Chapter 612 First Arrival in New Zealand

The 12-hour ultra-long flight time made Li Chungang a little exhausted, and his face was full of tiredness that could not be concealed. When the three of them arrived at the airport, they found the local bodyguard who had been waiting for a long time at the tourist information center. Tourist guide.

"Welcome the three of you to New Zealand. I am your tour guide, Ethan. The car is already waiting outside. You can go to the hotel for a short rest. How about I take you to a dinner with New Zealand characteristics? "

"That's good, let's put our luggage away."

"Mr. Ethan, there is a question that I don't know whether to ask or not..."

"It's okay, boss, just ask! Besides, the boss can just call me Ethan, don't look at me like this, in fact, I'm only twenty-seven years old!"

"Twenty-seven!? I think if you say thirty-seven, people will believe you." But of course, Li Chungang would not say this in front of this big man who seems to be at least two meters tall and whose arms are thicker than his own thighs. Speaking in front of me, I just wandered in my heart, "Ethan, I want to know if you are a Maori from New Zealand? After all, I see your arms and those on your neck..."

Tattoos are often synonymous with dudes, gangsters, and bad boys in China. In the eyes of the older generation, as long as they have tattoos on their bodies, they basically don't look like a good person.

In fact, this is a narrow cognition. Tattoos should really be called "tattoos", commonly known as tattoos, and they are called nirvana in ancient classical Chinese.

In ancient times, tattoos or tattoos symbolized a kind of totem, an act of tattooing the totem of faith on the body.

The tattoos on the Maori in New Zealand represent identity and status, power and so on.

Maori society also has a class system, which are nobles, commoners and slaves. Warriors and leaders are members of the nobles. They exercise power and are in charge of all tribal affairs.

The level of class can be distinguished from their clothes and tattoos on their faces. The tattoos on the face and body of the Maori are also a status symbol, and usually the more or more complex patterns represent the higher status.

It was just that when New Zealand was colonized by the empire on which the sun never sets, the Maori tribes, which were more like primitive tribes, were completely conquered by foreigners with foreign guns and cannons, and these New Zealand aborigines Maori became "Indigenous" in other people's population.

First of all, there was some guesswork from the complex and mysterious tattoo patterns on Ethan's exposed limited skin, which is why Li Chungang asked this question.

Hearing the word "Maori",

Ethan, who was leading the way, stopped for a moment, turned his head to stare at Li Chungang with an overjoyed expression on his face, and stood in front of him in the next second and said happily: "Boss, you have also heard about us. Maori? If you are interested, boss, I can take you to my tribe to have fun and eat our Maori specialties..."

Even the largest airport in Auckland didn't seem particularly busy. Li Chungang and others were led by Ethan to the parking area, and a silver Bentley Mulsanne was parked quietly in the parking area.

Since we are planning to travel by car in New Zealand, it is not appropriate to drive a car on a remote mountain road, but a van is too bulky and troublesome, so they have thought it through carefully. After checking in at the hotel, they are ready to leave It is the best choice to replace Mulsanne with the SUV Bentayga when it is time.

The overall appearance of the Bentley Mulsanne is very imposing, and the interior of the car is very luxurious, but the three of them, Li Chungang and the others, are not particularly familiar with cars. They only think that every detail is great. Whether it is worth the price is another matter!

As for Maori Han Ethan, he was completely surprised along the way, thinking that it was not his own car anyway, and he would never be able to afford it after a lifetime of hard work, so he was just so-so.

Fortunately, the trunk was big enough, and they were originally light cars, with an average of one suitcase per person and a carry-on back, so they managed to arrange all their luggage properly.

In line with the principle of starting and ending, and Zhong Guo is not familiar with Auckland, New Zealand, I am afraid that driving is inseparable from the navigation, so the candidate for the driver is still handed over to Ethan.

The interior space of the Bentley Mulsanne is considered to be the most spacious among so many vehicles in the world, but lying on a burly man with a height of more than two meters and a muscular body, it will look particularly petite and narrow. It seems that they are no longer sitting in the driver's seat, but more like "squeezed" into the driver's seat.

Being able to speak well is one of the skills that every qualified tour guide must possess.

In addition, there are other things such as knowing what to say, being familiar with the local environment, familiarizing with the local customs, etc...

Ethan talked eloquently while driving and introduced to the three of them: "This is New Zealand. This is the last piece of pure land on earth, except for Antarctica. Auckland used to be the largest urban area in the world..."

It is not easy to be a good private tour guide these days. You have to drive, explain and even learn various local customs.

Of course, this is not a problem for a native Maori in New Zealand.

After getting used to Yanjing's daily road conditions of "blocked at any time and anywhere", it is really not used to coming here, not to mention the traffic jam, and there is often a distance before encountering a car on this road. In this situation, the flow of vehicles and people gradually increased after entering the urban area of ​​Oakland. The extremely smooth road conditions made their group arrive at the Hilton Hotel that had been booked in advance.

Since he is out to play, Li Chungang is not willing to wrong himself, so the food, drink, housing and transportation are the best in the local area. His room has a terrace of tens of square meters, facing the pier directly. The scenery is quite good, and he gathers here with his friends at night Blowing the sea breeze and drinking is pretty good.

July is the scorching sun in the northern hemisphere, but it is the coldest time in Auckland. It is much cooler and even a little clammy.

The sun was going down soon, and Li Chungang felt that it was not enough to wear just a sweater. He told He Miao not to forget to wear more clothes, but also added a baseball jacket for himself.

When the two of them changed their clothes in the room and were ready to go out, they found that Brother Zhong and Ethan were already fully armed. Who made the lowest temperature here at night to be below 10 degrees? The big temperature difference between day and night is really chilling. !

If you come to New Zealand and don't try its authentic beef and mutton, it will be nothing.

There is no over-developed industry here, and there is almost no industrial pollution. It is all supported by animal husbandry.

Grilled steak, grilled lamb chops, deep-sea lobster, and green shellfish greatly relieved their fatigue. I have to say that the taste is quite good, especially the beef and mutton, which has a faint fragrance like grass in the meat.
