Leaving Pinghegang County and entering Gaspar County, the road is very desolate, sparsely populated, the residential areas along the road are also abandoned, and the unusually fertile farmland, plantations, and mountains and forests are also much more desolate and overgrown with weeds.

The original sea people migrated out from here on a large scale, and due to transportation, population reasons, the government of the Kingdom of Tortuga did not move people in.

However, it was better to enter Livingstone County for a while, where 1/3 of the land in Livingstone County belonged to the royal family, and on these lands, farmers in uniform were busy toiling, weeding, fertilizing, watering, and picking, and these farmers came from various countries, all veterans of growing vegetables and tending to orchards, and these people numbered more than 2,000 people, distributed in 47 vast and fertile plots of land in the Central District, the Southern District, the Pinghe Port District, and the Western District.

The 47 plots of land owned by the royal family, with a combined area of more than 500,000 acres, are planted with prehistoric vegetables and fruit trees.

Chen Rui saw a 2,888 yuan fish scale fruit in the Dinghai Walmart supermarket from the orchard here, where 300,000 fish scale fruits were harvested last year.

Leaving Livingstone County and entering Gracenali County, there is a Foreign Regiment, the 3rd Foreign Infantry Battalion, a total of 350 men, and a 170-member Border Patrol Team belonging to the Royal Army, patrolling the border and combating illegal entry.

In fact, the Foreign Legion is no longer technically a Foreign Legion, and 70% of the officers and soldiers of the Foreign Legion and their families have received Tortuga nationality, and their faith is no longer fighting for the dollar, but for the king and the country.

Chen Zhaoqing has been here several times because of his work, and he knows the battalion commander here, a Frenchman. Now a native of Tortuga of French origin, the battalion commander and his family have received Tortuga nationality.

However, due to military regulations, Chen Zhaoqing was not allowed to enter the barracks.

Chen Zhaoqing's destination is a small village of less than 400 people.

The village is inhabited by coffee plantation workers and their families.

The coffee plantation is the property of the royal family, and this asset has to be traced for a long time, which involves the second phase of the island purchase fee of the secret agreement of the port of peace. Budi's regime acquired only a third of the territory of the sea. There is also a Rafal in the south. Hurd government.

Therefore, Jose Si. Budi's regime did not fully fulfill the peace port secret treaty, and as compensation, Chen Rui obtained a part of the sea's coffee plantations, bauxite minerals.

The coffee plantation here is one of more than a dozen coffee plantations, managed by a coffee company owned by the Crown Assets, which is a humble property owned by the Crown Assets, but it is also a very large industry.

The air of the sea is fresh. The absence of pollution, the humid climate, and the high mountains are foggy and rainy all year round, which makes for excellent coffee.

After the introduction of advanced coffee planting, roasting and grinding processes, the taste of Hai's coffee is more mellow and aromatic. It tastes very smooth,.

More than a dozen coffee plantations produce 46 tons of coffee every year, which is not only supplied to the island of Tortuga, but also to China, becoming the most high-end coffee in China and widely praised by coffee customers.

Chen Zhaoqing arrived in the village of the people of the sea.

The residents of the village warmly welcomed Chen Zhaoqing's arrival.

It can be seen that Chen Zhaoqing has come to this village for more than the first time.

Before. In order to improve the basic living conditions of this village, I have come many times.

The residents here are very familiar with Chen Zhaoqing and are also very enthusiastic, and they have brought out their own food to entertain Chen Zhaoqing.

It can be seen that the village is richer than before. New houses have been built, food is more abundant, and there is meat, everyone looks very strong, very healthy, and the people who are separated by a border line of the sea, the mental outlook has been greatly improved, and the people who look at the sea across the border line have a kind of arrogance in their bones, and it is difficult for anyone to think that when they were hungry in the past, they used to use mud cakes to satisfy their hunger, a kind of "mud biscuits" made of three ingredients: earth, salt and butter.

As workers on the coffee plantations of the coffee company, as well as their families, they became one of the few people allowed to become Tortuga nationality after the incorporation of the North-Western Province into the Kingdom of Tortuga.

Their pride in the people who live on the other side of the border is also that they think that they have the identity of a rich country, and their lives are relatively rich, and they have a sense of superiority, just like the South Koreans have a sense of superiority over the North Koreans.

However, although they were rich, since the north-western province was incorporated into the kingdom of Tortuga, the workers of the coffee plantations were paid a little more in Tortuga than ordinary workers.

However, the living infrastructure of the village is relatively backward, there are no schools, no clinics, no safe and sanitary water supply system, as well as electricity, grocery stores, etc., the people of the village still retain some bad living habits, they are used to grabbing food with their hands, people share a water source with livestock, they find witch doctors when they are sick, and the corpses of their ancestors are dug up and circled several times a year.

Chen Zhaoqing's purpose in coming to the village was to coordinate with the government and government to improve the living infrastructure of the village and teach them to change their primitive living habits.

Thanks to Chen Zhaoqing's efforts, the village has changed somewhat, there is a clinic, at least now the villagers know to go to the clinic when they are sick, they will not go to the witch doctor anymore, there is a primary school, like other primary schools on Tortuga Island, the school teaches Chinese, English, basic arithmetic, simple natural and geographical knowledge.

There is a small shop in the village that sells some daily necessities, snacks, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and the like.

The lives of the people living in the village have really made a difference.

This is one of the villages in the Northwest Province, and there are hundreds of villages like this in the Northwest Province, with 50,000 or 60,000 people, and more than 30 in the Binh Hoa Port District, which are distributed in different places.

The government and the government will send capable staff to these villages to improve or change these things, so that they can break free from ignorance.

Evening.

Chen Zhaoqing returned to Pinghegang, where he lived, and as a section-level government functionary, the government provided him with a place to live. A house of 6 or 70 square meters, very spacious, all kinds of living facilities are also very complete, and the living is also very comfortable, and there is an Audi for transportation, the only deficiency is. Wife and son are not around.

Chen Zhaoqing's son is 2 and a half years old, born on the island, a big character, called Chen Dafu, the name is quite earthy, Chen Zhaoqing's uncle Chen Guodong personally took the name, this meaning is very heavy, Chen Guodong himself is a prince. The son is the king, just like the ancient elders or teachers gave the names of the juniors or students, with this relationship, the relationship is a little closer.

The next day.

Chen Zhaoqing got up early in the morning, brushed his teeth and washed his face, had a casual breakfast, and dressed very formally, in a suit and leather shoes. Lined with a blue shirt and a black tie. The face is clean-shaven, with short hair, the whole person looks neat and neat, with a brown briefcase in his hand, sitting in an Audi car.

It's hard for you to believe. A few years ago, he worked in Nanwan as an assembly line, with a salary of 3 or 4,000 yuan a month, tired and hard, and returned to the same job day after day. Boredom, numbness, and can't see the future, a loser in life, the current Chen Zhao is proud of his youth, with a bright future, and a very successful person in life.

Chen Zhaoqing drove to the government and government office building in the center of Pinghegang County.

It is a four-story Western-style building with a very large footprint.

In the past, it was the government office building of the sea, but after the North-West Province was merged into Tortuga Island and the North-West Province was divided into four districts, it was slightly renovated and renovated to become the government office building of the Binhwa Port District.

This office building accommodates more than 300 people, and Chen Zhaoqing's Finance Bureau works on the third floor of the office building.

Chen Zhaoqing parked the car in the parking lot downstairs and stepped out of the car.

"Brother Qing, it's early." A young man walked out of the car next to him and said hello to Chen Zhaoqing.

The young man's name is Chen Zhaofeng, and he is from Malaysia.

The Malaysian branch of the Chen family, because of the late Qing Dynasty to escape the war, migrated to Malaysia, intermarried with the Chinese family of the time, multiplied, and settled in the local area, the Malaysian branch still maintains the traditional Chinese culture.

Chen Zhaofeng's family is a branch of the Malaysian branch, a branch that has branched out in Malaysia, and has long been cut off from the Malaysian branch.

Therefore, when Tortuga was founded, Chen Zhaofeng's family did not join the nationality of Tortuga.

Until, last year, Chen Zhaofeng happened to hear his grandfather tell him that his ancestors came from far away in Dahe County, Xijiang, China, at the end of the Qing Dynasty due to the war, his ancestors moved to Jambi Province, Malaysia, and then moved to Bengkulu, where he now lives, I hope Chen Zhaofeng has the opportunity to go to the ancestral land to see, worship, and recognize his ancestors.

Chinese, especially the older generation of Chinese, respect traditions very much, pay attention to clan bloodlines, and return to their roots and ancestors when they fall leaves. In the past, there was no chance, but now that China has been reforming and opening up for many years, there is a chance, Chen Zhaofeng's grandfather hopes that Chen Zhaofeng can return to his ancestral land to worship and recognize his ancestors.

Chen Zhaofeng's heart moved when he heard this, and before his grandfather could finish speaking, he ran into the ancestral house and pulled out a yellowed genealogy from an old box, and immediately matched it.

Chen Zhaofeng suddenly became excited, and he almost jumped up with the family tree.

Unexpected,.

I didn't expect that my family was really a branch of the Chen family on Tortuga Island, and my ancestors had the same ancestor as the Chen royal family on Tortuga Island, and the Malaysian branch of the three branches of the famous surname Chen on Tortuga Island.

I didn't expect that my family had been fishermen since their great-grandfathers, and they suddenly had a very prominent identity, a branch of the royal family, a prominent and wealthy identity.

He has a certain understanding of the three branches of the Chen clan on the island of Tortuga, the Yamato Chan, the Feng and Chan, and the Malaysian Chan.

The clansmen of the three Chen clans can not only get a villa-like house in Qingshan Town, Tortuga Island, but also receive a generous royal allowance every year, with more than 100,000 US dollars a year and as little as 40,000 US dollars, even if they don't need to work, it is enough to ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing.

Moreover, although the three branches of the Chen family do not have the privileges on the surface of Tortuga Island, there are still many hidden privileges, such as the freedom to choose a job, join the army, enter politics, and enter the company under the royal assets is very easy, and the promotion is often a little faster than others, and there are more opportunities.

When Chen Zhaofeng knew that he was the third branch of the Chen family, he knew that his fate had been rewritten, and in the future, he would no longer have to brave the wind and waves at sea, the scorching sun, and the boring fishing experience, and he could think about living the life he wanted to live and live the life of a rich man.

Then, Chen Zhaofeng was a little surprised after telling his family that his family was one of the three Malaysian branches of the Chen family on Tortuga Island, as well as several uncles.

Then, more than 40 people from Bengkulu, a small Malaysian branch, returned to their ancestors, came to Tortuga Island, took out the family tree, worshiped the temple, and then, continued their generation, joined the nationality of Tortuga Island, allocated a house in Castle Peak Town, and from this year, they can receive royal allowances.

Chen Zhaofeng entered the government department and was assigned to the Pinghe Port Construction Bureau as a clerk.

"Morning, Xiaofeng." Chen Zhaoqing nodded with a smile and said.

The two walked up the stairs to the third floor and chatted casually.

Chen Zhaoqing came to the third floor, met acquaintances from time to time, greeted each other, and then walked into his office, as the head of the Finance Bureau, an important bureau section, Chen Zhaoqing also has an office, and he is in charge of 12 people.

"Morning, Section Chief Chen, it's so early today, seeing Section Chief Chen smiling, he's in a good mood." A clerk walked into the office with a teapot and enthusiastically poured Chen Zhaoqing a cup of tea.

"Xiaolin, inform everyone to come to my office and have a meeting in the morning." Chen Zhaoqing picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said to Lin Senmu.

"Okay, Section Chief Chen."

A few minutes later, everyone crowded into Chen Zhaoqing's office.

Looking at the dozen or so people under him, Chen Zhaoqing nodded with satisfaction, and was a little proud, he was an ordinary high school graduate in charge of 12 subordinates who graduated from prestigious schools.

The 12 people are all elite, capable, have excellent ability, do things with a strong Tortuga style of doing things, vigorous and resolute, the worst academic qualifications are undergraduates, including many of the world's famous universities and Tortuga National University graduates, before, Chen Zhaoqing worked in Nanwan when he never thought that there would be this day-

After spending two days on Tortuga Island, Chen Rui was ready to enter the Phoenician space. (To be continued.) )
