Chapter Summary
People who have bought houses certainly do not want their houses to depreciate, but people who have not bought houses certainly hope that this matter can be realized. This will definitely have a big impact on those who buy houses, so what Liu Ning needs to do now is to assure everyone that after the city is expanded, it will not have any impact on the original entertainment industry.

Actually, the idea of expanding a city has been proposed before, but most of them have failed to achieve it. The main reason is that they did not consider the various difficulties involved. Now, for Liu Ning, all the difficulties can be solved. The only thing that cannot be solved is the opinion of the city's residents. People who have bought houses certainly do not want their houses to depreciate, but people who have not bought houses certainly hope that this matter can be realized.
For established homeowners in the city, how could they be willing to accept such a large plot of land suddenly appearing? They would definitely be thinking of doing something else, such as using the money in other ways. Moreover, the city is not overcrowded; it's just that the lower classes have nowhere to live. Clearly, everyone is only thinking about their own interests. What Liu Ning wants to do is to bring a little more balance to the whole society.
This will definitely have a big impact on those who buy houses, so what Liu Ning needs to do now is to assure everyone that after the city is expanded, it will not have any impact on the original entertainment industry. The expanded city will be used to build industrial zones. In other words, the outer perimeter of the city will be entirely industrial zones, while other areas will remain the same. The city itself did not have industrial zones to begin with.
All industrial products are purchased from other places. If the industrial zone produces a large quantity of goods, then these goods will not need to be purchased from other cities. This is a good thing for the industrial zone, and it can also save a lot of money for the city every year. This money can be used for its own benefit. Although a city cannot be self-sufficient, at least the current situation is acceptable. At least it does not need to buy things from other places.
Moreover, when the city is surrounded by trees, it is a good city for us. If we don't have any construction capabilities, no one knows what the final result will be. What if ferocious beasts come to kill us? That would be a very helpless situation. If that really happens, it would not be a good thing for everyone. It is precisely because of this that when these things happen, many people also think about having someone to rely on.
After listening to Liu Ning's introduction, many people present nodded in agreement. As long as it didn't affect the decline of the houses and the surrounding area was developed into an industrial zone, it would be a very good idea. Of course, some people also raised a suggestion: could the existing city walls be preserved and the entire city be divided into an inner city and an outer city? Liu Ning understood what these people were thinking. The original residents lived outside the inner city, and they were definitely new residents who wanted to create a hierarchy. Regarding their idea...
Liu Ning would definitely not agree. What he was pursuing was relative equality. Of course, absolute equality for everyone is impossible, but relative equality is achievable. If an inner and outer city were created, how would he face the common people in the future? This would artificially divide people into several classes. We can't control social phenomena, but this situation can be avoided. Therefore, in the current situation, Liu Ning is very clear about how to do this.
Moreover, some things on the existing city wall can be moved outside, which can save a lot of money on the construction of the outer city wall. Liu Ning is no longer the naive young man he used to be, and he would never take on the entire development plan casually. If he were to take on all of it himself, the money would definitely be a major issue. In addition, he doesn't have enough manpower, and he can't let private individuals participate too much in public affairs. This is not a good thing for Liu Ning.
Liu Ning understood this beforehand, so in the current situation, he will definitely make a clear distinction between these matters. As for the final outcome, that's beyond our control. It depends on how you vote. If you do well, it will be a good thing for everyone. But if you don't do well, that's your own problem. I've laid the road in front of you; it's up to you how you handle it. We'd better not interfere in each other's affairs.
A hearing was held throughout the city, including members of the Human Council. Liu Ning explained his views, stating that the primary responsibility was to increase the city's defenses. Of course, the existing layout would not change. All industrial zones would be located on newly added land, and the newly added land would not see a large influx of people. Numerous single dormitories would be added next to the industrial zones for them, but if these people wanted to buy houses in the city...
This will likely raise housing prices in the city, which would be a good thing for the entire city. However, Liu Ning will definitely allocate an area to build residential areas. But because these residential areas are near the city walls, they certainly cannot compare with the residential areas inside the city. However, the residential areas near the city walls also have their own advantages, namely, the prices are slightly lower, and everything is being rebuilt.
It's much better than some of the old neighborhoods in the city. There will be plenty of public restrooms here, and there will be absolutely no problem with public security. It will also attract a group of people who can't afford to buy houses. Houses in the city are now 21,000 yuan per square meter. Even some of the more dilapidated neighborhoods are around 18,000 yuan per square meter. In the industrial zone, Liu Ning listed a price of about 10,000 yuan per square meter, which is almost half the price of before.
So if someone is interested in buying a house but doesn't have enough money, they can do so in a neighborhood outside the city. At this time, Liu Ning introduced something even more crucial: mortgage loans. This was perfectly normal before the cataclysm, but it's not so normal now, because after the cataclysm, nobody knows what the city will become.
A loan today might be broken tomorrow, so no one dares to put their money out for lending. If it really breaks down, it means you have nothing left. So no bank will do that kind of business. All loans must be secured. It's like going back to the primitive society. After Liu Ning's news came out, people from all walks of life really got excited.
