Animal cruelty?

The guys of the mine protection team are not so idle, they will put down one after keeping one shot, and they will not throw it away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the Chinese cooking skills, and the Chinese technicians in the early personnel of the mine, this wild boar is very popular, and even made a "Western food fan": that is, some parts of the meat are discarded, because the thousands of square kilometers near the mine are a big wild boar nest at all, and the reproduction rate is fast.

There is a difference between the fact that northerners love pasta and that southerners eat rice as their staple food. But the hobby of pork is the same, and I won't get tired of it.

And here's what it's interesting to note is that even fresh, high-quality Australian beef isn't as popular in the mines as wild boar, not to mention the frozen colours.

Because it is now 1989, except for the plateau, the northern pastoral areas and the west, most of the eastern part of China, whether it is the north or the south, beef is not as popular as pork.

Because cattle are animal power and should not be raised, the common people have not had the habit of eating beef for many years. Moreover, even if the cattle are slaughtered, they are generally used as special supplies for military supplies, and there is a very small supply in the local area during the Spring Festival.

In the past few years, the price of pork was higher than that of beef, firstly, because pork can be boiled into lard, and beef is even considered a meat that cannot be put on the table in many places in the east.

The second is that I don't have the habit of eating beef, or I simply can't get used to it!

This may seem unbelievable in 20 years, but it is a fact now: even in 20 years, there are still many Chinese people over the age of forty or fifty in the eastern region who do not like beef.

It's not because it's expensive, or I don't like the taste of beef, and I think it's weird!

It's unbelievable, but it's a reality.

The mine protection team in Botswana is not as comfortable as their colleagues in Australia, because Africa is basically protozoa, hunting is okay, not too exaggerated, and you have to take care of the feelings of the tribesmen.

All killed, what are the tribesmen fighting?

Life is not as comfortable as Australia's porcelain, Africa is also a mess, and De Beers is eyeing the neighborhood.

It is not so bold to blatantly disrupt the other party, but it is also necessary to guard against it, and the actual situation inside the mine also needs to be kept secret - trade secrets, everything must be prepared.

......

The little ones catch up on sleep, wake up in less than two hours, and then become a super active!

There was no place on the whole plane that Lily couldn't go, and even the cockpit went in to see - she was such a little person in the plane, and everyone was kind to her.

However, Lily Greeney soon loses her freedom, is captured by Alice, and honestly plays a game of assembling trains on the floor of the break room.

The boss's set of electric trains is ready to pass the time on the plane for little Lily. It's not okay for children to watch cartoons all the time, even if they play boys' games, it's better than watching TV.

However, after eating and playing for a few hours, little Lily went to sleep again, and the more than 10-hour flight was not so easy.

Thanks to the Earth's rotation, the plane arrived at Gaborone International Airport, the capital of Botswana, about 10 kilometers southwest of the airport.

This is a very young African city that was built in 1964 thanks to the development of minerals, and it used to be a deserted jungle.

Because the city was formed in a short time, when I looked out of the porthole of the lounge just before landing, the area near the airport was almost a wasteland.

If it weren't for the fence, the African antelope would probably run back to the runway to make trouble, and if there was a lion, it would be even more lively.

When you get off the tarmac, the temperature is less than 30 degrees, and the runway of the entire international airport is long, but the terminal looks like an old-fashioned train station.

There are only a few small planes nearby, many of which are propeller-type, and there are not many international flights to this country.

Gaborone is a city with a strange geographical location, as the national capital, its city center is only about 10 kilometers away from the border with South Africa, and there is no strategic depth at all!

Not to mention the cannon, a 120-mm mortar with a longer range mounted on the South African side of the border can smash the shell into the capital of Botswana.

When he got off the plane, Zhang Nan said to Guan Xingquan on the side in his hometown dialect very maliciously: "If you build the airport to the north, are you afraid of shells and run faster?"

"The G5 howitzer has a range of 30 km, it's useless. ”

The South African military of the white regime is very powerful, and many of the munitions it has built are also world-class, such as their artillery.

Botswana puts the capital in such a place, I just hope that the next door will always be a good neighbor, otherwise when you quarrel, people will throw kitchen knives at your house!

Botswana's Ministry of Mines and Ministry of Tourism have officials to greet them, because the black buddies know that the capital of this American financial giant is several times the annual GDP of Botswana!

The visit of such a rich person is much more meaningful than that of the presidents of many small countries, because the benefits that Zhang Nan can bring are far higher than those of countries that are poorer than Botswana.

It feels very good, but it's a pity that it's a civilian identity, otherwise Zhang Nan estimates that it is enough to enjoy the treatment of the guard of honor and the salute.

Thomas was in the welcoming crowd, surrounded by a number of security personnel in Botswana uniforms.

Botswana officially speaks English, and communication is not a problem, just when Zhang Nan and Brown greeted each other, Zhang Nan's bodyguards actually surrounded this side.

Thanks to the simplicity of the airport, Guan Xingquan and Liu Wendong can clearly observe all the commanding heights nearby, and everything is normal.

This is Africa, and anything is possible, although the chances of De Beers having a nerve are slim.

The car prepared for Zhang Nan was an old-fashioned Rolls-Royce, and the bodyguards got on the Toyota Coaster minibus, escorted by police vehicles in front and behind.

The old car with the right-hand drive seat is very suitable for the left-hand driving rule here.

It was Zach who was driving, and Alyosha was in the passenger seat as always, but it was Brown sitting next to Zhang Nan.

Alice and Lily are not suitable to share a car with Zhang Nan right now, while Brown is still familiar with Botswana.

After driving five or six kilometers from the airport to the city, Brown pointed to a compound that resembled a three-story factory in front of him and said, "Boss, that's De Beers' headquarters in Botswana." ”

Zhang Nan saw that the two long "factories" over there echoed each other from afar, and knew that one was the De Beers Botswana Diamond Company building, and the other was the Botswana Diamond Trading Company building, and these two were sister companies at all.

Noticing the look on his boss's face, Brown continued: "De Beers currently owns two diamond mines in Botswana, and regularly hands over the rough diamonds to the Botswana Diamond Trading Company, which sorts, values them and then sells them.

Botswana people sort and value, but buyers can only be more than 100 global sightholders appointed by De Beers.

After the sightsee gets the rough diamond, it is sold or shipped to India and other countries for further processing, and the finished diamond jewelry finally enters the consumer market. ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, he said: "It's all loopholes, the actual control of the mine is in the hands of De Beers, even if there are supervisors, it's still useless." ”

Brown laughs: "This requires a tacit understanding of business. ”

Not to mention, this car is provided by Botswana, although it has been inspected before, but it is not 100% insured.

Business tacit understanding, every year the Botswana government has a satisfactory income, the diamonds are too small, it is impossible to see them all.

Occupied by a hotel called Regent, on the southern outskirts of the city, near a huge reservoir that provides the city's water supply during the dry season, and close to the National Museum of Botswana and not far from the University of Botswana.

The entire hotel was secured, and security was taken over by some of the "Joint Forces" who arrived early, with local police guarding the gates outside.

There are 40 rooms with kitchenettes, outdoor swimming pools, and beautiful gardens.

He was satisfied with the environment, but Zhang Nan still said: "After tomorrow's meeting, Brown, you and the negotiators are here to argue with them, and I will go to the mine as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, boss. ”

Zhang Nancai was too lazy to talk to the bureaucrats, and he didn't have the mind and necessity at all. After having the required courtesy, it's okay to put on this gesture, but people will look up to you.

On the third day, I flew again, three twin otters, and "Star International's" own plane, one of the best means of transportation in the African wilderness: the mine was 500 kilometers away.
