Chapter 15: The Dragon Rise Plan

Chen Yang boarded the helicopter and casually remarked, "They also sent some jewels, but they're all on the yacht. I don't think it's worth showing them. They're not that interesting."

"Jewels aren't interesting?"

"With all of this—the yacht, the sports cars, and the helicopter—the jewels seem to lose their sparkle."

"It seems whoever sent all of this is either an international consortium or someone extremely wealthy!"

"These countries must be very confident in the development of the Kingdom of Yan Guo to send so many gifts overnight."

"But what exactly do they see in this island?"

"It's just a deserted island. Why all the fuss?"

Chen Yang adjusted his phone and announced, "I'm taking them to see the latest gift they sent us. Get ready, we're taking off."

With skill, the helicopter began to lift off, surprising online spectators.

"Hey, do you know how to fly a helicopter?"

"That's amazing! He's really flying it!"

Internet users were shocked to discover that Chen Yang not only received incredible gifts but also demonstrated the ability to fly a helicopter.

Guiding the helicopter, Chen Yang soon reached a point above the island.

A few minutes later, the helicopter gently landed on the ground.

Jumping from the helicopter, Chen Yang adjusted the lens to the back of his phone.

Suddenly, a group of workers wearing work clothes and helmets, holding shovels or hoes in their hands and digging hard, appeared on the live broadcast.

Wherever you look, it's all people!

After a whole night of digging, it was discovered that there was no grass growing in the vast area, which was sharply contrasted with the greenery in the distance.

Upon seeing these workers, internet users were shocked once again.

Even though they had seen fishing boats, yachts, and helicopters, they had never been as surprised as they were at this moment.

"Is all of this people?"

"How many people must be there?"

"How did so many people get there in one night?"

"This seems ridiculous to me. How did you manage to send so many people there?"

"They all seem to be from the Dragon Kingdom."

"There must be at least thousands of people, right?"

"I saw a backhoe."

"And a steamroller."

"Are they going to help in building the city?"

Chen Yang slowly showed the workers at work. As for the excavators and other equipment, he deliberately only showed images of some of them.

He did not specify how many excavators there were, and there was no need.

With the omen of luxury cars, yacht, helicopter, and so many workers, internet users automatically begin to formulate their own conclusions.

Chen Yang said, "Although I cannot reveal who the friends are that financed me, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to them."

"What's the point of hiding it? Even a blind person can deduce."

"I don't know about other countries, but there is definitely an influence from the Dragon Kingdom in this!"

"And oil-producing countries must be among them."

"That yacht probably came from a European country."

"I thought he would buy an island, build a country, and start life from scratch, but he ended up reaching the pinnacle of my life in just one day."

"Brother, get ready to print your passport. I can't wait to move."

Chen Yang returned to the helicopter and sat in the cockpit. He picked up the backpack and said, "In addition to financial, material, and labor support, these friends also helped me with technical support."

He opened the backpack and took out large books resembling encyclopedias.

First, he unfolded a piece of paper until it reached two square meters.

"This is the map of the Yan Guo Kingdom!"

"Here, I must thank these friends. They flew helicopters all night to assist in the surveying and mapping."

Chen Yang smiled and waved to the camera, as if expressing his gratitude to that "country" from afar.

"What do you mean, the maps are already done?"

"Drawing a map is not a simple task. If it was possible to do this in just one night, few countries would have the ability to accomplish it."

"Yes, this goes far beyond money, it also involves technology. Many countries lack expertise in this area, and it's nearly impossible to design a detailed map in just one night."

"Wow, is this island 730 square kilometers?"

"How do you know that?"

"It's marked on the edge of the map."

"Incredible! It's huge!"

"It truly is impressive. How could someone map such a large island in just one night?"

"Did they use helicopters for that?"

"At least dozens of helicopters, and maybe drones as well to assist."

"The cost of that map must be astronomical."

"Well, that doesn't seem to be a big issue."

"And the quality of the map is exceptional."

"The 3D detailing is amazing, even the forests and lakes are represented."

Chen Yang pointed to a spot on the map and said, "I'm here now."

"I'm about to start the construction of the first city of the Yan Guo Kingdom, called Yan City°, at this location!"

"I'll begin the first phase of the Yan Guo cities construction plan from Yan City. I call it the Longteng° Plan!"

(Translation note:

Yan City: In the original it was "Yancheng" which literally means "Salt City" in Chinese. But I chose to change because it is an existing city in China and it would be strange here.

Longteng (龙腾) is a Chinese word that has several meanings, each with its own nuances and interpretations. The most literal translation of Longteng is "rising dragon".)
