Chapter Seventy-Eight: Hurricane Follow-up [Ask for Collection, Recommend]
Tahiti had been hit by a devastating hurricane only the year before.
A year later, there was another devastating hurricane.
The worst hit by the hurricane was the Society Islands, the archipelago where the main island of Tahiti is located. But the economic boom over there, this disaster can easily be resisted. On the other hand, the Atumotu Islands, which have not recovered from the hurricane disaster of the previous year, have been hit by hurricanes again......
In the case of the village of Tikhao, the previous year's hurricane was even greater, but the damage to the community was similar to that of this hurricane. The main thing is that there is no money to build a strong house......
Most of the collapsed houses were new ones, all of which were wooden houses reinforced with nails. Such a house is not as sturdy as the lagoon cabins of the Pearl Beach Hotel......
The Tuamotu Islands and other islands were also affected to a greater or lesser extent. It is a remote archipelago, with the most populous Lunjira Atoll being just over 3,000 people, and more villages with more than 100 or hundreds of people.
Mo Fan went over to look at the hotel guests, and some of the guests were emotional and wanted to leave. Mo Fan proposed to waive everyone's room and board expenses and catering expenses for the next few days, and ensure everyone's safety, which stabilized everyone's mood, and hurriedly counted the hotel's supplies and medicines, and then contacted Kane and asked him to find a way to purchase medicines as soon as possible.
"Boss, the United Speaker of the Tuamotu Islands Commune has just contacted me and asked for our rescue. ”
"Oh. Mo Fan pondered for a moment: "Give me the speaker's number." You leave the matter of purchasing medicines to someone else, come over immediately. ”
The land islands of the Tikchau Atoll are 20 square kilometres, and the islands under Mofan's name are already 13 kilometres in size. An island is an island and may not include a lagoon. The Tikechau Atoll lagoon is 27 kilometres long and 19 kilometres wide, covering an area of 461 square kilometres. If it's in your own hands, it should be able to play a huge role.
There was a lot of luck in the previous acquisition of Mataiwa Atoll, and it was a lot of trouble to get the Tikhao Atoll in the bag. The hurricane may be an important opportunity to acquire Tikhao Atoll.
Mo Fan received a call from the joint speaker of the commune of the Tuamotu Islands and waited for a minute to call.
"Hello, is this Mr. Mo Fan?" said the Speaker, speaking not very fluent English.
"Yes, hello Mr. Speaker. Who is in charge of the command of this rescue, and I will fully cooperate with the rescue. ”
"The commander-in-chief is the Coast Guard, and we have our own rescue team, but there are less than twenty people and two helicopters. Now I'm in charge of the rescue team......"
The Maritime Safety and Security Agency is part of the French Polynesian Public Sector, which is politically involved. The United Parliament of the Tu'a Islands is seeking greater autonomy......
The powerful relationship made Mo Fan hesitate. If you openly support the joint parliament, you will undoubtedly send a signal that you have political demands. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
"Mr. Mo Fan?"
"In. ”
"If you have any scruples, I will help you contact the rescue commander, and the rescue is important now. "This hurricane has a wide area, and the hurricane is coming from the direction of the islands, and the first is the islands of the islands, followed by the Society Islands, and then the Tua Islands. The authorities of French Polynesia have given priority only to areas with large populations, and the Tu'a Islands have been equally severely affected, but not as a priority for rescue.
Mo Fan used to light a cigarette when he was thinking, and felt his pocket and found that there was no ......
own appeal, purpose.
Everything you own must be permanently kept out of the public? In this way, you can not get involved in the whirlpool, and feel at ease......
But the current Mo Fan is not particularly content with being bland.
"All the resources on my side are at your disposal. ”
"Thank you so much. The island hospital is rudimentary, there are many seriously injured people who can't be sent away in a hurry, I need a helicopter ......"
"Okay, helicopter right over. Mo Fan went to the hotel's transport command department, which managed five helicopters and several ferries, four of which were on their way to transport the wounded. Five other helicopters were contacted at the command center to rush to Avatolu (Lunjira Atoll), the seat of the government of the Tuamotu Islands.
There are 16 communes in the Tua archipelago, each of which consists of multiple atolls, and the population is even more dispersed. Many villages do not have airports and can only be transported by helicopter or boat......
A total of nine communes were severely affected by the hurricane. Mo Fan went back to the house and woke up Mo Yu: "Get up, it's like a dead pig sleeping." ”
"Is the eldest aunt here?" Mo Yu got up with a pout, always feeling that Mo Fan's emotions were like the women who came to the eldest aunt, always cloudy and uncertain, obviously they were fine yesterday: "Why are you walking? What should I do if the wound is ruptured." ”
"Get up and wash your face, don't put on makeup and follow me out. Mo Fan said to go downstairs and call James on Maka Island, he had just started his yacht to pick up supplies from Papeete, Mo Fan asked about the situation on the island and asked him to inform Tanui to go to Lunjira Atoll.
Mo Yu hurriedly went downstairs and pushed his wheelchair to the helipad.
The helicopter was ready to take a trip to the town where the atoll is located. In the town after the hurricane, the houses have collapsed, the injured have been sent away, and people are cleaning up their belongings in the rubble.
Mo Yu is no longer sleepy now, and he covered his mouth when he saw the scene after the hurricane: "Is it so serious?"
"The situation in the wind-direction islands is even more serious. ”
The helicopter turned around and flew towards Avatoru in Rangira Atoll.
Awatolu is located in the eastern part of the reef and the damage is not severe, and the airport is organizing the delivery of supplies to other small islands.
Landing at the airport, several aborigines greeted him, and at the front was Speaker Wanatu, who was on the phone with Mo Fan.
"Are you Mr. Mo Fan?"
"Yes. I came first, the other helicopters followed, and I had a shipment of medicines on the way. ”
Wanatu saluted Mo Fan, stretched out his hand and shook Mo Fan: "Thank you so much." ”
"You're welcome. After all, I am also a member of the Tuamotu Islands......" Mo Fan showed a faint smile, and then said with a straight face: "It is important to treat the wounded now." ”
"Yes, yes...... There are three small islands that cannot be contacted right now, and we have to send people to check them out as soon as possible. ”
While speaking, the helicopter pilot brought Mo Fan a wheelchair: "Boss, I will communicate with the rescue center about the rescue, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”
"Hmm. You also pay attention to safety......"
In Tahiti, Mo Fan is a legend. The video of the previous interaction with the sperm whale went to the world...... Later, there was a sea monster incident, and it was only recently confirmed that the giant sea monster really existed. Before the news radio station made a big report, the legend of the sea monster was linked to Mo Fan. But now the sea monster reported in the news hit the propeller of the freighter, tore his head and died, and it has nothing to do with Mo Fan.
But in the previous legend, it was Mo Fan who jumped into the sea to fight the sea monster, and commanded dozens of whales, and finally killed the sea monster at a terrible price. The rumors are full of color, and it is said that Mo Fan was seriously injured because of this......
Speaker Wanatu and his entourage glanced at each other, and looked at Mo Fan's eyes more and more respectfully. The peoples who live on the sea also worship the strong, and in their eyes, Mo Fan is mysterious, powerful, and rich.
"Mr. Mo Fan, we have arranged a place for you to rest. Speaker Wanatu made an inviting gesture: "You don't need to worry too much about directing the rescue work. ”
