Sophie immediately understood that the so-called time-to-time operation was basically a euphemism for overpaying the watchman a considerable amount of money. Obviously, he didn't have enough liquidity in his hands, but he handled this matter with a very high profile. It can be said that the parliament understands the watchman's financial predicament and helps in a low-key way, or it can be regarded as a kind of favor. Sophie has no objection to this.

"Ivy" Monica and "Pines" Bergkamp will be responsible for formulating the development plan with some experts, while Gu Mingyuan will fly to Brazil under the protection of the druids "Ants" and "Soldier Bees" belonging to the two watchmen to fully take over those lands, of course, nominally only saying that he will arrange two bodyguards for him, and he is not ready to use his druid identity to scare him for the time being. The law and order in Brazil is quite poor, and there are no reliable bodyguards, so it is strange to go there to receive such a large land with countless people eyeing it, and not to be assassinated.

After reaching an agreement, Zhang Ling immediately transferred $28 million in cash to Sophie's account, and as for the stocks, he notified an investment adviser in New York about the transfer. Sophie is ready to go and complete the closing.

And the day after they reached an agreement, four Druids of the Watchmen came to Shanghai one after another. Two of them came to protect Gu Mingyuan as he went to Brazil, while the other two "Hermit Crab" Soray and "Spider" Gonzalez joined the combat unit directly under the Operations Department. The addition of Gonzalez has added another expert in the combat unit of the Operations Division to Gustav who is good at using poisons. Coincidentally, Gonzalez "Spider" is also a killer. In addition, there is also a "shrimp" Gibson, who went to Hawaii to report to the marine division. The return of the Watchmen, while it does take time to digest, brings considerable practical benefits to the Council.

For several days, Zhang Ling was immersed in the fact that he had decided on a 12,000-square-kilometer land deal so casually. Although a young girl like her has a small reputation in investing, it is all about using various methods to analyze those invisible and intangible figures. The stocks I had previously handled, although they were worth a lot, were not surprisingly large. Compared to those things, 12,000 square kilometers of land is a big deal. Such an area is much larger than the territory of some countries in the world. In the non-destructive development of such a vast area. Perhaps, it can also create a case of harmony between man and nature, and create a country that seems to only appear in dreams, which makes Zhang Ling not calm down for a long time.

Gu Mingyuan didn't feel so much, he could see at a glance that the two bodyguards assigned to him were all extraordinary guys. Moreover, they are obviously all bold characters who have killed a lot of people. The alertness that always exudes and the accurate judgment of the situation around them. Even the super superb driving skills show the extraordinaryness of the two as bodyguards. No need to explain. Gu Mingyuan also understands that this time he went to Brazil to receive the land, although he has the full cooperation of the other party, he is afraid that it will be somewhat thrilling.

But Gu Mingyuan's mind moved quickly, and he asked Zuo Lin to quietly release the news that he had purchased a large piece of land. The first thing that impressed me was the Ouyang family, who has rich experience in plantation management in Southeast Asia. Ouyang Yang begged for a long time with a half-truth on his face, and Zuo Lin finally reluctantly agreed that the Ouyang family could intervene.

He took out a few plots of land, all of which were the kind of isolated rainforests that had been cut down and developed around them, and handed them a series of non-destructive development plans to Ouyang Yang for them to implement by themselves. These non-developmental destruction schemes are characterized by the fact that there are few places that require human intervention, but the added value generated is high. For those who do not understand nature, simple cultivation may be the only way of production they can understand, but for the druids, nature is full of treasures, not only for the druids, but also for the entire human society. Local animals don't like to eat rare fruits, and they don't even touch them when they don't have anything to eat, but for humans, they may be delicious banquet treasures. As for the various medicinal herbs, spices, and mushrooms hidden in the rainforest, if you take them in a reasonable proportion, they will not affect the growth of plants and animals at all. These isolated rainforests will be the last habitat for nearby animals that have lost their homes. In this regard, Zuo Lin's statement is also very clear. It is not allowed to actively attack animals, never meddle in the competition in nature, and never treat animals that are injured in their own kind or natural enemies. Only by maintaining the appearance of nature itself, maintaining the fighting and wild nature, can the survival of this nature be meaningful.

Although the Lu family in Hong Kong has no experience in plantations, they have started to use their brains to transport and sell rainforest products. The U.S. East Coast Hsu family is also interested in this. Later, Zuo Lin simply gathered people from several major families, held a meeting, and everyone balanced their interests, and Zuo Lin packaged his business in rainforest management to establish the first subsidiary of Jiongshi Biotechnology. In this subsidiary, Zuo Lin's shareholding was reduced to 7 percent, and the cooperation of several major families responsible for all peripheral affairs accounted for 3 percent.

Gu Mingyuan has to deal with several kilograms of documents almost every day, but fortunately, most of the business does not require him to go to the place where the land he receives is located, as long as he is in several big cities, in law firms, notary offices and other places to hand over clearly, and run the relevant government departments to register and file. Although Gu Mingyuan did not want to attract anyone's attention, a large number of transferred land still made him, a handsome and gentle Chinese, attract the attention of some local people in Brazil.

Some entertainment is indispensable, although he knows that many of the real estate entrusted by Gu Mingyuan are targeted, but although Gu Mingyuan is gentle, he handles the key issues very well. For some of the guys who come to make trouble, we will not tolerate it when it is time to be ruthless. He used to be a lawyer by profession, and he knew that in such a place, he had to pay attention to the spirit of the law everywhere, and he would not be able to do anything when he came to Brazil. However, Gu Mingyuan's faintly revealed high value-added non-destructive development of the rainforest made him a guest at many high-end banquets. Gu Mingyuan understands the environmental protection propositions of Zuo Lin and others, and taking over so much land is based on environmental considerations far more than profits. Otherwise, it would not have almost drained the company's last liquidity in this transaction. A lot of people who cut down rainforests for development are just doing it for money, and they can make more money, and they don't have to be scolded by local or international environmental groups all day long, which is very attractive.

If you want to get something out of Gu Mingyuan's mouth, it's impossible. Gu Mingyuan also admitted frankly that he was just an agent who was responsible for the handover of the land. The real big landlords have other people, and the specific development will be carried out gradually. But Gu Mingyuan faintly revealed another meaning, that is, he likes Brazil a lot, and maybe he will continue to preside over the development of the rainforest in the future. Although the transaction price of the land is not publicly announced, the local tycoons have their own valuation of the land. The strength of the Jiongshi creatures that can eat so much land at one time has been expanded many times in their imagination, and being able to represent such a large number of land transactions for such a company, Gu Mingyuan's aura has also gathered a lot.

So, in South America, which is a bit romantic, Gu Mingyuan, a bachelor with strong blood, does not refuse to have different beauties in his bed every night. In the case of sufficient choice, the appearance and figure can naturally be picky, as long as it is not young enough to feel guilty, old enough to feel that there is a generation gap, as long as it is not the daughters or nieces of some rich people or relatives of the lower generation who will not get rid of the entanglement in the future, nor those who are too famous supermodels or celebrity women, Gu Mingyuan almost does not refuse.

With the help of the people sent by several major families, the development work that has been carried out one after another has also been carried out smoothly. Monica "Ivy" and Bergkamp "The Pines" are veteran druids after all. Basically, Gu Mingyuan on the front foot has just completed the handover procedures, and they will go to the ground on the back foot, and after a little check on the situation in the rainforest, they can quickly make plans according to local conditions, find out the products that can be developed, estimate the annual output, and allocate appropriate human resources. I had to charter a helicopter for the two of them to keep up with the work of these two crazy guys.

Behind Monica and Bergkamp, attendants, assistants sent by the Chinese family, local employees and environmental volunteers quickly began to implement this non-destructive plan. Boxes of fruits, herbs, and spices were shipped to the big cities, to gourmets and travelers, and some were sent back to Shanghai. No matter when these development results can recover the huge amount of money invested by Zuo Lin, at least get something for Zuo Lin to see, at least there is movement to throw the money down. Volunteers from environmental groups quickly spread the word about this non-destructive form of development, and many people began to pay attention to it. The druids, the acolytes, who had hoped that this non-destructive method would spread, were "enthusiastic" in receiving and guiding those who came to inquire.

On the one hand, there is the busy paperwork in the city, and on the other hand, the same busy and fruitful field work, and the various situations that come one after another make Zuo Lin feel very helpless. To be honest, he doesn't feel much about money, and he is happy to be able to do something to his part. But if you want to do more, money is so important as an indispensable tool. The paradox between these is really torturous.

"Let's go for a walk. Looking at the invitation letter and schedule sent by Nike, which finally arrived, Zuo Lin thought so.
