1241.The Queen of the Ants (part 2/5)
As he lived in the castle for more time, Wang Bo also felt this way. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The castle is majestic and quaint, but it is too unmodern.
Except for the bedrooms, the floor had no floor or carpet, it was dry marble, and the ceiling was not decorated, just empty and hung in the air.
Now the castle can be lived, but as Potter said, it's too wasteful to live in.
It's like a car with a W12-cylinder engine, but its body is only an empty shell, which is a waste of resources for this car.
So the next day, Wang Bo began to look at the renovation drawings that Wendy had designed for the castle.
This renovation is a major project and may take a year to complete, because there are many changes to the building, not only renovations.
For example, the castle does not have a garage, and parking is usually in the inner and outer courtyards, but Porter thinks that the outer courtyard can be converted into a golf course and garden area, which is too wasteful to be used for parking.
In this way, he designed an underground parking lot halfway up the mountain, hollowing out the belly of the mountain.
This parking lot extends back into Lake Hawea, where a private pier can be built at the entrance, uniting the city of Mountain and Lake.
Wang Bo was tempted after seeing the 3D design drawings, and there was also a new children's playroom in the castle, which was a room he urgently needed after having children.
Eva and Bo Da Bo Ma were also very satisfied after seeing it, so they started to move.
Potter meant that they didn't have to move, they just had to live in the castle, because the castle was so big, and the renovation and renovation were carried out in different areas, and they just had to change their accommodations.
But Wang Bo saw that the villa area had been put into use, so he kept one for himself, so the family simply moved over, anyway, this villa has fifteen or sixteen rooms, and it is enough to accommodate them.
This villa area is not a very luxurious kind, it is an ordinary country holiday villa, Wang Bo and Porter did not foresee that Sunset Town would develop into New Zealand's first town within a few years at the beginning of construction.
Therefore, in their opinion at that time, even if they designed a super luxury villa area, it would not be able to sell, it was better to sell the scenery and the style of Sunset Town, and the villa was hidden in the mountains and forests.
However, compared to the castle, they lived in this villa, which can be regarded as a step from the Middle Ages to the 21st century.
Spanning 5,000 square meters, the villa includes 16 bedrooms, a marble exterior pool, five en-suite bathrooms, an office, a living room, two dining rooms, a bowling alley, and a 20-seat private cinema.
It's already luxurious, but there's a wine cellar underground, and near the edge of Lake Hawea there's a terrace with a huge pool with four automatic massage chairs.
In this way, lying in the pool, you can see the blue waters of Lake Hawea, and the sea and sky are the same, and you can enjoy the comfort.
After the room was assigned, everyone was very excited at first, and Bo Dad and Bo Ma were also very satisfied, they had never lived in such a luxurious house.
However, then some small problems came.
Bo Dad, Bo Ma and others visited the villa and exclaimed: "Oh, this decoration is really good, a lot of money, right?" "Hey, the living room is all golden, what's it called?" Local tyrants! ”
The young president calmly sat on the sofa reading a book, and Wang Bo asked, "Minibus, how is it?" ”
The young president glanced at him and said frankly: "It's not as good as a castle." ”
Wang Bo laughed, this kid is sensitive, the castle has a third-level castle heart, and there is only a first-level residential heart here, which is indeed not as good as the castle.
The decoration was more luxurious than enough, and Potter had warned him that it was not good to decorate it like this.
But Wang Bo insisted on doing so, because at that time he considered that there was almost no decoration in the castle, and there was nothing modern, so the villa was completely modern.
The young president has seen this kind of thing the most, and no matter how luxurious this villa is, it is far from his family's mansions in Auckland and Wellington.
As a result, after a visit, some small problems began to appear:
"It's not okay if the house doesn't live with people, you see, there are termites here."
"Oops, there are termites in the guest room too, what's going on?"
"You come to the kitchen, there are more ants in the kitchen, didn't you do the ant extermination work in the first place?" Little Hani said.
In order to live in this way, the first thing you have to do is to clean up these ants, especially termites, which can hollow out wooden furniture and wooden beams and walls, which is a big scourge of homes.
In Wang Bo's opinion, the little ants are easy to destroy, and the vitality is not too strong, but the queen ant can't stand it!
On the first day, they cleaned all the ants, and Wang Bo also bought an insecticidal aerosol and sprayed all over the places where the ants appeared.
As a result, when he came back from work the next day, he found that there was another ant colony in the house!
"Could there be a queen ant around?" Several people looked at each other.
Wang Bo went to ask his neighbors, and the surrounding people had also suffered from ant plagues, but they were all done.
Seeing this, Wang Bo humbly asked for advice on how to deal with ants, and then got a variety of answers.
Use toothpaste to plug small holes where ants appear, sprinkle baking soda in the path of ants, keep extra hygiene balls in your home, wash floors with dish soap and bleach, and even use all kinds of weird spices.
After getting these secret recipes, Lao Wang went back and took little Lori to test them.
But it's useless, the ants are eliminated on the same day, and they will come tirelessly the next day, and this time it is the most harmful termites, ordinary ants are rare.
Wang Bo went to consult the neighbors again, and they said that there were only ordinary ants in their house, and there were no termites......
Now it was a big problem, and he finally determined that there was a damn termite nest under his villa, and he seemed to see a termite queen tirelessly producing small ants to plague his house.
He had no choice, so he went to consult his group, and Anderson found out and brought him a bottle of 'Beheading Ant Queen'.
The name of this drug is very domineering, Wang Bo asked, "Is it really effective?" ”
Anderson said confidently: "Of course, it is absolutely effective, this vial can destroy the entire anthill, and the low toxicity has no side effects on people and pets." ”
Wang Bo took it back and sprinkled it into a few corners of the house according to Anderson's instructions, and then two days later, there were really no termites.
It was a miracle drug, and he went to ask Anderson what was going on.
"The drug works by mixing borax in a sweet mucus and using the smell to attract worker ants to carry it," Anderson said. ”
"Worker ants are industrious and honest, and they will never eat it alone, but will definitely carry it back to their nest and spit it out for the queen to eat."
"But the drug itself is poisonous, after the queen ant eats it, the borax accumulates to a certain amount and poisons the queen ant, and in the process, the worker ants are also constantly dying, and finally they are naturally destroyed."
