Time passed imperceptibly, and soon it was the middle of January.

The flower shop calmed down after taking over the hotel to open the flower basket business, and there was no big business, at most some cars passed by the road, and the flower shop would stop and buy a bouquet of flowers by the way.

South Africans are quite fond of flowers, or rather, they like this romantic element.

The Tree of Life expanded rapidly, it did not grow taller than one of them, but grew horizontally, and the canopy spread out to more than 2,000 square meters, almost the size of five standard basketball courts.

Its overall shape is a bit dwarfed, like a Heim's ant nest umbrella next to a termite nest.

But this is also the characteristic of the Tree of Life, which does not seek to be tall, but to provide a habitat for elves and life.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the reserve, Yang Shubao went to remove the Transfiguration Technique and took a look, he felt that this tree of life was magnificent enough to build a wooden house on it, and the elves did not have a dormitory yet.

The white vines planted under the tree grew, and the thick green vines grew around the tree of life, wrapping around and around, and at this time it was not already a hundred meters long, growing from the roots to the canopy.

It seems that the tree of life also wants to turn it into a step, and the energy supplied to it is the most abundant, this white vine now grows as thick as Yang Shubao's calf, like a rope ladder wrapped around the trunk, and the elves are stepping on this white vine to climb the tree.

Yang Shubao stepped on the white vine and climbed up, he went to take the life spring as usual, and then tore off a piece of white vine bark and stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.

It doesn't taste very good, but it contains anti-inflammatory ingredients, and it's not an antibiotic, so it's not afraid of drug resistance, and it works well when it's okay to chew two bites.

There are countless birds inhabiting the trees, rats, parrots, and most of them are weavers.

There are weaving birds' nests hanging on the branches, the largest of which is like a small grass house, with a diameter of more than a meter, which can be used as a tree house for a child.

He thought there were many weavers in the nest, but when he went up, a pointed beak popped up, and then a large bird appeared: sharp eyes, tough claws, and gray and black feathers, this was an African falcon.

John, who was sitting on a branch eating the fruit, smiled, "Surprised, right?"

Yang Shubao nodded and said, "How many kinds of birds are there in this tree now?" It's really a surprise, I didn't expect there to be a little falcon on our territory." ”

The African falcon is a relatively small falcon among the falcons, commonly known as the little falcon, their combat effectiveness is relatively strong, but far less than the African sky overlord of the eagle and the crown eagle.

"Yes," John said, "I thought it would catch the weaver and try to get it out of the nest, but they actually roosted together and there was no conflict. ”

"They don't have conflicts, it's a win-win situation for them to live together, the little falcons don't build nests, and the weaver birds have big nests that can accommodate them and give them shelter from the wind and rain," Yang said. ”

The weaver bird provides its nest to the little falcon for protection, and they are vulnerable to snakes and badgers, and if a snake gets into the nest, the entire family of weavers will die.

This situation is easy to deal with with the little falcon, although the little falcon is not as good as the eagle and the crown eagle, but after all, it is a carnivorous bird of prey, and the ordinary poisonous snake is to deliver food in front of them.

Yang Shubao touched the little falcon's head, and the little falcon came out and saw that he was knocking on the door and went back again.

They love the nest of the weaver bird, which is not only wide but also well ventilated, and think of how happy it is to have a breezy nest when hunting outside every day and suffering from the scorching sun.

The Tree of Life leaves a place for the elves to build their houses, and each main branch will smoothly expand outward when it forks, so that the planks can be laid on the branches, which greatly facilitates the establishment of the treehouse.

Yang Shubao looked at the growth of the tree branches, he had searched on the Internet before, there is a special tree house company in South Africa, so that you don't have to build a tree house from scratch, as long as you choose the size, you can go directly to buy a tree house, and bring it back for splicing when the time comes.

Now there are a total of seven elves in his territory, and the branches that have grown happen to be seven, but two branches are still relatively small on the periphery, and the tree of life is still growing, and the size of these branches will still increase.

So Lao Yang wanted to build five treehouses first, not all of these five treehouses were used as bedrooms, four bedrooms and a living room, and the branches next to the Fountain of Life were the strongest, longest and widest, and he could build a living room here.

If you want to buy a treehouse, you have to go to Durban, Yang Shubao called in advance to communicate with the factory, they have samples and stocks, most of the wooden houses are good, as long as the size is right, you can take it back on the spot.

In the middle of the year, when there was nothing to do, Yang Shubao drove Ma Long to Durban to buy a tree house.

This treehouse factory is called the woodcutter's accommodation, they do a lot of business, the treehouse is not only supplied to Africa, but more importantly, it is sent to Asia, Europe and the United States by sea, such as the popular aurora viewing wooden house in Sweden is produced by their factory.

The woodcutter stayed in an industrial park on the outskirts of the city, where there were many timber-related factories, and he kept seeing trucks pulling wood to the industrial park on the road, and when he arrived at the gate of the industrial park, he saw trucks pulling furniture, wood products and other goods to the port.

The industrial park is a mix of dragons and snakes, and shemales gather, and the security forces here are very strong, and there are four middle-aged black men patrolling with guns at the door, like an armed stronghold.

Yang Shubao called the salesman at the woodcutter's place at the door, and after a while, a white young man hurriedly ran out to pick him up, and the security guards let him go.

This made Lao Yang quite curious: "Is the security in Durban very bad? Why is the management of the industrial park so strict?"

The salesman Greid smiled bitterly: "Usually not so strict, the factory is relatively empty during the Christmas holiday, and then a group of bastards came in with guns, they robbed the financial departments of several companies, fortunately they didn't kill anyone, just robbed some safes and computers and other things." ”

Yang Shubao was speechless: "There is still such a thing? It's quite serious." ”

Grad shrugged and said, "Who's to say it's not?" So the factory has strengthened management, and each factory has jointly hired a security company to pull the power grid around the whole factory, you see, ......."

He pointed to the fence of the plant, surrounded by a power grid and a wooden sign that read: Secured-by-ADT in scarlet paint.

ADT is a security company, providing 24-hour alarm protection work, and the company will send security personnel to reinforce as soon as possible if there is any abnormality.

Yang Shubao asked, "Is the cost of this security company high?"

"For a factory like ours, the cost of the entire industrial park is tens of millions of dollars a year, but it should not be too high for a family, and the cost of a year after deducting the equipment cost is about 20,000 yuan?"

Yang Shubao nodded after hearing this, he didn't know that there was such a security company in South Africa before, but now that he knows, he wants to get a security service for the flower shop, the old man often goes out, and Nicole is really not safe enough to stay in the flower shop alone.
