Either the area is too small, less than ten acres, and only one villa can be built on the island.

Either the island is completely developed, and various living facilities such as luxury villas and swimming pools have been built on the island, which is not what Chen Rui wants.

The only one is located in the Gulf of California, Mexico, with an area of more than 150 square kilometers, but because the price of Serralvo Island is too high, as high as 350 million US dollars, Chen Rui had no choice but to give up.

Dawson. Seeing Chen Rui's disappointed expression, Berg opened his mouth and said to Chen Rui, "Mr. Chen, don't you like any of the more than 600 islands listed for sale?" ”

"No, but I like the island of Serralvo, which is located in the Gulf of California in Mexico and has an area of more than 150 square kilometers, but unfortunately, it is too expensive." Chen Rui smiled and said.

Dawson. Berg took a sip of his coffee and said, "It's a shame, but it's very rare that an island with an area of more than 150 square kilometers is being put up for sale, and I think there are a lot of rich people who are very interested in this island." "Speaking of which, Dawson. Berg paused, then continued, "I don't know what Mr. Chen wants from the islands he wants to buy. ”

Chen Rui pondered in his heart for a while, and then said, "First, the area should be large, and the area of the best island is more than a few dozen square kilometers, and second, the island has fresh water resources. Third, the sovereign ownership of islands should not impose too many restrictions on the development of islands. ”

After listening to Chen Rui's request, Dawson. Berg furrowed his brow. After thinking for a while, he said to Chen Rui, "I know that there is an island that meets your requirements, but the sovereign state of this island is Haiti, which is not a very good choice." ”

Haiti, an island nation in the northern Caribbean, was the world's first independent black nation, one of the poorest countries in the world, and one of the least developed countries.

Seventy-five per cent of the population lives in abject poverty, and unemployment is as high as 75 per cent.

Haiti is in turmoil, politics has become commonplace, and it is a paradise for dictators, dictators, tyrants, and monarchs.

Beginning with Haiti's gaining independence, in 1806, a coup d'état, the first ruler and first king of Haiti, de Salin, was assassinated.

In 1820, Christopher committed suicide by swallowing a gun in a coup d'état.

In 1843, a mulatto Charles. Elar staged a coup d'état.

In 1859, the Duke of Tabara, who was Chief of Staff, Fabre. General Gervre launched the government. change

Between 1908 and 1915, Haiti underwent six coups and d'état, and eight presidents were replaced.

In 1946, a coup d'état, in 1950,

In 2004, a military rebellion,

There has never been a country in the world that is accustomed to taking coups and changes as usual as Haiti.

In this context, Haiti's public security can be imagined, guns are rampant, shootings, kidnapping, racking incidents emerge one after another, public security is extremely poor, located in the capital Port-au-Prince is a dangerous place, and the local police are also retreating.

So, Dawson. Berg told Chen Rui that buying islands in Haiti was not a good choice.

"You're Tortuga." Chen Rui said.

The reason why Chen Rui said that it was Tortuga Island is very simple.

Although Haiti has a long coastline, it has very few islands.

There is the island of Vash in the south, the island of Gonave in the middle, and the island of Tortuga in the northwest.

Among them, the island of Tortuga has a precedent for being sold in Haiti's history.

In 1971, Don. Pierresson and the Haitian government proposed a contract to obtain a concession to the island of Tortuga for a period of 99 years, in an attempt to establish a free port of Tortuga.

The so-called 99-year concession can refer to the 99-year lease of Hong Kong by the British to the Qing government and government.

Dawson. Berg nodded and said to Chen Rui, "Yes, the Haitian government intends to divide an uninhabited piece of land in the eastern part of Tortuga Island, with an area of about 100 square kilometers, into more than a dozen pieces for sale, and the area of each piece of land is divided into 5~10 square kilometers, and the price of each piece of land is about 2 million ~ 5 million US dollars. ”

Chen Rui nodded.

100 square kilometers is a lot of area.

To take a simple example, the area of Futian District in the center of Shenzhen and Shenzhen is 78.8 square kilometers.

100 square kilometers is equivalent to 1.27 Fu and Tian districts.

The population density of Fukuda District is 16,900 people per square kilometer.

At this density, 1.69 million people could live in 100 square kilometres.

100 square kilometers, which is more than half of the island of Tortuga.

About 100 square kilometers of land is divided into more than a dozen pieces, and the price of a piece is 2 million ~ 5 million US dollars, so that it takes about 80 million ~ 100 million US dollars to buy all 100 square kilometers, and the price is not low.

It makes sense that Serralvo Island in the Gulf of California sold for $350 million.

For one, the island of Serralvo has 156 square kilometres, which is 1.5 times the amount of land to be sold on the island of Tortuga.

Second, after the buyer bought the island of Serralvo, the entire island became the buyer's private land, and half of the ownership of the island belonged to the Haitian government and government when the land on the island of Tortuga was purchased.

Thirdly, and most importantly, Haiti's political and political instability has been counted from the beginning of Haiti's independence and independence, and more than a dozen successful military coups and d'état have been carried out in this island country, and coups and d'état are very frequent, and it is a paradise for dictators, dictators, tyrants, and monarchs.

In that case, you have now spent $100 million to buy more than half of the land on Tortuga Island, and wait until another president comes to power in a military coup and legislates to forcibly repossess the land you own on Tortuga Island, or pay a huge purchase fee.

This is very likely.

This is often the case in the Caribbean and some countries in South America, but instead of land ownership, it is oil.

In 2006, Bolivian President Moraes announced the nationalization of foreign oil companies on the country's soil, along with the deployment of troops to 53 oil fields throughout the country.

Argentina too! Venezuela too! So is Cuba!

The phrase 'oil nationalization' was all nationalized.
