Although the Bahamas is a colony of the British, don't expect the British to pay more attention to the security here, for the British, the Bahamas is only the most inconspicuous of the huge colonies of the United Kingdom, except for smuggling to the United States, the Bahamas does not seem to have any value in existence. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

And after the end of the American Civil War, this only value became a chicken rib, so it is not difficult to understand why the Bahamas is empty of beautiful scenery, but no one wants to settle here.

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it can't be eaten as a meal, and it is a hooligan to only talk about feelings and interests.

Li Mu wants to turn the Bahamas into a tourist resort, not just talking, as an American in the New England area, although he only spent one winter in Springfield, it does not prevent Li Mu from understanding how terrible the winter in New England is, last winter was better, the snow was not heavy, Will said that one year in the winter of Springfield fell for six months, the snow on the ground was more than one person, and hundreds of people froze to death in the whole Springfield.

Springfield and New York are at the same latitude, basically how cold the winter in Springfield is, how cold the winter in New York is, Miami opposite Grand Bahama Island is known for its sun and sand in the future, if Li Mu makes Grand Bahama Island a tourist attraction, then the house built is really not for sale.

As for the safety matter, there is really no need to worry, the American tycoons in these years are almost as afraid of death as Li Mu, and the gunmen raised at home are dozens or hundreds of people, and they can be used in the army at critical moments.

Green Giles believed Li Mu's words, or rather, Green Giles didn't mean to dig into it at all, reminding him that if he fulfilled his obligations, he would be done, and people like Li Mu would obviously not be treated in a normal way, even Washington would have to consider Li Mu's influence.

The dinner in the evening was very rich, Li Mu and they brought all kinds of food, held a barbecue party on the beach, and the people who got up in the white got a few huge bird creatures, and after the roast, the aroma was overflowing, but because they couldn't name them, no one dared to eat them.

In the end, one of the warriors mustered up the courage to taste it, and then found that the meat was unusually delicious, and everyone immediately put their worries behind them, and these birds became the most popular food.

Will is still good when he is not around, Gloria drank some wine and began to sing, singing "Katyusha", Bai Qi led more than a dozen shirtless warriors to dance, Li Mu found that their dance was very similar to the Maori hula, and later asked to know that this is a local traditional dance in Cuba, and it is a personal dance.

Well, this dance doesn't really match Katyusha, but who cares.

The night was extremely happy, the pleasant scenery of the beach, the gentle and warm sea breeze, the pure and deep night sky, the melodious singing and impassioned dancing have become part of Li Mu's memory, and the soldiers can finally come out of the battlefield filled with gunpowder and enjoy a rare moment of tranquility.

Early the next morning, Li Mu asked Bai Qi to take people to find the legendary Lake of Fire, and asked Glynn Giles to go to Nassau to explore the possibility of buying Grand Bahama Island, and he stayed on this beach to build a wooden house that could live in people.

Well, whether you can buy it or not, Li Mu plans to live in it first, like this kind of uninhabited desert island, as long as you live in it, you can take care of it, and the ownership of the island after a long time is really uncertain.

"Build a wooden house here - Reem, are you going to live here permanently?" Gloria has doubts about Li Mu's plans, mainly because Will is not here, and if Will is also there, it is estimated that Gloria will be happy.

"I'm going to build a villa here, and then we can come here for a vacation in the winter." Li Muhe took it out.

"What a great idea!" Gloria shuddered when she thought of winter in Springfield.

It's too cold, there is no collective heating these days, and in Springfield winter heating is all by the fireplace, and the fireplace is really not very effective.

"Do you see the water there? Go get your goggles, you can play scuba diving. Li Mu continued to tempt Gloria, hiding her true purpose in eating, drinking, and having fun.

Li Mu has been testing paragliding, so far it has been tested to the third version, and although it can't really fly yet, it's getting closer and closer to flying.

When Li Mu first ordered the goggles, he took into account the problem of manpower, basically one in the family, this kind of goggles uses natural rubber, the sealing effect is still good, and there is a certain waterproof effect in the water.

In fact, there is no industrial pollution in the sea in this year, the Bahamas in the 21st century is a holy place for diving, not to mention in the nineteenth century, Li Mu and they take a small boat ashore, they all have the feeling of floating in the air, in the offshore waters, the sea water is crystal clear, you can easily see the corals on the bottom of the sea, as well as the swimming fish between the corals, this water quality is not much of a problem even if you don't wear glasses.

"What is diving?" Gloria, the big Lori, doesn't understand.

This is also normal, there is no computer or TV these years, Gloria's native bun came to Cuba this time for the first time in her life to see the sea, when it comes to diving, only Li Mu knows that there is this sport, and even if others know, they will not regard it as a game.

"Forget it, you can go to the captain and ask him to get you a boat." Li Mu suddenly thought that there were sharks in the sea, and dancing with sharks in the Bahamas in the 21st century was a recreational project, but now it is the nineteenth century, these sharks have not yet been domesticated, and God knows if they will want to taste the taste of the little girls.

"Cut, then I might as well go pick up shells." Gloria rejected Li Mu's proposal, and still liked those colorful little things.

"Whatever you want, don't go far-" Li Mu didn't insist, the current Daba Hama Island has not yet been determined to be safe, so it is better to be careful.

As a result, as soon as the words fell, Li Mu heard fierce gunshots in the jungle in the distance.

"Quick, get back to the ship." Li Mu immediately gave up the wooden house that had been half built, and the people in Bai Qi's belt were all scouts, since they used weapons, they must have encountered danger.

"There are other people on this island, and these gunshots are not all Winchester's thirteen rounds and pythons-" Yan Shun didn't draw his gun, and when he approached Li Mu, his face was ugly.

Li Mu has a lot of things to do during this time, and he has not practiced drawing a gun for a few days, but Yan Shun has never relaxed, and now the speed of drawing a gun and the accuracy of shooting are above Li Mu, and his familiarity with firearms has long surpassed Li Mu.

"Hank, bring someone to support Bai Qi." Li Mu gave an order to the deputy commander of the reconnaissance company.

"Yes General—" Hank was ready, and with a platoon of soldiers, he hurried away in the direction of the gunshots.

As a result, it took an hour to go, and an hour later, Bai Qi and Hank returned to the ship with the soldiers.

"There are more than 20 people on the other side, presumably pirates, or smugglers, wearing messy clothes, holding weapons that are in tatters, and the rifling of several guns has been smoothed, I really don't know where they got the courage to attack us, we have two soldiers wounded, after emergency bandaging is not serious, all the people on the other side were killed, I wanted to keep a mouth, but I didn't stop-" Bai Qi looked annoyed, was attacked by a group of natives, Bai Qi felt very unhappy.

"Tomorrow, you take someone and wash this island for me, this will be our territory in the future, and we can't leave hidden dangers." Li Mu is ruthless, since he is a pirate, there is nothing to be polite, he should be doing the right thing for heaven, and maybe he can make a small fortune.

When Columbus came to the Bahamas, there were about 40,000 Lukai living in the Bahamas, and then European explorers flocked to the Lukay, and the Lukai were sold as slaves to plantations throughout South America, and it didn't take long for them to be exterminated.

If Li Mu's current approach is inhumane, then it can only be attributed to this era, Li Mu is no longer the young man who came to your realm for the first time.

"No problem, General, you can take a look, three days at most, I guarantee that only us are the only ones left on this island." Bai Qi is murderous, since he fought a battle, Bai Qi has become more and more like the "Bai Qi" in history.

Later, Greene Giles brought another piece of good news, the Governor's Office of the Bahamas agreed to sell Grand Bahama Island to Li Mu, who had two options, one was to pay a lump sum of $500,000 for Grand Bahama Island, and the other was for Li Mu to pay $50,000, but to pay another $200,000 privately.

Hehe, the choice of which option was obvious, Li Mu immediately wrote two checks and went to Nassau with Green Giles.

When he arrived in Nassau, Li Mu knew why the British would agree so happily, the governor was an old British nobleman who was over sixty years old, this governor was not in Nassau at all, but the son of the governor Garfield, who was in charge of the house in London, England all the year round, from the intelligence analysis provided by Green Giles to Li Mu, it is estimated that Garfield is eager to sell all the Bahamas to Li Mu, and then Garfield can take the money and return to the world of flowers in London.

Although nominally Grand Bahama Island is still the territory of the British Empire, in fact, the United Kingdom no longer has jurisdiction over Grand Bahama Island, simply put, Grand Bahama Island has become Li Mu's private property, even if the British government does not like Li Mu, it must protect Li Mu's rights and interests.

This is the benefit of Western law, private property is inviolable, if the British government repents in the future, then it will be a big deal to pit Li Mu and cause a strong backlash from the whole society, which will shake the foundation of the British government's rule.
