Chapter 489 Qing City Rules
The group stopped at a wide intersection because the road ahead was blocked by a group of uniformed soldiers.
"What I'm about to say concerns your future living and residence in Gyeongsang City, so please listen carefully."
If you have any questions, you can ask them during the Q&A session after the event.
The staff member surnamed Lin glanced at everyone, making sure they were all listening.
Xu Xiaoyan moved forward two steps to a position where she could hear more clearly, and Lan Yue followed her.
"First, the people who entered Qing City this time have been uniformly assigned to the Eighth District after consultation between the command center and the Qing City government."
When the words "District 8" came out of the loudspeaker, a murmur arose from the crowd.
"The residential area of District 8 is located in the East District of Gyeongsang City, in buildings numbered 507 to 698," said the staff member surnamed Lin, pointing in the direction behind him.
"These buildings are all frame structures that have survived earthquakes and thunderstorms, and have undergone professional safety assessments, so they are safe to live in."
"Second," the staff member surnamed Lin raised his voice slightly, "the housing policy is as follows: the first month is free, and from the second month onwards, rent will be charged according to the housing specifications."
"There are currently three types of housing available," said a staff member surnamed Lin, gesturing for everyone to remain quiet.
"Single rooms of 20 square meters; double rooms of 40 square meters; family suites of 65 square meters with two bedrooms, suitable for families of three or four."
"All rooms are equipped with basic furniture, including a bed, table, chair, locker, and a separate bathroom."
Water and electricity are supplied by the municipal government and charged monthly based on actual usage, with the charging standard consistent with other districts.
"Third, Qing City implements a real-name electronic currency transaction system. Simply put, everyone has a unique and bound real-name electronic account."
All income, expenses, and transactions are conducted through this account, entirely electronically, without the need for cash.
As she said this, she gestured with her hand as if she were swiping a card, her finger tracing the side of the megaphone.
"The official fee is one-thousandth of every transaction, which will be used for system maintenance and city management."
"Fourth" Regarding the redemption of the points that everyone accumulated in the bunker.
The crowd fell silent instantly, because this was the most important thing to everyone at the moment.
"After consultation between the command center and the Gyeongsang City government, the points will be exchanged for Gyeongsang electronic currency at a ratio of 1 to 7."
When this number was announced over the loudspeaker, many people in the crowd asked if the percentage was high and how long it would cover rent.
No one knew what the prices were like here, and everyone was filled with anxiety.
"Since our staff has just arrived, data entry and information verification will take time. The specific amount of electronic currency will be available for inquiry tomorrow. Please be patient and don't rush."
Everyone's points are recorded and will not be lost or missed, so please rest assured.
When she uttered her last sentence through the loudspeaker, her tone was gentler than any of her previous words.
She herself had survived the apocalypse and knew exactly what "points" meant to these people.
"When exactly can we check the amount tomorrow?" someone shouted from the crowd. The voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the temporary silence.
It was the voice of a middle-aged man, filled with barely suppressed anxiety.
"It's still uncertain, and we'll let you know the exact time later," the staff member surnamed Lin replied quickly, as if he had expected this question to arise.
Her tone remained unchanged, and she showed no impatience at being interrupted.
"How do I check? Where do I check?" a young woman asked, with a hint of curiosity.
"At that time, everyone can check at the trading center in Zone 8. If you encounter any difficulties during the operation, it will be convenient to ask the staff for help."
The staff member surnamed Lin and the man next to him holding a folder exchanged a few words in hushed tones.
The man stood next to her the whole time, holding a black folder in his hand. He was barely noticeable, but he was making notes.
She whispered a few words in the man's ear, her lips moving very little, her voice so low that even Xu Xiaoyan, who was standing nearby, couldn't hear her.
Then the man nodded and wrote a few words on the folder.
At this point, the staff member surnamed Lin raised the megaphone again and announced, "Everyone will be assigned to the designated building according to their team. The specific room allocation plan will be the responsibility of each team leader."
All eyes turned to Captain Gu at the same moment, who was standing on the edge, holding a walkie-talkie, as if he had just received an order.
"Team 12, follow me," he said, then turned and walked straight down the uphill street.
The buildings on both sides grew taller and taller, from five or six stories to seven or eight stories, and from seven or eight stories to more than ten stories.
More heads popped out of the windows of those buildings, their eyes following the group.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, Captain Gu stopped in front of two eighteen-story buildings.
He looked up and saw dark blue iron signs hanging at the two entrances of the building. The door number on the left was 612, and the door number on the right was 613.
This is where they will live from now on—a real house with a roof, walls, windows, and doors.
Team Leader Gu turned around and addressed the team, saying, "Each floor has two different types of apartments."
His voice was a little louder than usual because he knew that some people in the back of the line wouldn't be able to hear him.
「末尾编号为1和2的是家庭套房，末尾编号为3和4的是双人间，末尾编号为5和6的是单人房」。
He pointed to the two buildings and said, "You can choose any room you like. Once you've chosen, remember to register with the building manager to confirm your selection."
The phrase "free choice" immediately sparked a brief murmur among the crowd.
In the dungeon, they only have the right to "draw lots," and they live wherever they are drawn; they have no right to choose at all.
No one expected that people in Qing City could choose their own housing; it was truly astonishing!
Captain Gu paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping across each face.
Then he did the only thing he had done in the past month that was outside his job description: "Take care of yourself from now on, goodbye everyone."
After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back.
Everyone stood there, stunned, watching him disappear around the corner.
Xu Xiaoyan took a deep breath, turned around, and walked into the door of Building 612, with Lan Yue following closely behind.
The hall is not large, only about forty or fifty square meters, and the floor is covered with gray and white tiles.
Although some of the tiles had cracks, they were cleaned very thoroughly, and you could even vaguely see the water stains left on the tile surface after it had been repeatedly wiped with a mop.
