Chapter 362 Independent Kingdom
Luo Shui's words were not aimless. It was mainly because at this time, a man in black also found out that the old man walked along the narrow corridor and then quietly reported the situation to the middle-aged man.
After hearing the report, a look of suspicion appeared in the middle-aged man's eyes, especially after knowing that the old man and Fang Yuan and Luoshui had chatted for a few minutes, his doubts became even heavier. However, on the surface, he thought it was nothing but happened, with an ignorant look on his face and said with a smile: "Xiaoshui, you also know that I am busy, so thank you for understanding."
"In this way, you go home first, I will go back tomorrow, and everyone will get together again."
While speaking, the middle-aged man patted Luo Shui on the shoulder, then waved his hand slightly, and left with a group of people. Depending on the situation, it should be chasing the old man.
At this time, Luo Shui thought about it and was even more certain that the identity of the old man was not simple. After all, he knew the character of a middle-aged man very well, and he could be said to have no profit to get up early. If there were no sufficient benefits, he would never do things himself.
Luo Shui thought about it, then calmed down and turned around and smiled, "Brother Fang, is this morning tea not stable, are you full? If you are not full, continue to ask for something."
"Enough." Fang Yuan touched his stomach and said with a smile: "Just 80% full, and you'll be full if you eat it again."
"Then check out." Luo Shui greeted, went downstairs to the counter to pay, and looked around to find the old man.
"Keep the change, please."
At the right time, Fang Yuan shook his head and said, "Didn't I say that the old man is a great Feng Shui master, and his ability to seek profit and avoid harm is better than you think. You don't have to expect to find someone he doesn't want to see."
"Oh." Luo Shui nodded. Then he smiled and said, "I'm just guessing whether the old man is the one who asked my tenth uncle to go back to help design the ancestral hall."
"I hope it's not." Fang Yuan frowned and said, "If so, then I'll go home. No need to work harder."
"Uh." Luo Shui was stunned: "It won't be."
"As for it, absolutely as for it." Fang Yuan explained: "Think about it, I stood with him and each came up with a similar plan. Which one do your family prefer to believe in?"
"This..." Luo Shui instantly understood what Fang Yuan meant. After all, the old man's fairy-like appearance must be more likely to gain trust than Fang Yuan, a young man with hairless mouth.
Even though he understood, Luo Shui still spoke: "Brother Fang, I'm just guessing casually, it may not be true."
"Yeah." Fang Yuan nodded and said, "No matter what, since you are here, you have to go to your house to check it out. Without fighting, this is not my style."
"It's right." Luo Shui immediately smiled and said, "Then go to my house first."
While talking, Luo Shui recruited a car and then got into the car with Fang Yuan. He then told him an address. When Fang Yuan heard it, he felt a little strange. Because the address Luo Shui mentioned was actually... the dock.
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the dock.
Fang Yuan got off the car and saw the waves rolling on the seaside, with tides rising and falling, which was very spectacular. On the shore of the pier, there were also fishing boats, cargo ships, and cabins parked there.
At this moment, Fang Yuan knew that Luoshui's home was either near the pier or went to sea, on the island in the nearby sea area. And it seemed that the latter was more likely.
Facts proved that Fang Yuan's guess was correct. After the two arrived at the dock, someone came over to welcome him.
"Young Master Luo." The person who came was dark and strong, and he knew that he was often sailing. After seeing Luoshui, he hurried over and showed a bright smile. His white and shining teeth formed a sharp contrast with his dark skin.
"Brother Hao, I'm going to send me back again." Luo Shui smiled and said, "And my friends, let's go together!"
"Your polite Mr. Luo, come on the boat quickly." The man said honestly and hurriedly led the way.
After walking for a while, Fang Yuan saw the so-called ship at a corner of the dock. It was a speedboat, not long, about three or four meters long, floating in the sea.
"Brother Fang, come down." Luo Shui jumped into the speedboat with a quick look, took out two life jackets, handed one to Fang Yuan, and wore one by himself.
Fang Yuan blinked, carefully put on his life jacket, and then he entered the speedboat. At this time, the strong man grinned and said, "You sit firmly and get up!"
In an instant, the strong man started the speedboat, adjusted his head slightly, and then rode the wind and waves directly into the depths of the sea. When he really rode the wind and waves, the head of the speedboat directly broke through the layers of waves and drew deep water marks.
The mist splashed, Fang Yuan closed his eyes slightly, his palms unconsciously pressed the side of the speedboat, and his body was even closer to the seat. It was not because he was afraid, but because the speed was too fast, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Luo Shui was used to it, so he calmly hung up a pair of sunglasses and browsed the surrounding sea view at will.
Slowly, Fang Yuan also adapted to the speed of the speedboat, relaxed and watched the sea view. Unlike the land scenery, the sea was wide and the sky was naturally of a unique interest. The sky was blue, and seabirds could be seen flying from time to time, and there were also ships passing by nearby. After all, it was just offshore, and there were still many ships.
After looking for a while, Fang Yuan asked, "Xiao Luo, where is your home? Isn't it far?"
"It's not too far." Luo Shui smiled and said, "At the current speed, it will arrive soon."
It was very fast, about half an hour later, the speedboat slowed down. At this time, there was no need for Luoshui to remind him, and Fang Yuan saw the island's bandage in front of him.
After a while, Fang Yuan discovered that the island in front was somewhat beyond his expectations. After knowing that Luo Shui's family needed to go to sea before they arrived, in his imagination, Luo Shui's family was nothing more than the island owner.
After all, the rich people nowadays are keen to be kings in the sea areas of various places, and they make their own territory. This is nothing new. So Fang Yuan didn't find it strange, at most it proves that the Luo family is really a rich man.
But after approaching the island, Fang Yuan discovered that the island was not an island, but an island chain composed of several islands, and the wideness of the island chain was beyond his expectations. Several islands were surrounded, and the mountainous terrain stretched at least for several miles.
That's all, no matter how big the island is, it's not as big as the mainland. However, after the speedboat circled half a circle and entered a dock that sheltered the wind, Fang Yuan suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.
Because from the side of the pier, the island has a continuous undulating building, either staggered or concentrated. Not only is it continuous, but there is also a bustling crowd of people. In short, this place looks like a bustling and lively modern town, not an isolated overseas and rarely visited island.
"This is your home?" Fang Yuan was very shocked.
"Our village, Luo Village." Luo Shui smiled and said, "Most of the people in the village are surnamed Luo, and they live in the same clan, ethnic group and village."
"Village?" Fang Yuan's expression was strange. He looked at the tall villas on the island. Not to mention the town, even if it was a corner of a big city, some people probably believed it.
Fang Yuan calmed down and asked again: "How many people are there in your village?"
"It's thousands." Luo Shui said casually: "I don't pay attention to this."
"The problem is..." Fang Yuan muttered: "It doesn't look like it's thousands, at least tens of thousands."
Just here, the strong man smiled and said, "There are thousands of people in the Luoshou tribe, but at least nearly 10,000 people beg for food here. The boss is kind and righteous, allowing everyone to take their families over to live and place them for the place. After a while, this has become like this. People who come here for the first time often mistakenly think that this is a town."
"No wonder..." Fang Yuan suddenly realized and felt a little fussy. After all, some famous tourist islands are probably in this situation, full of modern atmosphere.
Of course, it’s just that the tourist island is a government-supported project, and the current "village" is, to some extent, the Luo family’s independent kingdom.
If this kind of thing was placed in ancient times, it was a common thing. Basically, every major clan was clinging to the group, and was intricate in the local area, with deep-rooted forces, and even the emperor's will was not as good as their clan's rules.
But now it is different, and the times are different. In modern society, this kind of hillism is definitely the target of attack. However, the Luo family seems to have not been suppressed, which fully demonstrates a problem. The Luo family has a very background and strong strength, which is definitely beyond imagination. Otherwise, the top leaders would definitely not allow such an independent kingdom to exist.
With Fang Yuan's thoughts over and over again, the speedboat was also safely parked by the dock. After getting ashore, the feeling of being down-to-earth made him feel at ease. However, he also felt a little slouching, and it took a while to return to normal.
At the right time, Fang Yuan looked around and said, "Xiao Luo, where is your home?"
It would be fine if you don’t ask, mainly because there are too many buildings on the island, there are even two streets and shops. If he hadn’t seen waves of sea waves, he would have mistakenly thought he had come to a certain town.
"On the mountain." Luoshui pointed casually.
Suddenly, someone drove a modified electric car over and said with a smile: "Mr. Luo, do you want me to take you back?"
"No need, let's go for a while." Luo Shui waved his hand and called Fang Yuan away.
"Mr. Luo is back."
"Have Mr. Luo eaten?"
Along the way, Luoshui was treated like a prince. Many people smiled and were filled with enthusiasm, and welcomed him. Luoshui seemed to be used to it, either nodding or smiling, which was quite like inspecting subjects. The real prince's patrol was probably just like this, or there was something wrong with it.
After all, the royal families of all countries in the world are just nominal rulers and have no real power at all. When the people are happy, they can cooperate to respect them, but if they are unhappy, they will not be able to defeat the royal family. I guess the royal family will not be able to do anything to them.
But this place is different. This is the territory of the Luo family. Many people have to rely on the Luo family to survive. Everyone must be very awe of those who have mastered their own jobs. Even if they are cursing in their hearts, they will be respectful on the surface.
