Chapter 19: Glasses Stolen
The game was not known how to operate, but the bank's asset appraisers were brought to the theme park on Sunday. After the TV interview program was broadcast, the popularity of the theme park soared rapidly. On Monday afternoon, Chi Yizheng received a text message from the bank. Within two days, the land lease contract with the government was automatically sent to Chi Yizheng's mailbox. He didn't even have to show up in person, as he could complete the operation online.
Chi Yi sincerely thought that this game was extremely powerful. If he hadn't used the game, it would have taken him a month to complete the process on his own.
But even with a game supervisor, Chi Yizheng still carefully checked the contract without fear of being cheated.
This time he planned to rent the 1,000 acres of flat land and hills behind the park. It was now a wasteland covered with weeds. No one had developed it for many years, and it could not generate other value due to various factors. It had been left there for so many years. Therefore, although it was commercial land in the city, the contract price was not expensive. The annual rent for one acre was 1,000 yuan, and the minimum lease term was 10 years.
The government, noting the park's technological prowess and recent buzz, is clearly optimistic about its future. Furthermore, with supportive policies and preferential treatment, the park is offering a two-year rent reduction, bringing the total rent for the 10-year period to 8 million yuan.
"Eight million!" Chi Yizheng made a distressed sound.
[The mission does not require players to lease 1,000 acres of land. If players feel the price is unaffordable, they can choose to lease only a few hundred acres or dozens of acres.]
Chi Yizhen decisively refused, "No."
Although the mission required expanding the park by one acre, this was only Mission 3. There would be Missions 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and so on. If he only leased a small amount, would he have to sign contracts with the government again and again for each subsequent expansion mission? Why make so many trips when he could complete it all at once? Wouldn't that be a waste of effort?
Moreover, although the game has many small tasks, Chi Yizhen has never forgotten the main task: to become the world's top theme park. Since it is a top theme park, the area cannot be small, and the land required in the future should be more rather than less.
So he simply went to the bank for a loan, intending to lease a thousand acres of land at one time. He was even worried that a thousand acres of land might not be enough, but this worry would only happen several years later, so Chi Yizheng focused on the present.
Although the park his grandmother had left him was small and shabby, it held two acres of land. Coupled with the even more valuable "holographic technology," the bank was happy to lend money to Fantasy Park. He signed the contract and sent a copy to the bank, which approved it and quickly released the loan.
Of course, the money did not go into Chi Yizheng’s account, but was transferred to the government.
After the process is completed, the thousand acres of land behind the paradise will belong to Chi Yizhen for the next ten years. During this period, Chi Yizhen upgraded himself and the paradise to level 4.

[Congratulations to the player for completing Task 3, and receive 100 points as a reward.]
[Congratulations to the player for completing the task of achieving an average daily passenger flow of 200 within a week. The reward is only one set of ticketing system.]
[The player's current total score is 42900, please keep up the good work! ]
Due to various factors, the Fantasy Park was very popular this week. Many internet celebrities came to the door to take advantage of the popularity. The number of people lining up to buy tickets to enter the park every day was far more than usual. He no longer needed to rely on his personality card to sell his body to attract customers. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to check the progress of the tasks and the points he had earned. Now that he saw that he had more than 40,000 points, Chi Yi, who had only a few hundred or a few thousand points, felt an unreal feeling of sudden wealth.
"How should I spend these 40,000 points?"
Task 4 requires an average daily passenger flow of more than 200, but in fact, the Fantasy Park has sold more than 500 tickets every day in the past few days. It’s not that there are only so many tourists, but the park is too small. Even if it receives tourists non-stop from 8 am to 9 pm, it can only accommodate so many people. Many of these tourists have bought tickets but cannot enter the park. They can only queue outside in batches, which is a very bad experience for tourists. Chi Yizheng has heard a lot of complaints in the past two days. At that time, the land leasing process had not been completed and the park could not be expanded, so it could only be used like this for the time being. But now it’s different. The land has been leased and there are plenty of points. It’s time to make drastic changes to the park.
If Chi Yi was really forced to do this in the beginning, now he has felt the joy of running the park and is full of energy every day. He thinks that if he could foresee what the park would look like now when he was a sophomore and facing his grandmother's dying wishes, he would definitely be very happy!
Because he knew in advance that the land leasing process could be completed today, when the park opened today, Chi Yizheng hung a sign to inform tourists that the park would be closed for the next two days to upgrade technology, and also posted a notice on the platform account and official blog.
He was full of energy, opening the theme park model and about to start construction when he suddenly noticed a red message on the game panel. He opened it and took a look.
[Players, please note that a batch of glasses were stolen two hours ago.] A surveillance video is also attached.
In the video, two men who were dressed very low-key and could blend into the crowd and disappear in the blink of an eye bought tickets to enter the park normally, and then stole a small box of plastic glasses when Chi Yizheng was not paying attention.
Chi Yizhen: Ah, this...
He felt a bit complicated. If those people knew that the holographic glasses they risked their lives to steal were really just plastic glasses that cost a few dollars a pair, he wondered what their expressions would be.
"Yugi, why didn't you remind me then?"
[The player was in deep sleep at the time and should not be disturbed.]
Chi Yizhen: ...
As his level increased, his physical fitness far surpassed that of a normal person. Now, he only needed two or three hours of sleep a day to be fully alert for work. To ensure adequate sleep, he had indeed reminded the game not to disturb him. The glasses were stolen when he was anxious to close the park and go to bed.
"Okay!" Chi Yizheng forgave Youxi, but he could not forgive the person who stole his things. After thinking about it, he asked Youxi to help him call the police and send the surveillance video to the police station, and then he didn't care about it anymore.
Rubbing his palms together, Chi Yizhen said, "It just so happens that the park has been upgraded. Let's try to see if we can eliminate the glasses and achieve true 'naked eye holography'."
Even though a pair of glasses only cost a few dollars and could be recycled, they still cost money! He also needed to constantly top up his mana, which took up half his daily time. He had to fix this, or else, with the ever-increasing number of tourists, he'd be exhausted just fiddling with the glasses every day!
