Chapitre 262: Alpha Base

Alaska, a wasteland in the northwest corner of North America that covered an area of 1,710,000 square kilometers and a population of 650,000. Even on the hottest day, the temperature was not over twenty-six degree Celsius. Summer had no ties with this land, and flourishing was the last word anyone would describe the place as.

In 1867, when the Russians sold Alaska to the Americans for 7,200,000 dollars, they never thought that the place was hiding a shocking amount of oil. A land over 1,710,000 square kilometers sold at a price of 7,200,000 dollars. It was most likely the best deal anyone could hope for. It was less than a day's profit from the oil supplied by Alaska.

When Xia Fei's Quantum Holdings started promoting clean, new energy to the world, the oil fields in Alaska had lost their value; hence, the population had decreased every year.
