The birth of the daughters brought endless joy to the three families who lived in Brecken Tree Farm. However, when the time entered late January 2013, life was back on track. Lin Yilong is leaving home temporarily and heading to Namibia.

The cost of a safari in Namibia is not cheap, but the cost of hunting is not too outrageous: the resort lists a basic cost of $450 per person per day for hunting and overnight stays, animals that range from $800 to $1,000 per head, and ammunition and other equipment. Therefore, if you have excellent hunting quality, you can happily pay a cost price.

The friends of the Farmers' Club did not have such qualities and had to turn to experts in this area, and as a result, there were many hidden costs, the most important of which was the cost of security.

Since the departure of South African colonists, law and order has been terrible, with murder and other serious personal crimes ranked among the top 20 in the world. Even if it is not as good as in war-torn areas, security investment is absolutely necessary and necessary. At the price of a London security company, it would cost them around £60,000 to cover the entire trip – including the plane from Windhoek airport to and from the resort and security in the hunting area.

These two are the biggest and compared to the £4,000 Lufthansa cost from Heathrow to Windhoek and £250 per day at the resort, which is nothing compared to the two. More nuanced things like vaccinations and hunting insurance are not counted.

Incidentally, in order to increase foreign exchange earnings, Namibia encourages private hunting grounds – the International Federation of Hunters invests hundreds of millions of dollars every year to raise a variety of recreational hunting animals and put them in various hunting grounds. This is actually no different from the royal hunting grounds of the Qing Dynasty, anyway, they are all specially "stocked" prey, and it doesn't seem to matter if they hunt one or two.

On the day of departure, Lin Yilong took Katie to the first-class rest area four hours in advance, and he was invited here by Mr. Hovey.

The content of the two talks is probably related to the previous meeting between Lin Yilong and Mr. Huo Wei, and the thing is probably like this: Mr. Huo Wei was elected by the local peasant association to be the treasurer. Although he only reimburses travel expenses for business negotiations, Mr. Hovey is also happy to help his farmer brothers in Scarborough and Viterbi come forward to buy fertilizer collectively, which is what he is good at. However, the distributorship of a certain fertilizer represented by the fertilizer merchant they had been trading this year had expired, and Mr. Hovey, who was unaware of it, continued to order from the merchant. Naturally, it was impossible for the businessman to sell the real fertilizer to the peasant association represented by Mr. Hovey at a loss, so he found a certain Celestial Dynasty merchant living in Yorkshire, and hired illegal immigrants from South Vietnam to exchange the inferior fertilizer for the fertilizer that Mr. Hovey needed in the house by means of counterfeiting, and delivered it. The fertilizer was sown and a large area of the potato harvest was lost. The fact that agricultural insurance covers the losses incurred as a result of such an accident does not exempt Mr. Howe from liability. The insurer was relentless in pursuing Mr. Hovey's liability. This is not a small amount of money, but an insurance recovery of 5 million pounds.

This situation is not too bad for Mr. Hovey, and his lawyer gives many kinds of defense protection - but the problem is that once the dispute goes to court, it becomes a protracted process, especially if the amount of money in the case is so high, it can only be considered lucky to last five or six years. Mr. Hovey's negligence led to his suspension from the farmers' association, and to his detriment, he did not retain any evidence that he had fulfilled his duty to "scrutinize" the qualifications of the fertilizer merchants. Even if Mr. Hovey called the police, as long as the fertilizer merchant could not show up, it would not help his case.

So, in order to defend against the insurer's recovery, and to win back the trust of the local farmers, he had to find the fertilizer merchant who seemed to him to be his duty. There are faces of the Celestial Empire in the case, and it is a legal dispute, and Mr. Huo Wei hopes that Lin Yilong can help him in this matter.

Lin Yilong immediately agreed, the Celestial Empire factor is nothing in his opinion, if there is no counterfeiter of the Celestial Empire, there will be Italy, Spain, Morocco, and it is even more important to find the fertilizer merchant who has run away. Three days before his daughter's birth, the location of the fertilizer merchant was sent to Mr. Hovey. The victim then used the contacts given by Lin Yilong to gather three strong men and find the dishonest fertilizer merchant in the Turkish-controlled area of Cyprus, "convinced him", and the merchant had to return to the UK. All of Mr. Hovey's problems were thus solved after the New Year—the insurer gave up his claim against Mr. Hovey, and Mr. Hovey was reinstated, losing no more than a small amount of £30,000 and the confidence of some of the peasants.

"I really appreciate you so much. Mr. Huo Wei sincerely thanked Lin Yilong, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to keep such a large amount of money." ”

"It's okay, that's what I'm supposed to do. Lin Yilong replied, "I also made a little money from small and medium-sized enterprises, which is nothing." ”

"Please be sure to visit my estate. Mr. Huo Wei sent an invitation to Lin Yilong, "Yilong, you will be the most honored guest of the manor. ”

"Definitely, definitely. Lin Yilong nodded, "But, even so, I want to be honest, why do you sometimes think that North Yorkshire has nothing to do?"

"The west has a lot of precipitation and very much woods and meadows, which are suitable for sheep grazing and hunting. "Wheat and potatoes are very dry, and the east is farmland. So if it's an endless plain, of course, there's nothing to do, but we have other ways to spend it. ”

"What is it?" Lin Yilong asked.

"Fishing. "The North Sea was rough and there was no good pastime on the shore, so we went out fishing." ”

Lin Yilong immediately lost interest in going to Scarborough, North York is really a desert of entertainment in every sense of the word. Yorkshire's cultural environment is good, but that's South York, and north of Middlesbrough is a commercial and industrial town, and Scarborough in between, while the scenery may feel good to Yorkshire's residents, it's not as good as the undulating Bracken Hills.

The topic of North York is not going on, and South Wales has recently been trapped by a large number of unemployed miners and steelworkers, so they can only find topics that make little sense to talk about. There was really nothing to communicate with the peasants and the peasants, and although they called each other friends, they maintained a kind of humble gentlemanly respect—that is, distantness.
