There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them. Ｘ

After the two glanced at each other, they saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.

"I will try not to talk and adapt to the situation. ”

Ye Xuan commanded in a low voice, and Lin Chuan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Crossing the road and walking quickly to Dave's car, Ye Xuan looked surprised and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, Dave, I didn't expect to meet you here." ”

"Haha, I wasn't sure just now, you know, I'm a little face blind to Asians. Dave is still like that, even though life is not going well, he still has a hearty smile.

"By the way, let's introduce it. Ye Xuan pointed to Lin Chuan beside him and said, "This is my friend in China, Lin Chuan." Last time I said I had a friend who wanted to buy a farm, and it was him. ”

Hearing him say this, Dave's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly opened the car door, shook hands with Lin Chuan, and said with a smile: "Hello, my name is Dave." ”

Glancing at Ye Xuan quietly, Lin Chuan said with a straight face: "Dave, do you have time now?" I want to visit your farm, can I?"

How could Dave refuse this kind of request, he immediately nodded and said, "Of course it's no problem, let's go now!"

With that, Dave politely opened the car door and invited Lin Chuan and Ye Xuan into the car. He just wants to get rid of the farm as soon as possible, because there is really no way, and if he delays it for one more day, he will have to lose one more day of taxes and the interest in the bank will be increased.

It takes at least five hours to drive from the city of Darwin to his farm.

After getting in the car, Dave began to talk about his farm, but he was still more honest and talked about the shortcomings of the farm, "The biggest problem with the farm is fresh water. There are no fresh water resources on the farm, and the hot weather means that rainfall from the rainy season cannot be stored until the dry season. ”

Ye Xuan had already understood these problems, and he was not at all distracted at the moment, and his attention was always on the pendant.

Dave was still chattering about the farm, and Ye Xuan glanced at Lin Chuan beside him.

Lin Chuan nodded quietly, and suddenly said, "Eh, Dave, where did you buy this pendant?" ”

"Pendants?"

Dave was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the pendant hanging on the rearview mirror, and couldn't help laughing: "I can't buy this thing, my grandfather gave it to me before he died." It is said that my ancestors were once British nobles, and this pendant is the family crest. ”

"Noble, can you tell me, I'm very interested in this. Lin Chuan asked with a pretended surprised expression.

"To be honest, I don't know, because it's too old, but I heard my grandfather mention a few words when I was a child. But speaking of which, I do think of one thing, this farm seems to have been gifted to my ancestors by the federal government at the time, with the right to use it in perpetuity, not 99 years. In addition, the mineral resources within the farm area have nothing to do with the government and belong to individuals. ”

Mineral resources also belong to individuals. In addition to the need to pay taxes, this TM is simply equivalent to the medieval aristocratic domain.

You know, the land bought in Australia, although nominally a private domain, is not in reality. The minerals and oil and other resources buried under the land still belong to the state, and once the government wants to exploit them, the owner of the land has no choice but to get some compensation at most.

But if you think about it carefully, this is reasonable, Baron Hall is a nobleman no matter what he says, and even if he is exiled to Australia, he can enjoy some special treatment.

At this moment, Ye Xuan's heart was moved again. If it is really like what Dave said, then it is definitely not a loss to buy this farm for 390,000 Australian dollars.

Lin Chuan on the side asked: "Since this is the case, it is completely possible to explore and exploit underground resources, and if you find gold mines, you will be rich." ”

Dave sighed and said helplessly, "Dude, I understand what you said, but I don't have any money." ”

Not to mention the huge amount of money required for mining, just hiring a professional exploration team is a lot of money. The labor cost in Australia is very high, especially for high-end talents such as lawyers, engineers, and geologists, plus instruments and equipment, at least hundreds of thousands.

For Lin Chuan, this money may be just a drizzle, but for Dave, he can't get it even if he smashes the pot and sells iron. In addition, if there are really minerals found in the underground of the farm, it is better to say, if not, these hundreds of thousands of debts will completely crush him. At that time, bankruptcy will be light, and it is very likely that his wife will be separated, so he will not dare to gamble at all.

Ye Xuan deliberately quipped: "Dave, maybe you can look around the farm, maybe there will be some treasures left by the ancestors." ”

Speaking of the treasure, Dave suddenly became interested, "Dude, do you know, my grandfather said the same thing at the beginning, he said that his ancestor once buried a box of gold on the farm. ”

The two were taken aback, "A box of gold?"

"Haha, that's all a lie, like a gift from Santa Claus. If there really is a box of gold, does my grandfather, including my father, still need to guard this broken farm?" Dave shook his head and laughed.

Ye Xuan asked, "Then have you looked for it?"

"Of course I did, and I even bought a metal detector for it, but I didn't find any bullshit gold at all. ”

It wasn't until about 4 p.m. that the pickup arrived at the farm.

After getting out of the car, the Labrador who was guarding the door immediately ran forward and rubbed Dave's head affectionately.

After calming the dog, Dave took Ye Xuan and the two into the villa.

"What do you want to drink?juice or coffee?" Dave asked as he opened the fridge.

"Juice. ”

Ye Xuan replied casually and began to look at the house. Although he had already been here once, he didn't think much about it at the time, and now that he knew that this was where Baron Hall once lived, his mentality couldn't help but change. After looking around closely, he asked, "Dave, how old is this house?"

"It's been almost 150 years. Dave handed over a bottle of juice and explained, "But don't worry, the house was overhauled just last year, and there are no problems at all." ”

A house that has been in use for more than 100 years, especially a wooden one, may sound incredible. But in fact, there are many wooden houses that are more than 100 years old abroad.

Although a wooden house is not as strong as a brick house, it is easy to maintain and maintain. Generally speaking, it will be maintained and updated once every two or three years, and it will need to be overhauled once in about ten years. And basically there is no need to spend any money, there is a lot of wood on the farm, and you only need to pay the cost of the workers, and even some farmers will do it themselves, and even save the money of the decorators.

Don't look at this country house, it's more than a hundred years old, but it's no different from a new house. Because the wood of the whole house is replaced with new ones every time it is repaired.

After resting for a while, Dave asked, "Shall I show you around the house?" ”

Lin Chuan was about to nod his head in agreement, when Ye Xuan suddenly spoke: "Let's go and see the farm first, we will stay here for one night tonight, and then we will refer to the house." ”

Dave shrugged and smiled, "No problem, let's go!"

The farm was huge, more than 2,000 hectares, and it would take hours to walk, so Dave started the pickup truck again.

Ye Xuan deliberately let Lin Chuan sit in the co-pilot, and he sat in the back, while the two were talking, he quietly removed from the system inventory,
