Chapter 160: Lost
"This morning, a grand donation ceremony was held at the Liberian Embassy in China, signed by the Liberian Ambassador and the general manager of Haichang International Trade Company, a star enterprise in the city. It is reported that this is the first donation activity carried out by a domestic private company since the expansion of the Liberian civil war, with a total value of about 200,000 Chinese dollars, mainly in the form of food, medicine, daily necessities, etc."
This is actually yesterday's news replay, on the LCD large-screen TV, the fat man is holding a pair of black hands with a smile on his face, standing in front of the blind magnesium lamp and frequently signaling, not to mention, this guy is dressed like a dog, pretending to be quite like that.
Of course, this amount of donations is not on CCTV news at all, even in the imperial capital news channel of the local station, it is only a short dozen seconds, which is equivalent to spending money on an advertisement, and this is exactly what Liu Yu wants to achieve.
Seeing the brief images of the civil war on TV, those families who lost their loved ones, and the orphans crying helplessly, it turns out that war is not far away from us. 200,000 Huaxia coins is just a month's profit of the head office, and maybe it can save a life.
It's early morning now, and last night's hangover is still in his memory, he didn't expect Su Wei to be so able to drink, even the newly learned games are on par with him, how much did the two of them drink in total? Liu Yu looked at the empty jars scattered on the ground and rubbed his somewhat painful brain.
The final result was that the two of them lay on the sofa all night, of course, it was Su Wei curled up on the sofa, he only leaned on his upper body, his feet were on the coffee table, Su Wei's head was still pillowed on his lap, it seemed that it was very comfortable, and she slept soundly.
So even though he was awake, he didn't move, just touched the remote control from the corner of the sofa and turned on the TV that he hadn't watched for a long time, what has the international situation become? Are the people of the world still in dire straits? To what new height has the total output value of domestic industry and agriculture risen? He needs to re-understand it.
"Hmm." I don't know if I heard something or dreamed of something, Su Wei let out a dream, and just when Liu Yu thought she was awake, she turned over and slept on the other side.
Looking at it from the side, her face was still flushed, very cute like a big apple, wearing a short-sleeved pajamas with cartoon patterns, and a pair of floral loose shorts, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her hair was scattered on his thighs, I don't know when, her short hair turned into long hair.
Su Wei slept very soundly, her whole body was in the sofa, and she hadn't changed much in one night, from a psychological point of view, she had always lived very carefully and knew how to protect herself, but Liu Yu immediately doubted her judgment, wasn't she worried about what she would do?
Two drunk men and women, if they are put in the TV series, the next morning most likely the woman will wake up and open the quilt to see what she is wearing, and then let out a miserable scream, but she sleeps so soundly that she is smiling in her dreams.
"Jingle Bells"
Liu Yu, who was thinking wildly, suddenly heard a doorbell, and if she ignored it and kept pressing it like this, it would definitely wake her up, so Liu Yu had to gently lift her head and put it on the sofa, and walked out to open the door by herself.
"What time is it, you adulterers and adulteresses still don't get up? Honest"
"Shh
Without waiting for the fast mouth of the statement to finish, Liu Yu stretched out his fingers and made a silent motion, and then walked out of the room and closed the door with his backhand.
"Can you stop talking nonsense, what is an adulterer and an adulteress, our two men are unmarried and our women are unmarried, is this a legitimate relationship?"
"Social? So to speak, last night"
The statement automatically ignored those explanations and began to make up for it on its own, Liu Yu was defeated by her gossip spirit, it doesn't matter if he is a man, but what about a girl?
"Okay, okay, just drank all night, nothing happened, and you were disappointed."
"Go, who are you fooling, you can drink all night?"
Obviously, the statement did not believe it, and to be honest, Liu Yu himself did not dare to believe it.
"Believe it or not, just ask Su Wei later, by the way, your husband is on TV, why didn't you mention it yesterday?"
"You see? What is there to say about the last time the fat man went back to TV, it wasn't your money that was spent. โ
For her husband's sรจ, the statement was disdainful, which made Liu Yu a little strange.
"There is no smoke, I have a headache, and my mouth is bitter."
Liu Yu knows that she has a habit of smoking, is she a strong woman, this is also one of the signs.
"That's all there is to it."
The statement felt out a pack, it was the kind of slender woman's cigarette, Liu Yu was hungry and didn't choose to eat, picked out one and put it on his mouth, the statement helped him light it, took a puff of it, a mint smell sandwiched with the fragrance of tobacco into the spleen, Liu Yu leaned his head against the wall, and spit out a smoke ring beautifully.
Perhaps it was his actions that aroused his addiction to smoking, and the statement also gave himself a thumb, and the two of them swallowed clouds and fog in the corridor, and neither of them spoke for a while.
"It's not a matter to keep it like this, you see, it's almost done here, so go back quickly, I'm afraid that the fat man will scold me for not being righteous enough."
"Besides, it's good here."
The tone of the statement was a little low, and he felt that most of the ingredients were perfunctory, and he answered like this, Liu Yu turned his head to look at her, his slender fingers with nail polish were holding cigarettes, and his eyes were looking at the front lonely, a stream of petty bourgeois decadence.
"What's good, you're a woman, or a married woman, and you'll go back when you're done, and that's it, do you hear?"
Liu Yu can't see her like that, it's rare to say a domineering sentence that can't be distinguished, both of them are his good friends, he doesn't want to cause any contradictions, and he doesn't want this contradiction to be related to himself.
"Thank you, Yuzi."
The statement turned his head and smiled back at him, but he always felt that there was some reluctance in that smile, and there was a sense of indescribability.
"Hey, Sister Shu"
Without waiting for Liu Yu to persuade him any further, the door next to him suddenly opened, and Su Wei glanced at half of her head, and then quickly retreated, because she found that this was Liu Yu's room.
"Haha, I've got you."
The statement threw down half of the cigarette butt and rushed in at once, and the two of them laughed and joked inside, occasionally interspersed with a sentence or two of torture. Liu Yu shook her head speechlessly, maybe she was right, live a happier life here, what happened in the end? His mind was full of questions.
"Really?"
"Really, I don't lie to you, I don't believe you check."
"Ahh You are a dead girl, you have caused my mother to lose money. โ
The room ended with a miserable scream, and when they came out, Su Wei's face was unnaturally red, not like she was hangover and didn't wake up. It just so happened that Liu Yu's cigarette was also smoked, and he looked at his body, a bathrobe and a pair of shorts, just right.
"You're going like this." Su Wei saw him walking in the direction of the elevator, and stopped him at the exit.
"Well, go swimming in the beach, can't you?"
"Ahh
This time it was Su Wei's turn to be surprised, according to the usual practice, this is usually the time when the boss leaves, and I don't know when I will come back when I go, why don't you leave today?
"To go or not, today is a holiday, all go to the beach to play, I have a treat."
Looking at their expressions, Liu Yu simply waved his hand, he had Jiang Cai's military report on him, he couldn't go back too early, otherwise he couldn't explain it clearly, just stay here for two days, let his mood relax, in order to plunge into the more tense battle that was about to come.
In the Pufu Courtyard of Quanzhou City, civil and military officials, including Zhizhou Tian Zhenzi and Xia Jing, the commander of the forbidden army, gathered in the lobby of his house to discuss how to deal with the situation in front of them.
The eyeliner returning from the capital brought tangible news, such a grand event could not be hidden from people at all, and it was easy to call a person on the street to inquire, and a few thin pages of paper were passed in the hands of everyone, and everyone who read it was uncertain.
Although he had expected it, when he really saw the numbers above, Pu Shougeng was still surprised, those extremely stingy rich people actually made such a big move, which really impressed him.
"Quanzhou was abandoned." Everyone here has this kind of thinking, without the astronomical income of the City Division, what can these people hope for? People have made it clear that they don't want to get a piece of the pie, and it looks like decades of good days are coming to an end.
"Everyone, you've seen it all."
After a while, seeing that the note had spread to everyone, Pu Shougeng stood up and coughed twice, bringing everyone's attention to him.
"Don't hide it from you, the court is hopeless, and the debt collectors are in this city, going to a certain mansion every day, and they have no choice but to entertain everyone here, and hope to forgive their sins."
His words made everyone even more depressed, and the backers who originally relied on Gancheng turned their faces one by one, and the words they said became more and more ugly every time, even if they were slaves, they couldn't stand it if they were changed people.
"Seeing that the trade winds are coming, in the past, we should have opened the sea to worship the gods and welcome the arrival of merchants, but now you see, the docks are full of our own ships, and they have done a great job, and they have not let any of them go."
"There is no income this year, and Pu is a big deal to ruin his family and abandon his business, and he will pay them compensation, but what about you?"
This is the most realistic question, compensation? What kind of compensation, relying on decades of sea profits, everyone here is very rich, but how much of those net worth really belongs to themselves? No one can say, originally thought that they were all on the same rope, but now that people have blown off the rope, no one can live, and everyone has different looks, but the majority are not angry.
Pu Shougeng glanced at their reactions, the words of interest have been explained thoroughly, if he can still accept his fate in this way, he has no choice but to take care of himself, and if he can still work together, it may not be impossible to fight.
Before he could continue to agitate, one of his subordinates poked his head out of the door, saw his gaze, and secretly made a gesture to indicate that there was urgent news coming back.
"Everyone, sit down first, and Pu will be absent."
Before leaving the lobby, he glanced at Xia Jing, who got up knowingly and followed in, although Tian Zhenzi was a little puzzled, he didn't say anything.
"How can it be!"
This time, Pu Shougeng was shocked by the news that nearly 300 sea ships and tens of thousands of thieves did not break through Qiongshan County, which was only guarded by thousands of officers and soldiers, and also caught the other party off guard, and the loss was immeasurable.
The life or death of the pirates is not in his heart, and what he has lost is just a boat, and he has many such ships. What worries him is that the combat effectiveness of the officers and men does not look at all like the lack of training, inferior equipment, and total demoralization.
"I'm afraid of a bird, according to a certain person, if you don't do it, you can do the previous thing."
Xia Jing said indifferently, since the Qiongzhou side also lost his hand, there is only one way, he has been waiting for this day for a long time, and he has long been impatient.
"The time hasn't come yet, let's see."
Pu Shougeng was not affected by his murderous tone, this was their last retreat, once it was issued, there was really no going back, and he wanted to wait. R1292
