The next day, Shen Mengzhu officially started her work.
What she did in the beginning was still familiarizing herself with Chu Chen's plan. In addition, she also took the initiative to cooperate with the construction of the power station.
With her help, some things became simple.
For example, the problem of fixing the turbine unit, which was the biggest headache for Engineer Huang, was easily solved after Shen Mengzhu took action.
This also sped up the progress of the power station.
It would be of great significance to Sea Turtle Island if the power station could be built faster.
Like now, it was dark at night.
Fortunately, there were many moons in the island world. The moonlight at night was very bright.
However, it could not replace electricity.
After all, other than lighting, electricity was also the foundation of all industries.
Many tools could not be used without electricity.
On the small island where bricks were mined, the workers used small oil and gas engines.
In other words, it could be driven directly by flammable ice, which could meet the needs of the workers.
Well, the technology of using flammable ice on Earth was quite mature. Naturally, there was conversion equipment in those oil-gas generators, which was much more expensive than ordinary electric generators.
.................................
Chu Chen was still busy, and he still needed to cooperate with many things.
Wei Tong should be the busiest. Other than constantly recruiting people, this little girl was also responsible for tabulating the daily expenditure details. From time to time, she would also have to take up the part-time management and dispatch tasks. Occasionally, Chu Chen would even assign her some miscellaneous tasks.
Well, the little girl was really busy.
However, she didn't make a sound of pain or complain, which made Chu Chen look at her in a different light.
.............................
On the Internet, the video was still spreading. It was said that it had already become popular overseas.
Chu Chen didn't pay too much attention to it.
On this day, when Chu Chen was choosing an island, the old man who had advised Chu Chen not to choose Sea Turtle Island called him.
This old man had treated Chu Chen quite well in school.
Initially, he had tried to persuade Chu Chen for his own good.
In this call, the old man first congratulated Chu Chen, then admitted that he had misjudged Chu Chen. Chu Chen was still the student he was most proud of.
Then, he told Chu Chen that Chu Chen's school was now surrounded by people every day. A large number of reporters surrounded the school. Other than that, there were also some people who made a living by taking videos.
Before Chu Chen transmigrated, these people were the so-called internet celebrities.
In this world, such people naturally existed. Their numbers were not too many, but they were not too few either. Wherever there was a hot spot, they would run.
These people wanted to come to Sea Turtle Island, but Chu Chen ignored them.
.
In the beginning, the school had welcomed these people, but later on, they found that these people were too annoying and affected the normal teaching. Therefore, the old man called this time to ask Chu Chen, the school was preparing to close the school and would not accept any interviews or filming. Was it possible?
Chu Chen pondered for a moment and supported the school's decision.
The school could make their own decisions, but they were willing to consult Chu Chen's opinion. This was a sign of respect for Chu Chen, and Chu Chen would naturally support the school.
..............................
After the school was closed, those people had no place to go. They ran around like headless flies. They actually went to the orphanage where Chu Chen used to stay, causing the orphanage to have no choice but to close.
"These fellows…"
After receiving the news, Chu Chen felt a headache coming on.
Fame could bring many benefits, but there were also some annoying things, just like these people.
"Since these people want to take pictures, let them do it. Anyway, Sea Turtle Island is still under construction, so we can't take any pictures.”
Chu Chen had an idea.
He could earn a sum of money from these people. The current flammable ice mine was already earning close to a million yuan for Chu Chen every day.
However, the cost was also quite high.
It could be said that he spent money like water.
It was easy to imagine how much money it would cost to build such a large Sea Turtle Island into what Chu Chen wanted.
Not to mention that there was also an island that was going to be built into a holiday resort.
It also required a lot of money!
Just think about the investments in the tourist areas before transmigration.
Therefore, it would not be bad if he could earn a sum of money from these people.
Didn't these people want to bid on Sea Turtle Island?
Give them a chance, but…He had to get the money!
....................................
Thus, Chu Chen asked Wei Tong to post a recruitment post. However, this time, they were hiring security guards, and only Gaoping City people were required.
Interestingly, among the people who signed up, there were actually quite a number of foreign reporters disguised as reporters. They probably wanted to use this opportunity to sneak into the island.
However, Wei Tong found out and eliminated them all.
The recruitment in the island world was noticed as soon as it was released, and a large number of people applied.
After all, the salary on Earth Star was only 50 to 70 yuan a day, while the average salary in the island world was around 200 yuan. The difference was too big.
Everyone knew how to choose.
.
That afternoon, the dozens of security guards that Chu Chen had hired arrived.
Wei Tong did seem to have the resources. Among the security guards that Chu Chen had recruited, there were some veterans who were not only skilled but also had good character.
It was just right.
After the security guards arrived, Chu Chen arranged for some security guards to protect the female workers 'living and working areas.
Then, Chu Chen released the authority to enter Sea Turtle Island, but…Unless there was a work permit, everyone else would be charged 10,000 yuan per entry, and they could only stay for one hour each time. Moreover, after entering, they had to follow the management rules of Sea Turtle Island. They were not allowed to affect the work of the workers inside, and they were not allowed to take photos in places where they were not allowed to take photos.
This method was usually used by some tourist islands to enter the island.
As long as one paid and went through identification, they could enter the tourist island directly.
The tickets to some famous tourist islands were not cheap.
For example, there was a ring-shaped tourist island with a circle of white sandy beach. It was a vacation resort. Entering it would cost 500 yuan per day, and staying there for a day would cost 500 yuan for every additional day. Other expenses would also have to be paid for by oneself.
Although the price wasn't cheap, there was an endless stream of people going, and it was often full.
There weren't many tourist islands that could reach this level. Ordinary tourist islands only had tickets of tens to 100 yuan. As long as an ordinary family had a labor force working in the island world, they could afford it.
.
"Yes, I still have to set a restriction…Adepts can't enter."
Thinking of the Level-6 mutant who wanted to study Sea Turtle Island, Chu Chen set another restriction.
Almost all superpowered people had their identities verified. After this restriction was set, the level-six superpowered person or other people who wanted to study Sea Turtle Island couldn't enter.
As for the others, there was no problem.
In an hour, with the security guards watching, it was fine to take videos while it was popular, but it was impossible to know any secrets of Sea Turtle Island!
Actually, other than the system, there were not many secrets.
..............................
"Eh, Old Chen, Chu Chen's authority over Sea Turtle Island has been released.”
"It's true…Damn, he actually wants 10,000 yuan to enter the island? Moreover, they could only stay on the island for an hour at a time. It was too expensive.”
"Ten thousand? Let me think…With the popularity of Sea Turtle Island now, we'll definitely earn more than ten thousand yuan after we go in.”
“.....”
The moment Chu Chen's authority changed, it was noticed by some people.
These people excitedly went to the teleportation station, wanting to enter Sea Turtle Island.
However, the 10,000 yuan entrance fee instantly made many people complain.
After complaining, whether it was the reporters or the group of people who made a living by filming videos, they all chose to enter.
Therefore, Sea Turtle Island welcomed its first batch of special 'visitors'.
..................................
"Wow, is this Sea Turtle Island? It's too big."
"Wow, wow, look, this sea turtle's head is as big as a mountain..."
“.....”
The people who came in were all shocked by Sea Turtle Island, and even the heartache of spending 10,000 yuan lessened a lot.
There were still reporters who tried to interview Chu Chen, but Chu Chen would not give them the chance.
In addition, these people were not allowed to enter the area where the female workers worked. As long as they did not affect the workers 'work, there were no restrictions.
He couldn't film anything now.
Although they couldn't capture anything, Sea Turtle Island was already very popular. The videos or live broadcasts of these people still attracted a lot of people's attention on the Internet, which increased the attention of Sea Turtle Island to another level.
........
Of course, Chu Chen didn't expect that there would be too many people on the first day.
There were more than 800 of them.
In just one day, he had contributed more than eight million to Chu Chen.
It was like robbing money!
Chu Chen couldn't help but sigh. Sometimes, popularity was indeed a good thing.
Moreover, none of the people who came in felt cheated.
After all, in their opinion, the profits they gained from entering Sea Turtle Island this time were worth 10,000 yuan.
In other words, Chu Chen had successfully snatched more than eight million from them, and these people were still happy.
To Chu Chen, he had an additional eight million yuan in construction funds.
but...
"Island Master, can you limit the number of people entering the island every day? There are too many of them and it will affect my management.”
Wei Tong ran over to complain to Chu Chen.
"Hang in there. It'll only be a few days. The number of people will slowly decrease.”
Chu Chen said.
The popularity came quickly, but it would also drop quickly. Chu Chen did not expect to earn too much money from this. The development of his island was the foundation.
However, since he had encountered them, and these people were willing to give him money, Chu Chen would feel bad if he didn't rip them off.
..................................
Chu Chen had underestimated the power of popularity and the number of people in this world.
In the next half a month, the construction of Sea Turtle Island was still in full swing. Many people were willing to pay 10,000 yuan to enter the island every day.
Although the number was gradually decreasing, after half a month, there were still hundreds of people coming from all over the world every day.
This world had more people, so the dividends brought by the population were naturally more.
.
Within half a month, Chu Chen had received more than 50 million yuan just by collecting 10,000 yuan.
In other words, in half a month, more than 5,000 people had paid to enter Sea Turtle Island.
It was even more profitable than the flammable ice mine.
Of course, the flammable ice mine could provide Chu Chen with a steady stream of money for decades. Moreover, as the mining volume continued to increase, the daily income would also increase. Naturally, it was incomparable to the money earned from this wave of popularity.
Interestingly, there were still some people who felt that it was a scam. They spread the news that Chu Chen had taken 10,000 yuan to enter the island on the Internet.
However…
Not many people criticized Chu Chen. Instead, they felt that Chu Chen's move was amazing. Some people felt that Chu Chen wasn't ruthless enough and should have slaughtered him more ruthlessly.
After these people posted some videos of Sea Turtle Island on the Internet, it further increased the popularity of Chu Chen and Sea Turtle Island.
This was a good thing for Chu Chen.
This way, after his second island was built into a tourist island, he would not have to worry about the source of tourists at all!
That would also bring Chu Chen a steady stream of funds.
..........................................
Half a month had passed, but Chu Chen's Sea Turtle Island was still in full swing.
Shen Mengzhu was still very busy with work every day. Under her supervision, Chu Chen's two castles had already started construction, and the foundations had already been laid.
With her construction ability, the foundation of the castle was quite stable. It was built along the gaps of the turtle shell. Even if there was a huge wave, as long as it was not a huge wave like the " moon gathering ", there would be no problem.
Moreover, with Shen Mengzhu around, the construction speed became relatively fast.
The speed of castle construction was now limited by the materials, which were stone bricks.
However, as the number of workers Chu Chen recruited increased, the speed at which he mined the bricks also increased.
In order to meet the demand, Chu Chen recruited another 10 earth ability users to cooperate with the stone brick mining.
This time, the recruitment went quite smoothly. Those ability users were all willing to work on Chu Chen's Sea Turtle Island.
Therefore, the construction proceeded smoothly.
In addition, after half a month, another construction project had already shown results.
That was, Chu Chen's power station was finally completed!
