Xianyuan Farm
Chapter 1110 Arrival at Bermuda Islands
A small episode passed quietly like this.
In the following days, Gu Hongyu lived a very fulfilling life. While receiving training during the day, he also dealt with some work matters, and at night he had to enter the Xianyuan space to accept the supervision of the old monster and Daoist Gu. , even the two little guys rarely take them out to play. Fortunately, there is a considerate Mei Ning behind her.
Last time, Gu Hongyu requested that the planned construction of Qing Town be accelerated. In the two months since experts arrived in Honghu Village, Qing Town has once again undergone rapid changes. Now both tourists and villagers are spreading the word "Qing Town Speed" That’s it!
With the end of the hot summer, Chinese senior officials also determined the specific time for the scientific expedition team to leave for Bermuda.
In mid-September, school-age children and teenagers have started school for a while. Gu Hongyu, Professor Qin and their team are also getting ready to go to Bermuda on September 18th.
He reluctantly said goodbye to his family, perhaps because he had strong confidence in Gu Hongyu's abilities, or because he had been separated many times, his family was less worried about Gu Hongyu's departure, and his two children were still pestering him. I’m asking for a gift back!
Bermuda is a transliteration from Hong Kong and Taiwan, English r, also known as Bermuda Islands, formerly known as Somers Island.
It is located in the North Atlantic Ocean at latitude 32°14' to 32°25' north and longitude 64°38' to 64°53' west. It is about 900 kilometers away from North America and about 1100 nautical miles northeast of Miami, Florida on the east coast of the United States and Nova Scotia, Canada. It is about 840 nautical miles southeast of Halifax, Shepard.
Bermuda is the oldest British self-governing overseas territory. The United Nations Decolonization Committee has listed it as one of the 16 non-self-governing territories in the world since 1945. In 1968, Bermuda obtained internal autonomy. The Governor represents the Queen of the United Kingdom through the Governor's Council. In charge of foreign affairs, defense and internal security, diplomacy is controlled by the United Kingdom.
Putting aside the scary factor of the Bermuda Triangle, Bermuda is actually a very desirable holiday destination.
Although the archipelago has only 839 acres of arable land, which mainly grows vegetables, citrus, bananas, etc., and is basically self-sufficient in milk and eggs, 80% of the remaining commodities are imported. The main export commodities here are cosmetics and flowers.
However, due to Bermuda's stable political situation, no foreign exchange controls, and strict compliance with financial secrecy laws, the islands have become one of the world's largest offshore financial and commercial centers, with more than 3,200 employees since 1999.
The insurance industry here is quite developed, accounting for approximately 13% of the world's accident insurance reinsurance volume. In 1996, insurance business income reached 19.8 billion Bermudian dollars. The company registration industry has developed strongly, with a growth rate of 9.5% in 2000. Most of them are insurance companies, followed by trading companies, shipping groups, and personal investment companies. Together with the Cayman Islands, the Islands are known as one of the three offshore tax havens.
Bermuda is also the fifth largest ship registry in the world.
After changing flights from the United States, Professor Gu Hongyu and Professor Qin finally arrived at Kendley Field Airport in Bermuda on a sunny afternoon. This is also the only international airport in Bermuda, with only flights to the United Kingdom and the United States. , so this is also the reason why Gu Hongyu and the others will transfer from the United States.
The Bermuda Islands are composed of 7 main islands and more than 150 small islands and reef groups, distributed in a fishhook shape, with Bermuda being the largest island. Only 20 islands are inhabited, and the average annual temperature is 21°C.
In terms of population, Bermuda has only about 70,000 people, with 54.8% black, 34.1% white, and 6.4% mixed race.
The average annual rainfall here is about 1500 mm. It is one of the northernmost coral island groups in the world. There are many volcanic lava on the island, with undulating low hills, and the highest altitude is 73 meters. Nearby waters produce fish and lobster.
Standing at the hotel where they settled, Gu Hongyu, Feng Jun, and Zhang Han deliberately chose the top floor. When they opened the curtains, they could enjoy the beautiful coastline that stretched beyond the horizon. Many undulating vegetation grew lushly on the island. , making the island extremely eye-catching.
"Hey, Brother Gu, how about going out to have some fun at night?"
"The sun, the beach, the scenery, and I heard there is a beach bonfire party at night. I think this place is no worse than Phuket in Thailand."
After two months of getting along, Feng Jun, Zhang Han and Gu Hongyu have become very familiar with each other. After gradually knowing that Gu Hongyu is a very approachable person, the two people immediately worshiped Gu Hongyu as the boss. The main purpose is for the delicious food of Xianyuan Farm.
No, now these two people are Gu Hongyu's followers. After Gu Hongyu chose the top floor of the hotel, they followed him. Looking at these two people, Gu Hongyu smiled softly: "Wait a minute and see if Professor Qin and the others have packed up properly." , call everyone, although it is a scientific examination, you must also know how to enjoy it. "
"Yes, yes, Brother Gu has thought it through. I will tell the professor and they will say that Brother Gu will treat everyone to dinner."
"Feng Jun, wait, I'll go with you." Soon a sound of footsteps passed, and Gu Hongyu's room immediately became quiet.
Bermuda has its own currency called the Bermuda dollar, but the U.S. dollars brought by Gu Hongyu and others are also circulating on the island.
After nightfall, a large group of seventy or eighty people walked out of the hotel at the same time. The scene still caused an exclamation in the sparsely populated area.
"Come on, come on, brother Gu, let's have a drink." Feng Jun, who was sitting next to the bonfire with a beer, his face turned red by the flames.
Zhang Han and some people gathered around the grill not far away. The quality of seafood here is very good. It may be because the surrounding sea areas are not polluted. In addition, the grilled lobsters, crabs and various seafood are not very expensive. In addition, Gu Hongyu is treating a group of foodies tonight, so they should eat a lot first.
Fortunately, the common language of the indigenous people here is English, so there is no problem in communication. Seeing these people constantly adding barbecue dishes, otherwise several translators would be too busy.
Like Gu Hongyu and others, there are other tourists near this beach. They sit by the campfire and enjoy the food and scenery here, blowing the sea breeze, listening to the sound of the waves rising and falling. It's really interesting.
At this time, Professor Qin walked to Gu Hongyu's side. Seeing that he had been fed a lot of wine by others, but he was not drunk yet, he asked: "Xiao Gu, you spent a lot of money tonight"
"It's okay, everyone won't be so relaxed next time. It's not bad to enjoy it now that we have this opportunity." Gu Hongyu chuckled.
"So when do you think we should start the inspection?" Gu Hongyu became the core member of this group of experts and professors.
"Let's relax for two days. After all, we have to adjust to the time difference!" To be continued.
