Reborn in the 70s / Reborn in 1978

Zhang Xingming nodded and said: "Yes, we are here to do business aboveboard, as long as there is enough space. You can arrange a task for the subordinates to investigate more small islands in the future. The required area is not less than 450 square kilometers, and it is not far from the mainland. At [-] kilometers, you can buy those with cold, warm, and tropical characteristics. Alas, we will have to live on these small islands for the rest of our lives.”

Su Yan said: "Then buy dozens of small islands, and put Mrs. Yadao on each of them? You are traveling around the world every day, and you are truly at home everywhere." After she finished speaking, she burst out laughing.

Zhang Xingming was stunned for a moment and said: "Oh, this is good for the world. It's specific and vivid. It's a good idea. Hey, do you think it's okay if this is the case? The world is home."

Su Yan pursed her lips, glared at Zhang Xingming viciously, turned her head and walked away, she couldn't control herself a few meters away, and giggled happily.

Zhang Xingming rubbed his chin and began to ponder the possibility of the world as his home.

Xu Xiaoya asked: "If you really made your home all over the world, would you fly by plane or by boat?"

Zhang Xingming was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is there any difference? It needs to be considered separately?"

Xu Xiaoya said: "Yes, the aircraft needs to build an airport control tower, support ground staff and crew, and build an oil depot. What weather system, typhoon system, satellite system, island defense system must be in place? Does it have to have a runway? Security measures must be in place. Right? Have to sign agreements with airports in various countries in the world? Have to send staff?"

Zhang Xingming said: "Then take a boat, it's not so troublesome."

Xu Xiaoya said: "To take a boat, you have to buy a boat, right? Do you have to repair the pier? Do you have to have lighthouses and signal towers in the oil depot maintenance dock? Do you have to prepare the wharf staff for the weather system and typhoon system? Do you have to hire the staff on board? The ship leaves It’s slow, you have to prepare all aspects of catering, right? Then how many islands can you visit in a year?”

Zhang Xingming said, "No, what do you mean by discussing this with me?"

Xu Xiaoya said: "It's nothing, I just want to tell you that every person on the island, you won't see them a few times in your life." She walked away with her little face turned.

Tang Xin's stomach ached from listening to Le Le, Zhang Xingming turned to look at him: "Do you understand?"

Tang Xin waved her hands and got up and ran.

……

Dominican, Artinson.

"Your Excellency, this is here, do you think it can still meet your needs?"

This is a natural bay that spans two provinces. A large river enters the sea from here. Fangyuan is covered with mountains for more than ten kilometers, and the lowest altitude is tens of meters. The advantage is that it is sparsely populated, and the nearest residential area is on both sides of the mountain. The other side is two or three kilometers away.

The official who accompanied Zhang Xingming and his entourage was a local mixed-race. For an official from an overseas federal country [-] kilometers away from John’s homeland, Zhang Xingming, the Baron John who entered the House of Lords, was already quite a figure, so his appearance Put it pretty low.

Standing on the ridge, Zhang Xingming looked around and asked Xu Xiaoya: "Does the seabed here need to be remodeled?"

Xu Xiaoya flipped through the information and said: "There is no need for major renovations. There are a few hidden reefs, just blow them up, but because the inner depth is not enough, this side directly faces the Atlantic Ocean, so breakwaters and dams need to be repaired. Not too small."

Zhang Xingming nodded. To be precise, this is not a good place to build a harbor. Without protection, it faces the Atlantic Ocean directly, and more money needs to be invested in its construction.But he also understands the situation. The suitable places on the west side are all big cities, and there is no place to stay.

After thinking about it, Zhang Xingming asked, "Is there a pier on the island where we can temporarily dock?"

Xu Xiaoya said: "There are only a few decent piers here, and they can only dock boats tens of meters long. Large ships can only berthed in Giorson Bay in the northwest. There is no dock there, and it is a natural water port. But there is a distance There are two cities within two kilometers, occupying the only lowland, and the sea is a mountain with an altitude of more than 300."

Zhang Xingming scratched his head and said, "Then let's go in here, hurry up and call someone over for surveying and mapping, is there any information about the water patterns here?"

Xu Xiaoya said: "Yes, very detailed."

Zhang Xingming said: "Prepare according to the biggest tide in 50 years. It must be strong. It will not be a short time if it is settled here. Don't let the big waves take over in the future. It will become a joke."

Xu Xiaoya turned her head and chatted with the official for a few words, then turned around and said, "He said that as long as there is no typhoon here, the threat of the waves is not great."

Zhang Xingming waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about conditions. It's meaningless to talk nonsense. I also know that there will be no waves if there is no sea water. Here is facing the Atlantic Ocean, so there are fewer typhoons?"

Xu Xiaoya said: "There is no way, all the suitable places have been occupied, and the surrounding larger islands have been visited. The Gulf of Venezuela is the most suitable place, but you rejected it."

Zhang Xingming said: "That is the oil transportation line, next to the Panama Canal. You stationed a fleet there? Do you want to directly fight the bald eagle?"

Xu Xiaoya stuck out her tongue, said a few words to the accompanying officials, and the group went down the mountain and returned to Luosuo.

Zhang Xingming didn't care about the negotiation, John's team would do better than them, and the group went back to the hotel to rest.

In the evening, news came that the negotiating team had acquired the permanent right to use 40 square kilometers of Artinson Bay at a price of 300 pounds. Minnesota Atinson will invest 3 million pounds in Atinson to build a headquarters base, a seaport wharf, a shipyard and ancillary factories, and plans to recruit [-] migrant workers across the island.

The Dominican government specially prepared a celebratory reception after the signing, thinking that this will be a good start for the development of the Dominican economy.

At 08:30 in the evening, when Zhang Xingming and Xu Xiaoya were laughing hypocritically with the Dominican Federation officials and boasted to each other, it happened to be [-]:[-] in the morning here.

Creaking, creaking, heavy suede military boots stepped on the half-foot-thick snow, Hojnovich walked on the road wrapped in a dog fur coat, and the white air from his mouth sprayed out at least half a meter away.

Due to economic reasons, this once glorious city has now fallen into a state of decadence, and even the snow on the avenues that are a little bit off is left unattended. This kind of thing has not happened for nearly a hundred years.

The snow was so thick that cars couldn't drive in at all, so they could only walk. Fortunately, the destination was not far from the main street, more than 300 meters away.

It was a small four-story cement building, which was the most common office building in factories and mines in China during this period.In front of the building were two rows of brick and tile bungalows, and several cars parked crookedly in the yard were covered by heavy snow.

Walking into the gate of the building, several people felt a burst of relief on their bodies. Walking in such thick snow is not an easy task, it is really tiring.

After stamping the snow on their feet, several people followed Hojnovich upstairs.The heating in the building is no longer effective for heating. It feels warm to the touch. The corridor is a bit cold, but fortunately the wind can't blow in.

The doors of many offices were open, and there was no one in the room. A few unknown documents were thrown on the ground, which looked very messy.

Second floor, second to last office on the right.

Hojnovich turned his head to see the people behind him, adjusted his breathing, and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Hojnovich opened the door and walked in.The furnishings in the room are very simple. Against the wall is a row of wooden bookcases filled with engineering books, certificates, trophies and models.

"Hello, Comrade Simonov." Hojnovich took off his gloves and extended his right hand to the chunky man standing behind the old desk.

"Hello, Comrade Hojnovich, it's been a hard journey, and the snow has been a bit heavy these days. Please sit down." Simonov and Hojnovich shook hands and pointed to the chair opposite the desk.

Both of them are well-known figures and are leaders in their respective fields. However, they don't have much contact with each other in actual work. They only meet occasionally to talk a few words in some meetings, and their personal relationship is zero.

"Smoking? Comrade Hojnovich." Simonov pointed to the medal cigarette on the table.

Hojnovich took out a pack of Zhonghua from his pocket and threw it to Simonov: "Get this one, it's not easy to get it anymore." He took out another pack and took one in his mouth.

Simonov raised his eyebrows, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, took a look at the cigarette case, opened it and smoked one, and said: "Mosque can still be obtained occasionally, and they all come from the border. Now the army is approaching This one earns military expenses. The military trucks pulling cigarettes are running in all directions. Cigarettes, soap, shoes or sweaters, everything is a bestseller anyway.”

Hojnovich lit his cigarette and said, "Comrade Simonov, how is the situation on your side?" He reached out to help Simonov light his cigarette.

Simonov took a sip of a cigarette with Hojnovich's hand, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Our neighbor has completely surpassed us in light industry, leaving us far behind. And we There is only steel, a lot of steel and explosives. What can I do? The research institutes and design bureaus across the country have stopped working because of funding problems, and many have been disbanded."

Hojnovich said: "My place has completely shut down, and my pride is just thrown on the pier, soaking in the sea water waiting to rust. There is no one in the entire factory except thieves. I see you here Is anyone still working? Are you still producing?"

Simonov exhaled a long puff of smoke and said, "Who knows, it is indeed still in production, but I don't know where the next batch of materials will be. It means to sell a batch of money back, but it has not yet been produced." Talk to me. My place is better than yours, at least things can be sold.”

Hojnovich said: "What's the difference? It doesn't make sense to sell what you have now. It doesn't exist anymore. Do you think the money will be allocated here? Or the factory below? The result is the same , research and production will stop until a result is finally produced, but no one can guess how long this process will take."

Simonov sighed and said, "Yes, I understand, but what can I do? It would be even worse if the comrades below were not produced. It is already very bad now. Let's keep counting the days."
