War Photographer's Notebook

Chapter 157 Ji Ma's New Idea
On the day the students brought by Sui Sui arrived at Inta, in addition to reaping retro photos and the rare aurora, they were particularly satisfied with the expanded hot springs and the venison placed by the campfire.

After a night of rejuvenation, early the next morning, these girls did not need to be led, and each of them got out of the warm tent together and went into the mineral processing workshop with wooden floors.It was not until the hunters prepared a surprisingly calorific breakfast that they reluctantly returned to the tent.

After breakfast, these girls were led by two hunters, one male and one female, and began to learn the use of shotguns under the translation of Wei Ran and Sui Sui.

The shotgun Jima prepares for these girls is the most easily available SKS semi-automatic rifle, and from the beginning of the teaching, it is stipulated that only one bullet can be loaded in the magazine, and it has been repeatedly emphasized that it is not allowed to load before seeing the prey. It can be regarded as preventing the occurrence of danger from the root cause.

In addition to these SKS for hunting, the careful quarter horse also prepared a lot of military weapons purely for them to experience.From small Makarov pistols to SVD sniper rifles and various civilian shotguns that use shotguns, even PKM light machine guns are all available.

But without exception, if you want to experience these weapons, you have to pay extra per bullet.Fortunately, their charges are fairly reasonable, even lower than the prices of bullets that can be bought in Kazan.

Except for the Italian girl with a bad name who generously bought two machine gun belts. With the assistance of a patrol member, she focused on a certain truck that had been scrapped as early as the Soviet era. A picture of a boy happily played shooting.The rest of the girls chose to buy a magazine for each weapon more wisely and take turns to experience it.

For a while, gunshots rang out one after another in the abandoned mine, as well as excited screams that were not much quieter than gunshots.

Thanks to this, Wei Ran and Sui Sui were finally able to temporarily escape from the translation work. After taking a few photos of the girls, they followed Ji Ma into the warm tent.

"How did you find this place?" Sui Sui asked curiously after taking off the noise-canceling headphones.

"Coincidence" Wei Ran smiled, and briefly introduced all the previous experiences, but skipped the experience of treating the ranger who was shot with Jima on this mine bed.

Hearing this, Sui Sui looked at Ji Ma, "When our exams are over, maybe we can bring a group of classmates over. It is estimated that there will be at least 20 people. There may be many boys by then. You should prepare more bullet."

"Really?" Jima, who was busy pouring coffee into the thermos cups of the girls outside, raised his head in surprise, and accidentally poured hot coffee into his hands.

"No problem!"

Sui Sui said proudly, "I major in tourism management. Many students in our department are interested in coming to see, and whether hunting or playing with guns, they should be very attractive to them, so maybe they will be able to attract them in the future." Come more people."

Needless to say the rest, the excited Ji Ma went on the road and said, "As long as they are willing to bring people, we can make some profits! Victor, what is your word Huaxia?"

"Commission" Wei Ran replied with a smile.

Ji Ma nodded vigorously, "Yes, pick up the car! Just pick up the car! Your classmates will pick up the car as long as they can bring tourists!"

It's not worth mentioning, brother Wei Ran and Sui Sui looked at each other with a strange expression, tacitly did not correct each other's out-of-tune Chinese words.

When the girls outside had vented enough, the hunters first gathered the weapons they had used for experimentation and locked them in the cabin of the plane, then stepped on their skis and re-entered the forest not far away. Not long after, these hunters even ingeniously changed all their weapons. Dressed up as Santa Claus, he returned to the flat ground in the middle of the mine with a similarly decorated reindeer sleigh.Even Sui Sui in the tent couldn't sit still anymore, picked up the SLR on the table and rushed out.

Wei Ran, who also picked up the old DSLR, reminded before leaving the tent, "Jima, it seems that you have to buy a professional enough camera, and by the way, you can go to Teacher Dalia to learn how to take pictures."

"If you make money this time, buy it!" Ji Ma happily accepted Wei Ran's suggestion. While talking, he also put the thermos cups filled with coffee and with their names on them into a small basket.

Hearing this, Wei Ran slowed down and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, can you make money this time?"

"Of course!"

Ji Ma had no intention of keeping secrets from Wei Ran, and replied cheerfully, "Although there are not many people this time, after excluding the cost, each of us can earn at least 20 rubles. And after all, this is the number one time, so it’s not too little. And it’s not counting the money for selling bullets and the money for hunting tomorrow. Those bullets and prey have no cost. If it’s like she said, [-] tourists can come at a time, and the same five God, each of us may be able to get [-] to [-] or even more."

"You can earn what you have." Wei Ran no longer had any doubts, opened the curtain of the tent and got out.

After Ji Ma eagerly gave each girl coffee in a thermos cup, and danced and gestured to remind them to put on the snow goggles, gloves and scarves in the sleigh car.Only then did he personally call a sleigh cart, pull Wei Ran and Sui Sui holding the camera, and follow the sleigh convoy away from the mine deposit and into the dense forest also covered with thick snow.

After wandering in the forest on a sleigh for half a day, and after taking pictures one after another, as the sky darkened, everyone returned to the camp. After a sumptuous dinner, they boarded the plane again , and flew towards the east after taking off.

In the warm cabin full of noise, Sui Sui turned into a tour guide, using a communication headset to introduce the Ural Mountains that have already crawled under the feet of everyone and why Europe and Asia use this mountain range as the dividing line.

And after crossing this mountain range, Alili, who is daring, even turned off the engine of the An-2 plane, allowing this plane, which is no longer young, to provide the most quiet environment for everyone in the cabin to enjoy the outside world Gorgeous aurora.

Compared to the girls including Sui Sui, who had already attracted all their attention by the shocking scenery outside the porthole, Wei Ran kept gesturing to Jima nervously to ask about the situation.

On the contrary, Ji Mahun waved his hand indifferently to indicate that it was okay, stood up unhurriedly, pulled out a piece of seat belt from the bulkhead and connected it to his belt, and then took off a thing similar to a tractor rocker. Shaking Wei Ran in his hand.

After gliding freely for as long as 10 minutes, Alili, who was in charge of piloting the plane, started the engine again, and controlled the old plane, which was almost close to the top of the tree, to climb steadily for a while. At the same time, another A following plane approached very boldly and performed a thrilling tumbling action under the cameras of those girls.

"This coquettish job can only be done by a desperate Maozi." Wei Ran muttered in horror, until the other An 2 "rolled" away, and then he was slightly relieved.

After flying under the brilliant aurora for a full hour, Alili finally changed course, crossed the Ural Mountains again, and landed steadily on the brightly lit abandoned iron ore bed.

While the girls were led by Suisui into the brightly lit mineral processing workshop to soak in the hot springs, Jima and Alili also approached Wei Ran who had just moved out the guqin to practice for a while.

"What's the matter?" Wei Ran smoothly closed the wooden box containing the guqin.

"Get you a drink"

Jima took out a bottle of vodka from his arms with a hippie smile, unscrewed it, and poured the cold liquid into the cups Alili had just set up, while Misha, who came in a little later, brought a few bottles of vodka with him. The cans were opened one by one.

For some unknown reason, Wei Ran took the wine glass, drank it happily, and then looked at the three of them curiously. If the three of them didn't have something special, they would never have taken the initiative to come to the door at this time.

After drinking a glass of wine, Jima and Alili looked at each other, poured wine into the glass again and said bluntly, "Victor, we need your help."

Wei Ran put down the wine glass he just raised, "What's the matter?"

"After these girls are gone, how about going with us to an abandoned military base in the east of the Ural Mountains?" Jima scratched his head, "That place was accidentally discovered by Alili before, we would like to ask you to help take a look , Is there any value in developing it into a tourist attraction?"

"Abandoned military base?"

Wei Ran frowned. When the Soviet Union disintegrated, things were thrown away, including military bases.But these three haven't managed the camp outside the tent well yet, so why did they remember the abandoned military base they went to develop again?
As if guessing Wei Ran's doubts, Jima took the initiative to explain, "Most of the weapons and ammunition we used to experience today were found in that abandoned military base. Today Aurora said that the firearms When the shooting experience can attract many tourists, we immediately thought of it.”

Aurora in Jima's mouth is Sui Sui's Russian name, but this name has nothing to do with her original "Goddess of Dawn". Just a first encounter on a cruiser.

Wei Ran, whose curiosity was aroused, hesitated for a moment and asked, "But if I go with you, who will send them back to Kazan?"

"I'll take them back!" Misha said proactively, "I can speak some English, so it's not a big problem to communicate with them."

"And I have contacted Ms. Zhou today, and she will pick you up in Kazan." Jima said immediately.

Now that the other party has made arrangements, Wei Ran nodded cheerfully, "In this case, after they leave, go to the abandoned military base you mentioned!"
