I can find treasures in my dreams.

Chapter 295 Daxia Nationality Certificate

The airport in Dongfang City is 40 kilometers away from the urban area.

This distance obviously leaves enough room for Oriental City to expand.

So in the future, the city will be quite large.

According to the information Anthony had learned, the population planned by the Daxia people for the Eastern City was said to be between 1000 million and 1500 million.

His first reaction to this number was doubt.

After all, the total population of many countries is only more than 10 million, and so many people gather in one city. Doesn’t this seem too exaggerated?
But after Anthony learned about the situation in Eastern Daxia, all his doubts disappeared in an instant.

Since the advent of the era of natural disasters, Daxia has become the only country in the world to achieve positive population growth.

Although it was only an increase of a few million, it was already very difficult.

The populations of other countries on the Blue Star, including the Jameni Federation, are all decreasing without exception.

There was also an island country with a population of tens of thousands that unfortunately suffered a disaster of sea poisonous mosquitoes, and all the people in the country died.

A conservative estimate is that there are no fewer than ten countries whose population has decreased by more than half, and even twenty is not impossible.

Amidst the miserable situation in the world, Dongfang Daxia is definitely the only "pure land" on Canglan Star.

Before the age of super powers.

There are a total of 22 cities in Daxia with a population of over million.

After the advent of the era of superpowers.

Because Daxia implemented an extremely large super migration plan, which migrated the population from remote areas to several urban agglomerations on a large scale, the number of cities with a population of over 48 million reached an astonishing .

The total population of the above cities alone exceeds 8 million.

Anthony learned about Daxia's immigration plan in detail and was really shocked.

What made him speechless the most was that no media in the Western Hemisphere reported on this largest immigration plan in the history of Canglan Star.

If he had not been commissioned to come to Dongfang City, he would probably not have known about the great feat accomplished by the people of Daxia.

Anthony thought that since the people of Daxia were able to build so many cities with a population of tens of millions, what difficulty would it be to build another Eastern city with a population of tens of millions in Shapdian?
"Buzz!"

Accompanied by very slight vibration.

The electric bus drove smoothly forward along the wide road.

Due to the recent heavy snowfall, although the people of Daxia regularly clear the snow on the roads, the roads are still covered with a thin layer of snow.

For driving safety reasons, the electric bus does not drive very fast, only about 40 kilometers per hour.

This means it takes a full hour to get from the airport to the city.

Anthony carefully observed the road through the car window and keenly noticed that this was a newly built highway.

It is also a main road with eight lanes in both directions, and the construction standards are quite high.

A question immediately popped up in his mind: "It's only been a month since the establishment of Dongfang City. The people of Daxia have built such a highway so quickly. Isn't the speed too fast?"

Especially during natural disasters and freezing weather, with the outdoor temperature hovering around minus 40 degrees Celsius at night, normal construction is almost impossible.

This question was quickly answered.

The passengers' discussions gave the answer.

"Daxia discovered a special limestone mine in Shapudian and developed a strong, quick-drying cement that can withstand extremely low temperatures. Even at temperatures as low as minus 80 degrees Celsius, it can completely solidify within a day, and its hardness is far greater than that of ordinary cement. This Oriental Avenue from the airport to the city is the first time this strong cement has been put into practical use."

"It seems that cement needs to be added with water to make concrete. The weather is so cold that the water will freeze as soon as it is added. How can construction be carried out?"

"The composition of this strong cement is different. I heard that it contains a special kind of calcium ion, so water won't freeze when it combines with it."

“What are calcium ions?”

"Haven't you ever heard of calcium supplements? All the bones in your body are mainly made of calcium."

When Anthony heard this, he couldn't help but muttered, "Damn media!"

The high-strength cement that can be used in construction at temperatures as low as minus 80 degrees Celsius is definitely a miracle in the engineering world, and it is also a super weapon against cold waves and natural disasters.

If this invention was born in the Western Hemisphere, such as the Gamenian Federation or the Southern Cross Alliance, the media of various countries would definitely report it.

But it was born in Daxia, and the media did not mention it at all, as if the strong cement did not exist at all.

How shameful!
at this time.

Anthony caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye of a few small black dots passing by not far from the road.

He quickly turned his head and took a look, only to find that they were several drones.

The other passengers also started talking.

“Is that a patrol drone?”

"That's right! The Daxia people have set up a drone patrol headquarters in Dongfang City and deployed more than 5,000 drones to patrol various locations in the city regularly. Dongfang Avenue is the main road, and drone swarms patrol every half an hour."

"There are so many drones deployed in one city. Dongfang City should be the safest place in the entire Shapudian."

“Daxia has stationed more than 100,000 troops in Shapudian and built eight military bases, which are safer.

"Ordinary people are not allowed to approach the military base. For ordinary Shapudian people, Dongfang City is the safest city. Since the people from Daxia came here, Dongfang City has become the city with the highest land prices in Shapudian. Almost all the wealthy people in Shapudian are considering moving to Dongfang City!"

"Tsk tsk! The Daxia people are really smart. They can reap an astronomical amount of wealth from the Shapudians with just one city."

"How much money can the Shapudians have? The Daxia people may not be interested in this little money. They have established a pioneering alliance and have plundered a huge amount of wealth of over one trillion Xia yuan just from the seat fees."

Anthony listened in silence.

In the era of natural disasters, his homeland, Yilait, became weaker and weaker, and the lives of ordinary people became increasingly difficult.

Although it is still nominally known as an old developed country, more and more people are not getting enough food.

The reason why he was willing to leave his homeland and go to Shapudian, thousands of kilometers away, was because it was becoming increasingly difficult to survive in the country.

However, Dongfang Daxia was able to go against the current, and its national strength grew stronger day by day.

In contrast, how could he not sigh in his heart?
As the bus continued to move forward, Anthony noticed another thing: there were more and more construction sites on both sides of the road.

Although the weather was freezing cold, you could still see many construction vehicles working and workers dressed warmly could be seen everywhere.

This scene gives people a feeling of vitality.

Anthony couldn't help but sigh again.

Scenes like this have not been seen in his home country of Elate for many years, and the infrastructure in various places is seriously aging.

However, during the cold wave disaster, Daxia was still able to maintain such large-scale infrastructure construction.

The discussions of the passengers around him drifted into Anthony's ears again.

"Is that a residential building? It's really huge. I think there are at least a hundred of them. But they're not very tall. I think they only have six floors."

"It looks like there are six floors from the outside, but in fact, there are more than six. This is a semi-buried residential building specially designed by the Daxia people to deal with natural disasters. There are six floors above ground and six floors below ground, which adds up to twelve floors."

"Living underground is dark and damp? Why would anyone want to live there?"

"Aren't the people of Daxia smarter than you? Now that a cold wave is raging, the temperature underground is much higher than on the surface. Living underground is actually much warmer and safer. Daxia has built many such residential buildings, and many people are rushing to live underground. If you encounter an emergency, the underground floors are the most suitable shelters."

Anthony nodded slightly.

Before the Age of Natural Disasters, many wealthy people spent huge sums of money to build shelters with complete facilities, all of which were located underground.

In terms of safety, underground is indeed much safer than on the ground, so the Daxia people are right. Due to the fatigue from the long flight and the sufficient heating in the bus, Anthony fell asleep unconsciously.

I don’t know how long it took.

He felt someone tapping his shoulders a few times and woke up immediately.

Anthony didn't even open his eyes, his first reaction was to reach for the suitcase.

This is the instinct of every Elite person.

The moment his fingertips touched the suitcase, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Ok!

Nothing is lost!
Anthony opened his eyes, glanced out the window, and realized that the bus had arrived.

He turned around and immediately saw the male passenger next to him looking at him speechlessly.

The male passenger pointed out the window and said in a subtle tone: "This is the Eastern City of the Daxia people. It's very safe here. You don't need to be so nervous."

Anthony smiled awkwardly: "Thank you!"

The male passenger nodded to him and turned to walk towards the front door of the bus.

Anthony still sat there without getting up.

He stared at the back of the male passenger and muttered, "'The Eastern City of the Daxia People'?"

Judging from his appearance, the male passenger is most likely a Shapodian.

Although Dongfang City is located on Shapudian’s land, the people of Shapudian believe that it is a city of the Daxia people.

This is very interesting.

Anthony thought to himself, "Are so many Shapudians eager to get the Daxia nationality certificate and become real Daxia people?"

He enjoyed the warmth of the heater for more than ten seconds, until there were only two people left in the bus, then he reluctantly stood up and walked towards the door.

The moment you get off the car.

"Woo~"

The cold wind howled by.

Anthony shuddered violently several times.

He cursed and walked quickly towards the exit of the parking lot.

five minutes later.

Anthony finally understood why the male passenger said "This is the Eastern City of the Daxia people."

Because signs with Daxia characters can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys here.

There was only about half of the sign, with Shapdian characters written in small letters at the bottom.

Anthony also discovered that although Oriental City was a brand new city, the number of people here far exceeded his expectations.

Of the faces he saw, about 70% were Shapodians, 20% were Daxia people, and the rest were from various countries.

He even saw several white faces.

But Anthony didn't have time to chat with the other party. He was very sleepy and planned to go directly to the hotel he had booked.

Before the Age of Disasters.

Booking a hotel anywhere in the world is a very simple thing and can be easily done with a mobile app.

After the Age of Disasters.

This matter has become not so simple. The vast majority of hotels have gone "offline" for various reasons.

Either the hotel simply went bankrupt, or there was a problem with the local network, or the platform disappeared.

Fortunately, Dongfang City is controlled by Daxia, which has always maintained a fairly stable order, so it is very convenient to book a hotel here.

soon.

Anthony hailed a taxi.

He had just sat in the car when he heard the driver ask, "Sir, do you have a Daxia national ID? If you have one, you can get a 95% discount on the taxi."

Anthony was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I am from Yilait and I don't have a Daxia national ID card."

The driver let out an "Oh" and stepped on the accelerator directly, steering the vehicle forward.

Anthony's eyes flickered.

How could he not understand that this was another annoying "Daxia first"?

ten minutes later.

Arrived at the hotel.

Anthony walked to the front desk and said, "I have a reservation."

The front desk immediately asked, "Do you have a Daxia national ID card?"

Anthony asked curiously, "What benefits does the Daxia National ID have?"

The front desk clerk quickly said, "A 95% discount on accommodation, a 9% discount on meals, and free meal delivery to your room. If you don't have a Daxia national ID, there will be an additional charge for meal delivery."

Anthony couldn't help but ask, "Why do people with Daxia ID cards get discounts on transportation and accommodation here? It's obvious that you're making less money."

The front desk clerk seemed to have answered this question more than once, and answered without hesitation: "The accommodation fee is indeed less, but the government will give us a tax reduction, and there will be naturalization points. If you accumulate enough points, you will be given a naturalization quota."

Anthony said to himself, "It is true."

He had originally guessed that there was probably a complete system behind the Daxia priority strategy.

The front desk clerk's words confirmed his guess.

In this way, the Daxia people systematically created a society where "Daxia people are superior to others" to attract more people to join Daxia.

When these people work hard for naturalization points, their minds have been brainwashed little by little.

Anthony still had a question in his heart: "Daxia already has a population of 1.8 billion. Do they think it's too few people?"

He found it hard to understand.

After entering the room.

Anthony put down his suitcase and prepared to go to the bathroom to take a shower.

He walked to the bathroom door and saw a piece of paper on the door with a few words written on it:
“Due to high energy costs, hot water for bathing is free for 10 minutes, and an additional charge of 2 yuan per minute will be incurred over the period.

"With a Daxia nationality card, you can get 15 minutes of free hot water."

Anthony felt numb.

Why are there Daxia nationality certificates everywhere?!

He turned on the faucet, feeling the warmth of the hot water on his skin, and for the first time he had an urge to get a Daxia citizenship card.

After all, the Daxia National ID card has so many benefits that it is really hard not to want it.
