Located relatively close to South America, the island is one of eight coral reefs off the coast of Venezuela, suitable for deep and shallow diving. The vegetation on www.biquge.info island is very small, most commonly palm trees. However, the area around Blanquilla Island is rich in aquatic resources and is frequented by fishermen.

From a development point of view, Blanquilla Island does not have any advantages, it is far from the city, and there are no other living facilities on the island except for an airport and an improvised port.

Even for the development of tourism, Blanquilla Island is not suitable. The scenery here is good, but the Caribbean islands are dotted with beautiful scenery, and there are too many islands with beautiful scenery, and Blanquilla Island has no advantage at all.

"It's less than 1,800 kilometers away from the Panama Canal and 2,300 kilometers away from Miami in a straight line, so it's a little off." Lu Yang commented, "If it is only used as a foothold, it is enough, and it is more suitable for building a deep-water port." However, as a naval base, the initial investment will not be small, and the area is a bit small. ”

The naval base that Lu Yang wants to build, that has to make the people of the United States nervous, otherwise it will be meaningless, from this point of view, Blanquilla Island is indeed a bit small.

Despite this, Lu Yang still will not refuse the deal. Either way, it's a good deal. In today's world, it is not easy to gain sovereignty over an island. Human activity has spread across the globe, and there are very few islands that have not been discovered. Although it is common to buy islands, it is generally the ownership of the islands, and the sovereignty is still owned by the country concerned.

It's not easy to buy the sovereignty of an island.

This time, the Venezuelan government used the island to pay off the debt, and it must have sold its sovereignty together, otherwise, no one would want $10 million for such an island!

In addition, Lu Yang also has to consider other factors that affect the transaction, such as the obstruction of the United States. The whole of Latin America is regarded as their own backyard by the United States, and they will never allow the Chinese forces to enter. Wasn't this the reason for the GB missile crisis back then?

Lu Yang speculated that the news of Venezuela's transfer of islands four years ago was not necessarily fake, but in the end, the deal could not be concluded due to the intervention of many parties.

The news of the Venezuelan delegation's visit to Penglai Island did not attract much attention, and all eyes were on the conflict between the Pattani YSL country and the Thai government. Because of Huami's confrontation in Southeast Asia, the South China Sea is considered by the international community to be one of the most likely areas for war, especially after the independence of Pattani and the acquisition of a new military base in China.

The truth is just as everyone expected, and now there is a problem here.

Unlike the general public, the military and military enthusiasts of various countries pay attention to the combat effectiveness of the White Crane fighter. This fighter, which was highly anticipated before, but was actually sold in the cold, justified itself in this air battle, and at the same time once again confirmed the statement that it must be a high-quality product produced by Penglai Group. In the latest issue of Jane's Defence Weekly, the Hakutsuru fighter is considered the most suitable fourth-generation fighter for developing countries.

The world is still watching closely to see if the war will expand. After the air war, there was a lot of panic in Thailand, and the last civil war left too deep an impression on them, and the hundreds of thousands of casualties left an unknown number of families grief-stricken.

In contrast, the country of Pattani is calmer, and its citizens are not afraid of war. From this point, it can be seen that the gap in the fighting spirit of the two sides.

The two countries immediately intervened, and under their mediation, Pattanii YSL and Thailand negotiated. Although the losses of the Thai side were not small, they did fire the first shot, and this is ironclad evidence, and they cannot be allowed to cheat. At the same time, Powe had no intention of going to war with Thailand, and after returning the two pilots of the opposing side, the air battle incident came to an end for the time being.

This result has relieved the whole of Southeast Asia, which is most afraid of being drawn into the whirlpool of conflict between the two great powers. However, there are also some countries that are disappointed, such as the Lion City and Fuso. These two countries jumped up and down after the incident, lighting fires everywhere, lest the world be chaotic.

Lu Yang, who is now concerned about deals with Venezuela, met with the Venezuelan delegation in person two days later. This time, Venezuela intends to purchase 30 White Crane fighters, and once the deal is completed, Venezuela's air force will completely surpass its neighbors and become the strongest air force in Latin America!

"Alfredo's ambitions are not small, 30 White Crane fighters, are they going to fight with the United States to the end?" Lu Yang said to Song Minglun.

"It's really a little strange, I remember that three years ago they had already purchased 10 J-10 export models FC-20, and their Air Force also had the Su-30, which was already strong in Latin American countries." Song Minglun agreed.

"Since they need it, give it to them! Give Venezuela the same treatment as Pakistan and export the full version of the White Crane fighter to them! Personnel training and logistical maintenance, also give them discounts, as long as they can take Blanquilla Island. ”

The news that Venezuela used Blanquilla Island to pay off its debts was not able to hide it from the intelligence agencies of the United States, and the news was not leaked on Penglai Island, but in Venezuela itself. The United States has an early layout in Latin America and has a great influence, and each country has its intelligence personnel. Moreover, Latin American countries are generally more corrupt and corrupt, and even the top level of the country will inevitably be bought by the Chinese people. In front of the people of the United States, Latin American countries are almost transparent.

Surprisingly, the people of the United States have no intention of concealing it. The New York Times was the first to disclose this news, which attracted widespread attention in the United States. The rejection of the United States by the International Space Agency has hurt the self-esteem of the world boss of the United States, and now they see that the Chinese people dare to break into their backyard, and public opinion immediately explodes.

"The conspiracy of the Chinese people, the backyard of the United States is no longer safe!" The Washington Post

"The dragon of expansion, Huaxia wants to build a military base in the Caribbean!" Los Angeles Times

"Will the GB Missile Crisis Strike Again?" Wall Street Journal

"The United States faces the biggest security threat ever!" Christian Monitor

It's not just the people of the United States who feel the crisis, but the Europeans also feel threatened, and it is only more than 6,000 kilometers from Blanquilla Island to the European continent. If Huaxia builds a military base, this will be the closest time for the Huaxia Navy to the heart of Europe since modern times.

"Huaxia military forces enter the Caribbean!" The Times

"The Chinese Navy enters the Atlantic, are the European countries ready?" Bild

"Huami's hegemony affects Europe!" Journal de Paris

The Chinese media still learned the news from the Omi media, and there was no large-scale report in China after that. However, the prime minister asked Lu Yang about the matter, and Lu Yang explained the situation. In the final analysis, this is still a matter for Huaxia.

"Lu Yang, we still have to be cautious in this matter." The prime minister said, "The people of the United States will not allow us to enter their backyard, as the GB missile crisis between them and the former Soviet Union has shown." A few years ago, we also tried, but gave up. ”

Lu Yang shook his head and said: "Prime Minister, the so-called times have changed, and what could not be done before may not be impossible now." The people of the United States are so happy in East Asia and the South China Sea, what happened to us in the Caribbean? If they don't respect us, why should we care about them? I don't believe that the people of the United States dare to go to war! ”

The prime minister paused: "The central government will not express its position on this matter for the time being, so you should operate it." However, on behalf of the central government, I can promise that there is no problem in the country if the Venezuelan side wants to forgive the debts and continue to take out loans! ”

Lu Yang could hear that the high-level still wanted to get Blanquilla Island, but they were a little hesitant for fear of a direct conflict with the United States.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to me!"

Lu Yang did this not on the spur of the moment, he believed that the people of the United States would definitely not dare to go to war now. If it was a few years ago, the people of the United States might have the courage to do this, but now, they have to weigh it themselves.

The United States dared to bully Huaxia before, relying on their advanced military technology, but after Penglai Island, Huaxia has surpassed the United States in military technology in many aspects.

In terms of military strength, Huaxia also has the strength to fight with the United States. In terms of the navy, Huaxia already has three aircraft carrier formations, and if you count the two under construction on Penglai Island, there are five. In terms of the Air Force, the number of fifth-generation fighters installed in Huaxia has reached 70% of that of the United States, and the number of fourth-generation fighters is second only to the United States.

What's more, there are also two aerospace fighters on Penglai Island!

Moreover, Huaxia has good reason to enter the Caribbean.

Such major negotiations did not come to fruition in the short term, and Lu Yang, through the Venezuelan delegation, extended an invitation to their president, Alfredo, and the Venezuelan representatives seemed to be very happy. As for the matter of the White Crane fighter, the two sides put it down first, and then they can talk about it together.

In the beginning of the school season in September, Liu Qiangdong took his son to Penglai Island, and Lu Yang helped arrange the enrollment. In addition, Su Yan's daughter Feng Ya was also admitted to the Chinese Department of Penglai University. Feng Ya studied liberal arts, and her college entrance examination score was 613 points, which was enough to go to Fudan University. However, she finally chose Penglai University.

In fact, although Penglai University has not been established for a long time, only more than a year, however, its starting point is very high, the establishment of the school is a book, and its reputation is very large. As the first comprehensive university on Penglai Island, Lu Yang has never been stingy in his investment in Penglai University, and the professors of Penglai University are also first-class scholars at home and abroad. Under such circumstances, Penglai University's admission score ranked twelfth in China.

Zhu Xiaotong, Xingxing, and Lingling all came back from the capital, which made Lu Yang very happy, and he was at home alone during this time, and he seemed a little lonely. (To be continued.) )
