The job seekers nearby saw the recruiter being killed and stared at Bai Liu in a daze. When Bai Liu glanced at them, they instantly retreated into a vacuum circle in fear, buried their heads in their knees and trembled as if they had seen nothing.

Others fearfully said, "We won't tell anyone. Even if the patrol comes, we won't say anything! Don't kill us!"

"I won't kill you." Bai Liu knelt down on one knee. He smiled and looked at the job seeker. He held out his hand. In his palm was the blood-stained property certificate. "Do you want to live in the house I just stole?"

The job seeker was startled and stuttered back, "Are you going to rent a house to me? It's illegal to rent a house to someone else in Sunshine City. I can't live here..."

"No." Bai Liu's smile deepened. "I'm giving you guys a place to stay for free. Are you afraid of living in a haunted house?"

The man was a little confused. He shook his head in a daze and repeated Bai Liu's words in a low voice: "You want to give me... a house in Area A for free?"

Bai Liu answered affirmatively: "Yes."

The job seekers next to them all widened their eyes and whispered:

“Is it illegal to live in a house given by someone else for free?”

“…If there is no lease relationship, it doesn’t seem to be illegal.”

"Oh my god, the house in Area A! I've always dreamed of living there once in my life..."

"Am I dreaming that a murderer has taken over someone else's house and is living in it with us?"

Suddenly, the job seekers who had originally retreated far away because they were afraid of the blood-soaked Bai Liu gathered around quietly again. Their bloodshot eyes looked at Bai Liu eagerly and cautiously. Some of them couldn't help but remind him:

"There are so many of us here, and you only have one haunted house. Do you want to choose who will live in it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, these people who had been tortured by years of job hunting subconsciously straightened their chests so that Bai Liu could clearly see their resumes on their chests. Some people even began to talk about their advantages in a low voice:

"A house with evil spirits can only be controlled by someone with strong yang energy, right? My horoscope is very good."

"My horoscope is better!"

Seeing that it was about to roll up again, Tang Erda, who was standing next to him, looked at the group of people with helplessness and mixed emotions: "Stop first."

"There's no need to fight for houses." Bai Liu stood up and looked at everyone with a smile, "We will have five buildings in the future, and everyone can get a free house."

The people below were silent for a moment, and then they couldn't help but burst into a discussion:

"Five buildings?!"

Soon someone started to worry: "Are you going to continue killing people and stealing houses? The patrol team here is very fierce. Last time I saw them enforcing the law at the job market, they beat to death a backpacker who had lived here for more than ten hours because he couldn't pay the fine for long-term occupation of public land."

Tang Erda's brows wrinkled quickly: "That's against the law. Won't the patrol team be punished?"

The man was confused: "Why are they being punished? They are hired by real estate developers and the rules here protect them."

Tang Erda's brows furrowed more and more tightly: "Can't your laws here punish the patrol team that commits crimes?"

"Originally it was possible." The man tried to recall, "but last year the opposition rate exceeded 50%, so it was cancelled. They said the patrol team had the right to directly deal with people they felt were a threat to Sunshine City's public security, so as to protect all residents of Sunshine City."

"Why was the vote canceled?" Tang Erda asked further, "This seriously damages your rights and interests. Why did it get more than 50% of the votes against it?"

The man became more and more confused. Just as he was about to speak, Bai Liu next to him answered slowly: "Because they don't have the right to vote."

"It's obvious that you have to own a house to be considered a formal resident here. They don't have one, so they are the lower-class citizens mentioned earlier. Lower-class citizens cannot enjoy any rights here."

Bai Liu looked at Tang Erda with a half-smile: "Captain Tang, not all laws are made for the benefit of the majority of the group."

"In some places, like here, the law is made for the benefit of the group that owns the majority of the interests."

"I chose to break the rules from the beginning, not because I wanted to kill people, but because I knew that it would be impossible to achieve the main mission set by the game according to the rules they set, because these rules were created to protect their interests and exploit others."

"Captain Tang, don't worry too much that I will do this in real life. The laws in real life protect the legal rights of ordinary laymen like me. There is no need for me to violate them."

Tang Erda breathed a sigh of relief without making a sound.

The simulation level of this copy was too high. Bai Liu killed someone right at the start, which made him nervous and wary of whether this person would bring this style of behavior into reality.

Bai Liu patted Tang Erda on the shoulder and smiled: "Relax, Captain Tang, this is just a game."

"You can't live in this haunted house for now. We still need to deal with it." Bai Liu turned to look at the job seekers, "I will come back here to find you after we deal with it. Do you know how to transfer the real estate certificate qualifications here?"

Someone looked at the dead recruiter lying on the ground and said hesitantly, "For someone who died suddenly like this, it's not easy for you to transfer the property rights. The house will be taken back by the real estate company, so you have to find a loophole."

"Yes." Someone beside him nodded in agreement. "Go to the [Suicide Property Auction Center], where you can transfer it. Before the patrol team comes to register his death, use his ID card to get an accidental death transfer certificate, and that should be enough."

"Suicide Real Estate Auction Center?" Bai Liu raised an eyebrow. "What is this place?"

The man was surprised: "Don't you know? This is where the murder house was auctioned after the owner committed suicide."

"The suicide rate in Sunshine City is particularly high. Many house slaves jump off buildings after they can't pay their mortgages. This is because they still have a large portion of loans owed to real estate developers that have not been repaid. The houses will be taken back by real estate developers and auctioned off to mortgage the loans."

"Yes, that kind of haunted house is very cheap, but I can't afford it even if it's cheaper..."

"It is said that those haunted houses are really haunted, and the owners of the houses behind them have died one after another after moving in. But many people still buy them because they are cheap..."

Suicide property auction center.

Two people covered their heads with sunscreen and hid in the crowded crowd stealthily. They put their heads together and whispered:

"You think Bai Liu and the others won't notice us doing this?"

"That shouldn't happen. The Sunshine City in this dungeon map is so huge, with a population of tens of millions. We must be unlucky to run into them..."

"If you're really worried, I'll use a mist skill to cover it first?"

"No! We can do this to other teams, but they are very strong, and they have two popular players who have won the death-free gold medal. Your mist skill CD takes more than a day, and my skill CD takes 17 hours. Save them for the critical moment."

As they were talking, one of them couldn't help but sighed: "Yuan Guang, how unlucky are we to encounter such a person in a competition..."

Yuan Guang held the sunscreen and carefully looked around, feeling scared: "To be honest with you, now that I've seen the people in this instance, I don't realize how unlucky we are."

Speaking of this, Shi Qian and Yuan Guang shuddered at the same time, saying in unison: "The housing prices here are terrible."

"In reality, I earn 7,000 to 8,000 yuan a month, and the price of a house is 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. I still have some hope of buying a house here..."

Yuan Guang shook his head with a pale face: "I can't think of any other way to buy a house except robbery."

Shi Qian nodded heavily in agreement. She raised the sack hanging on her hand and said, "We just snatched 18 recruiters. They are very rich. The balance on their ID cards is 60 million. I think it's no problem to buy a dozen small-sized haunted houses."

Yuan Guangsong breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes lit up again: "At this rate, we might be able to buy five haunted houses in seven days!"

"If Bai Liu and the others also use this method, then we can use our skills to slow down their transaction speed, and then we can win!"

Shi Qian also laughed: "It should be possible."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they thought of this. Shi Qian looked up at the auction table and couldn't help but sigh: "The average house price is 320,000 yuan per square meter, the average salary is 4,500 yuan, and there is also a land use fee. This is fucking outrageous! How can people live!"

The people around heard Shi Qian's sigh and echoed: "Isn't it that we can only live in the haunted house?"

"Haunted house..." Shi Qian and Yuan Guang looked at each other. They knew that this was a ghost story. If there was a ghost in the haunted house, it was most likely real. "Isn't it supposed to be for the dead to live in? Why do so many people bid for it to live here?"

"If you don't live in a haunted house and live outside, won't people get killed?" The man put his hands in his pockets and said in a tone that he was used to it. "The patrol team kills people every day. Ghosts may scare me to death, but it may not be as easy as the patrol team killing me."

As a veteran house slave, Shi Qian couldn't help but ask: "How did you drive up the house prices to this level? This is outrageous."

"Speculation?" The man looked at Shi Qian in confusion, "What is the speculation price?"

Shi Qian was stunned: "That's right, a bunch of people buy a lot of the same thing, hoard it and don't sell it, and then drive the price of this thing up higher and higher, making it unaffordable for others, just like speculating in stocks..."

The man suddenly realized: "This is what stir-fry means."

Then he shook his head: "The house prices here are not inflated. The prices of most of the properties here are agreed upon by the five major real estate companies."

It was Shi Qian's turn to be stunned: "It's settled?! What does this mean?"

The man held up his hands and said, "It's whatever they say the house price is today."

Yuan Guang was also stunned: "Just what they said?!"

The man nodded and said, "Yes, all the land in Sunshine City belongs to them. We can only buy houses from them, so they can only pay us whatever they say."

the other side.

Mu Sicheng, who heard the same news, raised his voice: "They said the price was whatever it was?! They said 320,000 per square meter and you bought it?"

The person who answered Mu Sicheng's question about buying the haunted house was frightened by Mu Sicheng's violent reaction. He shrank his head, nodded, and then quickly slipped away.

"Damn it!" Mu Sicheng jumped up in anxiety, "I haven't finished asking questions yet! Why are you running away?"

Tang Erda pressed Mu Sicheng's shoulder and said, "Calm down."

Mu Sicheng clenched his fists, his teeth itching with hatred: "What a bunch of shit companies! And these people! They bought it just because they set the price at 320,000 per square meter! Are they stupid?"

Mu Ke said calmly: "They have to buy it."

"320,000 per square meter, must I buy it?!" Mu Sicheng turned his head sharply, "On what basis?"

Bai Liu said slowly, "Because all the land is in their hands."

"For example, if all the rice is supplied by one person, you can only buy rice from this person."

Bai Liu looked at Mu Sicheng and said, "If he is willing to sell it for one yuan a pound today, you have to buy it. If he sells it for five hundred yuan a pound tomorrow, you still have to buy it, because if you don't buy rice, you will starve to death, just like if you don't have a house in Sunshine City, you will not be able to find a job, you will not be able to get medical treatment, you will not be able to go to school, and you may even be beaten to death."

"Rice, like houses, is a basic need for you. It is a necessity. When necessities are monopolized, they can set the price at will. They set the price at a level that you can barely survive on but can squeeze you to work to the limit. Whether the price is 320,000, 420,000 or 500,000 per square meter, for you——"

"——If you want to live, you must pay this price for your own survival."
