Chapter 107 An Uneasy Journey

Nights in the rainforest are very sultry.The river is sandwiched in the middle of the dense rainforest, at the lowest altitude, almost impermeable to the wind, although the temperature has eased compared with the daytime, it is still humid and stuffy.

Traveling by boat is not a leisurely and relaxing journey, but rather tiring.So most people have already rested at this time, even Bruce.

He chatted with Chang Wei for a while, then entered the cabin.

The Latin female Gail, probably couldn't bear the heat, came out of the cabin, saw Chang Wei on the deck, hesitated and walked over, and thanked her a little bluntly.

Chang Wei smiled honestly and waved his hands again and again: "It's nothing, it's nothing. They will save you without me."

During the day, when Gail fell into the river, Chang Wei shot quickly and killed the crocodile, saving her from death.But she never said thank you.It may come to mind now.

"At that time... I was really scared." She leaned on the guardrail and looked into the dark night: "That crocodile is big, isn't it? I think it might swallow me in one gulp."

"Uh, that's how it is in the rainforest." Chang Wei said, "There are many dangers. Bruce told me some of them."

"Do you like strange plants?" She suddenly asked, "Would you rather take such a risk?"

Chang Wei smiled: "This is my only hobby. I am a farmer, and I hope to build a botanical garden with all the exotic plants in the world."

"How do you know about Xuelan?" She said vaguely.

"Bruce told me." Chang Wei grinned: "I am Bruce's long-term employer. He is a bounty hunter. I hired him to help me find exotic plants all over the world, and I paid him."

"I heard you gave that Bill one hundred thousand dollars?" Gail said, "It's too high. If it was me, I would give him twenty thousand dollars at most."

"He won't do [-] yuan." Chang Wei said: "In this season, you can't find anyone except for high prices."

He asked curiously, "You, Pfizer, are number one in the pharmaceutical industry, why are you so stingy?"

Gail's smiling face suddenly pulled down: "I'm not a farmer."

Chang Wei smiled honestly.

She couldn't help but said, "Are all the farmers so rich? Do you know how many years it took me to earn [-] yuan a year after graduating from college?"

Chang Wei showed a trace of curiosity.

"Six years!" She said, "I graduated from Harvard. At that time, my mentor recruited me and told me to give me an annual salary of [-] and let me be his secretary. Secretary, do you know?"

Chang Wei smiled: "I know."

"The secretary has something to do, hum!" She snorted, "I gave him a hard kick and made him lie in the hospital for half a month."

"And then?" Chang Wei expressed interest.

"Then I failed to get a doctoral certificate." She sighed: "Then I entered Pfizer, and I realized that you men are all ghosts. But I still struggled step by step until now, becoming a white-collar elite. I Struggle, I struggle, I'm not like you, you have a farm, I have nothing."

It seemed that she needed to vent after being frightened. She babbled a lot, regardless of whether Chang Wei was interested in listening or not.

What are the unspoken rules of the workplace, all kinds of tricks, what to do, and how she avoids it.She told Chang Wei that she had always wanted to get married, but couldn't find a suitable one.She felt that it was her former Dumang mentor who gave her a psychological shadow, and she hated that old ghost very much.

"It is too difficult for people of color in society like the United States." She sighed again and again: "Although I am a little better than blacks and Asians, but doing the same thing, I still encounter much more difficulties than whites. I have Sometimes I feel like I can’t keep going.”

This is the voice of a woman with a slightly surly personality.

Although Chang Wei wasn't very interested, he couldn't help but sigh for her.

"You seem like a nice person." She suddenly approached: "I have to thank you for saving my life."

When her hand groped down, Chang Wei froze and wanted to avoid it.

"Don't." She said, "Just treat it as my repayment."

A bit sudden.

The next morning, Bruce came to the bow and smiled at Chang Wei.

He gave a thumbs up: "The legend is as clever as clumsy? This seems to be a saying in the East. You are really good enough to seduce a woman honestly. That thing is also powerful, two hours ah , my BOSS, do you know how difficult it is for the people in the boat?"

Chang Wei showed a hint of embarrassment: "I can't refuse."

"Why refuse?" Bruce grinned: "That woman is beautiful, isn't she? She has healthy skin, a tall figure, and although she has a bit of a bad temper, it doesn't matter. It's not about marrying a wife. Just be comfortable."

The boat set sail again, and all of them stared at Chang Wei with unusual eyes.And Gail has not come out, probably suffered too much last night.

Chang Wei didn't say anything about it.

A one-time and simple exchange, that's all.

He thought so, and Gail said so too.

Westerners are like this, when the interest comes, go directly to it.

Bill walked over, gave a thumbs up, and said, "We will arrive at the mouth of the river around noon. I have observed that the amount of rainfall upstream is not as surprising as expected. If there is no accident, we will take a shortcut."

"That would be great." Chang Wei expressed his satisfaction.

For this news, Jack and others are also very happy.

However, things will always develop in the worst direction-before noon, before they reach the mouth of the Three Forks, they have to re-plan the next forward route.

Because the river course was blocked by several overturned trees!
The boat couldn't go through at all, and there were no corresponding tools. A few small knives could do nothing to those big trees.

"I have no choice but to change the course." Bill sighed: "There are two options now. First, we retreat and enter the forked river we passed half an hour ago. Second, get off the boat."

"How far are we from Satan Basin?" Dr. Jack frowned.

"If the road is not blocked, according to the amount of water observed now, we can take a shortcut and get there in only one day. If we go back and take the Cha River, then we will need at least three days!"

"Three days?!" Hearing Bill's words, Sam exclaimed, "How could it take three days?!"

Bill shook his head and turned to his own map: "Look, you have to make a big circle to the south to get in from here. Three days is a conservative estimate."

"Then how about getting off the boat and going by land?" Bruce asked aside.

"It's impossible to estimate." Bill spread his hands: "The situation in the rainforest is very complicated, and I can't guarantee that I can smoothly bring everyone to the destination on time."

"Three days." Jack looked confused.

The black man Jordan said: "If you go by land, how long will it take at the soonest, excluding any other factors?"

"At least three days." Bill said.
