Chapter 127 There are a lot of wild animals

Melbourne is actually very hot as well. It's not even nine o'clock yet and the temperature has already reached 34 degrees. However, like Bei'an, as long as you are not exposed to direct sunlight, hiding under an awning will not be a big problem. It's not as hot and stuffy as in the mountain city.

Jiang Ning rented a yacht and went out to sea with his wife and sister-in-law.

I prepared a lot of things to spend a day at sea.

Fishing gear and other supplies were already on the yacht, so he didn't need to prepare any.

Jiang Ning bought three sets of diving equipment and prepared to take Feng Yu and Feng Xue diving.

The yacht is not rented from a charter company, it is a private yacht.

The host was a lady in her forties, who was also the yacht driver. The waitress was her eighteen-year-old daughter. The mother and daughter provided services to the three people together. As for why her husband was not seen, it was difficult to find out.

When we arrived at the designated sea area, the yacht dropped anchor and stopped on the sea.

The three of them stood on the second-floor deck, admiring the scenery of the sea.

In fact, there is no scenery at all in the sea.

Except water is still water.

However, as the line of sight extends, it seems that you can see the end of the horizon.

It broadens one's mind.

There are no worries anymore.

After a while, the ship owner Jenny and her daughter Ava came up with fruit and champagne drinks, placed them on the table, and greeted the three people with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, the weather is nice today, I believe you will be in a good mood!"

Jiang Ning smiled and nodded: "I am in a good mood indeed."

Jenny said, "The fruit at Matilda's is quite good. You can try it. If you have any other needs, you can tell us and Ava and I will prepare it for you. If you want to fish, you can go to the stern of the boat and I will prepare fishing gear for you."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Okay, Ms. Jenny, I will tell you if you need me."

Jenny and Ava didn't disturb them and went down quickly.

Feng Yu was very envious: "I have to learn spoken English quickly, otherwise I won't understand what you are saying."

Jiang Ning said: "You can guess it even by guessing, right?"

Feng Yu said: "I can understand a little bit, but only those shorter sentences or familiar words, such as yes, ok, good, etc. I can't understand anything longer."

Jiang Ning said: "Don't worry, take your time."

Eating the fruit plate, drinking champagne and looking at the sea for a while, it became boring.

So I went fishing.

Jiang Ning actually didn't know how to fish. When he was out in the past, he didn't have the leisure to fish. His unfamiliar skills were so unbearable that the boat owner Jenny couldn't stand it anymore. She personally taught him, but in the end, he didn't catch anything.

Just give the position to Feng Yu and Feng Xue.

I put on my diving suit and prepared to go into the water to take a look.

In fact, this thing is not necessary, but it has to be concealed.

As we go down, the ocean's species become increasingly diverse.

Various fish species swim in the sea water, and the big fish eat the small fish.

I dived to thirty meters and still haven’t reached the bottom.

The water temperature gets lower as you go deeper.

After diving for a while, about forty meters, we finally reached the seabed.

The sea area recommended by Jiang Ning Jenny is quite good. There are coral reefs on the seabed, which are colorful and beautiful. There are many fish swimming around on the seabed, most of which I have never seen. Some are golden all over, and some are colorful.

There are also crabs and lobsters.

Jiang Ning wandered around for a while and found abalone in the coral reef.

Wild abalone is a delicacy.

Jiang Ning grabbed the shell and pulled at it but couldn't get it off. The thing had a strong suction force and had to be pried off with tools. So he went up and asked Ava to get him a small shovel, and then dived back to the seabed.

Tried prying it open, with no success.

The abalone here are all big.

Basically they are as big as a fist, and some are even much bigger than a fist.

It adheres to the rock, as if it has become one with the rock.

It's quite difficult to pry it off.

But this did not pose a problem for Jiang Ning, as he had an external plug-in. The reason why he went up to ask for a small shovel was also to conceal his whereabouts. After the earth control technique was activated, the rock that the abalone was attached to softened instantly, and he grabbed the abalone and pulled it off directly.

Just throw it into the net bag hanging around your waist.

I caught more than a dozen of them and also caught a few crabs.

Just as I was about to go up, I suddenly caught a glimpse of what seemed to be a big creature in a shallow pit not far away.

When I looked over, I saw it was a king crab.

The crab body was as big as a plate. It was the first time he had seen such a big crab.

He heard that some seafood stores in Melbourne also sell it, but he has not seen it yet.

This thing is a specialty of Australia. Because of its slow growth cycle, scarce production and strict fishing control, each one is extremely precious. It is said that during the crab fishing season, most of the king crabs caught are airlifted to New York.

Jiang Ning had never eaten this before, and he immediately became alert.

Catching this thing is no easy task.

If you don't have any crab catching tools and try to catch it with your bare hands, you might get hurt.

But this did not pose a problem for Jiang Ning. He activated the water control technique and the originally quietly flowing sea water solidified instantly, just like the air solidified, suppressing the huge monster and making it unable to move at all.

He grabbed the crab shells on both sides with both hands and picked up the big guy.

The crab's two pairs of large claws moved back and forth, but could not hurt him at all.

"gone!"

Jiang Ning activated the water escape technique and rushed towards the sea.

Ava had been staring at the water nervously. When she vaguely saw a dark shadow rushing up at a very fast speed, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "He's coming up."

Jenny also secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

After all, diving is a high-risk activity. Who knows what accidents or emergencies you might encounter on the seabed?

So Ava has been concentrating all the time and is ready to rescue as soon as she receives a signal for help.

But fortunately, Jiang Ning apparently did not encounter any accident.

And when he rushed out of the water, everyone was shocked.

Jenny exclaimed: "Oh my God, you caught a king crab with your bare hands, you are amazing."

Ava's eyes also sparkled and she looked a little excited.

Feng Yu and Feng Xue were different. When they saw Jiang Ning holding a huge crab with bared fangs and claws in both hands, and the crab looked quite fierce and not easy to mess with, they were frightened.

It’s okay for just ordinary small crabs.

The king crab is really big.

It was the first time for the two to see such a huge crab.

He didn't even try to fish anymore and quickly got away.

Jiang Ning was holding crabs in both hands and couldn't get on the boat, so he could only shout, "Give me a big bucket first."

Ava agreed and immediately ran back to get a big bucket.

Jiang Ning put the crabs into a large bucket and then carried the bucket onto the boat.

Then he untied the net bag, which contained a few small crabs and a dozen abalone as big as fists.

Some of them were bigger than his fist.

Seeing this, Jenny smiled happily and said, "Great boy, you have a great harvest today. Not only did you catch a king crab, but you also got so many high-quality abalones. I think we can have a good meal at noon."

Jiang Ning sat at the stern and said with a smile, "Of course, I haven't eaten Australian king crabs yet. I heard that some professional seafood stores in Melbourne sell them, but I've never seen them. The sea area chosen by Ms. Jenny is really good. The seabed is very rich. Not only did I find a lot of abalone, but I also encountered a king crab. I can finally taste the delicious food today."

Jenny asked, "So do you want to cook it yourself or should I do it?"

Jiang Ning said, "You should do it. I have no experience in cooking such a big thing. Don't waste the ingredients. Besides, I want to take my wife to see the seabed, so I'll trouble Ms. Jenny."

Jenny smiled and said, "Okay, I will cook this big guy into a delicious dish. You seem to be in very good physical condition, so I don't need to worry about your safety. However, diving is still risky, so you still have to be careful."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Thank you for the reminder, I will."

Jenny said nothing more and left with the bucket and net bag containing the crabs.

Feng Yu and Feng Xue then came to his side.

Feng Yu patted his chest and said, "How dare you catch such a big crab? I am so scared just looking at it."

Jiang Ning said: "What's there to be afraid of crabs?"

Feng Yu said: "That guy was threatening and looked very ferocious."

Jiang Ning said: "No matter how fierce a crab is, can it be fiercer than a human?"

Feng Yu understood what he meant, and thinking about his past experiences, he felt relieved.

Jiang Ning asked her: "Do you want to go to the bottom of the sea to have a look?"

Feng Yu hesitated a little: "Will I be a burden to you?"

Jiang Ning said: "No, it's no problem to take you along."

Feng Yu immediately became interested: "Okay, I also want to see what the seabed looks like!"

Jiang Ning found it inconvenient to wear a diving suit, so she asked Ava to help her put on the diving suit.

There was no other man on the boat except him, which was quite convenient.

After putting on the diving suit, carrying the oxygen tank and putting on the mask.

Jiang Ning held her slender waist and went into the water. After she adjusted to the water and explained the precautions again, he took her hand and dived directly. But no matter how good the advice was, Feng Yu couldn't help feeling a little panicked once she was in the water.

I struggled subconsciously and wanted to swim upwards.

It's an instinctive reaction.

Jiang Ning sensed it and immediately pulled her over.

He put his right arm around her waist, comforting her with his actions.

Feng Yu felt a strong sense of security and calmed down instantly.

No matter what time, this man's arms are always so strong and powerful.

Full of security.

As long as I lean on his arms, I will feel inexplicably safe.

We went all the way down and soon dived to a depth of seven or eight meters.

Jiang Ning also kept an eye on her situation at all times. After all, Feng Yu was different from him. A depth of more than 40 meters was no problem for him, but Feng Yu was different. He had only seen the sea a few times and had no professional training.

Even if she put on the diving suit, Jiang Ning couldn't guarantee whether her body could adapt.

Dive to ten meters.

Feng Yu immediately sent a signal: No more rain.

Jiang Ning immediately stopped diving and let her adapt to the ten-meter area.

It looks like there is no hope of seeing the scenery under the sea.

Adverse reactions appeared after only ten meters, there is still a long way to go!

After a while, Feng Yu shook his head at her.

He pointed upwards again.

Jiang Ning had no choice but to pull her up.

Wait until you are out of the water.

Feng Yu took off his mask and said, "I feel like I can't breathe." Jiang Ning said, "Just have fun. You won't be able to see the scenery under the sea."

Feng Yu was a little frustrated: "Am I too useless?"

Jiang Ning comforted him: "How could that be? Diving is also a strenuous job. Professional divers can only dive to about 40 meters with diving suits, and ordinary people can only dive to meters, so don't be discouraged."

Only then did Feng Yu regain his spirits.

After resting for a while, I went down and tried again.

This time she dived to a depth of eleven meters, and she felt she could still hold on.

But Jiang Ning didn't let her dive and didn't let her take any risks.

After playing in the water for half an hour, we got on the boat and rested for a while.

Jenny prepared lunch and went to eat.

Foie gras steak, mayonnaise pasta, and Jiang Ning's freshly caught abalone and king crab made for a very sumptuous lunch. I don't know if it was because of Jenny's cooking skills or because the freshly caught, pure natural wild abalone was really delicious.

Feng Yu and Feng Xue each ate two abalones as big as fists.

Most of the king crab, which weighed at least ten kilograms, went into Jiang Ning's stomach.

It is indeed delicious. It is said that if it were sold, it could be sold for two thousand dollars.

This kind of good stuff is not often available.

Jiang Ning was a bit greedy, so he went into the water again after lunch to see if there were any king crabs nearby. If he could catch one, he could continue with dinner. Unfortunately, he didn't find any, so he had to pry all the abalone off the coral reef.

There are probably fifty or sixty of them, large and small.

The big ones are as big as his fist, and the small ones are as big as Feng Yu’s fist.

Australian abalone are indeed big, and he has seen this thing in his hometown.

There is no comparison, it's like an adult and a breastfeeding baby.

Change location in the afternoon and continue diving and playing.

They didn't encounter any more king crabs, but they caught a lot of blue crabs and blue flower crabs, and also found several abalones. They also caught several big fish. Jenny and Ava, mother and daughter, were amazed at his ability to catch fish in the water.

After a day of fun, we returned before the sun set.

After docking at the pier, Jiang Ning gave some of the caught abalone and crabs to Jenny, paid the boat fare, and drove back with his wife and sister-in-law. They hadn't had dinner yet, so after returning to the house, the three of them cooked dinner together.

Feng Yu and Feng Xue cooked vegetables and steamed rice.

Jiang Ning steamed some crabs and abalone.

Having dinner.

Feng Yu also shared his experience: "My life is too relaxing. I either play or eat all day. I don't have to go to work, and there is nothing to worry about. If it continues like this, I don't even want to go to work."

Jiang Ning said: "We work so hard to earn money, isn't it just to enjoy life? We are used to being busy like cattle and horses, and we feel that we have a good life when we stop and rest occasionally. Other foreigners live comfortably."

Feng Yu took out the crab legs and asked, "Why didn't you stay abroad in the first place? Why did you run back?"

Jiang Ning said: "No matter how good the outside world is, it is not home; no matter how bad my hometown is, it is still home. When I was poor and down and out, I didn't want to go back. Of course I have to go back when I have money. There is a saying that goes, if you don't return to your hometown when you are rich, it is like walking in the night in fine clothes."

Feng Yu was amused: "You didn't seem so glorious when you first came back!"

Jiang Ning said: "I really want to use a loud speaker to tell my relatives that I have made a lot of money outside, but it seems a bit silly to show off like that. There are many ways to show off. As netizens say, if you want to show off, you have to show off some skills."

Feng Yuxiao almost vomited out the crab meat.

Feng Xue's cheeks also twitched.

Laughed for a while.

Feng Yucai said, "If everyone thinks the same as you do, then why would anyone try so hard to escape?"

Jiang Ning said, "It's because they don't feel safe. How many of those rich people are clean? If they don't run away quickly, they might have to go back to the days before liberation. Of course, it's also possible that they really don't want to live in their hometown."

Feng Yu asked: "What about you in the future? Will you figure it out?"

Jiang Ning thought about it seriously: "Who knows about this kind of thing? People's hearts are the most difficult to grasp. If you stay in one place for a long time, you will want to move to another place. This is unpredictable. Of course, at least for now, I don't want to go out."

……

After two days of fun, I went to Sydney again.

The last time I came here I just had a quick look and didn’t have a very deep impression of it.

The second time I came, my experience was much more profound.

I feel that if you have money, Sydney is better than Melbourne.

As someone said, if you have money, Shanghai is definitely a good place.

I spent four days in Sydney and then went to Canberra.

As a capital city, I feel not as good as the small county town in my hometown.

It was deserted, with hardly any people around.

After a day of sightseeing, I lost interest and flew to Western Australia for three days.

I feel that apart from being a little hot, Perth is actually pretty good.

I will fly back to Melbourne on the 17th and will go back in three days. Traveling is actually quite tiring. Feng Yu doesn't want to go far again. She plans to just travel around Melbourne, have a good rest for three days and then go home. After the trip, she has to bring some things for her parents-in-law.

So the next day we went shopping in the commercial district.

Bought some clothes and cosmetics.

On the third day, Jiang Ning received a call from Lin Zheming, inviting him to visit a friend's farm.

Jiang Ning went there but didn't bring Feng Yu and Feng Xue.

The farm was quite far away and it took four hours to drive there.

In Balranald, north of Melbourne, it is out of Victoria.

The farm is quite large, covering an area of ​​more than 200 square kilometers, which is ten times larger than Jiang Ning's farm in Bei'an. However, it is quite difficult to operate because the land is too large and the terrain is complex, with some places being jungles and some being hills.

In other places there are dry sparse forests.

Mainly because there are too many wild animals and it is difficult to take care of them.

Farmer Cao Bin is also a Chinese and a successful first-generation Chinese student living in Australia.

The farm had a helicopter, and Cao Bin personally flew the helicopter to take Jiang Ning and Lin Zheming for a tour.

Jiang Ning saw many Australian national treasures, including wild goats and wild boars.

If these guys were put on his farm, they would definitely be a treasure.

But on Australian farms, these guys are a nuisance.

If you don’t get rid of these guys, you can’t farm or raise cattle and sheep.

When the helicopter flew over a jungle, it saw a small group of wild boars below.

Cao Bin immediately handed the plane to Lin Zheming, opened the cabin door and let Lin Zheming lower the altitude, and then shot the wild boar. As a result, he fired three shots and missed. Shooting at a moving target is not something that ordinary people can do.

Cao Bin asked Jiang Ning: "You have been a soldier, can you shoot a gun?"

Jiang Ning said: "It's OK."

Cao Bin handed him the gun and asked, "Would you like to try it?"

Jiang Ning was not polite either. He took the gun, opened the right door, and leaned half of his body out. After Lin Zheming drove the helicopter in a circle and opened the firing range, he fired a shot at the bottom without hesitation.

The first shot missed.

This gun was not any firearm he was familiar with.

Haven't even seen the model number.

It should be a civilian hunting rifle produced in Australia.

It's not surprising that it missed.

After firing three shots in a row, I finally found the feeling.

The fourth shot hit a wild boar.

The fifth shot hit the largest wild boar again.

Cao Bin couldn't help but shout, "Great shooting skills."

Jiang Ning didn't shoot again and handed the gun to him.

Cao Bin took the gun and fired seven or eight shots, finally hitting a wild boar.

The other wild boars had already run away, and no one knew where they had gone.

The helicopter flew several circles but was not seen.

While asking Lin Zheming to fly northwest, Cao Bin called the farm workers and asked them to send someone to drive over to take away the wild boars. Three wild boars had been killed, and they could not be wasted. They had to be taken back for a dinner in the evening.

After flying around, we returned to the manor located in the south of the farm.

Workers have pulled back three wild boars.

After getting off the plane, Cao Bin said to Jiang Ning, "Brother, you have good marksmanship. You are from the secret service, right?"

Jiang Ning nodded and said nothing more.

Cao Bin didn't ask any more questions, and said, "What do you think of this piece of land?"

Jiang Ning said: "It's quite a large area."

Cao Bin said, "I spent 320 million to buy this farm. I originally wanted to raise some cattle and sheep, but as you can see, there were too many uninvited guys. The cattle and sheep were driven away by them and I couldn't keep them."

Jiang Ning asked, "Isn't that thing indestructible?"

Cao Bin shook his head: "It's easier said than done. The farm is too big and those things are quite sneaky. It's not easy to find them. I've been in charge of this farm for almost four years, and not only have I not gotten rid of all those things, but there are more and more of them."

Jiang Ning laughed and said, "If this were in the country, there wouldn't be enough to eat!"

Cao Bin also said: "Yes, there are too many people in China, and everything is extinct. There are too few people in Australia, and wild animals are rampant. I have no choice. If you want this land, I will give you the original price, and don't let me lose money."

Jiang Ning was not in a hurry: "Let me think about it first!"

Cao Bin nodded and said nothing more.

Previously, when they were in Sydney, Jiang Ning and Lin Zheming called each other and expressed their intention to buy land.

Cao Bin brought him to visit the farm today because he was planning to make a move.

Jiang Ning just had this idea, but hadn't decided whether to buy it or not.

Let's wait and see, he is not in a hurry anyway.

We had a special game meal on the farm and stayed on the farm for one night.

The next morning, Jiang Ning and Lin Zheming drove back to Melbourne.

Since he was not around, Feng Yu and Feng Xue didn't dare go out.

Stay in the villa obediently and don't dare to go anywhere.

It was not until others came back that I found my backbone again.

Feng Yu asked him: "What do you think? Can I buy it?"

Jiang Ning said, "The place is quite big, and you can buy anything if you want. But there are too many wild animals here. It's different from my hometown. Wild animals cause too much damage. But I don't expect to make money from the farm. I'll wait and see. There's no rush!"

Feng Yu nodded, and without asking any more questions, he said, "I'm going back tomorrow, do you have anything else to buy?"

Jiang Ning said: "You have bought everything you need, so I won't buy anything else."

Feng Yu suddenly slapped his head and said, "Oh, I forgot to bring some gifts for my colleagues. I have to go out again."

Jiang Ning couldn't help but complain: "Why did you come all this way to bring a gift to your colleague? You can just buy some jewelry from a street stall in Guangzhou and that's it."

Feng Yu said: "Since you are fine now, just accompany us for another trip!"

Jiang Ning had no choice but to drive her to the street.

　I feel much better today. I will stay up all night and run 9K tomorrow.
