After exchanging phone numbers with Hu Lin, Wang Hao and the two checked out and left, while Hu Lin gave the two of them a 50% discount very enthusiastically. Although Wang Hao didn't mind the money, he could feel the pride of Hu Lin making friends, at least he dared to express it.

In Australia, Chinese people are often bullied, but it is precisely the Chinese who bully them. Therefore, Wang Hao does not like to deal with Chinese people, and he would rather make friends with these foreigners than be used or hurt by his own compatriots.

After two days in Sydney, Wang Hao was about to rush back to the ranch to deal with the calves, he had asked Pete to help contact several ranches that specialized in selling calves, and now he was going back to check the quality and sign the contract.

This is an indispensable part of expanding the scale of the ranch, even if the life in Sydney is tempting and leisurely, he can only go back, only Wang Hao himself can call the shots, after all, these calves are not a small number, but thousands.

It just so happened that Su Jing was also busy with the case at hand, and he could accompany Wang Hao to stay at the ranch for a while, so the two of them planned to drive back to the ranch directly, instead of waiting for Wang Hao's private jet to complete the overhaul and maintenance.

It takes ten hours to get from Sydney to Swanhill, and the distance of more than 900 kilometers is still quite long.

When I think about it, I turn the tired time into a happy one, and it's just time to drive this car back to try the level.

Early the next morning, Wang Hao and Su Jing packed their things. They stuffed the trunk of the new car with things, and even the Xiaoice box on the car was full of things, which really looked like going out for fun.

Open the navigation. From here to Swanhill all the way to the highway on the line, the M31 and A20 two highways can be reached, the transportation network is still very developed, but public transportation is troublesome, plane tickets are very expensive, and the train is slow and few.

Su Jing smeared some sunscreen on her face, and she also specially prepared her sunglasses. After all, it's hard to look at the sun in the car. Wang Hao, on the other hand, wore a simple solid-color T-shirt, and men don't need to dress up too fancy.

Australia's topography is characteristic, with rugged rocky terrain, vast deserts and lush flat-topped mountains in the west and centre. In the east, there is a continuous plateau, and at the sea is a narrow beach with gentle slopes, which slope gently to the west and gradually become plains.

The coastal area is full of wide sandy beaches and lush greenery. The terrain is varied: to the west of the city of Sydney, there are the cliffs of the Blue Mountains. To the north of Brisbane lies the tall, graceful and eroded volcanic neck of the Grathhouse Ranges, while the south coast to the west of the city of Adelaide is a flat field.

Although Swanshire is located in the central region, thanks to the flow of the Murray River, Australia's largest river, it has formed a large area of flat grassland, where the famous wheat grazing belt is located, and many pastures are mixed.

As soon as she got on the highway, Su Jing took out her mobile phone, and she said to Wang Hao with a smile: "Although most of the highways in Australia are free of charge. But this M31 has always been charging, but the charging method is a little different from that in China. ”

Wang Hao drove for so long. He has never encountered a toll booth in Australia, which is a rare thing, his eyes are fixed on the front, but his mouth is chatting with Su Jing: "Didn't you say that there is no charge?" What's going on, let's hear it. ”

Su Jing originally wanted to show off his knowledge, but he opened his mouth but couldn't say anything, "I don't know why, I just know that they don't charge according to the mileage, but according to the toll section and the number of trips, there are five points along the way, and the fixed charge is 35 Australian dollars, these points are video toll stations, that is, you need to pay by yourself." In the past, the payment was made at the post office, but now you can call and use a credit card directly, which is much more convenient. ”

"That's not bad, just run on the gas pedal anyway." Wang Hao watched the speed of the car soar to 120Km/h and then controlled the speed a little, although the performance of the new car can continue to accelerate, but safety is the most important.

Some sections of Australia's highways are very spacious, some sections are very narrow, and there are very few 24-hour gas stations along the way.

"Hey, look, it doesn't look like Optimus Prime!" Su Jing suddenly pointed to the head of the large trailer in front of him and said, "These cars lined up together really look like filming "Transformers". ”

Trailer heads such as Volvo, Scania, and Renault, which are common in Europe, are rare species in Australia, and most of them are American-made tow heads. For example, the Peterbilt that Wang Hao is about to overtake now - the Autobot leader "Optimus Prime" in the cartoon and movie "Transformers" is the head of this brand.

The fenders, exhaust pipes, reflective frames, grilles and even wheels of these trailer heads are almost chrome-plated and shiny with silver shingles. In addition, I don't know if it is Australia's regulations or the trailer driver is too coquettish, the outline of the trailer head is clearly outlined with small yellow lights, so that it is easy to identify at night, but it has an extra layer of flaunting capital.

Australia's trucks are majestic; At night, it's golden and murderous – especially at 110 km/h. I have to say that in Australia, the most beautiful thing is probably the truck, so that Wang Hao is often distracted when driving.

When I saw a team of all kinds of cars closely following behind a Peterbilt tractor, the feeling was that "Optimus Prime" was leading a group of minions to settle accounts with the Decepticons, and even the Anemo God who followed at the end suddenly had a sense of pride in his heart.

The speed of the car was too fast, and it was difficult to see any scenery along the way, but the two of them talked and laughed, often joking about the rest of the cars on the highway.

The sun was shining fiercely, and Wang Hao's face was tanned red after wearing sunglasses, which was not an exaggeration.

Transitioning from tall greenery by the Sydney seashore to low bushes, Wang Hao plans to stop and rest before crossing the Great Dividing Range.

Although he was not tired at all, with the help of the druid's magic, he did not feel tired even if he drove for a few more hours. Stopping now is just to relax and let Su Jing go to the toilet by the way.

Parking the car in the shade of a tree outside the gas station, Wang Hao leaned against the car door with a stick of grass in his mouth, feeling the coolness of the gentle breeze. M31 is the traffic artery between Sydney and Melbourne, so there is still a lot of traffic, and many car owners are resting at this gas station.

"Man, this car is good." A white man squatting next to him looked at the car enviously, "This kind of car is strong and durable." ”

Wang Hao laughed and nodded with a smile: "I just like that it is durable enough, otherwise I will go to change to a sports car." ”

"What's so good about a sports car." The big man's words were full of disdain for sports cars, "Sports cars are now used for young cubs to pick up girls, and real sports cars should run in such a vast environment!" (To be continued......)
