Zhuang Haiyang, who flew to Merina and conducted an inspection tour of Riou Island for about a week. After visiting the royal family and having lunch with the king, he took the opportunity to leave Merina the next day. However, this news still attracted the attention of some people.

However, the outside world actually doesn’t care much about such an island purchase agreement. The only thing that is concerned is that some people are worried that after Zhuang Haiyang purchases this island and uses it as a military base, it will threaten their interests.

However, in the corresponding island purchase agreement, Merina also has strict regulations, prohibiting warships or military aircraft from docking on Liwu Island. If Zhuanghai violates this provision, the island purchase agreement will be declared invalid.

Regarding this, the lawyer group representing Zhuang Haiyang also said that there was no problem at all. It was just that there were pirates in the waters near Liwu Island from time to time. In order to ensure the safety of the island, Zhuang Haiyang needed to organize an island guard.

Originally, Merina only allowed Zhuang Haiyang to establish a shore guard. However, after this investigation, Zhuang Haiyang also proposed that if he purchased this island, he would also need a coastal patrol guard and some armed speedboats or gunboats were needed.

Only in this way can we ensure that the island has a certain ability to counterattack and intercept when attacked by a large number of pirates. Of course, this offshore guard only exists as a defensive force, and the tonnage of the purchased ships will not be too large.

The same goes for the reason that the expansion of the escort team was also due to concerns about island safety. A mere shore guard team wanted to ensure the safety of nearly 100 square kilometers of islands, but it was hard to do it even if you thought about it.

What surprised the Merina authorities was the recognition and support of the royal family. The old king Nirina, who had not expressed his opinions on political affairs for a long time, took the initiative to summon the head of the authorities, hoping that the authorities could try their best to promote this cooperation.

When a leader raised concerns, the old king also said directly: "The national finance has reached such a dangerous level now, and you are still looking forward to your actions. How can you boost the national economy and let our citizens get rid of poverty as soon as possible?

As for the concerns you mentioned, it is nothing more than those European and American people who think Mr. Zhuang is a Chinese, right? But think about it, how did Chinese countries do their investment in Africa over the years?

Those people will only express their concerns. But what measures do they take to improve our country's economy? Under the same conditions, ask them if they are willing to buy such an island?

I had contacted Mr. Zhuang earlier, and you are now starting to worry about whether the other party has any other intentions to buy the island. But have you ever thought about it? If he thinks this investment is not cost-effective, then is it him or us who suffer the biggest loss?"

The several consecutive questions made the invited leaders feel a little embarrassed. The leader who raised questions and was closer to European and American businessmen was even questioned and didn't know how to answer. It is normal for the weak country to be bullied.

It was obviously a matter of his own country, but he was always worried that he would attract doubts from other powerful countries. On this point, the old king understood it very clearly. In his opinion, as long as it is beneficial to the people, he should strongly support it.

Several leaders who supported and promoted the island-buying cooperation were undoubtedly more confident with the recognition of the old king. Although the old king rarely participated in political affairs, there were also many members of the parliament who were loyal to him in the parliament.

Especially those indigenous tribes, the old king had a great influence. To put it bluntly, if it were not for the reform of the country, the entire kingdom would belong to the royal family. Why should the royal family have to worry so much about selling an island?

Even if the royal family becomes more symbolic, once the royal family speaks, these government leaders will also consider it. Zhuang Haiyang, who doesn't know these, may feel that his gift has not been given for free if he knows it.

As for the issue of purchasing islands, Zhuang Haiyang felt that there was no need to be so anxious. The island was there, and even if he didn't buy it, I believe that there shouldn't be many people willing to buy islands at a high price. If it really was stolen, wouldn't it be enough to pick another island at that time.

After all, there shouldn't be many people willing to fall into this kind of business that is obviously a bit pit. If there is still gold and silver mines to be excavated on Liwu Island, then there may be good development value. Now, there is no way to see that there is too much value.

The so-called strategic position is important, and the military strength of the Kingdom of Merina is useless at all. As long as a country with a slightly stronger naval strength really wants to start a war against it, Merina is afraid that there will be no way to surrender.

On the other hand, how can wars be easily started? Without war, the so-called strategic position of Liwu Island is important and looks like a decoration!

After completing the inspection, I returned to Zhuanghaiyang in China, and also told my wife, sister and others about the situation on Liwu Island. When I heard that the island was so large, my sister was surprised and said, "Who are they willing to sell such a large island?"

"This island is indeed not small, but the area of ​​the entire island is less than one-tenth of the area. There are still potential for land sinking in many places. In the eyes of others, this is no different from an abandoned island."

"Since it's an abandoned island, why do you want to buy it?"

"In the hands of others, this island is naturally an abandoned island. But if I really want to buy it, I can transform it into a paradise. Don't you feel proud of having such an island?"

"What are you proud of? Is it possible? Do you still want to be king or dominate?"

Zhuang Haiyang, who was fatally complained by his sister, could only sigh: "It is definitely not enough to be the king, but it is still okay to be a big island owner. Even if it requires a lot of money to build this island, future generations can benefit!

Even if they have no future in the future, if they have such a big island inherited, they will at least ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing. The most important thing is that having such a big island can also enhance the reputation of our farms and ranches.”

Facing Zhuang Haiyang's explanation, Zhuang Ling said directly: "You can just think of such a big thing yourself. If I say so, I can't help you. The only thing I can do is hope that you can do it within your ability. After all, this kind of investment is quite large!"

"Indeed! I don't lack the money to buy an island. What really costs money is the money to build and develop an island. However, in this regard, you can cooperate with some domestic companies and some Merina companies.

Also, you can first plan an area to develop it. When the ranch starts to gain profit, then use the money earned by the ranch and fishing farm to continue to invest in island development and construction. Even if you are engaged in tourism, I believe the profit will be very good."

At the end of the conversation, even if Princess Li believes that as long as Zhuang Haiyang thinks this kind of thing is feasible, she has no objection. People who know Zhuang Haiyang's personality know that he often plans and acts after doing things.
