Chapter 610: Where have you been, Your Excellency? (Fourth update, please subscribe)
In the early morning, the sun rising from the horizon casts a light golden color over the city.
The sun shines through the sparse clouds on the street, and the trees on both sides of the street are also coated with a layer of gold, and they sway gently in the breeze. The glass windows of the distant building reflected dazzling light.
On the street, people are rushing to catch buses and subways. While waiting for the bus at the bus stop, some are standing by the roadside newsstands, browsing newspapers and magazines, wearing straw hats on their heads. When the reporter sees someone passing by, he will shout loudly. Whenever he hears his hoarse shouting, Shi Zhengdong's whole body will shake.
"Read the newspaper, read the newspaper. Take a look at the resolution passed by the United Nations General Assembly, which will assist South Korea..."
The newspaper seller's shout made Shi Zhengdong glance at the newspaper, but it was just a glance. The peninsula... who cares about it?
His understanding of the peninsula was limited to the Sino-Japanese War.
There is no other understanding beyond this. What does it have to do with them? So even though the newspaper sellers were shouting, not many people would care about it at all.
Shi Zhengdong looked at the people around him. These people, like him, are all from Tangshan. Their place of origin is different, but now they look the same. Most of the men wear white or light blue shirts, khaki or light gray or blue trousers, tied very narrowly. Tie, leather shoes, looks like he is in a hurry.
They were walking there and talking happily to each other. Shi Zhengdong somewhat understood what they were talking about - tomorrow was the weekend. Judging from their facial expressions, they were talking about trivial things: some were talking about how to spend the weekend, such as where to go fishing, while others were talking about ballet performances or operas and concerts on the weekend. . Of course, more people will talk about what movies they should watch tomorrow or where to go.
All they talk about is life, or how to make life more comfortable. For example, the person who just passed by him was saying that he had just ordered a Wuling Bingo - half a month ago, this car priced at 502 yuan was welcomed by the market as soon as it was launched.
In just half a month, more than 30,000 orders have been received. For Nanyang, this is the real atomic bomb - everyone will have their own car!
This was unimaginable in the past. After all, for many people, cars belong to the rich, and they are also the kind of very rich rich. Ordinary rich people cannot afford them. of.
But what about now?
It’s like a dream that everyone can buy one for only a few hundred yuan.
But this dream is real. Company employees can even buy a car with only 10 months' salary!
This is the life of ordinary Nanyang people!
They are all ordinary people, working in companies, walking on the streets, going to cafes to drink coffee, going to restaurants to eat, going to cinemas to watch movies, watching performances in theaters, and being treated in clinics Disease - they are all ordinary people, living an ordinary life.
Even though a war has broken out thousands of kilometers away, few of them are worried.
No one here is frowning or depressed, and no one - judging from their expressions - doesn't care at all about what is happening abroad.
"This is the life of ordinary people."
Shi Zhengdong thought in his heart. They cannot see things beyond their immediate eyes and lack the ability to foresee the future. But this is just ordinary people, and the prospects they look forward to are all personal lives.
"All people are working hard for a better life, nothing more..."
Shi Zhengdong thought this way, everything they did was just for a better life. Life - all dreams, ideals, and even all human beings are so weak and powerless when faced with the life they imagine...
Thinking of this, Shi Zhengdong frowned, Because for a moment he had strange emotions. He thought that after he came to the Lord, his ideas seemed to be constantly changing...
Should I feel frustrated?
Shi Zhengdong couldn't help but feel a little dazed. At this moment, the bus came. The moment the bus entered the station, he got on the bus like many others. When the bus left the station, he walked towards I glanced out the car window and saw that everyone was in the same hurry.
Tomorrow is the weekend, but everyone is still working hard today. Other than that, there is no big deal.
As for what world and what major events, what does it have to do with them?
Everything is decided by the person who lives in the Grand Commander's official residence. Fortunately, this country has a very excellent Grand Commander.
"The commander-in-chief is currently not in the capital. He has been conducting inspections abroad."
Once again, the US Ambassador to Nanyang, Kirk, received such an answer.
“Really, did he do it on purpose?”
After the meeting with the Foreign Minister of Nanyang, Kirk almost subconsciously thought that Li Yi’an was deliberately avoiding him, or that , deliberately avoid.
“Is he trying to avoid responsibility?”
Kirk said this on the way back to the embassy. But he later denied it.
"No, he can be said to be the most reliable ally of the United States in Asia, how could he refuse to join it?"
"Mr. Ambassador, I think it may be difficult for us to convince him. He participated in the United Nations operation. "
As an old Nanyang, Major Frank said straightforwardly.
"As we all know, Li behaves like a businessman most of the time. He will never participate in anything without profit."
Benefit!
The reason why Nanyang has a very good relationship with the United States is, to put it bluntly, because of interests. All things like reliability and friendship are empty, and what really matters is always interests! "I know that that guy always only has interests in his eyes."
Ambassador Cork said.
“Nonetheless, we must try to get more countries to participate in this matter. Only in this way can we prove to the world that all this is done under the banner of the United Nations, not the United States itself. ! ”
When talking about the United States itself, the black-rimmed glasses on Ambassador Cork's face reflected the sunlight outside the car window, and the two swaying eyes behind the lenses shone brightly. He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.
"Even if they only send one infantry company, it shows one thing - they are involved in the affairs of the United Nations."
Where are the affairs of the United Nations? It's clearly an American thing. It is time to repay the support the United States has given to Nanyang over the past few years.
In the past few years, Nanyang has received a lot of aid from the United States, and now it is time to repay it.
Is U.S. aid so easy to obtain?
There is definitely a price to pay.
However, the troublesome thing now is that the guy is not in Chang'an at all!
"But the problem is that he is not in Chang'an now."
Frank shrugged helplessly and said.
"Even if we knew his whereabouts, we would not be able to follow him, find him, explain this to him, and hope that he sends his army."
"It doesn't seem impossible."
Coker said,
"Now, do we know where he is?"
Coker, as ambassador to Nanyang , very much hoping to prove its capabilities to Washington by persuading Nanyang to participate, and of course to strengthen the American team.
But now, he doesn't even know where that guy is going.
He must urge Nanyang to participate in this matter as soon as possible, so it is not impossible to catch up, as long as he can be included.
“We don’t know much about this. According to the current official reports, he is in sight of the plantation. You know, Mr. Ambassador, the plantation area in Nanyang is very large. Which city and region is he in? We don’t know, even if we know where he is today, maybe by the time we catch up, he will have already arrived in another place. Plantations are not cities. There are tens of thousands of plantations in Nanyang, and he is even rich! Maybe he flew to Dongning, who knows. In such a big country, he could appear anywhere at any time."
Speaking of this, Frank seemed a little helpless. Speaking of Nanyang, the land area is only more than one million. Square kilometers may not seem big, but it is obviously impossible to catch up with one person.
“I know it’s not easy to catch up with him,”
Coker, who was somewhat reluctant, glanced out the car window. Then, he asked:
"However, maybe we can wait for him halfway. After all, Borneo is a big island. We can wait for him on the other side of the ring road! We can leave immediately."
After a moment's thought, Ke K said.
"We have to let him know that the world needs him now and needs him to contribute to world peace. But we can't make too much noise, so as not to alert the enemy."
The reason why we say this is because As a diplomat, Kirk knows very well that for these countries that receive US aid, they have never been willing to take the initiative to repay the United States.
So we must be more cautious. After the other party learns the news, he will hide it better.
However, he shouldn't be hiding!
“But we must know where to wait for him, right?”
Frank reminded.
"Uh-here, Major, do you know where his next stop will be? It doesn't matter if you don't know, we can chase him all the way."
In the diplomatic circle in Washington Here, Cork is not a very famous guy, and because of this, he needs to do a better job to prove his ability.
At this time, he couldn't even understand what Li Yi'an did. This was obviously a very good opportunity. The United States never treated its allies badly.
How could you just miss it?
So, for the sake of his friends, he needs to catch up with that guy!
