Chapter 605, the island without water

I'll send another chapter, have a meal first, and then write.n∈n∈,—

"820 million!"

Tamaras's face also became a little unfavorable. Undoubtedly, his funds were about to reach a bottleneck.

The rich man from the Middle East looked at Tamalas with disdain, signaled his assistant to raise the sign, and offered a price that shocked Wei Xiaobei.

"900 million!"

Tamaras's face suddenly changed from being ugly to being ugly, a little ashen. Undoubtedly, he was determined to win these three jade artifacts, but the problem is that the price of more than 1 billion has exceeded his cash amount.

"900 million times!"

The gold medal auctioneer looked at Tamaras with a look of expectation, hoping that the prince would rise up again and hit the Middle East rich, so his speaking speed slowed down.

"900 million twice!"

But no matter how fast it delays, the gold medal auctioneer has to continue reminding everyone that the deal will be completed one more time.

"Wait, I'm willing to pay $900 million plus an island!"

I don’t know why this Tamaras looked like he had to get, but in a hurry, he yelled at the gold medal auctioneer.

$900 million plus an island?

The audience was shocked by the unreasonable bid of Tamaras.

"Sorry, Your Highness, your bid needs the consent of the jade owner before you can continue to bid."

There is no doubt that the auction company is unwilling to make a deal at a price of 900 million US dollars. Seeing Prince Tamaras’s bid, its general manager appeared and discussed with the gold medal auctioneer and announced the decision.

Wei Xiaobei naturally agreed to the other party's offer.

Isn’t Wei Xiaobei trying to make money and then buy an island?

The prince of the Ten Thousand Islands Kingdom was willing to pay the price of an island. Wei Xiaobei felt like a mouse fell into a pile of rice, and luck came.

Although many of the islands in the world are sold clearly and at a price, the location of most islands does not meet Wei Xiaobei's expectations. As for islands that meet Wei Xiaobei's expectations, they are either too small in size or not for permanent sale, which really makes Wei Xiaobei feel a little headache when searching for these information.

Now it is a great thing that the prince is willing to use an island as a price. As for the size and location of the island, can't it be negotiated?

When he learned that Wei Xiaobei was the owner of the three jade artifacts, Tamalas, who was sitting beside him, couldn't help but regret it, but in a blink of an eye, his face also improved a lot. Obviously, he felt that he had hope of taking pictures of the jade artifact.

Since Wei Xiaobei agreed, the next thing will be easier.

The island provided by Prince Tamaras is a small island located in the southeast corner of the Kingdom of Rusnia. It is not large in area, only 30 hectares, which is about 450 acres of land.

At the same time, Prince Tamaras asked his housekeeper to urgently fax the island's evaluation form, which was made by an internationally renowned evaluation company, with an evaluation price of US$30 million.

The reason why this price can be evaluated is that this island has a fresh water spring, rich vegetation and a golden beach.

When the Middle East tycoon saw this, he did not protest. He then added an oil field on the basis of 900 million US dollars! The oil field worth 120 million US dollars.

Well, now, the two seem to be a bit tit-for-tat.

However, as Prince Tamaras once again raised the price of an island he owned, the Middle East tycoon eventually gave up on his bid.

After all, in the current world, oil fields are just cash cows. Just use a small oil field to offset the price. It is not very cost-effective to use more oil fields to exchange for this jade.

After all, one billion US dollars should be the bottom line of this Middle East tycoon.

In this way, Prince Tamaras successfully obtained the three jade pieces for $900 million and two small islands.

At the end of the auction, Wei Xiaobei and Prince Tamaras were invited to a separate small living room.

900 million US dollars can be directly allocated to the account. But those two small islands are not that convenient and a series of agreements are required.

When the two met in the living room, they couldn't help but laugh.

"Should I say it's fate?"

Prince Tamaras refers to the fact that the two sat together at auction.

"I heard the name of the prince for a long time, and I saw it today, and it is indeed handsome."

Wei Xiaobei also gave a few greetings.

Next, Wei Xiaobei put forward his own ideas.

I want to choose a suitable island within the Kingdom of Rusnia. As for the price, I will just talk about it later.

Prince Tamaras frowned at Wei Xiaobei's thoughts.

It is not too difficult to say that this requirement is that the sale of islands in the Kingdom of Rusnia is within the scope of law. The only problem is that Prince Tamaras himself does not own many islands.

Among the more than 10,000 islands in the country, the king of the Kingdom of Rusnia owns the most islands, 5,200.

The second is the prince, Prince Tamaras's eldest brother, who owns 930 islands.

The second prince has seven hundred islands.

The third prince, that is, Prince Tamaras, owns more than 500 islands.

In addition, the royal members, hereditary ministers and nobles of the kingdom had hundreds of islands, and at least more than ten islands.

Of course, only one-fifth of these islands can be passed down from generation to generation.

For example, if Prince Tamaras dies, only more than one hundred islands under his name can be passed on to his son.

The remaining four hundred islands will be recovered by the Kingdom's capital.

If this is not the case, I am afraid that no matter how many islands this Lusnia Kingdom has, it is not enough to share.

In this way, there are only more than one hundred islands that Prince Tamaras himself can sell.

Of course, Wei Xiaobei doesn’t need to buy a hundred islands, he just needs to choose from the more than 500 islands.

In this way, Wei Xiaobei's proposal made Prince Tamaras feel a little moved.

As a prince, Tamaras does not have much liquidity, and the 900 million US dollars has already exhausted his pocket.

It is conceivable how difficult life in Maras will be in the next few years.

In the end, Tamalas agreed to Wei Xiaobei's suggestion and asked his assistant to start introducing the island he belonged to.

According to Wei Xiaobei's requirements, the area of ​​the island cannot be less than one square kilometer.

In this way, the scope is greatly reduced, from more than 500 islands to sixty islands.

The five largest islands are the main gathering places of population within the sphere of influence of Prince Tamaras, so it is naturally impossible to sell.

Among the remaining islands, there are seven in the area of ​​more than 30 square kilometers. Well, there are water sources, so it is impossible to buy them directly.

In the end, Wei Xiaobei selected five islands based on his needs and even how much he could withstand it.

The largest area of ​​these five islands is 23 square kilometers, while the smallest is only 3 square kilometers.

As for the final choice, Wei Xiaobei needs to go to the island to check it out in person.

The next morning, Wei Xiaobei took Tian Li and took Prince Maras's special plane to the Kingdom of Rusnia with His Highness.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the plane landed on a small airport in Prince Maras.

This is not surprising. Since the land of the Kingdom of Rousnia is scattered, its main means of transportation are ships and aircraft.

In the entire Kingdom of Liusnia, in addition to Liusnia International Airport, there are hundreds of small airports, which form the transportation lifeline of Liusnia Kingdom with docks and ports spread all over the country.

The Kingdom of Liusnia is one of the most famous tourist countries. The unique tropical island scenery attracts tourists from all over the world. The number of tourists that need to be received every year is almost ten times the total population of the Kingdom of Liusnia.

This shows how beautiful the scenery here is.

Even Wei Xiaobei got off the plane and felt a sense of comfort in his whole body, and he had the urge to live here.

Of course, the most important thing now is to check the island situation, not to visit.

Wei Xiaobei can still clearly distinguish which one is more important.

Simply put, the five islands selected by Wei Xiaobei all have one characteristic, no water source.

Well, if there is no water source on the island, its value will be much lower than that of an island with water source.

This is a very simple truth. Without water sources, you cannot settle down. If you want to settle down, you need to transport fresh water from other places for a fixed time, or install seawater desalinators, etc. In short, this is not a very small expense.

And compared with islands with water sources, these islands without water sources are relatively barren in vegetation, although they are watered by rainwater.

Wei Xiaobei has seen this point.

The prince of Tamaras kindly suggested that Wei Xiaobei choose a smaller island. Although the area is small, if there is water source, it will at least reduce a large amount of long-term expenditure.

But Wei Xiaobei's final choice turned out to be the waterless island of square kilometers.

Well, from the appearance, the island is run through a small mountain range, most of which are flat, with sporadic tropical shrubs growing, which looks more desolate.

If you want to settle here, to be honest, there are many difficulties.

"It's all! Let's talk about the price now."

After leaving the island and boarding Prince Maras's luxury yacht, Wei Xiaobei said to His Highness with a smile on his face.

"Well, before negotiations, as a friend, I still have to remind you that the island will have a lot of investment in the later stage."

Seeing Wei Xiaobei insisting on doing this, Prince Tamaras did not talk too much, but instead handed over the next thing to his housekeeper, a Cambridge graduate born in a British housekeeper family.
