Chapter 373: Lilac Island, Tanzania

The sister-in-law from Hangzhou is not bothered either. As long as she knows something, she will break it into pieces and explain it thoroughly to you. If she doesn’t know, it doesn’t matter. She will ask the local waiters or even familiar customers here and get the answer.

I will tell Hong Tao the answer later.

The food here tastes okay, at least it tastes like Chinese food. As for what's good and what's bad, Hong Tao didn't feel it. He basically relied on instinct to stuff the meal into his mouth and chew it.

He chewed it and swallowed it. Boss Liu and the others didn't pay attention to what dishes they ordered. His focus was entirely on chatting with this sister-in-law.

In fact, this sister-in-law has been here for less than 2 years and has not even visited the city of Dar es Salaam. She is blind to many of the questions raised by Hong Tao, especially about hunting.

There are not as many as Hong Tao. It seems that this hunting activity is only limited to a small group of people. For these ordinary people, they think about how to live a better and more comfortable life every day. No one

Care about things that are too far behind your own income level.

However, she still knew something about Zanzibar Island, because when she first arrived here, her brother-in-law took her there for a walk. This sister-in-law gave Hong Tao and the others a good idea of ​​what they wanted to do on the island.

My suggestion is that the transportation on the island is not very convenient. If you want to have a more comfortable time, it is best to call the hotel on the island in advance, book a room first, and then arrange a taxi.

In response to his sister-in-law's suggestion, Hong Tao immediately followed his advice. Taking an advertisement that his sister-in-law found for him, he called a hotel on the island called Serena Hotel, booked three rooms and a taxi, and made an appointment for tomorrow.

Take the first ferry to the island in the morning.

After finishing lunch, Hong Tao and his party said goodbye to their sister-in-law in Hangzhou. Originally, Hong Tao and the others wanted to leave some gifts or something for her, but their luggage had not been hauled over yet. They only had some simple items they brought with them, and there was nothing at all.

What gifts can I give?

You said to tip more, Hong Tao felt that this did not reflect the feelings of compatriots, so he patted his chest and promised that if he stayed here after returning from hunting, he would definitely come to her restaurant and give her a tip.

She came back with fresh prey.

After leaving the restaurant, Hong Tao and the other two went back to the hotel without going anywhere. On the one hand, Boss Liu and Boss Fat were indeed a little tired after two days of transit. On the other hand, the sister-in-law from Hangzhou just now also emphasized that if

If you don't understand the language and don't have a reliable guide to lead you, it's best not to wander around other parts of the city as it's not safe.

Early the next morning, after Hong Tao and the other two had breakfast at the hotel, they walked directly to the small pier and bought tickets for the Kilimanjaro luxury ferry for US$60 per person, first class round trip.

After waiting for a while, the Kilimanjaro arrived. Hong Tao took a look and realized that this was not a ferry. It was a slightly larger yacht. It was divided into two floors, and the upper floor was the first-class cabin.

The only difference is that in the first class cabin, you can sit on the leather sofa and watch DVDs. There is also air conditioning to enjoy.

By the way, the climate in Tanzania is completely different from ours in the northern hemisphere. The temperature here is more than 20 degrees all year round. There is no spring, summer, autumn and winter, only dry season and rainy season.

In the area north of Dar es Salaam, there is a long rainy season from March to May every year. There will be heavy rain almost every morning. By noon, the wind and rain will subside and the sun will shine. Then in the evening, dark clouds will begin again; and every year

November to December is the short rainy season, and rains are frequent, but not as heavy as the long rainy season.

In the area south of Dar es Salaam, there is basically only one long rainy season and one dry season every year. The rainy season is from November to May of the following year, and the rest of the time is the dry season.

And Hong Tao and the others arrived here in January. According to the climate, it is not very good, because December to April is the hottest time here. The temperature at noon can reach more than 30 degrees, which is basically the same as summer in Beijing.

Almost. But fortunately, the temperature difference here is relatively large, the days are hot and the nights are relatively cool, a bit like the Xinjiang region of our country.

"Holy shit, what year is this movie from? Just show me this and charge me an extra $15! It's so deceiving!" After entering the cabin, Hong Tao saw the movie on the TV at a glance. It was actually a movie.

It's a Hong Kong martial arts film, but it's a little older, maybe it was shot in the 1980s and 1990s.

"Have you seen it? What's your name?" The fat boss didn't raise any objections. On the contrary, he looked at it very seriously.

"I haven't seen it, who cares to read this stuff?" Hong Tao curled his lips.

"Then shut up, this isn't very good to watch...hehehehe." The fat boss didn't ask for the name of the movie, and immediately turned his head. He craned his neck and stared at the Wuhan University scene on the TV, and occasionally said:

A few giggles.

"It's so shameful. No one in China will watch it for free. You come here and spend more than 100 yuan to watch this. Do you understand?" Hong Tao saw the virtue of the fat boss and quickly moved to the side and sat together.

It was so embarrassing. There were not only Hong Tao and the other three in the first class cabin, but also an old white couple.

The boat sailed for about an hour and a half, and just when the fat boss had started watching the second movie, the pier of Zanzibar Island arrived. Hong Tao and his party slowly got off the boat, sandwiched between a group of black people and white people.

When they wanted to go straight out of the pier to find a taxi to pick them up, they were stopped by two black men in uniform.

"What's going on here?" The fat boss was frightened by his last encounter at the American airport. When he saw that he was stopped again, his fat face began to turn pale again.

"Oh, it's okay. It seems that you still need entry registration here. Wait for me to ask." Hong Tao quickly comforted the fat boss. This man's figure is inversely proportional to his courage. If he comes to the United States more times, he will probably be the same.

Don't go back to China, you will be scared to death during the trip.

After arguing with the two black policemen for a long time, Hong Tao didn't understand whether they were speaking English or German, let alone asked what was going on. At this time, he was in the first class with Hong Tao and the others.

The old couple in the cabin extended a helping hand and explained to Hong Tao in a standard London accent.

It turns out that although this is considered part of Tanzania, Zanzibar Island has a high degree of autonomy, so all foreigners who come here, including Tanzanians, must register for entry as long as they are not residents of the island. But the old couple from the UK also

I told Hong Tao that this was just a routine procedure, and there was basically nothing he could fail to do. All he had to do was give them a stamp in his passport.

"You're a bitch and you still have to build a memorial arch! You've fallen into a well, and you still have your ears hanging out to keep an eye on you!" After listening to Hong Tao's story, the fat boss immediately became energetic again and stared at the man.

Xiao Yuanyuan expressed his dissatisfaction with this red tape.

"Please keep your voice down. If we meet someone who understands Chinese, we will be in trouble." Hong Tao has finally seen through this fat boss. He is a standard timid guy who still yells. He doesn't know what he is doing.

How did you earn your share of the family fortune? This God is really unreliable sometimes.

"Does this mean there are still people who can understand Chinese?" The fat boss didn't believe Hong Tao's words.

"That's hard to say. You don't know, right? This is China's old friend. China has provided aid to Africa since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Look at that old man, maybe he understands Chinese." Hong Tao always has an idea when he makes up lies.

, pointing at an old black man standing not far away for the fat boss to see.

"Fat man, don't let him scare you. If you are as brave as your mouth, nothing will happen." Boss Liu, who was standing behind, couldn't stand it anymore and spoke out to expose Hong Tao's lies.

"I'm going to beat you up and make fun of your fat uncle every day." Only then did the fat boss realize that it was Hong Tao who was trying to scare him. He became so angry that he even stopped being afraid of the black policeman next to him and began to scold him.

Sure enough, it was just like what the old British couple said. It said it was an immigration check, but it actually just stamped a stamp on your passport without even asking. Soon, Hong Tao and the others had their passports stamped smoothly.

An official seal from the Zanzibar government, and then it was released. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
