253. Open the door to business (5/5)
The Cape Botanical Reserve still likes to bring Yang Shubao back, not to be responsible for international students, in fact, except for a certain big foreign countries, the attitude towards international students is not very good.
Edward wanted to bring him back because the Chinese master's degree was really hard-working and superb, one could be used as a dozen masters in South Africa, and the botanical garden area that Yang Shubao was in charge of before was the best managed, the research project progressed the fastest, and the plant cultivation was the best.
After the ashes incident, they also wanted to contact Yang Shubao's alma mater to summon another master's degree, but they learned that Lao Yang died in South Africa and couldn't even find the bones and slag and could only stand up a mound of clothes, the school's master's students were frightened, and his old classmate Li Zhong's district head's father even spoke in person: Whoever dares to get his son to South Africa, he will use all his connections to get the person to go to Somalia!
Yang Shubao's college originally arranged a taciturn and seemingly bullying female master to take his place, but the girl didn't even want her student status, so she bought a train ticket and ran away overnight.
It is said that I didn't buy a seat ticket and a sleeper, and the girl bought a standing ticket.
Yang Shubao didn't go back, he made his attitude clear: "I don't work for the reserve anymore, I want to build a reserve myself!"
What can Edward and Tiff say? They can only persuade Yang Shubao to think again.
Yang Shubao is really thinking about it, and he is thinking about how to apply for a visa.
In fact, it is very easy for a person of his status to apply for a South African visa, South Africa is eager for him to immigrate over, of course, this is to eat fart, if it weren't for the tree of life rooted in this African grassland, he would have bought a plane ticket and ran away.
You don't have a plane ticket, you can have a ferry ticket, and it doesn't matter if you have a third-class cabin.
Edward and Tiff left unhappy, and it was better that they came to make sure that Yang Shubao was still alive this time, so they thought that maybe the Chinese universities would send them another labor force, after all, the two sides are sister schools, and there are cooperative projects in animal and plant research.
The arrival of these two people can be regarded as a wake-up call to Yang Shubao, his visa is about to expire, and this matter must be done quickly.
The visa that the school helped him with was for one semester, the deadline was in January, and now it is late December, and there is not much time left for him.
It just so happened that he also wanted to go home, one was to appease the restless hearts of his father and grandfather, and the other was that he wanted to get some Chinese pastoral dogs back, this dog let the Warcraft elves tame it, and it is estimated that its performance in taking care of the home is better than that of bloodline dogs such as Golden Retriever and German Shepherd.
This matter is not too late, because February is the Lunar New Year, and he will definitely have to go back to his hometown for the New Year, so if he doesn't go back quickly, the interval between the New Year and the New Year is too short, and there is no point in going back to celebrate the New Year.
The news report not only let the Cape Botanical Reserve know about Yang Shubao's existence, but also helped his reserve to publicize it, and some people even knew about the existence of the reserve.
The day after Edward and the others left, a Toyota drove up to the gate of the reserve, and a man walked out.
Yang Shubao, who heard the news, had never seen him, so he asked in surprise: "Hello sir, may I ask who you are ......?"
"Lawson, Lawson-Bids," the man smiled and held out his hand, "nice to meet you, Mr. Yang, this is your sanctuary, isn't it?
Yang Shubao nodded: "Yes, is there anything wrong?"
The man shook his hand vigorously and said, "That's right, I have two children, they have always been interested in animals and plants, they like nature, so we spend every Christmas holiday in the reserve, this year I want to bring them to you, do you receive tourists here?"
Yang Shubao touched his nose and said, "There is the Great St. Lucia Wetland Park next to it, I think it should be better there, right?"
The man shook his head: "No, we have been there before, and something very bad happened at that time. Yes, we saw bloody scenes, and my children have never been near the sanctuary since. ”
Yang Shubao thought that he was talking about animal predation, so he said: "I also have carnivores here, and I'm afraid there will be not very good scenes." ”
"No, no, you misunderstood me, it has nothing to do with the hunting behavior of carnivores, it is someone who is hunting animals inside, they are hunting animals. The man smiled wryly.
Yang Shubao's eyes shrank: "Poaching?"
The man shook his head: "Probably not, I think it's a commercial hunting event, they pay the park, and then they can hunt certain animals." There is no doubt that this kind of thing is too cruel for a child who loves nature. ”
Yang Shubao thought so, and he asked, "Then how many people are there in total?" To be honest, I don't have some entertainment facilities here, only pure grassland, at most I can provide you with a lunch. ”
"That's enough, there are sixteen of us. Lawson said.
Yang Shubao gasped: "You are a family of sixteen people?"
Lawson said, "Yes, my wife and my children, my brother and sister, their families and children, there are sixteen of them. ”
Yang Shubao pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I think I can receive you, but there are not many animals in my reserve, but it's not bad, I have gorillas here, I don't think your children have been in contact with them." ”
In order for the reserve to survive, there must be a way to make a profit, and charging tickets is the most conventional method, so it is best to receive tourists when they come, start small, become bigger and stronger, and create brilliance.
Hearing this, Lawson became excited: "I just wanted to find a safe place for the children to get in touch with nature, and you still have gorillas here? Is this true?"
"Come with me, lowland gorillas, it's hard to say whether they're eastern or western, but they're very nice and friendly to people. Yang Shubao took him to the fruit grove and picked a pear and handed it to him.
The orangutan group walked slowly in the forest, and they were also looking for fruits, and finally met Lao Yang.
The leading silverback gorilla kindly stretched out his fist at him, Yang Shubao was surprised for a moment, and then also stretched out his fist and collided with it, the gorilla grinned as if he was smiling, and then turned his head away.
It's just too friendly!
Lawson was stunned!
"These orangutans were rescued by the government, they have been trained before, they are very friendly and very intelligent, so I think your children will really like it," Yang said. ”
"I love it too!" Lawson said excitedly, grabbing him by the shoulder.
The matter was settled, Yang Shubao's price was a ticket of 100 yuan per person, and the fruit was all-you-can-eat, so the price was not expensive at all, and it was very affordable.
Lawson generously paid on the spot.
This is a sudden time, Lao Yang, who was going to book a plane ticket, couldn't go back, so he could only wait for the Chinese New Year to go back to his hometown.
The visa is easy to do, he can mail it to the travel agency and spend some money.
