Crown Prince of Billions: Crafting the Ultimate Prosperous Realm

Reborn as the crown prince of a poverty-stricken island nation in the South Seas, Shō Unkai knew that if he failed to grow the economy, the throne would vanish beneath him. He had no choice but to make his people richer. Gifted with future knowledge and a powerful system, the tycoon prince poured heart and soul into rebuilding. In just a few short years, the microstate’s GDP soared into the clouds. Cancer-curing medicine and revolutionary whitening and augmentation pills turned into the hottest commodities on Earth, coveted by women everywhere. He designed a blockbuster “Tomb Raider Series” theme park that instantly became the planet’s most visited attraction. Under his leadership the little country rose to be the globe’s pharmaceutical summit, the largest hub for anime, gaming, and pop culture, and the tourism capital of the world, drawing hundreds of millions of visitors each year. Shō Unkai splurged on defense with equal bravado. A single combined-arms brigade costs twenty billion? Buy it, bring me ten. A ten-thousand-ton guided-missile destroyer costs six and a half billion? Fine, I’ll take twenty. A fifth-generation fighter runs over one hundred million each? Here’s one hundred billion, load my jets and leave. His extravagant spending made even Middle-Eastern oil magnates break into a cold sweat, while the Dragon Kingdom cried out in envy—this was the ultimate rich tyrant.
