From arms dealer to king of war

Chapter 216 The Sign of a Good Man

Antar's flying skills were relatively average. When the helicopter landed, two middle-aged white men and women wearing shorts and leather boots jumped out of the plane and retched a few times, then took several huge milk bottles from the plane.

These two people acted very caring. They probably spotted Qiao Jia's position in the sky. After getting off the plane and adjusting, they each ran over carrying two large bottles of milk.

Seeing the baby elephant clinging to Qiao Jia's body and showing panic at her arrival, the middle-aged woman waved her companion to stop, then put the huge milk bottle on the ground and said to Qiao Jia: "Let it drink milk. One bottle is enough for now, and the rest should be fed every two hours.

Let it calm down first, and we're going to give it a check. "

The white woman behaves very enthusiastically and has a gentle temperament that makes it easy to trust her.

Qiao Jia nodded and stood up, walked over, picked up a 3-liter bottle and took a look at it, then grabbed the baby elephant's soft trunk and inserted the huge pacifier into its mouth.

It is more like a funnel than a pacifier. In just 3 minutes, 3 pounds of milk was poured into the baby elephant's belly.

Seeing the baby elephant burping happily after eating, and then scratching the palm of his hand with his nose, Qiao Jia smiled and rubbed the baby elephant's head, and then he looked at Anta walking over. Er and a black girl with an afro said with a smile: "I remember you, you are Lenore's assistant, what is your name?"

The black girl with an afro was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Sir, my name is Linda, I have arranged a convoy, and Mr. Elephant is leading the convoy."

As she spoke, Linda glanced at the white man and woman, and said to Qiao Jia: "Sir, this is Mr. John and Ms. Ada from the United Nations Animal Welfare Fund. They are both great veterinarians. They have been working at the United Nations Animal Welfare Fund for the past ten years. National Park Jobs.

When they heard that you rescued a baby elephant, they immediately came with you. "

Qiao Jia himself had no interest in the so-called animal protection fund, but when he heard that these two people had worked here for ten years, he couldn't help but feel awe.

Anyone can do any job that is not very profitable in Difan, where conditions are difficult, but it is not easy to persist for ten years.

Either you do it just to eat, or you do it because you love it!

Two white veterinarians did not stay in their own country, and did not go to more developed places such as South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana. Instead, they stayed in Central Africa for ten years. Without love and sense of responsibility, it would be impossible to do this. of.

You must know that the salary of any charity foundation staff is not high. Considering the hardships in Central Africa, such people are indeed worthy of respect.

Qiao Jia walked up to the two of them, stretched out his hand and shook hands with the two with strange expressions, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your help, otherwise I don't know what to do with this little guy?"

Ada, a middle-aged woman, watched the baby elephant tugging on Qiao Jia's clothes with its trunk and walked over with him. She squatted down and reached out to touch the timid baby elephant's forehead. After being rejected, Ada raised her head and faced Qiao Jia said: "We can't refuse such a little life, right?"

After hearing this, Qiao Jia shook his head with emotion and said: "I originally thought I could, because I was worried that I would feel responsible for them.

But after getting entangled with this little guy, I discovered that sometimes fate is so magical that you can't stop it at all. "

As he spoke, Qiao Jia patted himself on the head and said: "Forgot to introduce myself, my name is Jackal, the owner of a travel company, I came here to inspect the environment and prepare to invest in a resort here.

I saw the scenery here from a helicopter, and it would seem a bit too selfish not to share it with others. "

Hearing Qiao Jia talk about making money in such a refreshing and refined way, Ada smiled and nodded and said: "John told me that people from the Park Management Office said that someone was going to take all the future hunting targets here, so I knew someone was going to invest. .

The Central African National Park is a pearl. Although I have always felt that humans should not intervene here, in fact the local people do need the help of outside forces to find ways to re-establish the balance between man and nature. "

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jia said curiously: "It doesn't sound like you are disgusted with my arrival?

In my travel company business, ‘guided hunting’ is a relatively important part.

You are from the Animal Protection Fund, why do you..."

The tall John said with a helpless expression: "Compared to selective hunting, poaching will do more damage to this pearl.

Some local poachers will come here to kill an elephant because of a word from a tourist and a wad of money.

this is not right!

You are the owner of a travel company, so you certainly don’t want poachers on your property, right? "

Qiao Jia spread his hands and said: "Of course I don't like poachers, but in my opinion, poaching can only be eliminated by eliminating trade.

Of course I have the ability to stop local people from poaching, but..."

When John heard this, he nodded quickly and said: "It is too difficult to stop the trade, but we can stop poaching activities.

I know many local poachers. Well, they cannot be simply classified as poachers. They only ask for food from the grassland to make a living.

Mr. Jackal, if you really plan to build a resort, then you will definitely need a lot of professional manpower.

I can help convince the poachers to become guardians. No one is more familiar with this grassland than them..."

After hearing this, Qiao Jia shook his head and pointed to the elephant carcass that was still moving in the distance, and said: "I don't know much about Afika's rules, but two of my guys have been hunting guides, and they both told me However, a real hunter would not harm a mother with her cubs.

If there are people like this among your so-called 'Guardians', it will not be easy for them to gain my trust.

Money is important, but work ethic is even more important. "

John was stunned for a moment, first nodded in approval, then shook his head with a complicated expression, and said: "The man who hunted the elephant is named Man Luo. His wife and children are both sick, so he needs money very much.

An American promised him $800 to help him get a pair of tusks, so Manlo came.

He's alone and doesn't even have a gun, and he's pressed for time, so he doesn't have many options. "

As he spoke, John looked at the frowning Qiao Jia, with a helpless smile on his rough face, and said: "As a member of the Animal Protection Fund, I shouldn't say this, but if I am in human life, Given a choice between animal life and animal life, I would choose human life.

By the time I got the news, it was too late, and my wife and I had limited funds, so I couldn't help Manlo solve his problem.

If you ask me if Manlo is a poacher, I will tell you that he is.

But if you ask me if it is possible for Manlo to become a guardian, I will tell you more firmly, he definitely can! "

After Qiao Jia heard this, he looked down at Ada, who had been trying to get close to the little elephant, and then looked at the ordinary-looking and particularly old-fashioned John in front of him. He had to admit that he was moved by them.

Animal protection is most afraid of idealism, because ideals are often associated with extremes.

Joga saw the news last month. A village in Uganda was attacked by crocodiles one after another. A girl died and a boy was seriously injured.

When the news hit the newspapers, several SPCA people and a camera crew rushed there.

They led the staff of the Uganda National Park, spent a lot of time and money, and a local staff member was injured in the process, and finally caught the huge crocodile.

Then something bizarre happened. In order to conform to Western ideology or to please the West, the few innocent people who were killed and injured were forgotten.

Those animal protection activists spent a lot of money to send the giant crocodiles to the crocodile sanctuary in the national park like a parade.

And then those people claim this is the victory of ‘harmony with nature’!

In order to gain recognition from the outside world, Uganda naturally ignored those who died.

Qiao Jia feels that in the eyes of some animal protectors, human life is not as valuable as animal life.

This is what Qiao Jia hates the most!

Of course, there is also a scoring situation here. Some poachers who are so cruel that they kill people and steal goods, or those idiots who don't have a clear idea and run to die on their own will not be regretted.

But if you waste time and money to ‘save’ a damn crocodile, then there’s obviously something wrong with your brain.

If it were Qiao Jia who encountered this kind of thing, there would be no nonsense. Going up and destroying the crocodile would be the right thing to do.

John is different from those people. He is not only pragmatic but also considerate of others.

Animals need protection, but people need it even more!

To find a harmonious coexistence between man and nature, man's right to survival and life should not be sacrificed.

The signature move of a good person is that when someone makes a mistake, the first thing he thinks about is whether the other person has any difficulties.

John makes this clear and is looking for ways to help others like Manlo.

‘Guardian’ sounds nice to say, but in fact John just wants Qiao Jia, the new big boss, to provide those people with a job.

With fewer unnecessary killings, those people can feed their families.

This kind of person must be respected, otherwise "kindness" will have nowhere to live.

I don’t know how many times the little elephant refused Ada’s caress. He buried his head between his legs and kept fanning his big ears to tell Ada to go away...

Qiao Jia laughed, shook John's hand again, and said: "You are a good person, you can put the hiring matter later, I will seriously consider it.

But before that, I first need to find a suitable place, and then I can think about the future.

You are right in saying that poachers are not welcome in my territory, but I would like to add that people who encourage others to poach are also not welcome in my territory. "

When John heard this, he smiled and said: "I have notified the guy's name to the US Customs. That guy can bring the ivory on Afica's plane, but as long as he gets off the plane in the United States, he will be responsible for his recklessness." Pay the price!”

As he spoke, John winked at Qiao Jia and said with a smile: "Our official status is sometimes useful.

My wife and I have built an animal rescue center. Currently, we are short of funds. I wonder if you are willing to dedicate your love to those animals? "

Qiao Jia looked at John, who instantly changed the subject and started beating his rich man, as if he was a ghost...

He thought about his layout in Damazin and his wishes at that time. He hesitated and said, "We have to discuss this in detail. I have a plan, or a wish..."
