and bankruptcy.

In reality, every country has central financial support. Even if a region goes bankrupt, the country can still help save it.

But in "Skylines", the city built by each player is an independent entity, and there is no possibility for the country to help.

Once involved in the death and bankruptcy effect, it is equivalent to sending it directly.

Unless your city coffers can afford to completely rebuild the city, or continue to be tax-free until the population returns to its original level.

Therefore, every time a city is upgraded, it is like a cultivator going through a tribulation, facing a dangerous impact caused by the need to improve city services.

The current high expenditures for the police and fire departments are likely to be the last straw for Gotham City.

Copy in progress.

I saw that Xu Mu didn't talk nonsense, but directly dragged the dungeon interface and pulled the perspective to the suburbs of Gotham City, a towering mountain.

Then, under the curious gaze of everyone.

Two buildings were placed on the top of the mountain.

One building is the police station and the other is the fire station.

As soon as this act was carried out, it immediately aroused the doubts of countless players watching the game, and fierce discussions instantly broke out!

"ha?"

"Why are the police station and fire station here?"

"This place is thousands of miles away from the Butterfly District in the center of Gotham City. Boss A, did you put it in the wrong place due to shaking hands?"

"Putting it here doesn't seem to increase the happiness value of citizens. I've tried it before! It can only be increased if it is placed in areas where citizens frequently move. And the denser the citizens, the higher the happiness value will be."

"Then what's going on?"

"I'm preaching, every operation of God A is beyond my expectation..."

At this moment.

"Look, the next step is the key to breaking the situation." Xu Mu said softly.

The lively light screen suddenly fell silent.

All the players stared at Xu Mu's actions in the dungeon with their eyes wide open, for fear of missing any detail.

I want to see how he will resolve the new round of financial crisis.

Progress this month: 25/50
Chapter completed!
