Chapter 91: Pretty in Pink

Nothing is difficult in this world, as long as you are willing to climb.

Under Rock's strong promotion, changes in Oak Town are happening day by day at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The ruins were first cleared out of Oak Town. The next ones to be cleared were the abandoned houses that were confirmed to have no owners. After all the houses were cleared, Rock was surprised to find that there were only a few left in the entire Oak Town.

Up to ten houses, the owners of these ten houses are now in the refugee camp. The condition of the houses is relatively good, at least the appearance is relatively complete, and they should be able to be used after repairs.

After re-planning, Oak Town has a 20-meter-wide main street. This main street can be widened. The houses on both sides of the street must leave lawns about ten to fifteen meters wide. If necessary in the future, this main street can be widened.

A 20-meter-wide street can be widened to 40 to 50 meters at any time.

In the center of the street, near the church where Rock lives, is the planned Oak Square. The square covers an area of ​​7,000 square meters, which is about the size of a football field. In fact, it can be larger, but it is not necessary. After all, Oak Town is just a town.

Small towns, not giant cities, there is no point in making them too big.

The square is surrounded by the commercial district of Oak Town. There will be shops, pubs, and some cultural and entertainment facilities here in the future. Residences will be built around the square. It is easy to build a house in Oak Town because there is no town government and you don’t even have to pay taxes. But

Rock stipulated that if you want to build a house in Oak Town, you must plant at least ten oak trees around your house.

"You need to plant trees when building a house?" Anton didn't understand why Rock asked so.

After the re-planning of Oak Town, Anton was the second permanent resident after Rock.

Through Christian, Rock has purchased a 150-acre vineyard for less than 100 pounds, which is also not a normal farm price around Cape Town.

Oak Town has Cape's first-class vineyards, with fertile soil and a suitable climate. The vineyard purchased by Rock has been in existence for more than 100 years. There is a wine cellar attached to the vineyard and corresponding winemaking equipment. Such a vineyard

, the normal price should be over seven hundred pounds.

Anton is now following in Rock's footsteps. Rock bought a farm in Oak Town, and Anton is also preparing to buy a farm in Oak Town. Anton's family has arrived in Cape Town and lives in their home on Government Street. Although Anton

His family is very satisfied with their current home, but Anton knows that Anton’s family must be lonely in Cape Town, so Anton hopes to buy a vineyard in Oak Town, so that Anton’s family

Just move out of Cape Town.

"Of course, people in Cape Town call Oak Town Stellenbosch. We can't call it that. This is our home. Oak Town is a better name, so we need to plant more oak trees to beautify the environment while also

Strengthen the significance of Oak Town." Rock is not opposed to urbanization, but Rock hates the frequent destruction of the environment because of urbanization. In Oak Town, Rock will never allow this to happen.

"Okay, just plant trees. It won't cost much anyway." Anton will not object to Roque's decision. He must implement it if he understands it, and he must implement it if he doesn't understand it.

Regarding cultural and entertainment facilities, Rock also has ideas. The first thing to start is a tavern, or a bar, the Oak Bar. This bar is prepared for the future Oak Plaza. Rock now has a vineyard and can make wine, which is just right.

Opening a bar for sale will not only enrich the entertainment industry in Oak Town, but also set a better example for the Chinese police.

It does set an example. After the construction of the Oak Bar started, Anton decided to bring his family to Oak Town and open a workshop related to stone art. It didn't matter whether there was business or not. The key was to keep his family occupied and not to worry about opening a stone art workshop.

Pudun fell ill due to boredom.

What's more, Anton firmly believes that, just like Rock described, although Oak Town seems to have nothing now, it won't be long before the population of Oak Town will slowly begin to prosper. In the future, Oak Town may

It can really become a scenic spot famous far and wide, as Rock said, and by then, everything today will be rewarded.

At the end of March, Ada sent the first batch of 20 military tents and some other daily necessities to Oak Town.

The entire Oak Town has become a large construction site. The number of Zulu people working for Rock has increased to 150. While they are building the Oak Bar, they also need to renovate the roads in Oak Town. Rock does not have the ability to harden all the roads.

, but it can still be done by repairing it again.

After the repairs were completed, the road surface was made of cobblestones from the Elsdy River. Those diligent Zulu people smashed large cobblestones and spread them on the road surface, and then used stone tampers to smooth the road surface. Such a road

It is also strong and durable. As long as it is repaired in time, it is not much worse than asphalt pavement.

The main project of the Oak Bar has been completed, and the size of the entire bar is comparable to the Table Mountain Bar. Ada became the first customer of the Oak Bar, and it was Rock who bartended the bar himself.

Rock used gin, pomegranate syrup, milk, egg whites, and some ice cubes. After a simple mixing, Rock placed a cherry decoration on the rim of the glass, and then handed the glass to Ada.

"A cup of pink beauty is given to you. I hope you will always be beautiful."

It is indeed very beautiful. After adding pomegranate molasses to the gin, the wine turns a beautiful pink color. Because of the addition of milk and egg white, there are some fine bubbles on the top, and the lower half begins to gradually change to milky white. Combined with the word "Pink Lady"

Name, Ada's eyes were full of appreciation.

"Thank you." Ada took the glass and didn't drink it in a hurry. After Roark poured herself some home-brew wine, Ada raised the glass.

Compared with Rock, Ada is a bar expert. After tasting Rock's home-brew wine, Ada was full of praise.

"This is actually not made by me. I just bought the vineyard. This is the wine made by the previous vineyard owner." Roque was a little embarrassed. He didn't know how to make wine. The wine tasting was all pretense.

"It doesn't matter, the methods of making wine are the same. The key is the quality of the grapes. The grapes here are very good." Ada didn't say it after all, but Rock knew what Ada wanted to say, damn coward.

"You can't make a bartender for every customer. Do you want me to help you find a bartender?" Ada finally said what Rock wanted to hear most.

"Thank you." Rock is welcome. This is exactly what Rock wants. Ada is the owner of the Table Mountain Bar and has many excellent bartenders. Rock not only needs bartenders, but also experienced waiters. Refugees

Although there are many women in the camp, they may not be qualified for this job.
