674 I've never eaten pork and I've seen a pig run
Since the Age of Discovery, many Westerners have had a visceral sense of superiority over all the people of color in the world. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Perhaps in the eyes of many Westerners, they are the masters of this world, they deserve to be worshiped all over the world, and all people in the world should shake their heads and beg in front of Westerners, that is the normal state of the world.
This idea developed into the Second World War, and finally caused the whole world to reflect on the large-scale genocide of the Germans, which in turn led to a large-scale national independence movement.
Regrettably, despite the reflections, until the 21st century, this kind of thinking is still very marketable, and a considerable number of Westerners still think so, and even some so-called public figures do not hesitate to make nonsense to attract attention.
Yang Deshan does play a North African, but Yang Deshan never thinks that the British are nobler than the North Africans, and those who insult others are always humiliated, and if Henry Saxton wants to see Yang Deshan's jokes from this aspect, it can only be self-inflicted.
Of course, Henry Saxton can't care about Yang Deshan now, and whether it is an insult to the one upstairs to go like this, it is the most important thing to invite Yang Deshan upstairs as soon as possible, and then eliminate the impact of this matter.
It's a pity that Yang Deshan is not a puppet at the mercy of others, even if it is a clay figure, it still has three points of earthiness, not to mention a "prophet" like Yang Deshan.
So after Henry Saxton invited him again, Yang Deshan's attitude was very resolute: "I have already said that if you want to find me, you know where I am. ”
In fact, at this time, outside the gate of the British garrison, thousands of camel cavalry were ready to attack the British garrison at any time.
Although Yang Deshan only brought Shalimu when he entered the British garrison, Yang Dehai has always paid attention to the situation here, and now that there is something wrong here, Yang Dehai will deal with it immediately.
"Lewis, please don't do this, you're complicating things and it's not good for us." Henry Saxton had a pleading in his eyes.
"It's because of you that things get complicated, so let's sit down again when you think about what kind of attitude you should have towards us." With a resolute attitude, Yang Deshan shook off Henry Saxton's hand and strode out.
Henry Saxton may indeed be an aristocrat, but there are so many such aristocrats in England that there is no need for Yang Deshan to bow his head and tolerate it for the sake of a Henry Saxton.
The image that Yang Deshan wants to establish is tough and resolute, no matter who he faces, Yang Deshan will not give in, so that he can set a bottom line when he first starts dealing with the British, so that both sides can understand where this bottom line is.
"Please wait." An old, majestic voice rang out.
It may be a bit fantasy to describe it this way, but the phrase "dwelling and moving qi and nourishing the body" is really very reasonable, and some people can convey majesty through their voices and make people obey that kind of way.
Maybe it's not obedience, but it definitely won't be ignored.
Yang Deshan stopped, gave Sha Limu a look, and watched Sha Limu run to the already restless cavalry to report the situation, and then turned around.
At the entrance of the hall stood a man in a suit and leather shoes, his silver-white hair was very conspicuous in the light, and the direction in which the people around him stood was also very interesting, and the stars hugged the old man in the center like the moon.
"Young man, don't be so impulsive, or you won't even know what you're missing." The old man is a bit virtuous, and when he speaks, he is also a life coach.
"It doesn't matter, youth is the biggest capital, it's okay to find it back if you miss it, as for summarizing the lessons of gains and losses, that's what you should do when you're old." Yang Deshan didn't mean much to be taught.
Yang Deshan is not afraid of losing opportunities, young people, you have to have a little young momentum.
"Maybe you don't notice that you're acting too aggressive, which can make a bad impression on people and affect how others perceive you." The old man is also a life coach.
"Only mediocre people will not be hated, only those who do not want to make progress will not be aggressive, and from this point of view, if they will attract criticism from some people because of their aggressiveness, then let them criticize them." Yang Deshan doesn't have much reverence for authority, he will definitely say what he wants to say, even if what he says is offensive to the old man in front of him, Yang Deshan still doesn't hesitate.
"Hehe, you are such a maverick, how can people trust you?" The old man has also passed the age of getting angry at every turn, and he is very self-contained.
"People who will trust me will trust me no matter what I do, people who don't trust me will not trust me no matter what I do, so I don't need to let people who don't trust me change their attitudes, I am only responsible for those who trust me." Yang Deshan is full of energy.
Regarding this trust or distrust, the nearly 10,000 soldiers outside the barracks now are the best example, if they don't trust Yang Deshan, they won't fight for Yang Deshan.
Just after Sharim returned, the camel cavalry who had been gearing up just now had regained their composure, and the wine that should have been drunk and the barbecue that should have been roasted looked the same as at the beginning.
But everyone will understand that the current calm is just an illusion, and once Yang Deshan is in need, these people will immediately turn over and become demons in the dark night.
Well, in addition to the "prophet", Yang Deshan also has a nickname, called "demon", which was given to Yang Deshan by Yang Deshan's enemies, of course, most of them have now turned to dust.
"Well said, so how are you going to gain my trust?" The old man clapped gently and graciously, and then asked a seemingly tricky question.
If you want to gain the trust of strangers, this is indeed a problem, and voting for a name is the best stepping stone, but unfortunately Yang Deshan is not ready to do that.
"I've gained your trust, otherwise you wouldn't be here, I don't think you're idle." Yang Deshan's answer was a bit unexpected.
Yang Deshan originally wanted to say, "I don't think you have much time to waste," but it seems too disrespectful to say so, so he changed it to the current one.
It is still very good to have a brain before speaking, and the old man's applause is more enthusiastic, and his mouth is even more enthusiastic: "Very smart young man, I think I like you a little." ”
This is not inviting Yang Deshan to be a base, just a simple appreciation.
Yang Deshan didn't mean to be flattered, not even a little happy, just looked at the old man quietly.
"Introduce myself, my name is Alfred Christian, I'm from Denmark, and some of the oil here belongs to me, so tell me, why would you make me willing to give it to you out of my pocket?" When it comes to his last name, Alfred has an extraordinary momentum, as if that moment is one with the family's history.
Christian, this surname is also the surname of the King of Denmark, considering that the mother of the current King of Great Britain, George V, is from Denmark, so it is understandable why Alfred is here.
Being able to have a part of Gairyan at this point in time, Alfred is indeed amazingly energetic, perhaps "amazing energy" is not enough to describe, and it is more appropriate to use his hands and eyes to reach the sky.
"Mr. Alfred, allow me to address you as such." Listen, this is the more troublesome thing to deal with the aristocracy, even if it is just a title, it may offend Alfred, Yang Deshan can still notice: "You want to extract oil from the ground, don't you need to cost?" ”
Since Alfred didn't mind that there were a lot of people present, there was no need for Yang Deshan to be taboo.
Besides, if the status is low, it is estimated that they will not appear here, if you talk about it carefully, almost all the men and women present have interests related to the Gairyan oil field, and only under the premise of interests, these people will come to Gairyan, otherwise they will definitely not come here.
"Of course there is a cost, so I don't mind, you know, we've invested tens of millions of pounds, and you haven't paid a single shilling, but now you have to take the biggest one, hehe." Alfred's words were not finished, and the meaning was clear enough.
The Gairyan oil field has now been divided into countless shares, perhaps the proportion owned by some shareholders should be described as a decimal point, Yang Deshan wants one percent, that is, ten percent, which is definitely a large enough share, and it is estimated that the British royal family is also such a small share.
Think of the oil fields of Nova Baku, how many were there for the then French president, Raymond Poincaré?
Five percent only.
Alfred is indeed highly respected, at least it seems so, just when Alfred spoke, although there were many people around Alfred, no one intervened, and even people's breathing subconsciously slowed down.
But when Alfred spoke about it, the people around Alfred reacted, some sneering disdainfully, some snorting threateningly, and even whispering curses.
If there is no interest involved, people can restrain themselves according to secular habits, and once their own interests are involved, go to special rules!
"If you think of the one I took as the cost, then I guess you'll feel better." Yang Deshan found another way.
Cost!
Alfred's eyes lit up.
Yes, the exploitation of oil fields does require costs, labor costs, security costs, transportation costs, etc., these are all one of the costs, and if Yang Deshan's share is included in the cost, not in the profit, Alfred suddenly feels that Yicheng is not unacceptable.
"Aha, you're such a genius, you're right, that's the cost!" Alfred was full of praise.
Genius is not enough, but practice makes perfect, Yang Deshan has lived in Djerba for more than two years, and Djerba Island is a huge oil city, all the oil of the new Baku oil field and the Basel Petroleum Development Company are refined in Djerba, Yang Deshan has never eaten pork and has never seen a pig run?
