South America is a place with many scenic spots and many people travel there every year.
When you come to South America, you must visit the Iguazu Falls. As one of the three largest waterfalls in the world, the Iguazu Falls has long been a business card of South America. Every year, more than two million tourists come here to admire the falls.
Yang Jing had previously admired Niagara Falls, one of the three largest waterfalls in the world, but he had never seen the other two waterfalls, Victoria Falls and Iguazu Falls, located at the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe.
Victoria Falls is far away in Africa, and it depends on the situation when you can go there. But Iguazu Falls is right on the edge of Paraguay, less than 300 kilometers away from Asuncion. Compared with China, thousands of miles away, this place is almost like standing at the door of Iguazu Falls.
If I don’t go and take a look, I’d really be feeling sorry for myself.
Although Gege had been to many scenic spots in the world before, she had never seen the Iguazu Falls, so she was very happy to appreciate the widest waterfall in the world.
Since both the boss and his wife wanted to go, the bodyguards naturally had no objection.
Just go.
From Asuncion to Iguazu Falls, you don't even need to take a plane. The 300-kilometer journey requires a plane to descend before it can even reach the flight altitude. That's not enough trouble. So Yang Jing and his team decided to drive to Dongfang City and enjoy the scenery of the tropical rainforest on the way.
The car rental service in the small town of Ita is quite prosperous. Chris and his friends rented four silver-white Mercedes-Benz G-Class cars without much effort.
After driving out of the small town of Ita, take Highway 1 directly, then drive east to Paraguari and then northeast to Highway 2. After arriving at the town of Colonel Oviedo, enter Highway 7 and then continue east to reach Oriental City.
Yang Jing and his team drove the 300-kilometer journey in less than six hours. Of course, this was in Paraguay, and it was quite good to have a road in the rainforest that could reach a speed of 60 to 70 kilometers per hour. If it were in China, it would only take about three hours to drive 300 kilometers on the highway...
However, the road condition is not bad, but this road is very similar to China 20 years ago, with many toll booths and toll sections, which makes Yang Jing and others quite annoyed.
You said this is not a highway, why are you charging tolls...
So fucking poor!
When they were almost reaching Dongfang City, there was a sudden downpour of rain. The rain was so heavy that even the windshield wipers could not wipe away the rain quickly. In desperation, the convoy had to find a spacious place on the side of the road to stop. Then a group of people sat in the car and stared at this rare sight in amazement - the eastern half of the sky was sunny, while the western half was covered with dark clouds.
The scene of heavy rain under the bright sunshine reminded Yang Jing of a very famous song once sung by Qi Qin - "Sunshower".
The heavy rain came and went quickly. After more than ten minutes, it was as if an invisible hand turned off an invisible faucet. The heavy rain that was pouring down a moment ago suddenly stopped, and then the dark clouds in the sky turned into white clouds of various shapes...
Bruno smiled and said, "This kind of rain is very common in tropical areas. Have you seen the classic movie Forrest Gump?"
Gege and Yang Jing nodded. Bruno continued, "There is a scene in the movie that tells about Forrest Gump's time in Vietnam. The movie uses a voice-over to introduce the various strange rainstorms in Vietnam. Forrest Gump said that in Vietnam, there is rain from top to bottom, rain from sideways, and rain from bottom to top, blah blah blah... In fact, those are all real situations. In the tropical rainforest, you can often encounter this kind of unreasonable rainstorm."
Gege smiled and said, "I remember that set of shots. It was so interesting. I like Forrest Gump played by Tom Hanks."
Yang Jing smiled bitterly and said, "Wife, do you feel good saying this to your fiancé?"
Gege burst into laughter, "So you get jealous too..."
Bruno, who was sitting in the passenger seat, and Clark, who was driving, immediately shut up.
When it was raining, the convoy had already traveled to a location about 30 kilometers away from Dongfang City, so when the convoy continued to move forward for a short distance, they saw houses gradually appearing on both sides of the road.
This is already the suburbs of Dongfang City.
Bruno had been here before, so he was very familiar with the place. After seeing that the couple stopped teasing each other, Bruno began to introduce them.
"Boss, if you go further, you will enter Dongfang City. Dongfang City is the second largest city in Paraguay, with a population of nearly 400,000. Before the 1960s, it was just a small border town close to Brazil. However, in the 1960s, the Paraguayan government designated it as a free trade zone. The preferential policies attracted a large number of foreign businessmen to flock here, and Dongfang City gradually prospered. Because Dongfang City is a duty-free city, it is now almost a super-large market. Many businessmen from Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina and other countries gather here. Oh, by the way, there are many Chinese here, the most of whom are from Taiwan Island, and there are also many businessmen from inland China. Boss, Sofia, we can go to the largest Qiaotou Market in Dongfang City later. When we get there, you will definitely meet fellow Chinese people."
Hearing Bruno say this, Gege became interested and asked, "Are there really a lot of Chinese people here?"
