Chapter 1009: Good Times
The grass is green, the road is undulating and shuttles between the grasslands, and groups of cattle and sheep shuttle among them, and the cattle and sheep on these endless green pastures look extraordinarily leisurely.
Zhang Chu lowered the window of the passenger seat, allowing the slightly clammy and cold air to shuttle in, but it was a little different from the imagined taste.
Sparsely populated, it took a long time to meet a car driving from the opposite side, as if driving in a no-man's land, obviously this is just the suburbs of Auckland!
"Eh, Koman, what are you doing over there, why are you still dressing the horses?"
After driving for almost an hour, he finally saw a few people on the side of the road dressing horses in clothes similar to ancient armor, which made Zhang Chu slightly puzzled.
Koeman is actually a Chinese-Singaporean, but the Asian traits don't seem to be obvious to him, almost exactly like the New Zealanders around him, but he is fluent in Mandarin as soon as he speaks.
"New Zealand has interesting facts about horses dressed, sheep without tails and cows lining up. Koman pointed to the grazing horses over there and said with a smile: "Our New Zealand ultraviolet rays are too strong, so in order to prevent the horses from getting sunburned, we give them such clothes." In addition, in order to prevent the horses from injuring their knees and feet due to sudden force, they put heavy objects such as iron or gravel in the pockets of their protective clothing, so that they can slowly adapt to the weight after warming up and then exert force without injury!"
In the end, it is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, and if you don't look at these things directly, you won't have any understanding at all.
Even if these things do not directly improve the study, life and work, they are still very helpful for personal knowledge.
Anmi in the back row asked, "Then why do you say that the sheep have no tail?
Koman explained as he drove, "Have you noticed, in fact, there are no goats in New Zealand, all sheep!"
"Well, we don't recognize the difference between a goat and a sheep. Sheep should be the kind of sheep with a lot of hair, right?" Zhang Chu's cognition of these two kinds of sheep in his mind is very weak, is it true that sheep are born without tails?
Not to mention Zhang Chu, I'm afraid it's difficult for their parents' generation to know the difference between the two kinds of sheep.
Koman has been working for such high-end private tour guides for a long time, and naturally understands that his customers are not really good at these aspects, so he has no more difficulties.
"Goats eat grass roots, which destroys pastures, so raising sheep is good for pastures. Sheep tails are completely useless and prone to infection, being cut off at a very young age. As for the cow queuing, it means that the cows have formed a habit since childhood, and will consciously queue up when they are squeezed by the machine, if you have time, I can take you to a medium-sized ranch to experience the ranch life. ”
Zhang Chu was a little moved, but he still shook his head, "We don't have enough time, and it is estimated that we won't even be able to finish the North Island in a week, let alone go to the South Island." Let's take a look at it later when we have a chance. ”
He's going to buy a large ranch here, and put Hobbiton and Shire in the ranch, which is very cool!
It was dark and it seemed to be raining, so they put their transparent raincoats in their backpacks and stepped out of the car, ready to walk along a small winding road to the summit of Mount Eden.
As soon as they reached the mountainside, a drizzle began to fall, making it much more difficult for them to climb the mountain.
Auckland's first stop is the Mount Eden, which offers a panoramic view of the city, but the view is somewhat obstructed.
"Does Mount Eden have anything to do with the Garden of Eden? Sounds like a story from the Bible. Zhang Chu carefully took out his mobile phone and took a photo on it, ready to share it on the Internet.
Who knew that Corman shook his head, "It has nothing to do with the Bible, it comes from the name of a governor in the first place." ”
Yang Ling smiled: "This name is too easy to misunderstand, but it adds a little mystery, and people can't help but want to come and see it." ”
The Sky Tower, the Bay Bridge, and the endless villas look spectacular, and the most spectacular is the extinct volcanic crater!
The whole of Auckland is actually built on the ruins of extinct volcanoes, and those small hills or hills that look like cones are extinct craters.
I don't know why, when Zhang Chu saw the warning sign of "Do not enter the crater", he had an angry thought, in addition to English, Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish, which looked very conspicuous.
Probably due to the rain, there are no tourists on the mountain, and it is relatively deserted, except for a young man in outdoor sportswear who is running in the rain with headphones on headphones a little farther away.
The first day of the tour is just to walk around Auckland, and tomorrow we will leave for other places, and sometimes it is a physical activity, and it is not as easy as you think.
Far away from school and work, there is no quarrel on the Internet, only this green mountains and green waters, Zhang Chu feels that he is instantly resurrected with full blood and a state of full blood, and he can have millions of words!
In fact, when the editor of Hanlin Culture Media revealed that he only traveled to New Zealand, netizens were worried.
is not worried about Zhang Chu's safety, but worried about whether "Ghost Blows the Lantern" will be interrupted.
Originally, the update of two chapters a day was relatively slow.,If it's interrupted.,It's really like crying without tears!
Zhang Chu didn't bring a laptop on this trip, he could only use an iPad if he wanted to write more content, and even netizens suggested that he use voice input, but then the shame was too great.
He posted a solo selfie of himself on Mount Eden to Weibo, and there was no P picture, it was really pure makeup, with the text written: "You guys are so hot in the northern hemisphere that you have heat stroke, and I am shivering with cold in the southern hemisphere!"
Fans were surprised that this guy actually took the initiative to take a selfie, which is a big miracle.
It's just that I clicked on it and took a look, only to find that it was really a straight man's angle, and I didn't look up at the sky at all at 45 degrees, if it weren't for the good foundation, I'm afraid it would become black history!
"You're in New Zealand, don't forget to update, if you break the shift, I'll wait for you at the airport with a blade. ”
"It's still handsome, please add a filter next time, and by the way, grind the skin and change the angle, you still have to rely on this face to eat!"
"Yes, yes, everyone should encourage him to take more selfies. ”
"What's the use of posting more selfies, it's better to post a few more chapters, I'm not a fan~"
"You bad guy, where's matcha? where did you put it!"
"Play and have fun, and write down. When you come back, write out all the ghost blowing lamps in one go, hahahaha."
"Aren't you going to record a talk show? Aren't you going to take good care of your face?

When I was writing this chapter, I suddenly remembered the "Golden Ranch" I wrote when I was in college, which is about the protagonist's farming essay on opening a ranch in Australia, and it has been many years in a blink of an eye.
Today is still the third watch, and there is a 200 monthly ticket to be sent away!
