Chapter 4: Arrival
(Thank you to the chicks one by one, with a smile in their eyes, drunkyong, adei, Abei, the arrow against the sea, no more, Red Star, National Treasure Panda, and Qiqi for their support.) Brothers, the red ticket and monthly ticket are smashed over, let's rush to the list!)
It's already the rainy season on the West African continent in early June, and there are few decent regional roads in Oyo State.
In the afternoon, they set out from the village of Ibogu and made a circle from Cardeiro, the eastern capital of Oyo state, and arrived in the city of Draculamo late at night.
The local medical level of Draculamo can be said to be relatively high in West Africa, but compared with China, it is like Han Hong sprinting with Bolton.
However, in addition to several Chinese clinics in Draculamo, there is also a China-Qatar Friendship Hospital built with domestic aid to Africa in the 70s.
The China-Qatar Friendship Hospital was built in the early 70s, and has not been expanded or renovated since then, and the conditions are simpler, as a symbol of friendship between China and Qatar, but in various BBS forums in China, there is no shortage of spittle-stars - the country will regularly dispatch first-class medical teams to the China-Qatar Friendship Hospital to carry out medical assistance work.
For the sake of his life, Cao Mo did not return to the dormitory, but went directly to the China-Qatar Friendship Hospital for an emergency examination.
However, in addition to Cao Mo's body is still a little weak, there is no sign of snake venom in his body at this time, and even the symptoms of suspected African malaria have disappeared, and two local doctors are on duty in the emergency department, suspecting that Cao Mo has made a special trip to entertain them.
Cao Mo was not relieved, and decided to stay in the hospital for two days for observation, and then do a comprehensive physical examination, and asked Kabuja to drive Guo Jian and Song Yuqing back to the branch dormitory first.
The inpatient unit is two brick buildings, unpainted, and the red bricks are exposed, leaving traces of rainwater erosion.
The interior of the ward is also quite simple, similar to the township health center in China.
The medical staff are still mainly locals, especially the nurses who are busy in front of the bed, all of whom are local women, with dark complexion, strong flesh, and pink uniforms, so that Cao Mo, who is lying on the bed, can experience less than half of the sense of fun and ritual.
After Kabuja sent Guo Jian and Song Yuqing back to the branch dormitory, he did not go home, and drove to the hospital in the early morning, so he borrowed a recliner from the doctor and slept in the corner of the ward.
Seeing this scene, Cao Mo's mood was a little bit complicated and guilty.
............
............
The local law and order was chaotic, and Cao Mo and Guo Jian arrived at Draculamo on the first day with Yang Deshan, the general manager of the branch, and they had a deep understanding.
Dongsheng Group is mainly engaged in the production of grain, oil and building profiles, and wants to explore overseas markets in the past two years.
Before arriving at Draculamo, the pearl of West Africa and the Paris of Africa, they were still full of excitement and anti-expectation when they flew over the Atlantic Ocean set like a sapphire on the earth.
It is as if there are countless African girls with big hearts like the Atlantic Ocean, waiting for their presence.
The reception hall of Draculamo International Airport is as simple as a grain depot in a domestic township, standing alone in the open field.
When they got off the plane and saw this scene, they directly gave up their vision of the so-called most prosperous city in West Africa, but it was not a big blow.
After walking out of the airport hall, they hailed a local taxi and rushed to the China Business Center established by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation in Draculamo.
The car stopped halfway, and the taxi driver took out a gun and put the cold muzzle of the gun against Yang Deshan's head.
Yang Deshan was a little airsick, sitting in the passenger seat at the time, and Cao Mo and Guo Jian were sitting in the back seat.
They didn't know how Yang Deshan felt when he was held to the head at gunpoint, but they felt that the driver didn't want to talk to them by pulling over to the side of the road and pulling out his gun.
The three of them handed over the cash, mobile phones and all the items that the robbers could see in an extremely friendly manner, and now the robbers drove away, and the desolation in their hearts was gone.
Do they need someone else's personal rumors to understand the chaos of Draculamo?
The three of them lived in the China Business Center, and Yang Deshan directly excused himself from the business center under the pretext of poor English, and kicked Cao Mo and Guo Jian out to reapply for various documents to complete the task of inspecting the market.
The group soon decided to set up an office in Dracula first, and it was also Cao Mo and Guo Jian, two ghosts, who were afraid to run the branch registration, site selection, office and dormitory rental.
is also such an experience, even if they did not hear the endless cases of violent robbery against Chinese businessmen in the follow-up, and did not hear many rumors of collusion between local employees and criminal gangs, Yang Deshan and Guo Jian were also extremely vigilant and repulsive to local employees, and they had no good impression at all.
Although the group wants to set up one or two points in Africa first, and has no determination to expand the African business for the time being, Cao Mo and they are also very idle in Draculamo, but the framework of the West African branch always has to be set up, and they also have to do a market research every once in a while, contact several agents and potential customers, and say that they are not purely taking salaries and being moths in Decullam.
The group did not have any more employees willing to come over, so it was essential for the West African branch to hire drivers, cooks and clerks from the local area.
Yang Deshan is a veteran backbone of Dongsheng, and he usually can't come back in China, while Guo Jian has as little contact with local employees as possible.
Cao Mo is an ordinary employee in Dongsheng, and Guo Jian, as his direct supervisor, will push him on the head if there is anything to hand over to the local employees.
In addition to complaining in his heart, who else can Cao Mo push to?
In the branch, he was the mouthpiece for Yang Deshan, Guo Jian and local employees, and Kabuja and other local employees also directly came to him for feedback on any problems.
Of course, in addition to learning Yoruba from Kabuja and his normal work, he also deliberately avoided deeper contact.
However, in the past few days, he has been taking care of Kabuja, and if his intuition is correct, Kabuja obviously genuinely regards him as a friend he can trust.
What hell, it's intuition again!
............
............
"You draw a card first, and then you can tell me the suit of the card truthfully, or you can lie to me and see if I can guess if you are telling the truth or lying......"
The next morning, Cao Mo did several tests at the China-Qatar Friendship Hospital, but nothing was found, and he remained in the hospital at noon, waiting for the last two examination reports in the afternoon.
With nothing to do in the ward, he asked Kabuja to buy a deck of poker and play a game of guessing suit with him.
"I have a plum blossom ...... in my hand"
Kabuja thought that Cao Mo was hospitalized and extremely boring, and the two of them really had to find something to do, so they couldn't sit still.
"Alas!"
Kabuja can't lie too much, such a simple game, his eyes are erratic, Cao Mo doesn't need any intuition or intuition to know that he is lying.
Even after playing a few games, Cao Mo couldn't figure out whether it was because he was usually good at observing words and feelings, or if he really suddenly had a terrifying intuition, did he go to the gambling house to play two hands after being discharged from the hospital?
In the past four years, the scale of Draculamo who is difficult to integrate into the local society is not large, but near the Kennett Building, there is also a Chinese casino, and Cao Mo and Guo Jian occasionally go to have a pastime.
Cao Mo thought to himself that he really had a terrifying intuition, and that was the paradise where he could be like a fish in water and realize his ultimate dream of being a young model in the clubhouse, but thinking of Draculamore's rampant crime, Cao Mo was like being pushed into the cold Arctic Ocean all of a sudden:
You have to be clear-minded, you can't hold on to your anger in Draculamo, and your life won't last long!
"What are you guys playing, why did you come into the house and see you smiling so badly that your face collapsed in the blink of an eye?"
Song Yuqing walked into the ward, put a fruit basket on the low cabinet at the end of the bed, and asked curiously,
"How was the morning physical examination, there are no problems, right?"
"The report that came out in the morning was all right. Cao Mo said.
"By the way, Mr. Yang rushed back to Draculamo City in the morning, saying that the group has attached great importance to the African business, and pulled Guo Jian to prepare some materials, knowing that your situation is not particularly serious, he will not come to see you, and appoint me as the plenipotentiary. You don't have anything to do, right?" Song Yuqing said.
Yang Deshan usually treats him as a transparent person, and Cao Mo doesn't care whether Yang Deshan visits or not, hands a stack of cards to Song Yuqing, and says:
"Sister Yuqing, I have a special function, do you believe it or not? You look at a random card and say a suit, you can tell the truth, or you can lie to me, but can I see that you are lying?"
"Who are you fooling?" Song Yuqing glanced at Cao Mo, she sat on the edge of the bed, took the card, and stared at Cao Mo with dark eyes, "I said this card is a square, do you believe it or not?"
At this time, it was the rainy season in Kanem and even the entire southern continent of Africa, and the weather was relatively cool, Song Yuqing wore a pair of washed blue jeans, and a light blue T-shirt with lace pleats between the waist and armpits on her upper body, and her skin became fairer and fairer.
Although Song Yuqing has always complained that her waist is not thin enough, she is sitting on the edge of the bed at this time, her legs are plump and slender, and her plump and full breasts and buttocks make the curve of her waist look quite perfect.
A twenty-four-five-year-old newlywed young woman is at the time of her delicate beauty, and her waist is too thin but has no beauty.
This is what Cao Mo heard his father say.
That old bastard is still in prison for impulsive murder of women in his forties, and he has never been a woman from a good family in his life.
At this time, Cao Mo felt that his father's taste was right, so he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said:
"You're not lying. ”
"Haha, I'm lying, I'm holding a 6 of hearts - your special function is not good. Song Yuqing jumped up in the ward like a little girl, her full chest trembling slightly, with a wave-like movement.
Rough waves, what a fitting word.
"It is said that beautiful women are the best at lying, it seems that I am not strong enough in front of Sister Yuqing. ”
Song Yuqing glanced at Cao Mo proudly: "When did your little mouth become so sweet?"
Cao Mo saw that Song Yuqing was not interested in continuing to play this very childish game, smiled and took back the cards, and put them on the bed to the low cabinet, but she couldn't help but be shocked in her heart.
From Song Yuqing's expression just now, he couldn't tell that she was lying at all, but his strong intuition told him that she did deliberately say the wrong suit, Cao Mo hesitated, should he find a chance to go to the casino to try two?
We're not greedy, if we win him a thousand dollars a day, the young model of the club will wave at him!
