"Boss, it''s almost Isabella." Listening to bell Lester''s voice, Jiang Hai woke up from his sleep. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the land in the distance. He couldn''t help stretching his back.
"Ah, here we are at last!" Supporting the platform in front of him, Jiang Hai said with a smile.
This is the ninth day after Jiang Hai set out 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, Jiang Hai took a day off in Miami to send Serena Gomez back on the eighth day.
After everything was done, Jiang Hai rushed south on the ninth day.
Their destination this time is Isabella. Of course, it''s just the name of a city in this country. The country''s name is Puerto Rico. there are reasons why they choose this country.
In fact, South America is not much more peaceful than Africa, and it is particularly chaotic here, especially near the Caribbean Sea.
After all, from the very beginning, it was the back garden of all parts of Europe. The war and the looting of territory never stopped.
The relationship with the United States is also chaotic, some hostile, some ambiguous, and even some directly want to become a state of the United States. There are 20 countries along the Caribbean coast, namely, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaraguan, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Antigua and Pakistan Budapest, the Commonwealth of Dominica, Trinidad and Tobago and so on have many countries, but Jiang Hai has few places to choose.
These countries are either in chaos or in the territory of other countries, where gentlemen do not stand under a dangerous wall.
Although Jiang Hai is not a gentleman, he is at least afraid of death. If this is over, who will be targeted?
In addition to these countries, there are some that are not friendly to the United States, such as Cuba.
This is our great red League. There is a nail planted next to the United States. If the island country is the outpost of the United States, then Cuba is our outpost. Although Jiang Hai is a member of the imperial court now. But after all, it''s an American ship.
Moreover, the people on board are all Americans. If they go and provoke others, they will be in great trouble.
Therefore, countries like Cuba can''t go either. They come and go. Come on, the only country you can go to is Puerto Rico.
It''s sad to say that this country is a serious country. They don''t admit that they are a country. But they are a serious country.
Puerto Rico was originally the residence of the Taino tribe of Indians. Later, it was discovered by Columbus in 1493 and named San Juan Island. In 1508, it was colonized here by the Spanish. It became a dependency of Spain.
Until the end of the 19th century, when the Spanish American war broke out, Spain was finished, so it was defeated by the United States.
This became the territory of the United States. At the beginning, the United States also wanted to turn this place into its own colony.
However, the people here were killed by the Spanish government, so they were not willing to assassinate the president of the United States in their resistance, even in 1950. From the perspective of Americans, your country is turbulent and cumbersome, and you don''t have strategic materials like oil. What do I want you to do? So in 1952, the United States said to Puerto Rico, "you''re free, you''re autonomous."! I don''t want you anymore, just for defense and UN voting, so national defense. Diplomacy and tariffs are still up to the United States.
You can do the rest by yourself, whatever you like, whatever you like, and then the Puerto ricans are blinded.
They didn''t think that it was so easy to be free. At first they were very happy, but later they became more and more confused.
Freedom is coming, but their island really has no fart, except to sell a little cocoa beans, nothing.
Without heavy industry, without light industry, not even the processing of agricultural and sideline products, Puerto ricans were instantly stupid again.
Without the support of American Godfather and the dumping of a large amount of food, they really even have problems eating.
This is not the same as the relationship between big countries. For example, in China, the entry of things from the United States is an impact on my market. Originally, I can do these things, so there will be restrictions on taxes.
But Puerto Rico has nothing. It''s a beggar in itself. A rich man said, "you work for me, I''ll give you money.".
As a result, after working for two days, the beggar felt that the rich man was exploiting himself. He felt uncomfortable. He wanted to be free, so he began to resist. At the beginning, the rich man still said, "don''t go, you will starve to death.".
But if he doesn''t, he must go. If he doesn''t go, he will kill the rich. Then the rich will say you can go
When he came out, he found that he was still a beggar. He could do nothing and could not go to other places to work.
So we have to be shy and want to come back, but the US government doesn''t want him to come back, and doesn''t want you.In 2012, Puerto Rico held its fourth split vote to see if its relationship with the United States would change. There were three options: to become a state of the United States, to expand its autonomy and to become completely independent.
1.8 million people have the right to vote. As a result, 1.3 million people voted, and 61% of the people supported becoming the 51st state in the United States.
33% of the people want to expand autonomy, and only 5% are in favor of full independence.
But the vote came out, the Americans still said, I don''t want you! How do you like to vote
This makes Puerto Rico very embarrassed, so now nominally, although it is an independent country, people in this country are saying, we are Americans, we are the 51st state of the United States!
What is kneeling and licking? This is called kneeling licking! Jiang Hai is nothing at all, and Americans here will naturally receive the best treatment, so Jiang Hai decided to finally come here to fish tuna, at the same time, he can also look for treasure. Of course, treasure is the most important thing. Tuna in Jiang Hai seems to be something to play with, and treasure is the foundation of his life.
And the place he chose, Isabella, is a city that can''t be found in dunniang encyclopedia.
One is that the city is too small, and the other is that the city has nothing to say. We are not very familiar with it.
This city is the same for Jiang Hai. There are some in this city, basically in the Caribbean.
Coral reefs, all kinds of fish, sunshine, beaches, beauties, these things are the least valuable in the Caribbean.
So there is really nothing to say, and there is no characteristic to speak of. When Jiang Hai''s boat is close to Isabella''s harbor, the biggest boat in the harbor is Jiang Hai''s yacht.
Jiang Hai also looked out of the captain''s room, only to see a row of low bungalows, the town formed in front of him.
Of course, this is not the city center of Isabella. This is at most a dock town, but it can be seen from this.
When the ship arrived at the dock, even the person in charge of the dock was shocked and ran out of his cabin.
"Hello, are you American tourists?" Looking at Jiang Hai and others tying the boat to the stone pile of the wharf, the person in charge came over carefully and stammered to Jiang Hai and asked them.
"Oh yes, we''re here to fish for tuna." Although Jiang Hai wanted to laugh at the careful manner of the person in charge, he didn''t laugh because he was really afraid. He scared this guy with a smile.
"Oh, welcome, welcome, your arrival really makes our town shine. I''m the security guard of this dock. Are you going to Isabella, or are you in our town?" Hearing Jiang Hai''s words, the guard chief here continued to speak with some strange accents and said excitedly to them.
"Oh, we live on the boat, but we should buy something or find something to eat here." Looking at his enthusiasm, Jiang Hai has been deceived. These guys don''t want to sell the boat to him after their own people get off the boat.
I''m not familiar with this place. It''s better to be careful. Hearing Jiang Hai''s words, the Guard commander here also nodded with a smile.
"Be careful, I always feel these people are too intimate." After meeting with the guard captain, Jiang Hai specially pulled the people around him and followed them. To tell you the truth, Jiang Hai was a little confused
After listening to what Jiang Hai said, we may not think so in our hearts, but after all, Jiang Hai is the boss and what he says is what he says.
Just at this time, after a day''s sailing, it was getting late. Jiang Hai asked dalina, Marian, azalina and Harriman Firth to stay on the boat and watch out for these close local people. He went to the town with Bell Leicester. This time, Jiang Hai brought a lot of food, especially beef.
However, they always need to replenish fresh water. Sooner or later, they have to deal with the residents here, so first come to find out. If the residents here are still kind, it''s good to make some local food and wine.
Obviously, Jiang Hai and Bel Lester think too much. When Jiang Hai and Bel Lester go to the small town, almost all the people who see them will nod their heads in good faith, which is understandable. After all, of the 1.3 million people, only 5% are right, which is not much different from the angry youths in China. If they want to kill all the Americans, the remaining 95% are right The Americans are very fond of them, and there are even quite a few young girls who will look at them secretly when they see Jiang Hai.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Hai can''t help but feel happy. It seems that he is a little too nervous, and belle is more happy. Compared with Jiang Hai, he is more free than Jiang Hai. These beautiful women are looking at him secretly, so he will gallop impolitely! (to be continued). ）
