1379. Centennial Studio (3/5)
Yi Li Du said to the Luguan: "We have been very busy in the past year and everyone has been working, so we need rest time. Rest is rest, and vacation is vacation..."
"I understand, let the damn news go to hell." Lu Guan smiled.
Li Du also smiled: "You know nothing, the boss has to squeeze the employees. Tell me, what kind of work news? Is there an auction here?"
Rushing the official: "..."
This work news is indeed related to the warehouse auction. The auction will be held this weekend and there are still four days left, and the auction content is related to photography.
The city of Cleveland was founded in 1796. At first, due to the intersection of canals and railways, it became a manufacturing center. After the major industrial recession, the focus was on finance, insurance and medical care.
In addition, there are some art-related industries in the city, such as photography.
The photography industry in Cleveland developed very early, and the oldest existing photography studio in the United States is here.
The studio called Bourne and Safford's Eyes was founded in the 1860s and was once famous throughout the United States for portraits.
In 1910, Bourne and Safford's eyes moved to a building owned by the current Ohio Life Insurance Company. The closure was due to the loss of a 16-year space ownership lawsuit and was forced to close.
The studio has always been in a rental relationship with the office building. Due to space and rent issues, they failed to reach an agreement with the building owner. Ohio Life Insurance Company hopes to take back the building, and the studio finally decided to file for bankruptcy.
The official said: "This studio has been open for 150 years. They have a special warehouse. The auction is divided into two categories, office auction and warehouse auction, both of which belong to this photography studio."
When Li Du heard that there were still four days left, he said, "Let's rest, don't worry about it recently, pay attention to the relevant information occasionally and find out if there is any good thing."
Whether Hans or Lu Zheng, one thing is worthy of praise is that they are all good at finding valuable warehouse auction information, and good things will appear in the warehouse auctions they find.
Li Du is not as good as them in this regard. He is not good at finding hidden value from a pile of warehouse and auction information.
Hans is good at this, and the officials are good at this, so when he was on vacation, he even mentioned the news of the warehouse auction to him, which shows that the news is more valuable.
Li Du asked him to follow up occasionally. Now that he is in the resort, he mainly needs to relax and rest.
The staff warned them that there were brown bears in the woods and wilderness here, but because of the long development time, the brown bears felt a little domesticated and not very fierce.
This is one of the tourism projects in the resort, which is to watch brown bears. As long as you don’t provoke local brown bears, you will generally not be attacked.
And brown bears also have another characteristic, that is, the big bear stays in the woods and doesn’t appear in the resort area. The main ones come out are small bears, looking for people to eat.
There is a biological exhibition room in the resort, introducing local wildlife, birds, fish, etc., and telling tourists what can be hunted and what can’t be hunted, and what can be fished and what needs protection.
There are quite a lot of projects around, and there are a large number of separate houses and open tourist areas in the area, which can be camping, swimming, fishing, hunting, building a tree house by yourself, and skiing in winter.
However, before fishing, you have to apply for a fishing permit at the Fisheries Administration outside the resort. Two dollars per card, and you can catch eight fish every day.
The exception is Asian carp. If you are willing to go fishing in the lake, there is no need for a fishing license. You can use Asian carp to exchange for fishing qualifications. If you catch two Asian carp, you can catch one local fish species.
Asian carp are flooding in the rivers and lakes of the United States. It is said that the US Congress allocated 200 million yuan to clean up them this year, but the effect is not great.
These carp were originally used to deal with garbage in freshwater, but they had no natural enemies in the local area and their population expanded rapidly. They went north along the river and have now invaded the Great Lakes.
On the way, Li Du saw some big fish jumping from the lake, which was the heroic posture of Asian carp.
Surrounded by green trees, clear mercury and silver sand, Li Du applied sunscreen oil and put on sunglasses to go to the beach by the lake to bask in the sun.
The lake is very lively. Some people are surfing under the tow of the yacht, and some are dragged by the yacht into the air with parachutes. In addition, there is a kind of activity on the lake in the local area, which is to set up a large bathtub and put it in the lake, and then people stay in the bathtub and flutter around with the wind and waves.
Seeing that some of the bathtubs had children, Li Du asked, "What should I do if the basin is flipped?"
The lord shrugged and said, "I can't overturn it. Look, the basin is very stable, and there are buoyancy balls under it, just like a boat."
Li Du said: "What if I turn it over? Some basins only have children."
"Then the child will definitely be able to swim. Anyway, everyone is optimistic about their children. If something happens, they can only blame the guardian." The rumbler said casually.
Li Du nodded. There is a reason why there are few foreigners. The guardian is also bold and bold in letting his children play such a dangerous lake activity.
The lunch was quite rich, with coconut and lime flavor scallop ceviche, skim milk waffles with stewed duck legs, spicy octopus ramen, fried chicken and fish, and the fried sausage prepared by Li Du and others themselves, trout sandwiches, etc.
Sitting on the beach by the lake, laying a picnic napkin, a group of people gathered together to eat lunch lively, enjoying the cool breeze and food from the lake, and relaxing both body and mind.
The cats also gathered beside each other and ate and drank. There was a forest behind them. When Li Du saw mushrooms, he suggested that everyone pick mushrooms together in the afternoon.
Ah Miao and Ah Bai are both jungle animals. They ate and drank enough and rushed into the woods.
Sophie was afraid that they would encounter danger and told her, "Only here, just here, don't go in anymore, do you know? It's here."
Ah Bai climbed up a pine tree with ease. It took a bird's nest and dug out two bird eggs from it to find Li Du to offer treasure.
Li Du shook his head and asked it to be put back. They were not in the wild, so there was no need to eat other people's eggs.
Seeing that he was not interested, Abai tilted his head and thought about it, and then got into the woods again.
They are still in the residential area, everything is safe, there are no large beasts, so Li Du is relieved.
More than half an hour after Ah Bai entered the woods, Ah Miao, who was lying on the tree branch, suddenly got up, stared at the depths of the woods and shouted: "Meow Meow!"
Li Du took off her sunglasses and looked over, asking, "What's wrong?"
Soon, the tree branch swayed and a white figure jumped out. When he saw that Ah Bai was back, he put on his sunglasses and prepared to rest.
As a result, some of the small trees in the woods behind also swayed, and Ah Meow's screams became more and more rapid, and Ah Meow also jumped up.
When Li Du saw something was wrong, he walked towards the woods with Brother Wolf, and then he saw a big furry head.
