After turning into the owner of the island under Vivian's operation, Lin Zhicheng owned a total of six islands under his name.

Located in the northernmost part of the main island, Naran Island, with an area of 236 square kilometers, is the largest of the six islands and has the largest permanent population of the six islands. As a result, the archipelago of six islands was named the Naran Islands.

To the south of the main island, five nautical miles away, is a secondary island called Changshou Island. In contrast, the sub-island is much smaller, only about one-sixth the size of the main island. Due to the lack of development and the lack of abundant resources on the main island, the permanent population of this island is much smaller than that of the main island, only about 2,000 people, less than one-tenth of the main island.

The remaining four islands are named after Fu Lu Xi Cai.

Despite their name, these four islands don't really have much place in the hearts of the locals, for the simple reason that they are small and undeveloped, and are still in their most primitive form.

Not far away is the main island suitable for life, and no matter how poor it is, there is a side island to make do, so there is really no need to come to these primitive islands to be savages. Well, to put it bluntly, the four islands of Fulu Xicai are now the uninhabited islands that people often refer to.

Nalan, longevity, and Fulu Xicai, look at these names, are they very flavorful of our Great Heavenly Empire?

Let's take a look at the location of the archipelago, the latitude and longitude are more difficult to understand, let's describe it in another way - if you connect Tokyo, Hawaii and the islands, the location of the Nalan Islands is probably in the middle of this triangle.

In other words, it is not an exaggeration to describe the distance between the Nalan Islands and the Celestial Empire continent as far away.

Why, then, does the name of this archipelago have such a strong Celestial Empire flavor?

It all started more than 100 years ago.

In 1840, after the European powers used opium to pry open the doors of the Qing Dynasty, many people from the princes and nobles to the small landowners in the countryside became addicts.

occupies the vast majority of resources, and is still the ruling class of the country, but they do not care about national affairs at all, only thinking about that big smoke. Naturally, even the whole country fell into weakness and embarked on a situation of terminal illness and imminent destruction.

Of course, not everyone is blind to reality.

For example, Lin Zexu, who once led the sale of cigarettes in Humen, is a person who has kept calm.

In order to save his motherland, Lin Zexu made many efforts in the court, including not only the Humen cigarette sale incident written in the textbook, but also many other details.

Although he failed to stop the wheel of history in the end, his vision and determination are beyond doubt.

It is with this vision and determination that Lin Zexu is active in the court while arranging a retreat for his family.

Like the Zhuge family during the Three Kingdoms, Lin Zexu, who was an official in the court, also knew the trick of 'don't put your eggs in one basket'. Under his leadership, a branch of the Lin family was sent overseas, far from the center of the vortex.

Decades have passed, the Central Plains has been torn apart by foreign powers, and the huge Qing Dynasty has also ushered in the final end.

In another piece of land, the branch of the Lin family withstood all kinds of huge pressure, gave full play to the hard-working nature of the Chinese nation, and spelled out a large industry.

Later, during the First World War, the Lin family once again made an important choice, that is, to take out all their assets in exchange for the permanent ownership of the Nalan Islands from France, which was in dire need of war funds.

Is it worth it?

Judging from the situation at that time, the head of the Lin family seemed to have made a very bad decision. After all, France itself is involved in the war, whether it can continue to exist is two words, under this premise, it is obviously very irrational to use all the assets accumulated by the entire family to exchange for an archipelago in their hands that hangs over the sea - if France carries it, it will be repaid, if it can't be carried over, then the ownership of the archipelago that the Lin family bought from France will naturally have no meaning.

But from another point of view, the situation is different.

The entire European continent was shrouded in the flames of World War I, and as a yellow race, the Lin family's position was very embarrassing. To put it mildly, no matter what the final result is, the Lin family is very likely to be beaten by the final victor.

Instead of making wedding dresses for others, it is better for a strong man to break his wrist.

In addition, not wanting to be discriminated against day after day, and suffering from disparities and injustices year after year, is also one of the reasons that prompted the Lin family to stay away from Europe.

In this way, the Lin family gave up the European industry and moved the family to settle in the Naran Islands.

As time passed, the flames of the First World War subsided, and the final result was, as in history, with France winning the war and becoming the winner.

Looking back and summing up, the French have not forgotten the Lin family - it was the Lin family's investment that alleviated the situation, gave France a crucial respite, and finally reversed the decline.

When you receive a favor, you will naturally have something in return. What's more, the situation is no longer the same as before, and after the war, France not only has to maintain its image in front of the other victorious powers, but also has no spare energy to cross the ocean to recover and manage the Naran Islands. As a result, the French government at that time simply pushed the boat down the river and issued an official statement, which not only confirmed the Lin family's ownership of the Naran Islands, but also expressed formal gratitude to the Lin family for their support in World War I.

To put it bluntly, it is to certify the Lin family's identity as a 'good friend of the French people'.

After learning these news, the people of the Lin family who were far away in the Nalan Islands were also happy for a while. Speaking of which, this is the first time that the Lin family has been affirmed by a government at the official level, and it is France that has the status of a great power that has given the affirmation.

Next, an inevitable choice was placed in front of the Lin family: should they continue to maintain their original plan and stay in the Nalan Islands in the Pacific Ocean to run their own one-third of an acre of land, or should they take advantage of this craze to return to Europe and start all over again with the help of the French government?

The choice of the head of the Lin family is to stay.

If you go back, you may get temporary convenience, but with the passage of time, after that layer of aura gradually wears out, the Lin family, who are yellow people, will eventually go down the old road, and be discriminated against and treated unfairly by those white people in Europe, either openly or covertly.

Well, although there were some objections within the family, however, thanks to the feudal tradition, the decision of the head of the Lin family was still implemented, and in the end, the Lin family did not return to Europe, but while accepting the gratitude of France, they replied with polite words, and honestly stayed in the Nalan Islands and started a new life.

After that, it was quiet for about twenty years or so.

World War II broke out.

Although far from the main battlefield in Europe, the Naran Islands have not escaped the shadow of war - on this side of the Pacific, there is also an RB jumping up and down.

In that war, the population of the Lin family was wiped out by nine, and the clan was almost wiped out.

Fortunately, the RB people died by themselves, and completely angered the Americans with the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

The only remaining members of the Lin clan took the initiative to contact the U.S. government, and at the cost of 'the Nalan Islands are willing to join the U.S. Federation as a new member', they received the U.S. government's care.

Of course, the more important reason is that the Naran Islands are well located and are very suitable as a springboard for the US Pacific Fleet to attack the RB mainland.

In short, under the protection of the American Navy fleet, the Nalan Islands were not completely occupied by the Japanese army, and the last of the Lin clansmen finally escaped the catastrophe, leaving the only incense for the Lin family.

In the blink of an eye, in 1945, the U.S. military dropped two oversized bombs on the RB mainland, which finally broke the leg bones of the RB people and made them kneel down and sing about conquest.

The only remaining members of the Lin clan returned to the Nalan Islands, and at this moment, the island had been devastated by the war, and its situation was even more difficult than when the Lin family first arrived.

If you change to someone else, you may simply give up the ownership of the Nalan Islands, take the compensation money from the US government, and go to the mainland of the United States to be a rich man who does not worry about eating and drinking.

But the Lin clan didn't choose to do that.

In the end, he was born in the Celestial Empire, and he has a strange attachment to the land in his heart. In addition, it is also because they have just experienced the war and experienced the crisis of almost being wiped out, and the only remaining Lin clan members still have a lot of strength in their hearts, wanting to be reborn and rebuild the Lin family.

The U.S. government is somewhat dissatisfied with this choice of the Lin clan - it's all on this, and it doesn't even honestly give up the territory? It's a big rebellion~!

Fortunately, the few remaining Lin clan members are all elites in the clan, and their brains are quite bright. Seeing that the U.S. government wanted to take advantage of the situation to seize the territory, they hurriedly released the documents that had been kept with them.

The agreement clearly states that the Nalan Islands will join the U.S. Federation as a new member under the leadership of the Lin clan, and there is no mention in the agreement that the Lin clan will surrender their ownership of the islands.

In addition, France and the Celestial Empire, both victorious powers, expressed solidarity and support for the Lin clan at the official level, so the US government had no choice but to admit that the Lin clan continued to retain ownership of the Nalan Islands.

In general, the relationship between the Naran Islands and the United States is what Guam is to the United States.

The United States established a military garrison and a fleet on the main island of the Naran Islands, and the Naran Islands became part of the United States under the name of "unincorporated territory."

The difference is that the United States has not provided support for the development of the Nalan Islands.

This is not difficult to understand, after all, the ownership of the Nalan Islands still belongs to the Lin clan, and it is not directly under the US government like Guam. Moreover, because of the ignorance of the Lin clan, the U.S. government still has some ideas of 'giving these guys a little color'.
