Chapter 1103: The Farmer and the Snake

For Derek, it was a day of a lifetime.

He was a arms salesman and had traveled to many places, but he had never encountered such a predicament.

Because of the events of the day, Derek's brain was very trance-like, and he messed up things again, and now, his job is probably lost, and he will be ridiculed by his peers, and he will never be able to mix in this industry in the future.

If there is a little peace of mind, it is that the waterless country has promised to give them a million emergency first, so that Derek can avoid being sued by the company to the point of imprisonment, after all, it is considered to be back some of the money.

But what is the way forward? It was difficult for Derek to know that his mind was empty, so as he drove back to the hotel alone, he unconsciously deviated and deviated from his original route, but he continued to walk in the desert as if he didn't know it, until his tires broke.

Finally, Derek discovers that something is wrong and he himself is lost!

What's worse is that although there is a radio in his car, there is no response after repeated calls!

His car was under the sand dunes, and the radio signal had been blocked by the sand dunes and could not be transmitted! The antennas of the off-road vehicles and radio stations playing in the desert are quite high, and the antennas are tied with small red flags, on the one hand, so that they can be seen, and on the other hand, they can make radio contact.

Now he could not get in touch with his companions, and by the time he was found, he was estimated to have died of hunger and thirst in the desert, so he had no choice but to go on foot, and when the cannon sounded, he trekked on foot in the direction of the cannon sound.

It didn't take long for the sky to get dark, and the shadow of loneliness and death finally enveloped Derek, who had seen and waved to the helicopter, but the other party did not notice him and flew away.

Derek sat down in the sand dunes, and the pain that had been suppressed all this time pressed against him, so that Derek couldn't take it anymore, and suddenly sat there, crying and crying.

Thinking about the grievances of the past few months, thinking about being teased again today, Derek felt his chest clogged, he cried and cried, and finally the exhaustion came up, and he actually lay on the hot sand dunes in the sun, and fell asleep.

In his sleep, he seemed to see the light appear, as if he saw a goddess flying in the sky waving to him, and then the goddess fell down on him and reached out to push him.

"Ah, my goddess, take me away." Derek muttered, and then, opening his eyes.

The light was still shining overhead, it was a flare that had not yet burned and was slowly falling, and several people were surrounding him, several of them were Oriental faces, and another, wearing a turban and a robe, should be a native of the locality.

"Goddess?" Nie Jianqiang said: "We are all human beings, but not gods, you expect God to save you, why don't we do it, brother, we have dispatched hundreds of people to look for you everywhere in the desert, you are good, you actually lie here and sleep?" ”

Behind them, there was a reconnaissance vehicle converted from a Mercedes-Benz heavy truck, which was one of the many convoys dispatched, and the guide of the waterless country was also watching him at this time.

They followed the footprints, missed them several times along the way, and now, at last, they found that this person was actually sleeping!

When he saw Nie Jianqiang and the others, a nameless fire surged in Derek's heart: "I just sleep, I like to sleep here, I don't need you to look for it." ”

"Hey, man, see? That's what he said, and seeing that the sandstorm was coming, since he wanted to stay here and sleep, let him stay here. Let's go. Nie Jianqiang said to the guide of the waterless country.

Dust storm!

In the desert, the sandstorm is the most terrible phenomenon, the scene of wind and sand everywhere, people shudder, if a person is in the sandstorm, the only result is that it will be covered by the desert, and even the body will not be found in the future.

After Nie Jianqiang finished speaking, he turned around and left, and Derek finally bowed his head: "Hey, everyone, please don't leave me." ”

"Come on, then." Nie Jianqiang shouted: "Remember, we saved you." Alas, have you heard the story of the farmer and the serpent? ”

Hearing these words in Derek's mind, he suddenly began to feel unhappy again, but when he heard that the sandstorm was coming, he really didn't have any backbone.

As for the farmer and the snake? Hmph, I'm so miserable, it's not that you hurt me.

Derek was saved by people from the eastern powers at this time, but Derek himself was still not grateful.

And Qin Zhenhua didn't need Derek's gratitude, after all, they found Derek, even if they did a great favor to the waterless country, at this time, after getting the news that Derek had been found, Ibrahim finally let out a long breath.

"Thank you to our friends in the East." Ibrahim said: "It was your help that kept us from having a bad incident. ”

The help of the great powers of the East was indispensable, they fired a dozen flares with the longest range, and it was at this distance that Derek was found.

If other howitzers don't have enough range, they can't shoot flares at all, and it's not easy to find.

"That's what we're supposed to do." Qin Zhenhua said: "Besides, we and Mr. Derek are also old friends, and it is incumbent on us to save his life." ”

The flare was fired by us, and it was our people who found it in the end, whether Derek admitted it or not, we saved it, and they can't erase this credit.

As for the story of the farmer and the snake, Qin Zhenhua naturally knows it, but what he values now is the relationship between the farmer and the farmer.

The other people's faces are not good-looking, but what happened today is enough to show the advantage of range, it seems that they have no possibility of continuing to bid successfully, and the people of the waterless country will definitely take out today's matter and hype it up.

They try to be fair, so that others don't have anything to say.

Even if the Americans want to exert pressure, they can say that they can bid fairly, and if you are not satisfied, you can provide us with howitzers of the same range.

In particular, the representative of the Americans, John Sr., is still lying in bed! John Sr. did not attend this dinner.

People from other countries did not participate much, and most of the people present were people from the big countries in the East, and they are now in the posture of victors.

"I like to roast whole lambs." Looking at the dishes from the dinner, Qin Zhenhua said: "Next time, I invite you to our first machine factory, we will make roasted whole sheep for everyone on the grassland." ”
