Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

The investment is big, but the profit is also big. After all, all transactions of Dafu Jewelry are done through bank transfer. The money is in their respective accounts. It is real and there is no falsehood at all.

With the approval of the higher-level leaders of the Agricultural Bank, a loan can be made, but the amount cannot be too much. Only the cost of 50 mu will be provided, and the villagers will have to figure out the remaining 50 mu themselves.

Liu Meilan also supports this and wants to continue last year's method of buying small pearl oysters on credit and paying back the money when selling them next year to save costs.

Anyway, we are all on the island, so the monk can escape but the temple cannot. The contract states that the pearls will be sold to Dafu Jewelry, and the deduction will be made directly at the time of payment.

The people of the entire Sifang Island were very excited. Even those who had originally looked down on the local military wives began to look at them with new eyes.

If they could, they would like to cultivate pearls. However, their household registration does not allow them to engage in business, so they can only work in factories. Fortunately, the salary is high and there is no cost, so after the excitement wears off, they still work.

In the past, they didn’t consider letting their children marry someone from the island, but now that Sifang Island has developed so well, they don’t stop them. It’s also good to stay in this Feng Shui treasure land.

The development of Sifang Island caught the division headquarters off guard. Now, if we send a warship out, we are afraid of hitting the rafts where pearl oysters are cultivated.

Commander Zhao asked: "Old Liu, our new warship is about to be put into service, and there is not enough space on Sifang Island. It seems that we need to speed up construction on Wufu Island."

Political Commissar Zhang whispered, "Many military wives work on Sifang Island, and their children study here. The teaching quality is good, and life is convenient. Wouldn't it be inconvenient to move there?"

Chief of Staff Liu smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Sifang Island would develop so fast. But we have to move away sooner or later. It is indeed crowded here, and we should arrange new places for our new warships to keep up with the development needs of a modern navy."

"As for the families, they will stay here. The research institute is also here. When the time comes, one regiment will be left here, and the others will all move to Gofukushima. Officers with families can come back every weekend to reunite. Those without families will also be given appropriate holidays to go out and hang out."

"Oh, I really can't bear to leave!" Commander Zhao was reluctant to leave, as every blade of grass and every tree were purchased with their hard work.

Chief of Staff Liu smiled and said, "If the old doesn't go, the new won't come. Besides, there is a research institute here! The two islands are not far apart, and it only takes more than two hours to get there."

Although he said this, he was actually more reluctant to leave, after all, his father and daughter were on the island.

Especially since my daughter is still pregnant, if we move away at the end of this year, we must leave Fu Chen's regiment behind and wait until the child is older before moving over.

In the past, warships were small and few in number, so this place was suitable. But now there are many warships, and they are big, and the water here is not deep enough, and sometimes submarines have to dock here.

There are many people on Sifang Island, and although there are no spies, it is still troublesome. Therefore, the higher-ups decided to move away, and they have been building it for the past two years, and it is basically completed.

The military hospital on Sifang Island will stay, and there is another hospital on Wufu Island. After all, many officers' wives are doctors and nurses, and they have to take care of children, so it's just right for them to stay on Sifang Island.

In short, the subsequent resettlement work is quite troublesome.

The vacant barracks will be tidied up in the future, some will be kept to build laboratories for the research institute, and the rest will be sold to the local government for the development and construction of Sifang Island.

In the evening, Chief of Staff Liu came back and talked about the relocation.

Liu Meilan was stunned: "Will it be inconvenient to see Dad in the future?"

"What's the inconvenience?" Chief of Staff Liu smiled, "If you miss me, you can come to see me. I can also come back on weekends. Your grandfather is old, and I am worried about him."

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry, I'm at home."

Liu Yiwen patted Liu Meilan on the head: "Stupid, mom will come over on the weekend, and dad wants to see mom too!"

"Oh!" Liu Meilan grinned, "My parents have a good relationship. From now on, as long as the weather permits, we can have a family gathering here on weekends."

Chief of Staff Liu smiled and said, "We were originally planning to relocate next year, but seeing that there are so many pearl farmers on Sifang Island, it's not very convenient. Leaving early can also provide more convenience to the local people."

"I didn't expect it was because of pearl farming." Liu Meilan laughed, "On Sifang Island, everyone is farming pearls to get rich, so they want to farm pearls when they have some free time."

Chief of Staff Liu asked curiously, "Meilan, it is said that things are valuable because they are rare. If we cultivate so many South China Sea pearls, will the price go down?"

Liu Meilan replied: "Maybe, but it won't drop too much. However, there are risks, and the returns may not be as good as this year, but it is still a very good investment project."

"The good pearls are made into jewelry and sold, and the bad ones are ground into fine pearl powder and used to make cosmetics. Good things will not be wasted."

Chief of Staff Liu reminded: "When villagers have money in their hands, we should guide them to spend it correctly, and not let them gamble outside."

Liu Meilan replied: "The police station's director, Sister Wu, has already thought about it. Now the island is cracking down hard! Those caught gambling will be severely punished. Not only that, there are rewards for reporting, and the informants are protected. Two cases have been dealt with so far."

Liu Yiwen asked: "Gambling is not allowed on the island, so why do these people go to the city to gamble?"

"Then...then there's nothing we can do." Liu Meilan shrugged. "Everyone has their own destiny. We can remind them and warn them, but we can't follow them all day. They deserve it if their families are ruined by gambling."

Old Master Liu nodded. "That's right. Some people are hard to control. Let them be. But the town has clear regulations. The money earned can be used for food and drink, to buy houses and cars, but not for prostitution, gambling or drugs. Once anyone is involved in these, the contract will be automatically invalidated. This was clearly stated when the contract was signed."

Liu Meilan agreed: "Mayor Tang's move is a good one. Even if many people have bad intentions, they are afraid that if they are discovered, they will not only be detained and sentenced, but also lose their family's means of making money."

As they were talking, Mayor Tang arrived.

"Ah, I can't help it. It's really scary for a poor person to suddenly become rich. There are many families destroyed on Sanlian Island. If I don't take care of it in advance, I really don't know what will happen in the future."

"Xiao Tang, you are able to think ahead, which proves that you have a heart." Old Master Liu chuckled, "You should guide these farmers correctly and organize a group to take them to buy houses and shops. Whether they are left alone or rented out, it will last a long time. If you want to buy a house, especially one with a couple's names on it, it's not enough for one person to sell it. Two people must sign. There are more procedures, more controls, and more trouble, but at least you can keep your family."

Mayor Tang nodded repeatedly when he heard this: "We can't force this, we can only guide it. Ye Qiang's family has built a commercial street and is now selling out. I'm going to spread the word and we'll take the lead in buying a shop."

Liu Meilan laughed: "The more you keep it a secret, and then someone accidentally hears it, the faster it will spread, and the more people will follow you to buy it."
