Chapter 238: The Chinese in Africa (Monthly Pass Update)
Finally came to a convenient place to take a shower, Chen Xing spent thirty minutes enjoying the process of showering with hot water, until Ford knocked impatiently on the door three times, Chen Xing reluctantly came out of the bathroom.
They lived in a poor town in Africa for so many days in 37 degrees Celsius, and they were crowded with hundreds of people on a steamer, making them dirty and smelly.
At such a time, who can refuse to take a comfortable bath? In the four rooms on the second floor, there has been a sound of water rushing to the ground since they moved in.
After Chen Xing came out, he carefully selected a handsome match, and then hesitated with the hair wax...... What else do you need for short hair?
Just spray some perfume. He doesn't use perfume very often, and the first time he went to France to buy a small bottle of Bulgari men's perfume, he hasn't used a fifth of it yet.
However, when he thought that there were medical staff from China who came to Africa to support in the hospital he was about to go to, Chen Xing couldn't help but want to show his best state to meet them, which was also human nature.
Just like Chen Xing said to Hedwig before, if a person doesn't even pay attention to his own image, then why should he expect the person you met for the first time to pay attention to you?
At this time, the water pressure in all rooms becomes smaller and smaller, and this change is very rapid and stops completely within two minutes.
"Why is there no water all of a sudden?" Ford's confused voice came from the bathroom. Chen Xing was also stunned, and then thought about whether the water here was stored in advance, and now the people in the four rooms are using water together, and all the water stored before has been consumed in a short period of time?
He washed for half an hour, which was not a short time. Chen Xing was a little embarrassed, hurriedly walked out, and said to Ford in the bathroom by the way: "Ford, I'll help you ask the boss, you hold on!" If you really can't do it, come out, anyway, I'll go first, and there's no one in the room. I don't know what Ford said later, Chen Xing quickly closed the door.
Desperate cries could be heard from other rooms in the hallway. After going downstairs, Chen Xing saw Professor Nobel and the guide and interpreter chatting on the sofa downstairs.
The equipment is in good condition, and the personnel have no problem except for some fatigue, and they can start work on time tomorrow.
So now is the most relaxed time for Nobel these days, so three people who know Africa very well are chatting with each other about the customs of this land.
Seeing Chen Xing go downstairs, Mr. Almo, the translator who came by boat with them, made a very strange voice, and then said: "It's the first time I've found out that our Chen is so handsome, aren't you afraid of being caught by the African black girls to be your husband when you go out like this?" ”
"Huh?" Chen Xing, who walked downstairs with his head held high and confident, looked at him with wide eyes. Is there still such a tradition in Africa?
"Hahaha!" Both the guide and the director laughed. Several people knew where Chen Xing was going, and then the guide said in English to a black bodyguard at the door: "Please send this gentleman to the Sultan United Hospital, and I will pay you a good sum for it." Nobel said: "Chen, after you go over, see if there are any patients worth photographing, you can not come back at night, but keep in touch with the phone." "Chen Xing was a little speechless, I'll go over to see the situation, why do you say that I seem to go clubbing?
"I'll be back in the evening." Chen Xing said. With the leadership of the black bodyguard, there is no need for Chen Xing to find his way.
Judging whether the security of a country or region is good or not, in fact, you don't need to look at too many things, just pay attention to whether the bodyguards in this place have guns in their hands, and the bodyguards in places with a high degree of danger are definitely armed with guns.
The black bodyguard is called Bobo, and his name is a little cute, but he is a man who is 1.7 meters tall and has a somewhat vicious appearance.
Go to make a proper middle and lower class villain. But for the gold owner, his attitude is very good.
"Boss, it only takes twenty minutes to walk from here to the hospital, or we can take a car, the cost of hiring a car should be cheap for you, and the time can be shortened to five minutes."
"Safer in the car?" Chen Xing asked.
"Actually, it's all the same, foreigners who come to us are safe, and there are very few crimes against foreign tourists in the city." Chen Xing nodded.
This shows that the country is more tolerant of foreigners, unlike France, where the police of ordinary tourists do little to no avail, unless the tourist also asks the consulate of the country where he is located.
"Then let's walk over, it's still early." The streets of Sudan's capital are bustling, with dry red earth filled with open-air stalls selling timber, seafood, donkeys selling fruit, or scrapping copper.
There are even people who get haircuts on the street. Clothes, furniture, doors and windows...... A street is filled with all sorts of things, and the shoppers are exposed to the scorching sun, and the crowds are surging, filling the gaps between the stalls.
Black women like to wear colorful clothes, or red and purple in China, and from a distance, it looks like countless colorful rivers come from all directions, emerging with strong vitality.
Chen Xing couldn't help but raise the camera he had just gotten in his hand. Using the lens to record the scene in front of him is Chen Xing's photographic concept.
The black bodyguard Bobo was very faithful to guard Chen Xing's side, there were many passers-by in the most lively section, and he also helped Chen Xing squeeze out a space, and Chen Xing was also happy, so as not to be covered with stinky sweat after getting the hospital.
He finally understood why Europeans and Americans liked perfumes. Because only regions with a large body odor will rely so much on perfume.
If Africans also start to pursue fashion and the economy becomes more developed, it is expected that they will also be eager for perfumes that can change the smell of their bodies.
Chen Xing also felt that the security here was really good. He held the camera and occasionally held it up to shoot, and the local people were very cooperative, not minding Chen Xing to point the camera at them.
After filming a person, the person from a clothing store next door also waved at Chen Xing, signaling Chen Xing to pat him, and then, before Chen Xing finished filming, someone squeezed to Chen Xing's side and said, "You pat me too!" "This went on several times.
In the end, Bobo saw that Chen Xing was a little impatient, so he quickly blasted everyone away. I have to say that Bobo is qualified as a bodyguard, and he is a person who can capture the boss's mind, even if he doesn't work as a bodyguard, he should be able to mix well as an assistant or any other profession.
Walking through this crowded bazaar, the hospital is close at hand. Sudan's largest hospital still looks very decent, and after entering the gate, there is a long boulevard, and then the outpatient building, Chen Xing can see Chinese, Arabic, and English on the sign that guides the way.
The style of the building is a bit like the county hospital in Huaxia, but it is very rare to see a hospital with different departments in a poor place like Sudan.
He had expected to see people of the same color as him as soon as he entered the outpatient building, but apparently, there were only a few compatriots in this hospital, and more of them were locals.
Seeing a group of black girls in white nurse uniforms passing in front of him, Chen Xing didn't mention how disappointed he was. On one side of the outpatient lobby there is a blue advertisement showing all the departments and floors of the hospital.
There are only a few basic departments here, and there are no refined departments such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and the general surgery and dermatology departments here are very strong, occupying a separate floor.
"Huh? It's really strange today, are you also from Huaxia? A voice came from behind Chen Xing, a very nice voice, and when he turned around, he saw a short-haired girl with her hands in the pocket of her white coat.
Speak Chinese? Chinese people! The code was right, Chen Xing nodded happily and said, "My friend told me that my fellow countryman is here, and I will come over after dropping off my luggage at the hotel, you are here to support the construction of Africa?" ”
"Sort of." She nodded too. But he was soon attracted by Chen Xing's appearance. It's not an infatuation, and it's not about love.
Just like Chen Xing stayed with Ford in Africa for a long time, he was excited to hear that there were girls from China here, it is an instinct in the human body that longs to communicate with the same kind.
Chen Xing coughed lightly and said, "Hello." ”
"Ah, excuse me, hello, aren't you with the two girls who came before?"
"No, they're tourists from China?" The female doctor hummed and replied, "Well, I just came from Egypt and met robbers on the way. "Foreigners are naturally safe in Sudan's cities, but if they go outside, for some outlaws who dare to take risks, it is a big fat sheep, and if they catch one at random, the money they earn is enough for them to spend a long time.
Chen Xing was a little worried when he heard the news, and asked, "Then, are they injured?" ”
"I lost a sum of money, I was a little injured, haha, don't worry, by the way, you're here?"
"We came to Sudan to make a documentary, and I came to see it in advance." The female doctor suddenly realized, "Oh...... I know, French TV, we received the news last month, "Knowing that Chen Xing's visit this time is related to their hospital, the doctor's attitude towards Chen Xing immediately changed."
The doctor has two faces to friends and patients, although she was very polite to Chen Xing before, she actually regarded Chen Xing as a patient who came here to see a doctor, but now, she is barely a colleague.
"So you're French?" She asked, a little curious.
"Born under the red flag, raised under the red flag, serious Chinese people."
"Haha, what do you want to see, I'm just idle now, can I show you, what's your name?"
"Chen Xing."
"My name is Tang Aiqing." Tang Aiqing had just gotten off work, and he was going to go back to catch up on the drama, but since he met someone who came to shoot a documentary here, he took him around by the way, anyway, he was familiar with this hospital.
She glanced at Chen Xing again. It shouldn't be because he's handsome, right? I'm not such a superficial person...... Chen Xing thought for a moment and asked, "Our film crew will come over tomorrow, I'm just here to visit casually, if I can, can I go and see those two tourists?" ”
"Yes, they're not bad." The world's travelers are one family. Countless people are doing this thing in tourism, but few people can enter the circle of tourism, and the world's travelers are a family, which is the default truth in this small circle.
After Chen Xing joined Honeycomb, he had a group of travel bloggers, and he could be regarded as a person in the travel circle.
When I heard that my traveler was in danger, I wanted to go and see it and ask about the situation. Tang Aiqing took Chen Xing upstairs, this hospital only has stairs and no elevator, from the style of the corridor, it looks a bit like the kind of hospital in a period drama, it is not very bright, and the blue bricks on the wall feel very solid.
Chen Xing chatted casually: "When did you come over?" ”
"I came to Africa at the end of last year to support for a year, what about you? You are a Chinese, and you don't look very old, why did you go to French television? ”
"I studied photography in Paris, and the director of the documentary was my teacher, so he took me here for a while, and it was just an experience." Tang Aiqing nodded and asked again, "Then I guess you are 22 years old." ”
"Pretty much."
"Haha, I knew it...... It's here. "This is the fourth floor, and there are two words written on the stairs. Chen Xing suddenly thought of the scene of a broken person jumping up and down the stairs in his heart, laughed, and said: "A hospital without an elevator, the orthopedic department is actually on the fourth floor, why do I think it's a little unreasonable?" ”
"We also think it's unreasonable, and when we react with the local government, they always say that the new hospital is being repaired, or prevaricate with other messages, anyway, our domestic medical staff have only come for a year, at most two years, and I know they are waiting for us to leave."
"And then? I guess I'm going to send someone over, right? ”
"Then I'll say it all over again." As he spoke, he arrived at the door of the ward, the door was open, and there were three beds inside, and both of them were empty, only the middle bed was occupied, and a girl who looked to be 25 years old was lying on it, her right leg was hanging up, and there was a long black straight bed sitting by the window.
I feel a little younger than the one in bed. They scolded people indignantly, and the doctor brought a handsome guy in, and both of them instantly became ladies.
Tang Aiqing said: "Does it still hurt? ”
"It's kind of ...... But I don't feel much anymore. Luo Li looked at the handsome guy's face, and she couldn't feel any pain.
In ancient times, the male scraped the bones to cure the poison, and now I Luo Li looks at the handsome guy to relieve pain, and the world line is closed! Chen Xing said: "I am also a travel friend, and I heard that Dr. Tang said that you were robbed when you traveled here, so I wanted to come and see you." However, it seems that you are all in good spirits...... huh."
"No, no!" Kuro Nagazhi began to quibble.
"yes, alas, I was robbed of a lot of money, and I was a little depressed." Tang Aiqing had an emmm expression.
You weren't like this before, you changed your face when you saw a handsome guy, are you from Sichuan Province?
"Dr. Tang!! Dr. Tang!! Someone suddenly shouted in the corridor, Tang Aiqing looked outside, and was immediately grabbed by a little nurse, the little nurse hurriedly came over, and said in surprise: "Fortunately, you didn't leave, hurry, there is a patient on the first floor." Tang Aiqing was a little speechless, checked his equipment, nodded and prepared to go down.
Looking back, the little nurse was leaning against the door and looking inside. Hurriedly went over and took her hand and walked up the stairs.
Come over here and get you!
