Shenhao UP Lord

Chapter 308
Although the government has tightened its control, many people can still make money by taking advantage of it if you have the right timing.For example, after the land reform, there were many down-and-out white people in Zimbabwe. After his farm was robbed, he wanted to flee the country as soon as possible, so he began to sell his property, including his own house.

If the house is 6000 square meters, and the white man advertises that it is selling for 200 million Zimbabwe, then the equivalent of 20 U.S. dollars can be returned that day, but after one night, the currency depreciates, and the 200 million Zimbabwe is only worth 2 U.S. dollars.

The next morning, someone came to pay, and he paid 200 million Zimbabwean. The white man didn't know it. When he went to the market to exchange money, he found out that he only got 2 US dollars. His compound was sold.

At that time, our family also worked as a travel agency, and found that the same is true for air tickets.Air Zimbabwe's round-trip air ticket to return home, if it is said to be 1000 million Zimbabwe dollars, is equivalent to 1000 US dollars at a certain time.

However, the airline's settlement system is settled every 15 days, so we don't need to pay the airline immediately.After we received 1000 million Zimbabwe dollars, we exchanged it for 1000 U.S. dollars on the same day.

On the settlement day 15 days later, I only need to take out 15 US dollars to exchange for 1000 million Zimbabwean.

Of course the airline is state-run, so the state is exploiting you, and you are exploiting the state.

I was still studying and working as a trainee tour guide part-time.

That day I drove my own car from my home to the airport. It was the afternoon of October in the dry season, the hottest time of the year, and the city of Waterfall where my home is located is also the hottest city in Zimbabwe. At the highest point, the temperature is about 10 degrees Celsius.

Just then, I saw a father and son on the road. The father was wearing slippers and holding a pair of shoes in his hand, pulling his son along.Let me explain here that in some poorer places in Zimbabwe, these people are reluctant to wear out a pair of shoes, so when they go shopping in the city, they will bring a pair of slippers or straw sandals with them.

When they entered the city, they wore normal shoes, and when they left the city, they changed into worn shoes and walked the rest of the way home.

At two or three o'clock in the afternoon in the dry season, the ground is very hot, even scorching the soles of the feet, and the father didn't wear a hat, so the top of his head and his feet were scorched.

Seeing this scene, I suddenly felt compassion.I parked the car and asked them where they were going.

He said he was going to a small village near the airport.I happened to know that village, and I happened to be going to the airport myself, so I said I would give them a ride.But because my car has a low chassis, I can't take the dirt roads in the village, so I can only put them on the fork road at the entrance of the village, and they need to walk the rest of the road by themselves.

The father quickly thanked him and said that it was no problem. This had already saved them several hours of travel.

Then we hit the road.When I arrived at the entrance of the village, it was very coincidental. As soon as I sent them off the car, my car turned off, and I couldn't start it no matter how hard I tried.

I was also very anxious to catch the plane, but I told him: It’s okay, you should go home when you should go home, this is not your problem, my car broke down, so forget it if I can’t catch the plane.

After they left, I picked up the phone and started looking for a friend to pick me up. After about 25 minutes, my emergency vehicle hadn't arrived yet, when suddenly there was a loud movement in the distance, and there was a smoky atmosphere.

When I was wondering what happened, I looked over there and gradually realized that it was this black friend who came over with seven or eight cows and a dozen black people.

He told me that we will pull the car for you!
I was shocked: "How do you pull the car? The airport is far away."

"It's okay, so many of us, even if we push, we can push the car to the airport. I want to thank you, I walk my son very hard, but God loves me, he gave me you, you are like my Like an angel, so I will be your angel too."

A kind of indescribable emotion rose in my heart. Who said we Africans are stupid, who said we Africans are not good?

Our African brothers are really cute and kind!

Of course, I didn't let him push the cart, and it really couldn't be pushed.Later, an ambulance came and towed the car away. The plane failed, and I quietly returned to the city by myself.But this incident really made me feel that this country is worthy of my love, and the people of this place are worthy of my liking.

"Brothers, what was your childhood dream?"

"Antarctic scientific research, climbing Mount Everest, flying over the primeval jungle..."

"Brother Xu invited a fierce man today!"

"Set up a foundation to devote full time to adventure and rescue."

"Wang Ke, please!"

"Actually, my life up to now is still influenced by the heroic dream in my childhood decades ago. As early as the 80s, there was no Mr. Pei, no wilderness survival reality show, no outdoor club, and I was obsessed with adventure in my bones."

"Later I was admitted to the University of Posts and Telecommunications. There was a gliding club next to the south gate of the university! I immediately ran to knock on the door and said I wanted to learn gliding!"

"Every weekend since then, I have practiced paragliding with everyone in the suburbs of BJ. In fact, the club's conditions are very poor. Without paragliders, we found some old parachutes; the rock nails used for rock climbing are also discarded rock faces after other people's training. We don’t even have professional coaches, just a few people climb up the mountain, and then push people down to make them fly.

"I was very nervous when I flew for the first time. How nervous was it? Before landing, my mind went blank and I didn't retain any memory. But my dream of flying finally came true, and I was very excited."

"After practicing to overcome the tension, I began to remember more details, because every flight is very beautiful. We first flew a small hill of more than ten meters, then the top of the mountain, and then Mangshan of the Ming Tombs Reservoir. "

"The air currents move up and down in the air. You have to chase them and control them. This game of ups and downs is very quiet. You are like a bird, blending into the sky."

After graduating from university, I worked in communications, and the company made a lot of money, which made me condition the world to fly, dive, and climb peaks.It can be said that you have the most ideal life.

But that all changed in 08.

There was a big earthquake that year, and many of my friends and I participated in rescue operations.When I realized that my interests could be combined with social responsibility, my enthusiasm for charity rescue was out of control.

So what if you play well by yourself?
Wouldn't it be better if it had social value?For me it's still a hobby, just in a different form.

The course of my life has completely changed!
In order to do a better rescue, I kept buying better equipment, doing more training, and stepping into it step by step.Later, it was not enough to do it in China, so we decided to go overseas.

How to go overseas?
The first time I went abroad, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.8 occurred in Mandalay, Myanmar. Because there was no precedent, we went to Myanmar with a tourist visa, went straight to the consulate in Mandalay, knocked on the door and said that we are from the private rescue team, and we want to come. Disaster relief!

The Consul General was stunned and had a very good idea, but I have never encountered such a situation!You wait a moment.

After all, go to the second floor.Half an hour later, the consul general went downstairs to support us on behalf of the consulate!
After three days we were allowed to enter the affected area.
