New Kyoto, one of the top ten cities in the world.
At the beginning of the construction of the city, the city leaders in the real world moved the entire leadership almost completely into the law, relying on a family-like internal identity transparency model to efficiently complete the initial city construction. Then, relying on real-world policies and national-level resource support, a series of means to attract residents were implemented.
The most successful one is the establishment of an identity verification team. As long as the residents of the real Kyoto who enter the law pass the absolutely confidential identity verification, they can not only get free housing and suitable jobs in the new Kyoto in the law, but also in the real world. Can get cash rewards.
This alone makes more than 60% of the people in Kyoto become residents of the new Kyoto in the law. Since then, relying on the system changes bit by bit, people in Kyoto who have not stayed in New Kyoto have felt a lot of inconvenience. They have no choice but to join New Kyoto after authenticating their identities in the law.
Kyoto itself is a world-class city, not only in terms of population, but also a gathering place for high-quality talents. Under laws that are not much different from reality, everything within human reach develops at a terrifying speed. And because it corresponds to the identity of the real world, residents have almost unshakable loyalty.
When many people realized that in a free world of laws, due to identity correspondence, they would have an inescapable shackles, other cities that followed suit never achieved results even close to New Kyoto.
Therefore, New Kyoto has become the only city in the world that ranks among the top ten cities in the world in terms of scale, comprehensive economic strength, standing military strength, and scientific research results, as well as the quality of residents and public security conditions.
The attraction of comprehensive advantages and the limited access to population resources have allowed the whole world to form a common understanding - even if it is not yet the case, sooner or later, New Capital will become the heart city of the entire legal world.
Because he knew that Qiu Yu was a novice in the law, after arriving in New Kyoto through the Kokumon Gate, Yue Shang Duzui kept introducing Qiu Yu to him. However, compared with his busy ears, what made Qiu Yu busier was his eyes.
Originally, he thought that after seeing the virtual city of Kyoto, his concept of the city was quite "urban", but the new Kyoto in front of him made Qiuyu realize once again that imagination will always lag behind the reality of the creation of the universe.
Different from the orderly order of real cities and the exaggerated architectural styles of virtual Kyoto, New Kyoto is different from them, but it has the calmness of reality and the lightness of fantasy at the same time. If I had to use a metaphor, it would be that New Kyoto is a huge theme park. And the theme here is - challenging imagination.
After arriving at New Kyoto through the Sky Gate, Qiuyu's first feeling was that he had arrived in an interstellar metropolis. There are all kinds of wonderful creatures everywhere you look. Even if all the knowledge in the brain is completely wiped out, less than one tenth of the creatures that can be recognized or are close to the image in some understandings.
In the last city, Qiu Yu had already seen many forms of people, so he was somewhat mentally prepared, but in terms of quantity and rarity, New Kyoto was hundreds of times more powerful than the previous city. Just like a person who is used to seeing animals in the zoo will still be shocked when he suddenly comes to the vast African grassland.
In particular, the animals in the zoo are too leisurely. As ornamental objects, they can only be regarded as moving sculptures at best. But the people in New Kyoto may be under pressure from the real world. People of every form are desperately trying to play the role of their bodies. The scene of their respective busyness is strange and full of life.
The cat-eared maid-like girl held up the hotel's signboard and politely greeted the passengers who came out of the sky gate. While talking and laughing, the ears on her head twitched from time to time, proving that she was genuine.
Thirty or forty meters away from the Sky Gate, countless people in the form of beasts were talking about prices with passengers who were looking for a means of transportation.
Some people who looked relatively wealthy or in a hurry walked directly to birds such as thunderbirds, rocs, and phoenixes wearing uniform headdresses. After explaining their destination, they sat directly on the exquisite seats on their backs and took off. Go away.
Further away is a location where vendors are allowed to set up stalls. A fairy selling accessories, a little girl selling matches, a four-armed chef selling famous snacks from Kyoto, and a robot that keeps taking out various vehicles from the storage space to sell...
In addition to all kinds of strange creatures, Qiu Yu was even more amazed by the architecture of New Kyoto. The place where the Yuekong Gate is located is a square with a diameter of fifty meters. It is said that you come out of the Sky Gate, but in fact, after passing through the previous Sky Gate, when you get here, you will appear anywhere in the square. Therefore, although there are many people coming and going, there is no congestion in the area of more than 2,000 square meters.
Outside this empty square, the buildings are tightly packed together as if competing for space. Chinese style, European style, fantasy style, science fiction style, competing to stand tall. In the space of less than one meter between a small wooden building and a Gothic palace, a large tree that is taller than the buildings on both sides grew. On the densely intertwined branches, more than a dozen green vines were built. Exquisite tree house.
Qiu Yu originally thought it would be difficult to adapt to this super mixed style, but after taking a few glances at it, he was surprised to find that these buildings seemed to have been planned by top designers. Whether it is chaotic or crowded, it presents a unique beauty. It's like hundreds of unique flowers are woven into a beautiful and bright flower cluster. No matter how much you enjoy along the way, you will never feel bored at all.
Qiu Yu is truly penniless, and Yueshang is definitely not rich even when drinking alone. Therefore, the two of them could not afford to hire a beast-like character who served as both a vehicle and a guide, nor could they afford the various means of transportation sold by the robots. When traveling around New Kyoto, it’s all about your legs. Of course, to be accurate, it depends on the legs of the moon drinking alone.
After drinking alone on the moon, he completed the introduction to the new Kyoto, and when Qiuyu recovered from the novel scene, more than ten minutes had passed unknowingly. Seeing Yue Shang drinking alone and still walking quickly on the road, Qiu Yu was sure that he was not walking just to give her a good visit. So I suggested that we wait for the visit to New Kyoto later, but for now we should take a bus as quickly as possible to the sky gate that connects the gray and chaotic islands.
But Yueshang drank alone and answered with a wry smile that there were no buses or similar cheap means of transportation in the suburbs. This statement surprised Qiu Yu again for a long time. Because the surrounding prosperity is no more than that in the core streets of big cities, not to mention the suburbs.
Anyway, I had to find something to talk about, so Yueshang Duzui continued to teach Qiu Yu a literacy course.
The urban area of New Kyoto is nearly 5,000 square kilometers, but with these 5,000 square kilometers as the center, many buildings and urban agglomerations radiate around it. Due to the government structure in the law, although these surrounding areas are known as New Kyoto, they are not compulsorily managed by the New Kyoto government. It can also be understood that the value of these surrounding areas is limited and they have not yet invested energy in management. The current main value lies in the existence of over-the-air doors in these places.
The Sky Gate is an existence that cannot be moved once it is established. Although cities can choose appropriate over-the-air door components and establish fixed-point over-the-air doors at any location. However, no city manager dares to charge for the over-the-air gates between cities, so establishing the over-the-air gates is equivalent to a loss-making investment. Moreover, using the over-the-air gate does not consume time at all, so it is enough for a city to have one or several over-the-air gates connected to big cities. If you want to go to other cities, you can first go to the big city as a transit, so among some small cities It is impossible to build a space-traveling gate that does not make much sense.
In contrast, small cities are unwilling to make this investment, and managers of large cities cannot waste the huge business opportunities that exist in their cities as mobile transfer stations. Using various excuses to connect small cities, the Yuekong Gate is placed in the surrounding areas of the city that are in urgent need of development. Not only does it use other people's economy to help its own development, it can also provide more jobs for the residents of its own city. For example, dispatching drivers around Yuekongmen in various small cities, more sales booths, etc.
Unlike the over-the-air gates between cities, the over-the-air gates connected to the negative area are generally located in the center of the city. On the one hand, the top economic circle can be established by relying on these negative area flight gates. On the other hand, it can also facilitate the unified management of dangerous people who like to fight.
In the entire legal world, various organizations are afraid of hostile organizations destroying the space gates, because once the space gates in the city are destroyed, then investing a lot of money to build the city in the negative zone is equivalent to completely cutting off supplies. If the repairs were a little slower, the entire city might be completely destroyed.
Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the Eukongmen, the Eukongmen as the entrance will generally choose a city like New Kyoto that has strong popularity and a powerful background. Over time, these big cities that have gradually monopolized negative area traffic have become the makers of traffic laws. People who want to enter the negative zone map are just like the previous netizens who knew that the network fees were unreasonably high, but they could only adapt to the network operator's rules and pay the money obediently.
To put it simply, Qiu Yu and the two are now in the process of obediently paying money. Under normal circumstances, if you have to travel more than ten kilometers to get to the empty gate of the negative area in the center of the city, you have to spend money to buy or hire transportation. If the two of them could really come up with the money, they would definitely not choose to walk.
