Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 175 The escaping animals!

Soon the fire's development exceeded Wang Lu's expectation. The fire lines attacked in all directions, probing out tongues of flames, and easily ignited the extremely dry grasslands.

It took almost only ten minutes for Wang Lu to know clearly that the fire he ordered to light was beyond his control.

Once an accident occurs, the three fire trucks and dozens of men under his command will not be able to stop it.

In other words, we can only leave it to fate.

But at this time, Wang Lu breathed a sigh of relief. He no longer had the sense of urgency before, so he could only say to destroy it quickly!
But it seems that the situation is gradually becoming more optimistic.

Driven by the strong southerly wind, the continuous line of fire quickly advanced northward, away from the pasture territory, and continued to engulf the grassland along the way.

"Boss, it looks like the situation is very good. As long as we persist for another half hour, this grassland fire will not threaten our pasture at all!"

Parker was the first to excitedly report the situation to Wang Lu!

Wang Lu looked at the area swallowed up by the fire line. The three fire trucks were spraying water back and forth to prevent re-ignition. The Dome River could provide them with ample water. Wang Lu wanted to ensure that even if the wind changed, this area would not be affected. The fire was forming again.

Even the John Deere 9620rx did not stop, but continued to build a fire break zone. What Wang Lu wanted was to be foolproof.

"Boss, what we are burning is the land of someone else's national park. Will this cause some trouble?"

Old Wei asked worriedly, but Wang Lu didn't care at all:

"Since these damn bureaucrats have no intention of doing anything, don't blame me. Rather than letting the fire spread to our ranch, I would rather let the guys from the management office come to me!"

Even if those guys from the Serengeti National Park Management Office had any objections, Wang Lu had no intention of paying attention to them.

Parker on the side said with bloodshed:
"Old Wei, I don't think we need to worry about this problem at all. You don't know what these guys are doing. Maybe they still don't know that there is a fire in the area adjacent to our ranch. Even if they know, I'm afraid they will If you don’t want to worry about it, you’ll just think it’s an accident!”

Hearing Parker's words, Old Wei was stunned. It was obvious that in his mind, this matter was a bit outrageous...

But Wang Lu knew the virtues of the local people very well, so the possibility was really not impossible, it was even very high!

At this moment, the mobile phone in Wang Lu's pocket rang again. After the call was connected, Makarov's urgent voice also sounded on the other end:
"Damn it, the fire is spreading rapidly towards your pasture. It is more severe than before. May God bless your pasture..."

Makarov's words stopped abruptly, and then Wang Lu heard an exclamation on the phone:
"God, what have you done? You created such a large fire-proof area in such a short period of time?"

Obviously, Makarov had noticed Wang Lu's actions and even guessed what Wang Lu had done, but he smartly remained silent.

It is foreseeable that the impact of this fire on the Serengeti savannah will not only be devoured a large amount of grassland and destroy the ecology, but also greatly affect the number of tourists in the next few months.

Especially for the sightseeing hot air balloon project, no one is willing to spend a fortune to see a piece of scorched earth.On the contrary, this Chinese rancher's territory may benefit from this, and his performance in the second half of the year may depend on him. In this way, it is not difficult for Makarov to remain silent.

Wang Lu on the other end of the phone didn't expect this, but he wouldn't ask for trouble, and just talked casually:

"As you can see Makarov, a sudden fire engulfed a large area north of my ranch, but it saved my ranch from disaster. However, in China, this matter is not under God's control. To be precise, Say it’s God’s blessing!”

Makarov would not argue with Wang Lu about God, God, etc. He simply acquiesced to this statement.

The fire in the Serengeti grassland did not reach Wang Lu's ranch in the end, but was blocked several kilometers away from the ranch.

Wang Lu was also worried and took Parker and others to investigate the situation around the fire line. A large amount of smoke and dust filled the air, making everyone's breathing slightly uncomfortable.

In addition, Wang Lu even smelled the scent of meat in the air, and subconsciously twitched his nose.

"It seems that many wild animals cannot escape the fires at all. The number of wild animals that died due to fires in the Serengeti grasslands in the last century was even equal to the number of natural kills among the populations. This is not good for wild animals. It’s simply a disaster!”

Parker, who was most familiar with the situation here, also sighed.

"Even the African lion, the overlord of the grasslands, can only wait helplessly to die when encountering a fire. Only a few clever guys can escape from the fire."

Just when Wang Lu and others were still sighing, the fire in front of them had gradually become smaller because there was not enough burning material. In the fire field, there was an inexplicable sound.

This also made Wang Lu raise his eyebrows. The veterans behind him had even picked up their weapons and were ready to fire at any time.

However, the source of the noise soon appeared, and what happened next made Wang Lu sigh.

A large number of wild animals rushed out from the fading line of fire, and all the animals had almost reached the limit of their own population speed.

What surprised Wang Lu the most was that the leader turned out to be a group of baboons with a population of forty or fifty. The usually soft hair of these baboons had all curled up at this time, and many baboons even had several bald patches on their bodies. All black and gray.

The leading baboon immediately attracted Wang Lu's attention. This guy kept making calls, seeming to remind the other animals behind him to catch up. Even though he was in a state of embarrassment, there was no sparkle in his eyes at all. reduce.

Following closely behind are gazelles, giraffes, black rhinos, African lions and countless other wild animals.

At this time, the animals no longer had the previous life-and-death struggle between the weak and the strong. Instead, they gathered closely together, focused on escaping, and achieved a short-lived harmony, which was quite wonderful.

"Oh, well done. It was this king baboon who led them to find a way out, otherwise these animals would never have survived!"

Parker couldn't help but exclaimed, and everyone else around him also looked quite surprised.
