Chapter 154: Brothers Are Different

Remember [Chinese Network] in one second, and provide you with high-speed text debut. The Burnie Hotel is one of the few skyscrapers in Chinatown, the hotel is located at the easternmost point of Chinatown, so this glass curtain building has not destroyed the overall antique structure of Chinatown, nevertheless, because it has a history of nearly 100 years, it is the first skyscraper built by Western colonists on the east coast of Africa, and now the annual repair cost is not a large amount, and the city council has discussed the relevant issues many times and is ready to demolish it.

In the presidential suite on the floor of the Bernehua Restaurant, Zhang Sheng met Zhou Heng, in addition, there was Zhou Nan who was released on bail and Zhou Nan's girlfriend, a Chinese girl who was also studying in Spain, called Liu Yaqiong, her father is a high-ranking official in China, she has been running around since the day of Zhou Nan's accident, but with little success.

In addition to these three people, there were three or four other people present: a lawyer surnamed Wang, who came from the mainland, who naturally provided them with legal advice; a counselor of the Chinese Embassy in Tambul, surnamed Chen, who was a good friend of Zhou Heng; and Mr. Mak Han Daomai, chairman of the local Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

After greeting each other, everyone entered the restaurant and sat down, and soon the service staff delivered exquisite dishes one after another.

At first, everyone naturally said a few boxes of words to toast together, and the first three glasses of wine were almost all toasted by everyone together, "I wish Mr. Duke a great future", "The Duke and the princess are in good health", etc., after three rounds, they began to toast and talk to each other, and the atmosphere gradually became warmer.

Zhou Heng was told by Mitchell's lawyer that he didn't dare to say too much about the case, although it seemed that his cousin was released on bail because Zhang Sheng contributed, but who knows what he was thinking, if he made a scandal of "bribing" the victim again, it would be even worse.

Lawyer Wang doesn't talk much, although he is a well-known lawyer in China, especially good at handling overseas disputes for the second generation, but he obviously has little say at this table.

After all, if he makes friends with the future husband of the Minister of National Defense, it can bring immeasurable benefits to his work in the embassy, Ambassador Du has proposed to have more contact with the Chinese Minister of Defense at confidential internal meetings, but there are no channels, and there are many examples, Chinese people have gained a certain status in foreign political circles, and almost without exception have to dissociate themselves from China, so it is actually very difficult to contact this duke through diplomatic channels, and it is a godsend in front of him。

Mak Dowham is even more obvious, although he was invited by Counselor Chen to close the relationship between Chinese people, because from a certain point of view, Mak Dowham, like this duke, is a Chinese person who struggles abroad, not to mention that Mak Dowell is also one of the shareholders of the Bernie Var Hotel. But Mak Dohuhan obviously doesn't think so, he is a person with status, so naturally he can't talk about the tide of words, but every sentence almost follows Zhang Sheng's mind to he, the chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Tambul, the famous Mr. Mai in Chinatown, in front of Zhang Sheng, is really insignificant, especially the Chinese official-based thinking is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, in this country that appears to be a monarchy, Mr. Mai feels that the royal family is even higher.

In fact, in Tannik, although the aristocracy has clear provisions in the law to enjoy privileges, but most of them have not been abolished without substance, and the privileges in public life have almost been abolished, for example, last year, Queen Sepnas abolished one of the most important privileges of the nobles, that is, the priority of queuing in public, this law can best reflect the superiority of the nobility before.

What's more, the royal family that follows the Western system, since more than a thousand years ago, has always been very limited in power, the power of the monarch to rule comes from the law, and the will of the monarch does not have the effect of law, which makes it very different from the Chinese emperor.

In modern times, Tannik is a monarchy, and under the framework of the "Charter of Freedom", the embodiment of citizenship is not inferior to that of some democracies, and it is completely different from the real family rule of Saudi Arabia and other countries where the king serves as the prime minister, the crown prince serves as the deputy prime minister, and the deputy crown prince serves as the second prime minister.

However, although Mr. Mak has been in Tannick for more than 20 years, it is obvious that he has not yet adapted to the essence of civil social life, and because of his status and today's occasion, he is not very obvious, but the meaning of stammering and stammering is also full of people.

Zhou Nan drank and ate food with his head bored, looking very depressed, but his attitude towards Zhang Sheng was not as bad as Zhang Sheng imagined, and when Mr. Mai toasted Zhang Shengjiu and talked about the recent renovation of his Sihai Restaurant, hoping that His Excellency the Duke could appreciate the face and try the dishes before the opening, Zhou Nan raised his head and said, "Brother Zhang, how many old Burmese have you collapsed?"

Zhang Sheng was slightly stunned, firstly, he didn't expect him to call himself like this, and secondly, he didn't expect him to ask such a question, shook his head, waved his hand, and said, "There's nothing to boast about, don't talk about this." ”

Zhou Nan said unconvinced: "No, you are a real hero, I am ignorant and offended you, I apologize to you!"

Zhou Heng glanced at Zhou Nan, and sneered in his heart, his cousin was actually really naΓ―ve, and he checked a lot of information after knowing some things about Zhang Sheng, and he really regarded Zhang Sheng as a modern hero, which was inexplicable.

Zhang Sheng smiled and raised his glass: "It's just a misunderstanding, it's all in the wine." ”

Seeing that Zhang Sheng drank it all with Zhou Nan again, Mr. Mai applauded with a smile and said: "The duke is really massive, just like Brother Zhou said, the contemptible people also know some of the duke's past events, when he is a hero, the duke deserves it." ”

Zhou Nan couldn't drink much, his face was a little red after a glass of wine, he filled himself with another glass, and said to Zhang Sheng excitedly: "Brother Zhang, your shooting has nothing to do with me, do you believe it or not?"

Zhang Shengtou: "Of course I believe, how could you have set up a gunman to ambush me in advance? But in the case of the attack, because it was your brother who did it first, even if I didn't pursue it, I still need to prosecute you according to the laws of Tannic, but from the perspective of the consequences, I think you should be able to be given a light sentence, and you are a foreign national, I think in the end the judge will sentence you to deport, at most, plus dozens of hours of social service order, you don't have to mind." ”

Zhou Nan clinked glasses with Zhang Sheng again, drank the wine, and said: "It's nothing to sentence me to squat for a few months, I'm not a thing, and I'm a hero like Brother Zhang, so I don't deserve it?" Brother Zhang, don't mind, I don't dare to say that I don't know each other, but if Brother Zhang thinks that this is a meeting of me, I feel very lucky." ”

Zhang Sheng smiled, drank the wine, and said, "You are too polite." I felt that Zhou Nan was not deliberately showing weakness so insidious, but quite sincere, but he didn't expect that his experience touched him so much, or because his circle was too narrow.
