Chapter 240: Industrial City Abito (2)
As the saying goes, "Rome wasn't built in a day."
The city of Avito, which had barely started to be built, had no buildings erected yet.
The workers' accommodations were nothing more than hastily set-up tents on a barren land, and everywhere, weeds and stones scattered around.
Thinking about building a city in such a place made me feel somewhat overwhelmed.
While I was absentmindedly looking around, Sebastian called out to me.
“It’s quite touching to think that a city is going to be built in a place like this.”
“Yeah, honestly, sometimes I wonder if I’ve been too reckless with this idea.”
Every investment and business venture in this world has a formula.
No matter how boldly you begin, if you succeed, it becomes a revolution; if you fail, you become the subject of ridicule.
Take the example of the honorary Martian, the Harvard dropout obsessed with computers.
Those folks are praised as wise because their ventures succeeded, but if they failed...
The honorary Martian would be a fool who worked 100 hours a week with no results, and the Harvard dropout would be a disgrace for wasting his life.
