Chapter 43: Welcome to Yan Guo Kingdom

Planes landed incessantly on Saipan, while workers lined up at the port to board. The island's port had never seen such excitement.

Near the port, a middle-aged white man with a slightly chubby body, wearing shorts, sat on a chair in front of a beverage stall, watching the scene with great excitement.

The man sitting in front of him said, "Mark, this island should be yours."

Mark Williams smiled and replied, "I don't have the ability to build a country. Chen is really amazing. You know, when he told me he was going to build a country, I didn't believe him, but when I saw the seriousness in his eyes, for some reason , I felt like this young man could really do it. And he proved himself right."

The man said, "Amazing."

"Yes, it's really unbelievable."

Williams exclaimed, "In just three months, he truly built a country."

As the first to discover the island, his first reaction was to sell it.

The young man, coming from China, announced to the world that he would build a new nation on the island.

How crazy!

But he really did it.

….

The boat was full of workers. The announcer's voice echoed from all corners: "The boat is about to leave! Destination: Yan Guo. Expected arrival in 10 hours."

The message was transmitted in several languages: Mandarin, English, Vietnamese, Thai and others.

And then, the boat left.

Some young people held up their cell phones, capturing images of the scenery on board, of Saipan Island receding into the distance, and sharing it all on social media.

….

The internet was flooded with news about the Yan Guo Nation once again.

But this time, what dominated social media was the arrival of the first group of migrant workers in Yan Guo.

The videos and captions they shared were not carefully edited, they were simple and ordinary.

But these ordinary and simple videos represented each of them as ordinary people.

#The first group of migrant workers from Yan Guo Nation is about to arrive#

"I still haven't received a response to the email!"

"It's been a long time, there are only 30,000 vacancies, if I don't get the answer now, I have no chance."

"Damn, everyone has already boarded, why hasn't my tourist visa come out yet?"

"Workers, remember to go live when you get there."

"They probably won't arrive until the morning, right?"

"Transportation in Yan Guo Kingdom is still not very good, we can only go by boat, when will they open flights?"

"Someone is doing a live stream, my God, the atmosphere on the ferry is incredible, there are even drinks and snacks."

"Where is it, where is it?"

"Search for [Worker Xiao Wu] and you will see."

….

On the ferry:

Xiao Wu started a live broadcast.

Initially, his intention was just to share a moment from everyday life, but a group of followers encouraged him to broadcast.

Being her first time broadcasting live, Xiao Wu was met with a flood of viewers, with over a thousand people joining in within a matter of minutes, and the number still continued to rise rapidly.

"Is the streamer on a ferry?", some asked in the comments. "Show me what the ferry is like!" others requested.

Xiao Wu, holding her cell phone, walked along the ferry as she explained, "Yes, I'm on a ferry. Look, there are even all-you-can-eat snacks and drinks, all paid for by the company. Everyone here, like me, is on our way to Yan Guo Nation to work."

"Damn, everything is at ease!" exclaimed the spectators. "How much is the ferry ticket?"

Xiao Wu shakes her head: "It's free."

"Wait, what do you mean it's all free?", some asked. "It's probably free for workers, but for tourists it must be paid for," others speculated.

"In this case, working at Yan Guo Nation seems to be very advantageous. A one-way ticket costs less than 277 dollars, and even if you want to go back, it shouldn't be too expensive", commented some.

"It really seems advantageous, it's a shame I didn't get the job", lamented others.

Xiao Wu announces: "Guys, I need to end the broadcast now, my cell phone is almost out of battery. As soon as I can, I will do another live to show the factory location and the dormitory."

"Don't forget to do the live when you arrive!", ask viewers. "Show us what the factory dormitory is like!"

….

On the island, Chen Yang was meticulously organizing the newly compiled tax laws.

Checking his watch, he saw that it was noon. The first group of workers should be arriving any moment. It was expected that, in three to four days, everyone would be at their posts.

As night fell in the Yan Guo Nation, around ten o'clock, it was possible to see boats approaching the coast in the distance. On board, many passengers were sleeping, but with the sound of the loudspeaker, everyone gradually woke up.

"Are we there?"

"There is the Yan Guo Nation! I can see the harbor lights!"

Some got up and headed to the deck, facing the grandeur of Yan Guo Harbor.

"What a huge port!"

"So this is the Yan Guo Nation?"

Although they had already witnessed everything in Chen Yang's live broadcasts, the actual experience was completely different.

"Look, that cruise!"

Exclaimed someone loudly. Everyone looked in the indicated direction and saw, about 200 meters away in the sea, a huge cruise ship anchored.

It was the luxurious super-quantum cruise ship built by the Yan Guo nation with an investment of nearly 13 billion!

Under the darkness of the night, the cruise shined brightly, revealing its colossal outline like a beacon in the immensity.

Coming face to face with a ship of such magnitude awakened in each person a feeling of deep admiration.

And on the upper deck of the cruise, in a point inaccessible to the eyes of passengers, a figure observed everything: Chen Yang.

Gazing at the boats arriving at the port, Chen Yang smiled slightly and muttered, "Welcome to Yan Guo Nation."
