Chapter 691 Great Changes in the Original World 45

"Boss, where are you going? Do you want me to go with you?"

Wu Xian thought for a moment and said, "It's not safe to leave her alone at home. You stay and protect her!"

"Tsk, it's just him. I'm good enough to protect him. If he wants to leave, just leave quickly, so that I don't get annoyed by him. He keeps talking about his sister Xiaoli all day long. It's so annoying!"

Li Anni complained on the side.

Huang Chuan scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Wu Xian patted Huang Chuan on the shoulder and whispered in his ear: "Don't worry, I think they are moving to the Jiangnan base, and we will find it sooner or later!"

"Forget it, since she dislikes you, just come with me!" Wu Xian said loudly with a deliberate smile.

Huang Chuan seemed to understand Wu Xian's meaning and responded with a smile. Then the two of them left the villa.

The nanny Xiao Liu, who had been observing from the second floor, hid in the kitchen after observing this situation. She took out a small communication device from a hidden place and said into the microphone: "Gardener, gardener, the target person has left the villa, please pay attention!"

"Gardener received!"

A young man who had been weeding in the courtyard of the villa immediately stood up and greeted the person next to him after receiving the message. Then a gardener dressed in the same way came over and started to take over the debris in the courtyard.

As he left the villa from the back door, he reported the situation, and soon the microphone transmitted the news that the target was heading to the main urban area.

At this time, the gardener had changed into normal clothes, and drove an ordinary car and followed the taxi that Wu Xian and Huang Chuan were riding in to the main urban area.

Wu Xian had previously asked Chen Wanrou about the consumption situation and travel needs of the Jiangnan base. When he received the special forces uniform, he also got a new ID card issued by the base. This card contains 100 yuan of inherent funds given to base members when they register a new identity.

When Wu Xian saw this card, he remembered what Chen Wanrou had done at the subway station, so he also wanted to take this card to the city to see what he could buy.

After walking a short distance, I saw a sightseeing bus circling the Xixi Wetland, which provides convenient transportation for people living in the Xixi Wetland.

After Wu Xian left Xixi Wetland on the sightseeing bus, he hailed a taxi outside the core base. Now the Jiangnan base is similar to before, with similar online car-hailing services providing personal transportation convenience.

It’s just that they have been reorganized by the base, and their system has been integrated into the base’s citizen system. Wu Xian naturally didn’t know about this. It was the driver who told him while chatting with him along the way. The driver also said that they are now semi-organized members, which is much better than driving online ride-hailing cars before.

"Although the income is not as high as before, which can reach more than 10,000 yuan a month, the money in the base is very valuable now. Ten yuan is enough for you to eat for a day."

Wu Xian and Huang Chuan sat in the car, occasionally asking a few questions, and soon they found out the general situation of the Jiangnan Security Base.

After joining the Jiangnan Security Base, ordinary survivors will have their old ID cards recycled and new ones reissued. Currency will then be distributed based on the value of the items they carry. Of course, they can also choose not to exchange money and bring their items into the base.

Except for some dangerous items, the base allows you to bring in most things directly, such as food, gold and silver jewelry, clothes and bags, etc.

However, the first thing that made these survivors regret was that they did not exchange their valuables for the base's common currency when entering the Jiangnan base, because the cash they carried with them could not be used directly in the base, and the original cash-to-base currency exchange ratio was 100:1, which means that one hundred yuan in cash can only be exchanged for one yuan of common currency in the base.

When you first enter the base, the exchange rate at the entrance is 100:1.5, which can be said to be very high.

Those who had fled here with large amounts of cash in Chinese currency were all crying in despair. After all, the money they had was worthless. One hundred Chinese currency could only buy a piece of ordinary bread in the base, and they could not even afford a meal.

It is precisely because of the new monetary policy that these government bases can operate normally. After all, materials are scarce. If the purchasing power of the Chinese currency is still used to exchange materials, anyone with a little ability can use their assets to monopolize the materials in the base.

In order to avoid this situation, the base directly froze all book funds. The book funds will be directly converted into the new base common currency, and the conversion ratio will be calculated based on the book funds, deducting the tax rate to be paid, and so on.

Some millionaires and billionaires have basically been driven back into the civilian camp. After entering the base, the common currency they get is only 10,000 or 20,000. The more capital you originally have, the lower the conversion ratio will be.

The maximum amount converted within one million is 10,000 common currencies, while the maximum amount converted for an amount exceeding one million or 10 million is 20,000 common currencies.

One hundred million is thirty thousand common currencies, one billion is forty thousand common currencies, ten billion is fifty thousand common currencies, and there is no higher amount. The upper limit of the exchange of old Chinese currency is fifty thousand.

That is to say, even if you are a wealthy person in the old world, as long as you join a base under the government, your original assets will be almost wiped out.

In fact, this policy affects most ordinary survivors, because even if it is converted into 10,000 yuan of common currency, they can live steadily in the base for at least two or three years without working according to normal people's standards.

In addition to the 100 base universal currencies issued on the card, ordinary survivors can only find a job to get paid, and the pay for most jobs ranges from 100 to 200 yuan.

The normal daily expenditure of a family of three in the base is about 15 yuan, and if they save a little, it can be controlled at around 10 yuan. In other words, ordinary survivors are still at the bottom of the society in the base, and can only ensure food and clothing and occasional consumption expenses, and cannot save much money.

The corresponding system also reflects how high the salaries of special forces members are. The average monthly salary of a special forces member is between one thousand and two thousand yuan in the base's common currency, while the salary of a special forces captain is around five thousand yuan.

Distributed based on monthly contribution and ranking.

It is precisely because of the high salaries of special forces members that ordinary survivors in the base are so yearning to become special forces members.

The reason why Wu Xian knew all this was because he was wearing a custom-made special forces uniform with the special forces logo on it. During the more than ten-minute journey, the driver talked nonstop.
