Chapter 1111 The Best Labor
Because he wanted to go to Anguo as soon as possible, classmate Le stayed overnight near a famous mining town near the sea in the southern desert of Nami. He grabbed Yan Shuai’s strong man and helped him dig succulents for the whole night. The next day At noon, we took a small plane to go deep into the inner grassland and stayed overnight, and returned to the capital of Nano on the 12th.
That day was Monday. When he returned to the capital of Namibia, Young Master Yan accompanied Little Loli to the Anguo Embassy to get a visa. He also returned the guns borrowed from the Great Celestial Empire's embassy in Namibia.
There is only a boundary river between Nami and Anguo, and they are connected by airplanes and roads. Many trades between Great China and Anguo use Nami as a transit point and rely on roads to circulate.
The two countries are very close to each other. The famous Red Clay Man tribe has the same origin and they all live on both sides of the Kunene River, the boundary river. There are road entry checkpoints on the border between the two countries.
Young Master Yan and his classmates took a bus to Angola on the morning of the 13th. The cross-border tourist bus underwent entry and exit inspections at the border checkpoints of the two countries. It was not until mid-afternoon that it arrived at the capital of Cunena Province, which is the border between Angola and Namibia. .
Anguo was very prosperous during the colonial era, with abundant food and exports. After independence, there was a civil war that lasted for nearly thirty years. Various infrastructures were damaged to varying degrees. The internal supply of food was insufficient, the economy was in recession, and Anguo suffered from People suffering from civil strife are also eager for peace. Some provinces have been prone to turmoil in recent years, but overall the situation is stable, the economy is developing rapidly, and all industries are full of vitality.
Anguo is rich in natural resources and has a relatively mature tourism industry. It has many national parks and attractions, as well as animal reserves jointly built with several neighboring countries. It is also one of the most famous attractions.
Cunena Province, which is separated by the Nami River, is a province with many red mud people in Anguo. Unfortunately, the tourism company in the capital of Cunena Province is not large in scale and does not have helicopter rental business. Therefore, classmate Le and Yan Shuai started in Cunena. Stop in the capital of Nena Province, then rent a small plane from Namibe, which is on the seaside, and let the plane arrive at the capital of Bian Cunena Province tomorrow.
The capital of Cunei Province is roughly equivalent to the county town of Huaxia. It was already mid-afternoon when Young Master Yan and Little Loli arrived. They went out to wander around for a few times before evening, and quickly returned to the hotel. The public security in Nami was good, and the security in Anguo was still good. What is more worrying is that the people of the Great Celestial Dynasty are often robbed of their residences in Anguo's engineering projects.
When traveling, safety comes first. The embassy has reminded him that Young Master Yan also puts safety first. The hotel's facilities are average. It is said to be a star hotel, which is equivalent to ordinary hotels in domestic towns. He is worried that something illegal might happen in the middle of the night. Molecule, he served as the night watchman for the little Lolita for another night.
At around nine o'clock in the morning on the 14th, a helicopter dispatched from Namibe City in northwest Anguo arrived. The long-awaited students Yan and Le met with the helicopter on the outskirts of the city and took the opportunity to fly to the northwest coastal desert where Welwitschia grows.
Most of Cunei Province is a plateau, and the terrain gradually becomes lower from east to west, so water flows from the river to the west. The rivers in Anguo are contrary to the view of the Great Celestial Dynasty that "big rivers flow eastward." It is easiest for the Celestial Dynasty to People suspect that domestic geography has been learned in vain.
Classmate Le has been to Russia and Serbia and collected a large number of plateau plants, so he doesn’t have much interest in exploring the plateau of Anguo. At least he is not planning to go deep into the plateau to collect plants during this trip.
The helicopter flew over the plateau and basin plains, stopped in a town to refuel and had lunch, and continued flying in the afternoon. At the guest's request, the helicopter flew slower and did not approach the northwest coastline until around four o'clock in the afternoon. of the Namib Desert.
In the plateau area more than 20 kilometers away from the edge of the large desert, Classmate Le and Young Master Yan made their first stop. The small plane went to a town on the desert plain to wait for contact.
The little Loli stopped halfway, and Young Master Yan was the happiest. He followed the little Loli happily with a heart full of joy. He acted as a porter and was responsible for the luggage of the two of them. The little Loli was only responsible for what he saw. Just collect whatever.
In the evening, the two found a place to camp. They spent the next day digging for plants. On the third day, they broke camp and moved forward, walking and stopping on the road. It was not until the 18th that they drove into the desert plain and contacted a small plane to send them to a place with Welwitschia. Set up camp in the desert wasteland where there is water.
It was the first time he entered the desert of Anguo. He didn’t know much about the living areas of the prey. Yan Xing didn’t catch any prey, so he ate the dry food he had brought with him at night. It was just getting dark. He couldn’t bear it anymore and urged Xiao Loli excitedly: “Xiao Luo Li, it's getting dark, let's dig up the Welwitschia quickly and work as fast as possible. Maybe I can dig out two." "You can
pull them down and give two back. It would be good if you can dig out one." Le Yun said directly. Pouring him a basin of cold water, it is an indisputable fact that Yan Xiaolongbao is physically strong, but it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Without an excavator or tools to transport sand, she has to dig manually. How can he dig out a complete Welwitschia? Burning incense.
"Don't lie to others and look down on them. Don't say two. I can dig out three or four. Do you want to make a bet? If I can dig out three or more, you can make me two medicinal meals." Yan Xing jumps around and doesn't look down on him like this. When he was digging orchid roots with the handsome foreigner, he couldn't be too aggressive because of the foreigner. Now he is the only bodyguard. There are no outsiders and no scruples. He can do it with great effort. live.
"The three or four you are talking about are those welwitschia whose calyx is only as big as a bowl?" She could dig up hundreds of small plants like that in one night.
"Of course not, it's the kind as big as two bowls." Yan Xing touched his nose, and he was indeed looked down upon. He had to perform well for a while, show off his strength, and make the little loli look at him with admiration.
Le Yun has given up her expectations for handsome guy Yan. He is too unreliable, so she still doesn't want to be serious with him. Being serious is too tiring.
It was getting dark, and when it was time to get to work, she didn't hesitate. She took out two sharp-nosed hoes and a shovel, and the handles from her big backpack, put them together, took the backpack that was always with her, and set off.
The coastal desert of Anguo is the starting point of the Namib Desert. There are large and small Welwitschia scattered everywhere in many places. Its density is higher than that of the narrow coastal desert belt of Namibia. In some valleys, desert plains, Welwitschia is the largest Pieces upon pieces.
The area of the Namib Desert in Angolan is smaller than that of the Namib Desert, but there are more Welwitschia. It is also the national flower of Angola.
The place where Classmate Le and Young Master Yan stayed was a semi-desert area with bare rocky mountains and desert grasslands. The tent was pitched at the foot of the rocky mountain, about a mile away from the Welwitschia.
Using flashlights, the two walked into the desert grassland basin where Welwitschia grows. Welwitschia were all over the ground in groups, like giant octopuses lying on the sand to bask in the stars.
The little Lolita moved among the Welwitschia group, walked up to a big tree, and said with a smile: "Yan Xiao Long Bao, I leave this one to you, hollow out this tree in the gravel, and you can choose any of the nearby ones." Start with one tree."
Yan Xing, who was ready to do something big, shined a flashlight on his work target, and the corners of his eyes twitched: "Little Lolita, how old is this tree?"
" Compared to the 2,000-year-old birthday girl, this tree is not very old. It is probably a little more than a thousand years old, less than a thousand and one years old. Come on, young man, I am optimistic about you. You can dig out three of these trees tonight. , I will make you your favorite fried loofah meat and coconut stewed pig's trotters, and I will not deduct your portion of the medicinal diet in any case."
Hearing this, Yan Xing clicked his tongue, he is still not old at nearly 1,100 years old? When I heard that I dug three trees to make medicinal food for him, my whole body was in high spirits, but I wilted again a second later, three trees! It was impossible to dig up three thousand-year-old orchid roots overnight. His delicious food, the fat duck that reached his mouth, flew away.
She was bleeding from heartache and sighed: "Little Loli, he is so old, let's respect our elders and stop digging, right? Let's dig out some trees that are five or six hundred years old. The younger trees have stronger vitality, so we dug out the roots. The probability of survival is high."
"Respecting the old and loving the young go together, okay? Why do you respect the old and don't know how to love the young? A tree over a thousand years old can't live for a few hundred years, but a younger tree still has a long life. If a tree can live for a thousand years or eight hundred years, it is better to dig out the young than to dig out the old." "
However, if the tree dies and the official study of the cause of death reveals that some of the roots are missing, it will cause a big mess." If a tree that is thousands of years old is When the orchid dies, officials and botanists must study it. Once it is discovered that part of the tree's roots are missing, it will definitely cause an uproar.
"Don't doubt my medical skills. The Welwitschia I dug up last year and last time are all alive and well. I removed part of the roots from this old tree and used my special medicine to heal the wounds. They will be like rejuvenated to young adults." As time goes by, vitality becomes stronger. I dig up the roots of old trees just to make them live longer." "
Is that true?" There is no doubt about Little Loli's medical skills, but people and trees are not the same species.
"Xiaolongbao, you only need to believe in one sentence - those who believe in music and music will have eternal life." Immortality is not possible, longevity is a must.
Yan Xing: "..." What else did he say? His future girlfriend said that if he believed in her, he would have eternal life. He didn't believe in eternal life, so he had to believe in her.
So, without saying anything, he put on his headlamp, tied the Welwitschia leaves together, and started working with a hoe a few meters away from the tree.
After arranging the work for Handsome Yan, Mr. Le Xiao jumped out of the way, first ran in the south direction, and then ran towards the coastline for about two miles. He stopped in an arid desert with sparse Welwitschia trees and found him. A few old Welwitschia trees caught a little fox.
After being slipped out of the Cave Paradise, the little fox guessed that the little girl had made him a long-term laborer again, and said with a bitter look on his face: "Little girl, the strength that this fox has accumulated so hard cannot be consumed like this. To dig a tree, more energy must be added." A meal of soup."
"Little fox, let's talk about it. For every three orchid trees you dig for me, I'll make you an extra milk and sheep's stomach heart-warming soup. If you help me dig ten trees, I'll give you an extra one. Make a pot of special soup, and the medicinal materials used are all rare medicinal materials. The soup has miraculous effects. Theoretically speaking, my little body cannot bear the weight of one spoon." After hearing the previous negotiation conditions, the little
fox I originally wanted to be arrogant and refuse and then bargain and try to get some benefits for myself. But after hearing this, I was moved: "Aren't you kidding me?" "I lied to you. You can just refuse to help me in the future
." The little fox is needed. If there were many, she would not be stupid enough to trick him, but would only use medicinal soup to lure him into willing hard labor.
"Deal." The little fox was elated. The soup was delicious. The sheep stomach pot soup made by the little girl was delicious. I fought hard for the heart-warming soup!
After successfully reaching an agreement with the little fox, Le Yun smiled and put the little fox on the sand: "These nearby trees are all good. Help me choose a big one to dig." "Okay, just stay away.
" Sand, the little fox shook his head, puffed out his cheeks, got ready, lay down on the ground and opened his mouth to suck the sand.
The little fox was an activist. Leyun jumped away and stood watching for a few seconds. She was shocked by the way the little fox dug in the sand. She turned around silently and ran to a place more than 200 meters away to catch the little fox hiding in the sand. Take a rattlesnake out of the house, take its venom, and release it again.
Yan Chihuo and the little fox were doing physical work, and she herself was too embarrassed to be idle. She found a thousand-year-old Welwitschia, took out the tools to dig, and had fun while digging out the sand and transporting it to space. She had a plug-in, The little fox has a bottomless pit in his belly, but the Xiao Long Bao can only shovel sand one spade at a time. Poor Xiao Long Bao.
Young Master Yan, who was thinking about her, worked hard. He didn't find the little Loli running away, so he didn't have time to care. Anyway, the Little Loli asked him to participate in the action. The best result was to act alone without telling her. Just turn a blind eye.
Young Master Yan was sweating profusely, and the little fox was eating the soil easily. The Welwitschia tree was very old, with roots as thick as the calyx and more than thirty meters deep. Even he spent nearly an hour digging to the root.
After hollowing out the base of an orchid, he spit out the sand and piled it aside. Then he went to a nearby Welwitschia tree to absorb the sand and dug a deep, half-moon-shaped pit before continuing to search for the next target.
The little fox also has a sharp eye. He specializes in picking the oldest trees as targets. He hollows out the sand at the bottom of an orchid and piles a pile of sand next to it to make room for his stomach to load sand in the next place.
When he dug the fourth tree, he observed the density of Welwitschia plants nearby, dug out the entire orchid tree, and moved it not far from the Welwitschia tree pit where he had dug a hole in front of him. Then he filled the hole back up, erased the traces, and went there again. Dig the fifth and sixth trees.
The little fox dug up seven thousand-year-old Welwitschia trees in succession. It was not too early to see that the time was not too early. The little girl was also getting orchid roots. He paused his work and went to a distance to suck a few mouthfuls of sand before returning to the first tree he dug, the little one. The girl has cut off most of the roots of the Welwitschia and is backfilling the big hole she dug.
It’s true that Mr. Le Xiao has a plug-in. Digging in the sand is also a physical job. After a lot of effort, it was almost twelve o’clock before he dug out the roots of a Welwitschia tree he dug and gave it to the orchid tree. Apply the medicine and fill the hole, cover up the traces, and then go back to intercept the Welwitschia roots that the little fox dug into the hole.
She was only responsible for intercepting the Langan, and the little fox was responsible for filling the holes. He also took care of covering up the traces. He could cover the footprints with sand with a sweep of his big tail.
One person and one fox worked together happily. After working for more than two hours, we called it a day.
It was already half past two in the morning. Classmate Le quickly sent the little fox back to space, gave him a bath and put him to sleep. She unfolded her scud and flew back to find handsome guy Yan.
