Chapter XXXVII: The Fog in the Distance Section 3
Megan looked at the bearded man in front of her stiffly, Megan's expression was not very natural, it was like this for everyone, so that you could face a fierce bodyguard around you, plus a powerful figure with a sinking face like water, and not smiling.
After looking at the foreign scholar for a while, Zhang Jiaming said coldly: "Sit down." Hearing the other party's correct English, Meghan was immediately surprised, in his mind, the torture he had endured was not tortured by a person dressed as a priest, and now he was received by a character with a rough appearance that was reminiscent of nothing more than a character like Tarzan, but he could hear fluent English, how could he not be surprised? What's more, this high-ranking and powerful figure may also be the general of a force he has never met! The two foreigners didn't dare to be casual, but everyone else said so, so they had to sit on the leather sofa carefully, and their eyes only looked at the tip of the shoe, and they didn't dare to look at the strong person opposite.
"I've seen your material, Mr. Meghan, you are a top talent in your field of knowledge, and you know much more than the two Norwegian botanists under my command. But that doesn't mean you're going to be able to earn my trust, you know what I mean? Zhang Jiaming lightly raised the glass in his hand, and the brown wine in it has always made him enjoy it very much. In addition, knowing who you have served in the past, and knowing the subject of your research, I wonder one thing, if I give you the same treatment and conditions, will you be willing to assist me? "Zhang Jiaming is the kind of person who is too lazy to do any troublesome things about Corporal Lixian, for him, bandits are the best, what is the most important thing in the twenty-first century? Talent! For this kind of foreign scientific and technological talents, Zhang Jiaming is as many as he wants, these people used to disdain to understand too thoroughly, he only cares about how many benefits these people can bring to himself, just like the priest, as long as he concentrates on preaching and preaching, and does not come to stir up his great cause of exterminating zombies, then play as he pleases, the reason why he wants a priest is that the priest can stabilize the rear and win people's hearts! Now that the priest has begun to teach a few baptized young believers, it may not be long before there will be a few more yellow-skinned native priests under his command! The unpredictability of the future has made Zhang Jiaming impatient, what he wants is talents, talents who can bring him practical benefits, as for those high-sounding reasons, naturally someone will help him think.
"Your Excellency, I am just a doctor who knows how to make medicines, I don't understand, if you want me to make medicines for you or other medical problems, I can provide such services, but I have a small request." Hesitating, the man raised his head slightly, but he still didn't have the courage to look directly at Zhang Jiaming. "Say, as long as I can satisfy you, do you want a woman? Wealth? Zhang Jiaming pulled a young wolf girl, a girl dressed as wild showed her white teeth, enjoying Zhang Jiaming to pick her chin, and her own lord had the same heart, she didn't care about the ridicule on this occasion at all, the girl's wild and slender body made others swallow saliva after seeing it, the plump front and back of the upturned part made any normal man breathless, coupled with delicate facial features, tsk, Rao is you like the Buddha Lord has to move the heart, there is such a stunner, but if it is a man, it is estimated that they will not hesitate to agree, but Megan disappointed Zhang Jiaming!
The foreigner grabbed Alina's hand tightly, the two looked at each other with concern, and at the same time turned their heads and looked at Zhang Jiaming firmly; "I'm sorry, Your Excellency the General, I already have a white-headed appointment with Alina, and I understand your kindness!"
"Oh? So what do you want from me? I'm a poor man, haha, so poor that I don't even have a few decent pieces of furniture! Zhang Jiaming sat back on the sofa, leaned comfortably on the back chair, and brought back the wine glass. I want an undisturbed environment to continue my research! "Almost categorically, Meghan threw out her own conditions.
"I can promise you first, however, I can't guarantee that you will be provided with enough equipment and conditions, everything depends on you trying to solve it as much as possible, in addition, I remind you that it is absolutely impossible for you to disclose the matter of your settlement on my side to the people of your original organization, I can tell you clearly, if your identity is exposed, then the fate that greets you will disappear forever, including the subject you have worked so hard for! Do you understand? Nodding slightly, Meghan seemed to have made up her mind, "Your Excellency General, you can guarantee our safety, which is the greatest support for me!" Rest assured, I'm 60% sure about that subject! “
"Oh! Do you know? You barely brought out any of your own materials, and all your research notes are no longer around? Staring at this man suspiciously, Zhang Jiaming's face was full of disbelief. The technology of the East has lagged behind the West countless times! The bearded man looked up proudly, but Alina next to him frowned and pulled his hand, as if to remind him of his words! Hahahaha! Zhang Jiaming laughed loudly, he would not bother with this kind of national pride. Western technology? As far as I know, the top scientists are all in the United States, and I also know that one out of every four senior scientists in the West is of Chinese descent, and only one out of every eleven senior scientists is of Middle Eastern descent like you. Who is the smartest people? Kindness? This counterattack made Meghan stunned all of a sudden, his name is Middle Eastern, but he changed to an American style after arriving in the United States, so as to facilitate integration into this new society. Unexpectedly, his weak national pride was just a sad joke in the eyes of the other party. Flushed, Megan was embarrassed to refute. After thinking for a while, he still raised his head to defend himself: "I won't say anything else, here are my research records, and all the information I have." He handed out a tiny disc, and Zhang Jiaming almost shocked this little thing on his thumb to the point that his jaw dropped. This platinum disc is a confidential product of the military base I serve, and its production technology has always been strictly secret, you see, its volume is only the size of a coin and a half, but its storage capacity is the capacity of hundreds of high-end servers! It is no exaggeration to say that one-twentieth of the world's knowledge can be stored on this plate. Zhang Jiaming's eyes widened, this news was nothing less than a fantasy, and with a slight groan, his complexion immediately changed back. Okay, let's not bother with the problem of this plate, since you are sure, then go about it, I will arrange a hidden place for you, however, I also have conditions. Zhang Jiaming will not easily believe this foreigner, he needs a guarantee, a guarantee that the other party will never dare to betray himself lightly, "What do you want?" Don't you see! I don't have to ,,,," Megan stood up excitedly and yelled, but he saw something from the other party's confident eyes, he didn't follow him and was not a fool, although he didn't have much time to work hard in society, the people he came into contact with were guards or executives plus colleagues and the like, he still understood the laws of human nature and social movements, following Zhang Jiaming's sight, Megan looked at his beloved Alina----
With an unquestionable tone, for the first time, Zhang Jiaming issued a formal order: "I give you all the right to research, and appoint a reliable guard to fully support you!" As long as you have any requirements, you will get the corresponding help, materials, equipment, equipment, everything, we will do our best to meet you! Of course, don't even think about it if you want us to get you advanced scientific equipment like a plasma collider! All in all, under my protection, you can do your research to your heart's content. As for your lover, Alina, I will also arrange a suitable position for him, you can rest assured, you have a good chance of meeting, I will not interfere with your personal time, hehe. That's all for today, let's all go down, guard class, and give my warrant to Deputy Brigade Commander Wei! ”
With a puzzled expression, although she still didn't understand the way this mysterious general acted, but she could not find anything wrong with her own arrangement for the time being, Meghan nodded and thanked and left the room.
On the embankment on the bank of the R River, the net fishing pavilion was set up early, and more than a dozen guards were cooperating with the cooks to set up a cauldron on the side of the embankment, and all kinds of fish and shrimp that had just been fished from the river were cleaned, just waiting for the oil pot to be red and fried! A few cooks brought the big pots of vegetables off the truck, washed them and started the normal process, and they were busy with a lot of sweat, but they all had sweet smiles on their faces, they didn't have to worry about their safety, they survived under the protection of a strong leader, and all they had to do was pay a little bit of labor! Compared to those soldiers who fought to the death against zombies on the battlefield, he was so happy! They are Zhang Jiaming's most loyal supporters, here, no man can bully them at will, on the contrary, many men have regained interest in these women who have become yellow and skinny and haggard because of their previous difficult lives, and they have begun to constantly please them! In particular, a few young cooks, at the strong request of the priest like a scoundrel, "seized" a large number of dairy products from the Ministry of Agriculture, and strengthened the nutrition of these dying rescued women. They were secretly laughing, whispering to each other about how handsome a young man of the guards was, or a handsome guy who always looked at a certain part of a certain cook, and from time to time, the girls would laugh heartily, as if their current work had made them forget their past sorrows, and a happy life would be sweeter.
The net fishing pavilion is divided into two layers, and there are already five people sitting on the upper floor, Zhang Jiaming, Lao Wei, Daddy Qin, Pang Mulin, plus Yan Wanshan, who has just returned from the front line.
"Grandpa, we have to get together today, you see, I usually only care about busy things, and I, who is a grandson, have never given you a small gift, so I can't take care of your old man, you see, don't blame me for your old man!" Zhang Jiaming is very polite, today he changed into a well-fitting military uniform, he is very powerful, the military rank is not hanging, he himself can't figure out what kind of military rank he is, anyway, it doesn't matter. "Xiansun, look at you, you are serious again, I am an old bone, why do you go back and care about those things? The major affairs of the family and the country and the affairs of the family, I have a clear priority, you look at me, as soon as I am old, there are many problems in my mouth, cough cough. Dad smiled kindly, took a sip of hookah, and continued: "I just have one more thought, I'm not afraid to talk to everyone here!" The old man smiled and didn't let Zhang Jiaming interject. Look, what is this! The old man set up an object, in the golden sunlight, this thing was golden and bright, and all the attention of the big guy was concentrated at once, or Pang Mulin's old eyes were sharp, "Isn't this the longevity lock for the grandchildren?" Are you old? Pang Mulin pretended to be surprised, pointing to the object, but his face was not pretending. Yes, it is a longevity lock, a treasure inherited from my family, and it has been left for future generations since the time of beating the ancestors. "The lock is a completely ancient style, just like the common lock in the Republic of China before, but with a few different places, two strange creatures open their sharp teeth, fiercely separated from the two ends of the lock bite, and their four claws and long tail hook the eight corners of the lock body respectively, forming a strange tone, not like an ordinary lock!" This is what my Miao family Fan Tusi rewarded to my parents, no, after twenty-nine generations, to my generation, it has been ten and thirty-first generations! You all see. The old man happily handed it to Wei Zhongshu in front of him, and several people took turns to check this antique lock, and the voice of admiration kept ringing. Godgrandpa, what kind of idea did you come up with! "Zhang Jiaming is confused, he has been tricked by the old man many times, and he has to be convinced, but he still has to figure it out." What are you panicking about! It's not for you! Although you are my godgrandson! The old man deliberately put on a straight face and pretended to be serious to reprimand Zhang Jiaming, Zhang Jiaming was not annoyed, he smiled and scratched his head, everyone present today is a neighbor, and there is no need to be too restrained.
"I'm here, it's for my great-grandson, Zhang Zhaomiao!" Qin Zaixi's father whetted everyone's appetite, and then the answer was announced! Now everyone has been reminded, that sister-in-law Xiao Li has to be in her stomach, but she already has the flesh and blood of the big leader! No, I'm almost five months pregnant! As soon as the winter is over, the big chief's family will be imported! No, the name has already been decided! As soon as everyone is not proficient in human accidents, there is no need to command, several people stood up and said hello to the big leader again, which made Zhang Jiaming, who was happy to be a father, feel a chill in his heart, it seems that his incompetent father is really easy enough, don't do anything, just care about breeding? Thinking about the little sister who hasn't been confused yet, Zhang Jiaming can't figure out what's wrong with his body, can't! Yan Jin Yanyin is still very satisfied with his ability, and on a few occasions, he has done it no less than ten times in one night! How come it came to the end, his old enemy was pregnant, and his closest relatives did not move! It's not scientific!
Putting aside those complicated thoughts, taking over the congratulations of the people, Zhang Jiaming's face also became better, and ordered a group of people to sit down, and the wine and food were also cooked properly, changing to the previous style, Zhang Jiaming had already asked people to use a big basin to fill those mutated fish and shrimp, this will be a party, of course, it has to be a little more elegant.
After the ten meat dishes and six vegetarian dishes were on the table, it was already three rounds of wine, and everyone's interest was very high, even the thin Yan Wanshan was unwilling to be lowered, as a guest, especially if he was a newcomer, if he wanted to win the appreciation of his boss, it was impossible to just work hard, and he had to make the leader feel comfortable and rest assured plus 10,000 hearts! You can get mixed up, climb to a higher position, the monkey is also a self-familiar master, the good words of the old man are naturally a basket, what kind of people are old and wise, old and strong, the old man is determined to be thousands of miles, and also gave a number of examples to argue that the older people are, the more they should drink to nourish themselves, so that this completely communicative drinking party almost became like an old man's birthday banquet. For Brigade Commander Wei, this monkey didn't mention the sub-word, and shouted one by one, which made the old Wei guy blush, and he didn't know if it was because of alcohol or his own embarrassment! However, for Pang Mulin, this previous contemporary, the two sides are much less polite, after all, everyone is the same general, but for the same reason had to change the hall, changed to the big leader's side, now everyone is on an equal footing, although there is a reason to make friends in front, but in public, everyone is not good to continue to pull the relationship on the previous friendship, two glasses of light wine meaning is enough!
In the middle of the wine, one of the guards hurriedly came upstairs and reported: "Father Christopher asked to see him, and he also brought two civilians!" "Zhang Jiaming is not drunk, he received some information early in the morning, but he didn't feel any surprise, now everyone who should come has arrived, and those who shouldn't come have to meet." Let them all come up, I just have two drinks with the priest! “
Everyone laughed, and everyone knew that the priest rarely touched the local rice wine or other drinks, except for a small amount of wine.
"Thank God you're all here." The priest said very politely, there were two people, a man and a woman, standing behind him, but no one cared about the existence of these two people, and greeted the priest warmly, the woman who came with her looked very disdainful, looked at the wine and food on the table, and whispered something to the gentle-looking man from time to time, these are all things that can't hide from Zhang Jiaming, no matter how small the voice, bit by bit it enters Zhang Jiaming's ears.
arranged tables and chairs for the priest, handed over the dishes and chopsticks, and without waiting for him to speak, Zhang Jiaming was not polite, took a copy of the materials, and handed them to the people present. "Your name is Mo Kui, his name is Li Qingqing, they are all refugees rescued by me Zhang Jiaming, I have read all the appeals you made to the Ministry of Civil Affairs in the gathering place, and I know all the small actions you made in private." Looking at the extremely shocked man and woman in front of him expressionlessly, Zhang Jiaming said slowly: "Those who are here, except for Pang Mulin and Yan Wanshan, basically know what you have done?" Liberal Democrats? What a beautiful name! However, I just don't understand, why do you have the confidence to ask me? Just the two of you who are not afraid of death? And brought Mr. Father Priest along? Hmph, today, you have to explain it to me! Otherwise, don't think about leaving so easily! With a vicious voice, six murderous guards had risen behind the two civilians.
"You want a reason? Well, I'll do it! It can be seen that this girl named Mo Kui is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she immediately broke free from the man who was holding her hand and stood up. The refugees here are all hard-working people who have struggled on the line of life and death, and none of them have endured the unbearable hardships of ordinary people to survive to this day! Now it's hard to live a good life, but you, as the big chief, give them a happy life? Seeing that Zhang Jiaming didn't gnaw, the woman seemed to be encouraged and decided that the other party was at a loss, and continued to speak loudly, just like a famous mouth on a talk show, her hands and feet were trembling with excitement.
"You let your child leave his mother and serve in the army, we can understand it, it's because the man-eaters are still roaming around! You let the workers work overtime and keep loading bullets by hand, and we also support it, for the same reason as before! From coming down from Crab Mountain to recovering the county seat, our people silently support your cause, and many people will not complain even if they are so tired that they faint on the ground and have blood blisters on their hands! We are frugal and offer our own rare rations, just to let the soldiers on the front line have more strength to fight those cannibals! Did the refugees do their best to return to the life they live in slavery today? The woman said forcefully, "Now, for the pace of your expansion, you have begun to make the workers and peasants work desperately again!" Let me ask you, why don't those bullshit Christians do the heavy work, but we, the ordinary people, do the heavy work? Why can the families of Shaomin do all those easy jobs? And we, the Han people, can only unconditionally undertake the most arduous projects? In the face of the woman's aggressive accusations, Zhang Jiaming's face changed, and the man who came with him nervously grabbed Mo Kui's hand and tried to make her stop speaking.
Sure enough, before everyone came back to their senses, the 54-style pistol that Zhang Jiaming had not used for many days appeared in his hand. The woman stopped talking, and there was only a look of fear in her eyes, but her stubborn brows still stood up, without the slightest concession, but the man became frightened and inexplicable, sweating profusely on his head, and the person also became cringe, bowing his head and pulling the corners of the woman's clothes.
"Let me remind you, I'm a person, according to my previous temper, it doesn't matter if you can scold a few words without pain or not, I was thick-skinned at that time!" Zhang Jiaming smiled narrowly, but everyone present was in no mood to laugh with him. The priest stood up even more nervously, but he didn't dare to say anything to persuade him, so he had to grasp the silver cross on his chest and keep looking at Zhang Jiaming, who was uncertain. "Up to now, my family has basically been killed by those cannibals, so I'm left alone, so, my temper is not very good, in the future, you have to remember for me, if you want to negotiate with me, you have to have a gun in your hand!" Surrounding the woman, Zhang Jiaming paced small steps. That terrifying coercion had already frightened all the mortals present, and the monkey with a bad constitution covered his chest and gasped.
"Look, look at how helpless you are right now. Even the priest who brought you here knows what kind of person I, Zhang Jiaming, are! Yes, I hate zombies, they take away my loved ones, and the loved ones of many of you here. Zhang Jiaming withdrew the coercion, which made the crowd breathe a sigh of relief, he was already familiar with this set of tricks! When it came to emotion, Zhang Jiaming's voice became choked, "I rescued the survivors of R County, and also fed the people of Sanmiao!" I am the savior of the people! It is I, Zhang Jiaming, who have achieved today's achievements by relying on continuous progress with one hand and one foot! I'm the one who gave the people you speak of a second life! Zhang Jiaming suddenly changed his tone, and looked at the woman in front of him with extremely sharp eyes!
"You, gave us shackles!" Word by word, Mo Kui stared at Zhang Jiaming without giving in, completely ignoring the cowardly pull of the man behind him.
"But I do give you hope to live! Without me, you'd all be dead! Qin Guangyao, that King Yalu, and that Yang Feifei, those who are through the heavens and the witch Zhu Chaojiu, what can they bring you? Yes? Think about it, can they take you to kill all the zombies that are besieging you? None of them were chased by zombies and didn't even have the courage to look back! Zhang Jiaming's eyes were blood-red, almost panting, and he retorted loudly to Mo Kui.
"You treat the people as your slaves! At the beginning, as you said in Crab Mountain, Qin Guangyao just regarded us as his property, and you came to save us, we believe it! We follow you, but after defeating R County, you have changed, you no longer care about the life and death of the people, you only care about fighting wars and conscription! And then keep fighting, keep conscripting! I sue you, Zhang Jiaming, others call you the big leader, but we Liberal Democratic Party don't think so! Because you have turned your back on the people and gone to the opposite side of the people! The words are loud, the sentences are sonorous and powerful, and there is no room for the slightest refutation, Mo Kui, this seemingly weak woman, the firmness of her heart has been interpreted at this moment, and letting go of the Buddha is not to achieve the goal, even if she is broken, she will take a trip to this troubled water, and she will never give up if she does not try to find out the depth!
Zhang Jiaming was scolded as if he was a defeated rooster, holding his head listlessly, as if he didn't dare to face his mistakes being pointed out by others.
The others looked at everything in front of them nervously, and no one dared to speak out loud, and they were cold. After a long while, Zhang Jiaming stood up straight and ordered slowly: "I have personally heard the demands of the Liberal Democratic Party, and now, on how to solve this problem, I reserve my opinion for the time being, the two of them, temporarily imprisoned, transferred to Hu Kuishan, arrange an ordinary prison for them, and do not abuse or beat them!" Listen carefully, if a hair falls out of their bodies, I will hold Hu Kuishan responsible! I'll give you both an answer in three days! ”
