Chapter 1154
"I say, why is there a road here?"
He didn't cut this road with a machete.
Although there were weeds on the ground and a few small shrubs sprouting from the middle, the sparse vegetation on this road was clearly different from the lush vegetation on the edge.
Jiang Han looked at the large and small stones on the road. It was obvious that the road had been hardened. However, it was hard to see without careful observation because of the passage of time.
This road is located some distance away from the house of the young master of the Qian family.
In other words, this road has nothing to do with the young master Qian's house.
How did this road appear on such a deserted island?
Jiang Han used a branch to clear away the weeds on the road, and while walking he distinguished the traces left on the road.
"Jiang Han, where are you going?" Cai Chengyan was startled when he saw a squirrel jumping out from the side.
"do not know."
Cai Chengyan: “…”
Jiang Han walked up the road and then came to under a big rock.
"This is..." Cai Chengyan stared with wide eyes. He didn't expect that there would be such a thing on this deserted island.
"It's the Dragon King Shrine."
This big stone is concave in the middle, and in the concave part of the stone, someone used this big stone to carve a shrine to the Dragon King.
Jiang Han had seen many shrines, usually made of stone or wood, with a statue of a deity placed inside.
This one is carved from stone.
The shrine, the Dragon King statue, and this big stone are all integrated.
The patterns on the shrine are carved very delicately, and even the image of the Dragon King is lifelike.
Jiang Han didn't understand these things, so he called Xin Gaoyang over directly.
Xin Gaoyang marveled at the object. "This shape is rare. If I'm not mistaken, this should be from the late Ming Dynasty. This road should also have been built during that period."
Jiang Han was a little confused. "Are you saying that during the Ming Dynasty, this island was inhabited?"
"That's not the case. The people here believe in various gods. The most worshipped are the Dragon Father and Dragon Mother and Guanyin. If I'm not mistaken, a feng shui master at the time must have thought this was a good place for feng shui and set up a shrine here. I guess passing fishermen would come to the island to worship."
Jiang Han felt something was wrong. "If there were really a lot of fishermen coming to worship, this island would definitely have a decent dock."
Even though the pier has been damaged over time, some remains can still be seen.
They had been to the island several times and had not seen any trace of the dock.
Xin Gaoyang thought for a moment and said, "You're right. The person who carved this shrine didn't want anyone to know it existed. It seems it was built by a certain family for the sake of their prosperity. It was probably built by a fishing tycoon at the time. This shrine was probably only used for sacrifices by people from that family. If that family fell, no one would come here to offer sacrifices."
Jiang Han nodded, "Maybe that's true."
Jiang Han took a few photos. No matter what, if he found such a place on his island, he would definitely report it.
Jiang Han reported it directly to Secretary Zhao.
Secretary Zhao was also puzzled. It was just a deserted island. How could there be such a thing on a deserted island?
Secretary Zhao: People from relevant departments will come to inspect the site before the New Year.
[Jiang Han: It won't affect my development, right?]
Secretary Zhao: Probably not. This thing is quite small. The most likely scenario is that they're enclosing it for protection.
Jiang Han felt relieved after hearing what Secretary Zhao said.
Perhaps the statue of the Dragon King in the shrine was too lifelike. Jiang Han thought about it and took incense and candles from the boat.
He also found all the fruits he could find on the boat and placed them in front of the shrine.
Jiang Han bowed again and again to the Dragon King in the shrine.
Cai Chengyan was confused. Seeing Xin Gaoyang beside him already bowing like Jiang Han, he followed suit.
Jiang Han muttered to himself, "Lord Dragon, you must protect me, my ship, and the brothers on board so that they are all safe and sound."
He didn't ask for more fish. He already had the system with him, so instead of asking the Dragon King to let him catch more fish, it would be more practical to motivate himself and make two more trips to the sea.
Jiang Han looked at Xin Gaoyang and Cai Chengyan, "Don't tell anyone about our discovery of the shrine when we get back."
Jiang Han completely trusts Zhang Haidai and the others.
But there are other people on the island now, and there are so many people around. If something happens, it will be really hard to say.
"I'm not familiar with them." Cai Chengyan never thought of telling this to anyone.
Xin Gaoyang saw Jiang Han looking at him and quickly said, "I won't tell you either."
Although he is sometimes unreliable, nothing goes wrong with serious matters.
Jiang Han felt relieved when he heard them say this.
Jiang Han received a call from Uncle Lao Lai.
"Akan, there are a lot of tourists on the island right now. As soon as our stall closed, people came to ask about it. Do you want to sublet it?"
Jiang Han has been busy lately and has put the stall issue aside.
With so many tourists, it would be a waste to leave such a good prime stall empty.
"What does the person who is looking for you do?" As long as he doesn't sell barbecue, it's not a big problem.
"I asked, and they make handmade ice cream and handmade chocolate. It seems they make handmade ice cream when the weather is hot, and handmade chocolate when the weather cools down."
"Okay then. If he wants to rent it, I'll give him the market price. Once it's confirmed, I'll send him the electronic contract."
Jiang Han spent a lot of money to get this stall, but Jiang Han didn't intend to make money from the stall fee.
So I only get a normal market price when I sublet it.
"Okay, let me ask."
Uncle Lai hung up the phone, and within two minutes he called back. "When the other party heard you were willing to rent, he was so happy he couldn't contain himself. He asked me when I could give him the contract. He was worried that such a good stall would be snatched away by someone else."
