Chapter 2879 Buying Redang Island
( ) ( ) Where is Lin Feng?
Everyone should have seen "Summer Mum Tea". There is a very beautiful island in it, and there is a very beautiful beach in the world. This island is called Redang Island, in Malaysia, and was rated as the most beautiful beach in the world by "Summer Mum Tea" (of course, there are better and more beautiful ones). At this moment, Lin Feng is on Redang Island.
As for why Lin Feng is here? Originally, Lin Feng was going to dive far away and wait for Zhan Qixiong to rescue him. As a result, Zhan Qixiong's "Wind God" was detained by the "Sixth Fleet", saying that it would be released only after the United States confirmed that the death of Major General Joseph had nothing to do with Lin Feng. In the end, although Zhan Qixiong's momentum of dying together forced the Sixth Fleet to release people, it was impossible to rescue Lin Feng. After all, the Sixth Fleet has been watching. If they find that Lin Feng is not dead and is still nearby, this drama will not be able to continue.
So, in the end, out of helplessness, after several twists and turns, and with the influence of wind and waves, Lin Feng arrived at Redang Island in Malaysia, which is adjacent to the Philippines. After arriving on the island, Lin Feng bought the entire island directly. Of course, if the island was chartered in the name of Lin Feng, the plan would be ruined. So, Lin Feng bought it directly.
Of course, the Philippine government does not sell it in principle. After all, Redang Island can bring a lot of tourism tax revenue to the government every year, attracting a large number of people to travel to Malaysia. Especially Chinese tourists, since the filming of "Summer Momo Tea", there are more tourists. But this time it was the former richest man in Malaysia, Qiu Deba, who came forward and said that he wanted to develop and utilize Redang Island more reasonably. Faced with Qiu Deba's requirements, plus the offer was really not low-US$2.5 billion.
After a little consideration, the Malaysian government sold it. Although the island was sold. It seems to be a big loss, but in fact, the island has been sold, and the annual business tax must be paid. It's just that some land taxes are reduced. And if you spend so much money to buy the island, you can't just use it for personal vacation, you will definitely develop it. In this way, the Malaysian government can collect taxes and make money.
"Thank you, Mr. Qiu!" Lin Feng said comfortably while lying on the recliner, looking at the blue sea in front of him.
"Haha, Brother Lin, your thank you is so distant. You paid for the island, and I didn't pay a penny. I just showed up on your behalf. It's just a small favor. Why should I thank you?" Qiu Debao laughed and waved his hand.
Lin Feng shrugged and stopped being polite. At their level, if they really want to talk about friendship, then don't say thank you too much. It will be distant if you say thank you too much. You are really kind. I will remember it and pay you back in the future.
"By the way, Brother Lin, if you don't mind, I'm really curious. Why did you buy this Redang Island?" Qiu Debao asked with some curiosity. Although he has reached the age of knowing his destiny this year and his health is very poor, he has not been moving around for these years and has been recuperating at home.
But although this man is old, his curiosity is still there. Of course, his curiosity is also controlled within a reasonable range.
For example, after Lin Feng faked his death and contacted him, he did not ask about it. Including when he received Lin Feng's call and went to rescue Lin Feng, he didn't bring anyone with him. Except for an old housekeeper, all the crew members didn't know who he rescued from the sea. And these people were controlled after rescuing Lin Feng. Before Lin Feng was completely fine, he would not release these people, so as not to affect Lin Feng's plan.
Of course, he was curious about this matter, but he would never ask. Because it was taboo. But about Lin Feng's acquisition of Redang Island, it was not a taboo, so Qiu Deba wanted to ask.
"Haha, Qiu Lao, my reason is very simple, because when I watched "Summer Momo Tea" that year, I found that there was such a beautiful sea in this world, it was so beautiful. At that time, I was thinking, it would be perfect if I could come here. But at that time, I was very poor, very poor, and I wanted to come here, I really didn't know when." Lin Feng sighed.
This year, naturally refers to the time when he was not reborn. At that time, the family was very poor, very poor, really poor. There was nothing except a broken computer. At that time, I was really poor, and I didn't have any ideals or wishes. As for traveling, it was simply a luxury that could not be more luxurious.
"Now I have money, and I just happened to come here again, so I just bought it to fulfill my dream back then, and it is also a reminder to myself - I have money now, and I can buy whatever I want." Lin Feng said, and his voice gradually became colder. "It is also a warning to myself that if I want to live happily like now, I must be richer, richer, and richer. Anyone who prevents me from making money is my enemy!"
Malaysia is a tropical country with a year-round temperature of around 28 degrees. It is summer all year round here, and it is a good season for diving. But at this moment, Qiu Deba felt a bone-chilling chill. He seemed to be sitting in Siberia, not Redang Island.
Lin Feng took a deep breath and stood up.
"Mr. Qiu, I need your help in a few days. Give me a boat so that I can go to the deep sea." Lin Feng looked at the sea with deep eyes.
"Brother Lin, there is no need to ask for help for such a small matter, just ask directly." Qiu Deba nodded.
"Haha, thank you very much." Lin Feng clasped his fists towards Qiu Deba and said nothing more. He accepted this favor.
Khoo Teck Puat smiled slightly. He did such a big favor to Lin Feng just for this moment. Although Lin Feng did not say it, he would definitely remember his favor. That way, after he passed away, with Lin Feng's care, his descendants should not be too reckless and squander his family property. There was no way, Ku Teck Puat had many children. 3 sons and 11 daughters. And he was 87 years old this year, and the eldest son was over 60. This son's son, and his son's son's son, added up, his family had more than a hundred people. Once he died, it would be a mess. And the only person who could suppress his children, among the people he knew and could trust, was Lin Feng.
It was strange to say that Ku Teck Puat and Lin Feng had not met many times, but they trusted each other. In addition to the eye contact, the most important thing was Lin Feng's reputation. Lin Feng's reputation of being honest and trustworthy made Ku Teck Puat believe that if he entrusted his affairs after his death to Lin Feng, Lin Feng would not embezzle his family property. In this kind of thing, in today's world, Kuo Teck Puat only trusts Lin Feng.
"By the way, brother Lin, how are you going to deal with this Redang Island?" Kuo Teck Puat asked.
If you spend 2.5 billion US dollars to buy this island and don't open it to the outside world, the government will have opinions. Although there are many islands like this in Malaysia, Redang Island is too famous. If it becomes a private island, there will really be complaints from the people. Continued development is also one of the conditions that Kuo Teck Puat and the government have agreed on.
"Haha, this beach and the area around it, which is the beach in the movie "Summer Mum Tea", will definitely be developed to the outside world. But the northern part of the island, those places that have not been developed yet, will not be developed to the outside world. The jungle will separate it in the middle and make it my private holiday center." Lin Feng said with a smile.
Although Malaysia is good, the pitfall is that the Male Airport is too damn small. Every time I go there, I can only take a small plane. This model that exceeds the Boeing 737 cannot dock. Lin Feng complained every time he went there. So, when the Maldives did not solve the airport problem, this Redang Island can also be a substitute. Moreover, it is relatively close here, and it is convenient to command everything during vacation.
"Well, that's good." Qiu Delu sighed. If Lin Feng really closed himself off to enjoy himself, it would be difficult for him to explain to the Malaysian government.
"When the renovation is done, I will have to trouble you, Mr. Qiu, and you will need to take care of it in all aspects." Lin Feng said with a smile.
"Haha, those are all trivial matters. If you have something to say, just tell me. As long as I am not dead yet!" Qiu Delu smiled bleakly.
87 years old, and in poor health, it is basically time to see the King of Hell.
Hearing Qiu Delu's sigh, Lin Feng's eyes lit up. It seems that business is coming.
"Haha, Mr. Qiu, I have a business to discuss with you. However, if I say it out, I am afraid that you will say that I am not kind." Lin Feng smiled.
Qiu Delu was a little scared by Lin Feng's smile. This guy laughs so badly that people can tell at a glance that he is not doing well. But for businessmen, they are not afraid of business difficulties, but they are afraid of no profits. As long as there is profit, they can talk about anything. Honesty, go away!
"Brother Lin, tell me, if you don't tell me, how can you tell me if I'm honest or not!" Qiu Deba's eyes lit up.
"Mr. Qiu, do you really want to talk?" Lin Feng frowned, thought about it, and waved his hand, so as not to be blamed by you and say that I'm cheating my father, forget it, forget it!"
"Hey, brother Lin, you are really not honest, how can you be like this, you say halfway and then stop, you are too tempting, too wrong!" Qiu Deba stared at Lin Feng, "Hurry up and tell me, otherwise I will be angry with you!"
Lin Feng shrugged helplessly.
"Mr. Qiu, then let me ask you, what do you think is the most important thing for rich people like you and me?" Lin Feng asked seriously.
Qiu Deba said without hesitation, "Health!"
"Yes, that's right. Health is the most important, but it's not entirely right! "Lin Feng said with a smile.
Khoo Teck Puat frowned. For him, health is the most desired thing. Unfortunately, his body was damaged too much when he was young, and even if he is rich now, he can't make up for it. So in Europe and the United States, although 87 years old is considered a very old age, for many rich people, 87 years old can still be very healthy and live a long life, enjoying life to the fullest, while he can only stay in a tropical country like Malaysia, and can't stand the turbulence of the plane.
Rich? No matter how rich you are, you can't buy back your health.
Khoo Teck Puat sighed. (To be continued)
