161, Cannon Island

In Caracas, Liu Dapao was received by Venezuelan President Herrera.

Although Liu Dapao came in his personal name, Herrera still attaches great importance to it and respects Xiangjiang and Herrera very much. He knows that this place has a developed economy and if it can help Venezuela, then the relationship will be good.

After some politeness, Liu Dapao put forward his own ideas.

"His Excellency President, Venezuela is vast and can't even take care of it. I plan to build a film and television shooting base in the Caribbean. Therefore, I plan to ask your country to buy Blankia Island. This island is very deserted and far from Venezuela. Why sell it to me? How about you?" Liu Dapao said.

Blankia Island covers an area of ​​6,435 square kilometers. It is an island in the Antilles Islands in the southern Caribbean. It is administratively under the jurisdiction of the Federal Territory of Venezuela. It is a virgin land with gentle tides and the beach is covered with fine sand like white sugar.

The highest point of the island is 30 meters above sea level. Except for fishermen, coastal defense teams and occasional tourists, almost no one will stay on the island.

It is now 1982, and there are no people on the island.

However, Liu Dapao has a way to make this island become a green paradise immediately. Although there are not many spiritual springs, as long as this place becomes its own, Liu Dapao will definitely build it. When the spiritual spring is spread, the island will become a beautiful paradise.

After hearing this, Herrera thought for a moment and said, "That's it, then we'll just rent it out to you?"

Herrera obviously didn't want to sell it, but wanted to rent it to make Liu Dapao contribute to Venezuela.

Once this place develops into a film and television base, it will become a tourist destination and can continuously contribute financial income to Venezuela.

Liu Dapao smiled and said, "President, I am bluntly speaking, this island is completely deserted. I need a lot of financial, material and energy to build it. If it weren't for my territory, why should I? You know, there are many ready-made film and television bases in the world, why should I run so far? Don't worry, I give 100 million US dollars, and the President will not suffer any losses. And after it is completed, it will still bring benefits to Venezuela."

The 100 million US dollars at this time was very strong. Venezuela is now poor. If you get this money, it will be a very good thing for Venezuela.

At this time, Herrera felt that Blancchia Island would not have much effect on Venezuela.

"Okay, let's sign the contract right away," Herrera said.

The signing was completed quickly, with US$100 million being shipped from Cannon Entertainment, and Blankia Island officially became Liu Dadatu's private territory.

At the same time, Venezuela also announced the news to the public. The international community did not respond much to this, and even the US authorities responded plainly to it. After all, this was purchased by an American entertainment company and it had no impact on the United States as a film and television base.

However, at the beginning, neighboring countries wanted to station troops on the island to strive for benefits to their own countries. But Liu Dapao refused their requests one by one, the reason was that this place would become a film and television base, and there would be no need to station troops and no one would invade them.

In fact, if you want to garrison troops, Liu Dapao must have his own people come.

After Liu Dapao purchased Blankia Island, he immediately went to the island.

After getting on the island, Liu Dapao felt bitter in his heart. What kind of bird place is this? It’s really a place where birds don’t shit. It’s very deserted and has few green plants, only some shrubs and palm trees.

"Dear, you spent 100 million US dollars on such an island. What a pity. If we had known, we would have only given 10 million." After looking at it, Brooke Xiaosi couldn't help but have some objections.

She now has a strong sense of immersion. Although she doesn't care about Liu Dapao's money, it's a pity that she will definitely spend it in vain.

"It's okay, you man, I have the ability to turn it into a paradise on earth." Liu Dapao said with a smile.

There is no fresh water on the island, so survival is a problem.

If you want to build a film and television base, there will definitely be people who will stay there. It is not possible to have fresh water. In addition to bringing it from other places, there is another way, that is, plant water trees.

This water tree is native to Madagascar. It is originally wild and mostly grows in the desert. Its roots can penetrate through thick sand layers and pierce to a deep fine soil layer, absorb groundwater and keep itself in raising.

In hot and rainy climates, its roots become deeper and deeper, and it consumes more and more water.

At the same time, the longer the leaves grow, the bigger they become, and the thicker they become, and the base can be as thick as twenty centimeters.

In this way, the leaves are like hump and actually become a water reservoir.

There is a layer of oil on the surface of the leaves that can refract the scorching sunlight so that the stored water will not evaporate.

Therefore, no matter how severe the drought is in years or how hot the weather is, it always has enough moisture to not dry up.

There is no fresh water on Blankia Island, but it does not mean that there is no water underground. With rainfall, it can still store some water and replenish some water at that time.

Liu Dapao also plans to build some water towers on the island to store rainwater. This will at least ensure the basic living needs of the base staff and survive.

When the two were playing on the island, they could see fishermen docking from time to time. The marine fishery product in this area was still very rich. Liu Dapao did not intend to interfere with them. The more there were, the more prosperous the base would be. These fishermen could also bring commodity transactions to the base, and they could send fresh water to them at that time.

Because there were no living facilities, the two slept under palm trees at night and lived a life of a savage.

After a while of investigation, Liu Dapao immediately summoned a hundred people from Xiangjiang, first occupied Blankia Island, and then began construction.

First, he prepared the signboard. Liu Dapao made a lot of stone tablets, and then he penetrated them into the ground. The three words "Cannon Island" were engraved on the stone tablet. From now on, this place is no longer called Blankia Island, but called Cannon Island.

Then we start building houses on the island. Without supplies, we have to buy them from nearby countries and then transport them, including food and fresh water.

For electricity, solar power is used to generate electricity. Here, there is enough sunshine and can provide sufficient solar energy.

A month later, several reinforced concrete buildings were finally set up on the island. Although they were not tall, people finally had a place to live. Water towers were also built, and fresh water could be stored as soon as it rained.

At the same time, during this period, Liu Dapao also purchased 100,000 water tree seedlings from the system, and found an excuse to let people plant them.

Liu Dapao waters Lingquan at night for every sapling to ensure their survival. Liu Dapao also waters Lingquan at the same time. In addition, Liu Dapao also planted some desert plants on the island, which are highly drought-tolerant. Once they survive, they can take root and live.

In addition, Liu Dapao opened up another hundred acres of land to prepare to plant crops and vegetables. The island will not have too many people for the time being. The vegetables, fruits and melons and melons grown on the 100 acres of land are enough for them to eat.

After a few days, after watering the spiritual spring, the water trees quickly took root and began to survive. The palm trees became more vibrant and the environment on the island changed greatly. Many desert plants also survived, making the island different.

The vegetables, fruits and melons in the fields also survived, and the green leafy vegetables could be eaten soon, which made the workers feel very at ease. As long as there is something to eat, even the barren islands can live. Marine fishery products with vegetables will not taste boring.

In addition, I was lucky. During this period, it actually rained heavily on the island, making the plants full of vitality. Several water towers also stored some fresh water, which was enough to eat for a while.

Lingquan's intervention also caused birds to fly on the island from time to time, and there were more fish along the coast. Liu Dapao fished marine fishery every day, which made people feel that life was good.

The construction of living facilities is very fast, so communication facilities are much more troublesome. After negotiations between neighboring countries, Cannon Island borrowed their communication satellites, and several communication base stations were built on the island to receive satellite signals.

Two more months have passed, and the island has changed a lot, living facilities have gradually been improved, and the buildings have been expanded to fifty buildings, which can accommodate 3,000 people to live here.

Various plants grew up crazily, especially the water trees, which were like a day. They poked the leaves and could drink water directly. This is how Liu Dapao and Brooke Xiaosi drank water every day.

Vegetables, fruits and melons are also gradually ripe. There are many things like watermelons that make people love them. They want to eat them every day. Brooke Xiaosi can eat three of them a day, and they don’t even want to eat them. Life is so free that Brooke Xiaosi doesn’t want to go back to the United States.

In order to ensure safety, 350 disciples from the Feitian Sect came, and Liu Dapao also purchased all American equipment for them to maintain public order on the island. Originally, they had martial arts skills, so Liu Dapao was very relieved of them.

In addition, more than 100 fishermen from nearby countries also immigrated to the island and became residents under Liu Dapao. They felt that living on the cannon island was more comfortable, without worrying about food, fresh air, free and romantic. In addition, the disciples and workers of the Feitian Sect also found girlfriends from nearby countries. Now the total population on the island has really exceeded the 500 people. These American beauties have food, accommodation and good men to serve, and they have gradually integrated into the life of the cannon island.

Liu Dapao now thinks that something can be done. Since it has reached this point, if a country is not established, it will also establish a local organization to govern the cannon island.

Establishing a country may cause disgust among neighboring countries, so Liu Dapao decided to establish a village called Dapao Village and become the village chief himself.

The New Territories Village has always been under the rule of the British, but it was built by itself and no one interfered with it. At that time, it echoed the New Territories, and it might drive the economic development of the Americas and the Caribbean, and it would become an economically developed region.

The Cannon Village was soon established and soon applied to join the United Nations. As for the name, it was a local organization that was not under the jurisdiction of any country, had no military, did not form an alliance with any country, but could establish unofficial relations.

Da Cannon Village has no separate currency, and it uses the Hong Kong dollar as the basic currency and circulates other currencies.

After the application, the United Nations quickly sent inspectors, led by Swedish Larson.

After some investigation, I praised the construction of the island.

It only took more than three months to go from a deserted island to a paradise on earth.
Chapter completed!
