Chapter 506: Finding Compatriots
Su Yang was surprised that this intermediary company had a partner in the local area, because he had already asked Xiao Di to check, most of the intermediaries who bought and sold islands like this are not the same company to connect customers on both sides, and their organizational structure is similar to that of travel agencies: multi-party cooperation.
There are companies that form teams, companies that accompany people throughout the process, companies that have local receptions, and several companies that work together as a tour group to provide services.
The same is true of this island intermediary company, which mainly focuses on the domestic market, and after recruiting the right customers, contacts local intermediaries who buy and sell islands from all over the world and ask for information.
When the customer is interested, they will send someone to accompany them to fly to the local area to check, confirm the purchase, and complete all the procedures.
It's a common way to work together all over the world.
Soon, under the contact of Xiao Fang, their partner sent a seven-seater business vehicle, Xiao Fang opened the door for Su Yang, and explained, "Generally speaking, many customers who come to buy the island will bring an evaluation team, like you... There are very few who bring only one secretary. ”
Su Yang smiled and said, "I don't like too many people following. And... I bought the island to have fun. If you like it, buy it. There is no need for any evaluation. ”
While the two were talking, Janet took the lead in getting into the car to check it, and after confirming that there was no problem, she nodded at Su Yang.
Su Yang got into the car, Janet followed, and finally Xiao Fang got into the car.
After closing the door, Xiao Fang exchanged a few words with the driver in English and sat back in his seat.
The vehicle started, and he said to Su Yang, "The hotel we settled in is near Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, where there is a small pier where you can go directly to the sea. I've already contacted the partner company, and the boat they have prepared is still two hours away. Let's go to the hotel first, put down our things, pack up, and go to see the island. ”
Su Yang shook his head and said, "You go and put the hotel in, just put things." We had already stayed in a different hotel the other day, so we won't change it. ”
Xiao Fang nodded: these are the freedom of the customer.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the hotel, Xiao Fang went to put his things, and Su Yang and Janet got out of the hotel and walked around Waikiki Beach.
The first time he went abroad, Su Yang felt that everything was very novel: the architectural style that was completely different from China, the people who were different from the domestic ones, and the clothes that were too cool all opened Su Yang's eyes.
He chatted with Janet, "Tsk, you see these people are wearing really cool clothes." Is there any difference between this and wearing underwear? ”
Janet, "..."
Hawaii is a resort, and now in October, it is just the end of the holidays, and there are a lot of people coming and going.
Maybe it's because people who come to Hawaii are swimming and playing in the water, so men and women wear cool clothes. Men show off their muscles, women show off their flesh...
Su Yang and Janet chatted with each other, "What do you say is the difference between a swimsuit and underwear?" ”
Janet, "..."
Su Yang, "Aren't they all two pieces of cloth?" Why on the beach, men and women only wear such a little fabric, but they are not shy. But usually, you will be shy if you leak a little underwear? What kind of psychology is this? ”
Janet, "..."
Su Yang looked at Janet, Janet was not speechless, but had no desire to speak at all.
Su Yang spread his hands: Yes, I brought a stuffy gourd.
After walking around the hotel with Janet for a while, and walking on the beach by the way, Xiao Fang's WeChat voice dialed over.
"Hello? Mr. Su. Where are you? I'm going to look for you. ”
Su Yang looked at the place he was: Hmm... The beach and the boardwalk, the buildings with no signs, he didn't know where he was.
So he said, "I'm not far from the hotel, I'll go back now." ”
After a while, the two of them returned to the hotel, and Xiao Fang also packed up his things and waited downstairs.
Calculate the time, it's almost time to go.
Su Yang, Janet and Xiao Fang got in the car and went to the small pier by the sea, where they saw a speedboat.
"That island is not far from the coast, about 40 minutes by boat, and it may be faster if you go by speedboat, about half an hour." ”
Xiao Fang's information was quite reliable, and half an hour later, Su Yang logged in to this small island.
Looking at the small island in photos and videos, it was bare and ugly, and after landing on the island, Su Yang found... It's ugly indeed.
Aside from the clear blue waters and white-gold sandy beaches, this small island is nothing but a non-polluted environment.
Led by a local agent, a few people walked along the edge of the island, which may not have many trees and no creatures except for a few seabirds, but probably due to the climate, there are many mosquitoes here.
Su Yang browsed along the coastline, and then climbed a small mountain, and found a hot spring in the mountain that exuded steaming heat...
Seeing the hot spring, Su Yang looked at Xiao Fang in a little surprise, "There is a volcano underneath this island?" ”
Xiao Fang took out the information, looked at it carefully, and then replied, "There shouldn't be any." However, after all, this place has not been professionally explored, so it is difficult to say. ”
"In addition, Mr. Su, if you have concerns about the volcano, it is best not to choose Hawaii. This is because the Hawaiian Islands are known as one of the most active volcanic areas in the world. There are even quite a few islands that were created by lava epidemics. ”
Su yang:...
I see.
After walking around the island for two more laps, Su Yang and his party returned to the beach and watched the picture taken by the drone: those places are not very convenient to climb, so they used the drone to broadcast Su Yang live.
After reading everything, Su Yang knew the situation on this island well.
He felt quite satisfied overall, and he didn't even care too much about the island's presence in the volcanic belt: it wasn't on the crater.
And... He has a system, what is he afraid of.
But just because he thinks this doesn't mean that others think the same way, for example, the local white agent doesn't know how many people he has brought to see this island, and he has long been hopeless about the sale of this island: after all, the conditions are too poor.
In addition to its location, there is no fresh water, no docks, no shelter, no plants and no animals, and it is almost impossible to transform this small island into a suitable place for people to live.
It is very difficult to even make a resort island, and it costs a lot of money.
What's more... There are some other problems with this island...
After going back, Su Yang told Xiao Fang that he was very interested in this island and planned to buy this island, so that Xiao Fang could contact the seller.
As for how to buy, Su Yang and Xiao Fang had discussed it as early as when they were preparing to buy islands in China, and used the more common method of buying islands abroad: buying them through a leather bag company registered overseas.
Generally speaking, there are likely to be different restrictions on foreigners purchasing their own islands, as laws vary from country to country. In addition, the domestic control of foreign exchange is relatively strict, and the tax problems of buying and selling islands in the two countries are often different, so the way of buying and selling is often different according to each person's situation.
For example, in the case of Su Yang, it is generally more common to set up an overseas company, with a domestic company holding the shares, and then the domestic assets are mortgaged in US dollars, and then invested in the overseas company, and the overseas company directly buys it.
As for the registration of overseas companies, it has a relationship with the bank to borrow foreign exchange and the small party to handle it.
After everything was negotiated, Su Yang and Janet left the hotel and waited for the arrival of the seller to start negotiations on the deal.
In order to complete the bronze mission, Su Yang watched a lot of American dramas and movies before, so he has a pure American English, and there is no language communication barrier in Honolulu.
Strolling along the boardwalk of Waikiki Beach, I found a small local shop, ordered some local specialties, and sat opposite Su Yang and Janet.
After a while, the meal was set up, and there were "Romi Romi Salmon Salad", "Pochi", "Lao Lao Steamed Pork", "Fish Cutlet" and so on.
These are all recommended by Xiaodi to Su Yang to find travel guides.
Su Yang first scooped a bite of Romi Romi salmon salad with a spoon, which melted in his mouth and was delicious.
"Romi Romi" means massage in the local language, and Su Yang feels that the meaning of the whole dish is: massage salad made of salmon.
Well... I guess that's what it means.
After tasting a bite, Su Yang motioned for Janet to eat together, and then officially started.
After a while, Su Yang raised his head and found that Janet had not moved.
Janet is one of the youkai of [Advanced Life Leap], and she is no different from a human anymore. So it's definitely something you can eat.
And she usually eats some things, such as sashimi, oysters, and whatever. In general, the taste is similar to when she was a shark, and it is all seafood.
This time in Hawei, Su Yang also ordered seafood: such as Splashy and fish cutlets, but why didn't Janet eat it?
Don't... Poisonous in rice?
Su Yang stopped the knife and fork in his hand and asked Janet suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?" How do you skip meals? ”
Janet's face sank like water, and she said to Su Yang, "Lord, I have found many of my compatriots. ”
"Compatriots?" Su Yang was stunned for a moment, "Shark? ”
Janet nodded, "Yes." A lot. I want to help them. ”
Su Yang put down the knife and fork, looked left and right, and found that no one noticed him, so he asked, "How do you want to help?" ”
Janet shook her head, "I don't know. I just felt as if they were lost, wandering in the sea, with no purpose, no pursuit, like the walking dead. ”
Su yang:...
Aren't all normal animals like that?
Ate and sleep, sleep and eat, snap to age, reproduce, and then grow old...
How does this help?
Teach them drawing, math? Educate them not to eat small fish?
You won't be eaten first, will you?
While complaining, Su Yang continued to stuff the food into his mouth.
After eating less than two bites, Su Yang suddenly stopped.
Because he noticed something was wrong: he and Janet had only gone to that island today, and where did Janet find his kind?
Thinking so, Su Yang turned his head to look at Janet, "Janet, where did you find your kind?" ”
The expression on Janet's face didn't change, "In the vicinity of our future base." ”
Sure enough, it's near the island!
But... That's not right!
Why doesn't the information on the island say that there are many sharks nearby?
Thinking like this, Su Yang couldn't help but look at Janet and asked, "Is it more?" ”
Janet nodded, "I sensed seven or eight. ”
Seven or eight sharks?
All near the islands?
Su Yang was a little surprised.
Sharks are not social animals, how can there be so many sharks near the island?
Why didn't you know about it?
