My courtyard shelter
Chapter 926:
Yinlibela Island is an inverted triangular island, and Black Bakriso is located on the easternmost corner. The two places are 250 kilometers apart and it takes about three or four hours to drive.
"Xu, what do you think of our place?"
Vicky asked casually.
Dabao looked at the street scene outside the car window and couldn't help but praise: "It's great. The roads here extend in all directions and the buildings are well-proportioned, especially the greenery. There is a small garden almost every one or two kilometers.
Growing up, I have been to many cities, including megacities like Shanghai and Beijing, and large islands like Qiongdao, but I have never seen such a beautiful city. How did you do it? "
"It's very simple, as long as you are willing to spend money."
Vicki's tone was flat.
Speaking of which, this island is inhabited by the upper-class elites of the Boston consortium and their families. It is a place where rich people gather together, so naturally they are willing to spend money.
It is said that these tens of thousands of gardens alone consume one-third of the island's freshwater resources every year.
Definitely a luxury.
"Ahem, how many people are there in total on the island?"
Dabao shook his head secretly.
Sure enough, money can make all the difference.
If this were placed in Yahu, it would not work even if you have money. First of all, in the review process, you will be PASSed.
Because their manor is a private residence, the space is large enough, and it has small seawater dewatering equipment, so they built their own flowerhouse and plantation.
"Almost half a million!"
"Only five hundred thousand? Logically speaking, this is the capital of a state, and the environment is so good, so the population should be more than this." Dabao looked puzzled.
"There are household registration restrictions on the island, so ordinary people can't come even if they want to. They are either technical and service personnel, rich people, or soldiers. Ordinary people have little chance." Vicki replied.
Generally speaking, the more people a city has, the more dynamic it will be, and the development of industry and planting is inseparable from population.
"Why is it safe?" Vicki admitted openly. "Since the great flood, the mob below has become more and more rampant. If they are allowed to go to the island, it will be irresponsible for everyone's safety."
“Can’t the police be strengthened?”
"The police are as unreliable as the army. There have been several infiltration incidents before. Only by limiting their numbers can we fundamentally solve the problem."
“How can we develop the economy without a population?”
Dabao asked immediately.
Vicky shook her head: "The current situation is critical and it is not a good time to invest. Besides, blindly developing the economy is not necessarily a good thing. The more workers there are in the factory, the easier it will be to gather workers. It will be very troublesome then."
"You are eating waste food."
"Xu, I know the meaning of this idiom. It may be because our national conditions on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are different. For us, safety is always the first priority."
Dabao felt that his three views had been impacted. We must know that development is the foundation and key to solving all problems. This is common sense.
Within their Asia Union, both senior officials and petty officials are working hard to attract investment and develop the economy.
Afraid of falling behind others.
On the other side of the ocean, the situation is reversed. There are such huge differences between the two sides.
This gave him a vague illusion:
America, a young country that has only been established for less than thirteen years, seems to be aging before its time, becoming senile and senile.
"Vicky, what you are doing is wrong. It is simply treating the symptoms but not the root cause. If this continues, something big will happen sooner or later."
"Well, no matter what we do, the big thing you said will happen. The reason why my grandfather wants to go to Ceylon Island is to prepare a way out.
And there is another thing that you have not considered. The island under our feet is actually a volcanic island. Although the possibility of another eruption is unlikely, there are no absolutes in everything.
Once the volcano erupts in the future, ordinary people on the island will most likely turn into thugs at a critical moment, so we must have the absolute initiative. "
Dabao nodded, looking thoughtful.
Perhaps because she wanted to help the family, Vicky then begged face to face: "Xu, Ceylon Island is really important to our family, can you help us?"
"How can I have this ability?" Dabao shrugged helplessly, "This matter involves so many things that even my dad dare not express his opinion casually, let alone me?"
"Isn't your family the richest? Don't you even have this little influence?"
"As you said, our national conditions on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are different. My father has taught me since I was a child to stay away from politics. To be honest with you, our family can't even hide from this kind of thing. How can we dare to go forward?"
"Then how did your dad become the richest man in the world?"
Vicki looked suspicious.
Even though they are a capitalist stronghold that advocates free competition, they often need to proactively deal with officials. This is almost an open secret.
Dabao smiled bitterly and said, "You may not believe it when I tell you. When I was born, our family was still an ordinary family. My father's monthly salary was less than 10,000 yuan. It was difficult to support the whole family."
"Your family really comes from an ordinary family?"
Vicki said in shock.
Although there has always been a "dream of a beautiful country" in the past, that was a story hundreds of years ago.
In recent decades, especially after large flares, they have become unheard of.
To some extent, all the wealth in America is controlled by these big families behind the scenes. Ordinary people can only survive by completely relying on them.
This is the reality.
Dabao nodded solemnly: "It's true. My father can be said to have started from scratch. He was very lucky. He hit the jackpot several times in the early stage of his business, which led to the opportunities later."
"Okay, let's see if I'm forcing others."
Vicky's face was immediately disappointed.
Dabao felt a little reluctant and quickly comforted her:
"I just talked to my father on the phone this morning. According to him, the higher-ups are very interested in the technical information provided by your family and may agree."
After all, judging from the previous "restriction on investment", the higher-ups' attitude towards America is completely different from that of Babylon. Overall, it is still mainly about winning over.
"Really?" Weiqi immediately took out her cell phone, "I want to tell grandpa this good news. Grandpa didn't sleep last night. Our whole family is very worried about his health."
"Why don't we talk later? I'll call again at noon to confirm."
Dabao felt a little sorry. He didn't want to let the other party be happy for nothing. This was too cruel.
Weiqi waved her hand: "It's okay. Grandpa is actually most worried that you are not interested. After all, your technological achievements over the years are obvious to all.
In the past ten years, many young people in the family have chosen to study abroad in your Daxia, and the number is increasing."
