"Young Master!" the five people shouted in unison.
Xu Jianguo nodded and asked, "It's not exposed, right?"
"No!" Fu Bo said.
"Okay, send a message to all the servants later and ask them to find out if there is any country or region, or even an individual, who wants to sell an island. If so, buy it!" said Xu Jianguo.
"Yes, do you have any requirements for the size and location of the island?" asked Fu Bo.
"Yes, the island doesn't need to be too large, but it must be far enough away from the land. Ideally, it should be like the one we used to release the satellite last time."
"clear!"
"It would be even better if we could find an uninhabited island with no country to which it belongs!"
"Okay, young master!" Fu Bo agreed.
After a moment's thought, Xu Jianguo continued, "Once we find the island, we'll just take it. Once the formalities are complete, we'll bring people in to survey and map it, and then start building underground fortifications on the island. You can discuss the specific construction plan with Xu Shisi. Don't worry about the money. You can use the money in your Ruishi Bank account as you please."
"yes!"
Xu Jianguo's idea was very simple. He planned to create a paradise for himself far away from the land. Although he had a portable space, many things he wanted to do in the future would not be suitable or safe in the space, so he still wanted to find a place far away from human habitation.
The reason why he wanted to own the island by purchasing it was because of his memories from his previous life.
At that time, after Xu Jianguo became rich, he planned to follow the example of his partners and buy an island far away from the land, or find an uninhabited island and occupy it as the king.
However, after consulting a lawyer, I learned that the United Nations held a conference in 1982 and passed a bill at the conference called the "United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea", and this bill officially came into effect in 1994.
It stipulates that claims to sovereignty over the high seas are invalid and no country may validly claim to place any part of the high seas under its sovereignty.
It is precisely because of the promulgation of this law that some of the bugs around the South China Sea of Longxia Country dared to challenge the dignity of our great country and repeatedly came to our doorstep to cause trouble.
According to small countries around the South China Sea such as Feilubin and Yuenan, the South China Sea should not belong to the territorial waters of Longxia Kingdom, but to the high seas. This is pure nonsense.
In addition, these countries have the support of the Mexican devils behind them, which makes them even more unscrupulous.
Xu Jianguo has written down all these things in a small notebook. After Xu Shiyi and Xu Shisi get those big guys out, he will send these "firecrackers" to those countries one by one.
As long as you dare to jump around, every time you jump around, you will be lit a firecracker. When you blow up their country to the ground, that's it.
According to Xu Jianguo's memory, the overseas territories of some countries and regions, and even islands in private hands, were not affected after the promulgation of this convention.
That's why Xu Jianguo asked a group of space servants to inquire about the islands, in order to take over a few islands through reasonable purchases before this bill appears, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future.
Originally, he had not thought about buying the island. If it were not for the fact that the desert had been occupied by someone and he was worried about being exposed, he would not have thought of it.
Take the country of Parrot as an example. In addition to its homeland, there are many other places that are considered their territories, most of which are places occupied during the Age of Discovery.
Overseas territories include the Antarctic Territory of the Cockatoo Islands, the Indo-Pacific Territory of the Cockatoo Islands, Gibraltar, Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, Bermuda, the Turks and Caicos Islands, the Cayman Islands, the Cockatoo Virgin Islands, Anguilla, Montserrat, the Falkland Islands, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, the Pitcairn Islands, and Akrotiri and Dhekelia.
After the promulgation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the United States held referendums in the above-mentioned places. Those where there were people could vote, and those where there were no people were considered to be willing to continue to belong to the United States.
As for those who disagree to continue to be subordinate to the Parrot Country, they will be directly expelled from the country, and in the end these places will still belong to them.
It is in line with their shameless and bandit nature.
Therefore, when it comes to islands, Xu Jianguo is more inclined to buy them from private hands. Although they will still be considered the territory of the country after purchase, at least there is no need to worry about forced occupation and demolition in the future. Although this is not absolute, the probability is still smaller.
Xu Jianguo looked at the time and found that it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. He stood up, tightened the cap of the unfinished Coke bottle in his hand, threw it back into the refrigerator, brushed his teeth, and then returned to the bedroom.
Wen Sitian and Lele had already fallen asleep at this time. Looking at the little girl's wild sleeping posture that was exactly the same as Funniu's, Xu Jianguo couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
After thinking about it, he quietly took out the digital camera from the bedside table, turned off the flash, increased the shutter exposure time, and then pressed the shutter button at his little cotton-padded jacket.
Normally, this kind of shooting that requires long exposure requires a tripod for fixation, but Xu Jianguo doesn't need it at all. As long as he wants, he can keep this posture motionless.
This special skill of his came from a drawing assignment given to Funiu and Erya by their teacher when they were in kindergarten. The assignment was to draw the adults in their family after they got home.
As a result, Xu Jianguo, who was drinking tea after dinner, was forced to stand for an hour holding a teacup by the two girls.
It was also at that time that he discovered that his hands were surprisingly steady, and the water in the teacup seemed to be still and motionless.
With a "click" the shutter sound was heard.
He recorded Lele's cute appearance while sleeping. Looking at the picture on the screen, Xu Jianguo nodded with satisfaction and put the camera back on the bedside table.
Because his daughter was there, Xu Jianguo did not take off his pajamas tonight. He gently lifted the quilt and crawled in.
I don’t know if Lele felt something, but after Xu Jianguo lay down on his side, this girl actually took the same posture as him, curled herself up into a ball and leaned on his arms.
Smelling the pleasant milky scent of his daughter, Xu Jianguo slowly closed his eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep.
