Chapter 37 The Strategy for the Great Development of the North
After returning from the hospital, Li Sheng behaved lazy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
On this day, the sun was shining. But that's not necessarily a good thing.
There is plenty of water vapor in the rainforest, and the strong sun will make the air more vapour, making it more likely that strong convective weather will occur.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, a thunderstorm came.
The pouring rain plunged the whole world into darkness, and going out became a problem. Li Sheng could only stay in the wooden house. He's not alone, though.
Little Chahi sat on the chair next to her, kicking her dangling calves, and eating the small pastries that Li Sheng made especially for her.
The little girl is very quiet, she likes to stick to Li Sheng, because Li Sheng always gives her good food. In her mind, Daddy, who buys her beautiful clothes and toys, and Li Sheng, who makes her snacks, are the best people.
Li Sheng was not in a daze, but thinking about what he had said to Thomas in the jungle. In fact, he thought about it when he was in the hospital. And made a decision, he planned to go back to Huaxia, and even entrusted a travel agency to apply for a visa. It's just that some of these details need to be carefully considered. He felt that he needed to communicate with Zhang Feng and them about these things.
The vast area of the jungle did not mean anything to him. There he received almost nothing. And this land is projected on a map of an area of 15,000 square kilometers. It may be larger if calculated by surface area because there are large areas of hills there.
He also knows the laws of Brazil. According to the latest law, the tax on timber exports is high, the profit is not very high, and it may even be a loss. In addition, Brazil has a new law that requires private forests to maintain 80% of the reserved area, which cannot be cut down arbitrarily.
This is something that many people don't follow. But Li Sheng didn't want to violate it. His woodland is probably one of the largest private forests in Brazil, and the country's environmental protection agency and international green organizations may have been keeping an eye on it.
But the land had been heavily deforested before the law was announced. Otherwise, if he had followed that clause, he would have to restore even 5,000 square kilometers of forest.
That, of course, is impossible. The law of any country applies one principle: res past.
Therefore, the title deed in his hand indicated that there were only 15,000 square kilometers of forest land, and the rest was wasteland.
Since so much forest has been cut down before the law is enacted, the land that has been cut down can no longer be considered a forest area.
If this principle is followed, he should also be able to cut down 3,000 square kilometers of forest.
He's just thinking about going under the knife right now.
In the northern part of his land, there are large hilly areas. But those areas are deep in the forest, and it is not easy to develop, and a road needs to be opened.
Speaking of which, his farm also needs to build some hard-bottom roads. Otherwise, during the rainy season, the vehicle can hardly walk. There is no need to think about it before. But not right now.
Now he has a large farm, and both the grain and cattle that are grown need to be transported. These tasks cannot be completely avoided by the rainy season. Therefore, the necessary hardened roads must be built.
He stared at the layout of the farm and felt that he needed a few hardened roads in the farming area, but not in the pastoral area, just a road to transport the cattle to the docks.
As for the hilly area, it may be necessary to open a passage in the forest to get out.
He had a detailed map of the wooded area, and he compared it and found that the road needed to be carved out for at least twenty or thirty kilometers in the wooded area.
This is the remote Amazon region, and it can be much more expensive to build a road here than in other areas. After all, it is far from the production of raw materials, and it is time-consuming and laborious to build roads. But he should have enough money.
However, it is the rainy season, and it is impossible to build roads. Even if he decides, he will not be able to repair it until the dry season. And only half a year is suitable for road construction.
This aspect also needs to be considered. At the very least, you need to find a company that is productive enough.
"Lee, you eat. Chahi suddenly held up a jujube cake in his chubby little hand, wanting to bring it to his mouth.
Li Sheng was interrupted by her, and only then did he find that a small plate of more than 20 pieces of red date cake was gone, and only this small piece in the little girl's hand remained. The little guy's mouth was full of snacks, and his eyes were full of reluctance.
"God, you've eaten it all. Li Sheng smiled and hugged her to his lap and sat down. "Heavy again. The little belly is bulging. He said and gently pinched her little belly.
"Delicious. Chahi was full. Chahi giggled and twisted to avoid Li Sheng's hand. "Lee, you eat too. ”
Li Sheng didn't refuse, lowered his head and bit the snack in her hand, and Chaos swallowed it before saying, "Cha Xi is going to become a little chubby girl." ”
The little guy is only a little over four years old now, and children are already prone to obesity, and during this time, the little guy eats well every day. Li Sheng often makes her some snacks to eat. It's been less than a month, and the little guy's originally sharp little face has begun to become fleshy.
Chahi twisted his body and said in Latin, which was not very proficient: "Chahi, not fat." Daddy said, Chahi is beautiful!"
Li Sheng saw that the rain outside was light and it was dark, and said, "I'll send you home." If it was normal, he might have left the little one to eat at his own house. But now the little one may not be able to eat much at night. And even if she could eat it, Li Sheng didn't want her to eat it anymore. It's not good for small children to eat too much.
He carried Chai along the eaves to Anthony's cabin.
Anthony was cooking when he saw Li Sheng coming back with his adopted daughter in his arms: "Li, Chahi didn't bother you." ”
"Chahi is very well-behaved. Li Sheng smiled and put Chahi down.
After the little guy got off the ground, he trotted and hugged Anthony's retreat, and said aggrievedly: "Chash is very well-behaved." Daddy, really. ”
Anthony laughed, picked her up, kissed her and said, "Daddy knows that Chahi is a good boy." The best kids. ”
Li Sheng watched the two fathers and daughters playing, and said to Anthony with a smile: "I didn't take a good look at her, she ate a whole plate of pastries." There may be little appetite for dinner. ”
"Oh my God. Am I holding a piglet?" Anthony said with a laugh as he teased his daughter. "Thank you, Lee. Chahi loves to be with you. ”
"The little one was lovely and I enjoyed spending time with her. She always makes all the difference. ”
"If you really like children, you shouldn't send Tia back. Anthony teased.
Li Sheng rolled his eyes and said, "Tia is almost twelve years old, okay? And she has a family." ”
"It turns out that you prefer four or five-year-old girls. Looks like I won't be able to leave Chasi alone in the future. Anthony laughed and joked. "Well, I'm kidding. ”
Tia is the girl that Li Sheng and Thomas brought back when they went into the jungle and encountered the natives. After a few days of treatment in the hospital, Li Sheng and Thomas returned to the farm for a few days of observation, and then Li Sheng and Thomas sent the girl home. The two sides don't understand each other's language, and they don't know what the other party is talking about. But I can still know the girl's name.
When sending the girl back, Li Sheng and Thomas did not contact the natives, sending Tia to the vicinity of the place where they had encountered the natives, and then quietly followed Tia until she found her kindred.
Li Sheng smiled: "Is there anything to be busy with tomorrow morning?"
"There was no particular rush. Is there anything you want me to do?"
"Tomorrow we'll have a meeting. Li Sheng plans to say what he thinks. See what they have to say about these old Amazonian people.
"Okay, what time is it?"
"Eight o'clock. ”
"What is it about?" asked Anthony after a pause.
"I plan to develop a hill in the jungle. In addition, I plan to build a road on the farm and see if you have any good suggestions. ”
Anthony listened and said seriously: "I don't know if the development of the hills is a good thing or a bad thing. But I'm in favor of building roads. I'll think about it and give some advice tomorrow. ”
Li Sheng smiled and said, "Then I won't disturb you and Chahi's dinner time." ”
"Hey, why don't you eat together? ”
Li Sheng shook his head and said, "Thank you, next time." "They're all pot-bellied, and Anthony certainly doesn't prepare much food. If he stays, there may not be enough for both of them.
