"What? You're going to Africa?"

In the courtyard of Feng Xiaochen's house, Du Xiaodi looked at his sister Du Xiaoyi, his eyes widened.

"It's not that I'm going, but Changfeng is going, so I have to apply to be a foreign correspondent. ”

Du Xiaoyi gnawed on the apple that her sister had peeled for her, and said happily. On the other side, Du Xiaoyi's newlywed husband Huang Changfeng was whispering to Feng Fei, who had just returned from Africa, and he didn't know what he was talking about.

Four years ago, when Feng Xiaochen was still on temporary duty in Yubei, Du Xiaoyi, a reporter from the "Pujiang Morning News", went to interview the revitalization of the old industrial base in Yubei, and happened to meet An Xiangxiu, the owner of a Korean supermarket in South Korea, who made Chinese employees kneel. When Ahn Sang-so asked the South Korean assistant he brought to attack Du Xiaoyi, Huang Changfeng, an active-duty soldier from the Airborne Forces, stepped forward and played a good show of heroes saving the United States.

For beating foreign guests, Du Xiaoyi and Huang Changfeng were taken to the Yubei Public Security Bureau for investigation. Later, under the mediation of Feng Xiaochen, the turmoil finally ended with the Korean supermarket admitting its mistake and apologizing, Du Xiaoyi and Huang Changfeng were also in danger, and sparks were sparked because of this incident. Last year, the relationship between the two finally came to fruition, considering that Du Xiaoyi was already a 30-year-old young woman, Du Xiaodi was going to muttered in her ear if she was fine, asking her to hurry up and have a child, and stop dragging herself into an elderly mother. But who would have thought that the matter of having a child was not settled, and this little couple was going to Africa.

"Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with my brother-in-law. Du Xiaoyi said.

"What's wrong with him?" Du Xiaodi asked.

Du Xiaoyi said: "Wasn't the matter of in-depth cooperation between China and Africa first proposed by my brother-in-law? All units have assigned tasks and asked for the transfer of competent personnel to work in Africa. Changfeng also had a quota for their troops, and Changfeng was the first to sign up and asked to be sent to the country with the most difficult conditions. As soon as I saw that he had gone to Africa, I couldn't be a cowherd and weaver girl with him, so I applied for a position as a foreign correspondent and went to work in Africa. Sister, don't you know, there are dozens of people in our newspaper who are vying for this position, and I grabbed this position because of Changfeng. ”

"But, ...... over there," Du Xiaodi didn't know what to say.

Unlike when Feng Fei stayed in Africa ten years ago, today's Chinese people know a lot about Africa. Du Xiaodi himself has been to Africa twice, once to attend an academic conference, and the other to be commissioned by a company to help solve a welding technology problem on a construction site. With such an experience, coupled with the introduction of Feng Fei and Cao Jingmin, Du Xiaodi knew that Africa was not as wild as everyone imagined in the past, at least Feng Fei and his family were very comfortable there, and Cao Jingmin also became a multimillionaire by growing vegetables.

However, to say that it is comfortable to stay is compared to what I imagined. When compared to the living conditions at home, Africa is indeed a difficult place. The climate, food, economic development, law and order, and all kinds of epidemics that have never been heard of before all make people feel scared. When countries mobilize cadres to Africa, they often have to come with some preferential policies, such as additional allowances, as well as promises of rewards and promotions. Even so, there are still very few people who ask to work in Africa from the bottom of their hearts, and most of them reluctantly accept this arrangement because of pressure from their employers or personal future considerations.

The situation of Huang Changfeng and Du Xiaoyi, Du Xiaodi knows a little bit. This little couple can also be described as "not a family, not a family", both of them have some idealism and want to make contributions, otherwise they would not join forces to fight with An Xiangxiu and his gang. If others apply to go to Africa in order to get a promotion after they come back, this little couple is purely to have a heartbeat.

With Du Xiaodi's original intention, he wanted to dissuade his sister and brother-in-law from giving up this idea, but Du Xiaoyi sealed her mouth at the beginning, Du Xiaoyi said that this matter was brought up by Feng Xiaochen, so what did Du Xiaodi say?

When he was in distress, the sound of a car parking was heard outside the door, and then the courtyard door was pushed open. Feng Xiaochen took the lead in the front, followed by two people, both carrying large bags of things in their hands. One of them was known to Du Xiaodi in advance, it was her younger brother Du Xiaoyuan, Feng Xiaochen drove to the train station to pick him up just now. The other one made Du Xiaodi feel quite surprised, this person was actually Wang Ruidong, the brother-in-law of Ruan Fugen, the boss of Quanfu Machinery Company.

"Hey, Mr. Wang, how did you meet Xiaochen?"

Du Xiaodi hurriedly got up to greet Wang Ruidong, and when he passed by Du Xiaoyuan, Du Xiaoyuan shouted weakly at her sister, but she only gave Du Xiaoyuan a roll of the eyes, Du Xiaoyuan quickly lowered his eyebrows and turned sideways to dodge, and found a seat next to Du Xiaoyi and sat down.

Wang Ruidong didn't know what was going on between Du Xiaodi and Du Xiaoyuan, and when he saw Du Xiaodi coming up, he quickly put down his things, bowed slightly to Du Xiaodi, and said, "Professor Du, I'm sorry." Isn't it almost the Chinese New Year, my brother-in-law asked me to send some seafood to the leaders of the capital. I originally called Mr. Feng and asked for the address of your home, and then I called a car to send it over. As a result, Mr. Feng said that he happened to be on the way, so he drove me up. ”

Feng Xiaochen smiled and pointed to the things that Wang Ruidong had just put on the ground and the things that Du Xiaoyuan was carrying just now, and said, "These are all sent by Boss Ruan, dried scallops, squid, hairtail, and seaweed, which are enough for us to eat for a year." ”

"There are so many things, how can we be embarrassed to accept them!" Du Xiaodi said uneasily.

"Just take it, I'll bring some to Director Luo and Minister Meng another day. Feng Xiaochen said disappreciatively.

After all these years of tempering, Wang Ruidong is no longer the second ancestor who is ignorant of the world in the past, hearing Feng Xiaochen's words, he hurriedly said: "Mr. Feng, what leaders do you want to send, I will ask my brother-in-law to prepare again, and I will send someone to the capital tomorrow." ”

Feng Xiaochen patted Wang Ruidong on the shoulder with a smile and said, "That's free, I'll take what Boss Ruan gave me, and go back and give some to a few leaders." If you send it to them, they won't accept it. ”

Wang Ruidong said a little stupidly: "Well, Mr. Feng, I didn't mean that we sent them to a few leaders, I meant that we sent them to the leaders, and we would help you prepare." ”

"No, in fact, even if I accept these things from you, I am already considered a bribe. I risked being investigated by the discipline inspection and accepted Boss Ruan's wishes. Feng Xiaochen said half-jokingly while beckoning Wang Ruidong to sit down.

These things sent by Wang Ruidong are worth thousands of yuan by a simple visual inspection, and it is indeed suspected of violating discipline to accept such gifts from other officials. However, Feng Xiaochen dared to accept it, because the discipline inspection had long been too lazy to take care of his affairs, and with Feng Xiaochen's net worth, businessmen took thousands of yuan of aquatic products to bribe, isn't this a joke? Of course, the scope of Feng Xiaochen's gifts is limited to a few very good friends, such as Ruan Fugen, Bao Chengming, and Ning Mo, and he will not accept gifts from other businessmen, and this involves a problem of atmosphere. Last year, Ruan Fugen's son was admitted to university, and Feng Xiaochen gave him the latest Compaq computer, worth more than 20,000 yuan, which is considered to have returned all the seafood that Ruan Fugen has given him over the years.

Wang Ruidong knew Feng Xiaochen's temper, so he no longer dwelled on this issue. He took the tea handed over by Du Xiaodi, took two sips, and said a few more gossips to Feng Xiaochen, and then made a look of getting up and said, "Mr. Feng, Professor Du, you still have guests here, or I will stay soon." My brother-in-law may also come to the capital in a few days, and then I will find a better hotel and invite you two to sit down. ”

"Don't be busy. Feng Xiaochen stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "It's okay, Ruidong, there are no outsiders here." Xiaoyuan, you already knew each other just now, this is Xiaodi's sister, my brother-in-law over there, and it is my second uncle who is talking to my brother-in-law. By the way, my second uncle just came back from Africa. He's been in Africa for more than a decade, and you don't want to talk to him?"

"Really?" Wang Ruidong's eyes lit up, and his gaze at Feng Fei was a little different.

Feng Xiaochen turned his head to Feng Fei and shouted, "Second uncle, Changfeng, you two come over and talk." I have a friend here who is preparing to go to Africa recently, and he really wants to learn from you, second uncle. ”

Hearing Feng Xiaochen say this, Wang Ruidong quickly stood up, bowed to Feng Fei and said, "Second Uncle Feng, my name is Wang Ruidong, and my family is doing a small business in Haidong. I am now preparing to go to Africa for development, and I have a lot of questions I would like to ask you, second uncle. ”

When Feng Fei heard this, he smiled at Huang Changfeng, and the two of them walked over together. Coming to everyone, Feng Fei stretched out his hand to Wang Ruidong, and Wang Ruidong followed up and shook hands with Feng Fei. Feng Fei said: "Don't dare to ask for advice, let's communicate together." Come, Xiao Wang, let's sit down and talk. ”

Feng Xiaochen gave up his seat to Feng Fei, Feng Fei sat down, and Wang Ruidong also sat down. Feng Fei asked with a smile: "Xiao Wang, which country in Africa do you plan to go to, and how do you plan to develop?"

"This ...... I haven't thought about it yet......"

Wang Ruidong didn't know it, but he was a little timid. The uncle in front of him is wearing a newly bought down jacket, which is not a good brand, and it must not be expensive. He looked mediocre, just like his neighbor Lao Wang. But just now, between his gestures, he revealed a domineering spirit, which is the temperament that can only be found after at least seven or eight years of being a warlord. Wang Ruidong, such a second ancestor, how could he not feel the pressure of the mountain in front of him.
