Chapter 52: Clery's Winter (Part II)
"What are you doing, you bastards who don't want to die well, don't rob me of my stuff!"
A woman's scream was like lightning in the dark night, and despite the noise outside, it still reached Zhou Ming and Karelina's ears through the car.
Zhou Ming and Karelina looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that not far from the car, several people were pulling together, it seemed that several men were grabbing a woman's things, and the woman was desperately grabbing her own things.
Although the Northern Russians were later known as a fighting nation, no one came forward to stop this qiē at the moment, and everyone was just doing their own thing numbly, as if it were just air.
In fact, it is normal to think about it, as the economy of North Russia continues to deteriorate, the ruble depreciates wildly, and prices skyrocket, even people in the middle income class have begun to sell their property on the streets, not to mention others.
When people reach a desperate situation, they can do anything, and some people want to be full.
Judging from the expressions of the other people next to him, it was obvious that this was not the first time they had seen it, so they were all commonplace, and no one would come up to meddle with this matter.
However, Zhou Ming looked at that side fixedly, frowning, because Zhou Ming felt that there was a figure over there that was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while, but fortunately, at this time, Karelina's voice sounded: "That's Zhulayeva, Mr. Zhou Ming, let's go over and help her, okay?"
, she was the friend that Karelina had found to take them into the White House that day.
Since they knew, he immediately let the car stop on the side of the road, then opened the door and got out of the car, and walked towards that side with Karelina.
"What are you doing? Let go of my friend!"
Karenina scolded those people loudly, and Zhulayeva heard Karelina's voice, looked up and saw Zhou Ming who came with Karelina, crying: "You help me, they want to rob me!"
Zhou Ming definitely wanted to help when he came over, but Zhou Ming didn't have time to make a move, so he rushed over first. It is worth mentioning here that at the time just now, he did not rush in front of the horse, although Zhou Ming also said to let him help, he still got out of the car with Zhou Ming and went over together, and only then did he rush out in a few arrows.
This is a qualified bodyguard, because there, only Zhou Ming's safety is the most important, and as for other things, they can only be done after ensuring Zhou Ming's safety.
It is precisely by following this bodyguard criterion that he will follow Zhou Ming over, because the situation on the streets of Grad is very chaotic at the moment, he must first ensure Zhou Ming's safety, and ensure that Zhou Ming can be observed within the scope of his own observation, and then he will do other things.
After driving away the Northern Russians, Zhou Ming and Karelina helped Zhulayeva clean up the things scattered all over the place.
Looking at the ornaments and perfumes that had fallen to the ground, Karelina asked her in surprise: "My God, Zhulayeva, why are you selling things here? Aren't these your favorite things before? This perfume is your favorite brand, you have tried a lot of ways to buy it back, why are you selling it now? ”
Faced with Karelina's doubts, Zhulayeva sighed: "I can't help it, you know that I'm just an ordinary civil servant, my salary is so much, and now the price of goods has risen so much, if I don't sell these things, I won't be able to eat at home tomorrow." ”
Although Zhou Ming had already thought of Zhou Ming's answer, he couldn't help but be surprised, the reason was very simple, under the influence of fifty years of thinking in his previous life, if someone told Zhou Ming that the people who worked in Zhongnanhai had no money to eat, even if this situation was normal, it would still be surprising.
Of course, it was not only Zhou Ming who was surprised, but Karelina was also surprised: "But Zhulaeva, aren't you working in the White House? There is the Central Parliament building of the North Russian Republic, why is the situation in the country like this now, doesn't the central government help the people and its own people, and doesn't give you subsidies?"
"Subsidies? Those bureaucrats are already thankful that they don't want to take money from us, and they dare to ask them for subsidies. Zhulayeva said with a wry smile.
Zhou Ming and Karelina were silent, Karenina hated those bureaucrats who were not as good as scum, and Zhou Ming didn't know what to say.
But at this time, Zhulayeva suddenly turned her eyes to Zhou Ming's side, and said to Zhou Ming like a drowning man seeing a life-saving straw: "Mr. Zhou Ming, is it you? Great, I finally found you, I know that you have great powers, can you help me?"
Zhulayeva's sudden words made Zhou Ming stunned, and Zhou Ming was inexplicable, because in Zhou Ming's own impression, the intersection between himself and her was only when he went to the White House to find Nikolavich for a drink, but that intersection was only in a hurry, and even because of the language barrier between the two sides, he had not directly said even a word to her, so Zhou Ming didn't recognize her at the first time.
It was for this reason that Zhou Ming couldn't understand how she could see herself and see the savior?
Zhou Ming turned his head and looked at Karelina suspiciously, because if he wanted to say the reason, it could only be her.
Karelina understood what Zhou Ming meant, she shook her head and said, "I have been with you Mr. Zhou Ming for this time, and it is the first time I have seen Zhulayeva since that day. ”
This answer was completely expected by Zhou Ming, because it was true, at this time, Zhulayeva's words gave Zhou Ming a perfect answer, she said: "Mr. Zhou Ming, since you can persuade Mr. President to make such a powerful speech and single-handedly promote the great change of our North Russian Republic, then you will definitely have a way to solve this problem in our North Russia right now, right?"
This sentence made Zhou Ming a little helpless, and it was superfluous to think about it for a long time, this girl just thought that since she could move the president, she could also solve the economic crisis.
Such an idea is undoubtedly wishful thinking, but for these North Russians who are struggling with rampant inflation now, any hope is a lifesaver.
Zhou Ming shook his head helplessly and said to her: "Miss Zhulaeva, I am very grateful that you believe in me so much, but I really can't do anything about your economic crisis. ”
For Zhou Ming's answer, Zhulayeva did not accept it at all: "Impossible! Mr. Zhou Ming, you must not want to help, right? I beg you to help, if you refuse to help, all our Northern Russians will not be able to live! By the way, I know that you Chinese like to kneel when asking for help, then I will also kneel for you, just ask you to help us." ”
Saying that, Zhulayeva really knelt down for Zhou Ming, and this is the most prosperous street in the entire Soviet Union, and it is still an economic crisis, and it is crowded with Northern Russians who are all selling here, no matter how numb the others are, they also attracted their attention, and now seeing Zhulaeva's movements, they immediately reacted.
"Sir, do you really have a way to help us solve our current predicament? Miss Zhulayeva, I know that she works in the White House, so you must be some kind of official or a rich man, right? Then we will also kneel down for you, please help us, please!"
I don't know who took the lead, these Northern Russians around me were begging Zhou Ming for a word, and in the end, they all knelt down with Zhulayeva and begged Zhou Ming.
Looking at the Northern Russians around him who were kneeling down to him, Zhou Ming was stunned, this was a situation he couldn't have imagined, but if you really look into it, these people's thoughts are the same as Zhulaeva, like a drowning person who sees hope, he will want to catch it regardless of it.
But the idea is that this idea is easy to explain, but when it is actually encountered, it is still surprising and difficult to accept.
Looking at the surrounding Northern Russians hula lala kneeling on the ground, if it was replaced by ordinary people, I was afraid that I would be in a hurry and didn't know what to do, but Zhou Ming just calmed down in an instant, he didn't rush to make a statement, but looked at the Northern Russians kneeling around him very strictly. Zhou Ming's strictness was also quickly transmitted to the surrounding Northern Russians, and their begging voices became smaller and smaller, and at this time, Zhou Ming spoke.
"Don't you think yourselves are ashamed? Do you really think that I am capable of saving you by asking me for someone whom you do not know at all? Do you not have the slightest judgment of yourselves? Do you not think that what you are doing now is deceiving yourself?"
Zhou Ming's words were as loud as Huang Zhongdalu, and they suddenly realized: Yes! Why should we ask for a Chinese we don't know, are we all crazy?
With this in mind, the Russians got up from the ground one by one, and then the whole Grad Street returned to its previous appearance, except for Zhulaeva, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Zhou Ming and Karelina walked over to help Zhulayeva and said: "Miss Zhulayeva, we Chinese pay attention to saying that things find places, so no matter what we do, it's not good to say on this street, let's pack up our things first, and then get in the car, okay?"
Zhulayeva has already regarded Zhou Ming as her last hope, and at this time, it is natural that whatever Zhou Ming says, she will do what she does.
(I'm sorry, a lot of things are happening today, and the small square can only write one change.) )
