It is also one of the many islands and reefs in the Paracel Islands, but it is not an island, but is made up of three small islands. The www.biquge.info is located 4.6 nautical miles southwest of Jinquanyu.

Because the three islands are exactly surrounded by a semicircle, the same as the moon in the night sky, it was named the moon island by the ancients. Three small islands form a semicircle and form an intra-island lake with a shallow coral reef.

The average area of the three small islands is 0.025 square kilometers. And like Jinquanyu, the island is lush and vibrant. Patches of silver-haired trees and grasses grow on phosphorous limestone soils, as well as low coriander lithophytic vegetation. The island is also home to a large number of seabirds.

In terms of tourism value, Xianyue Island is much higher than Jinquanyu, which is a desolate desert except for sand and sand. However, success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He, because it is all sand that Jinquanyu has a high-quality beach environment.

Since the islands are not connected to each other, the small lake surrounded by the islands also has great development value, and small boats from the outside can reach the interior. The small island at an altitude of more than 10 meters can also block a large part of the wind and waves, and can be used to develop a variety of tourism products in the lake, or marine aquaculture.

"The seabirds in the Zhongsha Islands in the southwest are not only rich in species, but also in large numbers, and many seabirds even go out to sea with fishing boats to hunt for direction and fish for fishermen, and these seabirds are close friends of fishermen. Therefore, Manager Zhao, while doing a good job in tourism development, you should also pay attention to protecting the habitat of these seabirds. Zhou Yuxi, deputy director of the SS Municipal Oceanic Bureau, said solemnly.

According to preliminary statistics, there are more than 100,000 birds of more than 20 families and 60 species, including boobies, frigate birds, herons, eagles, falcons, sea ducks, rails, and rowing birds. Among them, the wild and rare birds of the island mainly include brown boobies, red-footed boobies, white-bellied frigates, swiftlets, terns, black-naped terns, etc. These are all nationally protected animals.

Director Zhou is assured that the Ocean Nation will strictly abide by the country's environmental protection laws and regulations and the Law on the Protection of Precious Animals. Not only will we not reduce the number of seabirds on the island, but we will also increase the number of seabirds in a protective and sustainable way, making the island a true seabird paradise. Zhao Kang assured with confidence.

Zhao Kang and the others are now on a maritime surveillance ship of the SS City Oceanic Bureau, on the side of Xianyue Island. There are also several staff members of the Oceanic Bureau on board, who are surveying the specific situation of the island and demarcating the boundary of the sea area leased by Zhao Kang.

This time, there is also a big controversy about the sale of the project of String Moon Island. Xianyue Island is not comparable to Jinquanyu. Even if Jinquanyu is tossed up by a private company like Zhao Kang, there will be no disastrous consequences.

The island is not only lush with vegetation, with a coverage rate of more than 70%, but also many rare birds that are protected by the state. Once the ecological environment of the island is destroyed in the process of tourism development, then this damage is irreversible, which means that there is one less home for birds, and the population of birds will decline rapidly, or even become extinct.

Therefore, there will be a group led by Deputy Director Zhou. Otherwise, as for the specific survey of the island, it would not have been possible for a deputy director to come forward in person. Field investigation of the construction environment of Jinquanyu and the development strength of the maritime country.

"You can rest assured, the Municipal Oceanic Bureau is still very sure of your construction and development work. Although there is some controversy among the leaders above, after all, it is all for the ecological environment and tourism development of HN. Your company's application for the island has also been approved, but during the development process, and for a long time to come, there will be several seabird experts from the HN Academy of Sciences stationed on Jinquanyu Island or Xianyue Island. Zhou Yuxi said.

Regrettably, in the past two decades, with the increase in human activities, the number of seabirds has declined dramatically, and some birds, such as frigate birds, are left.

Some bird scientists in China have also been researching related topics to provide a scientific basis for the dwindling population, and to provide targeted protection and rescue measures to prevent the genes of these precious species from being extinct.

However, the previous investigation and research environment was limited, so the data of some expeditions were not very comprehensive and detailed. When the Provincial Oceanic Department consulted relevant experts for advice, the other party also put forward some countermeasures and conditions.

Human encroachment on their habitats is indeed a major cause of extinction for many species, but the eventual disappearance without even realizing it is due to a lack of attention.

The giant pandas in China have made good achievements after years of hard work because of the support of national resources. The International Conservation Organization (ISCO) has downgraded the panda's status on the Red List of Threatened Species from "endangered" to "vulnerable".

Therefore, Zhao Kang's application for Xianyue Island still passed the provincial approval, and if there was improper construction behavior during the development process, it could be stopped by experts stationed on the island. As for the approval of the State Oceanic Administration, it will not be rejected after passing the strict review of the provincial and municipal departments, not to mention that this is not the first time that the maritime state has applied for the lease of islands.

"No problem, with the advice of these experts, our construction plan may be more perfect." Zhao Kang said with a smile.

"Well, you don't have to worry too much. The provincial city communicated with you alone. I would like to remind you of the security facilities on the island. The Xisha side is not very calm either, although the official power of a certain country cannot penetrate here. But some necessary defensive measures still need to be built. In addition, on the island, some firefighting equipment and rescue equipment used in emergencies also need to be improved as soon as possible. Zhou Yuxi cautiously suggested.

With the increase in tourists, officials are also worried about the safety and emergency situation of Jinquanyu. After all, the construction of the island is a new economic construction plan of the SS city government. If the Ocean Nation can become a benchmark, the future development of SS City will be unlimited, at least it may be possible to improve it to one level and two levels.

However, if the island is shut down due to a sudden tourist safety incident, the city will not only lose a large amount of revenue from selling the island, but also the new economic engine may be extinguished. Seeing that the annual income from selling land in mainland cities almost exceeds the planned budget, the leaders of SS City are also very envious, after all, with more money, they can implement their political ideas and get more opportunities for promotion.

"The company is also preparing for some professional personnel and equipment." Zhao Kang also said depressedly.

After all, some things can't be done immediately, especially if you need some elite professionals. Zhao Kang has notified SY to ask Jiang Ming to recruit relevant diving instructors, professional divers, and retired soldiers.

The South China Sea is also not calm, with the exception of territorial disputes between some countries, and some small islands on the border of small countries are either pirate stations or bases of armed criminal gangs. Zhao Kang has also always wanted to develop his own defense force, but this needs official support. In addition, Zhao Kang now knows that his weight is not very heavy, and it is not enough to attract the attention of some important people.

"Manager Zhao, this is a comprehensive historical data and survey data of Xianyue Island. The area of Island No. 1 is 0.018 square kilometers, the area of Island No. 2 is 0.021 square kilometers, and the area of Island No. 3 is 0.034 square kilometers. The land area is 0.073 km² in total. In addition, there is a coral reef of 0.03 square kilometers in the northern part of the island, including a 2-nautical-mile radius of the island, according to Zhao's previous quotation, as well as the valuation of the provincial and municipal sea area and island management departments. The total lease price for 50 years reached 1.42 million RMB. A worker who followed Zhou Yuxi, after summarizing the data, told Zhao Kang the total amount needed to buy the island this time.

Seeing that Zhao Kang and Zhou Yuxi did not react, he continued: "Among them, the lease amount of the island is 900,000 yuan, and the lease amount of the sea area with a radius of two nautical miles is 400,000 yuan. Although the reef is within the scope of the two-nautical-mile sea, due to its unique ecological environment and economic value, the lease amount is 120,000 yuan. ”

Zhou Yuxi said questioningly: "Manager Zhao, your margin in the company's account is only one million. There is still a gap of about 420,000. How are you going to make up the difference? ”

Before selling gold pearls, Zhao Kang got 1.5 million, but he didn't expect it to be gone again so soon. Zhao Kang is also anxious, and the speed of spending money is always unable to keep up with the speed of making money. If the construction of the island is based on the perfect standard of 100, then the construction progress of Jinquanyu is only at nine scales, which is really a bottomless pit.

Although I am very angry that the SS City Oceanic Bureau has calculated the coral reef with an average distance of 8 meters from the sea surface into the total fund, there is nothing to be done. After all, the lease price about the sea area is already the price of cabbage, and you don't want them to earn some extra money for themselves and fill some small coffers.

The lease of islands and sea areas is managed by the Oceanic Administration, but only with the right to manage it. Although the funds for renting the island were not handed over to the higher authorities, they were transferred to the local treasury, so their own small treasury was still very empty.

"Because the lease amount of the sea area is large this time, the superior is not allowed to receive it in installments again. Therefore, Manager Zhao should solve the funds as soon as possible. Considering that it would take a certain amount of time to raise funds, the Party Committee of the Oceanic Bureau and the leaders of the provincial department gave the Ocean Country a week. If the funds are not in place for a week, it will be dealt with as a breach of contract. A certain amount of security will be deducted accordingly. Of course, if Manager Zhao's funds are really tight, he can consider leasing only the island to suspend the leasing plan. Zhou Yuxi added.

Of course, the government should avoid risks in advance. The total amount of funds this time is the largest sea and land transaction since the establishment of SS City. If Zhao Kang's investment fails, it will not leave a stain on their qualifications.

"Zhou Bureau rest assured that after seven days, all the funds will be transferred to the company's account. Although the cost of renting an island is beyond the company's plan, I believe it can be solved. Zhao Kang said confidently.

It seems that these leaders want to really investigate the financial strength of the Ocean Country this time, and even the back road that Zhao Kang can think of has been blocked.

Loans from banks are no longer possible, and now they still owe 500,000 yuan of loans to the HN Rural Credit Cooperative, and if they use the company as collateral, they will be a bit suspicious of duplicate mortgages, and now the state is making every effort to crack down on this kind of loan behavior in financial loans.

The rest that can be mortgaged is the Xianghe, but according to the mortgage halved, the amount of the loan is not enough.
