776. Working together
After roughly describing the situation of this vegetable market, Zhang Yang focused his attention on He Xiaoman's question just now, that is, about the sale of wild animals here.
"In fact, we can now see so much game for sale in the local vegetable market in Laos, which is also related to the topography and climate of Laos, although the total area of this country is only 230,000 square kilometers, but more than 80% of the whole territory is mountains and plateaus, which we have seen along the way.
Therefore, even the capital of Vientiane gives people the feeling that it is the same as knowing that there is a beautiful landscape outside Vientiane, which is not at all like the capital of a country.
Of course, in addition to the geomorphological environment, Laos has abundant rainfall, the climate is tropical, subtropical, and the population of Laos is not large, which has led to the flood of wild animals in Laos. ”
After talking about the reason why there is an abundance of wild animals here, Zhang Yang began to talk about the current state of game here.
"But if there is a flood of wildlife in Laos, it is only in the past, and now the wildlife in Laos is also decreasing, in addition to the environmental damage caused by human activities, the most important thing is the wanton hunting of people.
With the rise of tourism in Laos in recent years, many foreign tourists travel to Laos, just for the local wild animals, so Laotians have begun to slowly protect wild animals, such as the wild vegetable market we see today is actually rare, or more people are selling privately farmed. ”
Zhang Yang, who was talking about this, suddenly remembered the current situation he had learned about before, and couldn't help but look up at the drone flying in the air, and then said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, there is another interesting thing, although the number of wild animals has decreased dramatically in recent years, but fortunately, people here have begun to develop a sense of conservation, so there is a very interesting thing. ”
The sudden change in the topic made He Xiaoman immediately shift his attention to this side, and then looked at Zhang Yang curiously and asked.
"What's so interesting? Is it about getting tourists involved in catching wildlife?"
Hearing this, it is not difficult to imagine that He Xiaoman should not have recovered from the situation just now, and would actually associate interesting things with catching wild animals, which made Zhang Yang immediately shake his head, only to see him say with a smile on his face.
"Of course it's not, I'm going to say that it's a very interesting thing to see wildlife in Laos, so let me give you an example.
For example, after our tourists come, the tour guide here will plan a tourist route, so on this tourist route, if you see a monkey, they will charge 20 yuan, and if you see an antelope, they will charge another 15 yuan, etc., if you don't see wild animals, then it will be free. ”
Nani?
"Holy, what's this way to play?"
"Didn't you collect the money in advance, and then you can see Suiyuan when you go in?"
"Hey, it's the first time I've seen this kind of play, but it's a lot of fun. ”
"Haha, then if I see a group of monkeys, I won't go bankrupt!"
"emmm upstairs, there is a problem with your understanding, Brother Yang just said that he saw a monkey and charged 20, but people didn't say that they saw a monkey and charged 20, figure out the situation!"
"Otherwise, I think it's quite interesting, and I kind of want to go over there for a while. ”
He Xiaoman also looked at Zhang Yang in surprise, not to mention, the kind of tourism mode that Zhang Yang said just now sounds really interesting.
"Husband, it can't be true, right? Then this kind of tourism mode is quite interesting, I feel quite for the sake of tourists, after all, whether the wild animals can be seen or not is really a matter of luck, and it is actually charged when you see it here?"
For He Xiaoman's question, Zhang Yang naturally understands, after all, like some places similar to wildlife parks, people don't care if you can see it or not, anyway, pay money to let you in, some better places people will find a few places with a very high probability in advance, and then take tourists over, but the gameplay like Laos is really fresh.
"Of course, after all, seeing animals in the mountains and forests depends on luck, which has to be said that the local people are simple, because of the charge for tourists to see wild animals, in order to make their own money, the local people have also begun to slowly protect these wild animals.
And you should know that most of the locals are engaged in agriculture and do not have much external income, and the income brought by tourists can be said to be a windfall.
However, even because of this, there are still people poaching these wild animals, and although some mountains and forests are protected by forest rangers, it is difficult to prevent poaching in the face of poachers with props and explosives in their hands, and the large area of the mountain forest.
Speaking of which, this situation is very common all over the world, just like some of the advertisements some time ago said, "no trading, no killing", but the fact is that from the emergence of human beings, from the earliest barter to the current money transaction, buying and selling has never been broken, and human desires have never disappeared, so to achieve this goal is not just a part of the people to work hard, but all of us need to work together. ”
Suddenly talking about such things as buying and selling, Zhang Yang also sighed softly, and then raised his head to look at the live broadcast room and said.
"You know what?
Those who poach wild animals will sell them on the black market after they succeed, and it is said that in recent years, many of our domestic businessmen have also begun to participate in this black chain of interests, and sometimes sell these wild animals to China.
To take the simplest example, for example, a bear's paw will cost more than 600 yuan, and these domestic businessmen are not only involved in the sale of wild animals, but also some will open hotels, inns, and even the development of tourist attractions in the local area, after all, there are too many foreign tourists in Laos now, with more than 5 million tourists every year, which brings them a lot of income.
So, things like preventing the hunting of wild animals aren't just for those who protect animals, it's something that everyone should work together to achieve. ”
More than a kilometer away, in the eyes of Zhang Yang and the two who were stepping on the balance bike, they were just chatting with the people in the live broadcast room, and after returning to the small parking lot on the side of the Arc de Triomphe, Zhang Yang immediately entered the kitchen with the ingredients he bought this time, while He Xiaoman prepared dinner for a few little guys at home outside.
After going abroad this time, the division of labor between the two is now clear, under normal circumstances, Zhang Yang prepares people to eat, and He Xiaoman prepares animals to eat, unless there are too many of them one day, or the little ones at home want to eat Zhang Yang's cooking.
The 5 local specialties to be made tonight, Zhang Yang had already thought about it before going to the vegetable market, and he had already read the relevant recipes and foods in his mind for a long time, and he had even rehearsed them virtually many times in his mind.
"Okay, everyone get ready, today's 5 dishes are still quite simple, if there are people who want to try it, they will say it in the live broadcast room, I will try to slow down as much as possible!"
