Chapter 377: Patrice's Troubles (4/16)

The roar of helicopters shattered the silence of the Congo River, a river second only to the Amazon River known for its rapids, waterfalls and rapids, but unfortunately due to economic, traffic, safety and other factors, not many tourists can visit here, but it also protects the integrity of the local ecology.

"The air here is so fresh!" Xia Xiao got off the helicopter, and breathed greedily into the moist air by the waterfall because of the water vapor, no unpleasant smell of oil smoke, no PM2.5, everything looked so good.

"I'd rather them suffer from the pollution of industry than live in poverty in a beautiful natural environment!" Patrice shrugged, looking at the dilapidated shack in the distance.

Looking at his old friend's frowning brows, Lu Qiujian knew that he was not happy after returning to China, which is also understandable, returning from the most developed country in the world to the backward motherland, it is inevitable to compare the two places, but he can't see the hope of the rapid development of his motherland, but anyone who has some pursuits will feel troubled.

"Nothing takes time, doesn't it?" Lu Qiujian comforted, he understood Patrice's current mood, the outstanding people of each nation always hope that their nation can stand tall in the world, but after all, there are only a few, which not only requires too much effort, but also needs the right opportunities, motivated people, and so on.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I just know you!" Patrice scratched his head embarrassedly, his good buddy brought his girlfriend here to play and relax, not to listen to his troubles, he really shouldn't spoil the good mood of the two, while speaking, Patrice's attaché had already set up tents and set up barbecue racks, so he hurriedly beckoned Lu Qiujian and the two, "Come on, come and taste the unique food of the African continent!"

Judging from the food prepared, Patrice is very attentive, not only the local cassava steamed buns, peanut bread, ant sauce, monkey meat specialties. There are also regular foods such as rice, steak, and lamb skewers, so you can find something to suit your taste no matter what.

"Aha, I'm also good at this!" Lu Qiujian suddenly seemed to think of something, picked up a few skewers of bird meat and planned to roast them on the shelf.

"This can't work! you have to shoot it down yourself!" Patrice Lotte's personality made him recover quickly, got up and looked around, beckoned an attaché, took off the military crossbow he was carrying and handed it to Lu Qiujian, he didn't ask Lu Qiujian if he would use this guy, because in his opinion, this old classmate is omnipotent!

"You wait here, I'll come when I go!" Lu Qiujian said to Xia Xiao with a smile, and then disappeared into the jungle in the direction pointed by Patrice.

It didn't take long. The treetops in the distance trembled, and the sound of arrows leaving the strings could be faintly heard, and after a while, Kung Fu Lu Qiujian came back with his loot.

Boiling water, shedding, disemboweling, and soon a fat bird is placed on the oven, smeared with the ingredients, and turned twice from time to time, so that every part of the bird meat can evenly absorb the heat and the aroma of the ingredients.

A few minutes later, Lu Qiujian handed a roasted tender yellow bird to Xia Xiao, "I personally called this bird for you." ”

Xia Xiao took the roast bird meat, his eyes flickering. I don't know what Lu Qiujian's move represents, whether he should eat it or do something else.

"Haha, according to our Congolese customs, if a man has a crush on a woman. Then he gave her a roast bird as a courtship!" Patrice slowed down and said to Xia Xiao in English, "If you are going to accept his courtship." So long to give back a corn. ”

It's really very romantic! Xia Xiao immediately looked left and right looking for corn, but fortunately, Patrice was well prepared, and the corn-potatoes were placed not far away.

Lu Qiujian took the corn and put it on the shelf and roasted it. Well, this must be his own! After nibbling on the corn, he picked up beef, mutton, potatoes and other ingredients and roasted them.

"Lu, I dare say that even if you don't go to graduate school or play basketball, if you become a chef, you will become a world-class standard!" said Patrice patting his stomach contentedly after a full meal.

"If I can't find a job after returning to China, I will consider your suggestion to open a barbecue restaurant! By the way, what do you think of the name Barbecue Galaxy as the name of the restaurant?"

"Well, that's a very special name, but with your level, I'm not surprised that one day I'll open a barbecue restaurant all over the galaxy!" Patrice, of course, didn't understand the implication of the name, so he had to reply.

After the meal, Xia Xiao was a little tired, so he went back to the tent to rest for a while, while Lu Qiujian and Patrice sat on the boulder and looked at the waterfall in the distance, chatting about each other's recent situation while drinking.

"You know, I was very happy when your Huaguo factory was put into construction in Congo, I thought he could train reliable workers for Congo and drive the development of Congo! But I found out that I was wrong!" Patrice said helplessly, "The management of Huaguo always complains to me, saying that the workers here will disappear as soon as they get their wages, and they will come back when the wages are spent; it has been more than a year since the factory was put into construction, and the local workers can still only do the simplest jobs!"

"It is true that the Chinese managers are much more generous than the Europeans, and they are happy to teach the local workers, but they do not want to learn at all! They always complain that the Chinese workers are paid more than them! But what is the gain if they do not pay?" Patrice's eyes were full of confusion.

"It's rare for a nation's character to change!" Lu Qiujian knows that Africa's abundant products allow the locals to harvest food without too hard farming, and how many people will still have the fighting spirit after thousands of years? "Only education can change everything!"

"Yes, I hope that our next generation will not live a life as ignorant as their parents. Patrice talked about his dreams, and when he returned to China, he not only opened a school, but even went to teach them himself.

"However, the current international situation is becoming more and more stable! It is not so easy for the Congo to achieve rapid development!" Finally, he lamented; indeed, this is not the era just after the end of World War II, and there will always be a lot of interference in the development of small countries, especially in Africa.

"As long as you work hard, there will always be a chance!" Lu Qiujian's eyes flashed with inexplicable brilliance, and he said as if prophecy, "Maybe the international situation will change greatly in the near future!" )
