Throughout December, the share prices of Coke Bakery and Xinke Seaweed rose gratifyingly, both increasing by more than double. By the end of the month, Xu Dong was the richest man in Daxia.

The change of the richest man made Xu Dong famous for a while.

But then he was overshadowed by an international news.

After more than a year of tug-of-war, the European coalition finally achieved a phased victory, and Yusle was forced to withdraw from the capital and retreat to Baghdad.

In order to curb the attack of the European coalition.

Yusle did not hesitate to issue a nuclear threat.

For a time, the situation suddenly became tense.

Fortunately, it was midwinter at this time. It was estimated that due to insufficient logistical support, the European coalition did not pursue the victory. The two sides sat down at the negotiation table again and finally reached a three-month ceasefire agreement.

...

In the blink of an eye, the new year has arrived again.

On January 2, 2034 of the Daxia calendar, after a full year of "closed-door training", the "Meta World" is finally going to reappear.

As a major shareholder, Xu Dong naturally received an invitation to the press conference.

The children were very excited.

After playing "Metaworld", playing other games is almost boring.

"Dad, do you want to go to Qiongzhou?"

Xiaobao asked.

The venue of this press conference is the headquarters of the new company: Coconut City, the capital of Qiongzhou.

"Of course I have to go. Dad has invested a lot of money in this. How can I feel at ease if I don't take a look?"

Xu Dong nodded.

"Can you take me with you?"

Xiaobao pleaded.

Yang Lina immediately objected: "Why are you going to join in the fun? Don't forget that you still have to go to school?"

"Mom, I can take a half-month leave. Anyway, I have already self-studied the high school courses, and I guarantee that I can get the first place in the final exam."

Yang Lina didn't know whether she should agree.

After all, Xiaobao is different from ordinary children. The traditional education method is somewhat inappropriate. She can only give the decision-making power to her husband, who is more knowledgeable than herself.

"Ahem!" Xu Dong coughed, "It's good to take him to see the world. I'll go to school to ask for leave for him tomorrow."

Xiaobao has a strong learning ability. It's good to let him get in touch with advanced technology. Maybe the Xu family can also produce a "Mask".

"Thank you, Dad, thank you, Mom!"

Xiaobao was so happy that he almost jumped up.

Dabao and Erbao on the side could only envy him. They were self-aware. Even if the brothers asked, their parents would not agree.

As for the sisters Keke, the university teaching was strict, so it was even more impossible for them to ask for leave casually.

So, the matter was settled.

Eight days later, the "Lina" arrived in Coconut City smoothly.

It was the first time for the father and son to set foot on this land. Unlike what they imagined, Qiongzhou was not only not dilapidated, but also seemed a little too prosperous.

Especially in the capital Coconut City, the whole city was full of high-rise buildings and bright lights. Whether it was the number of people or the size of the city, it was not inferior to Sydney at all.

It seems that the previous flood did not leave any traces here.

After checking into the hotel, Xu Dong planned to take his youngest son out for a walk. The good thing about super yachts is that they can get enough rest during the trip.

"Mr. Xu, do you need to drive?"

Zhou Yinsheng asked.

Xu Dong waved his hand: "No, just walk around."

"There is a pedestrian street two hundred meters ahead of us, why don't we go there?"

Zhou Yinsheng suggested.

Long before going ashore, he had figured out the environment near the hotel where he was staying.

"Okay, let's go there!"

In less than ten minutes, the group walked to the entrance of the pedestrian street.

There was a barbecue restaurant at the entrance. The area was not large, but the door was crowded with customers queuing. Xu Dong stopped immediately when he smelled the aroma of meat coming from inside.

It was not that he was greedy for meat.

But this restaurant brought back his memories. Speaking of which, he hadn't eaten roasted rat meat for more than ten years. He didn't expect to have the luck to encounter it today.

"Lao Zhou, Xiao Chen, I'm treating you today, you two are in for a treat."

Xiao Bao looked at the sign on the store and said in surprise:

"Dad, you don't want to eat rats, do you?"

Although he had not seen rats many times since he was a child, humans are born with a dislike for rats and will avoid them when they see them.

Xu Dong laughed and said, "Son, what's so scary about rats? Dad guarantees that you will want to eat them again after eating them for the first time."

Xiao Bao showed a curious look.

Where there is a queue, there must be scalpers. After spending 100 yuan, the four of them quickly got a seat. Since the store is small, all customers sit at the same table.

Xu Dong ordered 20 roasted rats in one go.

An uncle opposite hurriedly reminded him, "Hey, brother, you have to read the menu carefully. One roasted rat is 1,000 yuan. Don't miss a zero."

"20,000 yuan is 20,000 yuan. It's a rare visit to Coconut City, so I want to eat enough."

Xu Dong explained with a smile.

"My last name is Jin, what's your last name? Where are you from?"

"My last name is Xu. We are from Sydney and we just got off the ship today."

Old Jin immediately praised: "So it's Sydney. You have endless coal over there. It's really a treasure land, much better than our Coconut City."

"Your place is not bad either!"

Xu Dong echoed.

"It can't be compared. We are just such a tiny place. We don't have any resources. We just benefit from the policies."

Old Jin said modestly.

"Oh? What policy?" Xu Dong asked curiously,

"Brother Xu, haven't you heard about it?"

Xu Dong shook his head: "No, to be honest, this is our first time in Qiongzhou."

"No wonder, in fact, this rumor is only spread within our Qiongzhou, and not many people outside know about it."

"Brother Jin, tell me quickly?"

Xu Dong urged.

"The thing is, in recent years, the authorities have been trying to build our Qiongzhou into a space center, a science and technology center, and a cultural center.

I'm not talking nonsense. You can find relevant documents on the official website. New policies are introduced every month, as if they are free."

Old Jin took a bite of rat meat and said mysteriously:

"Now everyone is speculating that the authorities may intend to move the capital to our side, otherwise they would not have given so many policies and moved hundreds of research institutes and several famous universities here."

"Move the capital?"

Xu Dong expressed serious doubts.

The capital has a population of over 100 million, and moving the capital is not an easy task.

Xiaobao took the opportunity to interrupt and said, "Uncle Jin, Qiongzhou is too far south, how can it be the capital of a country?"

"Brother, this is your son, right?"

"Our youngest son, nicknamed Xiaobao, just entered the second year of high school this year."

Xu Dong introduced.

Old Jin said with interest, "Xiaobao, uncle will test you, what is the relationship between Daxia and Yahu?"
