After the rain, the autumn air is crisp. Li Xiang swings his homemade high-density chopping knife, effortlessly cutting down a bamboo stalk as thick as a bowl's mouth.
Suddenly, an ordina...
Chapter 119 "Apocalyptic Wind Underground Shelter" Theme Park Plan (Please subscribe, please vote)
That’s right, Li Xiang wants to get into tourism.
I guess he is the only one who can turn this blind date into a "poaching" or "recruitment" activity.
The tourist attraction has not been built yet, so we are just looking at these young girls from our hometown first to prepare talents and talk about it later.
After all, the scenic spot is near the remote Lijia Village, and it is difficult and inappropriate to recruit people from other places. The best way is to "use local resources" and recruit young elites from all over the country. Preferred are beautiful, good-looking and capable.
This is Li Xiang's plan. He wants to gradually build the scenic spot into a large, world-renowned "Apocalyptic Underground Shelter" theme park that can rival Disney, no, crush Disney.
Not only will there be a park, but related movies will also be released in the future, and even branch parks will be established in other places to make huge profits. When the end of the world comes, he is the controller of many underground bases.
Because building underground shelters and dungeons requires massive amounts of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. To be honest, the more than 30 million he has on hand is just a drop in the bucket.
Just imagine, how many billions are needed to build a city on the surface? Not to mention a lot, a small city that can accommodate 100,000 people would cost tens to hundreds of billions, and that's an underestimation. The specific amount of increase is difficult to estimate. It would be very difficult for Li Xiang to accomplish this task alone.
How long would it take just to dig out an underground space like that? Even if he can dig it out, what about the decoration? What about waterproofing and anti-seepage, water, electricity, ventilation, sewage, etc.?
What about hospitals, schools, factories, underground farms, power plants, arsenals... and so on?
There are more than 100,000 people living together in an underground world. Just the daily eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and the treatment of sewage is a huge project. It is necessary to invite professionals to design and plan.
However, it is not possible to cooperate with the country for the time being, so we have to do it ourselves.
In addition, for a base that cooperates with the state, can it still be in charge? Is it still yours? Then, the most important thing is that in modern society and in peacetime, it is impossible to build houses privately, let alone build underground shelters on a large scale.
This is the same principle as the ancient practice of "selling oneself to bury one's father".
Why do you need to sell yourself to bury your father? Wouldn't it be okay to just dig a hole and bury it? It's just that there is less sense of ceremony. We are so poor, so what's the point of paying attention to ceremony? That is not the case.
As soon as they dug a hole, Master Liu's servants came with weapons and said, "No burying! This is Master Liu's land!"
Move to another place, farther away. As soon as you bury your father, the servants of Mr. Qian's family come rushing over with guns and weapons, dig out your father's body, and beat you with a whip, shouting, "This is Mr. Qian's land. Who told you, a lowly slave, to bury him here?!"
Those who were unlucky were beaten to death directly.
Therefore, in order to exchange for a piece of land for a burial, they had to sell themselves and become slaves or maids.
When Zhu Yuanzhang's parents died, there was no place to bury them. Fortunately, he met a kind-hearted man named Liu Daxiu, who gave him a piece of land, so that his parents could be buried in peace. Later, when Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, he conferred the title of "Marquis Yihui" on Liu Daxiu, and the title was inherited by his descendants. During the Ming Dynasty, wealth and prosperity lasted for more than 200 years.
The original text is as follows: "When I was young, I lost my parents and it was difficult to lay my grave. You showed your kindness and sacrificed yourself to fertilize the land. You showed your kindness. You buried my father and mother in peace. How can I forget your kindness? I therefore bestowed upon him the title of Marquis, and also bestowed upon his wife, Lady Lou, the title of Marquis' Lady. I also wrote an article to offer my tribute."
In modern society, it is naturally impossible to build a house or any facilities privately. You need to obtain approval and go through formal procedures. Otherwise, it is an illegal building.
There have been cases in the past where people wanted to build houses in their own farmland in remote rural areas, like Lijia Village, far away from the hustle and bustle. They were worried about being discovered, so they did a big disguise, such as setting up a shed at night, covering it with green cloth, and laying some green branches on the top of the shed.
But we can’t keep the shed covered forever, can we? The reason why Li Xiang was not discovered when he was mining secretly last time was because he was a transcendent. He had a small base and was protected by the mountain, so he could do it alone. He also used the system space to secretly transport the stones back, leaving no traces. He also took advantage of the night and dark clouds in the sky to quietly release them in batches.
The key is that he only had a small amount of stones.
What if I replace someone else? There were all kinds of machinery and equipment, people coming and going, and it was very noisy, so he was caught immediately.
So, he decided to travel.
Under the eyes of people all over the world, a super underground shelter theme park was openly built, with a post-apocalyptic style and full of science fiction. Everything was done in accordance with formal procedures and was legal and compliant.
But to do this, you need money and a lot of financing.
If you want to raise funds, you must have traffic and profits, and let investors see the "money prospects". Who would work on a project that loses money? No one's money comes from the wind.
Li Xiang's initial plan was to build the backyard and nearby mountains and waters into a tourist attraction after becoming the village chief in the name of "developing the countryside and revitalizing the rural economy", and then apply for the first phase of the underground shelter theme park project.
But having tourist attractions alone is not enough, because there are plenty of places with tourist resources. Why would people come to your remote place?
Then we have to rely on him, the internet celebrity, to endorse the product. This is one of the main purposes of live broadcast in the early stage.
"Cultivating reputation" and "creating momentum" are actually easier in modern society than in ancient times. In ancient times, if children from poor families wanted to take shortcuts, many of them chose to live in seclusion in the mountains, especially Mount Zhongnan, so there is a term called "Zhongnan shortcut."
Even a man as great as Zhuge Liang had to "live in seclusion in Nanyang" in his early years.
In modern society, all we need to do is make good use of the Internet.
Li Xiang was lost in thought, and a huge blueprint had already emerged in his mind.
"Well, this plan cannot be completed in one phase. It must be divided into at least twelve phases, or even twenty-four phases or more. When all the underground shelters are connected, it will become a huge super underground city."
"In modern society, even if the end of the world comes, we can't live without the Internet. When the time comes, we have to find a way to build our own local area network, and then find ways to connect with other bases."
"It is also important to improve your strength. Fame and traffic are used in peacetime. When the end of the world comes, strength will be the most important thing."
However, the elixirs have not been used up yet. Li Xiang thought that by the turn of spring and summer, the elixirs on hand would be exhausted. At that time, he would choose a primeval forest to clear the mountain.
Because it is still early to the end of the world, only in the primeval forests are there more "potential mutant creatures".
However, it is impossible to consume the elixir in one breath. If you consume it too fast, your foundation will be too weak, which will be detrimental to your future practice.
"Brother, can you be serious? We are rehearsing!"
Jiang Caier's words brought Li Xiang back to reality.
"Okay, continue right away."
"Hmph, I don't know which woman you are thinking about day after day." Jiang Caier curled her lips and secretly felt lucky that she was "smart" and ruined all his blind dates. Otherwise, we would not be rehearsing at home now, but going out on a date.
Now, not only Li Xiang and his team are rehearsing, but the entire Lijia Village has entered a stage of intense training and rehearsal.
People from all over the country are paying close attention, especially those villages like Leijiagou, Shenjiawan and Zhaojiaping where people come to perform. Needless to say, Lijia Village.
Li Xiang's popularity is still very good. Every time he broadcasts live, the number of people online ranges from thousands to tens of thousands, and sometimes even exceeds 100,000. Everyone prepares very carefully.
Even if he doesn't want to become famous by following Li Xiang, at least he can't be too embarrassed and be laughed at, right? Especially the gongs and drums used in opera, which make the loudest sound. Li Xiang also got a job as a flute player. But he didn't want to sing because he had several other programs to rehearse.
Originally, there was a lot of work to do before the Chinese New Year. For example, Li Xiang had planned to shoot a video on the traditional method of making malt sugar, including using melted malt sugar with popcorn, sesame seeds, peanuts, etc. to make various special "sugar slices" or "sugar leaves". For example, sesame seeds cut into thin slices are called hemp leaves, and there are also videos on making glutinous rice cakes and steaming jujube flowers. However, there is no time and we can only wait until next year.
I have finished eating the tofu and now I don’t have time to grind it.
The village evening party is of utmost importance. It is not only about making money through live broadcast and promoting the reputation of Lijia Village, but more importantly, it is about enhancing the cohesion of young people in the surrounding villages. These are the future teams.
When Xiang Yu started his army, he also recruited young men from Jiangdong.
Of course, fans are also important. If someone comes to him in the future, he will naturally accept them. His foundation is the "Internet", so his fans are equivalent to his "Jiangdong disciples".
With so many fans supporting him, especially those who give large rewards, buy things frequently, comment, and like his posts, doesn't he have to find a way to rescue them?
"Aunt No. 1 on the list" will be one of his key rescue targets in the future. No matter how difficult and dangerous it is, he must rescue her. After all, when he was in obscurity, the other party was so generous and kept giving him expensive gifts to help him increase his popularity. He will always remember this kindness and repay it.
In addition, there are several benefits to publicly building a "Doomsday Shelter Theme Park". When the end of the world comes, everyone knows that there is a shelter here and will try every means to get here.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Then it is also an indirect way to remind the relevant departments. If he officially reveals his cards in the future but his opinions are not accepted: Look, I have started large-scale construction and have already built more than a dozen major projects. Do you want to follow me?
…
Jiang Jianguo and Aunt Jiang have been very happy these days because Jiang Caier's final exam results are out.
Better than before! In the past, although Jiang Caier could rank in the top 20 in the whole grade, her best was ninth and she had never been in the top five. But this time, she unexpectedly took the top spot and got first place in the whole school!
She was nicknamed "the female top scholar" by her classmates! The class teacher, Mr. Huang, was naturally very pleased. After the results and rankings were sent to Jiang Jianguo and his wife, they were also very happy.
The head teacher said that if I keep working hard and maintain this momentum, not only will I be able to get into a 985 university, but I can also make an impact on getting into Peking University or Tsinghua University.
Nowadays, prestigious universities tend to recruit students from big cities. The situation is becoming increasingly difficult in small cities, especially in small counties and township high schools. The only thing you can rely on is your college entrance examination scores.
And what about big cities? A student from the rural area who was admitted to Peking University and Tsinghua University based on his own achievements once said that what shocked him most after entering these top domestic universities was not the large number of geniuses, nor how strong the library, cafeteria, and faculty were, but that... 80% of the students here did not even have college entrance examination scores, but were admitted through various channels, such as winning awards in top competitions, strong foundation plans, other specialties, special identities (children of heroes, outstanding retired athletes), etc.
In other words, only about 20% take the college entrance examination route. This is the hard work that counts.
You fight for that 20% chance! How can people in smaller cities access those pathways?
Even if you know, how do you roll? Can you compete with other people’s resources? There has been no one from Jiang Caier's school who was admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University for several years, and the class teacher has high hopes for Jiang Caier.
Jiang Jianguo and Aunt Jiang both knew that this should be attributed to Li Xiang. Because ever since Li Xiang came back, her daughter would go to Li Xiang's house whenever she had time and ask Li Xiang to help her with her homework.
Sure enough, significant results were achieved.
I was worried before that my mind would go wild here, but now I can rest assured. Those who gossip can shut up now! Some people in the village want Li Xiang to help tutor their children, but Li Xiang doesn't have the time. Then those people just thought about it and were too embarrassed to speak out. Because they knew that Li Xiang was too busy.
Who made the Jiang family and the Li Xiang family have a good relationship?
On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Xiang took Jiang Caier, his cousin Shen Wenqian, and his cousin Shen Zimo to the county town. In addition, Jiang Jianguo also went there in a tractor.
Jiang Jianguo mainly went to help transport the audio equipment, as the goods that had been ordered previously had already arrived. Li Xiang brought everyone to the digital store. After trying out and counting the goods, he asked Jiang Jianguo to help pull them back and unload them in his backyard until he returned to install them.
The store owner was very welcoming. Since Li Xiang was a big customer, he gave him several small electronic devices as gifts. When he sent them out, he patted his chest and assured them, "The quality is absolutely good. If you have any problems, feel free to contact me to replace them. If you encounter any problems with installation or use, just give me a call and I will be there right away!"
Li Xiang shook hands with him and expressed his gratitude.
"Brother Xiang, I have a request." The shopkeeper said reluctantly.
"Just say it!"
The store owner asked, "Can I also come to your house to watch the live village evening tomorrow night?"
"Haha, of course you can. It's an honor to have you here!" Li Xiang naturally gave a warm welcome.
"Then I'll bring some more people with me. Well, I'll go early tomorrow and help install and debug the equipment."
"Okay, okay, thank you, thank you."
Afterwards, Jiang Jianguo dragged the equipment home, while Li Xiang took Jiang Caier, Shen Wenqian and Shen Zimo to buy clothes.
I promised my cousins that I would buy them clothes, and I can't go back on my word. The New Year is almost here, and it will be too late if I don't buy them now.
In addition, if someone in the county town invited me to dinner, I would go there to have a meal after buying clothes.
Although the county town is small and not prosperous enough, there are actually some high-end stores that sell specifically to wealthy people, because there are many wealthy people in the county town and these people also have needs.
Li Xiang can now be considered to have achieved "clothing freedom", so he took his cousins to those stores.
My cousin was shocked. It was too expensive. Moreover, these high-end stores were decorated magnificently, which made my slightly introverted cousin and my young cousin who had not seen much of the world feel very restrained.
Jiang Caier, on the other hand, is playful and lively, and can even help with bargaining.
Thanks to “08a” for the reward. Thanks to “City Covered with Snow”, “Broken Wings_A Bird That Can’t Fly”, “Du Ke Kong Kong”, “Trust in Freedom”, “Book Friend 20170818162757334”, “Zhe Hu Zhi”, “Hong’an Wei General”, “Wo Di Cuo”, “Book Friend 20181107174403667”, “Book Friend 20190707081833844”, “Anger..Beauty”, “Ant Song Shao”, and “Book Friend 20170921182816659” for their monthly tickets.
Who could have guessed that the protagonist would actually build a shelter in public? This cool move is at least worth a few monthly tickets...Thank you.
