- Chapter 57 Visit
This time Jin Lang only brought two hundred men, not several generals. Salva wanted to manage the port of Antu, and the doctor and Tutankhamun had returned to Arabia, where they were also needed. He went to China under the pretext of a state visit, and crossed the Atlantic Ocean with two purchased cruisers. When sailing to the South China Sea, Jin Lang took a closer look and found that after more than half a year, the south wind seemed to have subsided. He didn't know what the outcome was.
After nearly ten days of voyage, the two warships finally arrived in Port-au-Prince. He still has a deep memory of Port-au-Prince. It was here that he separated from Leah and Shasha and boarded the cruise ship to Italy. From then on, he became a pirate. Career begins.
When they docked, Jin Lang had already changed into a handsome general uniform, and two hundred of his subordinates were also wearing custom-made navy uniforms. Overall, they looked quite powerful. When Jin Lang appeared on the deck, he found that a small welcome ceremony had been arranged on the shore, with dozens of primary school students holding the national flags of China and Somalia. When he stepped into the port, the band played the Somali national anthem. It was actually the first time for Jin Lang to hear the Somali national anthem, and he felt nothing at all.
A pot-bellied official was accompanied by several military representatives who came to greet him. They were all stunned when they saw an Oriental man appearing in their sights. When they saw the Somali general's uniform he was wearing, they couldn't help but feel even more surprised. In their impression, the Somali admiral was the figure who controlled the entire Somali navy, and he should be a black man. However, they did not expect that he was not like that at all. He looked like an ordinary person in China. However, since they are bureaucrats, they naturally know that people should not be judged by their appearance. They suppressed their doubts and greeted him with smiles.
The leading official said with a smile: "Your Excellency, General, welcome your visit. Representative of the Chinese government, Jiang Chengen, pays tribute to you."
As he spoke, the translator next to him spoke in Arabic. When Jin Lang heard that the other party's surname was Jiang, his brows jumped and he vaguely thought of something. Although he could speak Chinese, he still said in Arabic: "I am very grateful to the Chinese government for welcoming me. On behalf of the Somali people, I would like to express my deepest greetings to the Chinese government and hope that the relationship between the two countries will become more friendly" Jin Lang learned I used to see officials on TV saying things that didn't hurt.
Jiang Chengen and Jin Lang expressed to each other the best wishes of the two peoples, and then extended their hands to Jin Lang to introduce the two soldiers who stood up. Only then did Jin Lang understand why China had been weak. It was because the status of military personnel had always been suppressed by bureaucrats. He was a representative of the Somali military. China should also be welcomed by military representatives. Now it seems Nothing like this at all.
After introduction, Jin Lang learned that the two officers were both navy lieutenants. One of them was about forty years old, with a dark face that had been exposed to the weather all year round. He was not tall but very strong. The other one is rather strange. He is about twenty-five or six years old, with fair and tender skin. He does not look like a soldier, but like a playboy. At such a young age, he is also a lieutenant, and when he is a golden When Lang found out that his surname was Jiang, he sneered in his heart.
The black-faced lieutenant saluted Jin Lang with a standard military salute, and said with a serious face: "Hello, Your Excellency, General." After saying this, there was no more words. Jin Lang could tell that he was an honest military man, and he spoke quite well. Not only was Jin Lang not unhappy at all, but he felt that this was a true military gesture.
But the young man next to him had a disdainful smile on his face. He looked at the black-faced lieutenant and Jin Lang, both of whom had no good expressions. He is the new son of the Jiang family. Since Jiang Wei's death, he has taken over. Jiang Wei's position became the new successor.
Jin Lang was obviously aware of the other party's expression, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Sure enough, the Jiang family were all the same.
Seeing that the black-faced lieutenant had finished speaking, the young man also saluted a loose military salute and said softly: "Hello, General, thank you for coming all the way. I am Navy Lieutenant Jiang Jing. I believe your family should be in Somalia." Very powerful, right? Is your mother an Oriental?"
The translator on the side didn¡¯t know how to express it, so he said it briefly. And Jin Lang heard clearly what the other party meant, thinking that like him, he had climbed to a high position by relying on family power. Jin Lang couldn't help but smile and said a few words to the translator.
After translating, his face became a little ugly, and he noticed that the boss was looking over, and he stammered: "The general means that his mother is indeed an Oriental, and thenthen"
"Then what?" Jiang Jing couldn't help but ask.
"Then Your Excellency, General, greets your mother"
Hearing this, the black-faced lieutenant next to him almost laughed out loud, and quickly changed his expression.With an expressionless look. But Jiang Jing and Jiang Chengen looked a little ugly. When they saw the Somali general smiling and nodding towards them, they also understood the cultural and language differences between China and Somalia. Although they felt a little uncomfortable, being greeted by their mothers in broad daylight, they felt The other party had no ill intentions, it was just a greeting. Thinking of this, Jiang Jing and Jiang Chengen's faces became slightly better.
Jiang Chengen quickly smoothed things over and said, "Your Majesty General, our country has prepared a grand state banquet. Please come with us."
Jin Lang nodded after listening to the translator, and followed him to Prince Edward Airport with a group of military officers. He took a special plane to a military airport in the capital, then got into a Chinese-made Hongqi car, and finally arrived at Diaoyutai Country. Hotel.
Chinese people are all about ostentation when drinking. No matter which leader of a small country comes, they will have a big banquet or a small banquet, and they will be received as a country of etiquette. Jin Lang is the same. When he came to the legendary Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, I found that the decoration inside is indeed magnificent, and the combination of modern decoration and retro classics is really great.
Arriving at a huge hall, there were two rows of officials waiting inside. Finally, Jin Lang got the news that several other places were also receiving missions from several countries. This made him start to think about whether each Every place is accompanied by such a bunch of officials? Is it their duty to eat and drink with them?
The hall where Jin Lang stayed was called the Ziwei Hall. The most dazzling thing was the two rows of luxurious sofas and the huge wooden carved screen in front of it. It really had an antique flavor.
People from both parties first had a friendly and harmonious meeting, and several cameras followed and filmed the entire process. The representative from China is a deputy minister with gray hair and looks quite energetic. When the other party started to speak, Jin Lang realized that he was so inexperienced. He had already been honed by the magic stick to have a sharp tongue, but when he saw the other party's continuous long speech when he started to speak, he was so confused. Discuss the cooperation and future prospects between the two countries in governance and economy. Jin Lang occasionally said a few words that were both salty and mild, and in the end the two sides reached a consensus of "good neighborliness, friendship and peaceful coexistence". However, Jin Lang didn't understand what substantive issues he said and how he summarized this consensus. He's also confused
Finally, the reporters withdrew, the two white doors next to them opened, and the state banquet began. As for what a state banquet is like, Jin Lang finally understood. Anyway, it is the feeling that one meal in this life will not be in vain. Seeing the Chinese officials' accustomed expressions, Jin Lang could only sigh in admiration.
Jin Lang himself was pretty elegant, but his subordinates who were pretending to be officers were really embarrassing. They looked like they were reincarnated by starving ghosts, gorging themselves on everything they caught, and kept giving thumbs up. He expressed his respect to the officials opposite, but it was not their fault. Even Jin Lang was impressed when he saw the standard of the state banquet, let alone these pirate men who had been poor all their lives.
"When several Chinese officials saw Jin Lang's men eating, they showed a bit of disdain from time to time, as if this state banquet was just a trivial matter to them and was a matter of pride for a big country. It seems that if you can overpower the other party in eating, it is an overall victory.
Jin Lang's eyes flashed and he suddenly smiled: "This state banquet is very rich. China deserves to be an ancient civilization. The country of etiquette is indeed a vast land and rich resources."
When several officials of the Hua Kingdom heard Jin Lang's praise, they couldn't help but be humble. Anyway, they can be summed up in one sentence: This is just a trivial matter.
Jin Lang was very happy when he saw these gangsters with pig brains. He also smiled and said: "Do the people in your country also eat these 'trivial things' every day?"
As soon as Jin Lang said this, the expressions of many officials who had looked superior just now froze at the same time. Jin Lang looked at everyone with a sneer in his heart, and he had already cursed in his heart. When did these foodies think about what the people at the bottom eat every day?
Suddenly, the eyes of an official accompanying the state banquet lit up, and he lowered his head and said something to the deputy minister next to him. The deputy minister glanced at him appreciatively, and then repeated to the translator: "Tell him, we Chinese people are the ones who endure the most hardships. As a hard-working nation, state banquets are mostly prepared for foreign guests. As for what the Chinese people eat, that is not our concern."
After the translator said the original words, Jin Lang was already trembling with anger, but he pretended to understand.
At this time, one of Jin Lang's men who was really eating hard suddenly raised his head and said, "Why don't you care about what the people eat? Don't the people live just to eat?"
The translator snickered, without even asking for instructions, and replied: "Because we are managers, managing national affairs."
The subordinate continued: "I am also a people, why do I feel that eating is the top priority?"
The translator¡¯s expression suddenly changedIt was so hard to look at, as if he had remembered something, and he no longer spoke so confidently.
The deputy minister next to him turned around and asked, "What are they talking about?"
The translator whispered a few words, and the deputy minister suddenly sneered vaguely and whispered: "What a bunch of rubes, we are not you, you are the people, we are not." He thought that Jin Lang and others could not understand Chinese, so Without much concealment, other officials couldn't help but smile when they heard the deputy minister's words.
Jin Lang has even become a little numb. He understands that maybe not every official thinks this way, but at least some officials have long forgotten the word "people" in their minds.
Finally, a state banquet ended, and it ended perfectly in a harmonious atmosphere.
In the next few days, in addition to visiting several military bases in China, Jin Lang continued to have large and small banquets until several of his subordinates were almost tired of eating. Finally, the official visit came to an end. Jin Lang said that he wanted to wander around and see the scenery of China, but he did not expect that Jiang Jing volunteered to arrange the itinerary for him.
In the evening, Jiang Jing came over and invited Jin Lang to a dance. It was said that they were all famous ladies and beauties in China. He even vaguely expressed that Jin Lang could have an affair. Although Jin Lang didn't want to go, several of his subordinates were very interested in the affair, so Jin Lang had no choice but to take his subordinates to participate.
The venue for the dance is the Imperial Hotel, which can be said to be the hotel with the highest star rating in the country. It is also a place frequented by bigwigs from officialdom and shopping malls.
When Jin Lang came to the dance party wearing a chic and handsome general uniform, he finally understood what an event was for the upper class. The room was full of tall, rich, handsome, fair and beautiful people, especially the ladies who had their chests pulled down lower than the others, as if it meant that it would be better not to wear any clothes.
As soon as Jin Lang entered the venue, he attracted a lot of screams and winks, and the whispers of women kept coming to his ears.
"Very cool"
"General"
¡¡
Jin Lang pretended not to understand and faced everyone with a smile, but he didn't have a good impression of these women in his heart. They were just a bunch of people who only looked at their clothes, and they might have been used by others many times. On the contrary, several of his men looked like pigs, looking sharply at the white fields. In places where Islam is prevalent in Somalia, there are very strict requirements for women's clothing. How had they ever seen such openness? Dress up like that.
However, a large number of ladies were not shy about the lustful looks of a few black men in military uniforms. Instead, they looked for targets one by one, smiling coquettishly and twisting their waists from time to time, as if they were nakedly seducing.
Not long after, the lights in the venue dimmed and the dance began
From time to time, famous ladies would come over to chat with Jin Lang, and many of them spoke fluent Arabic. They were indeed worthy of the title of social butterfly. However, Jin Lang just declined one by one. In the end, the number of women who came to chat with him gradually decreased. Instead, several of his men began to show off their dirty tricks on a few women.
Jin Lang was sitting silently drinking wine when he suddenly saw Jiang Jing walking over with a few old men.
"Your Excellency General, I would like to introduce you to some friends." Jiang Jingke didn't understand Arabic and relied entirely on the translator around him.
Jin Lang nodded with a smile and looked at a few old men.
Jiang Jing smiled and said: "These are directors of several large shipping companies in China. They want to talk to you about something."
Jin Lang knew what he was going to talk about without even thinking about it, but he still said: "Please speak."
Sure enough, several old men began to talk about the problem of the toll station in the Gulf of Aden, hoping that Jinlang could give them discounts, and they were also filial, either giving women or jewelry. Jin Lang always smiled and said nothing.
