Chapter 1148 -1004: The Tumor in Amazon
Joe Ga didn’t pay much attention to the old butler’s so-called ‘bad feeling’; he was captivated by the screams of Gino and Adel, the two children…
Since boarding the yacht, Gino had been boasting to Adel about his ability to catch piranhas.
Once the yacht entered the tributary, Gino took out a fishing rod, tied fresh bait to it, and standing at the side of the yacht, began imitating the local piranha fishing techniques he had seen on TV, constantly hitting the surface of the water with the bait.
In the end, he didn’t catch any piranhas, but he did attract two Amazon River dolphins that appeared like sea creatures.
The sudden appearance of the large river sprites brought a wave of joy to everyone.
These creatures have an innate closeness to humans and were not afraid of the yacht. After continuously tasting the fish meat fed by Gino, they began to chase the yacht, swimming and leaping!
Adel joyfully ran along the side of the yacht, tossing fish from her hands into the water.
Each time a dolphin leapt out of the water, the little girl would scream joyfully and clap vigorously, wanting the large river sprites to jump higher. freёnovelkiss.com
Joe Ga, in high spirits, held his son and brought him closer, wanting the little guy to see such vibrant life; even if he couldn’t see or remember clearly, some feelings are memorable.
When the dolphins disappeared, an excited Adel blushed and sighed with disappointment, then looked at Boss Qiao and said, “Dad, will I see them again?”
Joe Ga reached out to rub Adel’s head and, smiling, said, “Of course, that’s not a problem. These sprites will appear in places where they feel comfortable, and areas around our resort are such places.”
Just as Joe Ga finished speaking, gunshots rang out upstream on the Amazon River…
‘Bang bang bang’ gunfire, like firecrackers, echoed through the jungle upstream.
Joe Ga quickly pulled Adel and called for the curious Gino to rush into the cabin.
After securing everyone, Joe Ga frowned and approached the old butler, asking, “What’s going on?”
The old butler, sighing gloomily, shook his head and said, “I don’t know. In the past month, people have been attempting to enter our territory.
Our guards aren’t particularly familiar with the jungle, so they’ve never caught anyone.
These people don’t approach the resort, just harass the perimeter, leaving our guards exhausted.
Things have only gotten slightly better since we enlisted help from the Brazilian military for jungle pursuit.”
The old butler pointed to a river path in the distance and said, “About 30 kilometers along both sides of this river path is land purchased by Prince Sayyid.
When signing the contract, the Prince promised not to destroy the vegetation here and provided many jobs to locals in Manaus, which is why the Brazilians were very generous.
But now it seems that the situation here isn’t as good as Manaus’ government described.”
Boss Joe, amused, said, “Didn’t you guys investigate before buying the land?”
The old butler helplessly replied, “This place is less than 200 kilometers from Manaus. The Prince immediately took a fancy to this area when he was looking for a target space by helicopter.
Moreover, we consulted the locals, but they weren’t familiar with this tributary either.
This exactly fits Prince Sayyid’s needs…
Transportation is quite convenient, supply is simple, and there’s no one around, maintaining a primitive ecological environment.
Who could have anticipated this, the Prince regrets it greatly…”
Joe Ga recalled when Sayyid mentioned trouble in this area to him, but he hadn’t taken it seriously at the time.
Even if the locals bore some malice, it wouldn’t cause any substantial harm to the resort.
But if, as the old butler said, the opposing side occasionally conducted peripheral harassment, that would be really annoying.
Increasing defensive forces implies a considerable rise in service costs for the resort.
The guide company hasn’t made money so far and relies on Sayyid and Boss Joe’s financial strength to maintain expansion, each resort having been hammered out with real money and effort.
When effort turns into a tumor, it’s a significant blow to Sayyid!
Joe Ga glanced at the old butler’s somewhat helpless expression, then looked at the anteaters standing vigilantly with weapons by the boat’s side; he smiled at the old fellow and said, “You’ve been waiting for me to come over, haven’t you?”
The old butler nodded and said, “I previously hired some South American mercenaries over here, wanting to catch those harassing the resort and ask what they want.
But those mercenaries would leave soon after arriving, telling me those harassing people are drug traffickers, and they can’t afford to provoke them…”
The old butler looked at Joe Ga, and said, “Prince Sayyid says you are the best in the world at dealing with drug traffickers, so he wanted to wait for you to come and offer some advice.”
Joe Ga sighed and said, “What suggestions can I give? I never negotiate with drug traffickers.
I don’t understand why drug traffickers are harassing the resort, but the reasons are nothing other than…
Either there’s a drug factory on the resort’s land, or the resort has blocked their trafficking route.
No matter which one, if their costs aren’t pushed exceedingly high, they’ll keep harassing us, unless we’re willing to concede.”
As he spoke, Joe Ga saw a black plume of smoke rising abruptly from the distant river path. He frowned with disgust and muttered, “Why are there drug traffickers everywhere?”
