Every day is one step closer to reality

A city near the rainforest, small in area, but developing vigorously.

Unlike those villages far away from towns, this area has already been developed into a tourist area with complete supporting facilities. Here you can see tourists with different skin colors and appearances, and a variety of languages ​​come and go among the conversations coming and going.

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 from the village of Sulem, and instead of returning the same way, they flew directly here.

This was also the place Feng Yi had arranged in advance. When Feng Yi comes out of the rain forest, they will stay here for a few more days and treat it as a normal vacation.

Xiao Jia, Xiao Ding, Cai Bin and Feng Sui, after the four of them arrived, Feng Suo returned home first. Because he got the tree seeds, Feng Shou couldn't wait to go back to the orchard to do research.

Cai Bin continued to follow Xiao Jia and others, waiting for Feng Yi here. His translation task is not over yet, but compared to the village of Sulem, the tourist resort city here will make his work easier, as he does not have to constantly guard against the 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 the answers from Xiao Jia and Xiao Ding. I honestly waited for Feng Yi in the hotel, and I didn’t know how many days I would have to wait.

It doesn't matter, he gets paid every day anyway, and he doesn't have to pay for the room.

But while waiting, he was not idle, asking for some latest news and seeing where there was fun. When the sponsor comes out of the rainforest, he will 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, my phone rang, and the caller ID was a colleague.

"Hello? Have you completed your order? So soon... If you don't drink, I don't have time. I'll continue to follow the order!"

The other person asked: "I see that you bubble up in the group quite frequently. Are you so busy following orders?"

Cai Bin: "Waiting for the sponsor to come out."

The people over there were shocked, and even a little excited: "Oh, oh, your sponsor has been imprisoned?! For what reason? How many days will he be imprisoned?"

Cai Bin said seriously: "Bah! The financier 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 come to 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! 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 you."

Just ask!

How can you share your job with your colleagues!

He is the almighty Cai Bin!

After hurriedly tidying up, Cai Bin took the local travel guide he had researched over the past few days and ran off to meet the benefactor.

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 eating in the hotel suite.

In fact, I have already eaten one meal just now. This is the second round, so I can eat more leisurely.

After arriving at the hotel, Feng Yi took a shower and changed from head to toe. Therefore, Cai Bin didn't find anything strange when he saw Feng Yi's clean 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 was a pair of shoes inside that they didn'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 personal doctor, and he would ask the private doctor to conduct a comprehensive examination when he returned.

Looking at it now, Feng Yi's health seems to be okay, and there are no obvious wounds on his body. His complexion has increased instead of decreasing, and his complexion is rosier than before entering the rainforest, as if he had taken some magical 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 was wandering around in the rainforest, didn't have much sleep time, and was a little poor in food.

Now that you have the conditions, eat more and sleep more to replenish your physical strength.

Cai Bin can understand Feng Yi's choice.

In Cai Bin's view, the financial owner really needs to recuperate. After all, surviving in the rainforest for so many days must be quite exhausting.

"After two days of rest, you can go out for 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, someone who has 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 could think 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 should first search for information related to ancient rivers."

Ancient river channels are river channels that were abandoned after the river was diverted.

In other words, it is not a river channel now, but there was one in that place a long time ago.

Cai Bin accepted the task.

It would be easy to just check the 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 rain forest, 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 the information collected in the past two days. Time is limited and only so much can be collected, but if the donor has subsequent requirements, he can also complete them.

Feng Yi first glanced at the information briefly, then took out a few of them and looked 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 places with rivers nearby in forests and surrounding environments. I wonder if the 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! You can’t see 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 came across it and wanted to know some information. Come all come.

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 tentatively 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 The mines are almost exhausted, and mining areas with no output have been closed in large numbers. The mines that still exist are seeking 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 blocked 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 find, 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, it will probably offset all the 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, that is, they just want to experience it. Brother Yi, if you are interested, I can ask local people who are 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 at an outdoor restaurant. Feng Yi was wearing sunglasses, but Mark didn't recognize him.

I usually meet a lot of people, but I only read the news on the Internet, so I don’t have a deep impression. At most, I think Feng Yi looks a little familiar. That's all, there are too many people who look alike. As for people wearing sunglasses, there are six out of ten people here.

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 are not big, but the tourist experience is okay, and some tourists have actually dug up diamonds.

Feng Yi listened to his introduction, compared the maps in the ancient river information, and then thought about the pictures 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 talk about it. A secretive look.

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 moved 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, and it has changed hands several times. The business model is different now. On the Internet 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, and they are just trying to trick you foreign tourists by finding someone to coordinate with them!

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?

“Mine owners want to make money, 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, took the banknotes smoothly again, and smiled:

"There are definitely real diamonds, but they are only for advertising. Other times, I believe they threw other things in there, such as broken glass slag from the bar, and stone slag dug out by the river by the truckload... Well, increase Fun.”

The tourists were excited and thought they had dug something, but they discovered it was glass. It's true that I was excited, 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 slag, 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 on 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 washing can separate diamonds from other debris.

"Most tourists only experience the diamond digging project and clean the diamonds they dig out. They don't directly search for diamonds 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 throw 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 frowned.

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. He 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 seaside? No? Hey, 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 his employer was just a little rich, but he didn't expect that he was actually a rich man! Looking at age, is this the second generation of rich people or the third generation of rich people? Or a descendant 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 use some small spices to soothe your mood.

"Anyone who comes from other places knows that there are many rainforests here, and even if you are not in the rainforest, you can often see snakes. The most typical two types of snake hunting skills are strangulation and venom.

"Those with strong strangulation power are represented by pythons. Those with deadly venom are all cobras.

"But boss, you know, why don't snakes with particularly powerful strangulation power have no 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, 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 followed with "hahahaha".

Feng Yi had no expression on his face.

Xiao Ding watched quietly from the side, his face seemed to have written: How brave!

Today’s twenty-four solar terms are [Jingzhe].

Happy birthday Feng Yi!
