The Arctic fox can withstand the severe cold of minus fifty degrees Celsius, but if there is a warm place, she will not go back to the cold snow nest!
Xia Yu took off his windbreaker and trousers and got into his down sleeping bag. The man and the fox roasted themselves by the still-burning fire and prepared to rest.
With his eyes closed but not yet asleep, he felt that he had a very high affinity for animals. Not to mention the beasts in the sea, he could make some friends with any beast on land as long as they were not too wild.
As long as you cultivate the relationship with top predators like tigers and lions from a young age, your relationship will not be too bad. If you are really afraid that they will hurt people, you can feed each of them a Momotaro brand rice ball to ensure that they are well-behaved and you can pet them whenever you want.
This time he is going to Kanai Island to celebrate the New Year, and the little ones he has fostered in the Crimea Wildlife Park will also be brought to the island. Tigers and lions are better adapted to the tropical climate than Arctic foxes.
The more he thought about it, the heavier it became, and Xia Yu soon fell into a deep sleep. In the biting cold wind, no other small animals rebelled in his tent, so he slept from dusk to dusk.
I woke up again and looked up at my feet. Fox was still sleeping soundly, his even breathing was clearly audible in the tent.
She is still a lazy fox. Who knows which unlucky male fox will find her in the future.
Foxes are usually monogamous and live in family units, and the Arctic fox is no exception. Once Fox leaves her original family to live alone, she will soon find her other half and start a new family.
Just like the Tibetan fox family that Xia Yu and Yin Suya met in the snow area, he also looked forward to Fox passing on his bloodline.
After getting up and packing my bags, it was time to set off again. I added two last pieces of firewood to the stove and Xia Yu baked two pancakes for breakfast.
The smell of the pancake woke Fox up. Foxes are carnivorous animals, but they are also omnivorous. He tore off half a pancake for her, and the man and the fox quickly finished their breakfast.
After dismantling the tent and loading it into the back of the expedition vehicle, Xia Yu took Fox in and they continued to drive forward.
The expedition journey is always short, and he will have to say goodbye to Alexandria Island in three days.
Arriving at the landing shore, Xia Yu took out his mobile phone to wake up the Polaris and remotely controlled the icebreaking exploration boat to approach the island.
Soon, a beam of searchlight cut through the darkness and rapidly approached the shore.
"Goodbye, Fox, I hope you find a good husband."
Xia Yu and the little fox waved goodbye, their human eyes revealing reluctance. Who let this human provide them with food and shelter?
Then follow along?
No, she still preferred Alexandria.
After taking a last look at Xia Yu, Fox turned around and left. She was going to find happiness.
The Polaris stopped 1 nautical mile away. Xia Yu returned to the ship and announced that the expedition was officially over and they were about to return.
The planned route was not to return the original way, but to cross the last ice belt, enter the Pacific Ocean through the Bering Strait, and then head straight to Kanai Island.
The entire voyage is more than 12,000 kilometers, and at the Polaris's speed of 20 knots, it would take 14 days to travel day and night.
Xia Yu’s previous plan was to return to Kanai Island to smelt gold again, but now that the journey is so long, he has to find something to do.
In the mezzanine, he DIYed the mold for the floor tiles himself, and the stove was ready-made.
The Polaris is not an invincible-class ship, and it does not have a fighter jet engine as a furnace. What should he do if his alchemy addiction suddenly comes up? So he prepared a furnace in advance.
The melting point of gold is 1064.43℃, which is lower than copper's 1083.4℃. Melting gold is as easy as melting brass.
Xia Yu prepared his stuff. Because the gold bricks were too large, the crucible could only hold one at a time. However, the melting speed was very fast. The gold brick turned into real gold liquid, which was then poured into the mold and gradually cooled and solidified.
"Sizzle~~"
The mold and the gold shaped into the size of floor tiles were sunk into water together to cool down. The changed gold bricks were taken out of the water. The surface was very rough and needed further polishing.
Gold is too soft and will inevitably leave scratches when used as floor tiles, but who cares?
If there are scratches, it means it's old. Just polish it. Xia Yu can afford this loss. After all, all he has is gold, and the entire ocean is sleeping with countless gold and silver treasures.
If there is no need to sell precious metals to maintain life, then the precious metals held will have only one purpose, which is to decorate life.
The beehive is yellow, and the beehive base should also be magnificent, like a dragon's treasure house, always shining with golden light.
On January 13, 2020, the Polaris successfully arrived at Kana Island and handed over the final berthing to the program operation. Xia Yu came out of the cockpit.
The completely completed port was now filled with people coming to greet him.
"Mr. Xia, welcome home!"
Regardless of whether their faces were Eastern or Western, they all spoke Chinese in unison.
"Welcome to join this big family. From now on, the work of Kana Island will be handed over to you."
Xia Yu glanced at everyone and spoke condescendingly.
The labor cost of 160 people on the island is not low, but it is all worth it.
"Yes, Mr. Xia!"
After receiving a positive response, Xia Yu slowly walked to the dock, and the 20 maids on the Polaris also got off the ship with their luggage.
This was their first time on Kana Island, and their faces were full of curiosity. But to be honest, this place is much better than the Arctic. The only difference is that the spring and autumn maid outfits are too hot, so they still have to wear short skirts and short sleeves.
Xia Yu did not rush to leave the dock. He first looked at the repaired fuel depot. The ship's heavy oil, aviation kerosene, and diesel gasoline were all stored separately and could be used for at least one year.
