Chapter Ninety-One: Departure
"Jonas, which is currently sending out invitations to the presentation and directory of the hotels, they all like your retreat and are able to arrange it at their hotel."
"No, Etinny, I just want to go home now, and for me, no hotel can compare to my home. Don't you want to go back to Weggis and spend more time with your wife and children? ”
Etinny glanced at Zhou Nan and said with some embarrassment: "Jonas, at least for now, you can't go home." ”
Zhou Nan paused for a moment, put down the bread in his hand, turned his head and asked, "What happened?" ”
"The World Economic Forum's conference building has entered the official construction stage, and the peninsula area is now full of people, and it is difficult for you to be quiet even at home," Etinny said, dodging Zhou's gaze. ”
Zhou Nan said a little unhappily: "Etinny, don't try to hide anything from me, it will make me change my position towards you." ”
Seeing Zhou Nan's face, Etinny had no choice but to say: "It's Jean Nord and Mayor Entlebuch, they think that the villa Sennar is too small to be your home, so they arranged for someone to go to the ranch to make plans, hoping to build you a new home." ”
Zhou Nan is indeed angry, no matter how small the Sennar villa is, it is also his home, but now that he, the master, has not agreed, they will make the decision for themselves, and it is too much to take him as the master seriously.
He looked at Audrey, who was also surprised, and asked, "When did it happen?" ”
"There's just a plan...... They want to settle the matter while you're recuperating in Geneva. The surveyor will go to the survey in these days, plan well, and then ask for your permission......"
Zhou Nanden had no appetite at the time, and said angrily: "Why didn't you discuss this matter with me first, did you want to create established facts and make me not object?" That's my home...... Not their ......"
"Don't be too angry, Jonas, although it is your home, it has also become the spiritual home of all of us, and it will become a holy place for countless people in the future. If not, do you think that peninsula can be all yours? Do you know how many people want to be your neighbor now? If it weren't for Mr. Entlebuch's strong opposition, the land near your home would have been sold for a sky-high price, because there are rich people who want to be your neighbors. ”
Zhou Nandeng was a little speechless. Yes, he didn't spend a penny now, they went through the procedures for themselves through the bank and got themselves a home of more than 500,000 square meters. It was his home, but it didn't seem to be his own.
But although it is understandable, their own home is behind their backs, and Zhou Nan still can't hide his anger. "Etinny, you can contact the mayors of Jeannord and Entlebuch at once, I need their explanations...... That's my home, not theirs! ”
Kelly poured another bowl of mushroom soup for Zhou Nan, comforted him and said, "Jonas, don't be angry, just go back and make things clear." I think they mean the same ......."
"I know, but I don't like them to do it for me."
Zhou Nan wanted to pick up the bowl, but accidentally tilted his center of gravity, his left leg fell to the ground, and he pulled the wound again. "Oops", he immediately exerted his right arm and lay on the small dining table.
Audrey immediately panicked and grabbed him. "Jonas, are you alright?"
"I'm fine......"
Zhou Nan took a deep breath and waited for the pain to dissipate. After a while, he said, "I don't understand, why they don't respect my ideas, what is the reason for this?" Isn't the ability I show to be respected by them? ”
Soon after breakfast, his attending doctor, Cassano, brought several nurses to re-examine Zhou Nan, because the symptoms of excessive blood loss had been resolved, and Zhou Nan's body was slowly recovering.
However, due to the short duration of the injury, the wound has not yet entered the recovery period, so it is necessary to continue to observe for a few days to determine the recovery status.
Zhou Nan was not afraid of an ugly wound, but he was worried not to hurt the nerves, causing muscle atrophy or neuropathic pain in the future.
The high temperature of a gunshot wound is the most likely to hurt the nervous system. He had seen many wounded comrades-in-arms before, and when it came to a rainy and cold day, it was not a sin.
However, Dr. Cassano also comforted Zhou Nan and assured that with the strength of the University Hospital of Geneva, he would not have any nerve damage.
Zhou Nan could only choose to believe them.
It wasn't until noon that Leader came to the hospital slowly, and as soon as he arrived at the hospital, he explained to Zhou Nan: "Jonas, we definitely don't disrespect your ideas at all, and the reason why we didn't tell you in advance is because we are afraid that you will shelve this plan because you don't have money now." Neither Mr. Entlebuch nor I want you to bother with your life and want to do all the chores for you, not because you don't respect you. ”
Listening to his explanation, Zhou Nan's heart felt a little better, looked at Etinny and asked, "You think the same way?" ”
Etinny nodded and said, "Your energy should be spent where you are needed more, not on these trivial things." ”
Zhou Nan sighed and said: "But I'm not a machine, I need to have a personal enjoyment of life in order to have greater excitement and affection to face the future." ”
Jean Nord nodded and said, "This is indeed our negligence, and we will ask for your opinion before making any decisions in the future." ”
Since it was not because he looked down on himself, but just because he wanted to solve his worries for himself, Zhou Nan had no anger in his heart.
In another life, he lived for almost a hundred years, and many things are easy to see. Many times, it's not about what the other person did, but about why the other person did it.
If the other party doesn't want to listen to his own opinions, then Zhou Nan will definitely not forgive. But the other party does this because he wants to save himself and solve his worries, so it is worth forgiving.
Removing the knot in his heart, Zhou Nan felt that his wound began to hurt again, in order not to get nervous, except for the anesthetic on the first day of surgery, he endured it all the time.
Although he can still tolerate this pain, the side effect of this is that his brain is groggy and he has no inspiration to write articles at all.
However, putting aside those troubles and enjoying Audrey's gentle and small intentions also made Zhou Nan feel very fulfilled.
Meanwhile, Yannick and his family finally got on the train to Zurich, Switzerland.
This time, they went out as a family, and even Claudio, who was seven months pregnant, got on the train with them. In this era, it is the dream of countless Germans to be able to leave Germany and go to peaceful Switzerland.
This was mainly due to the fact that the British allowed the train to hang two sleeper cars for their own comfort, and Yannick also bought sleeper tickets for his family.
Otherwise, Claudio was already seven months pregnant, and he wouldn't have dared to let her take the train for that long.
In this era, the train sleeper was also double-decked, but the upper floor was a bed, and the lower level was a sofa with two rows facing each other, and the cushions of the sofa could be pulled out to become a double bed.
As soon as Leon got in the car, he sat quietly by the window and looked at the scenery outside. He was born in the Far East in '33 and returned to Germany in '38 only once in the Netherlands and Belgium a few years ago, and was curious about the outside world.
Especially since the year before last, Germany has gone from enjoying the dividends of the war to being exploited. Germany, which was once rich, is now poor and white, and countless people are not clothed or fed.
If it is only physical sadness, many people can still bear it, and what is even more tragic than this is the mental oppression and personal insult.
Although Leon himself did not suffer, he saw countless tragedies happening. This made Leon, who had just grown up, prematurely enter a melancholy adolescent period.
It is said that the conditions here in Cologne are a little better, and although the resources in the British-occupied area are not abundant, the British are relatively relaxed. The area occupied by the other three countries is a hell on earth.
Leon had always wanted to see Switzerland, where Jonas's brother lived, and life there was said to be a paradise compared to Germany.
Vera held Lily in one hand and wiped a handful of his furrowed brow with the other. "Little lion, don't frown every day, or your face will be wrinkled like a little old man before you grow up."
"Sister, I've grown up."
Vera snorted and shoved Lily into his arms. "Help me hold Lily, I'll see if Claudio gets better."
Leon hugged Lily and teased her to look at the scenery outside. Lily was so happy to see that she called out to her uncle from time to time, and spat out some meaningless syllables, and no one understood what she was talking about.
But looking at her carefree appearance, Leon's brows unconsciously relaxed, revealing the innocent smile of a thirteen-year-old boy.
After helping Adenauer settle down, Yannick went to the conductor to ask for boiling water, and made a pot of fragrant coffee without milk with the ground coffee and sugar he had brought with him.
Then he asked for two Swiss newspapers, one for each of Adenauer, and began to read them.
Swiss newspapers are not sold in Germany, so you can only find them on the train.
"Switzerland would rather be blackmailed by the United States for the sake of Jonas, but also take him back to China as soon as possible, which shows that Switzerland still attaches great importance to Jonas."
Leon, who was across the aisle, heard Adenauer's words at once, and he jumped over with the child in his arms. "There's news of Brother Yonas, how is he?"
"The physical injuries should not be serious, and the Swiss community is still relatively optimistic. Give the child to your mother, see how you are sloppy, and don't fall on her. Yannick said a word to him, then turned back to Adenauer and said, "Mr. Adenauer, do you think it is possible for the European Union proposed by Jonas to be realized?" ”
Adenauer shook his head and said: "This is only a long-term goal, I don't care about it, I am more concerned about whether the European reconstruction plan he proposed can be supported by the United States, which is closely related to us." ”
