Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.
Chapter 1623 Travel is not easy
Chapter 1623 Travel is not easy
Han Li ignored Zhong Chudan's childish behavior, while Zhong Chuhong turned a blind eye to her younger sister's antics, which made her both angry and helpless. She had no choice but to turn the topic to her older sister.
Chung Chu-hung thought about it and said that those islands were all nice. If she had time, or if her family had a yacht, it would be good to visit them all.
However, since they don't have that now, they need to consider the most practical issues during this trip.
Because they planned to spend several days on the island, not just go and come back on the same day.
Therefore, they must bring camping tents, rest mats, sunshades, food, drinks, alcohol, and all the necessary items.
If they plan to have a bonfire or barbecue at night, they need to bring wood, charcoal, and a barbecue grill. If any of these items are missing, their picnic will turn into a nightmare.
The most important of these supplies is fresh water. With such high temperatures in Hong Kong right now, we can't do without fresh water.
When people leave the cool air-conditioned rooms and go to the hot outdoors, their water intake will increase dramatically. After swimming in the sea, they also need to rinse off, all of which require fresh water.
If we calculate based on the initial plan of a three-day trip, the amount of fresh water needed for the three of them for daily life and washing over those three days would be quite large.
Moreover, most of those islands are places without docks or where boats have difficulty docking. They themselves may have to disembark in shallow waters and wade through the water to reach the island.
Therefore, it's unrealistic for the three of them to bring all the fresh water they need when they go to the island.
To make everyone's first trip more enjoyable, Cherie Chung plans to choose Chi Chau Island as the destination.
The natural spring water on the island allows them to carry much less fresh water. If they can replace that portion of their load with other supplies, everyone can enjoy their trip more comfortably and pleasantly.
Once the destinations are decided, the next step is to compile a list of items needed for the trip.
As for the specific travel time, Han Li said that he had been in the United States for so long and had a lot of work to do, so it would take him about two to three days to finish everything.
Chung Chor-hung said that she needed to purchase supplies, contact boats, and most importantly, call the weather bureau to check the recent weather conditions and whether it was suitable for going out to sea.
Hong Kong: The first department related to the weather was the Hong Kong Observatory, located in Knutsford, but at that time it could only broadcast the time to the public through loudspeakers.
Once the radio communication became widespread, the observatory used radios on various ships to provide weather forecasts to vessels in the surrounding waters.
The specific operation is as follows: When some ships encounter wind and rain in the waters south of Hong Kong, they inform the Hong Kong Observatory via radio. The Observatory will then notify all ships in the area equipped with radios.
Based on this situation, Hong Kong Radio also broadcast weather forecasts to the public.
As a result of its localized nature and the pranks it caused, many jokes were made at the time, and the observatory and radio station were often scolded by citizens and fishermen.
In 59, Hong Kong built its first weather radar.
In 73, the first computer-based weather forecasting system was deployed.
After several years of operation, around the late 80s or early 81, Hong Kong established its first automatic weather station and set up a paid telephone weather service.
If you want to know the recent weather, whether it's suitable for going out to sea or traveling, just make a call that's not too expensive, but definitely not cheap either.
Of course, the accuracy of this weather forecast is quite poor. For ordinary people, it doesn't really matter; apart from typhoons, other weather conditions don't significantly impact their lives. Young fishermen often treat this call as just a general reference and a source of psychological comfort, while experienced fishermen trust their own judgment more.
Getting back to the main point, after finishing their meal and tidying up the housework, the two sisters huddled together to discuss what they needed to bring and where to buy it, while Han Li took his teacup and went to the terrace.
After playing with his pet for a while, Han Li looked at the lights of the ships in Victoria Harbour ahead and thought to himself.
"If I have time, I should learn how to drive a yacht. After I get a license, I don't know whether I'll buy a yacht, go deep-sea fishing, or take a beautiful woman out to sea to enjoy the waves."
At least next time I want to go out to sea, I won't have to worry about so many trivial things.
Just rent a yacht, load up with the necessary supplies, and set off. Then you can do whatever you want and come back whenever you want.
Although Han Li had put this matter on his agenda, he also knew that he probably wouldn't be able to do it in the near future.
For Han Li and Zhong Chuhong, the situation remained unchanged. For Zhong Chudan, it was another sleepless night, tossing and turning. However, this time, she was thinking about more things.
The next day, Han Li went to the bank in the morning, opened a new card, and deposited a large sum of money into the account of Agatsuma Co., Ltd.
Next, Han Li met with Attorney Jin and opened a securities account at the stock exchange in the name of Hongguang Company. The funds in the account were then linked to the new bank card.
Afterwards, Han Li explained some things to Attorney Jin and casually made a very generous promise, which left the other party speechless with excitement and a flushed face. Only after promising that he would not disappoint his benefactor did Han Li leave.
Regarding the short selling of Jia Ning Group's stock, Han Li gave Attorney Jin specific targets, general directions, and some points to note.
The rest is left to Attorney Jin to oversee. The specifics of how it will operate are handled by the strategist. Han Li only needs to make a phone call or a few times a day to find out.
After leaving, Han Li drove directly to the Universal Real Estate Company in Knutsford Terrace, wanting to see if the big-breasted woman he had played with for two days had arrived.
If Lan Jieying manages to bring the other party over, Han Li wants to experience the pleasure of having the most beautiful woman on Mount Wutai and drinking bubble tea.
If Wen Bixia and Wang Xiaofeng were also there, and if things were arranged well and the atmosphere was right, they might add a demoness and a ghost queen to the scene to liven things up, and he could enjoy four times the happiness.
However, when Han Li arrived this time, the narrow streets of Knosfodda were full of parked cars, and it took him a while to find an empty space.
This meant that Han Li had to walk for most of the street after parking his car before finally arriving at the real estate company. It was just then that the housewives finished their chat and were rushing home to cook.
Han Li didn't rush inside. He just stood to the side and watched the housewives carrying different ingredients, chatting and laughing. Some of them hadn't finished chatting and were reluctant to leave.
Along with these housewives, the company accountant Kang Cuilan also left, because she also needed to go back at this time to prepare lunch for her husband and children.
Kang Cuilan knew that her boss didn't like being watched, so when she saw Han Li, she didn't greet him directly, but instead walked over and greeted him quietly.
The two had just met two days ago. Han Li already knew about the company's situation, and it wasn't appropriate to ask her about the big-breasted woman, so he chatted with Kang Cuilan briefly before letting her leave.
When Han Li pushed open the company door, the first person he saw was Lan Jieying, who was tidying up the teacups that the housewives had just drunk from.
There was another person with their head down, mopping the floor. Just by looking at their side profile and the turbulent, earth-shaking motion they created while mopping, Han Li knew it was the exquisite "Ru ware" he had once played with for two days.
