"Old Qiao, where is your son? Why didn't he see him twice?" Chen Kangjie took a sip of tea and asked casually.

"He went to work at 8:30 in the morning."

"Well, is there any place to work on the island?" Chen Kangjie understood and was a little confused.

"Some, some, the income is pretty good, 20% higher than before," Boss Qiao said with a flashing look.

"Oh, I actually got a salary increase. Where can I go to work? The salary is so good. I increased my salary by 20% in such a short time."

"This,,,,,,,, let's not talk about this, let's not talk about this anymore." Boss Qiao seemed much more cautious, kept looking at the people behind Chen Kangjie, and finally waved his hand and refused.

Chen Kangjie looks quite kind, but Xiong Ziqiang and others behind him are not exactly like this. They are all shy and bear-backs. Just looking at the biceps on their arms, you will know that they are not ordinary people. Moreover, this time Chen Kangjie has a real stranger, Ouyang Zhenhua.

"Uncle Qiao, is there anything you can't say? You can't do anything bad for your son, right?" Chen Kangjie asked again tentatively.

"No, those people think it's not easy to mess with at first glance, but when they get along, they are very kind, how could they be bad people?" Boss Qiao refuted a little excitedly.

"Haha, it's for those soldiers." Chen Kangjie said with a hearty smile.

Boss Qiao's first reaction was to glance outside, as if someone would stare at this place.

There are indeed people outside staring at this place, but those people don’t show it. They are just like drinking herbal tea under a big tree diagonally opposite when patrolling, and there is nothing special.

"Xiao Chen, you can't say anything, I didn't tell you anything. You are outsiders and don't understand the rules here. You are free from everything here. You can't talk about those who are in the army, especially those who are strangers. I advise you not to inquire about it on the island." Boss Qiao lowered his voice and said cautiously, like an underground worker.

"Oh, it's actually like this. If not, what will happen? Please give me some advice," Chen Kangjie pressed down his eyebrows, bent down, and asked in a low voice.

"I think you are an acquaintance and I will tell you that if you are an outsider inquiring, you will be in jail. There is a new prison on the island. If we talk nonsense, not only will all our property be confiscated, but even the worst will be shot, and at least the least will be spent in the prison." Boss Qiao said in a cold tone.

"Oh, then you have to perform well." Chen Kangjie asked again.

"If you perform well, you will get a reward of at least 20,000 US dollars by the end of the year."

Chen Kangjie made a sudden realization and no longer asked any questions, but lowered his head to drink tea. This kind of measure of both kindness and power is really useful to ordinary people. Everyone was tied to a rope.

"Hey, by the way, the island is no longer open to tourism. How did you come?" After hesitating for a while, Boss Qiao instead asked Chen Kangjie and the others about coming.

"Ah, oh, hehe, we came by plane," Chen Kangjie replied with a smile.

"I heard that a plane landed at the airport this morning. Could it be that you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

"Haha, that's right, they invited it," Chen Kangjie replied easily with an interesting feeling.

Boss Qiao immediately stood up, looking very nervous, pointed at Xiong Ziqiang and the others and said, "You can testify, but I didn't say anything, I didn't reveal anything."

"Uncle Qiao, there is no need to do this. No one says you have leaked anything. Haha, please sit down, sit down." Chen Kangjie waved to Boss Qiao.

After half of Boss Qiao's butt sat down next to the wooden chair, Chen Kangjie comforted, "Your confidentiality work is still very good. In fact, we just chat casually, just treat it as reminiscing the past."

After knowing that Chen Kangjie was with those soldiers, Boss Qiao seemed a little uneasy, not as casual as before, and his conversation was closed by him.

Chen Kangjie asked a few more questions, but Boss Qiao stammered and had no answers. She sat together speechlessly for a while. Chen Kangjie felt that there was no meaning anymore, so he stood up and said goodbye.

He later learned that in order to keep confidential work, Zheng Jun and the others also stipulated that the residents on the island should not be able to leave the island at the same time. This is to leave at least one hostage in disguise. Although Chen Kangjie felt that this was a bit cruel and over, he had to be sure that this was the best deterrent method. As an isolated island of overseas garrisons, it is not wrong to be careful.

Chen Kangjie and his friends went to the beach for a walk, and after returning to the military camp at noon for lunch, they got to the airport to inspect the garrison on the island.

The island has a lot of food in Shanghai, but vegetables seem a bit scarce. However, this is not a problem for those soldiers who have come from the arduous domestic environment. They have built four vegetable greenhouses on the island, but they are not yet mature. After waiting for a month, there will be at least twelve vegetables on the island, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, green vegetables, cabbage, eggplant, etc.

Today's military parade has both similarities and great differences from the military parades I usually see on TV.

The same part is that there are uniform demarcations. The difference is that the focus of the troops on the island is on combat, so everything has to start from actual combat, so they have also prepared a unique and close acting.

When Chen Kangjie drove to the airport with Ouyang Zhenhua and Zheng Jun, all the soldiers were ready in high spirits except for the necessary duty staff.

The reviewing stand is imitated by the head of state to review the guard of honor of the three armies. It is a 20-centimeter wooden platform with a two-square-meter high microphone in front, and an umbrella is set up in the back. This is where Chen Kangjie stands. That umbrella prevents Chen Kangjie from being exposed to the scorching sun in the Indian Ocean.

Ouyang Zhenhua and the others also have a small viewing platform, which is a form that imitates Chen Kangjie's parade platform, but the body is long, ten meters long, slightly behind Chen Kangjie, and Ouyang Zhenhua and Xiong Ziqiang and others are all here.

"Hello comrades", "Hello comrades", "Thank you for your hard work", "Serve the people", Chen Kangjie, the attribution for this type of military parade, was familiar with Chen Kangjie, but at first he felt it was inappropriate because everyone did not have a political party, so on the way to the airport, Chen Kangjie also discussed this issue with Zheng Jun.

Zheng Jun's words made Chen Kangjie relieve his concerns.

"Although we don't have a regime and are not the same party, we have the same goals. Comrades, are they just like-minded? As long as they are like-minded, they are comrades. There is nothing wrong with this," said Zheng Junru.

After Zheng Jun said that, Chen Kangjie accepted the title of comrade and leader, but in the last sentence, Chen Kangjie insisted on changing it. He felt that using "serving the motherland" was more appropriate.

In fact, there is no fundamental difference between serving the motherland and serving the people, but there is a slight difference in meaning. The scope of the people is narrower, but the specificity is not as specific as that of the motherland. The motherland seems abstract, but in fact it refers to the land and everyone on it. It is a great combination. Therefore, Chen Kangjie believes that "serving the country" and "serving the country" are more appropriate. This may harm the interests of some "people", but starting from the entire nation is of great benefit.

After Chen Kangjie stood in the scorching sun for three minutes, Zheng Jun took a convertible jeep from a distance to Chen Kangjie.

When the car stopped, Zheng Jun held the rod with his left hand and gave a standard military salute with his right hand.

"Report to the commander, the officers and soldiers stationed in Christmas Island have been lined up. Please review it." Zheng Jun's car did not have a microphone, but his loud voice was enough to make Chen Kangjie and the others hear it clearly.

"Start", Chen Kangjie spoke out two words with confidence.

The passage of the car patrol was cut off and the parade was directly performed.

Zheng Jun took the car far away. After a while, under his leadership, about 500 people formed different teams and walked towards Chen Kangjie in a strong part.

Seeing the team, whose lineup was greatly reduced but not inferior to the National Day parade, slowly approached in front of him, Chen Kangjie was a little excited. Not long ago, he walked across the rostrum of the school playground in the same way as he was reviewed by the school leaders. Not long after, he inspected these high-spirited professional soldiers here.

"Hello, comrades", Chen Kangjie was still a little nervous when he shouted the sentence at the beginning. After all, this is very unusual. If it were in ancient times, it might have been the crime of rebellion.

"Hello, the chief," the soldiers replied loudly.

"Thank you for your hard work, comrades." After Chen Kangjie shouted the first sentence, it was relatively easy afterwards. Anyway, he had already made the best efforts.

"Serve the motherland", when the soldiers responded to this sentence, they were obviously a little awkward and lacked momentum. Chen Kangjie even heard someone shouting "Serve the people". Although it was a mess mixed with the team's voice, Chen Kangjie, who had a very keen hearing, still captured it.

It’s no wonder they have developed. This is a habit that has been developed over the years. As a former soldier of the Republic, it is a conditioned reflex when he heard "comrades have worked hard" and shouted "serving the people". It is already rare for most people to correct it in such a short time.

When the team came to a pre-demarcated white line five meters to Chen Kangjie's left, Zheng Jun raised the command knife in his hand and shouted "Walk in a straight line".

Under Zheng Jun's leadership, teams of soldiers raised their steps when they passed through this line, and the guns in their hands were straight up. When their steps fell, the cement floor stomped, crisp and heavy. Each sound was like a drum hitting into Chen Kangjie's heart, bringing him excitement and excitement.
