Chapter 398: Xinfu City
A modified chip was injected into Xia Xiaoman's body and he successfully passed the monitor's inspection. Under the arrangement of the staff, he took Maodan into the underground city.
On the way into the underground city, Xia Xiaoman passed by the place where she had stayed during the extreme cold. The rooms on that floor were filled with various machines that she had never seen before.
The guide who led Xia Xiaoman and the other survivors into the underground city explained, "This is the production area, which specializes in manufacturing various daily necessities needed by humans. Each machine produces different items."
"If you are interested, you can pay attention to the office's recruitment information after you settle down. Maybe you will have the opportunity to work in the production area."
Entering the internal elevator, the commentator clicked on a small screen next to the elevator, which showed the layout of the dungeon.
The commentator looked at Xia Xiaoman and the others with a smile on his face. "Our underground city is named Xinfu City, which means a floating city that is passed down from generation to generation. You are the flame that our floating city protects."
"The first floor of Xinfu City is above the ground. The first floor is the monitoring area, which is mainly used to monitor the surrounding conditions of Xinfu City and observe and record climate changes in the outside world."
"Above the ground? Is it the slope above the entrance to the dungeon?" someone asked.
The guide smiled and nodded, "Yes, we have completely hollowed out the mountain below the slope, and the first floor is less than 10 meters away from the surface of the slope."
Someone asked with concern: "It's so shallow? Will it be smashed by a meteorite?"
The narrator smiled and said, "Don't worry, every part of Xinfu City has been carefully designed. Although the first floor is very close to the surface of the slope, the meteorite will not hit Xinfu City."
"The soil on the surface of the slope is soft. When the meteorite hits, the soft soil can form a good wrapping, which can alleviate the impact of the meteorite. The remaining impact force is unlikely to penetrate Xinfu City."
"Even if the meteorite really penetrates the first floor of Xinfu, it will not affect the floors below the second floor. In case of an emergency, the first floor can be separated from the entire Xinfu City."
After hearing this, Xia Xiaoman and the others felt much more relieved.
The guide continued, "The third floor is the planting and breeding areas. People with planting and breeding experience can go to the office to register their information after settling down. Once the planting and breeding areas are open, they will recruit a large number of workers."
"The next is the living area. There are five floors in total, and floors 4 to 8 are all living areas. Each floor is equipped with various necessary facilities such as hospitals, schools, supermarkets, community management, offices, police stations, endangered animal science museums, libraries, etc."
“But the living environment on each floor is different.”
The narrator swiped the screen and introduced one by one: "The accommodation environment on the fourth floor is a relatively dense dormitory building, which is 5 stories high. There are 8 rooms on each floor, equipped with public bathrooms and toilets. The height of each floor is 2.2 meters, and each room is 15 square meters. The layout is unified as one bedroom and one living room."
"Although the living environment is relatively dense, the rent is cheap, only 50 points a month. I personally suggest that you live on the fourth floor first, and then consider moving to other floors after you understand the prices and conditions of Xinfu City."
Xia Xiaoman asked: "What is the living environment like in other areas?"
The narrator smiled and slid the screen to the next page. "The living environment on the fifth floor is suitable for family living. It is also a five-story building with a public bathroom and toilet. But the room has three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen. Four families can live on one floor."
"The sixth floor is also a five-story building. Three families can live on one floor. Each apartment is 60 square meters, with three bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a small balcony."
Someone lamented: "Three bedrooms in 60 square meters? How small must the room be!"
The narrator smiled and said, "The room is a little small. It can only accommodate a small bed of 1.2 meters. If you want to expand the room, you can remove the partition and connect the two rooms."
"Except for the main frame, the other walls of the houses built in the underground city are made of new barrier panels, which are light and easy to disassemble, and can also prevent fire and noise. If you want to dismantle it, you can just unscrew the fixing screws and it will be removed, which is very convenient."
After explaining the building materials of the house, the guide continued to explain the next floor. "The seventh floor is also a building, but there are only two suites on the first floor. Each suite has an area of 80 square meters and comes with a free 6-square-meter balcony. The eighth floor has one unit per floor, with four bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms, which is suitable for large families."
A brightly dressed man asked, "Aren't there any stand-alone small buildings?"
The narrator shook his head. "The space in the underground city is limited, so it is impossible to build a stand-alone small building. Maybe the third underground city built by the floating city will have a stand-alone small building, but we won't have it here."
The narrator scrolled down the screen and continued, "The ninth floor is the headquarters of the military and government, and a place for soldiers to train and rest. The tenth floor is the core forbidden area that maintains the normal operation of the dungeon."
Xia Xiaoman was curious when she heard this: "I heard that the underground city in the capital only has 9 floors, how come we have built 10 floors here?"
The narrator smiled and said, "Actually, we also have nine floors, and the monitoring area on the first floor is an additional one we built."
"The total area of the monitoring area is less than one-third of the other layers, but because it is at the top of the dungeon, we call it the first layer, and the other layers are arranged in order."
"I have explained the general situation of Xinfu City. If you have no questions, you can choose the floor you want to go to. I will take you to the stairs of the floor."
Hearing this, Xia Xiaoman turned around and looked at Li Yu'e, "Sister Yu'e, which floor are you going to?"
Li Yu'e said without hesitation: "The sixth floor, the house on the sixth floor has a bathroom."
There is no kitchen on the fourth floor, and the residents are densely packed. If there is any movement in the house, the whole building will know about it, and the privacy is too poor. There is no toilet or shower room in the room on the fifth floor, which is not convenient for women to use the public bathroom outside.
There are men and women in a building. Who knows if they will encounter perverts when taking a shower or going to the toilet?
The layout of the room on the sixth floor was just right, and it also had a small balcony, which was convenient for drying clothes. Forget about the last two floors, as they sounded like places where rich people lived, and she didn't have that many points to waste at the moment. She would consider moving to the other two floors when she was more stable.
Xia Xiaoman really wants to move to the eighth floor. Living on an entire floor by herself would make it more convenient for her to do everything.
But the issue of the nanochip has not been resolved yet, so she went to live on the eighth floor alone, and it was not convenient for her to find Li Yu'e and the others.
After some consideration, Xia Xiaoman also decided to live on the sixth floor and try to live in the same building with Li Yu'e and the others, so that they could take care of each other if anything happened.
