Chapter 1151: White Stone Beach Project
These foreigners, after seeing the information just now, reached a conclusion: this time coming to Daxia is the right move.
The focus of their children's careers should tilt toward Daxia.
By leveraging the Yang Family's uniquely advantageous position, they boost their own commercial competitiveness, then turn around and use that advantage to defeat domestic rivals, gradually controlling more economic benefits.
Now they have reached the limit of development in their own country; above them are only a few megacorporations.
They firmly control the upper‑tier economic interests.
Because of identity issues, they find it hard to reach the core.
To develop further, they must seize the rising tide of Daxia, grow rapidly, then use this momentum to strike back at the opponent's entrenched interests, making themselves strong enough to sit at the table.
The tourist RV gradually headed west, took a good look at the largest city in the desert region of Keshí, whose economy is booming, then turned southeast.
As the altitude rose along the road, desolation and grandeur filled their hearts.
Human insignificance is so trivial.
Like a spacecraft entering the starry sky, utterly insignificant..
Along the way, they saw many dump trucks and various large road‑construction machines.
They wound their way along the steep, rugged mountain road.
He Jin'er, via the RV's drone, saw the outside situation.
"Old Yang, is this a road being built?"
Yang Fan sat in the driver's seat, ready to take over the autonomous driving at any moment.
Hearing He Jin'er's words, he looked toward the sheer ridge and the distant pristine white snow.
"It's not just a highway; there's also a railway."
"It's the railway that runs directly from Keshí to Lada."
"This railway can revitalize Keshí, White Stone Beach, Arirang, and Lada along the route."
"Subsequently, these places will see increased investment."
"Forming a Western Border economic belt."
No one present is a fool; He Jin'er understands the purpose of this.
However, these regions have very weak economic foundations because of the high altitude.
Primary industry is scarce, let alone secondary and tertiary industries.
She pulled up the White Stone Beach map, checking the population distribution and water‑body map of the area.
The situation is far from optimistic.
"This place lacks people, lacks land, many areas lack water, the temperature is cold and dry, and it has almost no development value."
"This Western Border economic belt?"
What are you talking about, is this even possible?
Yang Qihang understood what she was saying, retrieved a survey report, and tossed it virtually to He Jin'er.
"This is the wind‑energy and solar‑energy resource survey report for the White Stone Beach region."
"This is the experimental report on greenhouse cultivation technology in White Stone Beach."
"This is the feasibility report on applying Yueqiu Base construction technology in White Stone Beach."
"This is the construction plan for a semi‑submersible base in White Stone Beach."
"This is the development plan for an Extraterrestrial Base experience and exploration tourism project in White Stone Beach."
"Conservatively estimated, we can settle several hundred thousand people here."
"If development goes well, breaking a million residents in the future isn't impossible."
"The environment here is harsh; could it be harsher than on Yueqiu or Mars?"
"Much of our aerospace and Extraterrestrial Base technology can be applied here."
"The plateau environment is indeed harsh, but such harshness is also a resource."
"Moreover, most of our construction plans are semi‑submersible, even fully underground; with wind and solar clean energy support, living issues are still easily solved."
"Also, this place isn't far from Keshí, making oil and gas supply very convenient."
"Those who love travel and want to experience Extraterrestrial Base life or high‑altitude living will find this the best choice."
Another complete proposal.
Hundreds of thousands of people? That should be enough to fill most service‑industry positions.
Building greenhouses in places with water, good weather, ample sunshine, and little wind will also solve the food problem here.
If we develop some glacier projects further…
There's still great potential.
Yang Fan listened to Yang Qihang and their discussion, thinking that the military value here is even greater.
If this develops, even tens of thousands—let alone hundreds of thousands—can deter some people from acting rashly.
When that time comes, it won't be others stirring trouble; those who used to worry and lose sleep will no longer be so.
After all, we've never relaxed, saying that there's still a large area over there that belongs to us.
Investing this heavily also has a more important reason: to secure the safety of the desert's sea‑gate, an economic main artery.
If you dare cause trouble, I'll kill you with a single slap.
A few hundred kilometers isn't even a foot‑on‑the‑gas thing?
Morgan and her group lack such insight, still dreaming about the rise of Extraterrestrial Bases on this land.
That would certainly be fun, right?
Who wouldn't want to experience alien life?
Lin Cuiping naturally has the insight; after hearing Yang Qihang, she knows this investment can't be stopped.
The Yang Family is going to suffer heavy losses again.
Daxia intends to develop this desert land, so the troublemakers who constantly stir things up here need to be kept in check.
They might even have to come to blows.
Fighting doesn't resolve anything, but it can show others that causing trouble comes at a price they cannot afford.
It can even help you reclaim what was rightfully yours.
As the vehicle moved forward, they gradually arrived at White Stone Beach.
Construction here is in full swing, with a scale that is enormously vast.
It's clear that this project is massive.
"Ah, this is spectacular," Morgan and the others exclaimed, having never seen such a grand construction scene.
From the drone's perspective, the whole screen shows people looking like swarms of ants, and the construction vehicles are tinier than a fingernail.
They've paved a long stretch, making the project's progress clearly visible.
They appear to be rushing against time.
"Qihang, do you feel they're rushing a bit?"
"Rushing is exactly what's needed."
Yang Qihang pointed to the outdoor environmental data displayed by the weather module.
"Do you see? This is nearly the warmest time of year; if we don't hurry, they'll soon be unable to work."
"This railway is scheduled for completion within two years."
"White Stone Beach must be finished this year—meaning it has to be open to traffic by this winter."
"Only once this area is open to traffic can our solar and wind power plants be completed swiftly; only with adequate energy supply can we begin building the greenhouse."
"With a greenhouse in place, we can start livestock breeding."
"Only with a solid primary industry can we keep people settled here."
"Only with people present can we advance the simulation base plan, allowing a small town to be built."
