Chapter 1111 The Best Labor

Because he wanted to go to Anguo as soon as possible, classmate Le stayed one night near a famous mining town near the sea in the southern desert of Nami, and grabbed Handsome Yan’s strong man to help him dig. At noon the next day, we took a small plane deep into the inner grassland and stayed overnight, and returned to the capital of Nano on the 12th.

That day was Monday. After returning to the capital of Namibia, Young Master Yan accompanied Little Loli to go to the Anguo Embassy to get a visa. He would also return the guns borrowed from the Embassy of the Great Celestial Empire in Namibia. go back.

There is only a boundary river between Namibia and Anguo, and they are connected by airplanes and roads. Many trades between Great China and Anguo use Namibia as a transit point and rely on roads to circulate.

The two countries are very close to each other. The famous Red Clay People 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.

Mr. 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 and did not arrive in Angola and Namibia until mid-afternoon. The capital of the border province of Cunena.

Anguo was very wealthy during the colonial era, with abundant food and could export it. After independence, there was a civil war that lasted for nearly thirty years. Various infrastructures were damaged to varying degrees, and the food content was The supply is insufficient, the economy is in recession, and the people suffering from civil strife are also eager for peace. Some provinces have been in trouble 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. one.

Cunena Province, which is across the river from Nami, is the province with the most red mud people in Anguo. Unfortunately, the tourism company in the capital of Cunena Province is not large in scale and does not have a helicopter rental business. Therefore, Classmate Le and Handsome Yan first stopped in the capital of Cunena Province, and then rented a small plane from the coastal city of Namibe to arrive at the capital of Cunena Province tomorrow.

The capital of Cunei Province is probably 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 hurried back to the hotel, Nami's Public security is good, but the security aspect of Anguo is still quite worrying. People of the Great Heavenly Dynasty have been robbed frequently in Anguo's engineering project residences.

When traveling, safety is the top priority. The embassy has reminded that Mr. Yan also puts safety issues first. The facilities in the hotel are average. It is said to be a star hotel, which is equivalent to ordinary hotels in domestic cities and towns. At the hotel, he was worried that there would be some criminals in the middle of the night, so he worked as a night watchman for the little Lolita all 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 LeMeet the helicopter on the outskirts of the city and take the flight 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 also flows from the river to the west into the sea. The rivers of Anguo are similar to the saying of the Great Celestial Dynasty, "The big river flows eastward." The views are contradictory, and it is most likely for the Chinese people to doubt that domestic geography has been learned in vain.

Mr. 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. It stopped at a town to refuel and had lunch. It continued flying in the afternoon. At the guest's request, the helicopter flew slower until 4 p.m. It was around 1 o'clock when we approached the Namib Desert along the northwest coastline.

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.

When the little Loli stopped halfway, 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 is only responsible for collecting whatever she sees.

In the evening, the two found a place to camp. On the second day, they dug plants for a day. 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 The small plane was sent to the desert wilderness with Welwitschia, and they set up camp in a place with water sources.

It was the first time I entered the desert of Anguo. I didn’t know much about the living areas of the prey. Yan Xing didn’t catch any prey. He ate the dry food he had brought with him at night. It was just getting dark. He couldn’t bear it and was excited. Urging the little Lolita: "Little Lolita, it's getting dark. Let's dig up the Welwitschia as soon as possible. Maybe I can dig out two of them."

"Pull them down. Two, if you can dig out one, it will be good." Le Yun poured cold water on him directly. 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. There is no excavator or tools to transport sand. As far as manual digging is concerned, the fact that he can dig out a complete Welwitschia is a blessing.

"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? I can dig out more than three for you. Make me two medicinal meals." Yan Xing jumped to his feet, not wanting to look down upon him like this. When he was digging orchid roots with the handsome foreigner, he couldn't be too aggressive because of the foreigners. Now he is the only bodyguard, and there are no outsiders around. He has no scruples. Able to work very hard.

"The three or four you are talking about are the 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 that's as big as two bowls." Yan Xing touched his nose. He was indeed looked down upon. He had to behave well for a while., showed off his strength, and made 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 start work, she didn’t hesitate. She took out two sharp-nosed hoes and a shovel, the handles, and put them together again, taking them with her at all times. Pack your backpack and go.

The desert along the coast of Anguo is the starting point of the Namib Desert. Welwitschia, large and small, are scattered all over the place in many places. Its density is higher than that of the narrow coastal desert belt of Namib. Some of them are There are patches of Welwitschia in the valleys, deserts and plains.

The Namib Desert in Angolan is smaller than the desert in Namib, 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. The Welwitschia trees all over the ground formed 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, dig out the gravel of this tree, You can pick any of the nearby trees to start with."

Yan Xing, who was gearing up for a big fight, shined a flashlight on his work target, and the corners of his eyes twitched fiercely. : "Little Lolita, how old is this tree?"

"Compared to the 2,000-year-old birthday girl, this tree is not very old, probably a little more than a thousand years old, less than a year old. Qianyi. Come on, young man, I’m optimistic about you. If you can dig out three of these tonight, I’ll make you your favorite fried loofah meat and coconut stewed pig’s trotters, and I won’t deduct your salary in any case. A medicinal meal."

Hearing this, Yan Xing clicked his tongue. He is still not old even if he is 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 Lolita, he is so old, let's respect him a little more and stop digging, right? Let's find some trees that are five or six hundred years old and dig them a little younger. The tree has strong vitality, and the probability of survival after digging the roots is high."

"Respecting the old and loving the young goes hand in hand, okay? Why don't you respect the old and not know how to love the young? There are not many trees over a thousand years old. A hundred years is worse than a hundred years. The younger trees still have a long life and can live for a thousand or eight hundred years. It is better to dig out the young than to dig out the old."

"But if the tree dies, Official research on the cause of death found that some roots were missing, which would cause a big mess." IfThe thousand-year-old Welwitschia is dead, and officials and botanists must study it. Once they find 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 took out part of the roots of this old tree and cured it with my special medicine. Wounds, they are like rejuvenating children to young adults, with stronger vitality. I dig up the roots of old trees just to make them live longer."

"Is this true?" Little Lolita's medical skills are incredible. It is doubtful, however, that humans and trees are not the same species.

"Xiao Long Bao, 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, Le Xiaoxiao jumped out of the way and ran first to the south, and then to the coastline for about two miles. I stopped in the arid desert of orchids, found a few old Welwitschia trees, and caught the little fox.

After being slipped out of the cave, 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 I finally accumulated can't be consumed like this. , digging a tree requires adding another meal of soup.”

“Little fox, let’s talk about it, every time you help me dig three orchid roots, I will make you an extra milk and sheep stomach treasure. Heart-warming soup, help me dig ten trees, and I will cook you an extra pot of special soup. The medicinal materials used are all rare medicinal materials. The soup you make has miraculous effects. In theory, my little body cannot bear it. The amount of a spoon."

Upon hearing the previous negotiation terms, the little fox originally wanted to reject it and then bargain, trying to get some benefits for himself. After hearing this, he was moved: "You don't "Tricking a fox?"

"I'm tricking you, but you can refuse to help me in the future." There are many places where the little fox needs to be used, and she won't be stupid enough to trick him. She will only use medicinal soup to seduce him. He was a willing laborer.

"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!

Successfully reaching an agreement with the little fox, Le Yun smiled and put the little fox on the sand: "The trees nearby are all good. Please help me choose the big one to dig."

"Okay, just stay away." The little fox stepped on the sand, shook his head, puffed out his cheeks, and got ready, lying on the ground and opening his mouth to suck the sand.

The little fox is an activist, Le Yun jumps and jumpsHe opened the door and stood watching for a few seconds. He was shocked by the way the little fox dug in the sand. He silently turned around and ran to a place more than 200 meters away to catch a rattlesnake hidden in the sand and extract its venom. Release again.

Yan Foodie 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 transported the sand to space while digging. While having fun, she had cheats. The little fox had a bottomless pit in her belly, and Xiao Long Bao could only shovel sand one spade at a time. Poor Xiao Long Bao.

Mr. Yan, who was thinking about him, worked hard. He didn’t notice the little Loli running away, so he didn’t have time to care. Anyway, the little Loli asked him to participate in the operation, and he didn’t hide it from her alone. Action is the best result, otherwise just turn a blind eye.

Mr. Yan is sweating profusely, and the little fox eats the soil easily. The Welwitschia tree is very old, with roots as thick as the calyx and more than thirty meters deep. Even he has spent nearly It took an hour to dig to the bottom.

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 suck up the sand, dug out a half-moon-shaped deep pit, and then continued searching. 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 give his belly some room to go to the next one. Place to hold sand.

When he dug the fourth tree, he observed the density of Welwitschia plants nearby, dug out the entire orchid tree, moved it to the hole dug in front of the Welwitschia tree not far away, and went back to fill the hole. When it is full, erase the traces and dig out the fifth and sixth trees.

The little fox dug up seven thousand-year-old Welwitschia trees in a row. It was not too early, and the little girl was also getting orchid roots. He paused his work, went to the distance to suck a few mouthfuls of sand, and returned to The little girl had cut off most of the roots of the first Welwitschia tree she dug, and was backfilling the big hole she had dug.

It is true that Mr. Le Xiao has a plug-in. Digging in the sand is also a physical job. After all the effort, it was almost twelve o'clock before he finally dug out the Welwitschia that he dug. Dig out the roots, apply medicine to the orchid roots and then fill the hole. After covering up the traces, go back and 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 cooperated happily. After working for more than two hours, we called it a day.

Seeing that it was already half past two in the morning, Le classmate hurriedly 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.
