CHAPTER XXVI

"Aoyama, what do you think of the beautiful woman on the right?" asked Igarashi, a colleague in the bar, to Aoyama. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although I don't know Igarashi's specific intentions, Aoyama still followed his direction and took a closer look at the beauty who was dancing on the field, I have to say that Igarashi's vision is still good, this beauty is tall and plump, with delicate skin and beautiful appearance, but there is one thing that makes Aoyama a little puzzled, so he asked: "It's very beautiful, but it looks a bit like Southeast Asia." ”

Igarashi nodded and replied, "That's right, her name is Staella, and she is from the Philippines where you are about to go." Then, in a shocking voice, he said, "I find that I have fallen in love with her!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you're not serious, are you?" Aoyama asked in surprise.

"Seriously, I want to marry her, and I've proposed to her, and she agreed. Igarashi said without saying a word.

Seeing Igarashi's serious look, Aoyama felt that it was not good to say anything, so he could only bless: "Well, okay then, you are divorced anyway, no matter what kind of life you choose, it is your freedom." ”

"But there's one thing I want you to help me with. Igarashi suddenly said with some embarrassment.

"Oh, what's the matter?" asked Aoyama curiously.

Igarashi explained, "That's right, Staella's tourist passport is about to expire, so she has to go back to China once, and she can't come to Japan to marry me until she has completed the formalities, so I want to help me take care of her when you get to the Philippines, and by the way, find out about the specific situation in her family." ”

"Oh, that's no problem. Aoyama agreed.

Hearing Aoyama say this, Igarashi said gratefully, "Really, thank you so much, so let's have a meal after her performance is over, and I'll introduce you to each other." ”

At the end of the performance, a few people came to a hot pot restaurant, but before they could officially take their seats, Aoyama asked Igarashi in a low voice, "Well, does she speak Japanese?"

Igarashi nodded and replied, "Well, it will be a little, but she's only been in Japan for six months, so this level is okay." ”

"Oh, it's good to know Japanese. So a few people chatted for a while, but Aoyama still asked Stagela with some unease, "Miss Stella, have you discussed the marriage with your parents at home?"

Staella nodded and replied, "Well, I called home two months ago, and they all agreed. ”

"But because Staella has to support a large family, the condition is that he must send 50,000 yen to his family every month for living expenses, 50,000 yuan is nothing to me, but in the Philippines it is a lot of money. Igarashi added on the side.

Probably afraid that Aoyama would misunderstand, Stella hurriedly said: "Mr. Aoyama, I, Igarashi and I really love each other, please believe me." ”

"I believe, I believe. Qingshan hurriedly agreed, then raised his glass and said, "Then I will wish you a happy life in advance!"

A week later, Aoyama took a flight to Manila, the capital of the Philippines, and picked him up from the plane by Kenmura, the president of Panasonic's Philippine branch, who is also a senior at Aoyama University, and the two have a very good relationship in private.

As soon as they met, Jian Cun greeted him warmly: "Qingshan, how does it feel to come to the Philippines?"

"Well, it's all good, but it feels too hot. Aoyama replied while wiping his sweat.

Jiancun nodded and said: "This is natural, April to May is the hottest time in the Philippines, as long as you can endure this kind of hot and humid baptism, then you can adapt to life here." ”

"Hey, Kenmura, your clothes are very interesting. Aoyama suddenly asked curiously, pointing to a shirt similar to a cardigan but obviously looser, and embroidered with delicate patterns.

"Oh, you say this, this is called Barenta Carogu locally, it's a formal dress here, and it's cool enough to wear it and be reluctant to take it off. Kenmura explained with a smile.

Then the two got into the car that had been parked at the door for a long time, but the subsequent trip made Aoyama a little depressed, because the traffic jam here is too serious, not that there are more cars here than in Tokyo, but because people here do not obey the traffic rules, and the vehicles do not give way to each other, and finally they are completely stuck together. So Qingshan was amazed: "What a terrible car formation." ”

"Well, Manila's roads have always been anarchy, and foreigners are afraid to drive here. Panasonic even prohibits its employees from driving to work by themselves, so you can see how bad the traffic here is. Jian Cun explained helplessly.

While the two were talking, suddenly a little boy in ragged clothes and barefoot hair ran to the car with a stack of newspapers and greeted him warmly: "Uncle, do you want to buy newspapers and cigarettes?"

Qingshan was just about to pay for it, but he was stopped by Jian Cun and said: "Don't buy it, once you buy his, there will be a lot of children running to sell things to you, and it will definitely annoy you when the time comes." ”

Then he explained: "They are called 'street boys', and that's how they make a living. However, recently, there have been a lot of Japanese-Filipino mixed-race street children, all of whom were born after returning to the Philippines after the girls who went to Japan to sell prostitution, and naturally no one knew who the father was, and the mother often abandoned the child at birth because of the hardship of life. These children can spend their early childhood in orphanages, but when they grow up, they will have to rely on themselves. ”

As he spoke, he sighed again: "Maybe we can also see the consequences of economic disparities from this aspect." ”

After a while, the car finally rushed out of the crowded array and came to the Makati area, where the Panasonic branch is located.

Located in the southeast of Manila, the Makati region is a place with a modern urban feel. Banks, insurance companies, and trading companies are lined with buildings that are completely different from the rest of the Philippines and have very different levels.

Aoyama couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It's like Hawaii or Singapore! I can't tell it's in the Philippines at all." ”

"Well, this was originally a wilderness, but it was only now what it is thanks to the development of the colonial Spanish political and business nobles Ayala. Matsushita Densa's office is in the building in front of it, let's go in together!" Kenmura led the way.
