A city near the rainforest is not large, but it is developing vigorously. Unlike the villages far away from the towns, this city has already been developed into a tourist area with complete supporting facilities. You can see tourists with different skin colors and looks here.
Amidst the chatter coming and going, various languages were spoken one after another.
In a city that combines multiple tourist attractions, mid- to high-end hotels are indispensable.
One of the high-end hotels, Xiao Jia and the others are waiting here.
That day, they took a plane and left the village of Sulem. Instead of returning the same way, they flew directly here.
This was also the place Feng Yi had arranged in advance. After Feng Yi came out of the rain forest, they would stay here for a few more days and treat it as a normal vacation.
Xiao Jia, Xiao Ding, Cai Bin and Feng Sui arrived. After the four of them arrived, Feng Sui returned home first. Because he got the tree seeds, Feng Sui couldn't wait to go back to the orchard to do research.
Cai Bin continued to follow Xiao Jia and the others, waiting for Feng Yi here. His translation task was not over yet, but compared to the village of Sulam, the tourist resort city here would make his work easier and he would not have to wait for a long time.
Beware of moody villagers. There is also electricity and internet here, and the basic necessities of life are completely different.
In fact, Cai Bin also had many questions in his mind, but he couldn't get answers from Xiao Jia and Xiao Ding. He was waiting for Feng Yi in the hotel, and he didn't know how many days he would have to wait.
It doesn't matter, since he gets paid every day and he doesn't have to pay for the room.
But he was not idle during the waiting period. He went to inquire about the latest news and see where there was fun. After the sponsor came out of the rainforest, he would still have to play here for a few days.
Cai Bin returned to the hotel room from outside, took out several documents received today, spread them out, analyzed them, and made notes.
Just as I was remembering this, my phone rang, and the caller ID was a colleague.
"Hello? Your order has been completed? So quickly... I don't have time to drink and I will continue to follow the order!"
The other person asked: "I see that you are in the group quite frequently, and you are so busy following orders?" Cai Bin: "Waiting for the funder to come out."
The people over there were shocked and even a little excited: "Oh oh oh, your sponsor has been imprisoned?! For what reason? How many days will he be imprisoned?"
Cai Bin said seriously: "Bah! Your sponsor was just imprisoned! It's not what you think! He went into the rainforest to do research."
The other side lost interest: "Oh, weirdo."
In their view, those so-called expert researchers who run deep into the rainforest from time to time are a strange group.
"How courageous! Who is your sponsor?" The other person asked, "Entering the rainforest is a very challenging act. Seriously, what if he can't come out?"
Cai Bin also thought about what to do if the benefactor didn't arrive at the agreed place.
But he didn't dare to ask.
But he also didn't want to hear other people say such depressing words.
Just as he was about to say something, Cai Bin received a message from Xiao Jia.
After glancing over and reading the content of the message, Cai Bin became more energetic: "If I don't want to talk to you, my sponsor is out! Go to work! Bye~"
The other person hurriedly said: "Hey, wait a minute! Does your sponsor's side need anyone else for work? My side is vacant and I can take orders at any time!"
Cai Bin said perfunctorily: "Okay, I'll ask for you."
Ask a question!
How can you share your job with your colleagues?
He is the almighty Cai Bin!
After hurriedly packing up, Cai Bin took the local travel guide he had researched in the past few days and ran off to meet the sponsor.
Feng Yi came out of the rain forest and arrived at the hotel at the appointed time.
When Cai Bin came over, Feng Yi was having dinner in the hotel suite.
In fact, he had already eaten a meal just now, and this was the second round, so he ate more leisurely. When he arrived at the hotel, Feng Yi took a shower and changed from head to toe. Therefore, Cai Bin saw that Feng Yi was clean and tidy.
I don’t think there’s anything strange about my clothes and shoes.
In fact, even if someone saw Feng Yi wearing intact shoes when he walked out of the rainforest, that would be fine.
When he entered the rainforest, Feng Yi carried a large backpack, but no one knew what was packed inside.
Maybe there is a pair of shoes inside that they don't know about, and they changed them midway?
At this time, Cai Bin's attention was still on Feng Yi's health.
Two days ago, he suggested to Xiao Jia to make an appointment with a doctor to check Feng Yi, but he was rejected.
Xiao Jia just told him that Feng Yi had his own private doctor and that he would have the private doctor conduct a comprehensive examination when he returned.
Looking at it now, Feng Yi's health seems to be in good condition, and there are no obvious wounds on his body. His complexion has not decreased but has increased, and his complexion is rosier than before entering the rainforest, as if he had taken some kind of miraculous medicine!
Cai Bin took out the travel information he had compiled and asked about the next arrangements: "Brother Yi, what do you want to do?"
Feng Yi said: "Let's rest for two days."
I wandered around in the rainforest, didn't have much sleep time, and was a little poor in food.
Now that I have the conditions, I need to eat more and sleep more to replenish my physical strength.
Cai Bin can understand Feng Yi's choice.
In Cai Bin's view, the donor really needed to recuperate. After all, he must be quite exhausted after surviving in the rainforest for so many days.
"After two days of rest, you can go out and have some fun." Feng Yi looked at the travel information compiled by Cai Bin: "It's all good. I'll think about it in the next two days. Oh, and do you know anyone who knows the local area better?
people?"
Cai Bin: "I know the local area very well!"
Feng Yi shook his head: "I mean, people who have a deeper understanding of the humanities and history here."
Cai Bin affirmed: "I have research on local humanities and history. Although I am not as good as professionals, as long as you give me time, I can definitely collect information that will satisfy you!"
Feng Yi thought about it. He didn't come here specifically to study humanities and history. He could just let Cai Bin collect the information.
So Feng Yi said: "The scope does not need to be too broad. You can first search for information related to ancient rivers."
Ancient river channels are river channels that were abandoned after the river changed its course.
In other words, it is not a river now, but there was one there a long time ago. Cai Bin accepted the task.
It would be easy to just look up ancient river channels. He could find people in this field to search for information.
The sponsor is really a researcher, and he doesn’t know what he has researched in the rainforest, but he wants to check the ancient river channel.
Two days later.
After eating and sleeping well, Feng Yi received the ancient river course information from Cai Bin.
In the past two days, Cai Bin asked professionals in hydraulics and river dynamics. These are all the information collected in two days. Time is limited, and he can only collect so much, but if the funder has any follow-up requirements, he will also
It can be done.
Feng Yi first glanced at the information and took out a few of them to look at them carefully. In fact, he was just curious about which places the ancestors who had been here were most likely to wander along.
When he was in his original form, he preferred to be active in forests and surrounding environments where there were rivers nearby. I wonder if his ancestors were the same as him.
Looking at the ancient river channel information, Feng Yi secretly compared the places he ran in the rain forest in his mind.
【I've been here before.】
[Ah, I have been to this place too, but I didn’t expect it to be an ancient river! I can’t tell it at all now!]
[The river is still there, but now it is just a small wild river, not as wide as the information says.]
The information may not be completely correct, but is only used as a reference.
Feng Yi actually didn't take it too seriously, he just happened to meet him and wanted to know some information. He came here anyway.
Cai Bin, who was waiting quietly next to him, saw Feng Yi looking at the ancient river channel information, and his heart moved. When he went to search for these information in the past two days, he also heard some opinions.
So Cai Bin tried his best and said: "Many mining areas are related to ancient river channels, and there are several local diamond mines."
Feng Yi looked up.
Cai Bin perked up and continued: "This is nothing new. If we push the time forward a few decades, there will be more mines and unlicensed miners everywhere. That is to say, the control will be stricter later, and then
The mines have almost been mined, and the mining areas with no output have been closed in large numbers. The mines that still exist now
The market is looking for transformation.”
Feng Yi was curious: "Transformation?"
Cai Bin nodded and said: "Some of the mines that have been closed have been turned into scenic spots, and some are used for other purposes. Some of the mines that are still open now have chosen to be open to tourists. The mining areas cannot generate profits, and they are regulated by the regulatory authorities and some
Social organizations have been heavily attacked and faced with operational difficulties, so they thought of this move.”
While talking, Cai Bin took out his mobile phone and opened a travel-related APP, clicked on one of the pages, and handed it to Feng Yi to read:
"To experience diamond mining, you only need to pay the entrance fee. Visitors can take away the diamonds they dig, and the mine will help them issue certificates. They are all legal income. This type of tourism project is quite popular, and many people will go here.
Give it a try, and if you dig up diamonds, you will probably be able to offset all your travel expenses."
Feng Yi was really interested: "Digging diamonds? Can you find them?"
Seeing the investor's behavior, Cai Bin quickly told him all the information he had learned, including the large and small mines he had learned about that could be used for this project.
"It is said that some tourists have found it, but most people have found nothing. They just want to experience it. Brother Yi, if you are interested, I can find someone in the local area who is more familiar with this type of tourism project to come and ask."
"Okay, let's find one."
Cai Bin took the phone and went out to make contact.
Not long after, a young man about twenty years old came over.
Cai Bin has already told Feng Yi his identity information.
This man's name is Mark, surnamed Ma. He is of mixed blood from three countries and can speak four languages. His grandfather is Chinese.
Mark is not very old, but he is skilled in business. He usually takes tourists to various mines to experience diamond digging projects.
The meeting place was an outdoor restaurant. Feng Yi was wearing sunglasses, but Mark didn't recognize him.
I usually meet a lot of people, but I didn’t have a deep impression from the news I read online. At most, I think Feng Yi looks a little familiar. That’s it. There are too many people who look alike. As for the people wearing sunglasses, here
Six out of ten people.
The sun is too bright outside.
At this moment, Mark only sees the task, which is related to his remuneration.
Mark directly opened a mine distribution map and recommended several mines that were not too far away to Feng Yi. These mines were not big, but the tourist experience was okay, and some tourists actually dug up diamonds.
Feng Yi listened to his introduction, compared the maps in the ancient river information, and then thought about the scenes that appeared in the dream, raised his hand and pointed to another icon: "Where is this mine?"
Mark paused and lowered his voice and said: "This mine is a medium-sized mine, larger than the ones I introduced earlier, but the project experience may not be as good as the previous ones."
As for more, I won’t say anything more. I will keep it secret.
Cai Bin secretly made a gesture to Feng Yi.
These local business people have local rules, Cai Bin told Feng Yi in advance.
Feng Yi turned his head to signal Xiao Jia.
Xiao Jia took out a few bills and pushed them in front of Mark.
Mark accepted it smoothly and cleared his throat: "I don't recommend tourists from out of town to go to their place. That mine can't produce diamonds. It has changed hands several times. The business model is different now. Online
The advertising has made it popular, but in fact, diamonds have long since been dug out. Those that appear in the promotional video, well, are just publicity effects."
These are all diamonds deliberately put in by people from the mines. If you find someone to cooperate with the show, they will deceive you foreign tourists!
Feeling that local minerals cannot be completely sold for money, Mark said: "Actually, there are tourists who know this, but they think that even if the mine is fake and deliberately throws bait into it, as long as it is dug up, even if it is a small diamond, then
It’s also money. Boss, don’t you think so?
"The mine owners want to make money, and the tourists want to experience it. It's a pleasure to go both ways!
"Life, don't take it too seriously."
Feng Yi smiled: "Is it really the diamonds that the mine threw into it?"
"Probably." Mark picked up the water glass and drank.
Feng Yi gestured to Xiao Jia.
Xiao Jia skillfully took out a few more bills.
Mark put down the water glass and took the banknotes smoothly again, smiling.
"There are definitely real diamonds, but only for commercials. Other times, I believe they throw other things in there, such as broken glass shards from the bar, and stone slag dug out from the river by the truckload... Well, it adds to the fun.
sex."
The tourists were excited and thought they had dug something, but they discovered it was glass. It was indeed exciting, and it was quite interesting.
However, Feng Yi's focus was not on these interests, but on Mark's pause just now.
"Besides glass and stone debris, what else did they throw into the mine?" Feng Yi asked.
Mark continued to drink tea.
Xiao Jia continued to take out the money.
Mark first looked around cautiously, then at the bare dinner plate in front of Feng Yi. Seeing that no one was eating at the table, he continued:
"Throw away everything. Small ones, a bit hard, small particles like stones stuck to the sand, you can't tell what they are when digging. Only by washing can you separate diamonds from other debris.
"Most tourists only experience the diamond digging project and clean the diamonds they dug instead of digging for diamonds directly in the muddy water. So sometimes they have wrong perceptions when they dig out some harder particles.
"According to what Xiaoma has heard and confirmed, the things people in the mine threw into it include but are not limited to stones, tooth decay, dry foot skin, etc."
Cai Bin Cai Bin wants to vomit.
Feng Yi also had a sullen face.
Mark asked: "So boss, do you still want to go now?"
Feng Yi: "Let's go see it first."
Mark: "...Okay."
You pay and you are the boss.
After deciding on the itinerary, Feng Yi asked Xiao Jia to rent a car first.
Xiaojia has made a reservation in advance, so just drive over.
While waiting for the bus, Mark did not sit still and continued to expand his business and recommended seaside tourist areas to Feng Yi.
For hotels, Mark can get bonuses, especially for bringing such wealthy customers there, the bonuses will be even higher.
Mark said enthusiastically: "Boss, do you live by the sea? No? Well, you can have a good experience. The seaside is a completely different scenery from the jungle. The sea view and beach here are different from those elsewhere. We can also provide private services for you to enjoy."
Your own private beach…”
Feng Yi: "I have an island."
mark:"…"
Disrespectful!
He thought that this employer was just a little rich, but he didn't expect that he was also a rich man! Looking at his age, was he the second generation of rich people or the third generation of rich people? Or was he a child of some aristocratic family?
It should be that he just has money but not enough status and ostentation.
Mark thought in his mind and smiled enthusiastically:
"Then let me tell you a joke!"
Since there is no temptation in material terms, let’s try some small spices to soothe your mood. “As you all know from other places, we have a lot of rainforests here. Even if you are not in the rainforest, you can often see snakes. Snake hunting skills are the most typical.
There are two types, strangulation and venom.
"Those with strong strangulation power are represented by pythons. Those with deadly venom are represented by cobras.
"But boss, do you know why snakes with particularly powerful strangulation power don't have venom? Or, why are snakes with deadly venom not strong enough to strangle? Even the King Cobra, of the same size, can't compare to those snakes.
Specializing in strangulation skills."
Mark paused skillfully.
Seeing that everyone else was looking at him and focusing on him, Mark was very satisfied with this reaction.
Seeing that Feng Yi was silent, Cai Bin replied: "A snake only needs to have one of these skills to survive, it doesn't need to have both."
Mark: "But, why aren't there people who are top-notch in both skills? Why aren't there such invincible beings?!"
Mark said seriously: "You can imagine, if a snake has both powerful strangulation power and deadly venom, then when it hunts, does it strangle first? Or does it use venom first?"
As he said this, Mark laughed "hahaha".
"The short hunting time is not enough for it to use its brain to think!
"Whether it's strangulation or venom, by the time it decides, the prey will have already run away!"
Cai Bin also said "hahahahaha".
Feng Yi had no expression on his face.
Xiao Ding watched quietly from the side, his face seemed to have written: How brave!
