Chapter 809 Zhou Liuqiu's Savior Rui

Chapter 809 Zhou·Ryukyu's Savior·Rui

Zhou Rui simply shook hands with the ambassador girl. Who knows what this position is for.

Weng Changzhixiong introduced other important people in Ryukyu one by one, including other small leaders in the current grass-roots team, local artists, agricultural representatives, workers' representatives and so on.

The mass line is well done.

Zhou Rui also introduced Khalid, who was traveling with him, to Weng Changzhixiong. Weng Changzhixiong naturally did not dare to be arrogant, because he was the God of Wealth!

When the heads met, the female high school student was still blowing hard, determined to use her best skills to welcome Zhou Rui's arrival and let Master Zhou feel what it means to welcome Zhou Rui with a line of people.

After that, everyone got on their own cars. When the motorcade drove away, the welcoming team trotted along for a while.

In the Hongqi N501, Lintuo sat in the co-pilot seat, and there were only Zhou Rui and Weng Changzhixiong in the back seat.

Weng Chang Zhixiong did not sit as comfortably as Zhou Rui. Half of his butt was outside, and he leaned slightly to one side. He did not feel like the head of Ryukyu at all, but rather acted like a subordinate.

Zhou Rui said lightly: "Governor Gu made it so grand this time. Thank you for your trouble."

Weng Chang Zhixiong said with a smile: "No, no, I hope Mr. Zhou will not despise us for not entertaining you well. This time I will definitely take you to experience the customs of Ryukyu."

The car drove away from the dock, and Zhou Rui began to observe the surroundings curiously.

Ryukyu is an archipelago, but most of the human activity areas are on the main island, which was formerly called Okinami Island. It has now restored its old name, called "Ryukyu Main Island."

The area of ​​"Ryukyu Main Island" is only one-sixth of that of Shanghai, and it is a long and narrow terrain from north to south. This is also the reason why it was "comprehensively" damaged after the tsunami last year.

The narrowest place is only three or four kilometers wide, and the sea water rushes directly from one end to the other.

Why can the tsunami from the western Pacific Ocean block the ports facing China in the east?

It rolled from the west to the east!

Not to mention the other small archipelagos.

Originally, there were about 1.2 million people here, not counting tourists and American bacteria, including locals and about one-third of the people on the main island. After the accident, almost all the people on the main island ran away, and many locals also left for refuge.

A census was organized some time ago, and now there are less than 600,000 people left in Ryukyu.

This size is the level of a Chinese county.

No wonder the Ryukyu people regard Zhou Rui as a savior.

Because Zhou Rui can really save.

Not to mention the will behind Zhou Rui.

Zhou Rui observed the scene outside the window. He has not yet entered the urban area, and he can't see ruins or debris for the time being, but there is still a sense of desolation. Even some internal depressions have been soaked in seawater and have been unable to drain, leaving some ponds.

This is not a place with beautiful scenery. The sea water is destructive to land creatures. There is no grass and it is all muddy.

Continue to move forward, and gradually it looks like a town, but you can also see ruins, and many of them have grown weeds.

The condition of the road is also hard to describe. Even the most important main road is still rugged and uneven. The N501, which is known for its stability and has a self-weight comparable to that of a truck, feels shaky when driving.

If you think from an engineering perspective, the more complex the system, the more troublesome it is to recover, and human society is the most complex system in nature.

There is only one kind of disaster, but the needs it brings are diverse.

Food supply, energy supply, ruins cleaning, infectious disease prevention and control, public security control, and infrastructure maintenance can list dozens of items.

I dare not imagine what this place looked like in the first two months. Now, with the support of the committee's materials, order has been restored to a certain extent.

It was not until we drove into the most important city of Naha here that the surrounding situation was better. Because Naha City is located in the "roughest" section of the main island of Ryukyu, the tsunami did not completely submerge it.

By the way, continuing the administrative division of the main island, the "city" of Ryukyu is not the same as the "city" of China. It is a bit close to the concept of "market". Often a business district plus some supporting facilities will be renamed "something city".

Naba is the only proper urban area in Ryukyu. Other places may be more appropriately called towns or villages.

Zhou Rui's accommodation on this trip is a park in Naba City, with beautiful scenery, elegant environment, and trees blocking distant peeping.

There is a traditional Ryukyu house inside, which covers a large area. If you have to say it, it is similar to the feeling of a mixture of Tang-style architecture and quadrangle.

It is said that it was originally a separate courtyard of the Ryukyu royal family in the last century, and later it was changed into an exhibition hall. Now it has become a place to live for Zhou Rui.

Finding such a place is somewhat flattering.

Zhou Rui has no feeling for the "royal courtyard". It is what era it is. The Zhenghuang Banner only dares to say a few words when grabbing seats on the bus. The Ryukyu royal family is nothing.

On the contrary, I am somewhat curious about this architectural style. The Tang style is too obvious. If you ignore other things, you may even feel that you are in a corner of an ancient town scenic spot in China, or a small Taoist temple on a mountain in China.

Ong Chang Zhixiong naturally accompanied him and said: "Ryukyu has admired Chinese culture since ancient times, and its food, clothing, housing, transportation, literature, rituals and music have all been deeply influenced."

Zhou Rui nodded and looked at the door for a moment. After a few minutes, everyone got off the car one after another.

Khalid saw the vermilion gate and couldn't help but sighed: "The whole of East Asia cannot be separated from the influence of China"

Zhou Rui spread his hands: "The ancestors are too awesome, and we are also headaches"

As time passed, several traitors emerged who rebelled against Tiangang.

Speaking of which, Ryukyu can be considered a model among the vassals. He never disobeyed, but later lost it because he was destroyed, not because of betrayal.

Wang Tao even adjusted his glasses: "If it weren't for the real feeling of seasickness, I would have thought I was still in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai."

This "village" will be the place where Zhou Rui and his party will fall. Okinawa is not a big island. No matter where you go, you can come back here at night.

Although it is Ryukyu's territory, this villa is all managed by people from the "Reconstruction Investment Committee", that is, Chinese people, and even the chefs are their own.

Everyone put away their things, and since they had to go to the "Governor's Mansion" soon, they had a simple lunch, prepared by their own chef.

When dishes such as braised pork, West Lake beef soup, and beef brisket stewed with tomatoes were served, Wang Tao felt that his cerebellum had shrunk. Where on earth was he?

By the way, Khalid was picky about what he ate and ignored the braised pork. People like him who fly around the world and hold high positions would not be so rigid.

Otherwise, how can I eat a steak in New York and ask if it can be steamed?

Lin Tuo whispered: "The supplies here are scarce and we can only make some home-cooked dishes. Don't blame Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Rui shook his head: "It's okay, it's fine."

Especially when I saw the miserable state of Ryukyu on the way here, it was already extremely rich in comparison.

Look at how much fun these Ryukyu heads are eating. It feels like they haven’t eaten meat for a long time. Even Yui Shingen is staring, looking like she wants to eat but is afraid of being rude.

Zhou Rui asked curiously: "Is the protein supply here insufficient?"

Lin Tuo has been here for a long time and has investigated all aspects clearly. He said: "In terms of seafood, there is barely some output, but the recovery of land-based aquaculture is far away, and there is an urgent shortage of meat, eggs and milk. There are only a few farmers. Raised on a small scale by my own family.”

Modern breeding industry, feed, medicine and management are all indispensable

Of course, as a small place, Ryukyu originally relied on trade to obtain most of its meat, eggs, and milk, but after the disaster, it was hard to get out and the savings were almost exhausted. The people on the island are not philanthropic.

If you don’t have money, you’ll have nothing to eat!

In the most difficult time, an East Asian island took the script of the hungry wasteland of Africa.

"Now that the God of Agriculture supplies basic vegetables and relief supplies provide basic food, there is a certain guarantee, but the variety will naturally not be that rich."

Zhou Rui nodded. He was actually full, but he estimated that once he put down his chopsticks, people like Liu Qiu would not dare to continue, so they pretended to continue to fiddle with the bones, and asked Lin Tuo to add two meat dishes.

Zhou Rui didn't put down his chopsticks until the newly added dishes were also dazzled.

Said: "Let's go and have a look at the governor's office."
