Chapter 17: When the Plan is in Progress
In the United States, the size and prosperity of a city are not actually calculated according to the area and population occupied by the city.
This can be seen from watching NBA games, Phoenix, where the Suns are located, ranks sixth in terms of population in the United States, but he is not a big city, San Antonio, where the Spurs are located, ranks ninth, and it is not a big city, but one of the representatives of small ball cities, including Detroit ranked tenth, Indianapolis ranked twelfth, Seattle twenty-one, Denver twenty-two, etc., these places are not big ball cities, direct big ball cities, big cities, are calculated according to the metropolitan area.
In the United States, it can be rated as a metropolitan area, there are a total of ten places, the largest is naturally New York, the whole territory of New York State where the Big Apple is located, plus Long Island and Northern New Jersey, which are all within the scope of the New York metropolitan area.
Secondly, there is the Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Santa Ana metropolitan areas centered on various cedars.
Chicago and Reber, Joolet Metropolitan Area, Washington Plus Arlington, Alexandria Metropolitan Area.
The Houston, Sugar City, Bayton metropolitan areas, Dallas, Worthburg, Arlington metropolitan areas, Philadelphia, Camden, Wilmington metropolitan areas, San Francisco, Oakland, Fremont metropolitan areas, Atlanta, Sandy Springs, Marietta metropolitan areas, and finally, Boston, Cambridge, Quincy metropolitan areas.
In fact, speaking of Boston, the real Boston area is very small, and its territory is probably the smallest of all the big cities.
After all, the city was founded by European colonists when they first arrived in the United States.
From the original point of view, Boston was built quite well, but from the current point of view, the buildings in the Boston metropolitan area are really short and small, and the roads are also very crowded, traffic jams or something, which is not a rare thing in Boston.
There are even times when it is even more blocked than in the imperial capital, and such things are not very common in the United States.
Perhaps everyone is also deliberately trying to find some face for Boston, so in the vicinity of Boston, Winthrop, Revere, Chelsea, Avery, Somerville, Cambridge, Watertown, Newton, Brookland, Needham, Dayham, Canton, Milton and Quincy are all considered part of Greater Boston, in other words, like those districts of the current Chinese city.
The real urban area is only a little bit of the city center, except for the urban area, the other districts are added later.
Therefore, these county-level places are also the existence of the later additions.
Winthrop, where Jiang Hai lives now, is such an existence, let's say he's Boston, but in fact, strictly speaking, it's not Boston, so why not Boston? It's Boston, and everyone has their own opinions.
After determining the first thing to do, during the day the next day, Jiang Haihe and his first and only subordinate, Robbins Garcia, took a good turn around the manor.
I took an inventory, what can be used now, and what is still missing.
At present, there are not many things in this manor, but there are a lot of less, there are a total of four all-terrain cars, that is, four-wheeled motorcycles, this car is something that has been bought for nearly ten years, and the periphery is the kind that is not protected, it is very dangerous, and it can be ridden now, this is also a miracle, when Jiang Hai wants to buy a car in the future, these things are also indispensable.
He learned about it, such a full-ground car, with the current price of the new car, not too bad, it has to cost twenty or thirty thousand, here is talking about the American knife, in the United States you can't spend soft sister coins, right?
In addition to these four all-terrain cars, a grass car, it can still be used at present, but it needs to be repaired and replaced with some accessories, but in Jiang Hai's opinion, it is better to replace it directly.
Other large vehicles, a large agricultural torlader, which was left by the former rich man, for the purpose of leveling the land, for sowing or something, he bought this estate, not purely for fun, he also considered, if the market for beef is not good, then he will grow wheat and vegetables, but unfortunately before planting, it went bankrupt.
So this thing, although I bought it ten years ago, is still relatively new, and I don't need to change it for the time being.
The other cowsheds and stables were all built very sturdy, and this time when the villa was repaired, Louis also asked the workers to use the remaining materials to strengthen these two places, and now only some people need to come and clean and repair them.
As for fishery, Robbins didn't know much about it, while Jiang Hai took advantage of the lunch break to go to the sea.
He could breathe freely underwater, so he didn't have to think about it, but he didn't dare to go too far.
After all, there are a lot of dangers underwater, not to mention those sharks, killer whales and the like, just some poisonous jellyfish, sea snakes and the like, it is enough for him to drink a pot, Jiang Hai doesn't know if his current tattoo is useless for these guys, but at least, he feels that he has almost no chance of winning against a shark a few meters long underwater.
It's not possible unless you move up a little higher.
So he didn't swim too far, but after going into the water, Jiang Hai was still very pleased, his fishing ground was a private fishing ground, and in the original seven years, it belonged to the third largest auction house in the world, this auction house has nothing else, that is, there are many lawyers, and he is very careful, so over the years, the natural environment in Jiang Hai's fishing ground is very well protected.
All of a sudden, Jiang Hai saw a lot of corals nearby, although they were not connected into a large area, but it was also a very good scene, it seemed that there was no need to plant corals in the future, just need to protect it, in the coral reef, there were a lot of fish worn around, into Jiang Hai's eyes, there were a lot of fish he knew, for example, Robbins always made cod for him at night, this cod is not the same as what is eaten in China, the fish in the Atlantic, originally larger than the Pacific Ocean.
Especially in this place that has been protected for seven years, there are thousands of Atlantic cod that have entered Jiang Hai's eyes, divided into several populations and swimming back and forth in the middle and upper layers of the ocean, the largest of which is nearly two meters long, which is really amazing.
In addition to the large cod, there are also many herrings, which are also an economic fish, but they are much smaller and have only one cartilage, which Europeans like to eat and is also very popular in the United States.
In addition to these fish, there are a lot of saltwater fish, on the beach below, there are a lot of flounder, that is, flounder, there are many sea bass swimming in the middle and upper layers, a very large number of barracuda, sea spinning, stone head, this thing is also yellow croaker, but the skin on the body is not yellow, but red, called red totoaba fish, also called strait bass, and gray black stone head, all here.
In addition, there are many marine fish, groupers, sea breams, and in some places inshore, there are some migratory fish.
For example, Damaha, and Pacific salmon, also known as the legendary three-striped fish, and so on.
However, what really made Jiang Hai take a fancy was not these, but those sea cucumbers, sea crabs, and those big lobsters on the seabed, Jiang Hai checked when he came, and the lobsters here in Boston are known as the first in the world.
The lobster here is called Boston lobster, also known as Maine lobster, and the taste is said to be quite good, but Jiang Hai has never eaten it, and just as he was about to catch two to satisfy his hunger, his body couldn't help but be ......
With these sea objects, there is naturally the existence of preying on these things, such as sharks, what Jiang Hai sees now is a shark that is about three meters long, he doesn't know what type it is, he was stunned, and then swam up.
Although he returned empty-handed, he was quite happy at this time, and he was not worried about eating and drinking this time.
After happily returning to the villa and taking a turn, Jiang Hai took Robbins' old pickup truck and went to Winthrop.
If you want to hire someone, naturally it is useless to post a notice here, and you have to go to the town to find it.
Winthrop is located in the easternmost part of Boston, separated by General Edward Lawrence Logan International Airport.
Because it's a bit far away, and it's mostly home to people running family farms and stuff, it's not a big town, and those who work in Boston prefer to live around it, like Chelsea, Cambridge, Somerville, and so on.
If this kind of terrain is in the west, it may be nice to have a few thousand people in the town, but after all, this is next to the east of Europe, and the towns in the east have a characteristic, there are more people than in the west.
Along the way, Robbins was also introducing Winthrop to Jiang Hai, this town has a total of nearly 30,000 people, which is a small city, in the town, everything is very complete, there are dozens of large supermarkets, car dealerships, gun shops, boat yards...... Almost everything Jiang Hai wants to buy is bought here, so there is no need to rush to Boston to buy it.
As he spoke, Robbins took Jiang Hai to the door of a bar called Cowboy Song.
"Alright, boss, it's time to get off." Parking the car, Robbins said to Jiang Hai with a smile on his face.
"Okay." With that, Jiang Hai jumped out of the pickup truck and looked at the bar in front of him.
This bar, it looks like it has been around for a long time, the whole bar has only one floor, the overall structure is wooden, and above the gate in the middle, there is a sign made of wood, the signboard has been smoked very black, if it weren't for the colored lights around, Jiang Hai couldn't see what was written on it, but because of the existence of colored lights, this bar is even more dilapidated.
