The car driven by He Xiao is a Polaris K8 independently produced by Hawk Island, worth 600,000 pounds, which is in line with the identity of "Huang Chao".

Headquartered in Rum City, Hawker Island's fifth-largest city in Hawker Island, a city of 920,000 in the middle of the Southern Plains, Ho's next destination.

At one time, Hawk Island was one of the world's largest producers of sugar cane and sugar, accounting for 60% of all arable land and producing more than 40 million tons of sugarcane at its peak.

And the by-product of the sugar industry is rum. Rum is a distilled liquor consumed from sugar cane molasses, which is made by fermenting and distilling the sugar juice pressed from sugar cane.

Rum City was the center of sugar production at the time, and it was also the center of rum production.

However, this single industrial structure is very risky, and when the international sugar price falls, the economy of Hawker Island will be greatly affected, and due to the large amount of sugar cane planted, the grain cultivation is relatively small, and in this case, there has even been famine.

During the reign of the old Duke Hawke, he consciously changed the industrial structure of Hawke Island, reducing the planting area of sugarcane and expanding the planting area of grain and tropical cash crops such as coconut, banana, natural rubber, coffee, and cocoa.

In recent years, the promotion of HKP012 potatoes and HKS027 soybeans has further squeezed the original sugarcane planting area.

Along the way, He Xiao could barely see the sugarcane fields, replaced by large fields of intensive potato and soybean cultivation.

He Xiao got out of the car and interviewed the farmers working in the fields, and it turned out that as early as three years ago, Ambrera had contracted almost all of the arable land here at a high price, provided technology and seeds, and hired local farmers to grow potatoes and soybeans.

Compared with the sugarcane they planted, their income has increased by more than 2 times......

No wonder no one grows sugar cane anymore.

However, He Xiao found that these farmers had to drink a bamboo tube of rum every day at noon.

He Xiao tasted a few bites and felt that the taste was very pure. Very top-notch.

Although the sugar cane industry has declined, the bamboo rum culture has long been a tradition on Hawk Island, and the 50 pound note issued by Hawk Island has a picture of bamboo rum on it.

The use of bamboo tubes to store rum is also a unique custom formed in Hawk Island during the colonial era, and even the entire Hawk Island holds a rum festival every year, and the rum festival has applied to UNESCO for inclusion in the list of intangible cultural heritage.

It's a pity that now is not the time, otherwise it must be a wonderful choice to experience the carnival of Rum City at the Rum Festival.

As Polaris drove slowly through Rum City, the fabled sugar factories were no longer visible, but instead a series of new factories.

They are concentrated in industrial parks in the northern suburbs, including light industries such as textiles and electronics, which began to accept the transfer of the suzerainty during the era of Duke Hawke, as well as emerging industries that have settled in recent years.

It is here that Polaris Motor Company is headquartered, and today its car manufacturing plant and supporting factories are the backbone of Rum City, with an annual production of 2.2 million vehicles, accounting for more than two-thirds of the entire Hawke Island, and ranking among the largest in the world.

Rum City is now not a sugar center, but a world-famous Motor City.

Although compared with Fuso and Western car brands, Polaris Automobile is still not famous enough, but in recent years, Polaris Automobile has made great technological breakthroughs in new energy vehicles, especially hydrogen energy vehicles, which are at the leading level in the world.

It is worth mentioning that the hydrogen energy lunar rover and Mars rover on Hawk Island, as well as the engine of the motorized armor, are the masterpieces of Polaris Motors, which is why it has gained fame in recent years.

Many Hawker Islanders have given up on imported cars and switched to their own cars, especially hydrogen cars.

At present, Polaris Motors' hydrogen vehicles already account for one-third of its production.

Before Huang Fei drove, it was a Polaris hydrogen energy car.

The hydrogen energy vehicle launched by Polaris is about the same as electric vehicles per kilometer, and is half cheaper than fuel vehicles.

The success of Polaris' hydrogen vehicles seems to prove that electric vehicles are a crooked path, and hydrogen vehicles are the right way.

However, at present, only Hawker Island can reach this level, although Fuso has studied hydrogen energy vehicles earlier, but there is no breakthrough progress at present, and their hydrogen energy vehicle technology is still far behind electric vehicles.

Speaking of which, Polaris also introduced Fusang's hydrogen energy technology at the beginning, and now it has beaten the master to death.

This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened on Hawk Island.

At least the Hawker Islanders firmly believe that their scientific research capabilities are now the best in the world, not in one aspect, but in all aspects.

A student at Rumtown University said very proudly to He Xiao: "We would like to thank the old Duke Hawke, who did everything he could to vigorously promote education when the economy of Hawk Island was not rich at the time, and provided the foundation for the current explosion of science and technology on Hawke Island, he is really the greatest person in the history of Hawker Island, and also one of the best and most far-sighted people in the history of mankind......

Indeed, Rum City University is one of the "38 key universities" that the old Duke Hawke focused on, and they are grateful to the old Duke Hawke, which is a matter of course.

Leaving Rum City, He Xiao followed the Zhongsan-line Expressway and came to the bank of a large river.

At 1,100 kilometres, the largest river in Hawke, the George II River, is one of the longest island rivers in the world, compared to the world's largest rivers.

And because it is in the tropical rainy areas, the amount of water is particularly large.

He Xiao noticed that the river sign on the side of the highway had been vandalized, and the word "George II" had been splashed with paint.

It must have been the Hawk Island independence elements who did it, and as long as it was something related to colonization, they were strongly opposed.

He Xiao has long received many proposals to change the name of the river, including changing it to "Lady Michelle River", "Sugar Cane River", "Rum River", "General Hu River", "Monkey River, etc......

There are even proposals to name the "Xiao River", "Roger Andre River" or "Einstein River......

That's outrageous......

Due to the fact that there are so many related proposals, the Executive Office and the Parliament are reviewing the reconsideration.

They have a headache, because Hawk Island is just a colonial island, and its history is shorter than that of the United States.

If you have to rename too many at once, it is really difficult to choose, and it is difficult to find a name that is so suitable and meaningful.
