Chapter 384: Camel Kingdom
"So we're going to move on? Where is it difficult to go northwest?"
Sun Yi looked at the endless desert and asked with a slight frown.
Ji Shaotao shook his head and said, "You can't go forward, there is no road ahead, and it is very dangerous for this kind of bus to drive in."
At this time, there are still some desert Gobi roads around them, and dozens of miles ahead, they are pure deserts.
Whether it's an off-road vehicle or a bus, you can't drive in the desert at all.
If the tires get stuck in the bunker, it is even more dangerous, and the trailer will not be able to pull it out, but will only sink deeper and deeper.
Sun Yi's eyes widened and he asked, "So, what should I do?" Don't drive in? Is it necessary to walk so far to get there?"
Hearing this, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
The vast desert is boundless, and if you walk on foot, it will cost you a small life.
Not to mention the scorching red sun, it is the cumbersome and cumbersome luggage and equipment, I am afraid it is difficult to drag.
Ji Shaotao smiled and said, "You think too much, how to walk on foot? We need to go to a nearby county town and find a caravan."
Chongning was stunned for a moment and said, "The camel caravan? Shall we go on camels?"
Yang Haoyu said: "The best means of transportation in the desert can only be camels."
Camels are experts in the extreme environment of living in the desert and are known as the ships of the desert.
Camels can survive for days without water, can eat a variety of plants, can withstand high temperatures, and can also walk for long periods of time without rest.
In the desert, camels are the best means of transportation.
Since the ancient Silk Road, camels have been the best companions of desert people and passing caravans, used to transport goods along long journeys.
Leng Yanyun looked around and said, "Is there a county seat nearby?"
The surrounding desert is a desert, except for the majestic Helan Mountain in the distance, which is a vast desert.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it's inhabited.
Moreover, at this time, the navigation is blank, there is no mobile phone signal, how to find it is also a problem.
Ji Shaotao smiled and said, "Don't worry, just leave the matter of finding the way to me."
With that, the group walked back to the bus.
In the car, Ji Shaotao took out a very large and detailed map of the place.
He was densely packed on it, and a lot of information was marked.
I don't know how he positioned it, so he pointed to a place and said, "Master Zhou, follow this road and continue to drive for half an hour."
Master Zhou, who is also an experienced veteran driver, looked at the map and said, "Okay."
After that, the bus started and drove away according to the direction of the map.
Sun Yi, who was in the back of the bus, was full of doubts, "The direction here is not clear, could it be that you are driving in the wrong place?"
Yang Haoyu was in front and said disdainfully, "It's not deep in the desert yet, it's just outside. If we all get lost here, we don't have to go, we just disband and go home."
Sun Yi cut off angrily and stopped talking.
Chongning still believes in Ji Shaotao and Master Zhou.
They are all professional explorers, and it is not their turn to question a few road idiots.
After about half an hour, Duan Jingzhi's face was happy, pointed out the window, and said, "Brother Ning, look!"
Chongning and Sun Yi opened the curtains, looked out of the car window, and looked over.
I saw that not far away, there were several small bungalows.
Looking further inside, many houses have appeared one after another.
Obviously, it's a small town.
In the desert, after walking for several hours, it was all full of sand, and there were few trees to be seen.
At this time, they were very excited when they saw a popular place.
Ji Shaotao smiled and said to everyone, "How about it, I didn't lie to everyone."
Sun Yi smiled, touched the back of his head, and said innocently, "Haha, I didn't say anything about you
Lie to us."
Soon, the bus stopped inside the small county town.
The group got out of the car and got down.
This small county town is very remote, but the roads are extremely wide and the houses are far apart.
This northwest desert is vast and sparsely populated.
In the center of the county, it gradually became prosperous.
Perhaps this place is the only living area within a radius of 100 miles.
In the county, people come and go, but it is very lively.
However, the people here are somewhat exotic, and their clothes are different from those in the interior.
The skin is also a little slightly darkened and rough, which should be the cause of the perennial wind and scorching sun.
Hyun Jin walked down the street, his eyes shining.
On the main street, there are quite a few flavorful delicacies that will tempt his taste buds from time to time.
Jingle bells, jingle bells.
A crisp copper bell rang from not far away.
Duan Jingzhi's eyes lit up, pointed over there, and said, "Look, it's a camel caravan!"
In front of the main street, a large camel caravan came over.
The number of caravans was quite large, at least fifty or sixty.
On the back of the camel, there is also a high load.
Obviously, this is a caravan.
Ji Shaotao looked over there with a surprised face, and hurriedly walked up and talked with the owner of the caravan.
After a while, he walked back.
Leng Yanyun asked, "How is it?"
Ji Shaotao pointed to the front and said, "The boss said that there is a big camel merchant in front of him, and he can rent a camel team. Let's go and see."
Ordinary merchants rarely have their own caravans, which are rented temporarily.
Thus an industry was formed, camel caravan rental, which was what he called camel merchants.
This is similar to the car rental industry in the hinterland.
According to the guidance of the owner of the camel team, Ji Shaotao soon came to an extremely empty and magnificent place.
Sun Yi looked at the gate in front of him and said in admiration, "What a magnificence!"
There is a grand gate in front of it, which is extremely wide, like an ancient cottage.
On both sides of the gate, there are two stone statues of camels, which seem to be some years old.
On one side, there is a large signboard.
Chenfeng Camel Industrial Base!
According to Ji Shaotao's understanding, the boss of this camel merchant is a large local entrepreneur.
He standardized the camel industry and extended many industrial chains.
In addition to the main business of camel team rental, there are camel milk, camel leather goods, camel meat and hump for sale, etc.
There are also some peripheral products, such as camel toys, camel avatars and figurines.
The whole business is booming, and it is extremely famous in the local area, and even in Helan Mountain.
After Ji Shaotao entered, he explained his intention to the staff.
The staff led them to the breeding base in the backyard, which is where the camels were picked.
As soon as they walked in, Chongning and the others were shocked.
The breeding base in front of you, full of camels, is densely packed with at least a few hundred. z.br>
Big and small, tall, short, fat and thin, you name it.
Sun Yidu couldn't help but admire, "This is a camel kingdom!"
