after breakfast.

The deck of the giant ship was full of people again.

Let the air blow.

Take a picture.

That's right.

Photograph!

After the federal identity card system was comprehensively updated, a new business began to emerge—photographing. Almost every small town has a photo studio.

Personal camera or something, it touches not launched.

The photography on board belongs to the business of the cruise ship itself.

"Stand still!"

"Smile, yes, that's it." There was a click.

"alright!"

"..."

Take care.

Wash out.

The speed is very fast, but the price is not cheap. This is a value-added service, which is not included in the ticket, but it is affordable for a trip.

Feng Changsheng also took a few photos, it was not a waste of time.

Near noon, the weather was extremely hot, so we had to go back to the cabin.

call!

The cold wind coming from the vent is very comfortable.

at this time.

In Los Angeles, winter has not yet passed, but in the southern waters, it is summer. I heard that the Qingping Islands are like spring all year round, so I can't help but look forward to it.

Looking at the slightly turbulent sea outside the window, blowing the air conditioner, it's cool!

. . .

at dusk.

It's still hot.

but.

But the deck was lively again.

"Ironclad!"

"so big!"

"As fast as a cruise ship, the First Fleet!"

"..."

Looking at the fleets slowly passing by in the distance, they couldn't help but get excited. The changes in the Federation are changing with each passing day, which is naturally reflected in the equipment.

Just over a month ago, Federal Radio announced:

---Federal First Fleet, refit is complete!

Since then.

Among the ships in service of the Federation, there are no more wooden sailboats, but all replaced by ironclad ships, made of steel, farewell to wind drive, and using mechanical force.

Speed... super fast!

compare with.

The sailing boats of the past were far more than turtle speed.

Even if you don't fight, you can win just by bumping.

What's more.

The weapons on board are not decorations, they are already invincible in this sea area.

pirate?

It was wiped out long ago.

and.

Even if there are pirates, it is no longer possible to threaten the federal fleet, because ironclad ships are military equipment, and some civilian ships are still made of wood.

Such as coastal fishing.

Small wooden sails.

Even with a small engine, it still has no deterrent effect.

The federation holds the source of technology, that is, it holds everything.

The headquarters of the First Fleet is on the outer island of the former Nanyu Navy, and it has several maritime bases under its jurisdiction. Qingping Base is one of them, and this is where the Federation Fleet can be seen.

On the blue sea.

Ironclad giant ships lined up.

mighty!

Domineering!

"Can I take a picture?" Someone had a whim and wanted to take a picture with this as the background.

"No!" The staff member holding the camera shook his head vigorously.

"Why?"

"Photography of important federal military facilities and equipment is strictly prohibited."

"..."

When they heard this, everyone trembled. That's right, this is the military equipment of the Federation. Although there are no enemies, the secrecy must be kept as usual.

So, I had to give up the idea.

Looking into the distance, I want to take a few more glances, so that I can blow it when I go back.

. . .

And in the distance.

on the ship.

The soldiers of the Federation Fleet are also a little excited. Among the various branches of the Federation, the one that is most looking forward to the equipment update is the Federation Fleet.

Land equipment, that's all.

armor.

weapon.

Very simple.

But the equipment at sea is complicated. It appeared when the fleet attacked the Nanyu Navy. It is precisely because I have seen it that I have been looking forward to the iron-clad ship.

Wait and wait.

More than two years.

It was almost three years since the federation was established before they waited for the installation.

However, after it was actually installed, they realized that the reason why the Federation did not install it in the first place was not because it was difficult to build, nor was it a lack of steel.

It's because the operation is really more complicated than a sailboat.

arms.

equipment.

It takes at least a year to train a qualified soldier just by operating these two items.

You have to master a lot of theoretical knowledge and practice before you can officially take up the job. After more than two years of theoretical study, everyone finally understands its importance.

Now.

Although it is still running in, everyone can sail smoothly in Shanghai.

With such an inexhaustible power, the blue ocean, like a backyard, comes freely.

. . .

Time gradually came to night.

"arrive!"

"This is Qingping Island? It's really big!"

"Of course, this is the location of Qingping Prefecture."

"I heard that there were many pirates entrenched in the past, and they were all sacrificed by the predecessor of the Federation Fleet."

"...."

while chatting.

While disembarking from the boat, I was guided by a special person to the seaside resort hotel not far away. There is a row of beautiful but different inns, which are brightly illuminated by lights.

"Please show your ID."

"..."

"Here is your card, on the right side of the third floor."

"..."

Come to the inn, register, and get the key card.

Feng Changsheng came to the room he had reserved, a super sea view room. Although it was night, the lights on the beach were as bright as day.

Slightly rippling sea surface, you can see the clear water.

Originally there were few people.

Plus governance.

The quality of the sea water here is nothing to say, it is clear and translucent.

This night will pass quickly.

the next day.

The inn became lively early in the morning, and the flavor was different from the breakfast on the ship. Some things were said to be unique to the island and could not be eaten anywhere else.

There are many service staff in the inn.

Dress neatly.

smiling.

After the completion of Qingping City, the higher-ups began to build these inns around. At first, I still didn't understand why an inn was built on an island far from the land.

Housing in the city should be adequate.

Later I found out why.

Federation intends to create the concept of Qingping tourist area.

Find a new livelihood for everyone on the island.

now.

It has already started to be put into operation. Compared with the past, it is mainly farming. Everyone has another choice. Seeing that the Federation is getting better and better, and the income of the people has increased.

Come to think of it, it will definitely be more lively here in the future.

Inside Qingping City.

Many merchants are also smiling, very happy.

As the number of tourists increases, so does the income.

but.

But no one dared to kill customers or something.

Clear price.

Sufficient.

This is the basic business ethics. The Federation has always advocated honest business operations. In the past, some merchants didn't care about it at all, because the binding force was really small.

It's different now.

Commonwealth.

The number of shops is limited, except for a very small part that is deducted from the original city shop owners.

Each of the rest is very precious, only rented and not sold, accounting for more than 90%.

If it is disqualified because of dishonest management, it will be miserable. The shops in the Federation are in short supply, and there are almost no sublets. Once they are taken back, they will be caught blind.

to another city?

hehe!

dream.

For one thing, it is the same in other places, there are no redundant shops.

Second, once on the gray list, no place will grant qualifications.

Federation as one, information synchronization.

There is no such thing as going to the next place if you can't get stuck here. Therefore, every merchant cherishes his integrity very much.

Short of catties or two?

Random price tag?

Shoddy?

Don't even dare!

As long as it appears once, the evidence is conclusive.

In this life, the merchant probably has no chance to do business.

However, although harsh.

But there is one thing that makes the merchants have no complaints. The access system of the federal merchants directly suppresses the competition in the entire market to a certain extent.

It won't be that one business is good, and three or five companies suddenly appear around to compete and play price wars.

This does not exist in the Federation.

To a certain extent, it protects the interests of the merchants, so that everyone can have a relatively stable income without having to use their brains. This is the case. If the merchants act recklessly, they are completely unworthy of sympathy.
