My courtyard shelter

After the Spring Festival, Lele and Ji Yin finally took time out and embarked on a journey around the world.

Their first stop was Toyama City, Nisang Island.

No, Nisang Island is no longer an island now. Because of the drop in sea level, it has been connected to the continental shelf a few years ago, and even has a train.

After leaving Toyama Airport, the couple stayed in the best local Toyama Hotel. Fushan City is currently the largest city in Nisang, and it has risen due to marine aquaculture.

The super fishery that Xu Dong envisioned at the time has gradually become a reality.

After a day of rest, the couple took a boat to Bei Island, an island in the center of Nisang Sea. The reason for this name is mainly because its shape is very similar to a shell.

The temperature in Nisang Sea in February is relatively low. There are many ice activities on the island. The couple fully experienced a series of activities such as skating, sledding, curling and winter fishing.

Just as the couple was about to leave Nisang, they unexpectedly received an invitation letter. The president of the Nisang Chamber of Commerce wanted to do his best to be a good host.

Lele called his eldest brother and found out that this President Nakata Yingxiong was actually the son-in-law of the late President Oki. The two families were barely old friends.

In order not to be rude, the couple could only bring gifts and attend the banquet on time.

On the side of President Nakata, considering that the guests were not business people and afraid of disturbing the other party, the banquet was arranged in a private club and was not held in a big way.

After the two sides met, they exchanged a few simple pleasantries.

Then, President Nakata took the initiative to care about the recent situation of Chairman Xu.

"My father is in good health. He has quit smoking and drinking. He just reads the news every day and stays in the garden all day to take care of his flowers and plants."

Lele replied with a smile.

"When my father-in-law was still alive, he often told us that Chairman Xu had done a great favor to our Nisang Chamber of Commerce. We sincerely hope that he can live a long life."

"Thank you!"

Chairman Nakata then tried to probe: "You two, next month is the fifth anniversary of the establishment of our fishery. We want to invite Chairman Xu to come and visit the fishery. Speaking of which, your father has also contributed to the success of this fishery."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Ji Yin asked curiously.

"At a business gathering that year, Chairman Xu casually proposed the idea of ​​building a fishery to my father-in-law. Although we had similar ideas within our chamber of commerce, we were always hesitant.

But after your father spoke up, our chamber of commerce quickly strengthened its determination. After all, there was a consensus in the business circle that the project that Chairman Xu had chosen was definitely promising."

Chairman Nakata said with a look of relief.

Thankfully, they acted early and won one of the four artificial fisheries of the Blue Alliance in one fell swoop, and it was also the only cold water fishery with huge economic value.

Here I would like to add that the other three major fisheries are: South China Sea fishery, Gulf of Mexico fishery, and Eastern Mediterranean fishery.

Lele felt honored on the spot. He did not expect that his father's casual words would indirectly promote the super large fishery in front of him.

"How about this, I will help you persuade my father later. My father has rarely attended formal activities in recent years, and I don't know his specific ideas."

"Thank you very much!"

President Nakata was overjoyed.

He was elected as the chairman not long ago.

If Chairman Xu could be invited, it would undoubtedly greatly increase his prestige.

After the banquet, President Nakata immediately presented a valuable thank-you gift.

A 380-pound bluefin tuna.

It is said that there is only one in the entire Blue Star.

Lele did not refuse. This bluefin tuna reminded her of her childhood. At that time, although their family was not as prominent as it is now, it was extremely warm.

The small yard was well-fed and well-clothed, which formed a sharp contrast with the outside world and successfully sheltered the best childhood of the five siblings.

Finally, the tuna was divided into three.

The largest one was transported back to Sydney through the internal logistics channel of the Nisang Chamber of Commerce;

Of the remaining two small ones, one was mailed to Nanfei, and the other was taken to Beijing.

…

The old house in Beijing had been built long ago, and it was well maintained on a daily basis, so the couple moved in directly.

After more than ten years of reconstruction and development, Beijing has finally regained its original momentum. It is not only the capital of Daxia, but also the headquarters of the Blue Alliance.

The population has risen sharply from less than eight million to more than 28 million, and it is also the most populous city in the entire Blue Star.

In comparison, Shanghai, which ranks second, has only a little over 13 million, and Yangcheng, which ranks third, has less than 10 million.

The reason is simple.

Since the establishment of the Blue Alliance, a large wave of immigration has quickly set off, and it has not stopped until now. The other side of the ocean has become the most popular destination for new citizens, with millions of people flowing in every year.

After all, it is almost an undeveloped virgin land, full of opportunities, and several members of the old Xu family followed the trend and ran over there.

They are all doing quite well now!

Let's get back to the point. After putting away the luggage, Lele took Ji Yin to visit the old house. Unlike Sydney, the old house here seems too low-key.

The Anhui-style architecture, low walls, and "small" courtyards are surrounded by newly developed communities and business districts, giving a sense of tranquility in a busy city.

After the visit, Ji Yin asked casually:

"Wife, if my parents want to move back, should we come back with them?"

Lele suddenly looked hesitant.

The living conditions in Sydney are better, and the houses are sentimental, especially those small plantations, which embody her countless efforts.

However, Sydney also has obvious disadvantages.

In recent years, the economic situation of the entire Kangaroo Country has been much worse than before, and the urban population has been declining year by year. In comparison, the capital side is more suitable for the development of juniors.

"Let's take a look first!"

Ji Yin quickly comforted him: "Honey, if you are reluctant to let go of Xueli, there is no need to move here with you. I will guard our old house with you."

"My father and mother are older..."

Lele especially couldn’t bear to leave her father.

All these years, she has been taking care of the two elders.

We must be separated all of a sudden, I am definitely not used to it.

"Then let's move here."

Lele shook his head: "Let me think about it again. Grandma is in good health and she should be fine for another ten years. We don't have to rush."

Half an hour later, Xiao Huzi and his whole family came to the door in person. He had just received the news from his grandma and rushed over impatiently.

"Auntie, why didn't you inform me in advance? How about we pick you up at the airport?"

Han Mengyu said politely.

"No need, you are busy with work. Besides, your great-grandmother had her birthday last time. Didn't we just meet?" Lele took the baby from the other person's arms and said, "Xiaolulu, do you still remember my aunt?"
