"As we all know, the security situation at Kaya City is not very good,"

The host looked at the manuscript in his hand,

"When our dear Mayor Jeno was elected, he vowed to reduce the crime rate in Kaya City, but what is the result now?

I went out that day and walked three kilometers. I met five Homeless Man who wanted to rob me. I took a one hundred Federal Coins bill and asked them to divide it among themselves. Guess what happened? They tore the one hundred dollars into five pieces and each took one piece away. "

There was canned laughter in the studio.

This paragraph contains two backgrounds.

First, Kaya City and Homeless Man banknotes are usually only snatched by twenty Federal Coins. Twenty Federal Coins has a low denomination and is the most widely circulated. It has the most holders among the banknotes in circulation, so it is easier to rob. Twenty Federal Coins is not many. The person who is robbed wants to spend money to ward off disasters, so it is not easy to call the police.

Second, the Homeless Man who robbed are generally not very educated, and the host used the exaggerated joke of "physically dividing money" to mock them as "stupid".

However, in Federation, where electronic payment is highly developed, very few people use cash, and electronic money is easy to track, so now Homeless Man usually grabs some more valuable but not so expensive clothes or accessories.

"These moneyless and stupid Homeless Man have become the biggest danger to our city. They are greedy and despicable. They don't even know a few capital letters. They are hiding in every corner of the city, threatening our lives and livelihoods. However, our mayor has his head under the table, only his fat ass is exposed, and there is nothing he can do about it..."

The host in the studio is still telling jokes and narrating.

He Ao did not laugh when he heard these jokes, but looked at Danny next to him, "How many Homeless Mans do Kaya City have now?"

"I haven't counted it yet, but there may be hundreds of thousands, close to one million."

Danny answered slowly.

The entire population of Kaya City is only about 16 million.

"Kaya City What is the approximate housing area per capita now?"

He Ao asked immediately.

"There is currently no city-wide data," Danny shook his head. "The group has probably developed 40% of the city's residential and apartment buildings. By analogy, if we do round-up calculations, the per capita housing area is between 40 and 45 square meters."

Kaya City's single apartment is about 35 square meters. The actual figure is even lower because there are many couples or couples crowded into a single apartment, while a two-bedroom apartment that can accommodate three people is about 60 to 70 square meters.

With a housing area of 40 per capita, theoretically everyone can have a house to live in, but there are still so many people homeless.

This means that a large number of houses are occupied by wealthier people, or are simply vacant.

"How is the occupancy rate of the rental apartments under the group?"

He Ao thought for a while and continued to ask.

Rental apartments refer to apartment buildings specifically used for rent. In Federation, these apartment buildings are generally developed by large consortiums and most of the time are not sold to the outside world and are only used for rent.

"About 5% to 7% are vacant,"

Danny replied softly, he almost opened his mouth to talk about these data,

"This number is very reasonable, because if we further lower the rent to attract tenants, the number of tenants that will increase with the price reduction will not be very large, and the price reduction will cause our fixed cost ratio to increase. In order to maintain profits, we have to cut service and marketing costs, and cutting these soft costs will lead to a decrease in the number of our tenants, and ultimately a decrease in overall profits."

Old Butler paused, "Now this price has been calculated by computer and is the price that can achieve the maximum profit in our current environment. Vacant houses cannot be reduced in price alone, which will cause the original tenants to become dissatisfied and even check out and rent a reduced-price house to 'take advantage'. In practice, the current method is the most profitable method."

Maximum profit.

He Ao did not delve further into this question, but immediately asked, "Those Homeless Man lost their jobs, and the group is now unable to hire more workers?"

"The market has been sluggish recently," Old Butler nodded lightly, "Our products can't be sold, and other companies' products can't be sold either. The products are backlogged in the warehouse and there is no need for production for the time being, so everyone has a plan to lay off some employees."

"After these employees lost their jobs, they still had to repay consumer loans and housing loans. They were unable to find new jobs and had to declare bankruptcy, so the bank repossessed their homes, causing them to become Homeless Man?"

He Ao thought for a moment and said softly.

"Yes."

Danny nodded slightly.

He Ao fell into a brief silence.

Danny didn't say anything either, and the sun shone on their cheeks.

Kaya City is Kaya City of Nolanka Group. As the controlling shareholder of Nolanka Group, Vian is, in a sense, the true king of this city.

What constitutes his throne is a huge interest group that, together with Nolanka Group, forms the internal and external structure of Nolanka Group.

"Danny, go and see how many people in Group Board of Directors are willing to sell their shares,"

He Ao looked at the huge GG screen below and said slowly.

"Okay, Master Vian."

Old Butler nodded slowly and was about to leave the office

He Ao suddenly stopped him, "Replace all the managers of Nolanka Orphanage."

"Okay."

Old Butler stopped, nodded slowly, and then walked out of the office.

Only He Ao was left in the entire empty office, staring at the huge GG screen in the distance.

The screen itself actually has no sound, but Old Butler just connected to the live broadcast from the office computer and the sound is playing.

At this moment, the host has finished his joke. He looks at the camera and says,

"I believe everyone is as curious as me about why there are so many criminals in Kaya City, why the crime rate is so high, and why we encounter seven or eight robbers when we go out to buy a pack of cigarettes. I believe everyone is tired of hearing the mayor's spiel,"

He paused and then said, "So we invited a special 'guest' today, a big bad guy who believes in God of Chaos. He said that he does all kinds of evil. Today, we will look at the problem of Kaya City's high crime rate from his perspective."

I have to say that although inviting God of Chaos was a bad move, this program actually did a good job in terms of attracting attention.

He Ao raised Bracelet and took a look at the comments of the show. Many people thought that this show was a deliberate show, asking people to pretend to be Follower of the God of Chaos to attract attention.

But no matter what, the purpose of attracting traffic for this program has been achieved, and the number of people watching the live broadcast is still rising sharply.

With the exotic theme and the high-priced GG seats, even though many people felt that this was a deliberate show, they couldn't help but click on the live broadcast to see what happened.

He Ao stared at the huge screen, and he was also curious about what kind of "Follower of the God of Chaos" the other party would invite.

The screen flickered and the scene changed, but it was not in the studio, but on an empty street.

White clouds float in the sky.

A man holding a bunch of balloons stands in the center of the frame.

He handed a balloon in his hand to Little Girl, and then seemed to notice the camera. He slowly walked towards the camera with the balloon in his hand.

Balloons built up one after another covered his cheeks, making his appearance unclear.

When the balloon was about to hit the camera, he slowly took it away.

A huge Laughing Fat Baby Mask instantly filled half of the screen, and a terrifying sense of depression came from the screen.

There is an opening in the mouth part of this mask. Under this opening, a closed man's mouth and a small half of his cheek can be faintly seen.

The cheek near the mouth seemed to have been cut. Starting from the corner of the mouth, there were two terrible scars that continued to the ears.

The figure behind the mask seemed to realize that everyone was looking at the scars on his mouth at this moment. The two scars suddenly twitched, pulling apart like two earthworms.

Snow-white teeth and bright red gums were slowly revealed, and in the gaps between the gums, there were strips of bright red flesh.

He showed a "smile".

The hoarse voice echoed throughout the space,

"Good morning, cuties."
