Chapter Ninety-Three: A Trace That Can't Be Found
Traveling almost a thousand kilometers from Bogotá in central Colombia to Cartagena in the far north, the regional plane landed on the runway of the airport located on the beach after an hour and a half of flight. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
From 2016 to 2002, from 36 to 22 years old. This confusion of time and space made Zhou You feel a lot of emotion when he came to this place where he died.
Because I have been to this place in my previous life, although there is a difference of more than ten years, the city has not changed much in hundreds of years, so it is easy to see the familiar scenery when traveling around.
Known as the most beautiful place in Latin America, it was listed as a cultural treasure of humanity by the United Nations as early as 17 years ago, and the entire old city has witnessed the evolution of mankind for 300 years.
Unfortunately, you don't have the slightest interest in the history of the city, preferring the blue Caribbean Sea to the monasteries, churches, inquisitions, and ancient dwellings, and the golden and silver beaches and the glamorous bikini girls on the beach.
The province of Bolivar has always been the calmest region in Colombia, and the province named after Bolívar, the father of Latin American independence, has rarely been affected by the war.
However, due to the unstable situation in the country and the large decrease in foreign tourists, it is still very deserted.
This time he came to Cartagena, and it was not Sanchez who was accompanied by Zhou You, who stayed in Bogotá to discuss the details of cooperation with Uribe, and Zhou You only brought Rodriguez and two bodyguards with him.
However, Lin Wei and Demossa have arrived from Singapore and Spain respectively, and they will accompany Zhou You to complete the donation project.
Since it is a donation to support education, of course, you can't donate in the name of an individual who travels, and if you want to expand your influence, it is better to donate in the name of the company.
Lin Wei and Demosa arrived to cooperate with the local government and publicize this matter.
Lin Wei flew from Singapore to Panama City, and then transferred from Panama to Cartagena, a hard journey. But as soon as she and Huang Wenjing arrived in Cartagena, they were fascinated by the charm of the beach, and the two women spent an afternoon on the beach before reluctantly returning to the hotel.
The arrival of Zhou You was warmly welcomed by Gustavo, the governor of Bolivar Province, and the negotiations between the two sides went very smoothly, and Zhou You easily increased the amount of the donation from the initial 200,000 US dollars to 500,000 US dollars.
Originally, Zhou You only wanted to donate to build a primary school in the countryside, but under the persuasion of the other party, he decided to accept the other party's proposal to build a comprehensive school in the slum area of Cartagena, including a primary school and a junior high school.
Building a primary school in the countryside is, of course, less impactful than building a school in the city.
The other party knows that Zhouyou is very rich and will not care about the amount of donations, but because the impact of authorizing Zhouyou's exclusive salvage right is too great, their local government can't be the master, so they can't give Zhouyou any promises, and they are embarrassed to let Zhouyou pay more.
Lin Wei and the others signed an agreement with the local government, so they were busy choosing the site of the school and preparing the construction plan, during which Huang Wenjing will stay in Cartagena and cooperate with the local government's progress to provide funds.
Zhou You didn't want to spend 500,000 yuan and let the local government embezzle it elsewhere, it would be in vain. You know, corruption here is much worse than in China.
In addition to meeting with the local leaders on the first day, on the second day, under the leadership of a beautiful tour guide, I began to visit this beautiful city, wanting to find the memories of my past life.
However, Zhou You also knew that it was impossible for him to find it. For example, in his previous life, several restaurants in the port he was most familiar with had not yet been built, and some of the several courtyards were more than ten years apart, and it was impossible for them to be those people.
He didn't even see the port gas station. "Miss Bonnette, where is the gas station here in the port of Cartagena?"
Bonnet is a traveling Mestizo, that is, a mixture of white Europeans and Indians, and her body should be mostly white, with a tall devilish body, and curly hair full of strong Latin style.
"Cartagena is now Colombia's oil center, and in the Magdalena River basin, it is Colombia's most concentrated oil producing area, where oil is refined in Cartagena's refineries," Bonnet said, pointing to a refinery. The refinery has a dedicated refueling area, and if Mr. Zhou takes the Ranger to Cartagena in the future, he will not have to worry about the supply of fuel. ”
Zhou You nodded and said, "Thank you for your explanation, this has helped me a lot." ”
"That's what I'm supposed to do."
"Maybe I can treat you to a cup of coffee."
She smiled sweetly. "It's my pleasure!"
There is a certain interest in traveling around this chick, but since the other party can be arranged by the provincial government to be a tour guide, he must also have a good family background. Without knowing the details, Zhou You is reluctant to get into trouble.
But there is no interest in cultural landscape travel, instead of running around, it is better to have a cup of coffee here to kill time.
Although it is a tourist area and the coffee here tastes quite good, because Colombia has a bad economy and is a coffee-producing region, a cup of coffee here only costs 2,000 pesos, which is equivalent to one dollar.
Sitting on a wooden chair outside the café and looking at the calm Caribbean Sea in the distance, the heart of Zhou You also felt a sense of peace.
Bonnet is a good tour guide, knows how to figure out people's psychology, and when he saw that Zhou You was in deep thought at this time, he stopped the introduction of nearby attractions, closed his mouth, and looked at the sea in the distance like Zhou You.
From time to time, she pays attention to the side face of Zhou You, which is full of manly charm and makes her heart skip a beat. But she knew that she was too far away from him, and she had no chance to be with each other at all.
Zhou You's phone rang, and his relaxed demeanor quickly turned cold. But when he saw the number of the caller, his face softened again. The other party said a long call in English, and she didn't understand a word, but from his gentle demeanor, Bonnet guessed that the other party must be his lover!
However, not long after the phone hung up, his phone rang again, this time, in Spanish. Although I don't know what the other party said, but after hanging up the phone, Zhou You laughed: "Thank you for your hospitality, Miss Bonnet, but unfortunately, my trip to Colombia is coming to an end, and you are welcome to visit Spain or Singapore in the future." ”
Bonnet said with a smile: "I also hope that Mr. Zhou's business plan will be approved, so that I can see Mr. Zhou again in Cartagena in the future." ”
