Chapter 766: Swimming with Sea Lions (Addition)
Eating a barbecue and drinking a cold beer on the roof in the sun is already a good meal. The people here have very low requirements for eating, and they have never eaten anything that is too complicated to handle, preferring the original taste. Lindbergh, the handsome man, had failed God's favor for him, had a good face, but a stupid mouth, could not say anything of interest other than his sea lions and surfing, and was generally a very stuffy man.
Yulia, Tan Jing, and Ah Shan quickly lost interest in him except for their instinctive affection at the beginning. In fact, the most important thing for women to look at men is the connotation, simply put, can you give her a lot of fun, and then let them feel at ease, Lindbergh obviously can only be at ease, not fun. Of course, if Hong Tao can have a face like Lindbergh, it will have all the connotation inside and out, but unfortunately God is still fair most of the time.
The three women didn't say anything about Hong Tao's plan to build a pier on the reef, and even if Hong Tao wanted to build a turret here, they had nothing to say. It's all his money, and he can toss it as much as he likes, as long as he doesn't let them suffer and work.
Lindbergh lifted the alarm, but that Carol became Hongtao's heart again. She relied on her good figure, especially her dark wheat-colored skin, which quickly attracted the attention of the three women, so she was... ≌ How to let her skin change to her color became the main topic of the luncheon. Fortunately, Carol does not sell all kinds of skin care products, and did not recommend any creams and creams to them, but she did not let Hong Tao worry, she said that frequent surfing and frequent contact with sea water will change the color of her skin. So Hong Tao has another expense, and all three women need to buy a set of surfing equipment.
"Rush it! When Lao Tzu gets the shark up, you won't even dare to go to the beach!" Hong Tao didn't plan to spend the money at all. He had a way of dissuading their blind enthusiasm for surfing, but he couldn't say it. Educate them with facts.
After eating and drinking, Carol followed the three women into the house to try on clothes and shoes. As long as it's a woman, there's no one who doesn't like this. Lindsay returned to camp for duty, while Lindbergh drove Yulia to the town with Hong Tao to buy tools for shark fishing at night.
Despite the small size of the town, there is a large outdoor shop that sells not only all kinds of surfing equipment, but also all kinds of fishing tackle and shotguns. Here, Hong Tao found palm-sized steel hooks, braided and anti-bite lines for sea fishing, and then bought four sets of heavy-duty trolling rods for trolling.
The final step is to go to the town's only slaughterhouse, where Hong Tao asks Lindbergh to help him find enough animal entrails and blood. For this reason, Lindbergh also went to the town government to issue a purchase certificate, because the sewage and blood were to be destroyed harmlessly, and the people here did not eat Jiuzhuan fat intestines. They don't eat offal soup, let alone blood tofu, these good things are wasted, they think that animal internal organs are the dirtiest and most toxic.
"Oh my God, are you going to make my manor hell!" As Hong Tao and Lindbergh returned to the manor, a swarm of flies came from all sides as soon as the car stopped. These little creatures are very interesting, and you don't usually see where they are hiding, and all of a sudden they appear. There were a lot of them, and soon the six plastic buckets in the trailer bucket were tightly enclosed, and the white buckets all turned black.
"Go, don't talk nonsense. This is my estate, and even you are mine, so my is mine. What's yours is mine, don't be idle, there's your toys in the back seat. Let's surf and get it ourselves!" Hong Tao didn't care about Yulia's protest, he had been generous just now. When buying fishing gear, he bought four sets of surfboards and life jackets, one for each of the three of them, and one for Hong Tao, who also wanted to try surfing.
Surfing this thing Hong Tao really can't play, he gets up from the surfboard quite quickly, but he can only stand up, no matter how he plays steadily, but he can't control the direction of the surfboard. As soon as you change direction, you will plunge into the sea, and then the waves will throw it back along with the surfboard, and then you will have to lie on the surfboard for half a day to row to the more suitable place for the wave.
After playing for a while, Hong Tao got bored, and simply sat on the surfboard as a small boat to chase those sea lions. This beach is a perfect example of the harmony between man and nature, and when you swim, you may be surrounded by a sea lion with two big round eyes, and then it will look at you curiously, just within easy reach. If you ignore it, it will burrow around you, deliberately showing off their swimming skills. If you reach for it, it will put its mouth full of long beards against your hands, which are very prickly and very hard.
The best part is that you throw a ball at them and you'll get a whole bunch of sea lions to grab it with their mouths and poke out half of their bodies to swim on the surface. The other sea lions will do everything possible to snatch the ball away, and in the end, the ball will not know which anxious sea lion will bite it, and then it will be gone. At this time, Hong Tao realized that sea lions can play top balls without training! This thing is their instinct, if you throw them a fish, when they are not too hungry, they will also play with their mouths, throw them in the air and catch them.
According to Lindbergh, sea lions are born with this skill, often driving fish out of the water and then pushing them into the air with their mouths open. In addition, when they have baby sea lions, they will also use this method to push the baby sea lion out of the water for ventilation, because their forelimbs have fully evolved into paddling flippers, and they cannot grasp anything.
Rather than surfing, Hong Tao prefers to compete with these sea lions to see who can swim fast in the water. Of course, he never won, and even though he used his surfboard as a rower, he couldn't outrun these guys who could dance in the water. Not only does he have this hobby, but Tan Jing and Ah Shan, who also can't play surfing, also chase those sea lions behind his ass.
These sea lions are also enough for grandchildren, Hong Tao rowed fast, they swam fast, Hong Tao was bored, they swam to come to the front and poked out their heads, and bared their teeth at Hong Tao, as if they were laughing at Hong Tao, a big stupid fish.
"I can't bear it anymore, Tan Jing, do you want to eat roasted sea lion meat at night? I'll buy a gun in a while, and make them all abrupt!" Hong Tao was about to use his strength to eat, but it was still in vain, he stopped chasing after him, and began to come to Tan Jing and Ah Shan to find comfort.
"You lack virtue, what a fun little guy, why do you want to eat people, you don't have any love at all!" Ah Shan wore a very hot bikini swimsuit, and when she was lying on the surfboard, the meat ball was squeezed out, and it was almost the same as if she didn't wear it.
"Hong Tao, do you think we can raise a few small ones?" Tan Jing also began to make trouble, her swimsuit was not much bigger than Ah Shan, especially the swim trunks, which were the kind of style that could only be seen when the butt was peeled off. It seems that this person's concept also changes with the environment, if this is a domestic beach, she will never dare to wear it like this.
"Raise sea lions, you can figure it out! It's not impossible, you hurry up and earn money, and then I'll build you an aquarium in our yard, and then you can raise them." Hong Tao has always been sarcastic and squeezed on this kind of brain-just problem, and after finishing speaking, he pushed Tan Jing and Ah Shan off the surfboard, and then used up the last bit of strength to row his surfboard to the shore. Now we don't have to worry about anyone drowning, everyone is wearing life jackets, and at most a few sips of bitter seawater.
With Hong Tao taking the lead, he didn't study well, and soon surfing became a chase and fight, three girls and a Carol caught Hong Tao together, and then dug a pit on the beach and buried him in it, exposing a head. No matter how energetic Hong Tao was, with four people sitting on him, he wouldn't be able to escape.
But he was not reconciled, he couldn't stand up and it didn't matter, he took advantage of the girls not paying attention, quietly climbed forward, and the person came out of the sand, but the swimming trunks didn't know when they were rubbed off by the sand, and he didn't know anything, he stood up and was just about to run, only to find that the lower body was a little cold, and it was too late to retract back into the sand pit. In the end, his swimming trunks were snatched away by Yulia again, and he had to hide on a beach chair, covered with a large towel to bask in the sun, and did not dare to go anywhere.
After dinner, they drank some beer in Carroll's camp, and when it was completely dark, Hong Tao, Lindbergh, and Carroll began to carry the plastic buckets that had been drying for a day to the dinghy, which were full of stinking animal entrails and blood. Then batch by batch they were transported to a large ship parked in the bay, which was a Coast Guard patrol boat, which was borrowed by Lindbergh to cooperate in the extermination of sharks.
Because it was a night operation, Hong Tao did not let Tan Jing and the three of them get on the boat, even if they were wearing life jackets, it was very dangerous to fall into the sea at night. Once they are washed up on the reef by the waves, they will be injured, and they will not be able to save their lives, so the three of them should stay on the shore and wait for the good news.
The patrol boat was at least 50 feet long, and there was a twin heavy machine gun on the bow, but it was covered with a rain cloth, and Hong Tao couldn't tell what caliber it was. In addition to Hong Tao, Lindbergh and Carroll, there were three Coast Guard soldiers, but they were not wearing military uniforms or weapons. Lindbergh knew them well, and they laughed and talked as if two of them were his neighbors or classmates. Carol, on the other hand, didn't pay much attention to them, just said hello, and sat down on the side of the boat by herself, looking at the sea in a daze.
Although Hong Tao has a way to fish for sharks, he doesn't know where the sharks are, and even if he does, it's useless, after the sky is dark, the sea and the sky are the same color, and he can't even find the big cliff of Seal Rock. But Lindbergh and the Coast Guard soldiers were not affected by the darkness, and the patrol boats were still fast and not afraid to hit the reef. About ten minutes later, Lindbergh told the waves that it was time to start, and that this is the most active area of the bay for sharks. (To be continued......)
