In the second half of 2031, the Northeast Incident shocked the world.
Swedish newspapers carried the news.
After Jin Quan found out, he looked up to the sky and sighed. What he hates most in his life is the Japanese. Now that the Japanese have invaded the three northeastern provinces, the land has been lost, and the people have been devastated, which makes him really sad and inexplicable.
Xiang Nan was very angry when he heard about this incident. He wrote "On the Songhua River" specifically for this purpose, and then telegraphed it back to China and published it in Ta Kung Pao.
“My home is on the Songhua River in Northeast China
?There are forest coal mines there
?And there are soybeans and sorghum all over the mountains and plains
…
?Mom and Dad, Mom and Dad.
when,
In order to have a happy gathering together? ! "
? With touching lyrics, touching melody, and the grief and indignation of the country and family, this song was quickly sung all over the country, awakening the nation’s enthusiasm and determination to resist Japan, and igniting the anti-Japanese beacon fire across China.
…
Entering 32 years, Leng Qingqiu completed the postgraduate course and officially graduated.
?She originally wanted to continue studying for a Ph.D., but was dissuaded by Xiang Nan.
"Literature is a major that originally tests talents and works, but the academic requirements are not high. Throughout the ages, so many writers have never even gone to college, but they can still write works that will last forever." Xiang Nan laughed. Said, “On the contrary, those with PhDs in literature may not have a successful work.
So in my opinion, literature should still focus on creation, and it is not advisable to blindly pursue high academic qualifications. Moreover, pursuing high academic qualifications while neglecting creation is going in the opposite direction, seeking fish from a tree. "
Leng Qingqiu felt that it made sense when he heard what he said.
So he no longer thought about studying for a doctorate, but stayed at home and prepared to write a novel about the Great Depression.
?However, just a few days after she was about to start writing, Xiang Nan discovered that she was pregnant.
This is another good thing for the Jin family.
For this reason, Xiang Nan bought a small island to celebrate.
…
In fact, after the stock market crash, Xiang Nan already had enough money to buy the best house in Sweden.
?It’s just that Leng Qingqiu still wanted to study at that time, and everyone had just suffered from the Great Depression. It was a time of great sorrow. He spent a huge sum of money to buy a villa, and it was easy for others to hate him.
That’s why he waited three years for Leng Qingqiu to graduate with a master’s degree and for people to adapt to the Great Depression before he spent money to buy his first mansion.
??The mansion is located on a small island off the coast of Stockholm. The entire island covers an area of ??more than 900 acres. There is only one very large mansion, which can be said to be a single-family home.
??The original owner of this mansion is Gustav Lagheim, a well-known Swedish billionaire. He was once a tycoon in the financial world, president of Handelsbanken, and his net worth was once as high as 50 million kronor.
?This small island called Osleta was specially bought by Gustav and built into a villa for the family to use for weekend holidays.
Unfortunately, during the Great Depression that broke out in 2029, Sveriges Sveriges Bank failed to invest and lost more than 300 million kronor, causing the bank to become insolvent and declare bankruptcy.
??Gustav also lost money due to investment, and his family property dropped to zero overnight. From the top giant in the industry in the past, he has become a super rich man with tens of millions of debts. Finally, unable to bear the pressure, he jumped into the sea and died.
The small island of Osleta was also auctioned for this reason, but due to the high price, it was repeatedly rejected. Until now, it was acquired by Xiang Nan at a price of one million crowns. The small island of Oresta covers an area of ??1,000 acres. Not only does it have an almost invincible sea view, but it is also a single-family home. You can buy it for only 1 million kronor, it’s really worth it.
You must know that the property rights of this island are permanent and can be passed on to future generations. At that time, whether it is used for residence, vacation, or real estate development, it will be up to the island owner.
The reason why Xiang Nan wanted to buy the island was because of its cost-effectiveness and freedom.
…
?After buying the small island of Oresta, Xiang Nan planted trees all over the island. Not only did he require the entire trees to be transplanted, but they were also planted strictly according to the positions he determined, with no deviation from the tree.
?His picky behavior baffled the tree planters, who felt that this Oriental was really too difficult to take care of.
??Had it not been for the current Great Depression, it would have been difficult to find a job to support a family, and they would not be willing to suffer this. But now in order to make ends meet, they could only listen to Xiang Nan''s instructions and plant the trees meticulously according to the location he directed.
After the trees were planted, Xiang Nan moved his family to the island.
"Yanxi, why are there so many trees on this island?" Bai Xiuzhu looked at the trees on the island. In addition to apples, sweet pears, persimmons, cherries and other fruit trees, there are also spruce, pine, birch, poplar, etc. She couldn''t help but be surprised.
She didn’t know that these trees were actually planted by Xiang Nan, and she thought they were left by the original island owner.
"Who knows, maybe the original owner likes to plant trees." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Okay, come with me and don''t fall behind. This island is a bit weird, and you will get lost if you are not careful."
?He then led them through the woods in a zigzag manner and came to the mansion.
“Yan Xi, why is this road so difficult to walk? It’s full of twists and turns.” Leng Qingqiu said doubtfully.
After entering the woods, I didn’t go straight, but turned left and right, and sometimes I even had to walk backwards, which was really confusing. She almost fell behind and got lost because she didn''t follow anyone just now.
"I heard that the original owner of this island believed in Loki, the evil **** in Norse mythology, so he made this island weird." Xiang Nan explained, "So be careful and don''t get separated. Otherwise, the island It’s so big, it’s hard to find if it gets lost.”
"No way?! Is it so dangerous? Then you still want to buy this island?" Xiao Lian asked in confusion.
"Isn''t this good? It''s hard for us to leave, and it''s even harder for thieves to leave." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Wouldn''t it be unclean and who would bother us?"
When everyone heard this, they all nodded.
…
After Xiang Nan bought the island, he deliberately planted those trees on the island according to the Qimen Dunjia technique taught by Huang Yaoshi.
?As a result, if others want to go to the island to cause trouble, that is absolutely impossible, and it is better than any security measures.
Xiang Nan knew that the future was World War II. Although Sweden was not involved in the war, it was still better to be prepared.
Besides, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must not have the intention to guard against others. After all, they are foreigners, and with so much money, it is inevitable that they will not be coveted.
??Now that we have this island as a base, even if we have thousands of troops, long guns and short artillery, we can''t do anything to him. It''s like a paradise.
In order to better prepare for the upcoming World War II, Xiang Nan also built warehouses on the island and stored a large amount of supplies.
Such as cans, sugar, fuel, honey, coffee, ham, cheese, flour, rice, charcoal, coal, red wine, white wine, cooking oil, etc.
??Before the war, Xiang Nan bought boatloads of goods, which made Bai Xiuzhu, Leng Qingqiu, Xiao Lian and others feel a little baffled when they saw it.
