Chapter 306: A Journey to Africa
"This car is too common, you can choose another one, just this one, it seems that I am too insincere." After looking at the car selected by Shi Lei, the prince shook his head and said.
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness. This car works just right for me, so I don't have to choose another car. Shi Lei shook his head and rejected the prince's kindness.
This person must understand the truth of cherishing blessings, if you really take advantage of it, who will play with you. Although this is just a small bargain for others, it can be regarded as a courtesy, and they don't care much about the value of this thing.
Anyway, is it all a thing, in the prince's heart, a panther is much more important than these worthless cars. But Shi Lei can't look at it like that.
Just look at the cars given by His Royal Highness the Prince, a brand new McLaren P1, a Ferrari LaFerrari, a Lamborghini Aventador, a Porsche 918, and a Bugatti Veil. There is also a Carrera GT supercar that has just undergone a complete refurbishment of the interior from the tuning factory.
These are all major sports car brands, the most top-of-the-line boutique sports cars. Not only are the prices exaggerated, but they are all goods that you have money and may not be able to buy. Some of them have been discontinued, so you'll have to try your luck if you want to. But of course, none of this is a problem for His Royal Highness the Prince.
But Shi Lei definitely can't know how to ask for these sports cars, although they look really handsome, Shi Lei feels that if he chooses these, it is easy to give people the impression of greed.
And Shi Lei is not very interested in this kind of pure racing artifact, otherwise he wouldn't have bought one for himself all the time, after all, this thing is really not very practical.
Shi Lei doesn't have a hobby of flying cars, and he doesn't have to go out to drag it with this pickle girl, Shi Lei basically stays in the ranch most of the time, so he didn't choose a real sports car.
In fact, on the prince's list, there are many relatively common cars, such as the Mercedes-Benz G series modified version of Babos, several famous 007 cars, Aston Martin series, and Bentley and Rolls-Royce.
Of course, there are also Ferrari, Porsche and Lamborghini, some of the common models of the three major supercar companies, it seems that they are all sent to the tuning factory for interior replacement, just like the Carrera GT sports car, which is known as the "widow maker".
However, the prince probably felt that these cars were too common to give away, and it was a bit difficult to take them out, so he only took out a few rare cars.
The Porsche Panamera selected by Shi Lei can appear on the list, which must have its merits. This car is not an ordinary version, but a bulletproof version modified by a defense company from the same 007 car, from John Bull, who is known as not seeing the moon.
Although the appearance looks the same as the ordinary model of the top-of-the-line version, in fact, the bulletproof level of this gun has reached the European IV protection level, which can not only protect against direct attacks from AK-47 rifles, but also against ordinary grenade explosions.
Of course, in fact, its protection ability is slightly inferior to Shi Lei's Black Dragon SUV. But it retains the car's comfort and speed. Such a large man, which has increased by more than 1 ton, has an acceleration time of 100 kilometers per hour and is only 1 second longer than the original version.
This car is just right for Shi Lei, and if you attend some high-level occasions at close range in the future, you can use this car to take Laura to participate. After all, for some high-end banquets, this kind of four-seater sedan is more suitable.
Seeing that Shi Lei had made up his mind, the prince didn't say anything more. Naturally, Shi Lei does not need to worry about the consignment of this car, and someone will help to handle everything, including the transfer procedures and so on.
"Hey, Chief Chief, I need to have an opinion." Shi Lei saw that after this was done, he changed the topic and talked about his thoughts in a joking way.
The chief looked at Shi Lei, signaled that he was listening, and asked Shi Lei to continue.
"As you know, I'm the owner of the Stone Ranch, but I've eaten with you a few times, and the chef I've tasted is naturally very skilled, but the quality of the ingredients is a little worse than that of my ranch.
So, I'm going to recommend myself, would you like to think about changing it to a variety of ingredients produced in Stone Ranch?
Not only are they delicious, but they're also much more nutritious than other products and easier to absorb. ”
Shi Lei simply advertised himself, making the chiefs look at Shi Lei in amazement. If you make such a solemn opinion, you are suing me that it is wrong not to use your products. Although I appreciate your kind of style, don't think of yourself as an outsider.
After all, there are too many people who meet the chief with various purposes, and it is really rare for someone like Shi Lei to directly pull up a business for himself. Thinking of this, the chief looked at Shi Lei with some tears and laughter.
"The stone is right. The last time I was invited by him, I went to his mother's private restaurant for a meal, and the taste of the ingredients from the stone ranch still lingers on me.
Of course, I also envy Shishi, who can have a mother who is so skilled in cooking. Princess Haya interjected in a playful way.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell the steward when I go back, and change it to the ingredients from the stone pasture." The chief agreed with some tears and laughter.
I don't know how Shi Lei and them bought their wives and told them about them. Of course, this little thing, the chief didn't care. I really enjoy this kind of communication, which is more like a real way of communicating with friends.
"By the way, since the quality of the ingredients in Stone Ranch is so good, you can also send someone to participate in the food exhibition to be held in the port area of Jebelari in a while. I'll ask them to send you an invitation when I get back. The chief said seriously.
"That's so much appreciated. Dubai is already the preferred place for many successful people to live and relax. Nowadays, there are quite a few of our target customers here.
It's great to have such an opportunity. "Shi Lei, this is telling the truth. Foreigners who can afford to buy property in Dubai must be multimillionaire-level billionaires, and the unit must be at least the kind of American knife.
Since Dubai is a well-known country of local tyrants, all the people who can come are definitely rich, and a villa on the palm island alone will cost millions of dollars. That's still the reservation friendly price when it was first developed, and it's a common thing to look back at a set of millions.
Therefore, the foreigners who can afford to buy a house here are definitely consuming the ingredients of the stone pasture. And relatively speaking, these people are still very concerned about the quality of life, and for Stone Ranch, it is the most ideal consumer group.
After ending the banquet and repeatedly thanking the chief's family for their enthusiasm, Shi Lei and Laura said goodbye to Elton and their group, and under the leadership of Le Fukun, they embarked on a flight to Johannesburg, South Africa.
Wild Africa, I'm here for Lalala.
The world-famous Kruger National Park is not too far away. And Shi Lei's goal is next to the Kruger National Park.
The excitement and the slightly sweet air outside the cabin dispelled the fatigue of their group of people from a long flight. On a special tarmac, they flew in a small plane, aiming for their destination, a private reserve invested by Le Fukun himself.
What is very rare is that the plane that Shi Lei and they took was not delayed. Or when they came, the pilot of this small plane was already waiting here, which is really very rare in Africa.
For the enthusiastic people of Africa, it is extremely normal for you to hire a plane and want to get around, and the other party is two or three hours late.
If you wait for most of the day for the other party to come, or if you don't come at all, is that a common thing?
On the contrary, the other party was able to arrive on time, and the one who arrived was not the standard African attire with flip-flops and pants, which was the real amazing thing.
However, after learning that this was a retired Germanic pilot, Shi Lei felt as if he had explained everything.
This private reserve in Lorefour is located right on the border with the Kruger Park. Close to the world-renowned Africa's No. 1 safari camp, Sabi Sabi's top jungle camp and private reserve.
Okay, it's easy to think about the name, but in fact, the name sabisabi was originally derived from the South African conga language for "awe".
The Sabi River was home to a large number of ferocious crocodiles and hippos, and European hunters first arrived in 1830 to obtain ivory and rhinoceros horn, and set up camp on the south bank of the river.
Soon after, the discovery of gold in northeastern South Africa gave the region a brief boom. With the opening of the Crossing the Jungle Railway, some aristocrats began to take the train for "safaris" that were fashionable at the time.
As the train travels, you can see the beauty of Africa and wildlife outside the window. The enchanting scenery of this land began to be recognized by more and more people, which is why a large number of private reserves are thriving here.
In addition to Sabi Sabi, a huge private reserve with 4 luxury sub-camps and an area of 65,000 hectares, there are hundreds of large and small private reserves around.
Who made Kruger National Park the most representative and well-known of the more than 20 national parks in South Africa?
Relying on this treasure trove of nature, there are naturally the most private reserves that have survived. Among the hundreds of private reserves in South Africa, most of them are concentrated around Kruger.
In addition to Sabi Sabi, the number one top campsite, there is also one of the top 10 places to visit in Africa, the Ulu Sabah Private Reserve, which is located in this area.
This reserve belongs to Mr. Branson, who is very influential in South Africa. His daughter Sally, who is now a popular candidate for the princess in the country where she can't see the moon.
Although there are only 21 furnished rooms in this reserve, it is definitely not rich or expensive to live here, as it is one of the most extravagant camps.
Such fierce competition and a relatively difficult survival situation naturally make it difficult for Lefou's private reserve to survive. This is also an important reason why he insisted on inviting Shi Lei and his wife to come over together. R1152
