Chapter 910 - 848: Espresso Martini
Su Island is not considered a traditional tourist island, its industries are weak, and its pillar industries are mainly based on the primary sector. Yet unlike Suzhou, it has an airport.
From Jiang Fuzhen, a familiar shipping company booked a Bombardier 300; an early flight application was made, allowing departure from Qinghe City Airport near Ningtai County. In less than two hours, the plane could land on Su Island.
The 9-seater plane carried Jiang Yuan, his son from Jiang Fuzhen, Uncle Qiang, and two half-grown Dobermans, making the whole flight very relaxed.
After disembarking by the steps of the plane, a Coaster was seen awaiting them, along with a police car parked alongside.
"Captain Jiang, right? It really is Captain Jiang!" A police officer, in his early forties, came out of the police car and laughed while shaking hands with Jiang Yuan and others. "I’m the station chief here at the airport, Kong Xueping. I saw on the VVIP list there was a ’Jiang Yuan’ from Ningtai County, Shannan Province, and I wondered if it might be you."
Uncle Qiang, holding the two dogs, got into the Coaster with Jiang Fuzhen first, whispering, "Is Jiang Yuan really that famous now?"
"These kind of detectives who solve cases, they’re like breeding bulls, the most expensive one sells for much more than the others," laughed Jiang Fuzhen.
"The way you put it does make sense. He’s earned quite a few first-class and second-class merits, not just from one case. But..." Uncle Qiang frowned, "Is saying ’breeding bulls’ a bit inappropriate?"
"Breeding horses doesn’t sound nice either... but with names like the great and little Dumas, it’s hard to say."
"Breeding dogs? That sounds like an insult."
