Chapter 1: Start an island!


Open your eyes.
Outside the window is the clear blue sky.
Jiang Cheng sat up on the bed, pushed open the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, and came to the outside of the villa.
From here, you can see an endless sea with distinct layers, from blue to turquoise, beautiful and dreamy.
23 degrees 26 minutes north latitude, 126 degrees 48 minutes east longitude.
Emerald Island.
Located in the Western Pacific Ocean, between the three major military bases of Yamato Country’s Hachimiya Island, the Philippines’ Subic Bay, and the American Tarot Island, it guards China’s East China Sea and the Pacific Ocean’s maritime traffic hubs. It is the route from East Asia to South America, North America, Russia, The geographical location of the important international waterway that Australia must pass through is extremely important.
After pacing, Jiang Cheng walked to the beach.
Looking around, I saw the natural coral reef blocking the wind and waves in the open sea, forming thousands of meters of white sandy beaches, colorful swimming fish swimming down and down the crystal clear water, and the coconut trees, sandy beaches and sea water formed on the island. A beautiful picture.
"Ugh……"
Looking at the magnificent scenery in front of him, Jiang Cheng sighed heavily and frowned.
He is not a tourist here.
In fact, this is his private island.
That's right!
This island with both tropical style and strategic significance is Jiang Cheng's private domain. It does not belong to any country and has complete territorial sovereignty!
is it possible?
of course!
Because here is no longer the earth, but the parallel world-Blue Star.
The humanities and customs of Blue Star are roughly the same as those of the earth, but there is a slight deviation in geographical features and historical processes.
Here is also an oceanic world, occupying 70% of the planet's area, but its volume is much larger than that of the Earth, which is comparable to Jupiter, more than 1,300 times that of the Earth, and has a group of starry islands that the Earth cannot match.
It can be said that Blue Star is the world of the ocean, but also the world of the islands!
Perhaps it is this vast geography that has deflected the historical process that should have been.
The starting point of the deflection was the great geographical discoveries from the 15th to the 17th century, known as the "Era of Great Navigation" in history.
In the 15th century on the earth, some developed countries in Europe carried out a series of ocean exploration activities to find new trade routes, which greatly expanded the scope of the known world.
The opening of new routes has made world trade unprecedentedly prosperous. With the rapid development of this period, Europe has laid the foundation for surpassing Asian prosperity.
The influence of the Great Geographical Discovery is contradictory. It has brought prosperity to the world, but it has also brought plunder and destruction to the indigenous people!
From this perspective, the great geographic discovery is a shameful history of aggression!
Almost all islands in Africa, America, Australia, Asia, the Pacific and the Atlantic have all become colonies of major empires.
These are all history that has already happened on earth and can never be rewritten.
At Bluestar, the situation is slightly different.
On the Blue Star, the great geographical discovery also began in the 15th century, initiated by the European maritime power Portugal.
However, due to the vaster oceans of Blue Star, the process of geographic discovery has been greatly slowed down, and it has continued to this day.
In other words, in the great nautical era that the earth should have ended in the 17th century, the Blue Star actually lasted into the 21st century.
In this context, the world is destined to be no peace.
Those islands that are strategically important as important maritime points will inevitably become the center of gravity of competition among nations.
Emerald Island is just such an island.
It has three sides to the south, north, and east, namely the Philippines, Japan, and the United States. It can be described as a pack of wolves waiting on the scene. It is no wonder that Jiang Cheng can't sleep at night.
It stands to reason that he was just in his youth, he was supposed to be accompanied by a beautiful woman, and every night was the right way to sing songs, but in reality he made a big joke!
Jiang Cheng is not a Blue Star man, but a newcomer on the planet. After he became rich overnight, before he had time to be happy and happy, he passed the Blue Star due to the HNA accident, became a rich child, and inherited it in confusion. The island.
It's not easy to talk about his current identity!
The only grandson of Jiang Zhenyong, the richest man of Chinese descent in the Philippines and a well-known industrialist, is also the only heir to the Jiang family.
As a successful businessman, Jiang Zhenyong has a very strategic vision. As early as decades ago, when everyone did not realize the value of Emerald Island, he bought Emerald Island at a sky-high price.
With the passage of time, the value of Emerald Island began to appear and aroused the coveting of empires such as Yamato and America.
According to the latest assessment, the value of Emerald Island has exceeded the wealth currently owned by the Jiang family.
Start an island!
This is the dream of countless travellers, but for Jiang Cheng, it is hell-level difficulty!
Confronting the major forces with one person, this kind of thing can only be done by fools, right?
It is of course impossible to change to the original owner of this body, but Jiang Cheng now wants to try this difficult start.
Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng took out his phone and clicked on an application icon on the interface.
"drop……"
"Island Tycoon system is loading..."
Along with the sound, Jiang Cheng saw a dense matrix of light spots, and quickly outlined a three-dimensional operation interface.
"My wise master, welcome to the island tycoon system!"
Ignoring the mechanical beep, Jiang Cheng looked at the top of the interface, where was the property panel of the system.

At present, Jiang Cheng has only one Emerald Island, and he controls the territorial waters of more than 40,000 square kilometers with Emerald Island as the center.
He clicked on an island-like icon in the upper right corner, and after turning his eyes, a holographic projection of Emerald Island and nearby territorial waters appeared in front of him.
This is a rare and tropical island full of greenery, just like a piece of emerald on the blue sea.
Most of the island is in an undeveloped state and retains the most primitive natural features. Only at the western end of the island, there is a lonely building.
This is the sea view villa given by the system when Jiang Cheng first arrived here for him to live in.
Above the holographic projection, some relevant information about Emerald Island is displayed.

"Nima... why is it up again!"
After skipping the basic information of Emerald Island, when Jiang Cheng's eyes fell on the valuation column, his face suddenly became dark, and he couldn't help but burst into a swear word.
