Chapter Eighty-Three: The Dragon's Nest in Australia (1)

"Master, what a big deal!"

Looking at the grand architectural drawings in front of her, Selena's eyes widened in surprise and her face was incredulous.

"The main cost of construction is the land and taxes, and the cost of materials and construction is only 20% of the total construction cost, and Ross Ranch is my private land. There is no land tax fee, and Chinatown seems to be a huge project, but in fact, there is not much cost!"

Wang Zhong pointed to the design drawings and said with a smile.

"I think the advertising slogan of the Shinbu Dojo should also be adjusted appropriately. It's more fitting to use "Dream Home!"

Ruolan looked at the large-scale architectural drawings and said with a smile.

"You're right, I'll ask someone to make a 3D model on a computer and promote it on major channels in Australia!"

Wang Zhong nodded and said:

"Just use the hometown in your dream as an advertising slogan!"

"Ah, that's what I'm saying, it will cost a lot of money to remake the advertisement!"

Ruolan was a little surprised, thinking of the recent expenses like flowing water, and said with some distress.

"You don't have to worry about money, don't forget, I'm the second largest shareholder of Hongjiang Shanghai HSBC. ”

Wang Zhong said indifferently.

"Our construction is not only a building, but also a kind of spiritual sustenance for the Chinese!"

"I understand, I'll keep an eye on the construction process and quality!"

Ruolan nodded and said.

"Thank you, great work!"

Wang Zhong patted Ruolan's hand lightly and said apologetically.

"Thank you, don't forget, I'm also Chinese!"

Ruolan smiled and said with some disgust.

"Master, how can I help?"

Selena volunteered.

"After I go out, you can help Ruolan share the burden!"

Wang Zhong said with a smile.

"Master, you're going out recently?"

Selena asked with some curiosity.

"Well, if you want to help Michelle find a piece of land, you can't help!"

Wang Zhong replied......

Cowboy Bell has served in special forces, adapted to long-term wilderness survival, and is familiar with mountain and forest terrain. He was recommended by William to Wang Zhong as a mountain guide.

Although Australia is isolated from other tectonic plates and surrounded by the sea, there are many species.

The most feared thing about traveling in the mountains is encountering grizzly bears. Grizzly bears and venomous snakes are the two animals with the highest mortality toll in Australia.

Unlike venomous snakes, which live in deserts, grizzly bears live mainly in the mountains and forests.

Although he was in the mountains, Wang Zhong did not feel nervous, after all, the bulky grizzly bear could not pose a threat to him at all.

"Boss, there are a lot of cumulonimbus clouds in the sky, and it's about to rain. We need to find a shelter from the rain nearby. The temperature in the mountains will drop to zero at night, and without the protection of shelter, we will soon freeze, and it is easy to run into animals that go out to forage, and it is a big no-no to travel in the mountains at night!"

Bell looked at the dark clouds in the sky and said with some concern.

"Okay, let's speed up!"

Wang Zhong nodded yes, what Bell said was not wrong at all, if the clothes were wet by the rain, it would consume a lot of calories in the body.

"Good luck, there's an abandoned house there!"

Bell suddenly discovers that there is an abandoned wooden house halfway up the mountain.

“GO,GO!”

The two quickly approached the cabin, but just as Wang Zhong was about to enter the cabin, Bell stopped him.

"Boss, before we explore the cabin, we need to make a fire and then make a giant torch!"

Bell quickly searched around for a lot of dead leaves.

The warm fire illuminates the darkness and also drives away the cold.

Bell also had arbor branches to make a huge torch. The flaming torch is like a giant searchlight, illuminating the surroundings in full view.

"The arbor is a hard, flame-resistant plant, and its branches are well suited for torches. Split the front of the tree with a knife, stuff it with pine branches, thatch, leaves, and add a little bit of pine resin to fuel it!"

"Bell, you're really great, but we have flashlights!"

Wang Zhong shook his head helplessly, turned on the flashlight, and the silver-white light shot through the cabin.

"I'm sorry boss, this is a habit I developed in the military!"

Bell patted his head embarrassedly and said with a smile.

"I forgot that we brought a flashlight!"

The cabin was quickly inspected, and it was an attic-style building, with a total floor area of only a few tens of square meters. Because no one has lived in it for a long time, the windows and wooden doors are gone, and the inside is very messy.

"Boss, look here!"

Bell said in surprise as he shone his flashlight at the claw marks on the wall.

"It's a grizzly bear's paw print, and this place is frequented by grizzly bears, which is not good news for us!"

"You can't make a fire to cook here, grizzly bears have seven times the sense of smell than hounds, and they can smell carrion from 3.2 kilometers away!"

Bell's love is a little low:

"We're only going to have fast food tonight!"

"It's okay Bell, you forgot about it, I'm a martial artist!"

Wang Zhong patted his strong chest and said with a smile.

"Grizzlies are no match for me!"

"Boss, to be honest, I miss the taste of fast food a little bit, I think you'll like it too!"

Clearly, Bale doesn't have any hope that Wang Zhong can defeat a beast like the Grizzlies on his own.

Most people think that the tiger is the king of the forest, but in fact, the seemingly clumsy grizzly bear has far more combat power than lions, tigers and other fierce beasts.

"Okay!"

Wang Zhong also had a great interest in surviving in the wild, so he didn't insist.

"Because there are often grizzly bears and other predators here, we can't rest on the first floor. We need to go to the second floor attic!"

Bell is worthy of being a professional in the special forces and can always give the most correct opinion.

"Bell, although the wood in the attic is dry, it is not comfortable to sleep at all!"

Wang Zhong said with some complaints.

"Yes, boss, we can use wicker, it is soft and tough, it is a natural mattress!"

Bell walked up with a large bundle of willow branches, spread it flat on the plank, and said with a smile.

"Can we rest now? It's too much of a stretch to move through the mountains!"

Wang Zhong yawned and said with a smile.

"No, boss, we're going to have to make a simple early warning system. The attic is high, but the grizzly bear can still get to us when he stands up!"

Bell climbed down from the attic and made a simple early warning system between the window and the doorway with silk thread and leftover cans.

"Let's give it a try!"

Bell touched the thread, and the can was pulled over, making a crackling sound when it touched the ground.

"Okay! Boss, you can rest! It's very safe here!"

"Thank you, Bell, and you rest early, too!"

Wang Zhong looked at the busy Bell and said sincerely.

"You're welcome, boss, this is what I should do, you invite old cowboys and women to work in parking lots and restaurants, we sincerely thank you!"

Bell smiled shyly and said gratefully.

"That's what I'm supposed to do, because you call me boss!"

Wang Zhong threw Bell a bottle of beer and said with a smile.

"I wish us to find the dragon's lair soon, and we can go home soon, cheers!"

"Cheers!"

Two people with very different identities, in this dilapidated log cabin, drink beer, tell all kinds of past events, and plans for the future.

"Bell, your dream is to be a cook!"

Wang Zhong said with some surprise as he drank the wine.

"Yes! During the special forces training, we ate raw, high-calorie food every day, and sometimes even relied on caterpillars, centipedes, rats and other animals to feed my stomach, and at that time I had a dream, I must become a chef, so that I don't have to eat those disgusting things!"

Bell said with a smile.

"What you say is disgusting!"

Listening to Bell's description of survival in the wild, especially when eating rats and snakes raw, Wang Zhong felt his stomach twitch for a while.

"Luckily, we brought plenty of food!"

Wang Zhong said with some joy.

"BOSS, the first element of survival in the wild is survival, anything that can provide calories for the body is a good thing, even if you are disgusting, eat them, because they can guarantee your life!"

"A qiē is small in front of life!"

Bell said seriously.

"Thank you for a few years of military career, that is the wealth of my life!"

"You're right, life is the most precious!

Wang Zhong looked at Bell and nodded in agreement.

"Bell, how are you cooking? Show me a hand someday!"

Wang Zhong said with a smile.

"BOSS, I found that the Chinese are the best cooking people in the world, and I have gained five pounds in the past few days!"

Bell pinched the fat on his lower abdomen and said with some embarrassment.

"Bell, have a vision! Chinese cooking is definitely the best!"

Wang Zhong said proudly.

"Boss, you're tsundere!"

Bell looked at Wang Zhong's expression and poured cold water.

"I'm proud!"

Wang Zhong said indifferently.

Rumble!

There was a thunderclap, and the long-accumulated torrential rain fell from the sky.

"Let's go down, let's go down, the woods, the grass need to be moisturized!"

Wang Zhong looked at the pouring rain outside the wooden house and said with some joy.

"Boss, this is not good news for us. Animals, like people, need shelter from the rain. This chalet is the best shelter from the rain nearby!"

Bell's face was a little embarrassed.

"Well, we're going to have a lot of friends tonight!"

Wang Zhong said jokingly
