Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 533 536. On the Island (5)

Yongxing Island is the economic, military and political center of the three archipelagos of Xisha Islands, Nansha Islands and Zhongsha Islands. It is the seat of the Sansha Municipal People's Government and many superior dispatched agencies, municipal units and the Yongxing Working Committee Management Committee.

The island has an outstanding environment, with green plants and blue waves that complement each other, clean and open roads, and clusters of houses in a well-proportioned manner. There is no hustle and bustle of land towns, no pollution from factory smoke, and the air is exceptionally fresh and refreshing.

Vice-captain Du Chao picked up a handful of fine sand and rubbed it in his rough hands, saying: "The environment here is really good, it's like paradise on earth."

Zhu Changrong is a cadre from the urban area who supports poverty alleviation in the countryside. He, the village party secretary, is used to gold-plating. Unlike Ao Muyang and the other three, he is a serious city dweller.

He has experienced a lot and sighed: "I have traveled far and wide, and I have seen many islands, probably nothing like the ones here."

Du Chao was unconvinced and said: "Secretary Zhu, that's not the case. I heard that the Maldives is very beautiful."

Zhu Changrong nodded: "Yes, it is very beautiful, but there are only hotels and some entertainment facilities on the island. What do you think of this place?"

Several people scanned the island. There were many buildings on the small island, including government buildings, schools, banks, post offices, hospitals, shops, guest houses, libraries, weather stations, military camps, etc. It seemed that the production facilities and living facilities were complete.

"There is an airport over there." The taciturn Su Dapeng pointed to the end of the island and said.

Zhu Changrong said regretfully: "It's a pity that tourism here is not open to the public. Otherwise, I really want to bring my mother-in-law and baby here to have a look. It's so beautiful."

Not far from the dock, a square cement base stone monument appeared in front of them, with a line of large characters written on it: Monument to the Navy's Retake of the Paracel Islands.

The majestic stone tablet is bright red and vigorous, even if it is covered by the lush tung trees on both sides, it is still very eye-catching.

On the northeast side of the stone monument is the local government office building. There is a bright five-star red flag on the tower, fluttering in the wind.

They strolled for a while, and Du Chao suddenly pointed to the sea in the distance and said, "Have you noticed that ship? It has been wandering around Yongxing Island. It is a cruise ship. What is it doing? Isn't it a spy ship? ?”

There are warships, fishing boats, and transport ships on the island, but there are no cruise ships. As Ao Muyang knows, this place is not open to the outside world.

Zhu Changrong was a promising party member and was very active in this kind of thing. Just as a soldier came up with a basket, he pointed at the boat and explained the situation.

The dark-skinned soldier grinned, showing two hundred white teeth: "It's okay, tourist boat. Some travel agencies told tourists that they can see Yongxing Island. Of course they couldn't come up, so they drove the boat around the island twice. The tourists View the islands from the deck.”

"Isn't this illegal?"

"Isn't this a scam?"

Zhu Changrong and Ao Muyang spoke almost in unison. The previous question was raised by Zhu Changrong, and the following question came from Ao Muyang. The two people with different political consciousness have different concerns.

The soldiers answered their questions one by one: "It's not illegal, it's indeed a trap. The policy only doesn't allow ordinary people to land on the island. It doesn't say that it's not allowed to get close. This is considered a borderline."

After finishing speaking, he opened the white gauze on the basket, which contained some fruits, such as pineapple, banana, watermelon, Qiongzhong green orange, apple, star fruit and so on.

He let several people choose freely, and each person could take two kinds of fruits, which were prepared for the activity team on the island. Ao Muyang and others did not enter the house, so the soldiers brought them over.

Ao Muyang and others thanked him, and he chose a pineapple and a star fruit.

When he was in elementary school, he learned a text called "Drawing Star Fruit". Teacher Ao Zhisheng taught them at that time. He had a small carving of star fruit wood toy. When learning that lesson, although the fishermen's children did not actually see the real carving, Star fruit, but I do know what star fruit looks like.

Seeing the fresh star fruits at this time, Ao Muyang suddenly remembered the past.

But the star fruit is not very tasty...

After walking around the island for a while, Du Chao couldn't stand the heat. The sun began to rise, and the sunlight became hotter and hotter. Moreover, the ultraviolet rays here are very strong. It not only heats people's skin, but also causes pain!

Zhu Changrong took out a bottle of sunscreen spray from his bag and gave it to him: "Here, Lao Du, just spray it and it'll be fine."

Du Chao wiped his sweat and said, "No, what kind of wind and sun can a fisherman's man not endure? I just want to take a bath now, oh, it's so hot."

There is a canteen in front. Ao Muyang went over and bought a few bottles of iced drinks. The price was slightly more expensive than in Hongyang. He bought a bottle of Wahaha mineral water for three yuan.

Su Dapeng asked for a bottle of iced black tea. He unscrewed the cap and looked at it first, then grinned: "Ha, Captain Ao, just buy one less bottle. I won the prize."

Du Chao took it over and looked at it and was very happy: "One more bottle, you're lucky, Lao Su!"

The shop owner said lazily: "You can't exchange it on the island."

"Why?" Su Dapeng was dissatisfied.

The owner of the small shop said: "Because of the lack of supplies on the island, we have to bring supplies by boat every time. For snacks and drinks on the island, you have to go to the mainland to redeem them yourself."

Su Dapeng didn't talk much, but he had a stubborn temper. He said: "The logical relationship between this does not make sense. Your boss can also exchange it, and it is not like he only comes to replenish it every year."

The boss said with a smile: "Hey, let me tell you, if I exchange it for you, it means that a bottle of drink has been sent to the island with no profit value. In other words, the transport ship sent a bottle of drink to people for free. Drink, what about the transportation cost?”

Su Dapeng still wanted to reason, but Zhu Changrong stopped him and asked the boss: "Okay, boss, did you make this rule yourself or was it passed by the government?"

"The island is very rigid," the boss said. "If you don't believe it, ask the government and soldiers. They won't exchange it even if they drink such a drink."

In this case, there is nothing to say.

Su Dapeng threw away the bottle cap. It was not worth carrying such a bottle cap back to exchange for it.

Then after they walked away, Ao Muyang accidentally turned around and saw the boss jumping out of the counter and happily picking up the bottle caps...

I choose! Lao Ao was stimulated by this scene.

There was a canteen to entertain them at noon. There were many kinds of food in the canteen, but the food style was more like those in the Qiongdi area, and the taste was very bland. In Du Chao's words, it "has faded away from the smell of saliva."

Ao Muyang didn't want to offend his stomach. He was unhappy after eating convenience food for a few days on the ship, so he directly said to Zhu Changrong and others: "Let's go outside to eat barbecue and drink beer."

While shopping, they passed by a residential area, where there were many restaurants, including barbecues and hotpots.

Wang Youwei couldn't get used to the food here, so the four people excluded him again, and he gritted his teeth in anger.
