(Thanks to my friend Qin Shi Mingyue and hardy monthly ticket encouragement)

Originally, Lao Liu didn't care about the award, and even felt that this thing was a burden before. will put a shackle on you, and make you have to be a good person in everything you say. And in this world? At present, it seems that good people suffer.

It's just that this is what he thought when he first learned the news, and today is the day of the award, and he feels a little excited.

The biggest honor in this life seems to be the certificate of merit for the three good students he won in the third grade of elementary school, right? As for the company's outstanding employee award after working later, it is a bit of a feeling of following the crowd.

This is indeed a great honor, and the old Liu family is all dressed up to travel. Xiao Miaomiao wore princess dresses, and a flower was tied to the head of Brother Pingtou and the little monkey baby.

Although the presidential palace is very special, after Lao Liu's application, Brother Pingtou and the little monkey baby can still follow in and go around. In fact, Miao Miao wanted to take Baker or Simba, which was somewhat excessive.

Although Lao Liu's status in Kenya is also okay, the presidential palace has not reached the point of coming and going at will. Chen Cheng had come here twice before, and Lao Liu was also here for the first time.

"Harvey, won't it be tedious?" After seeing Harvey, Lao Liu hurriedly asked.

"No, it's just the normal process of awarding medals. But today Mr. President will talk to you alone for about half an hour, which is very rare. Harvey said.

"Didn't you say at the beginning that you want to talk alone?" Lao Liu frowned.

"Maybe it's also to know what you're planning for that land in the future, and after I reported the situation, a lot of people are very concerned. Harvey said.

Lao Liu nodded, "Then I'll go over now?"

Harvey was happy, "It's the first time I've seen you so nervous, and I've told you that I'm going to talk alone." ”

Lao Liu glared at him, "I know that gloating, isn't it the first time I've met a serious national leader? ”

After finishing speaking, Lao Liu walked to the big room in front of him under the guidance of the staff.

"Harvey, is this a temporary addition?" Chen Cheng asked curiously.

Harvey nodded, "Because you have done a great job, otherwise you would not have made an exception this time to award the medal now, and with this medal and the status of honorary citizen, your work will be more convenient in the future." ”

"Haha, it would be nice to give us more incentives in terms of taxes, not just pay lip service. Chen Cheng said with a smile.

Harvey shook his head, "You and Simon are really good brothers, sometimes it's like you're talking to him." You are in business, and at this point you know better what is best for you. ”

"But I'm curious, Simon can be very contagious at times. Do you think that when he is chatting with the president, will he invite the president to have time to visit his farm in the future?"

"Harvey, this one could really be there. Chen Cheng said with a wry smile.

"My third brother, as long as you have the right mind for him, he really doesn't treat you as an outsider. Just like you now, although you have a high status in Kenya, he will not look at you as an official. ”

"It's up to him to talk to the president, as long as the president doesn't let him invest more, or give him any more tasks that can't be accomplished, I think their conversation will have a good outcome." ”

"At least our company here in Kenya is not just here to make money, but also to really do things. Let's say that if so many people were to relocate and build those public facilities, they would need at least $40 million or more. ”

"This is only a conservative estimate for us, because the number of people has not yet been counted and the scope of the plan has not been determined. If it is really confirmed, the transformation of that living area can easily throw 100 million dollars into it. ”

"Actually, I'm a little worried now, I'm afraid to talk to him and have fun. When the time comes, he won't think much about it and give you promises indiscriminately. At that time, the money needed to be spent was not half a star. ”

Harvey thought about it carefully, and then followed suit, judging from his relationship with Liu Wenrui, it was really like this.

Let's just say that Wilma is now also the deputy minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, but because of his previous way of doing things, he has not been recognized, so this relationship has not been very close. Let's just say that Rudy is much closer to him than Wilma, the former director and current minister.

And since it is ripe, no matter which time Liu Wenrui's farm has been touched, it is all enthusiasm. Now he is very much looking forward to seeing what kind of result Liu Wenrui's conversation with the president will have.

It's just that it's a private meeting, no one else, and no news coverage. Even if Kenya's national strength is not very strong, the president is still the president.

Wait, wait, wait, and this is an unexpected situation. The original plan was for them to talk for half an hour, and by 10:30 a.m.

But now it's 10:40, and Liu Wenrui and the president are still locked in the room chatting.

Fortunately, the people who came here today are all reporters with relatively good relationships, otherwise I am afraid that they would have to report all over the sky now. It was 10:45 a.m. that Liu Wenrui and the president walked out of the office together.

The expressions on the faces of the two were very good, but Chen Cheng noticed that Lao Liu's spirit seemed to be very excited.

The award ceremony is very simple, the host mutters about Lao Liu's great achievements, and then invites him to come up. Mr. President, he hung the medal around his neck and took a group photo together. Then take the honorary citizenship document signed by Mr. President himself, and then take a group photo, and that's it.

Mr. President went back to work, and Lao Liu had to stay here to be interviewed by reporters and express some words of thanks if he wanted to.

"Simon, tell me quickly, what did you talk about with the president, and why did it take so long?" asked Harvey on the way to the barbecue restaurant.

"If I say that I have been fooled by your president, do you believe it?" asked Liu Wenrui with a smile.

"What's the lame?" Harvey repeated.

Even if you know some Chinese, I don't know what the allusion is to this flickering lame.

"Third child, you have agreed to a lot of requests?" Chen Cheng frowned.

"I guess I was willingly fooled. Lao Liu said with a smile.

"Mr. President gave me full development rights, and we've been discussing this all the time. It may cost more money here in the future, so we have to be prepared. ”

After finishing speaking, Liu Wenrui took out the authorization document signed by the president from his pocket.

Harvey felt a little incredible, because this was equivalent to Liu Wenrui having complete autonomy in that land.

Even if a lot of land is converted to private ownership, there are conditions attached to it that need to be used for a specific purpose. What is agricultural is agricultural, and what is industrial is industrial. Unless it is those who acquired the land a long time ago, they will have complete autonomy to do whatever they want.

This full development right is similar to that one, which is an administrative license specially issued by the president. From today on, Liu Wenrui is really doing whatever he wants in this land.

Including the selection of government managers, the official has no right to interfere, and Liu Wenrui appoints whoever he appoints. This is something that has never been done in Kenya before.

"So why are you surprised? You didn't know beforehand? I don't believe it. Liu Wenrui looked at him and said.

Harvey shook his head helplessly, "I knew that I would give you some encouraging policies, but I didn't expect it to be so thorough." It seems that I have to continue to work hard, and I don't even know such news. ”

After all, your current work direction has little to do with people's livelihood. Liu Wenrui said with a smile.

"There should also be controversy, and it was only determined today. And it also depends on what my plans on the land over there will be in the future before deciding whether to give me this right. ”

"Now my mind has changed and I want to invest more in this land. It is necessary to make it a livable city, and in the future, it is necessary to attract foreign investment. It's kind of dual management, but I have some privileges. ”

"It seems to have given me a lot of power, and the investment in those basic projects is not a small amount of money. Seriously, although I have some feelings of excitement now, I also have some regrets. ”

"It's not a good job, and although it makes money, it may take decades to earn it. In the early stage, it was to throw money into it, a city, where it is so easy to build. ”

"Nairobi has a high level of construction, but because of the slums. We won't be there, it's going to be a whole new city. There are a lot of issues that need to be discussed, such as taxation and other things. ”

Chen Cheng shook his head helplessly, "Good guy, you have to be stuck here for more than ten years at this time." ”

"yes, we're putting down roots here anyway, let's take our time. Liu Wenrui said with a smile.

"It's also an expansion on the basis of our original, but the management talent in this area has to be searched for, which is different from doing business. Masika alone can't be the mayor, but not the mayor. ”

"It's easy to say, where is it so simple to expand a little bit? It used to be just a bungalow. Now, whether it's going to be a tall building or a skyscraper? Chen Cheng said angrily.

"That's why I said I was willingly fooled, a city, if I really played well, how much profit could I create in the future? Lao Liu said seriously.

Chen Chengcheng felt that his head was big, who would have thought that such a simple thing as awarding a medal would be given such a big job by Liu Wenrui.
