Chapter 52: The President of the Iron Country's Flowing Water (Recommended Subscription)

(Read 10,000 volumes.) (This presidency is all real!)

Because the presidential election was going on here, Jia Lei and his family could only stay here for the time being, and their friends arranged Jia Lei and them in a private hotel in the city.

"Recently, there has been chaos in the streets, and people from all parties have gathered in the capital to participate in the general election, and the only two hotels in Dushanbe are full, and now you can only be wronged to stay in this small hotel. Said the secretary of the former president.

"It's okay! Anyway, your hotel here is not much higher than this small hotel, which is crowded and lively, but it is much better than those hotels in the city with complex people and strange atmosphere. Jia Lei looked at the bustling crowd in the hotel with satisfaction and said.

"Hey, those people in the hotel are really not easy to mess with, and since the United Nations and the representatives of various countries have already checked into the hotel, it will be very troublesome if you go there. By the way, there is a total curfew on the streets at night, so don't you go out at night?" the confidant instructed before leaving.

"Okay, I remember! Say hello to Mr. Nabiev, and I wish him victory in the presidential election. Jia Lei said.

"Thank you for your blessings, and with the help of the United Nations and my friends, I am confident that Chief Nabiev will win the election. Nabiev's henchman said confidently.

"Jia Lei, do you say that his boss can really win the presidential election?" As soon as the talent left, Mo Bei immediately asked.

"Who knows? But with the United Nations as a backer, Nabiev has a big chance of winning. Anyway, this country is so poor, whoever becomes president is short of money, I don't believe that I will use money to smash it, and I won't be able to make a statement. Jia Lei said confidently.

"So what are we doing now?" asked Xiang Xi, carrying his luggage.

"Let's go back to our room first, I'm going to call my uncle and ask what the hell is going on. Obviously, he told me when I came out, he knew the president here, why didn't he inform me of such a big thing as the change of president?" Jia Lei said with a frown.

"Okay!" the others nodded.

"Uncle, I'm in Tajikistan now, and the president here has changed, do you know?" asked Jia Lei on the phone.

"I know about this, there have been four presidents there since November 31 last year, and the change of president is not a big deal for Tajikistan. Utars said.

"I heard this from passers-by, but I can't imagine how four presidents will be replaced in less than a year. Is everybody the president of the first quarter? They are not the messengers of the four seasons. Jia Lei said in disbelief.

"Huh...... The Four Seasons Emissary, I like this metaphor, but their time as president is not as even as the four seasons, the first president Cajal was from November 30, 1990 to August 31, 1991, and he served for nine months alone. Utars said.

"What? Wouldn't the remaining three people each be president for less than a month?" Jia Lei stood up in surprise when he heard this and asked.

The second acting president, Aslonov, served from August 31, 1991 to September 23, 1991, and his term was the second longest of the three, with 23 days. Utars said.

"The 23-day term is the second longest, so how many days are the longest and shortest terms?" Jia Lei asked with a smile when he heard this.

"The shortest term was the third president, Nabiyev, who served from September 23, 1991 to October 6, 1991, and the longest term was the current acting president, Iskandarov, who was re-elected from October 6, 1991, and has been in office for more than a month. "Uttars said,

"Wait, I heard me right, the friend you introduced to me seems to be the confidant of the third president, Nabiev, who is said to have been forced to step down, has only been president for 14 days, and he hasn't even been here for half a month! You want me to come to him now, aren't you cheating on me?" Jia Lei asked in shock.

"I really don't blame me for this, he was in power when you left, so the information I gave you is his contact information. I just didn't expect that he, the president, would be replaced so quickly......" Utars also said with a headache.

"Then he was forced to resign, why didn't you tell me in advance? I knew that there was no one to answer here and it was such a mess, I definitely wouldn't have come. Jia Lei said.

"The reason I didn't tell you was just because I didn't think you were going there. After all, my secretary's first instinct when he got there was to go back to London, which was poor, ruined, and not beneficial, and I thought you wouldn't go. I thought you would be targeting the countries of Eastern Europe, not this small one. Utars said.

"I know how much I have to know, and those big countries with money are simply not something I can influence. With your name and my own financial resources, I can only deal with this kind of poor and small country that can't even afford to eat. Jia Lei said.

"Jia Lei, do you know what I've always admired about you the most?" asked Utars suddenly.

"What is it?" Jia Lei asked curiously.

"With self-knowledge, we will always choose the most confident thing to do, rather than choosing the most beneficial thing to do. Wu Tatars appreciated Jia Lei and said.

"I'm cowardly, I'm afraid of losing money. Jia Lei said.

"You are not too bold, you dare to go to such a chaotic place in the five Central Asian countries! Where are you bold? Utarth said with a smile.

"Isn't there no war here? If there was a war, I wouldn't dare to come. Jia Lei said.

Jia Lei is also a reborn person, Jia Lei still knows a little about the civil war in Tajikistan that has lasted for eight years, this world-renowned war only began to be fought in 92, and now this period of time is still a safe period.

****

After communicating with Utars, Jia Lei decided to stay and wait for the election results with peace of mind, after all, Nabiev, who was forced to resign, was scheming, and immediately ran to the United Nations and the Soviet big brother E Ross for help.

Now he is making a comeback with the support of the United Nations and country E, with the troops and representatives of various countries!

"Jia Lei should have dinner, shall we go down?" Luo Nan walked over and asked.

"Okay! I'll do it. Jia Lei put down the pen and notebook in his hand, put on his clothes and went to the restaurant downstairs with the others to eat.

"You may not be used to the food here, so let's bring some sausages and canned food and go down. Jia Lei reminded.

"Okay. After Chen Dong finished speaking, he took a box of canned luncheon meat and a German sausage from his bag.

"I don't know what the staple food here is, I've been throwing up eating bread lately. Xiang Xi muttered.

"I seem to smell the rice?" Jia Lei snorted and suddenly said excitedly.

"What did you say, is there rice here?" the eyes of the others immediately lit up when they heard this.

"Yes! There must be!" Jia Lei sniffled, followed the fragrance, and soon came to the restaurant.

"Oh my God! There's really rice here! It's still delicious pilaf. Jia Lei looked at the table in the restaurant, full of all kinds of pilaf, and said excitedly.

"What do you want to eat?" asked the hostess.

"Give each of us a pilaf!" Jia Lei hurriedly said.

"Okay, do you need some naan and mutton soup?" asked the hostess.

"Don't want naan, let's give each of us a bowl of mutton soup." By the way, you asked someone to cut the sausages and canned luncheon meat for us. Jia Lei said, Mo Bei hurriedly handed over the sausages and canned food in his hand.

"I'm sorry, I can't take it!" said the proprietress shaking her head.

"Why?" asked Jia Lei puzzled.

"In our country, it is very rude to hand over things, especially food, with our left hand, and we never accept food from someone with their left hand. The hostess explained.

"Oh, I see. Mo Bei hurriedly transferred everything to his right hand and handed it over.

"I still can't take it!As a ***, we refuse any pork products. The proprietress said.

"Forget it, don't bother people, let's take our things back to the room!" Jia Lei said helplessly.

"Okay, when do you want to eat at night, I'll use a fruit knife to cut it for you. Mo Bei nodded and said.

Because of Jia Lei's wealth, their dinner was extraordinarily rich, with tempting pilaf filled with fresh mutton, carrots, onions, clear oil, mutton fat and rice, and a delicious lamb soup made with lamb, which is the best staple food in the region.

The dishes on the table are even more colorful, making people look extra appetizing?

Assorted assorted platters, finger lamb, roast lamb shank, grilled cabbage, barbecued meat, chestnut chicken, amber peach kernels, beef curry, meatballs and other traditional local delicacies are filled with a large table.

"This cooked pilaf looks oily and shiny, and it smells so good, it must taste good. Jia Lei said and was about to start eating.

Then he had a problem!

"How can we eat without chopsticks?" asked Chen Dong tangledly.

"It's pilaf, don't you see other people eating it with their hands? Mo Bei said.

"But this meal is full of oil, grab it with your hands......" Chen Dong continued to hesitate, he couldn't live or die.

"Look at it, it's like I eat like this!" Jia Lei tentatively pinched a little pilaf with his fingers, put it in his mouth and chewed it.

"It tastes so good, I thought it would be greasy, but the carrots and green onions in it pushed down the greasyness, and it tasted like sausage fried rice. Jia Lei said.

"I only eat this little at a time, when will I be able to finish a plate of rice?" Xiang Xi asked hesitantly.

"Then you are like a foreigner next to you, you can't just grab it with your hands. Mo Bei pointed to the other guests in the restaurant who were eating pilaf and said.

"No, I can't do it!" Xiang Xi immediately shook his head and said.

"Jia Lei, what do you say?" asked Mo Bei.

"Forget it! I can't do it if I catch it like that, it really doesn't look good. I'll use a spoon instead!" Jia Lei said, taking out the spoon in the soup bowl and starting to eat with the spoon.

Fortunately, there were a lot of Russians here before, so a set of Western-style knives and forks in the restaurant was given to Jia Lei.

This saved Jia Lei, and they could only watch the embarrassing situation of not being able to eat!

"It's delicious! I haven't eaten rice in a long time, it's delicious!" Jia Lei said as he gulped down pilaf.

"Jia Lei, don't eat too fast and get tired, do you want to drink orange juice or lemon tea to slow down?" Luo Nan pushed Jia Lei over and said.

"Just in time! I'm choking. Jia Lei picked up the glass and drank half a glass of juice in one gulp.

"Hiccup!" Jia Lei and Chen Dong hiccuped at the same time, but the other party hiccuped.

"This place in Tajikistan is quite strange, doesn't it say that *** countries are not allowed to drink?" asked Luo Nan.

"There used to be a lot of old hairy people here, and there must be wine where they are, and this country has been ruled by the Russians for decades, how can it still ban alcohol!" Jia Lei said clearly.

This sumptuous dinner made Jia Lei and his family eat, and after the meal, they also ate cantaloupe, grapes, apples, pears, watermelons and other after-dinner fruits.

"Hiccup——! Hiccup ——! kill me, didn't you say that the country is very poor, I think they eat very well. Don't you look like a poor man at all?" Mo Bei asked.

"It's not good at all, you see that we have the rest of the meal, and there are several children staring at it. Jia Lei pointed to the children standing at the door, staring at them tightly.

"It's so pitiful to see them so thin! We can't eat these things, so we might as well give them them." Chen Dong said.

"Do you want to eat? Jia Lei waved at the children and said in Russian.

Several children glanced nervously at the hostess of the hotel, and the other party nodded helplessly, and then the group of children rushed in with cheers.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly! Don't choke. Jia Lei looked at the gobbling children and said.

"Hey...... They're hungry too, that's why they're in such a hurry, so I'll pour them some water. The proprietress said distressedly.

"I see that they are dressed well, how can they be so hungry?" asked Jia Lei curiously.

"As you know, our land here is not suitable for growing food, and most of the food used to be aided by the Soviets. Without this food aid, we would not be as good as we were during World War II, at least we still had bread to eat. We can't even afford bread now!, I don't know when it will be the end of these days?" said the proprietress with a sigh.

Jia Lei was silent when he heard this......

As far as he knows, Tajikistan lived on international humanitarian aid until 2017, and its gross national product is only more than $200 million, but the combined value of food, medicine and various supplies donated to them by more than two dozen countries is more than their national gross domestic product.

Without humanitarian aid, they will be unable to make ends meet.

"Does the Russians have any other impact besides food after they leave?" Jia Lei asked, the topic above was too heavy, and he decided to change the question.

After the news of independence came, everyone felt that they had been liberated and that they would be able to live a better life in the future! But after independence, those religious elements and people above began to be xenophobic and unfriendly to the people of country E, and the Orthodox Church also began to be excluded, so many Russians withdrew. The proprietress said.

"Even if the Russians are withdrawn, you shouldn't live like this?" Jia Lei asked.

"All the Russians are gone, the technologically savvy are gone, the high-level intellectuals are gone, and even the repairmen are gone! In the past, in those particularly remote and backward places, the locals had to find Russian "experts" to change the lamp. Now these people are gone, except for the capital that can maintain the previous standard of living and order, other places have begun to be in chaos. The proprietress said with a sigh.
