Chapter 506: Comrades Discovered

On the other hand, Su Yang was not surprised that the middleman company had a partner in the area because he had already gotten Little Deeny to check on it. Most of the middlemen who were selling islands did not work for the same company. Their organization structure was similar to a travel agency, a multi-party cooperation.
There were companies that formed teams, companies that accompanied people throughout the journey, companies that received guests at specific locations and companies that worked together to provide services as a tour group.
It was the same for that island’s agency. Their main business was the domestic market. After recruiting suitable customers, they would contact the local agents who bought and sold islands around the world for information.
When the customer was interested, they would send someone to fly with them to check out the place. After confirming the purchase, they would complete all the procedures.
That was a universal way of cooperation.
Very soon, after Xiao Fang had contacted his company’s partners, they sent them a 7-seater van. As Xiao Fang opened the door for Su Yang, he explained, “Usually, most customers who come to buy an island will bring a team of appraisers with them. There are very few people like you who would only bring a secretary with him.”
Su Yang smiled and said, “I don’t like having too many people following me. Besides… I’m buying an island to have fun. I’m just going to buy it if I like it, so there’s no need for an appraiser.”
While the 2 of them were talking, Janet got into the car to check. After confirming that there were no problems, he nodded at Su Yang.
Su Yang got into the car, followed closely by Janet and finally Xiao Fang.
After closing the door, Xiao Fang exchanged a few words with the driver in their local language before returning to his seat.
Once the car started, he told Su Yang, “The hotel we’re staying at is near Waikiki Beach in Honolulu. There’s a small pier there that we can go out to sea directly. I’ve already contacted our partnering company earlier. The ship that they’re preparing will arrive in 2 hours. Let’s go to the hotel to drop our luggages and freshen up before heading to the island.”
Su Yang shook his head and said, “You go ahead and check into the hotel and drop your stuff. We’ve already checked into another hotel a few days ago, so we won’t be changing hotels.”
Xiao Fang nodded. That was the customer’s freedom.
Soon, the 3 of them arrived at the hotel. Xiao Fang went off to drop his luggage while Su Yang left the hotel with Janet.
That was his first time overseas and Su Yang felt that everything was new and interesting. The architectural style that was completely different from his own country, the people that looked different from the people in his own country and the clothes that were too skimpy were all eye-opening for Su Yang.
He chatted with Janet. “Tsk tsk, look at how cool these people are dressed. Is there any difference from only wearing underwear before going out?”
Janet remained silent.
Hawaii was a resort and it was October at that moment which was towards the end of the holidays. Hence, there were many people coming and going.
Perhaps because those who were in Hawaii were all swimming and playing with water, the men and women were dressed very coolly. The men showed off their muscles while the women showed off their flesh…
Su Yang and Janet chatted casually. “What’s the difference between a swimsuit and a bra?”
Janet remained silent.
Su Yang replied, “Aren’t they just 2 pieces of cloth? Why are men and women only wearing such a small piece of cloth on the beach? Why are they not shy at all? But usually, they will be shy even if there’s a little bit of underwear showing. What kind of mentality is this?”
Janet still remained silent.
Su Yang looked at Janet. Janet was not at a loss for words, it was merely because he did not have the intention to speak.
Su Yang shrugged. ‘Fine, I’ve brought a party pooper with me.’
After spending some time at the hotel with Janet, Xiao Fang called him on WeChat.
“Hello? Mr. Su, where are you? I’ll come and find you.”
Su Yang looked at the place where he was. ‘Hmm… It’s all beaches and wooden boardwalks with no signs of any buildings. I have no idea where I am right now.’
Therefore, he said, “I’m not far from the hotel, so I’ll head back now.”
Soon, the 2 of them returned to the hotel. Xiao Fang had already unpacked his things and was waiting downstairs.
‘Look at the time, it’s almost time to depart.’
Su Yang, Janet and Xiao Fang boarded the car and went to the small pier by the sea. There, they saw a speedboat.
Xiao Fang said, “The island isn’t far from the coast, it’s about 40 minutes long. A speedboat might be faster, it’ll only take about 30 minutes.”
Xiao Fang’s information was reliable. Half an hour later, Su Yang arrived on the island.
In the photos and videos, the island was bare and ugly. After entering the island, Su Yang realized that…’It is ugly indeed.
‘Other than the blue seawater and the platinum beach that had not been polluted, this island is completely useless.’
Under the guidance of the local agent, the group walked along the coast of the island. There were not many trees on the island. Other than some seabirds, there were no other living creatures. However, due to the climate, there were many mosquitoes.
Su Yang looked around along the coastline before climbing up a small mountain. There, he found a hot spring…
Su Yang looked at Xiao Fang in surprise when he saw the hot spring. “Is there a volcano underneath this island?”
Xiao Fang took out the information and looked at it seriously before replying, “I don’t think so. However, this place has not been explored professionally, so it’s hard to say.”
“Also, Mr. Su, if you have any concerns about volcanoes, it’s best not to choose Hawaii. The Hawaiian Islands are a famous active volcanic area in the world. In fact, many islands have become popular because of its lava.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘I see.’
After touring the island twice more, Su Yang and the rest returned to the beach and watched the video taken by the drone of places which were inconvenient to climb for Su Yang’s convenience.
After watching everything, Su Yang had a much better understanding of the situation on the island.
He felt quite satisfied with what he had seen. In fact, he did not even care that the island was on top of the volcanic crater. ‘At least it’s not on top of an active volcano.
‘Also… I have my system with me, so what’s there for me to be afraid of?’
However, just because he thought that way did not mean that other people thought the same way. For example, the local white middleman had brought many people to look at the island, and he had long but given up hope on selling the island. After all, the conditions on the island were too poor.
Other than its geographical location, there was no fresh water, no dock, no living quarters, no plants and no animals. Therefore, it was almost impossible to transform that island into a place suitable for human habitation.
It was extremely difficult to even turn it into a holiday resort since it required huge amount of fundings.
Moreover… There were other problems on the island…
When he returned, Su Yang told Xiao Fang that he was interested in the island and wanted to buy it so that Xiao Fang could contact the seller.
As for how to purchase the island, Su Yang and Xiao Fang had already discussed it when they were preparing to buy the island in China. They would use the more common method of buying the island overseas, purchasing it through a shell company registered overseas.
Generally speaking, because the laws of each country were different, there were probably different restrictions on foreigners buying their own islands. In addition, the domestic control over foreign exchange was stricter than the taxes of 2 countries buying and selling islands. Therefore, according to everyone’s situation, the purchasing method was often different.
For example, Su Yang’s situation was more commonly seen. He would set up an overseas company whose shares were owned within the country. Then, he would mortgage his assets into USD and invest in overseas companies where that particular overseas company would make the purchase directly.
As for the registration of overseas companies and the foreign exchange of loans from the banks, Xiao Fang had connections to handle them.
After everything was settled, Su Yang and Janet left the hotel and waited for the seller to arrive to start the negotiation.
In order to complete the Bronze Mission, Su Yang had watched many local Hawaiian dramas and movies. Therefore, he had a good understanding of their local language, nullifying any language barrier he might have had in Honolulu.
Walking along the wooden plankway of Waikiki Beach, Su Yang found a small shop and ordered some local delicacies. Su Yang and Janet sat opposite each other.
Not long after, the dishes were served. There were “Lomi-Lomi Salmon Salad”, “Poke”, “Steamed Minced Meat”, “Fried Fish Steak” and so on.
These were all recommended by Little Deeny to Su Yang.
Su Yang scooped a spoonful of lomi-lomi salmon salad. It melted in his mouth and was delicious.
‘In the local language, “Lomi-Lomi” means massaging. So the meaning behind this dish is salad made through a massaged salmon?
‘Hmm… I suppose that’s what it means.’
After taking a bite, Su Yang gestured for Janet to eat with him before he started eating himself.
Su Yang looked up and realized that Janet did not move at all.
‘Janet was one of the monsters of [Advanced Life Evolution] and is no different from a human, so he could definitely eat.
‘Moreover, he would usually eat some food such as sashimi, oysters and so on. Overall, his taste is similar to when he was a shark, seafood.
‘This time in Hawaii, I’ve also ordered seafood, a plate of fried fish steak for example. But why isn’t Janet eating it?
‘Could there be… poison in the food?’
Su Yang stopped his knife and fork and asked Janet in confusion, “What’s wrong? Why aren’t you eating?”
Janet’s face was grim as he said to Su Yang, “Master, I have discovered many of my comrades.”
“Comrades?” Su Yang was stunned.” Sharks?”
Janet nodded. “Yes. A lot. I want to help them.”
Su Yang put down his cutlery and looked around. When he realized that no one had noticed him, he asked, “How do you want to help?”
Janet shook her head. “I don’t know. I just feel like they’re lost. Wandering around in the ocean with no purpose or pursuit, like the walking dead.”
Su Yang was speechless.
‘Aren’t animals normally like this?
‘Eat, sleep and eat again. Then, produce their offspring when they come of age and grow old…
‘How am I supposed to help them?
‘Teach them how to draw and do maths? Teach them not to eat fish?
‘Wouldn’t I get eaten first?’
Su Yang continued to stuff food into his mouth.
After he took 2 bites, Su Yang suddenly stopped.
Because he realized something was not right. He and Janet had only gone to that small island today. Where did Janet find his comrades?
At that thought, Su Yang turned to look at Janet. “Janet, where did you find your comrades?”
Janet’s expression did not change. “Near our future base.”
‘So it really is near the island!
‘But… That’s not right!
‘Why wasn’t there any information about there being sharks nearby?’
Su Yang looked at Janet and asked, “Are there many of them?”
Janet nodded. “I sensed 7 or 8.”
‘7 or 8 sharks?
‘And they’re all near the island?’
Su Yang was surprised.
‘Sharks aren’t aquatic lives who live in packs, so why are there so many sharks near the island?
‘Why didn’t I know about this?’
