She went downstairs cheerfully, and as soon as she reached the kitchen, she could smell the aroma from the toaster, while Xie Xiao was competing with half an orange.

"Wait a little longer, the freshly squeezed orange juice will be ready soon." Xie Xiao turned the orange vigorously while showing his signature smile to Jian Weian.

"Fortunately, I'm the only customer now, otherwise you are a small shop and you will be waiting to close." Jian Weian smiled, looked at Xie Xiao who was struggling beside him, and reached out to help him.

"You don't need to work so hard, it doesn't matter if I just eat the orange." Jian Weian gently held his hand. For Xie Xiao, who is the president, he has already done too much for her.

"But it's easy to choke on bread, so I think it's better for you to drink orange juice directly." Xie Xiao was also very conflicted, "But I didn't expect this hand-squeezed orange juice to be so troublesome." He still overestimated what he did ability to live.

"Maybe you haven't found the skills." Jian Weian felt that Xie Xiao must not be as good at such things as her. She took the props and held the orange by herself, but even if she tried her best, she couldn't do it. Only squeezed out a few drops.

In the end, she found out that this had nothing to do with Xie Xiao, they seemed to be not very talented in the kitchen.

After breakfast and blessings, she pushed open the door, wanting to breathe the fresh air outside. She was about to go out when Xie Xiao grabbed her back and shook the bottle in her hand.

"It's not like in China. The sun is very strong. You'd better put this on first." Jian Weian looked at the sunscreen in his hand and couldn't help laughing, but she still took it and sat back on the sofa obediently.

Xie Xiao was really more careful than she imagined. After applying sunscreen, he insisted on putting on a huge sun hat for her before allowing her to walk out of the glass door.

She walked forward slowly, and the air blowing towards her face was filled with the freshness of the sea breeze and a little coconut fragrance. It might be a smell that comes only when one is in a situation, but she always felt that there was some fragrance.

He turned his head to search, but when he turned around, he saw thick black smoke rising from a small island not far from here.

What's wrong with that?Jian Weian frowned, there must be a fire, right?
She hurried back to the house and took out the binoculars. When she looked again, the black smoke was ignited on the other side of the island, and she couldn't see anything here.

"It seems that you have found another reason." Xie Xiao appeared behind her just in time.

"Another reason?" Jian Weian was at a loss.

"That's another reason why I bought this island." Xie Xiao took down the binoculars, hugged Jian Weian back into his arms, and brought her under the sun umbrella that she had just set up.

"I took you on another road yesterday. If you walk from the other side of the island, you can clearly see that this is not an island, but an archipelago." He gestured to Jian Weian in the direction.

"Then what does this have to do with your buying this island?" Jian Weian didn't quite understand, maybe Xie Xiao wanted to tell him that he actually wanted to buy those islands, because he was afraid that she would lose her temper, so he restrained himself one time?
"At that time, when we were married and hadn't planned our honeymoon, I wanted to take you here for a while, because I heard that this island is very beautiful, and the aborigines here are very enthusiastic. I think you will like."

As Xie Xiao said, he recalled the time when the two were just married, which was actually not long ago, but after going through so many things, everyone forgot that they were actually a newlywed couple.

"Afterwards, I sent people to collect information, and soon the information on this small island was passed on to me."

Xie Xiao sighed lightly, and continued, "Based on the environment, this island is no different from the others, but later I learned that several islands around this archipelago have been sold, and it Only stayed."

Jian Weian became more and more terrified the more she heard, "Could it be some kind of mysterious power?" She couldn't help but guess.

Xie Xiao smiled when he heard this, "You can say that, but you have seen that mysterious power yesterday."

"I saw it?" Jian Weian was even more surprised. What kind of mysterious power made her not realize it when she saw it? That's too scary.

"It's Philip's family, to be precise, it should be every aborigine living here."

Jian Weian was confused when she heard this, and she began to feel a little dissatisfied with Xie Xiao's way of showing off. Seeing the anger in her eyes, Xie Xiao immediately put away his joking attitude.

"Okay, okay, I'm not going to tease you on purpose, so listen to me next time."

It turned out that this island was favored by a certain foreign developer and wanted to use it as a tourist attraction, but from the very beginning, the original residents of the island refused.

However, they do not have the ownership of the island, so their resistance is legally useless. Once the developer submits the formalities to the relevant departments, the island will belong to them.

Instead, the original residents have become obstructers who interfere with the normal construction of others.

They had no choice but to resist and retreat to other islands in the archipelago, and slowly gathered on the island where Jian Weian and the others were now.

During this period of time, relevant media also reported on this incident one after another. More and more people knew about the conflict between the developer and the original residents, and chose to stand in line one after another.

In the beginning, the original residents did not get much support, until people from the outside world gradually discovered that the developer's methods of developing the island were extremely cruel.

"Just like the thick smoke you saw just now, they are actually burning the forest directly."

"Why burn those trees? Isn't it good to keep them here?" Jian Weian was at a loss.Isn't wood a very important building material, why do they still burn it?
In Jian Weian's view, this is simply a loss-making business.

However, Xie Xiao shook his head and told her, "The developer wants to build a resort area, blindly using wood to build houses. Although it has a primitive taste, it will make some tourists feel unsafe and not luxurious enough, so what they need is steel bars. cement."

Xie Xiao felt extremely sad when he said this.

"Then you can keep it and sell it to others. In any case, burning is the worst way to deal with it, isn't it?" Jian Weian wondered.

Are these developers all muddled?
"I know what you're thinking, but they're not stupid. What they do is often the result of their calculations." Xie Xiao said helplessly.

"The scenic spots they want to open must have a part of the original rainforest, so that they can have gimmicks and attract tourists. The houses they build only occupy a small area, and all they need is to cut down a small part of the trees."

While talking, Xie Xiao gestured to Jian Weian to see the approximate ratio.

"And among this small number of trees, there is a large part of coconut trees, and you know that coconut trees are not suitable for building stronger houses."

Jian Weian is also very clear about this, looking at its curved trunk, Jian Weian can understand it.

"If there are too many useless trees, if they have to be transported out of the island, the shipping fee will be too high, which will increase their cost, so they will be burned instead, which will save them more money."

Hearing this, Jian Weian finally understood that these developers didn't care about the environment here at all, but how much money this place could bring them.

"But after I found out about this, I bought the island. When the people I sent landed on the island for the first time, the residents were in such an atmosphere that they almost killed themselves."

As Xie Xiao said, his eyebrows raised involuntarily. Although he hadn't experienced it himself, it sounded like he was also very scared at the time, worried that he might not communicate well with them on the first day, and that it would be even more troublesome in the future.

"Fortunately, Philip has had the experience of communicating with people outside the island a long time ago, so he acted as a good translator. I told them that I bought only one house on this island for a private vacation. , I will not interfere in other fields, this is still their home, and they agreed."

"So that's how it is." After hearing this, Jian Weian understood Xie Xiao's painstaking efforts, but she still felt sorry for the original residents who lost their large areas of residence.

Xie Xiao gently took her hand, "I know what you're thinking, but there's nothing I can do about it. It's too late when I know, and we are tourists with foreign resident registration here. Purchase in this capacity A large piece of land requires a lot of procedures, which is quite troublesome."

Xie Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, "When I submit the formalities, the developer's attractions are probably already open for business. I can only help them so much."

Xie Xiaoyu said earnestly.

"I know, it's great that you can do this." Jian Weian took a picture, and she turned her hand to look outside the house. The thick smoke didn't intend to dissipate.

"It's their decision, and I'm sure they'll suffer from it one day."

Jian Weian looked at the billowing thick smoke, which was discharged into the air without any treatment. She really wished to call him, Qi Meili and the others, and immediately rushed over to hang those people up and beat them up.

"Speaking of fruits, do you want to try fruits you haven't eaten before?" Xie Xiao changed the subject, he knew what would attract Jian Weian the most.

"What fruit?"

"Sister An?"

Just as Jian Weian finished asking, there was a knock on the door. Looking back, it was Lisa, and beside her was a little girl with wide eyes.

In comparison, the little girl's hair is still a bit short. After braiding it, her shoulders haven't even touched her. She is wearing a slightly smaller linen skirt, and her round belly can be seen from the skirt.

At the first sight, Jian Weian wanted to reach out and pinch her chubby little face.

"Say Cao Cao Cao Cao is here." Xie Xiao stood up with a smile after speaking.

"Sister An, my father is going up the mountain to find fruit today, do you want to go together?"
