Overturned Tower

Vol 2 Chapter 51: Competitors (thanks to the leader of L_Y Order Feed~)

Seeing the barber's serious expression, Malt Wine pushed his glasses instead, revealing a gentle smile that didn't match that intellectual and delicate face.

Malt's upper body leaned forward, and if the godfather hadn't huddled in the armchair, this action would even allow them to smell each other's breath.

She made a sweet voice: "Dad~"

Although the pronunciation is similar, the barber can clearly hear that what the other party calls is not "Godfather".

He calmly stared at the other party's lake green pupils.

"That's why you, alone, were called to be strangled."

The godfather said slowly.

When Hang Sha heard his name, he turned around and listened carefully.

"Strangling this man is very simple. He is from the heart, intending to create an order for the uncoded in the lower city; he has a desire to control power itself, and at the same time is my friend and guide. Hearing that I will be crowned on the throne, It must be after a little regret, I feel sincerely happy... right."

When the godfather said this, he exchanged a glance with Hangsha to confirm the other party's thoughts.

Hang Kill nodded without hesitation: "That's right."

"So you've been lied to."

The godfather simply replied.

Hearing this, Hang Sha frowned, and turned to look at the malt wine.

He wasn't a smart guy in the first place.

Otherwise, with already possessing overwhelming authority and force... he wouldn't even be able to rule the little white lion group perfectly.

But Hang Hang is still a suspicious person, he can't trust people without codes other than mages. He only believes in the stance that comes with status.

Originally, for the advancement of the White Lion Group, he could only use his brain and forcefully think.

Not so after the barber arrives...

After getting acquainted with the godfather, he gradually got used to the life of giving up thinking.

"You're still confusing my question."

The godfather stared at the malt wine: "What I am asking is not 'Why do we form a political power to control the Lower City', but 'What impact will the Lower City form a political power'.

"You're right. Even if I don't, someone will. I believe Tovatus will try to organize a big alliance, and secondly, those who have not removed the chip from the upper city will form an alliance . may even compete with us for living space.

"The essence of this matter is that a small stable circle suddenly attracted many people. The number of them is about the same as the total number of the previous circle, but they are restless, panic, and noisy. They are for 'peace of mind' , it becomes aggressive, it tries to invade Aboriginal territory..."

Just like the originally gentle green grasshopper, when the population density is too high and food is scarce, it will also become a very aggressive yellow "locust".

"Then what I said is wrong?"

Ale shrank back to his seat: "If we can't bring out a speaker before they arrive in the downtown area, we may even usher in a civil war after they enter the downtown area."

But when the barber heard the words, he just looked at her deeply and directly, and even looked at the malt wine with a little trepidation in his heart.

"-I see."

He said softly: "I understand. This is your purpose."

"... what is it?"

Malt laughed, but the barber knew she was hiding her uneasiness: "I don't even know what I'm worried about..."

"—'Worried'. That's what you said."

The man replied: "You are 'worrying'."

His clear and melodious voice, as if he could sing a song at any time, is now enough to shock people just by uttering a single word.

"You see the future. It's inevitable that uptown is going to be chaotic, and it's inevitable that they'll be going downtown. That's certainly not bad.

"At the end of the day, it's because Tianen Group doesn't intend to solve what they're facing...and more importantly, they don't care."

The godfather knocked on the armrest of the chair: "You also know that the number of uncoded people in Happy Island is the largest, and it also occupies the largest area.

"But why? Is it because we are strong? Is it because we are united? Is it because the company is afraid of us?"

He asked each sentence, although he sat motionless in the chair, his momentum was so compelling.

As for the answer, in fact, even strangulation is known.

"The answer is simple, because the company doesn't care. In other words, we uncoded people are being used by the company.

"The real problem is ... we survive not because we're strong and there are a lot of people. It's because the company doesn't care.

"Recognize the reality! Those who will enter the downtown area are originally a group of losers, people who have been eliminated by the fast-paced life in the downtown area.

"Whether they voluntarily entered the downtown area or were driven in because they had nowhere to go, the downtown area has played a role in containing garbage. And what if those people who have chips also choose to come to the downtown area to escape life for a period of time?

"What will the company's attitude be?"

Without waiting for the malt wine to answer, the godfather replied on his own: "The answer is that the company will be very happy."

"…why?"

Hang Hang couldn't help asking: "Why is the company happy when the number of people in our downtown area has increased?"

"Although as far as you are concerned, the life in the upper city and the lower city will be much different. Without a chip, there will be no digital currency, no shopping, and no way to walk in the upper city in a fair manner. Just being seen by the executive department will be attacked, Arrest, deportation.

"But in fact, for the height of the company...you live in the upper city and the lower city, in fact, the difference is not big."

The barber sighed.

He's actually not that smart, otherwise he wouldn't have to imitate others to survive.

It's just that he has read a lot of books and learned a lot in another world. At most, it means being able to feel the emotions and psychology of others, and vaguely touching the essence of the other person's personality. Other than that, they are all ordinary people.

But in this world where even knowledge and history are controlled, it is possible to become a wise man because of this...

He sorted out his emotions and continued to explain for Strangling: "Because the fundamental problem is that the company actually only needs a very small number of people to produce labor results.

"In fact, most of the labor is meaningless. They are all labor for the survival and life of more people... Then, what if there are not so many 'people' as the market?

"But because of the automatic factory in the lower city, the most basic necessities of life can already be met. And the Tianen Group is a monopoly group whose main business is culture and entertainment... In this case, how many companies must exist in the upper city? How many people are they unable to lose?

"Ale is right in the first half. Unrest is bound to happen, sooner or later.

"It's different from what those people think... They think that their entry into the downtown area is the most straightforward and radical revenge on the company. But for the company, these people voluntarily entering the downtown area is a solution for both sides.

"'Garbage' went into the trash can by itself, which reduced the management cost of the upper city; and when the situation eased, they would climb out again, enter the market environment and resume payment behavior excitedly.

"—That's so sweet."

"They think they're getting revenge on the company, they're fleeing uptown, but that's exactly what the company likes to see," Barber quipped.

"And because the company is happy to see it — it's the future that's going to happen. Don't reverse the order."

"...That is to say," Hang Hang finally understood what the barber meant, "are those people driven out by the company in essence?"

"So you should also know what it means to unify the lower city at this time."

The godfather chuckled: "If we say that criminals and those without codes are 'permanent' garbage. Those 'temporary residents who don't even plan to remove their chips~www.wuxiahere.com~ are 'temporary garbage'. Smooth, they will still go back...

"Tianen Group doesn't need their labor. The positions offered to these people are meaningless, so it doesn't matter if they are missing-the real 'relevant' have been poached when they have just left or even before leaving up.

"However, the market needs them to pay. And if there is a 'real regime' in the lower city, it means one thing.

"That is, we are competing with the company for 'payers'. From this perspective, we have become a 'competitor' of Tianen Group."

"...but we're not even a company."

"That doesn't matter. Because in essence, we are competing with them for the 'market'."

From an irrelevant "garbage dump" to a "competitor" vying for the market.

"What does that mean, I don't need to say more."

The godfather sneered.
