Chapter 17 - Stubborn Easterners!

Zhang Yaming slept very soundly at night, almost sleeping until dawn.

After waking up, I looked around his wooden room and felt refreshed and in a very good mood.

Closing his eyes, Zhang Yaming could still feel that the misty water vapor from last night had completely condensed into droplets this morning, securely hidden in the jade bottle.

And the jade bottle was actually inside my own body, it was truly a magical thing.

After he woke up, he quickly melted the water that had dripped onto the glass cup last night into the drinking water of the little black pig and those chickens this morning.

Since those waters are not harmful to fish, they are probably only beneficial to these pigs and chickens, not harmful.

The two piglets brought from home have adapted to the climate of the Australian islands and have changed from the fearful and restless they were when they first arrived to being very active.

They stayed in the pigsty prepared by Ham, sniffing here and there, very curious about this new home.

And for the more than ten free range chickens, Zhang Yaming surrounded them in a circle next to the pigs, covering an area of three to four hundred square meters. This was the place where Celia used to raise chickens, very spacious.

Who would say this is Australia, with a lot of land and few people, even the area occupied by these local pigs and chickens is a whole acre of land.

They tasted a bit strong, so Zhang Yaming placed the pigs and chickens in the woods behind those vegetables, which was over a thousand meters away from their house and in a leeward place.

The smell of the pigs and chickens is completely inaudible in this small house, and their excrement is used as fertilizer for growing vegetables, which is an absolute waste utilization.

Looking at the cheerful little pig and free range chicken drinking water, Zhang Yaming felt that everything in life was so beautiful, but the only downside was that the well water was a bit insufficient.

If fresh water cannot be found in the coming days, Zhang Yaming will have to consider buying an expensive seawater desalination equipment, and at the same time, the generator equipment on the island will also need to be replaced.

The project that needs to be done all the time is too large, and at present, it is a bit uneconomical.

Zhang Yaming was thinking about this question when he saw the three Australians searching for a water source. They were discussing whether to go to the woods to find a water source?

Zhang Yaming only remembered one of their names, Zhulian Keynes, that's the leader. Ham always calls out to Julien, Julien.

How many times did Zhang Yaming sound like Juliet!

Julien has been exploring almost every place near the small wooden house to see if he can find a water source. Unfortunately, these days, he has almost searched one or two miles around the wooden house, but found nothing.

Although Zhang Yaming repeatedly encouraged him, saying that it was okay, finding a water source was not something that could be found in a day or two, but could take one or two months. As long as a water source could be found, it was very good.

Zhang Yaming said this, but Zhu Lien didn't think so. In his opinion, this Oriental person is a waste of energy and money.

To find a water source, you need to have one. This Paradise Island doesn't have any freshwater resources at all. How do you let them find it?

However, Julien can only say this from the bottom of his heart, and he dare not tell Zhang Yaming because their salaries are settled on a daily basis.

Whether or not they can find a water source, as long as the boss doesn't give up and speak up, they just focus on their work. As for the final outcome, it's not something they can decide.

In the face of money, Australia is also not so practical. This is a common problem among people, regardless of nationality or race.

Boss, there are a lot of trees in Paradise Island, so we plan to go into the woods and have a look in the coming days. If you have time, why don't you come with us

Zhang Yaming noticed that these people not only brought equipment to find water sources, but some also wore guns.

Australia has a vast territory with fewer people and more land, which has resulted in a large number of large aggressive wildlife.

So in Australia, there are over one million people, about 7% of Australian adults, who can legally own firearms.

In the Gun Control Act, the types and main uses of firearms in Australia are for hunting, wildlife control, and target shooting.

In the small town of Banaret, many people obtain gun licenses for hunting purposes, just like in today's Jurien. When they enter the jungles of Paradise Island, they also need to bring firearms.

Because there are so many trees in Paradise Island, no one knows what kind of wild beasts are hidden and whether they pose a threat to human life.

Seeing Zhulian's hunting rifle, Zhang Yaming is also considering whether to apply for a gun license if he has time recently? How many guns to buy and play with?

Playing with guns? If this were in China, it would be unimaginable for Zhang Yaming, but this is in Australia, for island owners like Zhang Yaming.

Buying a few firearms and even hiring some retired special forces soldiers to protect the safety of one's own island is the most normal thing!

Coincidentally, I have nothing else to do today. It would be great to go out and explore with you all, and maybe there will be unexpected gains

A few days ago, Zhang Yaming was busy with his own affairs and didn't have time to focus on finding a water source. Today, since Zhulian and his team are going into the woods, he happened to follow them to take a look.

The last time I went to the forest was a few months ago, when I first came to see the island, and when I walked to those strange and abrupt places, there seemed to be strange things happening at that time.

That is the necklace that is the source of one's own life. There was once a scorching heat, and Zhang Yaming still hasn't figured out the strangeness inside. This time, he happened to go take another look.

This group of four is equipped with hunting rifles and devices for finding water sources, which are actually very advanced measuring instruments with display screens.

This instrument can inject electrical power into the underground soil through two electrodes, and two additional electrodes measure the potential difference (voltage drop) at specific scanning points to calculate the final resistivity value.

This instrument can be used to detect groundwater resources, hidden caves, and even impermeable layers and obstacles in underground soil, and is currently one of the more advanced detection instruments in Australia.

Zhang Yaming noticed that these three Australians, two or three miles away from the house, immediately chose a place with a wide view and started working with the machine.

The survey work also involves multiple procedures and is not as simple as imagined. It took Zhulian one or two hours to reach the final conclusion on this survey point.

I'm really sorry, I'm sorry. There's still no water here, boss. Do you think we need to go deeper into the woods? At least in the outskirts, there's no sign of fresh water

Julien shrugged his shoulders and made a helpless expression. It's not really his fault for not putting in the effort. It's true that there may not be any fresh water on this island.

Oh, Julienne, don't feel sad. I still know the situation on Paradise Island in my heart

Zhang Yaming looked at Julian with a hint of frustration on his face. He patted his shoulder with his hand and comforted the Australian, 'If the water source on Paradise Island is easy to find.'.

This island wouldn't be sold so cheaply, and the Armand in the tavern wouldn't shamelessly insist that Paradise Island can't have a water source.

You should know that when Villa Company planned to sell Paradise Island, they also sent people to live on the island for a month to search for a water source. It was only after they couldn't find a second water source that Paradise Island was sold at a low price.

So it's not surprising that Zhang Yaming won't be able to find a water source for a while.

But he still had that stubbornness in his heart. Without personally trying and seeing it with his own eyes, he would never believe that such a large paradise island only has that one water source.

This is completely abnormal, too abnormal!

This is what Zhang Yaming often self mockingly says: he won't turn back until he hits the southern wall, and he won't turn back even if he hits the southern wall.

Zhulian shrugged and blew a whistle when she saw the boss saying the same thing. She didn't feel guilty anymore. As long as the boss paid him, he would come to Paradise Island for vacation at that time, as long as he had money.

Julien whistled and was leading the way, but suddenly it went dark in front of him. He was so scared that he shouted, 'My God!'

He immediately raised his gun, but was suddenly stopped by Zhang Yaming standing behind him: "Wait, don't get excited, there's a cute friend ahead
