I Don’t Want To Be Popular

Heat steamed in the bathroom, leaving droplets of water on the window glass.

Outside the window, the cold Siberian wind howled, but inside the house it was as warm as spring, even a little hot.

Lying in the bathtub, feeling the warmth of the water and getting rid of his fatigue, Chen Chuan sorted out the videos he had recorded while hunting during the day, as well as the videos and photos Avora had recorded for him of him riding a horse and carrying a bow. , sent to Moments.

Not to mention, it really has the flavor of A Song of Ice and Fire.

The blonde girl in the bathtub could ride a horse and shoot a gun during the day, but now she is as obedient as Santa Claus's little elk.

…

Night falls in Siberia, and heavy snow falls.

The next morning, both of them got up early.

Aurora leaned into Chen Chuan's arms and told him many beautiful local legends and short stories.

"We will resist and reject strangers, but once we become close friends, we will be highly loyal." Aurora ends the story with this sentence.

In the dim sky, Chen Chuan looked at the girl's delicate facial features and kissed her proud figure.

It wasn't until eight o'clock that the two of them got up.

Wear warm clothes, ride a horse in the snow, and return to the villa for breakfast from the villa on Sunset Trail.

Rokov has been in the restaurant for a long time, preparing a sumptuous breakfast for the new owner of the villa.

In fact, according to local customs, they don't pay much attention to breakfast. Most people just eat some bread and milk.

Therefore, the meal specially prepared for Chen Chuan looked particularly thoughtful, including local oatmeal, olajiyi, aspic, salad, hamburger steak, berry juice, Italian breakfast espresso, and croissants. , cranberry cheese, salami, pie.

What surprised Chen Chuan was that there were also domestic soy milk and fried dough sticks buns, and even tofu curd.

"This is a hometown meal specially prepared for you, boss, by Chef Lin from Bingcheng," Rokov said.

Chen Chuan nodded. It's not surprising that there are domestic chefs here. After all, many Chinese people come to Lake Baikal for tourism.

Kuzik is a must-stop on your way to Lake Baikal.

There is the Angara River here, which is a tributary of Lake Baikal. The real Lake Baikal is still a 4-hour drive from here.

Chen Chuan came here and planned to visit Lake Baikal.

After all, he often listens to Li Jian's "Lake Baikal". The poetic lakeside, the hazy and mysterious love, and the pure and tender singing are still something I'm looking forward to.

After breakfast, Rokov said: "Boss, the scenery here is infinitely beautiful. I will drive you around the manor today? Only one-tenth of the 50,000-acre manor was visited yesterday."

Chen Chuan looked at Aurora standing aside and said, "If you are not busy, we will go together. If you are busy, just let Aurora take me there."

"Then... am I busy or not?" Rokov thought to himself.

I'm not busy, but it seems a bit redundant to go together.

He said he was busy, after all, he was not secure in his position now, and he didn't know if he would be laid off in the future. He also wanted to show off more while the new boss was here.

"You sit down and eat together, why are you standing?" Chen Chuan said to Aurora.

There are many waiters in this restaurant watching, and it seems self-evident that she, a newly hired employee, can sit down and eat with the new boss. Although they are more open-minded, they are still more shameless when it comes to workplace issues.

Aurora smiled and shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry, so I won't eat breakfast."

Rokov said: "Oh, yes, I have to talk to Mr. Henry from France today. Miss Aurora, please take your boss for a tour of the manor. Drive the military version of the Hummer H1 in parking area 3. "

"I can't drive that car..." Aurora hesitated.

After Chen Chuan finished eating, he wiped his mouth with a tissue, stood up, and said, "Rokov, just give me a simple lesson and I'll do it."

Chen Chuan had never driven or seen the military version of the Hummer H1. Hearing that there was one here, he became interested.

Rokov rolled his eyes and said: "Okay boss, then Avrola, you have some breakfast here, and I will take the boss to get familiar with the car first."

Rokov also knew that if Aurora had to accompany her boss to drive around the manor, she might be put in trouble all morning. Judging from the strength of the new boss's arms, which can easily shoot a 160-pound bow, she would not be able to eat anything in the morning. How can I bear it?

As a general manager, he still has this kind of insight.

Aurora looked at Chen Chuan, and after asking for permission, sat down to eat the rest of breakfast.

Although it was leftover, many dishes had not been touched. After all, the breakfast included specialties from three countries, and Chen Chuan would not be able to finish it no matter how big his appetite was.

…

Hummer H1 military version, the body is made of aluminum alloy, steel, and fiberglass. Its main function is to maintain a high degree of stability on uneven roads. The V-shaped eight-cylinder 6.5-liter diesel engine can produce 170 horsepower and an astonishing 40.1kgm of torque. The towing capacity is more than four tons.

Under the leadership of Rokov, Chen Chuan saw this standard military Hummer H1. It was not designed for civilians, but was born for harsh combat environments.

Compared with the Mercedes-Benz Big G, this is the real "off-road vehicle king".

High ground clearance, large approach and departure angles, wide body, low center of gravity, V8 diesel engine, full-time 4-wheel drive, independent suspension, power steering, gradeability up to 60%, etc., and central tire inflation system .

Rokov gave Chen Chuan a brief introduction and then said: "Boss, the sealed central pressure stabilizing device of this car can maintain the pressure balance of the system and protect the main components from contamination. This system allows the car to operate in water nearly 1 meter deep. You can drive all day without fear of water. Although this car is 13 years old, its performance is still outstanding. It is trustworthy when driving in the Siberian wilderness and is comparable to our GAZ 67."

Chen Chuan sat in the passenger seat and watched Rokov's patient teaching. The former KGB retired agent was deft and explained the car's characteristics and driving methods.

By the time Aurora came out after eating, Chen Chuan had almost learned the lesson.

It is certain that this Hummer H1 will not be that comfortable to ride, but it snowed last night, so it may not be possible to drive an ordinary car out.

"Is there any problem with the air conditioner?" Chen Chuan asked.

"The heating effect is very good. The boss can rest assured that he will not be cold if he wears less clothes or even no clothes at all," Rokov said.

"That's OK, get out of the car."

"Okay."

Rokov got out of the car and put the guns and ammunition, binoculars, tactical backpack, multifunctional saber, steel wire, dry food and water bottle, high-quality food, quick-drying change of clothes, walkie-talkie, and satellite phone in the back seat. He gave Avroila a few more words and watched Avrola get into the co-pilot.

Amidst the roar, the Hummer H1 left the parking area and drove deep into the vast wilderness of the manor.

In the car, the air conditioner was turned on to maximum, but it wasn't cold at all.

"Are you full?" Chen Chuan asked.

"Yes, my stomach is full." Aurora said.

"Full of what?"

Aurora remembered last night, blushed, and asked: "Boss, is this car any different from ordinary civilian cars when driving?"

"It's obviously different. This car is wilder and more powerful. You can press the accelerator deeper and there is no pressure in deep grooves. Although the body is lengthened, it has a low center of gravity and a very stable suspension. It also makes more noise." Chen Chuan commented.

Indeed, these are his real driving experiences. He has never driven such a car in China.

Aurora looked at the map of the manor and said: "Boss, Andrea Hot Spring Manor has a total of 13 springs, 4 of which are in the main building hotel, 1 is in the Sunset Trail Villa, and 8 are distributed in the manor. Of the other eight villas, it’s just that the other eight have dried up.”

Chen Chuan remembered that the system said that within 8 days, the 8 dry springs would be repaired and water would flow again.

Yesterday, one of them should have been repaired, but he didn't know which one it was, so he would drive around all eight villas and then spend the night in the repaired one.

This is bound to be another busy day.

For Aurora, this will be an extremely fulfilling day.
