"The contemptible surname is Joe, just call me Old Joe, young man, what about you, you should not be too old, you can travel to Christmas Island, your family must be extraordinary, these are,,,,,,。 It is certain that you can travel abroad and have a good family background, but there are so many people following, which is a little different, which is actually the key reason why Mr. Qiao stayed with Chen Kangjie to talk.

"My surname is Chen, just call me Xiao Chen, my family background is not extraordinary, I just want to come out to see more knowledge, read thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles", Chen Kangjie said modestly, and then tilted his head to look at Xiong Ziqiang They said: "These are my friends, you know, the mother of the child is worried, so the family called a few friends to come out to play together, which is a response."

Although Chen Kangjie tried his best to avoid revealing his identity, what he said had already made Lao Qiao feel that their family was definitely not simple, even if it was an ordinary wealthy family, it was impossible to be worthy of so many subordinates.

Chen Kangjie can't hide anything too much, if he says that his family is an ordinary working family, no one will believe it, not to mention that in less than half a day, the news of a private business jet coming to Christmas Island will spread all over the island, and the charter flights to and from Christmas Island before are basically some small passenger planes, like this kind of luxury plane is the first time to come here, so it will definitely attract a lot of people's attention.

"Hehe, yes, yes, adults are like this, I'm sorry, I talked with you for a long time, and I didn't take you to the room to see it, and I don't know if you are satisfied or not, our small place, there is no big hotel", Old Qiao nodded with a smile and stood up, Chinese became more and more fluent, and really wanted to bring Chen Kangjie and them to the guest room for placement.

As he deserves, the hotel is a hotel, and the rooms on the second floor are not luxurious, but they are quite clean, especially two rooms with toilets, which is rare.

There are eight rooms on the second floor of Lao Qiao's house, just enough to live Chen Kangjie and his group, four rooms face the street, four rooms face the backyard, and they are quite satisfied with the room, Chen Kangjie didn't even ask about the room money, so he decided to live here, it stands to reason that Chen Kangjie should choose a guest room close to the backyard, where one is safer, the other is quiet, and it will be noisy near the street, but Chen Kangjie still chooses to live on this side of the street, so that he can see the pedestrians and scenery on the street from the window.

After washing his face and resting for a while, Chen Kangjie and his party planned to go out to eat, Lao Qiao's family actually provided food here, but his family didn't know that so many people would live today, so the food prepared was not enough, when going out, Lao Qiao Jianyì They could go to the beach, where there was a good small restaurant, where you could eat the island's characteristic red crab.

At this time, the sun has set over the sea level, and several dim street lamps are lit up on the side streets, and there are more pedestrians on the streets.

It's just that although he is in the Indian Ocean, Chen Kangjie has the illusion that he has not arrived in a foreign country, but it is like a small town in eastern Guangdong Province, and all he hears is Cantonese.

The visit introduced by Old Joe is called Dunedin, which was opened by a New Zealander, this old man is 60 years old, but he likes the quietness of Christmas Island, and came here to open such a small hotel by the sea.

When Chen Kangjie saw this small restaurant with a small neon billboard, he thought, this owner must be from Dunedin.

The whole restaurant is a wooden structure, the bottom is supported by wooden piles, more than two meters high from the ground, but at this time the sea tide is rising, the sea water has submerged to the half of the wooden piles, from the cement road to this small restaurant, you need to walk through a wooden bridge of more than ten meters, half of the restaurant is covered with wood, the other half is exposed outside, the ground is laid with wooden boards, placed several long wooden tables, and there is a wooden fence on the outside to prevent tourists from accidentally falling into the water.

Such a comfortable design, even if it is not a meal, but sitting at the outdoor table drinking a cup of coffee or tea, it is also a kind of enjoyment, overlooking the sea and sky, listening to the ebb and flow of the tide, pleasant to the ear, feeling the breeze on the face, salty and wet to bring coolness.

When they arrived, there were not many guests, only two tables of guests were having dinner, one table inside and one table outside, and there was only one Malay girl as a waitress except for the boss.

"Gentlemen, please sit inside or outside. Seeing Chen Kangjie and the others walking down from the covered bridge, the young Malay girl took two steps forward and greeted them in the difficult English of the Nanyang area.

English-speaking foreigners, it is generally difficult for people from other countries to take the initiative to speak other people's native language, this may be due to the subconscious of natural pride in their bodies, they always hope that others will accommodate them, not the other way around, the simplest example is that there are many foreigners who have begun to work in China, careful people will appear, they are in the interaction with domestic colleagues or people, most of them are chatting in English, the people in China, perhaps rooted in history and reality, see foreigners, everyone said no"Hello", but "he11o", in this regard, we may not be able to blame all foreigners, we ourselves have given up our own language to accommodate others, and others naturally do not need to be polite.

Under normal circumstances, this Malay girl will not greet guests so politely, the circle here is too small, the population is so large, everyone is usually familiar, in the case of familiarity, greeting will become simple and cordial, but Chen Kangjie They are strangers, Malay girls have never seen it, plus she heard that there is a private business plane on the island today, so it is speculated that Chen Kangjie and they are passengers on the plane eight or nine times out of ten, it is rare to see her politeness.

"Thank you, let's sit outside, the air is good", Chen Kangjie replied casually.

After the Malay girl arranged them to sit down at the back two tables, the boss came out, still with the recipe in hand.

"Gentlemen, what do you want to eat, this is a recipe, please take a look", the boss's eyes were very vicious, and he smiled and put the paper recipe in front of Chen Kangjie, who was sitting down in the lead.

"I heard that your red crab here is very famous, then give us a few copies of this, and the rest, you can just look at it, we are just like that", Chen Kangjie was very casual, reaching out and closing the open recipe again.

"Okay, then have a few fried red crabs, Bluff oysters, smoked salmon, potato mussels,,,,,,, you see, they are all very fresh, and for dessert, you can try our own p**1ova, you should be satisfied" , The boss didn't really make his own assertions, or gave the dishes he wanted to serve to Chen Kangjie first, this is worthy of being in the sea, what he recommended is basically seafood, and finally that Palova Chen Kangjie Although he didn't know what it was, but the boss could be so confident, it must not be too unpalatable.

"Okay, thank you, just do as you say", Chen Kangjie waved his hand.

Just as Chen Kangjie was ordering, the three white men at the next table turned to look at them from time to time.

The reason why Chen Kangjie didn't order his own food seriously was also related to them, and when he came in just now, he heard the three of them talking about Christmas Island Phosphate Mining Co., Ltd., so his eyes and ears were actually paying attention to them.

Hearing that Chen Kangjie finished ordering so quickly, and that the group of them just sat and enjoyed the scenery without speaking, the three of them suddenly felt that it was not interesting, and they picked up their beers and began to chat while eating.

"Are you really going back to Western Australia and not coming back? The person on the left of the two people who sat together with his back to Chen Kangjie asked his friend opposite.

"Yes, I don't plan to come back, this bird place, there is nothing to want, the salary is not rising, there is no point in staying here, I heard that we are going to do a big project over there, and we will need a lot of people at that time, the income must be higher than here, and more importantly, the living environment is much better", the man opposite took a piece of food with a knife and fork and put it in his mouth, chewed a few bites, and then nodded and replied after swallowing.

"I think it's actually not bad here, the pace of life is slow, the cost is not high, the most important thing is quiet, it's like a vacation, every day is facing white waves, sand and blue sky," said the person who asked the question.

"Man, then you just stay here, you don't want to think about it, why don't you have a girlfriend until now, just this place, which woman wants to stay here with you to live, not to mention anything else, if she wants to buy a better box of cosmetics, it will become a difficult thing, usually this is very beautiful, but when there is a typhoon, the spring water is poured into the seawater, not to mention, as soon as the motor stops, the whole island is dark, and it immediately becomes eerie, anyway, I still want to go back, I will ask William next Monday? Mr. Lanak resigned", it seems that this man's intention is decided.

"What about you, Walt," said the man, who had a good impression of Christmas Island, asked his friend sitting on his right.

"I haven't thought about it yet, maybe, I'll go back sooner or later, my grandmother died last year, I want to go back to see her, but there is no plane, and when I arrive by boat, my grandmother will be buried for three days", after answering, Walter took a deep sip of wine.

From the chat between the three of them, Chen Kangjie understood why there are fewer and fewer Westerners on the island, it is indeed too remote, the scenery is very beautiful, but the living conditions are also very poor, those Westerners, especially young people, are beginning to be unable to stand the torture of loneliness, and the colorful and bright big city is forming a new attraction for them.
