Chapter 402 Earthquake

Yang Jing played on the Golden Gate Bridge for more than three hours before returning to his residence with satisfaction.

Although I didn't feel tired physically after running around these days, my mind was always tense. Now that I have relaxed, I feel much more relaxed.

After relaxing, Yang Jing felt that the scenery in the Bay Area was indeed good. At least compared with the coastal cities in China, the scenery in San Francisco and its surrounding areas was much better.

It's not that Yang Jing is a Western worshipper, it's just that the scenery and environment here are really amazing. The scenery here is one aspect, but the most important thing is the protection of the environment, which is really incomparable to that in China. It's like the population of the entire Bay Area is close to 8 million, but the sky here is very blue, the flowers and trees are lush, and it's a typical beautiful scenery. It doesn't look like a metropolitan area at all, and people can't help but like it here.

There is very little heavy industrial pollution here, and it is almost invisible. As for what an urban area with a population of five million in the country is like, I guess everyone knows it without much explanation.

Lin Dan's suggestion today really caught Yang Jing's attention. He didn't need to buy a super yacht for the time being, but if he could buy a private island with a great view, it would be a good choice.

However, the prices of private islands seem to be very expensive nowadays, easily costing tens of millions of dollars or even hundreds of millions of dollars. Otherwise, why not let Mike Aller buy a few islands in the 1980s?

This method should be good. By then, you can buy a private island in any sea area with beautiful scenery, such as the Pacific Ocean, the South Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the Mediterranean Sea.

What? Why don't you buy a private island in the Caribbean? Come on, it's not that the Caribbean is bad, it's mainly because there are hurricanes there all the time. Who can stand a hurricane every now and then? I buy a private island to enjoy it, not to play house with hurricanes.

No matter where you buy a private island, the most basic requirement is that it cannot be located in an area prone to hurricanes and typhoons. As long as this point is deducted, everything else doesn't matter.

As for money, is that a problem? Just because I can't afford it now doesn't mean that the Dragon Fund in the 1980s couldn't afford it. To be honest, if Yang Jing's other identity, Cole Smith, was exposed, he might not be as good as Japan's Yoshiaki Tsutsumi - that guy was a bug in the 1980s and early 1990s, and he couldn't be compared with that kind of person. But he is definitely the richest man in the United States.

Well, when I have time, I will go and see Mike Aller and Cesar and the others, and take a look at the stock market crash in 1987. That will be another huge source of income.

Yang Jing had a beautiful thought. He picked up a glass of iced orange juice and walked out of the room. He stood on the balcony on the second floor, looking at the Pacific Ocean not far away and feeling the sea breeze blowing from the Pacific Ocean. It was beautiful.

The villa that Zhao Meng bought for him is located in the southwest of San Francisco's Fortress Park, and is only 20 meters away from the Pacific Ocean. The villa is located on the top of a hill, with a cliff more than 30 meters high below it, and the Pacific Ocean below the cliff. To the north are the famous Crosby Battery, Chamberlin Battery and Baker Beach, and the location is very good.

Lincoln Road is right outside the door. If you keep going north along Lincoln Road, you can reach the Golden Gate Bridge in less than 20 minutes. If you drive to Rongbao Mining San Francisco Branch, it will take 15 minutes.

San Francisco is different from Los Angeles to the south. It has a typical cool-summer Mediterranean climate. In May, the temperature in Los Angeles to the south exceeded 30 degrees Celsius early on, but in San Francisco, the highest temperature is only around 20 degrees, which is very comfortable.

Feeling the sea breeze, Yang Jing suddenly felt that living in such a place surrounded by mountains and rivers was very nice.

If there is one thing that is bad about this place, it is the earthquake.

San Francisco is located right on the famous San Andreas Fault, one of the longest and most active faults in the world. The Pacific Plate in the west and the North American Plate in the east meet here. The most unfortunate thing is that these two plates not only meet here, but the Pacific Plate in the east is always moving south, while the North American Plate in the west is always moving north. The two are constantly colliding at a speed of about 25 mm per year...

The Great San Francisco Earthquake in 1906, which almost destroyed the entire city, had a magnitude of 8.25 and shocked the whole world!

Just 29 years ago in 1989, a magnitude 6.9 earthquake occurred in Preta, about 100 kilometers south of San Francisco.

It is no exaggeration to say that the number of earthquakes above magnitude 4.0 that occur each year in the area from San Francisco to Los Angeles is almost the same as that in Japan across the ocean. It is definitely the most unstable region on the planet.

Earthquakes, like typhoons and hurricanes, are something that humans cannot resist. So, for the sake of your own life, it's okay to live here occasionally, but as for settling down or living there for a long time, forget it.

Besides, the villa I bought in the small town of Pissouri in Cyprus is no worse than here in terms of scenery, climate, beaches and diving. I don’t plan to live there for a long time, let alone here.

"Oh, it's a nice place, why are there always earthquakes..." Yang Jing had this thought just now, and as if to take revenge on Yang Jing for having such a thought, suddenly, Yang Jing felt that the sea water not far away seemed to begin to shake.

No! It's not the sea that's shaking, it's this house and the mountain under our feet that are shaking!

"Oh shit! There's an earthquake!" Yang Jing only managed to yell, then stumbled and fell onto the balcony.
