After selling the equipment, Lu Li sent a message to ask about Weilan Haifeng's progress. After receiving a positive reply, he logged off and went to sleep.
The next day was the weekend. Lu Li got up early in the morning and had a simple breakfast with his sister. Then they left home to look for an apartment.
From a sociological point of view, since the emergence of private ownership, mankind had inevitably become polarized. No matter how advanced technology was, this would not change. In fact, it would only become more and more intense.
In the 23rd century, not only did the gap between the rich and the poor not disappear, but there were also three types of places, the slums, the commoners, and the rich. Although the official files didn't have such a division, it was the reality.
The slums were where the unemployed lived. They barely survived on government aid and had no right to education or medical care. The reason why the Lu siblings had such a hard time was that Lu Li had given his sister the opportunity to go to school. He hoped that one day she could find a good job and marry into the slums or even the rich.
The Slums were the working class, or the low-income class. Most of them did not pay any taxes, but because they could create social value, they had certain civil rights, and their living conditions were much better than the slums.
In the early stages of Dawnlight, most of the players were rich or at least commoners. As for the poor, they could only apply for jobs in the suicide squad or as gold collectors.
As for the rich district, the smallest group of people controlled almost all the wealth of society, so naturally they could enjoy more power.
Lu Li now had more than 30,000 dollars in his account. Buying a house was out of the question, not even in the Commoner District, but renting a house was definitely not a problem.
They were now looking for a house in a civilian area. It had to be safe, there had to be a school nearby, and it would be best if the cost of living was low …
"Brother, look, there are policemen patrolling here in broad daylight," Lu Xin pointed out to Lu Li in surprise.
The younger sister of the Lu family was a little beauty. She was born beautiful and had never felt safe since she was young. Fortunately, her brother was very good at fighting, so she could grow up safely in the slums.
"Because it's close to the slums, the security is stricter here," Lu Li explained. It was a really hurtful answer. The patrolmen, whom Lu Xin felt very close to, were actually guarding against the people from the slums.
"Brother, if we find a house to live in here, will we still be poor?" The little girl's face was full of hope.
"Xinxin, we're poor not because we live in the slums, but because we don't have money. Once we have money, we won't be poor anymore." Lu Li swore in his heart that he would never let his sister feel inferior because of her identity.
"That's right. Brother, you're so awesome. You've earned so much money in just two days." Brother was always the best. A certain brother complex's eyes were full of little stars.
"Xin Xin, let's not look for a house here anymore," A certain sis-con was overwhelmed with emotions after being praised. For a moment, he did not know where he was and said valiantly, "Let's go to the wealthy district!"
"Brother, really?!" Lu Xin was happy for a second, but she began to hesitate again. "But brother, do we have enough money? And we have to plan for the future. What if … what if one day we can't earn money anymore? What should we do?"
The little girl's worry was normal and understandable.
However, she did not know that a brother complex was most afraid of being questioned by his sister. What? Brother can't earn money in the future? That's completely impossible!
However, the more Lu Li thought about it, the more he felt that moving to the rich area was not bad. The living conditions there were too good. The slums looked like a dilapidated place that was waiting to be demolished two hundred years ago. The commoners' area was only at the level of the suburbs. The rich area was truly worthy of the two hundred years of technological development.
On the hover car, the Lu siblings set off directly to the rich area.
The rich area was very large, but there were not many people. Other than a few specific areas, there were no obvious high-rise buildings. The residential area was full of green trees, and there were even rare plants that had gone extinct two hundred years ago.
The DNA of plants and animals that had been preserved for two hundred years had gradually been successfully recovered by humans. Many suitable ones were raised in the villas of the rich area.
"You want to rent a house here?" Most of the receptionists came from the commoners' area, so they did not have the habit of looking down on others. They only said with a little embarrassment, "According to the government's regulations, if you want to live here, you must have a security fee of one million in your account."
"One million?" Lu Li was immediately discouraged.
"Brother, forget it," Lu Xin pulled on Lu Li's arm and said softly.
"Actually, you can go to the university town," the receptionist reminded them.
"Right." Lu Li suddenly understood. If you wanted a good living environment, you didn't necessarily have to go to the rich area.
When the university town was chosen, there was a huge uproar.
It was more than one hundred and seventy years ago. At that time, the government spent a lot of money to build the university town, planning to put all the universities in the city together.
Originally, they wanted to choose the rich area. After all, who didn't want to build a school in front of their home? The council members were all from the rich area.
No one thought that the commoners and the poor, who had always endured humiliation, would have such a big reaction. There was no one in the factories, no one in the schools, water and electricity were cut off, transportation was cut off, and even the army was in chaos. Several council members were assassinated by their subordinates.
With no other choice, someone proposed to build the university town at the border between the commoners and the rich area.
Although the controversy was still there, the chaos finally calmed down. The university town became a buffer between the commoners and the rich area. There was both space for commoners to live in and decent living conditions.
When the Lu siblings arrived, it was already eleven in the morning. Lu Li planned to go directly to the Star Moon Union's villa area. He had been there before, so he was more familiar with the area.
This was a garden villa area. In front of it were four office buildings, and behind it was the residential area.
Lu Li held Lu Xin's hand, bypassing the real estate agent's sign, and directly passed through the office building into the residential area.
"Brother, I heard that the real estate agent is a place to recommend houses. Why don't we ask them for help?" Lu Xin turned her head, trying to look back at the real estate agent.
"Silly girl, the real estate agents are all scammers. They will rent the worst houses to you, and the rest will be better rented out next time. If you meet a worse real estate agent, they will even work together with the landlord to cheat you. So, if you can avoid looking for an real estate agent, don't look for one." Lu Li acted like a parent, imparting his life philosophy to his innocent little sister.
Lu Xin didn't have the slightest doubt, and immediately looked at the real estate agent's eyes full of vigilance.
"Then how do we know which houses will be rented here?"
"There are two ways. Look online, or look at the neighborhood's bulletin board." In his previous life, Lu Li also moved out of the slums with his sister. However, they lived in the commoners' area, and their living conditions weren't very good. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been unable to treat his sister's illness in time due to lack of money.
"Then should we look online?"
"Most of the pictures on the Internet are fake. If you don't want to see the real thing, let's go to the bulletin board first." For hundreds of years, people's habits had not changed. There was an empty space next to the electronic bulletin board for people to post things.
There were second-hand virtual reality helmets, clinics to treat chronic diseases, and of course, there were also people who wanted to rent a house.
The siblings huddled together, discussing which of these pasted messages was most suitable. Just as they were about to choose one to make a call, they heard someone say impatiently behind them: "Have you guys seen enough? Can you move aside and let me post something?"
