Glancing at the convertible sports car, Tang Xiu nodded and walked around the car. After sitting on the front seat, he looked at Jasmine, who was sitting on the front seat and lightly said, "Your resort has set up a casino and even has such a place. Don't tell me you're not afraid of the government's inspection here?"
Looking at Tan Xiu with a strange expression, Jasmine chuckled and said, "Mr. Tang, you don't know this. The big leader of the government here is someone with real power and shares in this place. Every year, he gets a big bonus. "
So that's how it is!
Tan Xiu nodded and sighed inwardly. He didn't feel like saying more about the official's protection. After all, this phenomenon was too common. Not to mention foreign countries, it was a normal thing even in China.
Two minutes later.
The convertible was parked in front of the beach villa where Tan Xiu lived.
"Good night, Mr. Tang!"
Jasmine came down from the front seat and said with a smile.
Tan Xiu nodded. Just as he was about to enter the small courtyard, he suddenly recalled something and quickly asked, "Vice General Manager Jasmine, you should be concerned about the ocean weather, right? Will there be another storm at sea tomorrow? "
"Tonight's ocean weather forecast report shows that the sea is very calm," said Jasmine. "But I don't think this report can be trusted. The weather changes very fast at sea. It may be calm just now, but a big storm will appear after a while. "
"You mean the ocean weather is capricious?" asked Tan Xiu.
"That's exactly what I mean!" Jasmine nodded.
Tan Xiu thought for a moment and then said in a deep voice, "Since the ocean weather is capricious, then I don't need to stay here for long. Tell Tom Reggie that we'll leave here early tomorrow morning. We'll stay here after we come back from the sea. "
"All right."
Jasmine nodded.
Early morning the next day.
Tan Xiu left the Lao Bay Resort with the Mo Brothers. Tom Reggie sent someone to take them to the Redsand Bay Port. When the three of them arrived, they saw a makeshift deck that extended dozens of meters into the sea. It was the landing port of the luxury liner.
Tom Reggie had already arrived and was waiting for Tan Xiu's group. After seeing their arrival, Tom Reggie smilingly said, "Everything is ready. I sent people to the sea at night to sail dozens of nautical miles. Everything is normal. In addition, the personnel on the liner, as well as the food and drinks you will need for the journey, have all been prepared. It will be enough for you to play at sea for a week. "
Tan Xiu smiled and said, "Thank you!"
"You're welcome," replied Tom Reggie with a grin.
Tom Reggie accompanied Tan Xiu's trio to board the passenger ship. After touring the ship, Tan Xiu suddenly asked, "Tom Reggie, how much would it cost me to buy this ship of yours?"
Tom Reggie stared blankly for a moment before revealing an awkward expression. After a few seconds of silence, he slowly said, "I ordered this passenger ship from another country, and the designer is also the best in the world. We spent a total of 160 million US dollars on it. "
"Sell it to me for 200 million US dollars," said Tan Xiu with a smile.
Tom Reggie's expression moved. He looked at the silent Mo Awen at the side and finally nodded and said, "If that's the case, then I'll sell it to you."
Tan Xiu said with a smile, "Just prepare the monopoly procedures. I'll give you the money once we come back and sign the contract."
"No problem!"
Since Tom Reggie had already made his decision, he directly agreed.
Just do it!
The price Tan Xiu offered was very high, but he still felt a bit of heartache. After all, Tan Xiu had won 1 billion in his casino last night. Although it was in RMB, it was still more than 100 million US dollars. In other words, Tan Xiu only spent tens of millions to buy his liner.
As Tom Reggie got off the ship, the liner officially set sail.
The blue sky and the blue seawater echoed each other as far as the eye could see. Standing on the front deck of the liner, Tan Xiu watched the scenery braving the wind and waves. A faint expectation rose in his heart. He was looking forward to rushing to Nine Dragons Island to take over his territory.
But now!
The person in charge of managing Nine Dragons Island was the previous seller's man. However, news came more than a month ago that the other party was preparing to take the people away. As for when he would take it over, it was his own business. Tan Xiu didn't have the time to rush there before. Now that he thought about it, there should be no one managing the place.
'Nine Dragons Island is located in the sea region. Its geographical location is very special and few people would go there. So, I'm afraid there's no one on the island now! '
As he thought up to there, Tan Xiu let out a faint smile.
He didn't care whether there was anyone on the island or not. Even if there was, he must drive them away. He was the owner of the island, and no one could set foot on the island without his permission.
"Boss! Phone! "
Mo Awen came behind Tan Xiu and handed him a satellite phone.
After receiving it, Tan Xiu said in a deep voice, "Tan Xiu speaking."
Gu Xiaoxue's voice came from the phone, "Are you on the way to Nine Dragons Island now, Grand Master? I'm not disturbing you, am I? "
Upon hearing Gu Xiaoxue's voice, Tan Xiu immediately let out a smile and said, "It's alright. The liner just set sail not long ago. Is there something you need from me? "
"It's like this, Grand Master," said Gu Xiaoxue. "Tian Li and Hao Lei have come back and told Elder Ji about your intention. Also, Tian Li and the others brought a total of 28 billion yuan back. Should I transfer the money to your account now? Or should I wait for you to come back? "
After pondering for a moment, Tan Xiu then said with a smile, "You keep 18 billion and transfer 10 billion to me! Nine Dragons Island needs to be remodeled, and I'm afraid it will cost a huge sum. As for the remaining 8 billion from the ginseng I bought, I'll keep it for myself. "
Gu Xiaoxue smiled and said, "I know. Gu Xiaoxue smiled and said, "I'll send someone to transfer the money to your account later. Gu Xiaoxue smiled and said, "That's right, Grand Master. Do you need me to do anything about the remodeling of Nine Dragons Island?"
"Is there any familiar construction company in Saipan that the Everlasting Feast Hall is familiar with?" asked Tan Xiu. "I'm talking about a very large construction company."
"No." Gu Xiaoxue said. "Master's previous arrangements are almost all in the country to find you. Alright, I'll ask some people in the Everlasting Feast Hall. If anyone knows someone there, I'll tell them to find you. "
"Alright!"
Replied Tan Xiu.
After ending the call, Tan Xiu handed the satellite phone to Mo Awen and smilingly said, "I didn't expect that the four tycoons in Hong Kong would actually contribute so much money. I originally thought that the money for the remodeling of Nine Dragons Island was not enough! But now it seems that the difference is not that big. "
Mo Awen's expression moved and said, "Boss, didn't you just say that you're looking for a large construction company in Saipan? Tom Reggie is the local boss here, he must know about it. "
Tan Xiu smiled and said, "I've thought about it. But I'm not ready to tell Tom Reggie. I still don't know who he is at the moment. "
"There's no problem with Tom Reggie himself, Boss," said Mo Awen. "As for his character, it's impossible for him to mingle with others unless he can learn the skills we learned. So I don't think you need to hide it from him. Besides, once Nine Dragons Island is remodeled, a lot of construction materials are bound to pass through Saipan. He's the local boss here, so he will know about it! "
Tan Xiu was silent for a moment and slowly said, "Let's wait and see! Let's see if anyone in the Everlasting Feast Hall knows anyone from the large construction company here. If there is, we won't trouble him. If not, I'll consider talking to him again! "
Mo Awen nodded and didn't speak again.
After two and a half days of sailing, the liner finally arrived at Nine Dragons Island at sunset. As the liner docked at an extended pier, Tan Xiu ordered Mo Awen to stay on the liner while he took Mo Awen to Nine Dragons Island. Climbing all the way, the duo quickly approached the towering palace on the mountain.
"Something's not right, Boss!"
Mo Awu frowned deeply as he looked at the brightly lit palace. Both he and Tan Xiu had excellent eyesight and could clearly see a lot of people in the building a kilometer away. Outside the building, the two of them also saw a few strong men in camouflage clothes with guns in their hands.
Tan Xiu nodded and was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed. He turned his head and shouted in a deep voice, "Who's there?"
"It's me, Boss!"
Wang Dong and another man stealthily appeared from behind a huge boulder. After they came to Tan Xiu's side, they quickly glanced at the palace and then whispered, "There's a special situation here, Boss. We can't go inside for the time being. "
"What's the situation?" asked Tan Xiu with a frown. "Who are those people in the palace?"
Tang Xiu frowned. "We came here a few days earlier than you, Boss." Wang Dong forced a wry smile and said, "We found a group of pirates occupying this place when we arrived. The most important thing is that those pirates also captured hundreds of civilians and detained them here. "
"How many pirates are there?" asked Tan Xiu.
"There are more than 200 of them and each of them has a gun in their hands," said Wang Dong. "Wolf Head was investigating the situation in the vicinity yesterday and was discovered by one of the pirates. Wolf Head killed the pirate and then took us to wander near the nine ports on the island, waiting for your arrival, Boss."
"Contact Wolf Head and the others and tell them to come here immediately," said Tan Xiu.
"Understood!"
Wang Dong replied and quickly took out his satellite phone.
Half an hour later.
Wolf Head and the other ten men arrived.
"Boss, did Wang Dong tell you about the situation here?" asked Wolf Head.
"He did," said Tan Xiu. "Where did these pirates come from? Have you asked them clearly? "
"I've asked them clearly," said Wolf Head. "They're pirates who roam the nearby waters and have no fixed base. They've been staying here for more than ten years because there are very few ships passing by here. They barely have enough to eat and wear. This pirate group is called the Bloodfish Pirates, and their leader is Duffsky, a ruthless and ruthless international wanted criminal. After they came to Nine Dragons Island a few days ago, they slaughtered the people who were guarding the palace and successfully occupied this place. "
