1393.Biting Alocasia Lily (4/5)

Originally, kauri trees lived in large numbers in the North Island, but because of their versatility and versatility, they were migrated by Austronesians. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

However, the tree has a long growth cycle, so even after transplanting, there are still few traces of tall kauri trees in the South Island.

The kauri in the castle has only grown for more than 100 years, and for many trees, this can already grow into a towering tree, but the kauri only grows to a height of more than 10 meters.

However, this has become one of the reasons why kauri trees are suitable for building wooden houses, because the trees grow slowly, so there is little damage to the wooden houses built on the platform, otherwise the trees will grow too fast and the wooden houses will be torn apart.

There were not many kauri trees in the outer courtyard, more than 60 trees in total, growing lush and tall, Wang Bo looked over and thought about it, and felt that it was really a good idea to build a wooden house on it.

He said to Terrence, "Thank you for the reminder, but I want to build the cabin myself, so please help me with some tools and materials." ā€

Terrence said happily, "That's all right, sir, you'll be satisfied." ā€

It is not so simple to build a tree house on kauri, and it is very helpless, and the New Zealand Department of Environment and Animal and Plant Protection have regulations on this: no felling and pruning require approval.

The reason why there are such strict regulations is naturally that there are not many kauri trees in New Zealand now.

Originally, when the Maori first came to New Zealand, there were 1.2 million hectares of kauri, but this tree has many functions, and it is not only loved by Maori, but also by European colonizers when they arrived in New Zealand in the 18th century.

The Maori used the tree mainly for carving and building houses, as they were small and did not need much kauri to build houses.

But the newcomers realized that kauri trunks were an ideal material for masts, so they harvested them in large quantities, and later discovered that gums could be used to produce resin and varnish, so they harvested them even more intensively.

Until the early 20th century, New Zealanders continued to cut down kauri forests for timber for war resources and civilian building materials.

And after the deforestation, the area that was originally woodland was no longer planted with trees and was opened up as farms, which led to the serious destruction of kauri in New Zealand.

After centuries of frenzied deforestation of kauri resources, New Zealanders finally realised late in the last century that this precious, slow-growing species could no longer be plundered.

Since then, New Zealand has vigorously protected the tree, including it as a protected tree species and no longer developing it.

Because the kauri grow very tall, protecting them is also protecting a small ecosystem, because many other plants grow under the kauri, and they live in symbiosis with the kauri.

New Zealand's Department of Environmental Protection has stipulated that all kauri forests are protected and no one or organisation can exploit them.

Building a tree house on a kauri tree is considered a means of development, so to start construction on it, you need to get approval from the Ministry of Environmental Protection.

Fortunately, Sunset Town is now unique in New Zealand, with many rare flora, fauna and birds in the territory, and the Ministry of Environmental Protection has a good feeling for Wang Bo, so it approved his application to build a tree house on the kauri at home.

However, there is a restriction on this application, that is, if the kauri dies as a result of building a treehouse, Wang Bo has to accept a fine to pay for the loss.

Wang Bo is not afraid of this, he just built a small house on a tree, how could he kill such a sturdy tree?

But after looking at the blueprints that Terrence handed him, he gasped: Nima, is this going to build a treehouse? It's about creating a villa in the sky, right?

In the drawings, there are four kauri trees supporting the construction of the house, and around the four trees will be a house with twenty rooms, with elevators and steps, and he looked at a pool above and exclaimed, "What is this?" ā€

"An observation deck." Terrence replied.

Wang Bo breathed a sigh of relief: "I see, I thought it was a swimming pool." ā€

"Oh, the pool is here." Terrence said, pointing to the drawings.

The little Lori next to her applauded happily after hearing this: "The high-altitude swimming pool, it's so good." ā€

Wang Bo glared at her, and then said with a look of horror: "Is there really a swimming pool to be built on the tree?" You're kidding me, aren't you? ā€

"Yes, I'll tease you." Terrence laughed, "That's a room. ā€

Little Lori sighed in disappointment: "Alas, it's so boring." ā€

When she learned that she was going to build a tree house, she was much more energetic than Wang Bo, and she must come to help.

Terrence's drawings didn't work, and Wang Bo didn't want to build such a complex treehouse, but it was also useful, that is, the drawings already explained how to lay the foundation, and how to use the trunks and branches of the trees to provide a strong enough foundation.

Building a solid foundation on a tree requires professional construction workers to do it, and Wang Bo and others can't do it.

With his permission, Terrence arranged for a team of five people to climb the tree and start building, and when the foundation was laid, Wang Bo could lead people to build a house on it.

Finally free, Lao Wang had to take advantage of this time to rest.

Eva had to go to work, so he was in charge of taking the doll and accompanying the doll and the furry children to play on the lawn outside the villa.

In the summer, the rain was strong, and the lawn grew a little chaotic, so Wang Bo thought about it and decided to drive the lawn mower himself.

There was nothing dangerous on the lawn, but there were many bugs, so he carried the doll to the flowerbed, let the queen and princess look at the doll, and drove himself to start mowing the grass.

As he was driving slowly down the lawn, the Queen's shouts suddenly rang out, and the doll opened its mouth and began to cry.

Wang Bo hurriedly stopped and ran over, picked up the little girl and asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong, what's wrong?" ā€

The little girl cried with her eyes closed and her mouth open, dragging a white flower in her hand, and she didn't know why she was crying so sadly.

At first, Lao Wang thought that she had been bitten by something, but the little girl had no wounds on her skin, and the queen and princess did not react, if there were bugs, they would not be so quiet.

The little doll was still crying, he thought about it for a while, maybe this girl was just a child, so he coaxed it.

But it was useless for him to coax, and the little girl began to vomit.

Seeing this, he was anxious, and quickly called Eva and asked her to come back and have a look.

Eva, who never gets angry with him, will be anxious and shout: "I've only been away for a morning, and that's it for my daughter?" ā€

Wang Bo said helplessly: "I don't know what's going on." ā€

Eva glanced at snatching the flower out of the little girl's hand, and said angrily, "Why did you let her get close to Alocasia?!" ā€

Wang Bo was surprised and asked, "Alocasia lily?" What kind of flower is this? What's wrong, is it toxic? ā€

"You're mad at me." Eva stomped her foot in hatred.
