In fact, it is a bit overkill, maybe in order to avoid suspicion, Wu Mengxi specially invited a Western chef from Phuket, and the Ukrainian doctor also recruited an official chef from Kiev when he came, so now the dishes of the "NEWLIFE" restaurant are quite European-style, and even the common barbecue and green onion fried flavors along the coast of Southeast Asia are rare, cream shrimp balls, black pepper fish steak, butter cheese baked geoduck, etc., are some classic dishes of Western food plus seafood practices, so that Eastern European people are addicted.

And the seven elders sat at the round table, it was very boring, and they stopped tasting the exquisite dishes in the middle, and asked Ah Nu to bring a few bowls of warm boiled water, and soaked those delicacies in it before eating, so that Buck finally simply ordered the kitchen to cook white water dishes for these people, and took out some snacks and dried fruits that Mu Chenfei bought in Yue Lan and put them on the table, and the men on the island were a little interested, but they were not used to sitting at the table, so Ah Nu ran back and forth and moved a stack of straw mats and laid them on the wooden planks under the eaves of the restaurant to sit on the ground and sit in a circle before starting to speak。

In the past half a year, he has often taken the two children, and Buck doesn't even smoke much, so he took out a plate of cigars that Wu Mengxi had prepared a long time ago and shared it with the elders. ”

This is obvious.

For such a hidden beauty development, most investors adopt the model of the hotel in Malaysia, to build a high-end place by themselves, the local people's livelihood has nothing to do with themselves, most of the hotel staff are professionally trained, and the locals can only do some rough benzene work to clean the garbage transfer, such an investment has not changed in the slightest, but has brought tourists to destroy the ecological environment and living space here.

But Wu Mengxi's attitude is different, almost a large number of local employees are recruited for training, and the construction site is also constantly using local labor, the result of gradually driving out other businessmen is that there is not much business competition here, a lot of business is handed over to the locals to do by themselves, there was originally only one way to go fishermen can choose to transform into construction workers and hotel restaurant service providers, helicopter transportation has also made Wanda Town's materials richer than before, from the current eyes of these religious elders, the whole situation is good, although this benign change depends on Wu Mengxi's operator's heart, but at least now the fishermen are feeling very good, there are also many temples of Omo religion to worship and praise, because Wu Mengxi attributed all the credit to the temple.

Unlike the mountain people like Chuck, the mountain people are ignorant and honest in a remote corner, but they have become cunning in the process of communicating with the outside world, while the fishermen are still relatively simple, and now they are worried about Buck: "Now...... I didn't see any guests, and your wife drove away tourists who didn't want to spend money, and now that the construction of the three islands is progressing, and the money is always being spent, can you keep going?"

Buck shook his head calmly: "It is a basic requirement to ensure that the beauty of the islands in this sea area is not destroyed, and it must be built well before it can welcome rich but small number of tourists, and in the future, the number of visitors in the town should be limited, and the overall cost can feed the surrounding fishermen, and it is enough to bear these expenses...... I came with a gift this time, I don't know if you like it or not. Opening his backpack, before flying to the Philippines, a white skull statue brought by Lin Dong was taken out of a bag by Buck and held it with both hands.

The elders, who still had cigarettes in their mouths, rushed to take it, and after a little look, they were surprised: "Statue?!" Finally, it was handed to the eldest father, Eto, and rubbed it like a treasure, nodding affirmatively: "Yes! It's the Holy Skull! But how did it turn white?"

Fang Lingying copied it by herself, with a jade skull as a blueprint, coupled with a variety of modern measurement techniques, the basic score is exactly the same, and the advanced grinding tools can also ensure that the finished product for about a week is as smooth as the holy object that has been worshiped and touched for hundreds of years, but in terms of material, Fang Lingying wanted to find some high-end goods, but Buck specified that he would use the common white marble in the Academy of Fine Arts, mainly because he felt that the hardness of the material was very suitable, and Fang Lingying would not hurt his hands when he made it, but the white marble that could be seen everywhere in the sculpture factory was not a valuable thing, and it was estimated that it would be a thousand yuan。

Buck also explained earnestly: "I spent a lot of money to invest in this area, and my Eastern European partners also spent a lot of money, and the recent political situation in Eastern Europe has been unstable, so I don't have so much money to buy the green holy skull, so I can only ask someone to find this imitation white holy skull first, and quickly send it back to you first." "This is the result of Ye Mingjing's discussion with Wu Mengxi, you must not return the holy relics, as long as the things are still in your hands, you can always maintain a good relationship.

The elders saluted one by one with their hands in fists, very grateful, in fact, this gesture can see the shadow of Hua Guo clenching his fists, but the resistance to Hua Guo here is not less, it may be similar to what Yue Lan felt, and everyone will feel a little frightened by the increasingly powerful giant neighbor.

With this thing as the foundation, the next exchange atmosphere is very good, the old elder sits cross-legged with the holy skull between his legs with both hands, and looks down from time to time, and other people often turn around to look, white marble is still good, at least the white and flawless appearance is more in line with religious hobbies than jadeite, Eto said three words of thanks, this time he sincerely felt that Buck, a foreigner, was good: "The helicopter has also helped us rescue many fishermen, and the hospital is basically serving fishermen, thank you so much." ”

Buck had a sinister plan: "It's time to build a school next." ”

Eto wondered, "There is a government school in the town, but there are very few students who can accommodate the school, and many fishermen cannot afford it, so we were talking to you about whether we can help expand it." ”

Buck spread his hands: "This is no problem, but this school should be opened in the temple, it is to teach and read the teachings of Omo from an early age, and it is Omo that teaches children to read and read, so that they will believe in Omo for generations!"

The elders were suddenly a little moved: "Yes, yes, yes, so that the fishermen can follow us!"

The old man still has to see through the world: "Then what good are you, why do you want to help us like this?"

Buck was very calm: "Only when the Omo religion is firmly established in this area, can we only talk to you about our business investment, do we want to satisfy the fishermen one by one or talk to the corrupt government?"

The elders applauded.

Eto is even more unskeptical: "At the beginning of the project, I was worried about the environment, but now it seems that I am too worried, and now the only question left is how to keep the area safe." ”

Buck is still familiar with this kind of business: "On the government side, I actually recommend that we not oppose each other and try to ease relations, but we can't tolerate the fundamentalist prayer groups in Mindanao, and only by beating them that they don't dare to come and intrude can we ensure the safety of our homeland." ”

The elders sighed: "The Medan Islands are much bigger than our island of Busuanga, and now there are many more Muslims in the eastern archipelago than we Omoists...... It's a pity that the government wiped out all the good things we had in Luzon and brought us to such a corner!"

Buck also had to comfort this sentiment: "Tomorrow, tomorrow, if the elders are free, come with me to the construction island to have a look, we will try our best to make these island hotels a profit point in the future, and also become a bunker around Busuanga Island, arm the self-defense forces, guard against the infidels, and develop this area, so that we can have the strength to talk about the future." ”

When it comes to fighting guerrillas on one side of the separatist side, the Chinese have a tradition.
