"Let's go, let's go down and take a look, everyone take out the tools prepared before, remember, only scrape a layer of ash on it, try not to bring too much sand into it, so that you can load a little more, we can mix and stir the sand after we go back, okay, let's do it!"

Lin Quan explained, and then began to move with everyone, while Roy took a few guards, holding guns, standing around on guard, the security situation here is actually not particularly optimistic, although last year the government army and the French army joined forces to carry out a series of sweeping activities in the north, clearing and driving away a lot of horse thieves, but in this land, horse thieves are like the wind without a trace, as long as they are not completely killed, they may come back at any time!

Therefore, the main security enemies of the farm are these horse thieves, and there are also some militants who have escaped from neighboring Libya from the north, but because they have to cross the vast Sahara Desert, there are very few people who can escape to the south, at least Lin Quan has never met such a person in more than a year here!

The workers took out one large plastic bag after another, plucked the plaster on the riverbed with a shovel, put it into the plastic bag and then loaded it and transported it away. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But it's okay now, it's just one more formality!

Although the Tailu River is a monsoon river, after all, it still has water for a long time of the year, so on both sides of the river, these sea buckthorns grow, and there are also remember shrubs, which are not the kind of shrubs of the tropical rainforest, but the kind of shrubs that resemble the coniferous forest.

Because of the harsh environment, the appearance of plants in desert areas is somewhat different from ordinary plants.

For example, succulent plants like cacti, which have thick leaves and are not seasonally defoliated, can reduce a lot of wasted energy, and the most important thing is water.

The cactus has thick leaves, and there are fewer stomata on it, and the inside is not completely solid, so it is more difficult for water to evaporate, so they can survive tenaciously in the desert.

On the other hand, because cacti grow slowly, and they don't shed their leaves, the nutrients on their bodies are lost more slowly, and those withered and aging leaves are just below them, and as they grow, they gradually become their roots, and then the nutrients inside will be reabsorbed and utilized.

And other plants are basically similar to cacti, like sea buckthorn, their leaves are small, similar to the kind of coniferous forest, and the plants have sharp thorns on their bodies to prevent them from being eaten by other herbivores, after all, animals like to eat young shoots, and the growth of young shoots needs to consume a lot of nutrients from plants, so for plants, what they have to try to avoid is being eaten by animals, so they will grow thorns to protect themselves.

The leaves of sea buckthorn trees are not as thick as cacti, but their root system is very deep, often looking less than two meters high on the ground, sometimes even less than one meter high, their root system can be tens of meters long, and the area is very wide, just to find water.

For the plants that grow along the Taylu River, because the Telu River has a flow of water for a period of the year, it is easier for them to find water, and when there is plenty of water, they grow faster, so they appear to be taller than the plants in other areas.

But from here, when you go north, you reach the heart of the Sahara Desert, where the climate is so arid that even cacti can't survive in desert areas.

Lin Quan was busy for a while, and his waist was a little unbearable, it seemed that the battle situation at night before was too intense, which affected his combat effectiveness during the day.

He stretched, walked up the embankment of the river, and looked out into the heart of the desert.

"Boss, have one?"

Roy was not far from him, flattering him with a cigarette.

Lin Quan glanced at it and found that it was actually a box of Marlboro cigarettes, this cigarette seemed to be smoked only by Zhao Cheng, Lin Quan was not a smoker, and the social cigarette he brought with him was only from the Yellow Crane Tower, the price seemed to be 30 yuan per box, and a box could be used for several months!

"I don't smoke, you can keep it for yourself!"

Lin Quan waved his hand and glanced at Roy, this guy seemed to have grown a lot taller after coming to the farm, compared to the thin and dark appearance when he first came, he looked a lot taller now.

I have to say that the genes of black people are good, it is difficult for black people to gain weight when they are young, and when they are fat, their muscles are obvious, especially the black people in Africa, most of the black people in North Africa believe in Islam, which also means that they can't drink, and if they don't drink, they will have one less beer belly, and they don't eat as fat as black Americans, so they are all skinny.

And after Roy came to Lin Quan's farm for a year, he is now much stronger, and his body is full of tendon meat, and he looks very powerful.

Lin Quan suddenly thought of his age, as if Roy was still a minor child, he said he was seventeen years old before, but Zhao Cheng said that he was only sixteen years old, how old was he?

"Roy, do you have a good relationship?"

Lin Quan casually took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.

Green Arrow chewing gum doesn't seem to be very expensive in China, as long as 1 yuan a piece, there are five sticks in a piece, a total of two cents a piece, and the price is acceptable.

However, on the African side, this thing is more expensive, one costs 1,000 CFA francs, which is almost 3.3, which is several times more expensive than in China!

But although it is a little more expensive, but it is not too outrageous, Lin Quan likes to have one when he is fine, and he thinks about the problem while chewing, after the masseter muscle of the head is activated, it will drive the blood circulation of the head, which will make people's thinking more sensitive, although I don't know if there is a scientific basis for this statement, but after Lin Quan tried it, he felt that the effect was not bad!

So this habit was gradually formed.

Roy saw Lin Quan chewing gum again, smoked his cigarette three or two times, threw it on the ground, and looked at Lin Quan with a blank eye.

"Why? Do you want it too?"

Lin Quan was a little funny in his heart, Zhao Cheng's habit of smoking was to light a cigarette, smell it, and not be in a hurry to smoke.

And after Roy followed Zhao Cheng for a long time, he gradually learned his habit, he usually smoked a cigarette for several minutes, and at this time he was probably thinking about his chewing gum, so it was solved in more than ten seconds.

"Well, Captain Zhao said, chewing gum is good for teeth!"

Roy said with a smile!
