Treasure Hunt Tycoon

Chapter 202: Not the same neighbor (2)

After a circle around the wasteland, Li Duxian has a large area here. It is estimated that there are half of a small farm with more than 20 hectares. Bayi Chinese W≈WW. 81ZW. Com

He asked, "What's the rent?"

"20,000 yuan a year."

Li Du marveled: "Wow, we can't even use 2,000 yuan a month? In other words, we can rent a hectare of land every month and can't use 100 yuan? Is this Alaska?"

Buying Alaska by the United States was considered a big profit. The Tsarist Russian government sold this 1.7 million square kilometers of land to Uncle Sam for only seven million dollars.

Hans said: "This is a new land opened by the state government. It cannot be used to grow crops or to open factories, so if it is not cheap enough to rent, who will rent it?"

Li Du asked: "Are we okay with storing garbage?"

"It's okay to clean up the garbage after it expires," Hans said. "Besides, you can't pollute the land. I don't think it will be a problem, right?"

Li Dudao: "Of course!"

He immediately decided to rent the land at a low price and close to the Hesman thrift market, which was convenient for them to handle the garbage and junk.

But next to them is the gathering place of the Amish people. This place Li Du had heard of when he was in school, and he was very famous in Flagstaff.

To be precise, the Amish are not a nation, but a religious denomination that originated during the European Reformation in the 16th century.

They adhere to ancient costumes and traditional lifestyles. They do not use cars for travel, they do not use electrical appliances, and they do not use fertilizers for farming.

Although they have lived in the North American Big Six for hundreds of years, they have always adhered to their religious beliefs and value systems and have not been changed by the mainstream American society.

Li Du is curious about them, and many Americans and foreign tourists are also curious about them. However, the Amish people are not willing to be a small animal to be visited or to be disturbed by outsiders, so it is difficult for outside people to reach them.

They rode their motorcycles on the road. Just out of the woods, a middle-aged man got off a horse-drawn carriage on the side of the road and beckoned to the two.

Hans drove over and asked, "Hi sir, can I help you?"

This white man in his forties, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and black trousers, straw shoes on his feet, and a black shady hat on his head, looked a little bit nondescript.

Li Du knew that this was the dress of the Amish people, but the first time he contacted him, he looked curiously.

When he first heard of these people, someone introduced that no matter where you are, you can recognize the Amish at a glance because their costumes are different.

Whether it's a men's clothing bowler hat or a women's dress, the coat is all black.

Men usually wear black suits with white shirts, and women usually wear black home skirts. Only at festivals or weddings, women add a pure white shawl to change some simple tones.

When Li Du looked at this man, he felt like he had come out of Europe in the Middle Ages. Not only his clothes, but also his temperament, he was very simple and simple.

After they parked, the middle-aged man took off his hat and saluted, and said, "Both are good. My name is Thomason. I would like to ask, are you planning to rent a jungle clearing?"

"Jungle clearing? Are you talking about the wasteland behind?" Hans asked.

Thomasson smiled. "Yes."

Hans said: "Yes, we have this plan. Any suggestions?"

Thomason waved his hand: "No, no, I just asked curiously, because we will be neighbors, and my house is right next to it."

He pointed to a wooden house forward to the side, hidden behind trees and grass, and a row of wooden houses connected together.

Hans said, "I'm glad to meet you, Thomasson. I'm Hans, Hans-Fox, this is my brother, Lee Du. Just call him Lee."

"Hello, Hans, hello, Lee." The middle-aged man saluted with a smile.

He put his hat on his chest and nodded, this kind of etiquette Li Du had only seen on television about medieval life.

"I understand what you mean, Thomas," said Hans. "The purpose of leasing this land is to accommodate some used second-hand supplies. We will not run holiday estates here, we will not party, we will not bring tourists, It will not affect your life. "

Thomasson laughed and said a little embarrassedly: "It seems you guessed my purpose, then I'm relieved, but I also want to ask, won't you pull the electricity over?"

Hans shook his head: "Of course, how could the government allow us to do this?"

With this response, Thomasson left happily.

Li Du was incredible, saying, "Are they unwilling to make life more comfortable and easier?"

Hans said: "Obviously, they are not willing to do this."

Later they drove on the road, Hans took the path, and then they saw more Amish.

Instead of using cars, they went out in a horse-drawn carriage. Farmers did not use tractors and any new machinery. They used horses to plow the land.

Li Du was an eye-opener. In his impression, the township community in the United States was a colorful and prosperous place, but the color of the Amish people's gathering place was simple, that is, black and white.

"How many Amish people are here?" He asked cheerfully.

Hans said: "There are very few people, about a thousand or six thousand or seven thousand people? The most are in Pennsylvania, which is said to have 350,000 to 60,000 people."

"Do you know anything about them? I'm curious."

Hans Haha laughed: "That's a lot, what do you want to know? They are one of the early immigrants in the United States. They see themselves as a clear stream in the turbid world. wuxiaspot.com ~ They are the strictest group of Puritans. They pursue life's peace of mind, refuse modern life, speak High Germanic, and insist on educating their offspring. "

"..."

Listening to Hans's eloquent introduction, Li Du was surprised: "You really know enough about these people, do I say you are a best-seller?"

Hans grinned, "I know them because I used to want to join the Amish people. For a while, I wanted to find the meaning and true meaning of life."

"Then why didn't you join?"

"Because you can't drink, you can't make bars, you can't make girls, you can't play video games, and I think the meaning of life lies in tobacco alcohol and women!"

Li Du can only raise his middle finger, but after his understanding, Hans should have been a young literary artist in his youth. Later, something happened, which stimulated him and changed his character.

Motorcycles traveled all the way through the gathering village of the Amish people and headed straight for the city.
