Chapter 731

Tian Ke knew that her good friend and master had just kicked off the guy named Chu Yang. He was in a bad mood, so he didn't persuade him any more.

Looking at Chai Murong, Tian Ke pondered for a moment. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and said, "Hey, Murong, just now when I went to the lower hall to order a meal, I heard the hotel attendant say that this evening, the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce in Singapore will hold a huge night dragon boat race on St. John's Island. It's said that all Chinese can participate in the dragon boat race, Why don't we go and have a look? "

After a silent sigh, Chai Murong took two steps forward with his arms in his arms, and said: "forget it, it's just a dragon boat race. It's meaningless."

"I'm idle in the hotel, so I'd better go there. If I'm interested, I can take part in the competition."

"Well, well, let's go and have a look." Seeing that Tian Ke wanted to go, Chai Murong couldn't bear to blow her interest again, so he put out the cigarette end and yawned again.

Poor child, poor woman, a woman who has lost her job and love motivation, even if she is a respected Miss Chai, she will feel indifferent to this beautiful world... Looking at the lazy Chai Murong, Tian Ke's eyes show pity.

……

St. John's Island, also known as chezhang mountain, is a holiday island off the southern coast of Singapore, covering an area of about 40.5 hectares.

In 1903, the British colonial government set up a quarantine station. Originally, it only stipulated that if a ship from South China was found to have an infectious disease on board, all the people on board must go to the island for quarantine.

Later, it was changed that all passengers in the command cabin (with the lowest ticket) had to go to the island for quarantine and "disinfection".

They also stipulated that all men and women should take off their clothes for examination. At that time, Chinese women committed suicide by throwing themselves into the sea.

When the news reached the island of Singapore, the Chinese community was in an uproar. The Chinese General Chamber of Commerce submitted a letter of consent to the governor, and the British colonial authorities had to cancel the insulting measures of the quarantine station.

The quarantine station did not stop using until the 1960s.

In order not to forget the humiliating history of the early Chinese coming to the south, the General Chamber of Commerce holds a night dragon boat race every year today to celebrate the success of resisting the British colonists.

So, every year today, tens of thousands of tourists gather on the beach of St. John's Island.

Seventy eight percent of them are Chinese with yellow skin and black eyes.

At 5:30 in the evening, Mr. Chu Yang, who also had yellow skin and black eyes, and Gu mingchuang, who was wearing small sunglasses and a suit, appeared on the beach of St. John's Island.

After weighing the password box covered with a layer of black cloth in his hand, Gu mingchuang looked around the crowd warily. He didn't find anyone carrying the same password box. Then he took a step forward and stood side by side with Chu Yang: "there are so many people here today, and most of them are yellow skinned Chinese."

Pointing to a sign beside the beach, Chu Yang said: "I heard that there is a dragon boat race tonight. It seems that the Xiangfen skeleton is using today's large number of people to cover up its tracks. Let's go and look at the sign. I think she'll see us soon. "

They went to the new billboard and looked up.

The sign explains in detail the origin of the night dragon boat race. Finally, it says: welcome Chinese compatriots from all over the world (foreigners can also participate in the Dragon Boat Race) to commemorate the victory of that year.

This competition does not focus on results, but on form. Participants have to hand in 100 dollars to the organizing committee to find their own dragon boats with tickets.

The dragon boat race will start from St. John's Island, and the first one to reach bud island will win the half championship of 12000 US dollars（ It's about 12 nautical miles one way.)

The first to return from bud island will receive a total champion prize of $36000. Each dragon boat has 12 competitors (small dragon boat). There are 30 people in the large dragon boat, including six semi professional athletes

The two men looked at it for a long time, until their necks were sore, and then they finished reading the advertisements.

"Haha," said Gu mingchuang with a smile, rubbing his sore neck. "Look at the hype mentioned above. In the coming year, I'll have to bring jade Tathagata with me and spend a hundred dollars here. It doesn't matter if I can make achievements. The key is to participate."

Chu Yang nodded and just wanted to say something, but from the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of someone coming from the distant seaside, so he whispered: "Lao Ba, that Li Shuzhen is coming again. Don't look back. She's behind you at two o'clock. "

Gu mingchuang shrugged: "it seems that her ability to track people is not small. As soon as we came here, she appeared."

"To be a qualified pirate, at least you have to have the sense of direction to identify the route in the vast sea. Most of those tracking masters in the world now come from people living on the sea. But I wonder why she hasn't been followed and caught since she has this special body fragrance that will appear when she is sweating on the road

Gu mingchuang gave a very obscene smile and replied in a low voice: "maybe no one is willing to? After all, a woman who perspires will have fragrance is the best

"Well, it seems that those people have the same virtue as you."

After Chu Yang lit a cigarette, he took off his sunglasses and laughed at Li Shuzhen, who was five meters in front of him: "Miss Li, you are not going to take part in the dragon boat race, are you? Hey hey, if it's not for any auction, our brother will have to take part in tonight's competition to feel the solidarity of overseas Chinese. "

Today, Li Shuzhen has changed into a bright yellow sportswear with a bright red belt around her waist, which makes her waist more slender and her legs more slender. Of course, her protruding chest is more prominent. If it wasn't for her "plain" face, she would surely appear in the memories of all visitors to St. John's Island.

Li Shuzhen glanced at Gu mingchuang's box, took out two tickets and two round steel plates from his pocket and handed them to him with a smile: "Mr. Yun, Mr. Gu, our boss has long expected that you would be interested in dragon boat race, so he asked me to give you two tickets. These two steel plates are souvenirs for the dragon boat race. They are specially made by the organizing committee from Italy. They are exquisite collections

Chu Yang took the ticket, handed it to Gu mingchuang, weighed the two small steel plates, said with a smile: "ha ha, a souvenir still needs such a thick steel plate?"

This man doesn't have to look at people with that kind of eyes. In fact, he is very approachable... Li Shuzhen chuckled: "this steel plate has been blessed by the God of the sea, which can make the owner safe at sea. Oh, by the way, all the competitors have to wear them during the competition. "

"It would be better to exchange it for gold. It's a talisman, but it's too heavy." Gu mingchuang took one of them and hung it around his neck. He tossed it back and forth and said to Chu Yang, "our dragon boat number is 32, and the number of oarsmen is 7 and 8."

Chu Yang nodded and put the steel card into his pocket.

"Tonight's auction will be held in bud Island, six nautical miles away from here. If you are lucky, you may win the half championship." Li Shuzhen folded her hands in her trousers pocket and gently twisted her waist: "as for me, I am a semi professional player in the dragon boat race. We are on the same dragon boat, and we are also the contact persons of the two gentlemen at this auction."

Looking at Li Shuzhen's straight chest, Gu mingchuang licked his lips and said with a smile: "if we can work together with Miss Li, we will definitely win the half championship. But what I want to know is, no matter whether we win the auction or not, what should we do when we come back? "

"That's your business. It's none of our business."

Gu mingchuang sighed: "Alas, it's so heartless."

"What's more, all bidders participating in the auction tonight are not allowed to bring weapons into the scene. You'd better act according to our rules, or you'll lose all your previous achievements if you can't enter the auction site at that time. "

"What about cell phones?" Gu mingchuang asked, "can't I carry a mobile phone?"

"Of course you can take your mobile phone with you," Li Shuzhen replied. "If you don't take your mobile phone, how can you contact your domestic policy makers about the price?"

In fact, we have no one to contact, because Laozi is not interested in that bullshit HZY... Gu mingchuang smiles and asks, "are you not afraid that Americans will lock the auction site according to the GPS positioning system on their mobile phones, and then attack you in a large scale?"

"Ha ha," Li Shuzhen sneered, "of course they will lock our position, but they don't dare to mess around, because the result of doing so is that the whole auction site will" bang "... And our people will naturally retreat from the waterway that has been prepared for a long time."

Chu Yang nodded: "Oh, I see. You set up bombs at the auction site. If anything happens, you will blow up the site. It seems that you have made money this time."

"Ha ha, of course, otherwise how could our boss gather you here? Well, good luck to both gentlemen. I'll see you later. " Li Shuzhen smiles, then turns and walks away.

Gu mingchuang looks at Li Shuzhen walking towards the sea and says, "don't carry weapons... In this case, guns don't want to go in, but I don't believe that people who go in don't carry cold weapons. It seems that tonight will be a cruel close combat. Well, that's good, so as not to hurt our own people with bullets flying around. "

After pondering for a moment, Chu Yang said, "Lao Ba, we'd better change our clothes so that we can swim back after the auction. Well, twelve nautical miles of water must have to struggle for a long time. "

"OK, I think so, too." Gu mingchuang rings his fingers and leaves the billboard with Chu Yang

Just after Chu Yang and Gu mingchuang left the billboard, a man and two women came over.

The lazy girl was just Chai Murong who was encouraged by Tian Ke to attend the dragon boat race.

Tian Ke and Ling Xing are right behind her.

"Murong, the dragon boat race will start in an hour and a half. Are you interested in participating in the race?"

Looking at the temporary Dragon Boat Race organizing committee not far ahead, Tian Ke turned to Chai Murong who looked a little better and said, "I think it's OK to take part in this kind of popular race to relax the mental pressure. Look, there are still teenagers signing up."
