Chapter 142 The Citizens Are Excited.

You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

A sudden announcement informing the citizens to suddenly prepare to move was bound to create a bit of panic. Not because the people were frightened but because of excitement. Everyone would be in a rush to get the best house, the closest house to a hospital, the road of the supermarket. Some would want to be close to the school. No matter where one preferred to live, there would be scuffles, arguments and a lot of shoving as if they were entering a market place. Scarlet had seen such behavior in the Blue mart.

To elude this, she went live on BSTV and addressed the citizens personally. The communications department sent out a message to all the citizens that had bracelet terminals or phones, asking them to tune in to BSTV immediately for an important announcement. All department heads asked their workers to stop working and watch the governor.

"On many terminals and some televisions, Scarlet's face appeared, "Citizens of the Blue star as we draw closer to the cold season many of you have approached city hall, myself or the general and other representatives with many questions about housing and security. I am here today to address one of your concerns, the housing situation. It is with great pleasure that I announce to you all that we are officially moving to the Blue city starting today. Now I know that this is bound to cause excitement and rashness but I am requesting you all to be calm. I have been assured that there are enough apartments for every adult citizen on our planet. Even if the apartments are not enough other arrangements have been made to provide accommodation for everyone.

As we move I am going to request you all to be orderly, talk to the office of housing and find out the costs of the various apartments. You can also visit the local bank and find out what kind of mortgages are being offered. Those that can afford to make full payments you can also do so in the Blue Bell bank which is now open for business. However please note that not all of you will be attended to today, the migration process might take us three or four days before everyone can comfortably move into their own home. I urge you all to exercise patience during this exercise and I am cautioning you not to abandon your work posts negligently because of the move. Your department heads will give you permission to leave in shifts. For this reason in some departments work will be done in day and night shifts, those who move during the day can work at night. This will be done until everyone has successfully migrated. Lastly please note that just because we are moving does not mean that this working district is going to be abandoned. Your work places remain here until further notice. Thank you, and may you have a good day."

"That will do, right?" she asked Rodney.

"It was perfect." Fey replied instead. "Now we should hurry, you have to move first in order to find time to care about the rest of the people."

"We packed yesterday, all we have to do is move into the castle." she reminded her sister.

"We are moving too," Rodney smiled, "The new media house is really beautiful. I love the revolving doors at the entrance and the spinning hologram at the top. We are going to need more programs for the cold...winter though. Many people spend this time watching television and I would hate to lose out to the televisions of other stars."

"If we had directors, talented actors and actresses, we would shoot our own movies." she sighed.

"Can we shoot short movies?" Rodney asked her. "The star mall has many script writers selling scripts. Also many reading platforms have short novels and other works for sale. If we can buy them we can cover up a significant gap."

"Shop around and see, I have a lot to do today so I can't sit down and share thoughts with you. I do have a short animation called avatar that can be aired during the winter. It will be loved by both the adults and children."

lightsnοvεl "Give it to me," he said to her. Scarlet was already rushing out and he was hot on her heels.

"Yes, the governor announced it a few hours ago. We blue star citizens can now move into homes. It's time to say goodbye to the night sky and the stars. "

[How much are the houses?]

[How tall are the buildings?]

"The prices of the houses differ but most of them range between one hundred thousand star coins to ten million. It depends on the size of your bank account and the size of the house you want I guess. The office of housing is offering mortgages so you can purchase a house and pay it off in ten or twenty years. If this system was implemented in the capital many of us would be able to live in beautiful apartments and houses."

[Oh wow it's so cheap.]

[What is the price of an entire floor?]

[Can I buy an apartment if I do not live on the blue star?]

[I can afford five apartments of ten million right now, full payment. Can I buy them as an investment?]

"Guys I see so many questions and I don't know which to answer first. Those of you who want to know about investments and stuff maybe you should contact the communications department. Anyway, this rich young master has purchased an apartment of two million star coins and I am going to give you a tour."

[Two million is rich, hahaha..]

[This poor young man, let me send you twenty castles to console your heart.]

Certified gold used his thumb print to enter the house and he said, "Welcome to my new home, I paid for a fully furnished apartment which cost me an extra six hundred thousand star coins. I have strained my account but I think owning my own home is worth it. By the way guys, did I mention that this two bedroom apartment is on the sixtieth floor has a view of the lake, take a look?"

He started his bragging as usual as he showed his followers his apartment. Thanks to him, the entire star net was soon filled with news about the beautiful blue star apartments.
