Chapter 321 Become an Island Owner
Fort Saint-Louis.
Qi Sheng looked at the joyous Tan Huan and a group of envious girlfriends, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
In his previous life, he wouldn't even dare to dream about it.
It’s a pleasure to have so many beautiful women willing to give birth to children for me.
"Hubby, I want to give birth to a child for you too."
"I want one too. No wonder Huanhuan got pregnant for a month straight. You're so biased."
"That's right, Huanhuan won the first prize, so we have to share in the joy."
If no one had the chance before, then that would be fine.
Now seeing that Tan Huan had taken the lead, they all started to act coquettishly towards Qi Sheng, unwilling to be left behind.
"Okay, okay, there are still opportunities."
Qi Sheng shook his head helplessly. He knew this would happen.
But at this moment, Tan Huan was too lazy to care about him.
I held my stomach carefully, fearing that the little life inside would disappear.
Even Zhu Min and Qi Zhizhong, when they heard that Tan Huan was pregnant, rushed to Chengdu to visit their unborn grandson.
As for why he was so sure, of course it was because he was cheating.
The full-level vitality attribute not only allows you to hit the target every time, but also allows you to choose your own children.
As the official girlfriend, Tan Huan must of course be the first to give birth to a son.
Qi Sheng's wealth is measured in trillions of US dollars.
With such a large family business, there must be enough heirs.
Just like the Rothschild family, each heir is in charge of the business of a country.
But the son born to Tan Huan, like the prince, was destined to inherit more of the family business.
All girlfriends had anticipated this.
But even if you get a small share of the family property, it is still an astronomical figure that ordinary people can only look up to.
In order to give Tan Huan a surprise, Qi Sheng pestered her every day for a month.
Tan Huan didn't understand why at first until her period didn't come.
Only then did she find out in disbelief that she was pregnant.
What a surprise is, it's nothing more than this.
I wanted it so badly before, but I just couldn't get pregnant.
Just when Tan Huan was completely indifferent, she won the bid.
After having a child, Tan Huan was even more lazy to care about Qi Sheng.
Tan Huan also plays a big role in the harmony among the girlfriends group.
Since she, the leader, doesn't get jealous, it's natural that others would feel even more embarrassed.
This time when they came to visit Tan Huan, Zhu Min and Qi Zhizhong realized how extravagant Qi Sheng's life was.
There are hundreds of servants serving, more than a dozen master chefs, and a state banquet chef on call 24 hours a day.
With a villa of more than eighty rooms, he is living like an emperor.
But in Qi Sheng's opinion, Fort St. Louis is still a little small.
There are quite a few residents in the Atlantis community where we are located.
Often when people are taking a walk, they would gaze curiously at Fort Saint Louis.
Although you can't see anything, the privacy is still a bit poor.
On the day when Tan Huan successfully became pregnant, the system gave her a big gift.
98% of the ownership of Lanai Island, with a market value of US$1 billion.
Qi Sheng had of course heard of Lanai Island.
The former owner of the island was none other than Ellison, the founder of Oracle and one of the world's richest people.
When Ellison bought Lanai in 2012, he spent $300 million.
It has been investing in infrastructure for nearly a decade and has also purchased an airline.
Transformed Lanai from a pineapple plantation into Hawaii's most famous tourist resort.
Lanai, with an area of 364 square kilometers, is half the size of Singapore.
Located in Hawaii, the climate is naturally great.
The lowest temperature throughout the year is 26 degrees and the highest is 31 degrees. It is one of the favorite holiday destinations for many wealthy celebrities.
It is winter now and the climate in Chengdu is a bit damp and cold.
Qi Sheng brought his girlfriends, parents, and bodyguards with him.
Take two private jets to Lanai Island in Hawaii.
There is a small airport on Lanai, which is a military-built civil airport.
This is also the reason why the 2% property rights do not belong to Qi Sheng.
In addition to the airport, there is also a Manele Bay, which is also within the 2% property rights.
Food and other necessities for the island's more than 3,000 residents need to be transported by tugboats through this port.
These more than 3,000 residents are equivalent to the employees of Qi Sheng, the island owner.
When Qi Sheng's private plane arrived at Lanai Airport.
The head of Lanai City came to greet them with several civil servants.
Although there are only more than 3,000 people on Lanai, there is also a small city.
Or, it would be more appropriate to call it a small town.
Mayor John Green looked at the new owner of Lanai with a bit of curiosity and trepidation.
"Boss, the conditions on the island are rather poor, please forgive me."
Green looked at a group of people getting off the plane and was not surprised.
The previous island owner, Ellison, also liked to bring his family and friends to the island to stay for a while.
Although Ellison has invested a lot of money, Lanai is half the size of Singapore.
An investment of just a few hundred million dollars is not enough to bring about much change.
Most areas of the island still retain their original appearance.
The road condition is only good from the airport to the city.
Elsewhere, you will need a powerful four-wheel drive vehicle.
It is very suitable for tourists who like self-driving and off-road.
There is no traffic light on the island, so you can drive as fast as you want.
Of course, Green doesn't quite recommend it.
Several civil servants, including Green, were appointed by the former island owner Ellison himself and are not considered formal government officials.
Qi Sheng saw that Green was hesitant to speak, so he just threw him an ordinary talent recruitment card.
Green's eyes suddenly became extremely enthusiastic.
"Boss, the Dole Park in front is the central business district of the island."
“All the shops, restaurants and commercial facilities are centered here.”
“In addition, there are two Four Seasons hotels on the island.”
"The main feature of Koele Four Seasons is the rural pastoral style, while the main feature of Manele Bay Four Seasons is the beach resort style."
Green finished the introduction patiently and waited for Qi Sheng to make a choice.
“Go to Four Seasons at Manele Bay.”
Qi Sheng has plenty of time on vacation this time.
There is plenty of time to check in at both hotels one by one.
…
The convoy arrived at the Four Seasons Resort at Manele Bay in southern Lanai.
Wu Yue, the hotel general manager, who had been waiting at the door early, was extremely excited.
Because there are so few people on Lanai, he serves as the general manager of the two Four Seasons hotels on the island.
But in such a remote place, only some wealthy European and American celebrities come here occasionally.
His future is almost clear at a glance.
Wu Yue never dreamed that Lanai Island would be bought by his boss.
If nothing unexpected happens, the boss will definitely come here for vacation more often in the future.
Wu Yue certainly wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to perform.
Although he is also a talent provided by the system, he is even more loyal to Qi Sheng.
But this did not hinder him from climbing up.
Getting promoted and getting a pay raise is the instinct of all workers.
The system only makes them loyal to Qi Sheng, but it does not completely erase their humanity.
"Hello, boss."
Wu Yue walked forward enthusiastically, opened the car door, and greeted with a smile on his face.
"Take us in."
Qi Sheng smiled and nodded, and understood the other party's thoughts.
"OK."
Wu Yue nodded respectfully and led the way.
Following behind were Qi Sheng’s group of girlfriends, parents, and accompanying bodyguards.
The arrival of so many people made the hotel lively.
Winter is the peak season for tourism in Hawaii.
There are quite a few tourists on Lanai Island.
Wu Yue cleared out the entire top-floor suite in advance to make it convenient for Qi Sheng and his group to move in.
Fortunately, the hotel is large enough, with more than 200 guest rooms, so there is no need to worry about not having enough room.
Qi Sheng and Tan Huan naturally lived in the largest royal suite.
370 square meters is comparable to the large flats in China where each household has one floor.
But at this Four Seasons hotel, it is only the size of a suite.
The land is vast and the population is sparse, so it is so capricious.
Tan Huan was in a particularly good mood as she looked at the beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean in front of her.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Nestled in Qi Sheng's arms, gently stroking his belly, she was surrounded by a strong sense of happiness.
Have a tall and handsome husband and a cute and well-behaved child.
That is the dream of many girls.
Thinking of the baby she was expecting, Tan Huan couldn't help but smile slightly.
With her and Qi Sheng's genes, the baby will surely be good-looking.
"I plan to invest heavily in the development of Lanai Island and turn it into our private territory."
Qi Sheng hugged Tan Huan and expressed his thoughts.
"Private territory?"
Tan Huan was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused.
"Hubby, are you planning to live here permanently in the future?"
"Why, you don't like it here?"
"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that it's different here than back home, and I'm a little uncomfortable with it."
Tan Huan thought that Qi Sheng bought this island just to come here occasionally for vacation.
But from what Qi Sheng said, it seemed that he was planning to build a large-scale project on Lanai Island.
“The country is good, but it’s also dangerous.”
Qi Sheng deceived Tan Huan: "We are so rich that we can easily be treated as fat sheep. Planning overseas in advance is also to leave ourselves a way out."
"Yeah, then I support you!"
Although Tan Huan didn't understand it very well, she also knew the principle that a cunning rabbit has three burrows.
With Qi Sheng’s current wealth, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the richest man.
As the saying goes, a big tree attracts the wind.
Planning a retreat in advance may be a wise move.
"From now on, Lanai will be our family's private kingdom."
"There will be a large airport, many high-end hotels and shopping malls, and it will even attract countless wealthy people to live here regularly."
"When our child grows up, I will personally hand over this inheritance to him."
Qi Sheng's eyes were fiery, as if he had already seen the great changes that were about to take place on Lanai Island in his hands.
As for the population problem, Qi Sheng is even less worried.
The talents provided by the system are not only safe and reliable, but also have special skills.
With these talents working together, it is only a matter of time before Lanai rises.
Of course, the island cannot only have talents provided by the system.
Qi Sheng will also increase efforts to attract talent from the outside world and encourage foreign tourists to settle on the island.
With Lanai being nearly half the size of Singapore, it will be no problem for it to have a population of two to three million in the future.
At that time, Lanai Island was definitely no less attractive to the wealthy and talented than Singapore.
As long as Qi Sheng doesn't do anything stupid, he can maintain a certain level of armed force.
Lanai Island is the private kingdom of their Qi family.
…
Qi Sheng did what he said and set up a special fund for investment in Lanai Island.
The initial funding reached 10.5 billion, or 1.5 billion US dollars.
The original Lanai City will definitely be expanded.
In the future, it must be able to accommodate at least two million people to comply with Qi Sheng’s plan for Lanai Island.
Qi Sheng entrusted the specific urban design work to two newly recruited perfect-level talents, Qin Zheng and Dong Ping.
The former is the future chief executive of Lanai City.
The latter is the chief architect of Lanai City.
Airports, hospitals, schools, stations, ports and so on.
All of this requires Dong Ping to lead the team to complete the design work.
Dong Ping’s design team includes 10 master designers and 100 elite designers.
As the future chief regent, Qin Zheng also has a heavy burden.
There is a need to coordinate the development of the island and the management of the indigenous people.
The ruling team under him has the same talent configuration.
In addition, Qi Sheng specially recruited a security team of 500 people.
Firearms and equipment are all in accordance with American standards.
From bulletproof vests to goggles, they are armed to the teeth.
There are only more than 3,000 people on the island, and 500 fully armed soldiers are stationed there.
Who dares to object? The recruitment cost of this 500-member security team alone is as high as 2.6 billion.
All elite soldiers, equipped with a commander with master-level combat command capabilities and a full set of American equipment.
Qi Sheng didn’t know how others would judge him, but he was very satisfied.
Of course, this will only scare ordinary people.
In this era, it’s not about who has more people.
In front of aircraft carriers, fighter jets, and missiles.
No matter how many lives are lost, they are all in vain.
But Qi Sheng also has his own advantages. He can recruit unlimited talents who are loyal to him.
As long as he has money, Qi Sheng can even do things remotely.
Of course, the system does not recommend Qi Sheng to do this.
Be a low-key island owner, and the system will ensure Qi Sheng's safety.
This nominal mercenary guard officially entered Lanai Island.
On the entire island, it’s not true that people don’t pick up things on the road, but it’s not far from the truth.
Guests at the two Four Seasons hotels on the island rave about Lanai's security levels.
Civil servants led by Qin Zheng are also registering the indigenous people on the island, a total of 3,458 people.
The original method of power generation on the island was still fossil fuel power generation.
After Qi Sheng sent people to take over the power station and power grid, he arranged relevant talents to carry out research and development and maintenance.
It is only a matter of time before the island moves into a self-sufficient mode using solar power generation.
The existing Lanai Airport does not conform to Qi Sheng’s plan for Lanai City.
Qi Sheng gave Dong Ping a goal, to build a world-class airport.
At least, it can't be worse than Hamad Airport.
The total investment is US$24 billion and the area is about 30 square kilometers.
It is equivalent to 1/12 of the area of Lanai.
The scale of this airport is definitely not small.
The construction of an airport of this scale will take at least eight years.
On average, the investment is only 3 billion US dollars per year.
For Qi Sheng, who earns 1.65 billion US dollars a month, there is no pressure at all.
Anyway, he and his girlfriends will live longer than ordinary people and have enough patience to witness the changes on Lanai.
When his children grew up, they would just be able to see a private kingdom belonging to the Qi family rising up in the Hawaiian Islands.
On Lanai Island, Qi Sheng completely entrusted everything to Qin Zheng.
If you want money, give money; if you want people, give people.
Every month, Qi Sheng takes out 650 million US dollars.
The funds will be deposited into Lanai’s development account and invested in Lanai’s large infrastructure plan.
With his own strength, he supports the development of the entire island of Lanai.
Qi Sheng is the only one in the world who dares to do this because he has the system’s support.
Talent and funds are all provided by the system.
If 10 years isn’t enough, then 20 years will be enough.
Qi Sheng has enough patience to witness the rise of his kingdom.
