Chapter 438 Mermaid Online (19)
"Come on, what are you all doing here?"
"No, brother, we are all flower growers, can you please give me a hand?"
"I'm afraid of being struck by lightning. This is a matter of principle, even if you are soldiers."
"Show me a clear path, how can I become a citizen of Pingtai?"
"This is very simple. You can marry someone from here. You can choose between a mermaid or a person with special abilities. However, most people with special abilities live on Pingtai Island and outside, while most mermaids live in the underwater city."
“But there aren’t that many people on this island?”
The man did not answer them, but made a gesture of invitation. Wang Yuke felt it would be boring to leave without knowing why.
"Comrade, our submarine was attacked by a shark. You are also a flower grower. Can you help repair it?"
The man hesitated for a while before saying, "You guys come out first, I'll treat you to a meal."
"No, is it necessary to have these in this central office area?"
Looking towards the office area, Wang Yuke and others left. When they got outside, those people just glanced at them and continued with their work and entertainment.
"father!"
"Please take me out to play. I'm already eight years old."
"Hey, you're so good!"
Seeing the man holding up the mermaid baby with pink scales on its eyes, and three others together, a woman came over. Wang Yuke and the others guessed that the other person was a mermaid.
"After this flood season, we will take the children for testing and let them go out into the world."
"Wife, you've worked hard."
Dozens of people sat down and occupied more than half of the seats in the restaurant. The boss went to the kitchen to call the chefs, some of whom were robots. Wang Yuke and others looked around like Liu Laolao visiting the Grand View Garden.
"Are you from Pingtai?"
"My sister is. She is a nurse here. Her name is Hua Rong."
"So it's Sister Rong. It's different here than outside. It's more relaxed overall. There are fewer people working, but the salary is high."
"Comrade, can you give us some work? We are strong and can even sweep the floor."
"We are now recruiting cleaners to clean Pingtai Island, but the cleaning mermaids can finish the job in half a day, and the usual maintenance is done by a few humans."
Wang Yuke: ...Didn’t you say that there were not enough people?
"Let's not talk about that. Let's have seafood hotpot. Don't be polite. Just treat it as your own home. This place is vast and sparsely populated, and rich in resources. You must have never eaten these dishes. If you have eaten them, you will be lucky."
Looking at those hot pot dishes, Wang Yuke picked them up and found that they were indeed different from the vegetables they had outside.
"Brother, did you plant this?"
"They were trained by the leaders of the Federation. Let me tell you, there are all kinds of people with special abilities here. Don't offend them. Mermaids can practice cultivation and have a lifespan of about 200 years."
"Brother, your wife is a mermaid, but you..."
"That won't affect me. As long as I stay here for a few more years and eat the food here, I can be 150 years old without any problems. I can eat vegetables."
After asking around, Wang Yuke and his friends knew that this was an alternative world with a population of about 30,000. The mermaids had many children, five or six at a time, and the offspring of their union with humans were either mermaids or people with special abilities.
Half of the mermaids live in the underwater city and Heita, and the rest have gone to the human world to develop.
However, there are barriers to entering the human world. One must learn the language, understand human habits, be able to write, etc. Therefore, it is not easy for them to find mermaids or people with special powers in the human world.
After the meal, Wang Yuke and his friends were reminded: "People without registered permanent residence in this place will suffer a lot of physical discomfort if they stay there for too long. If you reveal this place outside, you will be punished."
"Who made this thing? It's so advanced."
"It was set up by Gu Yuxi, the law enforcer at the checkpoint. If humans can coexist peacefully with us, no accidents will happen. I encountered this situation last time. I went to Dongzhong for a trip, and the villains in the human world wanted to rob us. In the end, I suffered retribution and am now paralyzed in bed."
Wang Yuke: "What if Pingtai citizens break the law in the outside world?"
"Yeah, there can't be anyone out there fighting and killing people, right?"
"If we have any information about the dead or if we harm the safety and interests of Pingtai and the outside world, we will lose our asylum and will not be protected in the future. The judiciary in Pingtai will not protect us."
"I didn't expect Gu Yuxi and his group to consider so much."
"The happiness index of Pingtai citizens is very high, and the salary level is also high, with an average of 20,000 yuan per month."
"Brother, can you take me with you? I'll do odd jobs for you. Ten thousand yuan a month is enough."
The man shook his head and refused: "No, the free passage is over there. There are two in total. You can go now. I have said everything I need to say."
"Dude, what's it like to be with a mermaid, as a couple..."
The dirty words came out, and the man holding the bag did not answer, but his face was slightly red, and he said to himself: "Don't say these words, mermaids are introverted, don't blame me for not reminding you if you get beaten up by a group of people."
Seeing his compatriots leave, the man shook his head and asked in confusion: "What does this mean?"
"You rascal, my face is red, I must like you, otherwise there wouldn't be so many little brats."
The man took the pearls he had saved at home to the purchasing market. Wang Yuke saw the pearls being measured for size and quality, and finally the price appeared on the screen.
"The total is five thousand eight hundred and six, name and phone number."
"Check if the information is correct and click confirm."
"Comrade, I'll transfer it to my account in the human world, the Meihai District Branch of the Bo City Bank."
"The conversion rate this month is 1:1.5, a total of 8,709 yuan, with a handling fee of 2 yuan. Take a look for yourself."
"All correct."
After entering the password, the bill is printed out and the customer service representative asks: "Do you have any other services? Are you satisfied with the service this time? Please rate us."
"Gone."
The man with the money returned home, while Wang Yuke and others, who had no purpose, watched the outside world.
The man who invited them to dinner came out again, holding the child, and the family of seven walked towards the beach.
They touched the stone and a barrier appeared. After they went in, the door disappeared.
"Look, that guy disappeared after he went in. I also want to see what the underwater city looks like."
Someone pushed Hua Biao's arm and suggested: "Biaozi, sell your looks and find a mermaid or a person with special abilities."
"I'm afraid I'll die. Those people are breathing fire and doing mind control. Besides, I have a family."
Everyone looked at the alien in front of them, and someone complained: "If I stay here, I can make a fortune by selling pearls."
"Let's go!"
"Where to go? It's not like there's no one here. I'll go over there and see what these people are learning."
Walking outside the training room, there were some little kids learning human writing, with the most language being flower planting.
