During the inspection, the sun was scorching and the heat was unbearable, and the managers of the Chinese-funded enterprises were wearing light-colored short-sleeved shirts and thin trousers and leather sandals, followed by a local black man holding a parasol, looking humble, like a black slave in the colonial era.

A large number of local laborers are also employed on the construction site, but they are engaged in the lowest level of manual labor, and the slightly technical jobs are all Chinese or Pakistani and Bangladeshi, Liu Ziguang looked in his eyes, his heart was unhappy, and asked the project manager: "Manager Liu, why not hire more local workers?" ”

The project manager is called Liu Yuhang, and Liu Ziguang was the same family 500 years ago, the total cost of the port project is billions of yuan, and it is naturally not ordinary people who can take on this task, he explained: "It's not that we don't want to hire local people, it's really that local workers are unusable, the same work, Chinese workers can complete it in an hour, South Asian workers can complete it in an hour and a half, and local blacks need to use three to four hours, and they are frizzy." ”

A technician next to him also interjected: "Local workers are not good at work, the legal awareness is quite strong, cement pouring is going on here, and when it is time to get off work, they can leave their jobs and leave, and the salary must be settled daily, take the money and leave, and it is possible that they will not come the next day." ”

Someone else added: "They go to drink when they take the money, they never save money, they come to work when they have spent the money, and they go to buy alcohol and drink after they get paid." ”

Liu Ziguang couldn't laugh or cry, these situations are basically true, Western Sadamoa is a backward and barren small country, and the colonists and those in power have never put the national quality education in an important position, even the educated bureaucrats in San Juan are as slow as a turtle crawling, not to mention these illiterate black people who have no concept of time.

"We must vigorously carry out quality education, run some middle school classes, teach them language, teach them technology, drive, weld, operate machines, and train a group of high-quality workers." Liu Ziguang said.

Everyone nodded their heads in deep disapproval.

When leaving the gate of the construction site, there were two black soldiers carrying AK47 standing at the gate, with a red star prefixed on their left chest, Liu Ziguang knew that this was a foreign employee of the Red Star Security Company, and petty theft often occurred on the construction site, and he expected that the sixty Chinese employees could not take care of him anyway, so he had to hire a large number of locals, and these people were also his subordinates.

The black security guards saluted with guns, the motorcade honked their horns in return, drove towards the city, crossed the street to the gate of the palace, the palace that was destroyed by missiles in the past has been repaired, the fountains on the square are murmuring, the trees are full of flowers, the black policemen in neat uniforms are on patrol, the bronze statue of His Majesty the former King Bobby stands in front of the palace, two royal guard soldiers stand guard on the left and right, the convoy slowly drives past the bronze statue, honks the whistle to salute, and then stops in front of the palace gate.

Liu Ziguang got out of the car and walked into the palace under the welcome of the royal staff, while the armed guards stayed outside the door to stand guard, only assistants and personal guards could follow inside, but the personal weapons had to be removed.

As soon as he walked into the palace, little Arthur pounced, as if his son saw his long-lost father as cordial, in fact, Liu Ziguang also served as the king's godfather and tutor, in fact, it was equivalent to the role of a father, little Arthur was an orphan, not long after recognizing his ancestors, his "biological father" was blown up and killed, living in the huge palace, surrounded by countless servants, in fact, he was still very lonely in his heart, and the happiest was the moment when the godfather arrived.

"Teacher, look what I have in store for you." Little Arthur pulled Liu Ziguang to the courtyard, twenty Wang Jiawei soldiers in red military uniforms stood in a row, the leading officer pulled out his saber and raised it on the tip of his nose, in the sound of the command, the soldiers raised their guns in unison, they used the old-fashioned FAL automatic rifles, the bayonets were shining, mighty and majestic, and the queue was neat, which was enough to be proud of the African army.

Seeing this small guard of honor, Liu Ziguang smiled, stroked Little Arthur's head, and said approvingly: "Very imposing." ”

After receiving the teacher's praise, little Arthur showed two rows of white teeth and smiled proudly, waved his hand to disband the honor guard, and complained: "The tutor hired by Martin is very annoying, he doesn't allow me to fish, I don't want to go out to play, I have to read countless English books every day, I don't like him very much." ”

In order to be responsible for the young king, the cabinet invited some European teachers at a high price to teach him, history, art, Portuguese, English, French, poetry, prose, piano, oil painting courses are full, little Arthur is the age of playfulness, where can he stand this, but he has no say in the matter of education, so he can only turn to the godfather for help.

Liu Ziguang said: "It's easy to do, I'll take you to the manor to hunt, fish, and ride horses when I go back." ”

Little Arthur jumped three feet high, and several white teachers shook their heads when they heard it from afar, they all knew the relationship between this Asian man and the king, and there were even rumors that this man was the ruler of Western Sadamoa, and even the prime minister listened to him.

Liu Ziguang is very proud of his identity, the king's chief tutor, isn't that Taifu, ranking among the top three bulls.

"I want to go fishing right now, okay?" Little Arthur said, quietly glancing at the butler with a straight face.

"Absolutely." Liu Ziguang took care of everything, and didn't care at all about the palace manager's murderous eyes, and took little Arthur to the palace pond to fish.

That night, the palace set up a dinner to entertain Liu Ziguang, a formal European-style custom-made banquet table, a sterling silver candle holder, French red wine, a British trained waiter, a snow-white napkin, a shiny tableware, and exquisite food, full of aristocratic style, in the huge restaurant, only the two of them dined, but the servants stood several, looking at the uncomfortable little king, Liu Ziguang pushed the plate and said, "Let's eat something else." ”

Five minutes later, Liu Ziguang lit a bonfire by the pond in the Imperial Garden, and grilled the fish caught during the day on the shelf, although the roast was half-cooked, only sprinkled with salt and pepper, but little Arthur ate very happily, Liu Ziguang lit a cigarette, sat next to him and smiled, just like a father looking at his son.

……

The next day, he began to deal with complicated official business, participated in the groundbreaking ceremony of the hospital built with Chinese assistance, registered and established the Mining Joint Stock Company, and officially named Wood Mine to commemorate this gentleman of noble character, and then inspected the West Office of Red Star Company and the project department of Zhicheng Overseas Engineering Company, and signed the project contract for the supporting works of San Juan International Airport and the National Apartment with the Western authorities as the manager of the engineering company

Airports, docks, railways, highways, power plants, water plants, hospitals, schools, stadiums and other infrastructure are bidding and starting, Western Sadamoa is full of guests from all over the world, some people have consumption, the San Juan Hotel is full every day, all the business negotiators from various countries and engineers who come to debug and install equipment, the infrastructure of Western Sadamoa is too poor, and now with the money in hand, all have to be replaced with the latest, which is equivalent to changing the country inside and out, this kind of huge project, there are no more than ten years can not be done.

Xuanzi's business also opened to Africa, and he set up an auto repair center in the center of San Juan, before the whole of Western Sadamoa did not have a repair station for adding freon to the car air conditioner, and even such a trivial matter as changing a screw had to go to neighboring countries, Xuanzi's shop can be regarded as a monopoly, and the business continued every day, making money and earning hand cramps, and it was a group of teenagers without passports who helped him work, and it was the bad teenagers of the "Jiangbei Longtang" who were ordered by Liu Ziguang to be smuggled in.

Xuanzi is not the only Jiangbei person who has made a fortune in San Juan, Li Jianguo has stepped down from the position of training director of the Western Sadamoa War Department, opened a security company, and business is booming, and even compared the momentum of Red Star, Zhang Baiqiang, Chu Xiangdong and some other guys did not stay in the government to hold public posts, but found positions in the mines.

After finishing his official duties, Liu Ziguang took little Arthur to a private manor in the suburbs as promised.

Liu Ziguang's territory is 2,500 acres of land, in addition to the mines, there are also large plantations, the original villa was burned down, the Chinese engineering team was asked to rebuild one with reinforced concrete, tennis courts, swimming pools, helipads and other common luxury gadgets in movies are all equipped, and there are a few horses in the stables, Liu Ziguang has not yet reached the point where he has the leisure to spend a lot of money to play horse racing, these horses are just ordinary riding horses, riding horses and carrying guns to cruise their own territory is more comfortable than driving an off-road vehicle.

The territory includes a stretch of high-quality beach, white sand, swaying coconut groves, turquoise sea, and the gambling ship Captain Le on the sea, which is being renovated, all of which give a heavenly feel.

The local life is very leisurely, fishing every day, sleeping, swimming, barbecue and drinking beer on the beach, wearing sunglasses under the coconut grove to see the seagulls in the sky, a look is a few hours, no mobile phone, no telephone, even the concept of time is vague, the day is only divided into morning, noon, afternoon and night, anyway, everyone's rhythm of life is like this, who is busy every day everyone feels strange.

Of course, these are superficial phenomena, if you live in the permanent area, you will feel all kinds of discomfort, the climate is hot, mosquitoes are rampant, there is no electricity, no Internet, no running water, no steamed dumplings, ramen and delicious Chinese food, only the scorching sun, monotonous life, beer warmed by the sun, and the same black face, normal people live for a month or two and get tired of it.

But with the improvement of infrastructure, these regrets will no longer exist, Liu Ziguang has a plan, in the territorial waters of Western Sadamoa to buy a few uninhabited islands, transformed into luxury private islands, to create a tourism brand, the future marriage can also be held on the island, no girl can resist this romantic feeling.

After riding around on horseback, Liu Ziguang took little Arthur to inspect several intended islands on a speedboat, and played until midnight before returning to the manor to start the dinner.

was feasting on barbecue beer, Liu Ziguang's mobile phone rang, this mobile phone used the card of Jiangbei Mobile, only a few people knew, and when he answered the phone, it turned out to be the voice of Deng Miaofan, the son of Brother Deng.

"Teacher Liu, I'...... I'm looking for you something. ”

"What do you say?"

"I'm having some trouble at school...... provoked people in society. ”

"This matter, you go to Huaqingchi to find Second Uncle Zhuo, just say that I let you go, he will help you settle it, I can't go back to the field for a while."

"Oh, I got it, Mr. Liu."

Thousands of miles away in Jiangbei City, Deng Miaofan put down the phone and said helplessly to a few students with expectations on their faces: "Teacher Liu can't come back from the field, let us find Second Uncle Zhuo." ”

"Second Uncle Zhuo, is he the boss of Huaqing Pool?" Classmate Wang Dongliang asked.

"Yes."

"You know him?"

"I don't know, but he's a former colleague of mine my dad."

"Great."

"What's good, the more this is the case, the more you can't find him, he told my dad as soon as possible, okay, let's not ask for help, solve it ourselves." Deng Miaofan gritted his teeth and said.

Wang Dongliang hesitated: "Then should we still go to school?" The Aotian Club has let out the word, and we will fight once and for all. ”
