239. Dinner with peacekeepers
Even though the atmosphere was so warm, the officers and men of the peacekeeping force still strictly observed discipline and did not drink alcohol, and everyone paid tribute to each other with tea instead of wine.
"Brother Chen, when are you going to return to China?" Yang Tianlong asked with a smile.
Chen Liyan smiled and told him that he had a ticket the day after tomorrow.
"It's a bit of a shame that I'm here tomorrow night, but I'll have to stay in Ethiopia for a few days. When he said this, Yang Tianlong's face was full of regret.
Chen Liyan nodded, "It's really a pity, but it's okay, let's meet in Rongcheng then." ”
"Okay, I'll ask you then. Yang Tianlong said with a smile.
"Hey, whoever pleases is the same, you're welcome between brothers. Chen Liyan smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
Liu Shengli is the company's best senior leader with the peacekeeping force, on the one hand, it is related to his experience as a soldier, on the other hand, he is more keen to make friends, compared to Mr. Wang and Mr. Hu, they don't seem to be interested in the military, more are willing to get acquainted with local powerful figures, as for Li Zhengqing, not to mention, on the way here, Liu Shengli told Yang Tianlong that Li Zhengqing often does not come to the company once in half a month, according to his private understanding, that guy has built several mines in Lubumba.
"Lao Liu, I can't drink with you today, why don't you drink some by yourself?" Zhang Weidong asked with a smile.
Liu Shengli laughed and said: "Team Zhang, what you said is as if you had drunk with me before, and the political commissar was also present, what you said is very ambiguous." ”
Seeing that this guy was picking out some words, Zhang Weidong couldn't help laughing, "You old Liu, set up a trap for me." ”
Liu Shengli laughed again, "I don't drink the wine, my old Liu toasts the two chiefs with tea instead of wine, and I wish you a smooth work, good health, and step by step." ”
......
The meal didn't end until almost ten o'clock, and after Zhang Weidong and they sent Yang Tianlong and Liu Shengli to the gate of the camp, and said goodbye reluctantly, Yang Tianlong and they drove away.
From the camp of the peacekeeping troops to Liu Shengli's company, there are basically country roads, and many villages are not electrified, so Yang Tianlong basically turned on the headlights and went straight to the front along the way.
After sending Liu Shengli back to the company, he politely refused Lao Liu's invitation to drink tea, and Yang Tianlong drove towards the villa area alone.
Since he was traveling along the Congo River, Yang Tianlong had to pass through Brad's shipping company, and he had also learned that sometimes Brad would not return home until late when he was busy.
At the door of the shipping company, Yang Tianlong stopped the car, and after thinking about it, he decided to go in and have a look.
Because he remembers that Brad told him that the guy with the skull tattoo lived in the company.
Although it was already more than 11 o'clock in the evening at this time, it was very busy in Brad's company, it turned out that they had recently organized a batch of goods to be transported to South Sudan, and the other party had a relatively urgent time, so this overnight work has become the norm.
After some inquiry, the company employee told him that Mr. Brad had not yet left work and was working at the dock site.
When he came to the dock, he saw Brad wearing a hard hat and holding a walkie-talkie directing the operation on the spot.
Seeing that it was him coming, Brad hurriedly handed over the command in his hands to his subordinate employees.
"Hey, Huaxia Dragon, why are you here?" Brad smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Come and have a look. Yang Tianlong smiled slightly, "I've been very busy lately." ”
Brad nodded, "It's busy, but it's okay, it's fulfilling." ”
"All the employees are working overtime?" Yang Tianlong said with a smile.
Brad nodded, "That's right, including that guy." ”
"Where is he?" Yang Tianlong asked with considerable interest.
"In the office, I'll take you to meet you. Brad said very seriously.
After thinking about it, Yang Tianlong decided to follow Brad to meet the guy.
With Brad's guidance, he soon arrived at the office.
I saw that the man named Harry was sorting out the information in front of the computer.
As soon as he saw that it was the boss Brad coming in, Harry quickly got up and said with a respectful face: "Hello boss." ”
"How's the data organized?" asked Brad with a smile.
"Almost, it should be over in half an hour. Harry said honestly.
"Okay, you've done a great job. Brad patted Harry on the shoulder.
Harry's body was very thin, and when he was slapped by Brad's big hand, his body couldn't help but sink.
"When it's over, let's have a late-night snack together. Brad continued.
Harry shook his head, "Boss, I'm a little unwell, so it's okay to eat supper, but thank you anyway." ”
"Don't let you drink. Brad said with a smile.
"Recently, I've been staying up late, and my health is a little poor. Harry said as he propped up his black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, looking weak.
"Okay, then you pay attention to your body, and when you're done, you can rest quickly. Brad admonished.
Harry nodded, "Thank you, boss." ”
Yang Tianlong didn't say a word throughout the whole process, and completely stood in the position of Brad's friend.
Walking out of the office and seeing that there was no one around, Brad couldn't help but ask, "Hey, man, does that kid look like a member of the Skull and Bones Party?"
Yang Tianlong thought for a while and shook his head calmly, "I don't know, but judging from his performance, it doesn't feel like that kind of person." ”
"I hope not. Brad smiled bitterly, "Let's go, man, I'll treat you to supper." ”
"What to eat?" Yang Tianlong asked with a smile.
Brad thought for a moment, "How's the pizza?"
"No problem. ”
"Okay, then you wait for me, I'll go drive now. After saying that, Brad couldn't help but stretch, "I've been working continuously lately, but I'm tired." ”
Taking advantage of Brad's time to pick up the car, Yang Tianlong couldn't help but look at the office where Harry worked.
There were no curtains in the office, and the lights inside were quite bright, so Harry's figure quickly caught his eye.
I saw that after Harry put the information box, he quickly took out his mobile phone......
By feeling, Yang Tianlong knew that Harry was taking pictures.
As for what to shoot, he had no way of knowing.
"Hey, man, what's the fuss?" As Yang Tianlong stared intently at Harry in the office, Brad drove up to him in a small car.
"Oh, nothing. Yang Tianlong smiled embarrassedly, then quickly opened the car door and drove out of the shipping company after Brad's car.
The pizzeria introduced by Brad is said to be one of the most authentic in the area, and many crooked nuts working in Kinshasa will come to visit, so when they come to this pizzeria, even if it is almost early in the morning, there are many crooked nuts enjoying the delicious pizza in the store.
Ordering a good meal, the two soon chatted again, talking about the recent security situation in Kinshasa, Brad was also very touched, he told Yang Tianlong that recently, he often saw groups of black-clothed people wandering in front of Huaxiaren's company or store in the middle of the night, as for the skin color of those black-clothed people, because the night was too dark, he couldn't see clearly.
"Man, I'm always driving cautiously, for fear of messing with them. Brad laughed at himself.
"So drive more carefully at night. Yang Tianlong smiled and said, "Old man, have you heard of the Fuqing Gang?"
"Watt?" Brad looked surprised, and when Yang Tianlong repeated it to him again, Brad still shook his head, "I haven't heard of this, but judging from the name, it should be a gang or association of your Huaxia people." ”
"That's right. Yang Tianlong said with a smile.
"I haven't really heard of the Fuqing Gang, but I've heard of the skinhead gang, the mafia and the trio, these are all criminal organizations that have emerged in Kinshasa in recent years, and I don't know if they have anything to do with those countries. Brad said with a serious face.
"How are you Ying people doing business in Kinshasa? Have you been troubled?" Suddenly, Yang Tianlong asked about this topic.
Brad was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "The newcomers will definitely be troubled, but it's nothing when we get used to it, those guys are still very bullying and afraid of the hard, you see I'm such a tall man, few of those blacks dare to mess with me." ”
The meaning of Brad's words is very simple, that is, force decides everything, which is why Xiucai meets soldiers, and it is unreasonable to explain.
Although he had some doubts about what Harry did just now, Yang Tianlong still didn't tell Brad about it.
In his opinion, if Harry has a ghost in his heart, according to his current disguise ability, he is definitely a master.
