493.Carnival of the Ox (4/5)

With the ATV, it is much more convenient to drive on the lakeside beach, and every day Wang Bo has to take the Queen of Zhuang Ding and Xiao Wang to swim, which has become a sight.

The strong man has a new hobby, which is to jump into the water from the end of the dock.

At first it would only jump, then it would learn to take off its bomb jumps and curl up on all fours, and eventually, it would even learn to take off and turn over and dive......

Wang Bo took a few small videos and posted them on the Internet, a group of New Zealanders were happy, and some Canadian immigrants said that this is the real water hound, and other Newfoundland dogs and the like are weak.

At the end of March, Wang Bo was going to attend the Carnival of the Bulls, the club's annual meeting, which theoretically all members would attend, in Fiordland National Park, the southernmost part of the South Island.

Fiordland National Park is the southwesternmost part of New Zealand, surrounded by the sea on three sides, blended with mountains and rivers, with many mountains and lakes in the territory, bordering the Tasman Sea, rich terrain and vast area, with a total of tens of thousands of square kilometers!

Listed as a protected area in 1904, a park in 1952, a World Heritage Site in 1986 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990, Fiordland National Park is New Zealand's largest park and one of the world's finest pristine areas.

Wang Bo asked Eva to ask for leave to go with her, but the latter was very embarrassed and said: "You know dear, we have just been on vacation to your hometown for more than a month, and if I ask for leave again, it will be a little bad." ”

Wang Bo shrugged helplessly and said, "Then what should I do?" I've heard that the fjord scenery is beautiful, especially now that it's just autumn and I think you'll love it. ”

Eva thought for a moment and said, "So, you're going over the weekend, right?" I'll stay there with you for two days and come back on Monday morning, okay? ”

This suggestion is not good, it is too tiring for Eva, Wang Bo felt sorry for her, touched her face and said that it was better not to go.

But Eva decided it was the best idea and decided to do so.

On Friday afternoon, Wang Bo joined Motak, Moses and other farmers, and together they boarded the helicopter of the domineering president and flew to the border of New Zealand.

On the helicopter, Moses drank fragrant coffee and said with a smile: "Wang, we really followed you, to be honest, I don't seem to have flown in such a private helicopter, it's very luxurious." ”

Wang Bo shook Eva's hand and said, "If you want, you can stay in here and sleep, because it will be with us for the next two days." ”

Motach and the other farmers laughed, and they took Moses and shook each other up, setting the mood.

The helicopter departed from Aujo, resupplied in Queenstown and then flew to the small town of Manapuri in one go, where the Bull Club would meet.

The town is located in a river valley with a special topography that is a product of the Ice Age, and the later valley was intercepted by moraines to form the famous Manapuri Lake, from which the town got its name.

The small town of Manapuri is mainly sustained by tourism and has a small population of only a few hundred people, so choosing this place for the Bull Carnival was a challenge.

After the helicopter landed, a handsome blonde youth greeted them and asked directly: "Guys, are you the ranchers of the cattle?" ”

"yes man, you're pretty fresh, you should be a local?" Motark went up and asked.

The young man grinned and said, "Yes, I was born here, and I will die here. Helicopters are great, I've never seen much of a helicopter like this in my life. ”

Wang Bo invited him to come up and sit down, and Eva took a picture of him, and the young man smiled and took a lot of pictures, and Eva used a camera of the nature of Polaroid, and gave him a picture after the shooting.

The young man was delighted, he put the photo in his bag and said: "Come on, guys, I'll take you to the big army, if you want to visit the power station, then look for me, my uncle is an electrical engineer. ”

Water from Lake Manapuri eventually drains into the Wai'o River, and in 1975, the New Zealand government built the Lake Manapuri Control Gate to regulate water levels and generate electricity.

The young man claimed that his name was Mallop, and Wang Bo felt that the name had an Eastern European flavor, but he was not familiar with it, and it was not easy to ask too personal questions.

In fact, they didn't need to be introduced by him, they could find the people of the club, and the town was only a little bit, and Eva laughed: "It's not as big as your village." ”

Wang Bo felt that his village had been insulted: "Please, dear, there are more than 200 people in our village, and the population here is less than half of us." ”

The town is like a sparrow, with bars, hotels, fast food outlets in the center of the town, schools and hospitals in the living quarters, and even an old movie theater.

Eva was immediately captivated, she marveled at the scenery around her, and said, "God, this is like the world of half a century ago, and I like this kind of world." ”

Wang Bo's heart moved, and he said: "If that's the case, how about you say that we want to find a canyon in the Southern Alps and then replicate a town like this?" ”

Eva smiled, but shook her head and said, "That's a big project, wait, maybe it will be possible in the future, but not now." ”

The people at the Bull Club knew each other well, and Motak and Moses had a wide range of friends, and they soon ran into acquaintances and began to greet each other.

Some people shook hands with Wang Bo and said, "Chinese rancher, you must be the king of good luck China, haha, your ranch is great, we have all heard about it." ”

Wang talked to them angrily, always keeping a low profile and humility, because he found that he was young here.

They went into a small hotel to put their luggage, which also smelled of the fifties and sixties, and even hung a picture of Queen Elizabeth when she was young.

At that time, the queen was still twenty-eight years old, and her appearance was beautiful and moving, which was not the same as the old lady who was dying now.

The bed was also a medieval-style wooden bed, but with a thick mattress, on which Eva lay on top and let out the fat cat brothers who were stuffed in her bag, and the two brothers were so excited that they jumped around on the bed.

A white middle-aged man with glasses walked in and said with a smile: "Wang? See you again at last, welcome to our carnival. ”

Wang Bo hurriedly turned back, this is Leonard, he had a relationship with him when he went to submit the club application before, and he helped him many times, and he had to thank him in person.

Today and tomorrow are the days when club members report, and Leonard, as the general manager, is naturally busy with work, so he didn't stay for a long time, but just came to chat with Wang Bo and left.

Wang Bo finally called him down and asked, "Hey, man, is there any room available?" If I book two rooms, I don't know if it's convenient? ”

Leonard shook his head helplessly and said, "You see man, this is a small town, and we even rented a house to find enough room, so ......"

Eva smiled and said, "No problem, sir, my boyfriend is just asking, thank you for the arrangement." ”

Leonard smiled, "We're here to help." ”
