Chapter 501: Chapter 82: Volume 3 Poster, Prototype of the Economic System!

Cheng Ye smiled, already seeing the refugee reaction in Wang Kang.

"Once you’re in this system, you’ll slowly be tied here and become a part of Dapo Town."

"Moreover, unless other Satellite Cities adopt my system from the start, they will never be able to successfully implement this residential hierarchy system like I did."

The poster only shows the tip of the iceberg of the entire economic system.

When it comes to actual implementation, it must be adjusted at any time according to the needs and ideas of the residents.

But just with this, Cheng Ye had full confidence in attracting those families dreaming of a better life in Happiness City, bringing them to Dapo Town, and settling them down for stable growth.

Of course, if you encounter those disrespectful elders who want to slack off, take advantage, and occupy welfare...

Would Inspector Cheng go easy on them?

No need for him to personally intervene; just setting up a couple of examples will establish opposition, and those families willing to work hard and create a future with their hands will help him clear out these pests, maintaining a "clean" environment.

"The Wasteland is still better; there are not so many concerns about respecting the old and cherishing the young, just the most basic value exchange."

"Otherwise, to make this system work, relying solely on the support from Happiness City is far from enough."

Cheng Ye mused silently, then explained briefly while pointing to the independent single rooms.

The benefits of a single room are better than family rooms, as they include everything family rooms do, plus two free skill training classes per month.

These classes are charged for residents of other living environments.

As long as one passes the assessment in the training class, they can directly get a stable job.

The wage structure is also aligned with this system:

There is a gradient in housing subsidies; workers choosing family rooms have their base salary increased by 5% each month, while those choosing single rooms have a 10% increase, but the subsidy is issued in the form of a "housing voucher" (non-cashable, for consumption only), ensuring that additional income flows back into housing-related expenses.

For family room residents, there are "parent-child packages" and "household goods bundles" designed as bundled, targeted consumption packages.

The package prices are even cheaper than a 10% discount, but can only be exchanged using the family points earned through diligent work.

Unfortunately, there is no way to work on meals and beverages; otherwise, this system could be optimized further.

But even so, once you’re in this system, you’ll find that opting for paid housing not only improves your quality of life but can also reduce actual costs through welfare biasing, point deduction, and rights bundling, and even turn into long-term benefits.

And Dapo Town is based on the closed loop of "residential fees→wage subsidies→targeted consumption→funds recycling," quickly stimulating consumption, recovering funds, and feeding back into the system, allowing the economic cycle to keep spinning sustainably.

"So complicated, Brother Cheng, did you design all of this by yourself?"

Wang Kang stared at the poster on the ground, his eyes filled with both realization and shock.

This well-rounded cycle was hard enough for him to comprehend, and he couldn’t figure out how Cheng Ye untangled it all.

"Of course, what did you think I was doing all this time, resting?"

Cheng Ye laughed and then added, "Few people understand the allure of economics, and even fewer ponder the complexities of social systems. In some people’s eyes, as long as they have enough muscle, they can turn everyone into machines, operating according to their imaginings, even if the means are unreasonable and inhumane, just to create an idealized utopia."

"But from now on, you need to remember that knowledge is your true weapon, and your ideas and philosophies are the foundation for achieving your goals. As for force, it’s there to protect you, allowing you to go through this process steadily without disruption from the fools I just mentioned."

Two very meaningful paragraphs that Wang Kang didn’t fully understand.

But it didn’t stop him from immediately taking out his pocket notebook, writing down every word without missing a beat, and marking the time and current scene specially at the end.

"By the way, besides engineering diagrams and living environments, there is also something even more significant."

As Cheng Ye spoke, he pulled out the third roll of posters, which he just finished rushing yesterday.

It’s all about the future job positions, requirements, and salaries in Dapo Town, somewhat akin to detailed listings on modern recruitment software, listing all job-related information clearly.

However, it’s because it’s unclear how many resources the inspection station will allocate, so the data is all estimated.

If recruitment goes smoothly, this roll of posters would not be presented.

But if there’s intense competition right at the beginning of the practical assessment for recruitment, then the poster would be the trump card.

Just like choosing Dapo Town initially, completing this crucial first step ensures an advantageous position in the subsequent assessments.

Otherwise, one wrong step leads to subsequent mistakes, losing the initial advantage, and needing luck to catch up.

From eight thirty in the morning till eleven thirty, Wang Kang was intensely pondering.

It wasn’t just about understanding the content on the poster but also about immersing himself into the entire system, finding its flaws and problems.

Fortunately, Cheng Ye was right beside him, and any doubts were immediately clarified, each explanation giving him a refreshing sense of enlightenment.

"If there were an intuitive display showing Wang Kang’s domestic attributes now, it should be rising significantly..."

Cheng Ye mused secretly while leaning back in his deck chair.

After being busy for over ten days, he’s now entirely at leisure at the end.

Come to think of it, no wonder the previous body lacked martial arts talent; it was indeed because the Inner City’s education environment essentially taught people like modern students.

There were no elementary or high schools here, only one school, but it had a nine-year education system.

Within the educational system, besides the first three years teaching basic language and mathematics like modern times...

For the next six years, they directly entered specialization, covering music, painting, machinery, electricity, research... everything.

What can ten-year-old kids understand; they’re all pushed to study.

But even if it’s just spoon-feeding, it can cultivate the most basic logical thinking, aligning with civilization.

This foundational logic, along with the safely assured Inner City, over time, led to an increasing unfamiliarity with martial arts combat, and makes the various body functions deteriorate gradually.

However, speaking of which, this modern education system also enables Wang Kang to understand complex theories now.

If it were Brother B, Cheng Ye might talk until his mouth dried up, yet Liu Bi could only nod without grasping the concept, ultimately getting a superficial understanding to execute without comprehending the fundamental construction logic.

Beep.

The alarm clock rang promptly at twelve o’clock, and Wang Kang quickly raised his head, still somewhat absent-minded, evidently not entirely detaching from the intense thoughts.

"No rush." Cheng Ye stood up and stretched his neck, "For this model to truly operate, it’ll take at least ten days and half a month, plenty of time for you to slowly ponder."

He took out six packs of Nutrient Paste from his backpack, heated them, and they simply resolved their lunch.

When he opened the door, Long was already waiting at the door with several people.

"Have you prepared everything?"

"Ready, sir." Long nodded, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over the posters on the wall inside the house, his pupils slightly shaking.

"Well, that’s good." Cheng Ye stepped aside, "Go in and collect all the posters, be careful to roll them up properly and load them onto the vehicle, and only take them out upon receiving my call."

"Understood!"
