Charlize Theron had a great day, but even the Year 12 students, who were five or six years older than her, were all hairy kids in her eyes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As the old saying goes, nothing can be compared, Charlie compared those people with Zhang Nan, who is only 21 years old this year, and then ......

Whether you are a top student, a scumbag, a club leader, a basketball captain, or a rich second generation driving a wild carriage... In her eyes, they have become hairy children.

It's a tragic thing, but those lads who feel good about themselves don't know it - unlucky, they ran into the Charlize Theron that Hawking said "even in an infinite parallel universe, you can't go on a date".

......

The days are still passing, Zhang Nan wandered around the antique and thrift markets in New York for several days, and there was no big gain, just to help the bodyguards find some fun.

In fact, there are a lot of things, I just don't want to leave New York, and I spend more time with Nicole and Jenny, which makes me feel a little at home.

On January 20, George Herbert Walker Bush was inaugurated as president of the United States, and Zhang Nan watched the live TV broadcast. The very next day, the Hungarian Communist Party was forced to relinquish its position as the sole leading party guaranteed in the Constitution.

Someone is ready to send himself to the guillotine!

When he saw the news about Hungary at home, Zhang Nan unconsciously said: "This is a big gift from Reagan to Bush, and there is going to be a big problem in Eastern Europe!"

Nicole seemed to think for a moment and asked, "Are you sure there will be dominoes?"

"Definitely, I think in two or three years at most, the current political system in Eastern Europe will be completely finished. ”

Speaking of which, I have talked many times about Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union in previous family meetings, and now I should just watch the lively crowd of onlookers, but I don't dare to go to the side.

Politics, when it will affect your own interests, you have to pay attention, and it has nothing to do with yourself, of course, just watch the excitement when you have time, otherwise you will be tired to watch.

Especially in today's Eastern Europe, authoritarian experts will be visually fatigued, not to mention prone to brain knots.

Not wanting to pay too much attention to the TV, Jenny said on the side: "By the way, Alan, don't mess around when you go to Africa tomorrow, be safe and put first." ”

"Yes. ”

Nicole also pointed to her stomach, just understand.

After being a good man at home for a few days, it's time to go to Africa.

On the Canadian side, everything is going well, the ice highway is extremely efficient, the transportation efficiency of the drivers from China far exceeds that of the North American drivers, and the accident rate is also lower than the "gold mine ice highway" index in previous years.

The mine in Australia has entered a state of sampling minimum-scale mining, but so far Zhang Nan has no plans to go to see it, because the summer is said to be super hot, reaching about 40 degrees!

Fortunately, it is in the desert, and the nights are very cool, and the workers choose to work at night and early in the morning, and rest in the camp and blow the air conditioner during the day.

If you want to go to Australia, you will have to wait another two or three months.

The land for the African mines has been bought from local tribes, and relations with the governments of Botswana and Zimbabwe have been initially good.

This trip was an official invitation letter from the relevant departments of the other party, and Zhang Nan set off: first go to Botswana, which is said to be second to the rich countries in southern Africa in terms of economic conditions compared to South Africa.

Interestingly, Botswana has not only sent an invitation to the Stars International Diamond Group, but also the Ministry of Tourism.

Botswana is a sparsely populated country, with 38% of the country's land area designated as protected areas, in addition to being rich in minerals. In the past, there were many European tourists there, and now we are preparing to develop North American tourists vigorously.

Since the discovery of diamonds 20 years ago, Botswana and its neighbours have been at odds with each other, but they have remained relatively stable. Moreover, since a few years ago, he has been bent on developing the economy, and he is quite polite to Western conglomerates.

Of course, the same is true for the East.

......

Departing early the next morning, the voyage was long enough, almost 14 hours, and the distance in a straight line was 300 kilometres shorter than to Pretoria, South Africa.

It's still quite cold in New York, so I boarded the plane directly at the airport.

"Uncle Allen!"

A crisp children's voice came, and there was a little guest on the plane, it was Lily Greeney, Alice Greenie's baby daughter.

A blonde beauty with blue eyes, looks like a doll, and wears children's clothes from the French brand Bonpoint.

Lovely.

"Lily, where's Mommy?"

Compared with Charlize Theron, little Lily is a real little girl, and it is difficult to find the little ones who hide and seek in the plane.

I didn't see Alice, but it was Randy who arrived at the airport early with Lily.

The little fleshy hand of the villain pointed his head back: "Mom has gone to the back, and now Uncle Bear is playing with me." ”

Zhang Nan has a black line, but Randy, who is known as the big bear, doesn't care: once he accompanied the boss to Alice's house, and the big man took the child to the small community playground and played the role of the big bear.

The child remembered: the name of "Uncle Big Bear" was taught to Lily by Randy himself, and of course such a request must be met!

This time, Zhang Nan brought Alice, who is also a superficial flight attendant Zhang, and now he should be arranging work in the back.

As for the little girl, it is best not to go to Africa, but after the last cold wave arrived in New York, Alice almost didn't dare to take her daughter outside.

Unlike Zhang Nan, a guy who hates heat and is not afraid of cold, Xiao Lily is not afraid of heat and hates the winter in New York.

It's easy to get sick when it's cold, and I got sick last year: the doctor advised not to get cold, and it would be best if you could escape New York and go south in winter, and it is estimated that this cold-sensitive physique will not change until you are seven or eight years old.

It's also a "rich system", and if you live in the wrong place, it's troublesome, and if you're in Florida, it's not a bird thing.

This trip to Africa, it's not cold, just take the little girl, otherwise Alice will not worry about leaving the child in New York for her parents to take with her.

Is it hot in Africa?

Summer temperatures in Botswana are actually quite good, with temperatures ranging from 20 to 30 degrees per day during this time, and the highest temperature is 323 degrees if not in exceptional circumstances.

Even if Zhang Nan hates heat, as a young man who has worked out from Jiangnan, where 378 degrees is commonplace in summer, the temperature in Botswana is just a little uncomfortable.

As for Lily, the doll, it is not good to be a flower in the greenhouse, and it still needs to go through a drop of wind and frost.

There was a general practitioner on the plane, and the staff recruited by the "United Forces" also knew a little bit about pediatrics: when I went to Africa, I brought more than a dozen kilograms of medicines, not to mention that I couldn't forget the medicines that my child needed for a cold.

At this time, Zhang Nan leaned down and picked up the little girl, kissed the little girl on the face, and deliberately made a very loud sound.

"You have to be obedient this time, Uncle is taking you out for the first time, so you can't make trouble. ”

Lily also kissed Zhang Nan on the face, "Lily must be obedient, Lily wants to see giraffes and lions, and hippos..."

"Hippos don't have to, giraffes must have..."

When he arrived at the spacious lounge, Zhang Nan sat down and let the little girl sit on his lap.

"Pull Hook!"

Zhang Nan had no choice but to stretch out her little finger and make an agreement to "pull the hook and hang herself" together, which was all taught to her by Zhang Nan.

After finalizing the agreement that if she couldn't see the giraffe, Zhang Nan would take her to eat and drink freshly squeezed watermelon juice and orange juice, Zhang Nan felt as if she had fooled the child again.

A child of this age is very easy to fool, because she has no idea which goal is more difficult to achieve......

"Come, let me see, do you have tooth decay?"

The little girl immediately grinned, and by the way, her upper and lower jaws touched, and the sound of her teeth hitting was a little crisp.

"Don't keep bumping, beware of falling out teeth. After speaking, Zhang Nan pretended to be a dentist and examined the little man's teeth in detail.

"Well, yes, there are no tooth decays, and it tastes good!"

"Well, Lily's teeth are sharp!"

"Well, sharp!

The little girl replied confidently, and although she had eaten a lot of sweets, her teeth had always been good—what would be better for a little girl of this age?

Eating and playing, of course.

Every time Zhang Nan went to see Lily, he would first buy a lot of chocolates suitable for children, and she was not less talked about by Alice.

Eating chocolate grows early?

Actually, it's not a big problem: how many kids have chocolates, I don't see much of a problem, just don't eat it.

Now in the lounge, two people, one big and one small, are talking childish things to each other, and they don't pay attention to the people in front of them.

There are quite a few people who went to Botswana this time, not only Zhang Nan's core bodyguards are more than 20, but also 30 "security guards" drawn from the "United Forces" -- this will be Botswana and Zimbabwe, not South Africa!

South Africa is all in white areas, and the security is not bad, and this trip will also enter the tribal areas, the environment is much more complicated.

Not only that, but Thomas, who had unloaded his cargo on Safiradura, had already arrived in Botswana, and Hanson Bruce, the logistics chief of the "United Forces", was in Zimbabwe waiting for the big boss to inspect it.

Two huge mines, "Xingchen International Diamond Group" should unite local forces in accordance with international customs, although the mines have not yet started, but have hired a security company.

Which one?

Of course, it is a "joint force", and the core of the mine protection team is a safety contractor from the United States, and Huaxia's guys account for almost half.

At the same time, you have to increase the local employment rate, hire security personnel from the local tribes, and you can't fight, this African black buddy can take care of the home and make a show, at least he knows how to drive the lions away and deal with the insects in the African wilderness.

Locals are almost indispensable in almost any situation, unless it's no man's land, or it's artificially made into a no man's land.

As the plane prepares to take off, Alice, dressed in a purser uniform, appears in the lounge. Seeing Zhang Nan hugging Lily and saying extremely childish things, he smiled and said, "Lily, don't keep pestering your Uncle Ellen." ”

The little girl was upset, turned her head and said, "Mom, it's Uncle Allen who wants me to play with him." ”

The little man has the wisdom of a child, and the facts tell her: in any case, if there is trouble, then pushing the cause on the adults is the best solution.

"Don't make trouble, Lily and I are busy, how can we bother with you. ”

As soon as Zhang Nan said, the little girl immediately nodded: "Hmm!"

This is the standard royalist plus a fearless little princess, Alice has to laugh and shake her head and leave.

She was happy in her heart, and she wished that she could do this every day, so that the stupid woman would disturb one big and one small two to play games.

For more than an hour after the plane took off, Zhang Nan didn't have time to talk to the other people on the plane: Lily gave him her baby musical Barbie to play with, and drew pictures for her uncle to see.

Even when they went to Botswana together, Mr. La Buse Brown, who had something to say to the boss, saw the situation and did not plan to disturb it, so he went to the second half of the plane to rest first.

I woke up early in the morning, and he hadn't woken up yet.

Alice arrived at the airport before Zhang Nan, and Lily also got up early, played with Zhang Nan for more than an hour, watched the videotape of "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck" for more than half an hour, and after stuffing a lot of snacks into her mouth by the way, she fell asleep in Zhang Nan's arms as a matter of course.

Zhang Nan carried her to the bed in the bedroom, helped Little Sleeping Pig take off her sweater and trousers like she used to treat her daughter, and covered her with a quilt.

Feeling a little stunned, he looked back to see Alice looking at him in the doorway.

"You're spoiling her too much. ”

"If a girl wants to be rich, pet it. ”

When I got to the break room, I asked Alyosha to invite Brown, and I actually saw him just now as if he was looking for something for himself.

It's just that the plane still has to fly for more than ten hours, and there is enough time for the United Nations General Assembly.

It's about the progress of some of the diamonds and gemstones that Zhang Nan has designed and processed on Joshua's side, and Brown has also been involved in land surveys in Botswana and Zimbabwe.

The appraiser is talking about the situation in Botswana, and in particular De Beers' current situation in Botswana.

“...... As it stands, De Beers' Botswana subsidiary and the Botswana government's Diamond Trading Company each have a 50 per cent stake in diamond mining.

The way they cooperate is that one side produces resources, the other side mines and sells, and the revenue is shared.

Botswana does not fully control the autonomy of its own resource development, because De Beers still controls the supply and pricing power of the world diamond market to a large extent, often regulating diamond production and even hoarding according to market changes, seeking to maximize its own interests. ”

Zhang Nan knows some of these situations, because the current situation is that Zhang Nan already has land ownership and prospecting rights, and has 30 years of mining rights in the previous agreement.

However, the mining rights and the agreement signed by the tribe still need to be negotiated with the Botswana Ministry of Mines.

That Zhang Nan is the meat on the chopping board?

Don't worry, there are 8 major tribes in Botswana, and the three plots of land bought by Zhang Nan are all the territory of one of the big tribes, and the chiefs of that tribe get benefits.

Although the chief is not as big as the president, the current president of Botswana is also from this tribe: even if he becomes president, he can't turn his elbow out, and he has to take care of the interests of his own tribe, otherwise the chair will fall apart immediately!

The diamond mine is completely owned by the state, so the tribe must not rebel?

You must know that Botswana has only been a country for more than 20 years, and the clan elders and members are in charge of your country's vital interests!

It doesn't matter if foreigners have half or even more than half of the profits, because if you pick up a ready-made tribe, you can get rich quickly, and besides, the tribe itself has no mining technology, let alone a market.

If you ask the state for help...... Thank you, there are still 7 large tribes here, and on the issue of one-eighth and fifty-percent, Mr. Chief, who has studied in a church school, still knows which one is more calculated.

The territory and property of their own tribe are their own, and the foreign tribes want to divide them?

As soon as Mr. Chief roared, the thousands of armed warriors of his own tribe would not agree, let alone a dozen or so young farmers and herdsmen who could become berserk warriors at any time.

And for the soldiers and officers of the Botswana army, the words of their own tribal chiefs are even more effective than the president!

Why are there so many coups and wars in Africa?

Because the tribe is powerful!

Now De Beers is actually above the Botswana government on the diamond issue, as long as there is a government, tribes and "Star International" can accept and reasonable distribution, then the Botswana government does not need to be led by De Beers.
