Chapter 203 198. Flying Snow in the Vast Sea (37)
Cowboy has research on this car. He said: "If this is the original cut steel bar, it will be amazing. It shows that the car is indeed a good car produced after the Vietnam War."
"This steel rod is the protective umbrella for the soldiers when driving in the enemy-occupied area. There are many forests and grass in Vietnam. The guerrillas or infiltration teams often tie steel cables to the trees on both sides of the road. The height is just above the neck of the driver. location."
"In this way, at dusk or night when visibility is poor, if the driver is driving at high speed, it will be difficult for him to see the slender steel rope. If he does not notice, all the heads in the car will be cut off by the steel rope."
As he spoke, the cowboy made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Harris nodded and said, "Yes, this steel rod is designed to destroy the steel cable."
Old Wang thought it didn’t make sense, but he didn’t need to ask. The handsome Mexican saw his doubts and said, “That’s wrong. Doesn’t the jeep have fenders? The glass is still bulletproof. Could the steel wires strangle the fenders?”
Lao Wang nodded, this was also his idea.
The cowboy laughed and said, "You know, this car is mostly used for the Vietnam War, and the climate in Vietnam is hot and humid, with plenty of water vapor, and there are mud and dirt roads everywhere. The off-road vehicle drives fast and fiercely, and it is easy to splash the mud. Obstructing the view on the baffle, so a lot of times it goes down."
Harris nodded and said, "Yes, that's what my dad said."
He was a well-behaved white man, and after Wang Bo and his party got to know about it, he introduced the details of the car, and finally said: "I just had a new maintenance on the car, and the paint was just changed, using Hummer green paint. The engine is fine, but the gearbox is not so good, some parts have to be replaced."
The cowboy got on the car and tried it, and came back and said to Wang Bo: "The car can drive, but it can't drive fast. At least the transmission gear needs to be replaced."
"Can it be replaced in New Zealand?" Lao Wang was worried that this kind of car would not be able to replace parts if it was out of production for too long.
The cowboy nodded and said, "No problem, the Jeep has a wide range of accessories."
This is basically no problem, Lao Wang asked Harris to take out the procedures to take a look, and the transfer can be carried out.
It's rather weird, the transfer procedure after buying a car in New Zealand is at the post office, and what's even more weird is that Lao Wang only found out when he checked the procedures that he didn't have a driver's license, so he couldn't buy a second-hand car in New Zealand.
However, the price of this car was not high, so he put it under the name of the police station, and it was planned to be used as a patrol car anyway.
Wang Bo went to withdraw 22,000 yuan, a thick bag of money. He handed it to Harris and said, "You can count it."
Harris saw him go to the bank to withdraw money, but he didn't count it after he got it. He just looked at it and said with a smile: "Oh my God, thank you my dad, it's the first time I've seen so much cash in my life!"
Few people in New Zealand use cash. Credit cards, online banking and electronic payments are very advanced. Some people can't use fifty-dollar and hundred-dollar banknotes throughout the year. Here, 20-dollar banknotes are the most popular.
When we broke up, Harris said sincerely: "Mr. Wang, I hope you remember what I said just now. This car has not submitted the WOF for the past year. You have to make up for it yourself."
WOF means forced vehicle inspection. New Zealand pays the car every six months. If the payment is not made, the car will be impounded once it is found by the police.
Wang Bo said he remembered, and Harris said with a relaxed smile: "That's no problem, goodbye, I'm going back to prepare my dessert house, with 20,000 yuan, I can be the boss with a little more loan. "
Hearing him say several times that he wants to open a dessert house by himself, Lao Wang's heart moved, and he said, "Hey, man, I introduced myself, right, the mayor of a new town?"
Harris nodded and said, "Yes, I know."
Old Wang said: "Then are you interested in opening a dessert shop in my town? I think the pressure of competition is less than in Christchurch. As for the audience, don't worry, I will provide you with a shop on Highway 8 for two years. There is no rent fee, and there are preferential taxes and fees.”
For dessert shops, the biggest expenses are rent and taxes. Harrison was moved and asked, "Is this really the case? I think I might try it."
Rent-free and tax-free, which means that he doesn't need to invest much in the early stage, and he can leave if he can't do it in the small town.
In other words, Harris can take the opportunity provided by Sunset Town as a test. It is good to make money, but he is just wasting time if he cannot make money, and for New Zealanders, there is plenty of time.
Lao Wang didn't expect the other party to agree so easily. As a result, his trip to Christchurch went smoothly. He beat the rabbits, not only bought a police car, but also hooked up with a pastry chef who didn't exist in the town.
The jeep had some problems and could not drive fast. He dragged it with a pickup truck. On the way back, because he was happy, he learned that the road passed the famous snow mountain hot spring in New Zealand. He decided to take a few people to enjoy it.
Snow Mountain Hot Springs is called Tekapo Hot Springs. It is located on the shore of Lake Tekapo, backed by Mount Cook, the highest peak in the Southern Alps that is covered with snow all year round. The scenery is beautiful and it is one of the best places to enjoy hot springs in winter.
The South Island has plenty of water and has many large lakes, such as the twin lakes on the west side of Sunset Town - Lake Wakana and Lake Hawea, Lake Otai on the east side, and Lake Wakatipu in Queenstown. Sapphire Lake Moana, and besides that fucking Lake Tekapo.
Lake Tekapo is the second largest lake flowing from north to south in the northern part of the MacKenzie Basin. It is supplied by the Drey River and is 700 meters above sea level. The drainage area can reach 83 square kilometers. It is located in the Mount Cook Basin and MacKenzie. Heartland.
There are several hot springs around the lake. Wang Bo and his party went to the most prestigious Mount Cook Village. It is a beautiful small village facing the lake and backed by snow-capped mountains.
They bought the car smoothly, and they returned that day, so when they arrived around Lake Tekapo, it was the evening of the day.
At this time, Lake Tekapo and Cook Snow Mountain are the most beautiful. The soft winter sun shines on the peaks, the white snow exudes holy light, and the emerald green lake carries golden brilliance, complementing each other.
And at the mouths of several hot springs not far away, milky white water mist rises mistyly. Wang Bo looked around and couldn't help sighing: "Hundred waves in the vast sea, thousands of miles of snow in the Yinshan Mountains, beautiful!"
Cowboys and Mexican pretty boys have recently been forced to learn Chinese, and they probably understand a little bit. Although they don't understand the specific meaning of this poem, they can understand the artistic conception in it.
Charlie thought about it, and came up with a poem: "The snowy mountains are solitary, and the sun is setting on the great lake!"
Wang Bo gave him the middle finger, what is this riding on a horse?
Charlie was proud: "I have read 300 Tang poems by heart, and even if I don't know how to write poems, I will slip away."
Now the pressure is all on the cowboy and the Mexican handsome guy. The cowboy swallowed his saliva, and after thinking for a while, there is only one sentence: "Fack, beautiful, this place is really beautiful!"
Mexican Pretty Boy: "As beautiful as a lover's Mimi."
Old Wang and Charlie: "..."
