Chapter 248: Typhoon
As an island nation with a development index of 0.73, there is a huge difference in the level of economic development between East Malaysia and West Malaysia, with West Malaysia enjoying the huge benefits of shipping trade due to its proximity to the Straits of Malacca, and the people there basically live the life of a junior developed country.
In comparison, many parts of East Malaysia are like the Third World, where there are many indigenous people, the highways are worse than the national highways in China, the roads are very congested, the gas stations are very scarce, and the cars are struggling to drive on the roads.
Lu Wei made his way to the capital of Sabah as fast as he could, arriving in Kota Kinabalu on May 8.
Kota Kinabalu is a thriving place for tourism and fishing in Malaysia, and is also an important industrial and commercial town in Malaysia, with a population of more than 700,000 people and a developed economy, known as the "City of Fire".
Another thing that excites Lu Wei and others is that Kota Kinabalu is a rare capital with a Chinese population in Malaysia, with a Chinese population accounting for 50% of the city's population.
There are many hotels in Kota Kinabalu, the most famous is the LeMeridien Hotel located in the center of the city, with five-star hardware level, and most of the waiters know Chinese, English, Japanese, Malay and other languages.
"Open three of the best suites and ask for the best service!"
Chen Longcai said to the front desk arrogantly.
The sweet-looking front desk was overjoyed, bowed and said, "Sir, I'll arrange it for you right away!" ”
A one-day stay in a premium suite costs $1,900, and three rooms can bring a lot of benefits to the hotel.
"Ah, comfort!"
In the high-end suite on the tenth floor, Chen Long was lying on his back on the big bed in the state of "big", humming incessantly.
"Stop humming. Chen Long, you hurry up and check on the Internet, if you can buy a ticket back to China, if you have a ticket, we had better return to China today or tomorrow. Lu Wei reminded.
"Ah, I'm going back tomorrow. This place is not bad, why don't you play here for a few days before leaving, Sabah is said to be a tourist destination in Malaysia. ”
Zhang Caixia on the side glanced at her son and said, "Xiaolong, don't think about playing at this time, go back to China first, and come back to play when you have time later." She was so disgusted with this place, no matter how beautiful the scenery around her was, she couldn't stop her eagerness to go home.
Long Chen got up from the bed, "Okay. I went to the front desk and asked if they offered to book airfares. With that, he ran downstairs.
Chen Shirong was sitting in the living room watching TV, watching the host chatter in the screen, silent and silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
The failure of this business really made him unforgettable, and more than one billion yuan was smashed, and not a single blister could come out. also let his son owe others 300 million, if the money is not repaid. The entire Chen family can be said to be bankrupt and in a slump.
Yes, he is safe now, abandoned the factory, and achieved a stop loss. But is it really willing?
I believe that no one will be reconciled.
Especially for someone of Chen Shirong's character.
He wanted to move back to the first bureau and get his factory back up and running.
Shiram is dead, and the warlord of Pocha is a warlord who is slightly friendly to the Chinese, if he can catch the line of Pocha......
Chen Shirong thought so in his heart, but he would never bring it up to anyone in the room.
He knows. With his current situation, not to mention that his son Chen Long does not agree, even his wife Zhang Caixia will become a member of the fierce opposition.
And he himself does not have any capital to convince others.
Can...... Did you really go back like that?
Chen Shirong thought with annoyance that at this time, reason told him that returning to China was the wisest choice.
At this time, a piece of news appeared on TV that surprised him.
"At 8 a.m. on May 9, Typhoon Subir will land on Borneo Island, and the whole territory of East Malaysia is within the scope of the typhoon, and Subir is a large typhoon with a central wind force of more than 12......
Chen Shirong only understood half of the words of the weather forecaster, but the scene of the typhoon raging in the picture made him clear that a typhoon was coming tomorrow.
When the typhoon passes, the means of transportation by sea, land and air will come to a standstill, and their group may not be able to walk.
Chen Shirong was secretly happy in his heart, could it be that this was the last chance God gave him?
……
Chen Long, who was seeking to book a ticket from the front desk downstairs, returned to the suite with some frustration and said to Zhang Caixia: "Mom, they told me that there will be a typhoon coming tomorrow, and the airline will not be able to provide air services, so we can't leave for the time being." ”
"Can't go?" Zhang Caixia was taken aback, "How should this be?" ”
"There are many typhoons in Malaysia in May and June, several every year, and airports and ports are closed at this time." As a local, Li Meixiang explained to everyone.
"Can't leave for a while?"
Lu Wei narrowed his eyes and muttered for a while: "Then I can only stay here for two more days." ”
In fact, it doesn't matter if Lu Wei can go or not, he has a plane shuttle mark, four coordinate points, one is located in the 2186 plane of the machine, 2 are located in S City, and one is set to go there, and one shuttle, he can return to S City.
"It's good to take a trip here and try the food." Chen Long said that there are no warlords around Kota Kinabalu, it is much safer than Mehraban City, and there are five-star hotels, so it doesn't matter if you return to China two days late.
"That'...... All right. Zhang Caixia still glanced at her husband with no peace of mind, and when she saw that he didn't have the same face as usual, she swallowed the words back in her mouth.
……
On the second day, the typhoon passed.
Sure enough, just like the picture on TV, the whining wind, the gray sky, the uprooted trees on the roadside, and the monstrous flood on the seaside, what came into view was the arrival of natural disasters and the apocalyptic scene of the world.
The glass windows were rattled, the rain formed small rivers on the glass, and the curtains in the room were blown by the strong wind that peeked through the cracks.
Standing in front of the window with a wine glass in his hand, and seeing a motorcycle on the road in the distance being blown away by the strong wind, Lu Wei shook his head and said: "This city is very beautiful, I don't know if it can withstand such a violent devastation?" ”
"The typhoon here, the scene is indeed more terrifying than that of S City, this is still the central wind force of 12, if it is a wind force of 16 or 7, then how big is the loss?" Chen Long on the side asked.
Typhoons can cause massive damage to trees, homes, and farmland, and sometimes a super typhoon can wipe out a country's public infrastructure for 50 years.
"Reconstruction, we're used to it." Li Meixiang looked out the window, shrugged her shoulders, and said disappreciably. (To be continued......)
