My Ranch

Boss, we are almost at Isabella. Listening to Bell Lester's voice in his ear, Jiang Hai also woke up from his sleep, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the distant place where there was only a line. Land, couldn't help but stretch his waist.

Ah, we're finally here! Jiang Hai said with a smile on his face while supporting the table in front of him.

This is the ninth day after Jiang Hai set off from Winthrop. For the first seven days, he had been playing along the coast of the United States. After arriving in Miami on the seventh day, in order to send Selena Gomez back on the eighth day, Jiang Hai I took a day off in Miami.

After everything was settled, Jiang Hai rushed south on the ninth day.

Their destination this time is Isabela. Of course, this is just the name of a city in this country. This country is called Puerto Rico. Speaking of which, there is a reason why they chose this country.

South America is actually not much more peaceful than Africa. It is also particularly chaotic, especially near the Caribbean Sea.

After all, this place has been the back garden of various parts of Europe from the beginning, and wars over territory have never stopped.

The relationship with the United States is also a mess, some are hostile, some are ambiguous, and some even directly want to become a state of the United States. There are twenty countries on the Caribbean coast, namely Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama , Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Antigua and Barbuda, the Commonwealth of Dominica, Trinidad and Tobago, etc. Although there are many countries, there are not many places for Jiang Hai to choose from.

These countries are either in chaos, or they are the territory of other countries, and a gentleman would not stand behind a dangerous wall.

Although Jiang Hai is not a gentleman, he is at least afraid of death. If this is over, who will it be if he is targeted?

In addition to these countries, there are also some that are not friendly to the United States, such as Cuba.

This is our great red alliance. A nail planted next to the United States. If the island country is the outpost of the United States, then this Cuba is our outpost. Although Jiang Hai is now a member of the imperial court. But after all, this ship is an American ship.

Moreover, the people on the ship are all Americans. If they go there and provoke others, it will be a big trouble.

So you can't go to countries like Cuba. It's a one-and-done trip. After doing the math, the only country I can go to is Puerto Rico.

Speaking of which, this country is quite sad. You may say that this country is a serious country, but they themselves do not admit that they are a country. You may say that they are not a serious country, but they are still a serious country.

Puerto Rico was originally the residence of the Taino Indian tribe. It was later discovered by Columbus in 1493 and named San Juan Island. In 1508, the Spanish established a colony here. Became a Spanish possession.

It was not until the end of the 19th century that the Spanish-American War broke out. Spain was already finished at that time, so it was defeated by the United States.

This became the territory of the United States. From the beginning, the United States also wanted to turn this place into its own colony.

But the people here were tortured by the Spanish, so they were unwilling to resist. In 1950, they even assassinated the president of the United States. When Americans look at it this way, your country is unstable and cumbersome, and it does not have strategic materials such as oil. What do I want you to do? So in 1952, the United States told Puerto Rico that you are free and you can govern yourself! I don’t want you anymore, just for defense and the United Nations vote, so national defense. The United States still has the final say on diplomacy and tariffs.

You can take care of the rest by yourself, adjust it as you like, adjust it as you like, and then the Puerto Ricans will be confused.

They never thought that freedom would come so easily. They were happy at first, but then they became more and more confused.

Freedom has come, but their little island really has nothing. Except for selling some cocoa beans, there is nothing.

There is no heavy industry, no light industry, not even agricultural and sideline products processing industry. Puerto Ricans were stupid again in an instant.

Without the support of their American godfather and the dumping of large amounts of food, it would be really difficult for them to even eat.

This is different from the relationship between big countries. For example, in China, when your American goods come in, they impact my market. I can also make these things, so there are tariffs and restrictions.

But Puerto Rico has nothing, and he is a beggar. Here a rich man said, you work for me, and I will give you money to spend.

After working for two days, the beggar felt that the rich was exploiting him. He felt unhappy and wanted to be free, so he began to resist. At first, the rich still said, Don't leave. You will starve to death if you leave.

But he refused and insisted on leaving. If he didn't leave, he would kill the rich man. Then the rich man would say that you should leave...

When he came out, he found that he was still a beggar, knew nothing, and had no way to work elsewhere.

So I can only shyly want to come back, but the US government doesn’t want him to come back, and it doesn’t want you either.

At the end of 2012, Puerto Rico held its fourth split vote on whether to change its relationship with the United States. There were three options: becoming a U.S. state, expanding its autonomy, and becoming completely independent.

1.8 million people across the country have the right to vote, and 1.3 million people voted. 61% of the people supported becoming the 51st state of the United States.

33% want expanded autonomy, and only 5% favor full independence.

But after the vote was cast, Americans still said, I don’t want you! You can vote however you like...

This makes Puerto Rico very embarrassed, so now, although it is an independent country in name, people in this country are saying that we are Americans and we are the 51st state of the United States. !

What is kneeling and licking? This is called kneeling and licking! Jiang Hai is nothing at all, and Americans here will naturally receive the best treatment, so Jiang Hai decided to come here finally. While fishing for tuna, he can also look for treasures. Of course, treasures are the most important thing. In Jiang Hai's eyes, tuna is just something to play with, while treasure is the foundation for his livelihood.

And the place he chose, Isabella, is a city that cannot be found in Du Niang Encyclopedia.

One is because this city is too small, and the other is because there is not much to say about this city, and no one is very familiar with it.

This city is the same for Jiang Hai. There are things in this city that are basically found in the Caribbean.

Coral reefs, various fish, sunshine, sandy beaches, beautiful women, these things are the least valuable in the Caribbean.

So there is really nothing to say, and there is nothing special to say. When Jiang Hai's ship approached the harbor of Isabela, the largest ship in the entire harbor was Jiang Hai's yacht.

Jiang Hai also looked outside the captain's room and saw only a row of low bungalows, forming a small town in front of him.

Of course, this is not the city center of Isabela, it is just a dock town at best, but it shows.

When the ship arrived at the dock, even the person in charge of the dock was alarmed and immediately ran out of his cabin.

Hello, are you tourists from the United States? Seeing Jiang Hai and others tying the boat to the stone piles of the pier, the person in charge walked over with a cautious look on his face and stammered towards Jiang Hai they asked.

Oh yes, we are here to catch tuna. Although Jiang Hai wanted to laugh at the cautious look of the person in charge, he did not laugh because he was really afraid. When he smiled, he gave this guy Terrified.

Oh, welcome, welcome, your arrival really makes our town shine. I am the security guard of this pier. Are you going to Isabella, or are you staying in our town? After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the guard chief here continued to speak in his unfamiliar accent and said excitedly to Jiang Hai and the others.

Oh, we live on the boat, but we should buy some things or find some food here. Seeing his enthusiasm, Jiang Hai was a little confused. These guys didn't want to wait for him. After the man got off the boat, sell the boat to him.

For someone who is unfamiliar with this place, it is better to be careful. After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the guard chief here also smiled and nodded.

Be careful, I always feel that these people are too friendly. After meeting with the guard chief, Jiang Hai specially pulled the people around him and followed them. To be honest, Jiang Hai was a little confused... …

After hearing what Jiang Hai said, although everyone may not think so in their hearts, after all, Jiang Hai is the boss, and whatever he says is what he says.

It happened that the ship had been sailing for a day and it was getting late. Jiang Hai asked Darlene, Marianne, Azarina and Harriman Fells to stay on the ship, carefully guarding these close locals. People, and he went to this small town with Bell Lester. Jiang Hai brought a lot of food this time, especially beef and so on.

However, they always need to replenish fresh water, and sooner or later they have to deal with the residents here, so they come here to explore first. If the residents here are quite friendly, it would also be good to get some local food, wine, etc.

Obviously, Jiang Hai and the others were overthinking. When Jiang Hai and Bell Lester walked into the town, almost everyone who saw them would nod in good faith. It is understandable when you think about it. After all, among the 1.3 million people , only 5% of the people, similar to the angry youth in the country, want to kill all Americans. The remaining 95% of the people have a good impression of the Americans, and even have some dissatisfaction with them. Young girls will make secret glances when they see Jiang Hai and the others.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Hai couldn't help but be happy. It seemed that he was a little too nervous, but Beier was happier. Compared to Jiang Hai, he was much more free. These beauties were making secret glances, so He galloped unceremoniously! (To be continued.)
