Chapter 898: Indigenous Fishermen From Lantau Island!
Although Wangtung Bay belongs to Lantau Island, it is still undeveloped except for trees.
Apart from this, it is not high here, and the high place is not here.
When Yang Ming was watching there, Mai Lisi and others were also watching.
There is no development here, so naturally you can't get in. There are many mosquitoes.
Before coming, Lin Xiuzhi had brought mosquito repellent, otherwise, she might really get bitten by those mosquitoes.
Yang Ming did not stay.
After asking someone to leave a sign, Yang Ming and others left here, got on the big boat, and left by boat on the shore of Lantau Island.
I don’t know how long it’s been open.
Yang Ming saw several shirtless fishermen casting nets on nearby boats.
These people should live on Lantau Island.
Yang Ming let the big boat approach and waved to the fishermen.
Several naked fishermen stopped to fish and looked at Yang Ming and others curiously.
In normal times, basically no one comes here, not even the Sir on the water in Xiangjiang River comes here to patrol.
"Brothers, do you live nearby?"
Yang Ming asked.
A fisherman pointed not far away, implying that they lived there.
Yang Ming looked over and saw some buildings over there, but not many. They should be temporary residences built by Lantau natives or nearby fishermen.
Ordinary people would not come here, not even those fugitives.
At this time, Lantau Island really had nothing except that it was huge and still undeveloped. When you came here, you really could only feed the mosquitoes with blood.
"We'll dock there."
When this big boat stopped at a nearby beach.
Yang Ming, Mailisi, Lin Xiuzhi, Chen Bo, Song Shaoguang and others got off the ship. An engineer said: "Boss, this area is named Changsha Village, one is Upper Changsha and the other is Lower Changsha."
Changsha Village?
Yang Ming may have been here in his previous life and had no impression of it.
Maybe thirty or forty years later, things will be different here.
At this point, the beach here still looks pretty good.
They had already seen several children without clothes running, and the women looked over. They were also curious about the sudden intrusion of strangers like Yang Ming into this place.
Of course, Chen Zhenhua, Zhang Guohua and others were by Yang Ming's side.
Yang Ming waved to the children.
There were a few children who were timid and had probably never seen strangers before, so they hurriedly hid behind the women.
Just now, Yang Ming saw on the boat that the men who were fishing naked from the waist up had returned. They also looked at Yang Ming and others with some vigilance.
At first, these people felt that this young man was somewhat familiar.
I couldn't recognize it for a while.
When they carefully recalled where they had seen it, they exchanged some words, and someone hurriedly ran to the house on the shore and took out a few pornographic newspapers.
Isn't this young man headed by Sir Yang, the chairman of the Imperial Group?
Chairman of Imperial Group?
Sir Young?
Such a big shot would actually come here.
These people usually fish, except for some of the leftovers they eat and sell on Hong Kong Island or Cheung Chau Island. It is precisely because of that that they know the news about the Imperial Group and Sir Yang.
"Hello, are you Sir Yang?"
"Hello, my name is Yang Ming."
After learning Sir Yang's identity, these people relaxed their vigilance.
Yang Ming looked at the houses here curiously.
Except for some simple houses made of stones, ship planks, iron sheets, etc., there were probably more than twenty people living in a few simple houses. Apart from these people, Yang Ming did not see anyone else.
When someone went to bring a stool for Sir Yang to sit down.
Yang Ming thanked them.
While we were sitting there, a woman hurriedly went to bring the boiled hot water.
"Brothers, are you the fishermen here?"
Yang Ming asked.
"Yes, Sir Yang."
"How long have you lived here?"
"We make a living by fishing here. Our ancestors first came here, probably hundreds of years ago."
Hundreds of years?
That is the indigenous people of Lantau Island.
If they are immigrants, they are also indigenous people who immigrated here hundreds of years ago.
Yang Ming knew that most of the fishermen from China or Southeast Asia who came to Xiangjiang went to Kowloon and Hong Kong Island. It was impossible for them to come to such a place.
The environment here is really bad, almost the same as in remote mountain villages in China.
However, it is close to the sea and you can usually make a living by fishing.
"Are you the only ones nearby?"
"There used to be people there, but then some people moved away."
Yang Ming knew that in the early years of Xiangjiang, there were a large number of people living on the water. These people were called the Dan family.
When the Dan family was at its largest, there were probably two to three hundred thousand people. People like Huo Yingdong, Chow Yun-fat and others were all born in the Dan family.
Looking at these people in front of him, Yang Ming guessed that they might have lived on the water before.
However, living on the water is definitely not as safe as on land.
Yang Ming asked many more questions, and they all answered truthfully.
They didn't know why Sir Yang asked this.
"If you were asked to move to another place one day, would you be willing?" Yang Ming asked.
At this time, these people can only make a living by fishing. Children have no books to read. Basically, when the children are about the same age, they follow the adults to go fishing, generation after generation.
In fact, fishing is not that easy. Even though the marine fish resources here are relatively rich, it is usually not suitable to go out to sea.
Although these places are not very deep.
Let them move away?
Where to move to?
"Sir Yang, where do you want us to move to?"
"New Territories, Kowloon, or even Hong Kong Island."
These people were shocked.
Yang Ming did not say why he asked them to move away.
Yang Ming knew that these people had lived here for a long time. If Lantau Island was to be blown up, the natives or fishermen in these places would definitely move away.
Even if they wanted to come back, they would have to go to nearby places or reclaim land to rebuild high-rise buildings before they could come back.
Yang Ming knew that the real interest issue might be the interest issue of these people.
These people are just ordinary people, how many interest issues do they have?
Kowloon and Hong Kong Island mentioned by Yang Ming are the most prosperous places in Hong Kong now. It is convenient to find a job and it is easy for children to go to school. Their men may not have anything, and these women really want to move to those places.
Now the houses and rents in Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are very expensive. Fishing alone is not enough to support a family.
Yang Ming did not say anything more.
When he looked around, there were basically no other people.
Except for these indigenous fishermen, there may be some people who come here for excitement or tourism occasionally, but usually they are the only ones.
Now, Sir Yang, a big man, actually came here, which is really rare.
