Of course, Tan Juren didn't need to live in a temporary tent like the immigrants. The local management committee had already prepared hotel suites and a sumptuous welcome banquet for the travelers who came from afar, and also arranged several carriages to arrive at the Pick them up at the pier.
This black box-type carriage made in Sanya is not cheap. Not only the glass windows on the carriage are valuable, but also the spring damping system and rubber wheels under the carriage are unique configurations of Haihan, making the ride far more comfortable. It is better than traditional horse-drawn carriages, of course, the price is also much higher.When the fleet landed in Da Nang before, the technical content of the carriage sent by the local management committee to pick up Tan Juren and others for the banquet was far inferior to this new type of carriage.
As far as Tan Juren knows, due to the shortage of parts and components, the production capacity of this car is extremely limited. In Sanya, only a few high-ranking officials have been replaced with this new model.Even when many wealthy businessmen from other places came to Sanya to buy money, they still had to wait for a long time to get a number.But eight cars were dispatched here in one go, and the degree of wealth and wealth was fully revealed. It must have taken a lot of work to transport the parts of these cars to Ambuna Island for assembly.
"Get in the car, get in the car, everyone get in the car, let's go back and visit slowly." Mu Xiabo warmly greeted the stunned crowd to get in the car, and he was used to this kind of reaction.The idea of the Ministry of Commerce is to build this place into the largest sea gold cave in the Far East in the century. The first impression after disembarkation is very important, and the effect of this design has obviously been achieved. Most people who visit for the first time will be impressed by the experience here. Surprised by the level of construction, even these partners from the same time and space as Mu Xiabo are no exception.
Sitting in the carriage, Tan Juren suddenly thought of Qiu Xin in the port of Vung Tau. For him, the place is heaven, and as the emperor of the land, he can get whatever he wants and do whatever he wants.But if you really want to talk about the standard of living, I am afraid that this island is still much higher.Apart from the inconvenient transportation, there is nothing wrong with this place. The resources enjoyed by each person may even be better than that of Sanya. It is really a blessing to be assigned to be an official here.
The quality of the welcome banquet did not disappoint the visitors. In addition to some Haihan signature dishes that can be eaten in Sanya, there are also some unique dishes in Southeast Asia, and the drinks provided during the banquet are not common in domestic banquets. "Sanya special brew", but otherwise prepared.
"Pour a glass and taste it, it's a good thing shipped from Europe!" Mu Xiabo greeted everyone enthusiastically, "I'm not bragging, you can't buy this stuff in the market in Sanya, if you want to drink it, you can drink it." You have to come to Ambuna Island!"
Tan Juren raised the glass in his hand to look at it, and then smelled it. It seemed to be ordinary wine. After taking a sip, he felt that the taste seemed to be sweeter than ordinary wine.
Wine imported from Europe is actually nothing new. After Haihan connects with Portugal and the Netherlands, it will also import some goods from Europe through the merchant ships of these two countries. Among them, there are many European wines that travelers miss.However, due to the long route from Europe to the Far East in this era, and the relatively primitive wine preservation technology, the quality of these wines will decline after long-distance transportation by sea, and the taste is far inferior to what travelers drank in the previous time and space. European wines.So after buying a few batches to try something new, the travelers gradually lost interest, and simply asked the Ministry of Agriculture to study how to breed grapes in Hainan Island to make wine.
"Is this really wine imported from Europe? Why does it taste better than the previous one?" Soon someone tasted something.
"It's really imported from Europe!" Mu Xiabo nodded, and continued to add: "It was bought from Portugal."
"What's the name of this wine? Why is it different from what we drank before?" Tan Juren took another sip, and sure enough, he couldn't help but have similar questions.
Mu Xiabai replied: "There is no fixed name for this wine, but if you are someone who likes to drink wine, you should have heard of Port Bar? This is the most original Port wine."
"Port wine? So this is port wine!" Although Tan Juren had never drunk it before, he had heard the name of this wine long ago.To put it bluntly, this wine is really one of the specialties of Portugal.
Port wine is a kind of wine produced in the Douro River Valley in northern Portugal, but it is not really famous in this period. In the original history, it was at the end of the 17th century that British merchants accidentally discovered this wine made by local monasteries. The wines were named and promoted.Its special taste comes from three reasons. One is the flavor of the grapes produced in the special local soil environment. The other is that the wine is distilled before the fermentation of the grape juice is completed during the brewing process. To maintain the quality after long-distance transportation, a certain amount of brandy is also added to it.
The people present did not have such an in-depth study of European wines, and only after listening to Mu Xiabai's explanation of its brewing process did they suddenly understand.This thing is not yet well-known in Portugal, and its production capacity must be limited. No wonder Mu Xiabo just boasted that it would not be available in Sanya.To say that it is rare, it is indeed a rare thing.
Someone immediately became interested in this wine: "This brewing method is not too complicated, can it be replicated in China?"
Mu Xiabai replied: "Of course the brewing method can be copied, but the climate and raw materials cannot be copied. Even if people are invited from Portugal to China, the products will definitely be different. However, if the Ministry of Agriculture in the future If you are interested, you can talk to the Portuguese and ask them to get some wine-making missionaries from the local monastery to develop a new series for Sanya special wine.”
Immediately, someone retorted: "If you bring missionaries over, you have to build a monastery for them. I'm afraid the executive committee will not agree to this. The higher ups are very strict about religion."
"Then there's no other way." Mu Xiabo shook his head and said, "But I didn't buy this wine from the Portuguese for the purpose of selling it in the country. With such a name and a small supply, I sold it locally. If it is sold at a high price, there will still be many people willing to pay the bill, and it will be nothing to send it back as an internal special wine.”
Someone joked: "Old Mu, you have been here for a long time, and this businessman's habit has become a lot worse! Is it true that after retiring from the military and changing careers, you will go to the Ministry of Commerce as an errand?"
Mu Xiabo said sternly: "To tell you the truth, I have really considered this approach, but I don't know if Mr. Shi thinks highly of us. But if you really want me to play tricks with those foreign businessmen, then I also find it a bit difficult to handle.”
Tan Juren answered with a smile: "Brother Mu, what you want is to be able to guard the Anbuna Island all the time, right? Leading troops or doing business, this difference should not be that important to you."
"Xiao Tan understands me!" Mu Xiabo praised: "To be honest, after the Dutch were driven away from here, I thought this place was pretty good, and now that the construction is so good, it is of course a good thing to live here Yes. But we soldiers, of course, have to follow orders and station wherever we are arranged. If we want to use force in the South China Sea in the future, maybe a telegram from Sanya will send us to other places .”
Living in an environment like an overseas paradise like Abunna Island for a long time, it is inevitable that his will will be slowly worn down, even for a veteran like Mu Xiabo.However, he has not been as content with the status quo as Qiu Xin in Vung Tau Port. It is a joke, but when there is a real war, he will still be one of the military's leading generals in the South China Sea.
Mu Xiabo quickly turned the topic back to the itinerary: "I took a look at the pier just now, and it will take three to five days for the damaged ship to be repaired. You are all on the island these few days. Stay here, I will arrange for you to visit around and see the construction results of this place in the past two years!"
Such an arrangement is naturally desirable for everyone. Most of them hardly have the opportunity to go abroad for vacation before crossing, and basically spend the past few years on Hainan Island after crossing.It is a pretty good arrangement to be able to spend a few days on Ambuna Island, which is known as the gold-selling cave in the South China Sea, by taking advantage of this opportunity to go south.Everyone suffered a lot at sea a few days ago, and now they finally see the sun, and their mood has improved greatly.
"Old Mu, tell us first, what are the fun things to do on this island?" Someone immediately started chatting.
Mu Xiabo replied quite complacently: "If you want to talk about interesting things, we have them here, and the grade is higher. We also have them here! Everyone is their own, eating, drinking and having fun on the island, No need to spend money! But if you have fun and want to give a reward, or want to gamble in the casino, then please pay for it yourself!"
The main industries on this island can be divided into three parts, one is the entrepot trade with the port as the main business, the other is the large number of tropical cash crop plantations, and the third is the characteristic tourism and entertainment industry invested by the Ministry of Commerce.
Anbuna Port does not have the same unique geographical conditions as the colonial ports on the Annan coast, so the scale of port construction and the degree of development here are relatively limited. Fortunately, the shipbuilding technology of this era is still relatively primitive, so it is not necessary to Worried about the difficulty of entering the port and docking for [-]-ton ships.Like the fleet going south this time, although there are many ships, they can all enter the dock berths to berth.And the geographical location here is in the center of the South China Sea, and it is also the place where the South China Sea Trade Alliance holds its annual meeting, so there are quite a lot of merchant ships from various countries coming and going here, and the entrepot trade and related transportation, warehousing, sales and financial business, business Naturally, the Ministry will not miss the opportunity.
For the operation of ports and islands, Haihan has accumulated too much experience. These development models that have proven their value in practice will not cause too many problems when used on Abuna Island.The original plantations on the island have also been promoted due to the gradual expansion of the port trade scale, and the scale of the plantations has also been increasing year by year in the past two years.
"If you have a lot of spare money and want to invest in some real estate for future generations, then I suggest you build a few plantations on Abuna Island for long-term investment and make a sure profit!" When Mu Xiabo talked about this issue , spared no effort to promote the island's plantation project to the audience.
Anbuna Island covers an area of more than [-] square kilometers. In addition to setting aside hundreds of square kilometers of land in the south for the biologist Zhang Yun to build a wildlife area, there is still a large area on the island that is completely undeveloped. state.Products processed from economic crops such as rubber, spices, and oil can be regarded as hard currencies that are not worrying about sales at all, and have a long period of stable income and relatively small business risks. They have been invested by foreign investors in the past few years. One of the main items.
However, there are certain threshold requirements for investment in Annbuna Island, and applications for small-scale operations are generally not approved. Therefore, except for Haihan officials, most of the people who build plantations here are like this. Commercial organizations such as Qiong Lianfa and Guangdong Business League came forward and directly contracted thousands of acres of land for development.
The small-scale plantations are basically invested by the traversers, and then directly handed over to the Ministry of Agriculture to operate in the form of collective farms, and the proceeds are distributed in proportion.Although the income of this business model is not so considerable, it is more stable and worry-free. The plantation owner does not have to travel thousands of miles to Ambuna Island to operate, and makes money lying in Sanya.Rather than an investment, it is better to say that it is a kind of welfare that the executive committee distributes to the traversers in disguise.
Of course, this kind of welfare may not be desired by everyone. Some people feel that it is a bit unsafe to invest their money in an island thousands of miles away, or there are investment targets with better returns.Like the travelers who came here with the fleet this time, the vast majority of them did not pass the official investment and operation project on Abuna Island.But after this trip, maybe some of them will change their minds and spend some of their wealth on the Ambuna Island for long-term investment.
The sightseeing trip arranged for the visitors naturally included a visit to the local plantation. People who had no idea about this visit, after listening to Mu Xiabo’s recommendation carefully, decided to include it in the itinerary. on this item.After all, Mu Xiabai generously claimed that he also has a [-]-acre plantation on the island, and plans to increase investment this year to double the area of the plantation. Such vivid examples are very convincing. .
Of course, the expansion of the scale of plantation operations on the island will in turn promote the development of trade, shipping, and even the population of the island. This is also an undoubted trend.According to Mu Xiabai's estimate, the area of plantations on the island will exceed [-] mu within this year, which is definitely not a small amount in overseas colonies.
