Baisha Bay.
The sun is bright, and the breeze is gentle.
Jiang Cheng, wearing sunglasses, comfortably lies on a beach chair, enjoying the coconut juice in his hand.
Baisha Bay is a na Jiang Cheng specifically gave to the place he currently lives.
Located on the western part of Jade Island, it falls under the administrative division of the Angel Beach Resort Special Zone.
The bay here is crescent-shaped, with a wide and gentle beach bed, and the sand is pure white and delicate, hence the na.
Compared to other resort areas, this place has lush vegetation, fresh air, and a more tranquil environnt, creating a private space where no one can disturb you. Coupled with the picturesque natural scenery, it becos an ideal place to live.
From the very first day he ca here, Jiang Cheng fell in love with this place and without hesitation chose it as his settlent.
After taking another big gulp of coconut juice, Jiang Cheng takes out his phone and opens the Island Tycoon APP.
He clicks on the property panel, and the three-dinsional holographic projection of Jade Island unfolds like a scroll before his eyes.
Jiang Cheng stretches out three fingers, aiming at the western end of Jade Island, flicking outward, and Baisha Bay, where he resides, is enlarged and becos clearer.
In fact, this is also a good place worth developing, but considering he’s currently living here, Jiang Cheng doesn’t want to be disturbed for the ti being.
Additionally, even though the environnt here is comfortable and the air is refreshing, the sightseeing and recreational spots are sowhat lacking. Therefore, it is more suitable for building sanatoriums, scenic villas, luxury hotels, and other lifestyle-oriented structures.
To make Jade Island famous, Jiang Cheng believes that there should be a truly eye-catching spot developed.
With this in mind, Dream Paradise Resort Special Zone becos particularly suitable.
Jiang Cheng moves his fingers and enlarges Dream Bay in the eastern part of Jade Island.
This area is the core zone of the Dream Paradise Resort Special Zone, facing the Pacific Ocean, with gentle sea breezes, abundant fish, and endless golden beaches.
The entire beach stretches nearly 10 kiloters, with golden sand that is fine and soft. The golden beach and azure sky reflect each other, creating a stunningly beautiful picture.
The most amazing sight is the distant, colorful sea water, which presents a fantastical array of changing colors due to the variation of light, magnificent and unique.
In the sea, there are also strangely shaped coral reefs and colorful fish swimming among them, making it incredibly beautiful.
Overall, Dream Paradise Resort is undoubtedly endowed with unique natural landscapes, making it the most suitable area for initial developnt.
"This is it!"
Jiang Cheng imdiately decided to select Dream Paradise Resort as the place for the first phase of developnt.
Developing a resort differs from building a city. It does not require a complicated transportation network nor a complete comrcial, industrial, and residential district but only needs essential infrastructure and lifestyle entertainnt areas.
This approach can save Jiang Cheng a large amount of money.
Although he has 10 billion USD at his disposal, this money is the initial fund for his future construction of the three main city centers and should not all be spent on a small resort. There will be many expenses in the future, and he must make every dollar count.
As a veteran player of managent gas, Jiang Cheng knows the necessity of controlling early costs. Every penny must be allocated reasonably; otherwise, the business model cannot be sustained, and in the end, he can only declare bankruptcy.
To develop the resort, an airport and port are essential.
Without an airport or port, how can tourists reach this place?
Besides, a supporting transportation network is also indispensable, such as roads, bridges, stations, and energy facilities, including power plants, gas stations, and water purification plants, as well as lifestyle and entertainnt facilities like hotels, restaurants, shopping malls, parks, squares, and amusent parks, among others.
After so calculations, Jiang Cheng feels his heart is bleeding, as this is all hard-earned money!
They say you won’t know the cost of household essentials until you manage a household. When he took charge of the financial power, he discovered that the so-called 10 billion USD startup fund was not enough to spend.
No matter what, since the decision to develop the resort has been made, let’s start!
Once the thought arises, Jiang Cheng moves his fingers and directly calls up the construction assistance system.
Imdiately, various 3D building models appear before his eyes, dazzling him.
All the buildings are divided into different categories.
By usage function, they are divided into residential buildings, public buildings, industrial buildings, agricultural buildings...
By construction scale, they are divided into extra-large buildings, large buildings, dium-sized buildings, small buildings...
By structural materials, they are divided into wooden structures, brick structures, steel structures, reinforced concrete structures...
Under each category, there are further subcategories, with corresponding permission levels attached. The most surprising feature is that the system humanely offers DIY services.
Jiang Cheng can mix and match freely according to his preferences, eventually forming building models that et his psychological expectations; of course, costs will also increase accordingly.
The only regret for Jiang Cheng is that all building permissions are level-locked, and only by reaching the corresponding Island Master level can he unlock them.
Currently, Jiang Cheng is a re Lv1, so even if he wanted to build high-level luxurious buildings, he can only look on longingly.
However, the Island Master level can be gradually increased, and the way to advance is by raising the valuation of Jade Island.
Currently, Jade Island’s valuation is temporarily at 18.7 billion USD. Once it reaches 50 billion USD, Jiang Cheng can be promoted to Lv2, and at that ti, buildings of the corresponding level will naturally be unlocked.
After roughly browsing through the building categories, Jiang Cheng focuses on airport, port, road, and other basic infrastructures. Once he gets a general sense of things, he officially starts the construction plan.
First, build a 4C class airport.
According to the International Civil Aviation Organization’s classification thod, civilian airports are roughly divided into five levels: 4F, 4E, 4D, 4C, and 3C.
Because Jiang Cheng is currently only an Lv1 Island Master, he can only build the lowest C-class airport, which can accommodate landing and takeoff of Airbus 320, Boeing 737, and other twin-engine, dium-range narrow-body jets.
After so DIY combinations, Jiang Cheng finally decided on a civilian airport shaped like a colorful seashell.
[Na]: 4C Class Civil Airport
[Paraters]: Runway X2, Waiting Hall X1, Control Tower X1, Maintenance Hangar X1, Parking Hangar X1, Refueling Station X1, Parking Spaces X80, Helicopter Pads X160, Ancillary Facilities X1
[Area]: 860,000 square ters
[Cost]: 27 million USD
[Duration]: 7 days
"Damn..."
Seeing the cost of 27 million USD, Jiang Cheng clicks his tongue, feeling a pang of heartache.
This is a whopping 27 million USD!
Enough for an ordinary family to enjoy a lifeti of wealth and luxury, but in a blink of an eye, it’s about to be squandered in his hands.
However, after a mont of hesitation, Jiang Cheng still grits his teeth and clicks the construction button.
"Build!"
Ding dong!
After the sound of coins tumbling, Jiang Cheng’s account is directly debited by 27 million USD by the system.
