The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 128

Stephen still could not fully understand Ethan's plan.

The city's development? They were meant to highlight the city's beautiful aquatic sceneries and also prevent the landscape from being ruined. After all, if the environment. gets destroyed, what good would hotels and resorts be if no tourists came?

Limiting the types of aquatic life farmed? It was because the water in the city was only suitable for farming local species. If non-native species were introduced, it would also destroy the local ecosystem, resulting in poor quality and quantity of seafood. Due to that, Ethan also forbade people to release non-native species into the waters of Aqua City.

As to limiting other companies from expanding locally? It was because he wanted to protect the forest of the city.

Many companies saw the potential in the area's hydroelectric resources and population. They wanted to set up factories there, where they could dump untreated waste into the rivers and offer jobs to the people.

A lot of the local fishermen would think, "Why not work there? I can feed the fish in the morning, then head to work at the factory."

However, as the factories polluted the environment and people realized that the fishing industry could no longer feed their families, they would choose to work in factories to make a living.

Then, the very thing that made the town unique would disappear entirely. The clear rivers would also be polluted.
