Living like a salted fish in the end times
Chapter 369 Disneyland
Chapter 369 Disneyland
"Newly built?" Zhang Hao asked in surprise.
"That's right, it was built the year before last. It covers a total area of more than 1500 mu. It is mainly divided into two worlds, above ground and underground. If you are interested in the consul, you can go and visit it." Governor Philip introduced.
"It's fine to visit, the schedule is too tight, but Disney is really rich and powerful."
Zhang Hao showed a hint of meaning.
After all, there is no way to guarantee food and clothing these days, and investing in such a large amusement park is definitely a very extravagant thing.
If it is placed in the local area, the possibility of passing the approval is very small. Even if it is barely built in the end, it will be called a dog by the general public.
Governor Philip seemed very frank: "Consul, there are many rich people in Cuba, and this Disneyland is more like their private amusement park."
"Really? It seems that Cuba's economic situation is more optimistic than everyone imagined. Although the capital has built many parks in recent years, there is no playground, let alone such a large area."
Zhang Hao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Governor Philip shook his head with a wry smile, and explained: "Consul, you overestimate Cuba. Although there is no shortage of rich people in Cuba, there is a huge gap between rich and poor. To use a famous proverb, this place is both heaven and hell.
Let me just give you an example. The cheapest Disney ticket costs 2000 yuan, which is equivalent to one-third of the monthly salary of ordinary people. It can be said that most people cannot afford it. "
"Why is it so expensive? What's interesting inside?" Yang Haoxuan couldn't help interjecting.
"The ticket price is expensive, so there is no way. After all, the construction cost is there, but there are indeed many interesting projects in it. The most amazing thing is the underground world. I guarantee that you will not regret it if you go."
Governor Philip replied patiently.
Hearing this, Zhang Hao shouted to the people in the car on the spot: "It's not easy for everyone to come out. If you are not busy, you can go to Disneyland to have fun."
"Consul, Disneyland is for children, so we won't join in the fun. Besides, the journey is tiring, and everyone is almost exhausted. How can we have fun?"
Everyone complained.
It has been eight months since the departure. Due to the change of the plan, the itinerary has been delayed a lot of time. If it continues like this, it may not be possible to complete the round-the-world investigation in three years.
In order to catch up with the progress, the inspection team had to speed up recently, resulting in shorter and shorter rest time, which was also the main reason why everyone was not very interested.
Zhang Hao couldn't help this, after all, he hoped to go back sooner than anyone else.
……
Cuba is worthy of being a developed region, and the place of residence arranged for the inspection team is actually a real luxurious manor with gardens and fountains, which is not at all the empty frame of San Francisco Weiyuan Company.
After living in the manor, Zhang Hao politely declined the welcome dinner arranged by the Cuban government. On the one hand, he was tired of experiencing too much before; on the other hand, he also wanted the members of the inspection team to have a good sleep.
However, although the dinner party is gone, there are still a lot of delicious food.
Everyone enjoyed a big meal in their respective rooms. The quality of the meal was undeniable. Beef, mutton and seafood were all served openly. To be honest, this was the best meal they had ever eaten since they set off.
On Yang Haoxuan's side, if there is no entertainment, he usually has dinner with his brother-in-law.
"Brother-in-law, this group of foreigners really enjoy themselves too much. Such a nice manor, with so many delicacies, makes me want to stay and hang on."
Zhang Hao cut a small piece of steak and put it in his mouth: "What? Are you envious?"
"How could you not be envious?" Yang Haoxuan took a bite of the big lobster and said through gritted teeth, "I finally saw what it means to be 'the wine and meat of the wealthy family stinks, and the road has frozen bones'. It's so fucking unfair."
"What's the matter with enjoying the money that people earn by their ability? Don't forget that your brother-in-law and I are also rich. Do you want to be sarcastic?"
Zhang Hao said angrily.
Yang Haoxuan swallowed the prawn meat, and smiled mischievously: "Brother-in-law, compared with what you have here, the things in your house are nothing short of pediatrics. No wonder these rich people are stuck in Cuba. With this living condition, I don't want to go to other places to suffer. "
"What you said is too one-sided. The reason why those rich people choose Cuba is more for security reasons. After all, islands are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Generally speaking, they are much safer than land."
As the largest island in the Americas, Cuba Island has a relatively low latitude and relatively complete infrastructure. In addition, the local residents are mainly white, so it is undoubtedly the best choice.
"Brother-in-law, these people are running amok on the island and even built a Disneyland. Are you just watching? Don't come forward to take care of it?"
Zhang Hao glanced at his brother-in-law, and couldn't help but tease: "He invites you to eat meat and live in a luxurious manor, is this how you repay him?"
"One yard for this matter, okay?" Yang Haoxuan put down the knife and fork casually, and said plausibly: "What they did is wrong, shouldn't people criticize it? If I follow their wishes, then I will only see small profits. Forget righteousness."
"The central government has the central government's considerations. The situation here is very complicated. What you see may not be true. Don't follow others and be coerced by your own emotions."
Zhang Hao took the opportunity to educate.
"What do you mean? I won't say anything else. That Disneyland is too outrageous. I don't know who approved it. There must be a power and money transaction. Brother-in-law, you should check it carefully. I think you can find out the big one." tiger."
Yang Haoxuan said categorically.
"Check?" Zhang Hao sneered, "This was personally approved by the former consul Ji Zhangqiu, do you have any opinions?"
"What? Is Ji Zhangqiu's head broken?"
Yang Haoxuan couldn't help being taken aback.
Historically, Emperor Sui Yang built the Grand Canal, although the disadvantages of the present, but at least it is also beneficial for the future, but what about Disneyland?There is no benefit to the people's livelihood.
"You're just out of your mind. Even you know that this is against the rules. Could it be that Ji Zhangqiu can't see it?"
"Then why did he approve it?"
Yang Haoxuan couldn't understand it.
"Of course there is an inside story."
Zhang Hao also just got the relevant information about Disneyland in Cuba. As he expected, it turned out that this matter was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
"What's the inside story?" Yang Haoxuan asked curiously.
"It's okay to tell you, you remember to keep it secret."
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I won't tell anyone, including my sister."
Yang Haoxuan patted his chest and promised.
Zhang Hao nodded, and then revealed the mystery: "This Disneyland is a paradise on the surface, but in fact it is a super refuge built by the rich. The whole project took ten years to complete."
"Super shelter? Just build it, why do they want to hide it from the public?"
"There are two main reasons. One is for confidentiality and safety, and at the same time to avoid unnecessary panic; the other is that the investment in the entire project is too large to be explained to the public, so we simply conceal it to the end."
Zhang Hao explained patiently.
"Well, even if what you said is reasonable, why did Ji Zhangqiu pass the approval? He can obviously refuse?" Yang Haoxuan changed the question.
Without official material support, any shelter is a joke and cannot be built at all.
"The reason is very simple. This is mainly to appease those rich people. If you don't leave a way out for them, how can they be willing to obey orders?"
Yang Haoxuan suddenly realized: "I understand. No wonder the tickets to Disneyland are so expensive. It turns out that it is really a private club for the rich."
"In a word, the water here is very deep, and it cannot be explained clearly in a sentence or two,"
Zhang Hao said earnestly.
Yang Haoxuan waved his hands helplessly: "Okay, I just don't ask."
"I just discussed with Governor Philip. Tomorrow, you will visit Disneyland on my behalf, and come back and tell me about the situation there."
Zhang Hao became very interested in that super refuge.
"Brother-in-law, why don't you go by yourself?"
"Those rich people are very vigilant about the Federation. My identity is too sensitive. If I really go, I probably won't be able to see the real situation underground."
Zhang Hao replied.
"Is it okay if I go?"
Yang Haoxuan hesitated slightly.
"It's most suitable for you to go. First of all, you don't have reporters around you, so you don't have to worry about revealing your secrets. Secondly, after all, I am also one of them. If that day comes, maybe I will ask others for help."
"Brother-in-law, isn't there a ready-made refuge in the consul's mansion? Why do you want to look far away?"
Zhang Hao smiled wryly: "Can't you even understand such a simple question? Your brother-in-law, the consul, can only serve two terms at most. It is absolutely wishful thinking to want to enter the sanctuary of the consul's mansion after retirement."
Although there is a shelter at home, just in case, the Cuban side must not give up, and prepare multiple retreats.
"Brother-in-law, you're more thoughtful." Yang Haoxuan scratched his head, then changed the topic: "Cough, brother-in-law, if that day really comes, can you bring our family with you?"
"Don't worry, with your brother-in-law and my status as a consul, plus a huge net worth, it's no problem to get a hundred or ten real admission tickets."
Zhang Hao immediately agreed.
Yang Haoxuan immediately showed joy, and then asked in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, how do they charge? How much is an admission ticket?"
Zhang Hao smiled slightly, and stretched out a finger directly.
"100 million?" Yang Haoxuan boldly guessed.
"It's 1000 million, and 100 million is not enough to fit between the teeth. Besides, the shelter is not small, but it is not big. It can only accommodate tens of thousands of people at most."
"It's really expensive!" Yang Haoxuan complained.
Zhang Hao explained casually: "The shelter not only has construction costs, but also needs to store various living materials, especially food. 1000 billion is really not expensive."
"Oh, it really is us ordinary people who suffer so much, we have no ability to protect ourselves, we can only follow the tide." Yang Haoxuan sighed.
"Okay." Zhang Hao patted his brother-in-law on the head, and quickly comforted him: "You don't have to worry about the money, it's all on me."
"Thank you brother-in-law."
Yang Haoxuan thanked him sincerely.
Zhang Hao waved his hand: "My family, you are welcome. I will ask your sister to transfer a sum of money to you later. It is inconvenient for me to come forward to buy the ticket, so I will leave it to you."
"Brother-in-law, I'll take care of things, don't worry."
Yang Haoxuan slapped his chest loudly.
"If you have any difficulties that cannot be solved, remember to call me." Zhang Hao finally urged.
"understood."
……
Early the next morning, Yang Haoxuan rushed to Disneyland with his bodyguards. Goodman, the general manager of the park, was so generous that he received him in person.
Unexpectedly, this man was about his age, but looked much more mature.
"Staff Yang, welcome!"
General Manager Goodman was all smiles.
Although the person in front of him was just an ordinary staff member of the consul's mansion, but he was also the consul's brother-in-law, so they didn't dare to neglect him at all.
"Principal Goodman, hello, excuse me..."
Yang Hao immediately greeted Ma Xuan.
Goodman hurriedly interrupted: "You are too polite, we are about the same age, just call me Goodman, that's what everyone usually calls me."
"OK, Goodman, I believe you should know the reason for my visit. In my opinion... let's stop dawdling and go directly to the underground?" Yang Haoxuan said straight to the point.
"No problem, this way please."
Goodman led the other party to the elevator entrance.
Yang Haoxuan left the two bodyguards on the ground, and under the leadership of Goodman, he came to the 16th floor underground, which can also be said to be the second-to-last floor.
As for the penultimate floor, there is a small commercial modular reactor with a power equivalent to that of an aircraft carrier, and it is also the only power source for the entire shelter.
"Staff Yang, this floor, including the upper two floors, is a warehouse area."
Looking at the seven or eight large warehouses in front of him, Yang Haoxuan couldn't help asking curiously: "Goodman, can you tell me what is in the warehouse?"
"Mainly some living supplies."
These are company secrets, and Goodman knows the rules, so he doesn't want to talk about them.
Yang Haoxuan was very knowledgeable, so he didn't continue to ask. The two walked around casually, and then came to the 13th floor.
"Goodman, you actually have a 13th floor here? It's really surprising."
As we all know, the number "13" in Western culture represents inauspiciousness, misfortune and evil. Many buildings do not have a 13th floor, which is somewhat similar to the 18th floor in Daxia architecture, which represents eighteen hells.
Goodman showed a smile, and then explained: "Using your big Xia saying, this is called fighting poison with poison, and it can also be regarded as whether it is extremely peaceful. Anyway, the reality is already so unbearable, how bad can it be?
And many times, the more you worry about something, the more likely that thing will happen, so why not face it calmly! "
"Murphy's Law?"
Yang Haoxuan blurted out subconsciously.
Goodman nodded: "Yes, it is Murphy's Law. I always firmly believe that as long as we don't worry about the end of the world, the end of the world will not come."
"Haha, I didn't expect Murphy's Law to be used in reverse." Yang Haoxuan couldn't help smiling.
