Coconut Island isn't large; it takes about half an hour to walk around.

The houses on the island have brown pitched roofs, mostly one or two-story resort villas with gardens and swimming pools, surrounded by coconut trees.

Due to the time difference, it was just noon local time.

The sun hung high in the sky, making the sea, beaches, trees, and flowers appear several shades brighter than usual, with a tropical atmosphere washing over everything.

They went to drop off their luggage, and on the way, they saw many foreigners on vacation, as well as quite a few locals.

After checking into the small building where many important figures were said to have stayed, Su Yehao suddenly realized, upon seeing the conventional decor, that there didn't seem to be any beautiful water houses here. He hadn't seen them in photos of other islands either.

After asking Miss Tabu, he understood that Europeans didn't like houses built on the sea, finding the sound of the waves too noisy and the soundproofing inferior to that of houses on the sand.

Therefore, hotels like the Hilton Maldives, which opened last year, built water houses next to the islands, but Coconut Island hadn't followed suit. The main reason was that the previous major shareholders didn't think it was necessary, and there were already enough rooms. In recent years, many new hotels had opened, diverting the flow of tourists.

Su Yehao nodded after hearing this.

Although he had bought Global Resort Hotels Group, he didn't actually know much about this place.

Thinking of giving some suggestions for rectification after experiencing it, and arranging for a team to be responsible for the subsequent upgrades and renovations, he was still curious at this moment and just wanted to take a walk by the sea first.

The little girl was still in a state of excitement, not yet recovered from the huge surprise.

At this moment, she rummaged through her luggage for her swimsuit and asked, "Can you see small fish and coral in the sea here? Brother Hao, let's go snorkeling. I bought a special set of equipment!"

Miss Tabu glanced at the two small pieces of cloth in Nangong Tian's hand, so light that they probably didn't weigh thirty grams, and immediately reminded her:

"The atmosphere in the Maldives is relatively conservative. Local regulations don't allow wearing such clothes. Many tourists don't understand the rules when they first arrive, and if they don't listen to advice, they may even be taken away by the police and fined. You can add a skirt outside the swimsuit. I'll get you two in a moment."

"Huh? Can't even wear a bikini?" It was Su Yehao who asked, his tone full of disappointment, as he had originally planned to feast his eyes.

Tabu looked at him, shook her head, and smiled, "There's no problem on other islands, mainly Malé and Hulhumalé. As for Coconut Island, it's too close to Malé Island, and locals with conservative views often come here for vacation, so it's best to be careful, as it's easy to get into unnecessary trouble."

After hearing these words,

Su Yehao understood. Coconut Island was, after all, a state guesthouse of the Maldives, and often undertook important activities. The local customs were similar to those in the Middle East. Men could also marry four wives. Allowing swimwear on private islands was already a compromise between economics and customs, turning a blind eye to it.

It was the first time he had heard of the term "Hulhumalé."

After asking Miss Tabu again, Su Yehao learned that the airport he had just arrived at was in Hulhumalé, while the real Malé was next to it. Both belonged to local residential areas, and one should never wear swimwear with too little fabric on the streets.

The ancestors had taught since ancient times to "When in Rome, do as the Romans do."

Wearing a little more on Coconut Island was a minor matter. According to Tabu, tourists had indeed caused a lot of trouble and even caused Coconut Island Resort to be fined several times.

It was easy to guess that it was mostly European and American tourists who were full of talk about freedom, arrogant and self-righteous, and treated local customs as a joke, making them difficult to manage.

Anticipating that the hotel must already have experience, Su Yehao was too lazy to worry...

When Miss Tabu brought two clothes similar to nightgowns, the little girl and Jiang Yu each put them on over their swimsuits.

Su Yehao accompanied them, leaving the suite and passing through the coconut grove, heading towards the beach first.

The arranged house was a small villa with a garden in front and a private swimming pool surrounded by fences and shrubs in the backyard.

There were three rooms on the second floor, while the first floor had a spacious living room, study, and conference room. It was indeed different from other hotels, roughly equivalent to the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse of the Maldives.

Being able to stay with Jiang Yu at night saved Su Yehao a lot of trouble.

In addition,

Su Yehao also took it as a joke, taking the opportunity to tell the little girl about the local news that one could marry several wives, as a way to give her a heads-up.

Jiang Yu understood and her expression turned awkward instantly.

As for the little girl, she only took it as a joke, stepping barefoot on the white, soft sand, and teasing him with a smile, saying that he should quickly immigrate to the Maldives so he could get his wish and enjoy the blessings of having multiple wives.

The weather was a bit hot, and it felt particularly comfortable to step barefoot in the seawater, letting the waves lap against their calves.

However, the timing wasn't right. The little girl, worried about getting tanned, quickly pulled Jiang Yu to rest on a beach chair under the shade of a thatched pavilion in the coconut grove.

A dozen meters away, there was indeed a white couple, both wearing swimsuits, walking and chatting.

As the boss, his perspective on the problem was naturally different.

This kind of thing...

Managing it would offend guests and easily damage Coconut Island's reputation.

But if you didn't manage it, it would easily cause the hotel to be fined. If someone really came ashore and took the tourists away to pay fines, it would also damage Coconut Island's reputation.

Considering that there would be more and more island resorts in the Maldives in the future, and the number of tourists would also increase, Su Yehao thought that Coconut Island's status might decline. He could just make the excuse that they were fully booked and not accept certain local activities, and they would probably soon shed the title of state guesthouse.

What he wanted was for tourists to enjoy their vacation comfortably after landing on the island. Too many restrictions were not a good thing.

If other islands were relaxed, but only Coconut Island was being watched, wouldn't that be a loss of income for no reason? In the future, when tourists searched online, they would definitely know that they couldn't wear bikinis here, and both male and female tourists would probably have opinions, so it would be strange if business was good.

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and then he began to consider that the hotel facilities were indeed starting to get old, wondering if he should invest some money to reverse the decline.

Considering the huge group of tourists in the mainland hasn't started paying attention to the Maldives yet, it doesn't seem to matter if he invests later.

It's best to wait until he withdraws the money from Nasdaq, as he's a little tight on hand at the moment...

Nangong Tian held a coconut at this time and looked at Su Yehao, asking, "Brother Hao, are you really planning to give me this island? This gift is a bit too exaggerated, it's so far from home."

"It's not just this one, but also the other islands. When the time comes, I'll transfer the company's shares to your name, and you can just find someone to keep an eye on things. You don't need to be here all the time."

Su Yehao said leisurely and lazily, lying down and continuing, "If you really can't, you can also hand it over to my hotel management team to take care of it. In the future, when you tell others, you'll be the woman who owns five islands in the Maldives. Am I good to you?"

"Wow! It sounds so amazing, I just love Brother Hao to death."

After the little girl finished speaking,

Jiang Yu sat next to her, her mouth twitching for a while.

Before, when Su Yehao said he was going to give her a part, Jiang Yu didn't feel anything at the time. It was only after actually coming to the Maldives and seeing it that she clearly realized the preciousness of this gift. One can only say that rich people really know how to play, giving away five resort islands at once. She was more or less a little envious...
