I Really Didn’t Want To Make A Lot Of Money

At the conference center, the Minister of Transportation is still speaking.

The survey of such a major project is of extraordinary significance to the transportation sector in Angola. The Minister of Communications very much hopes that this project can be done well, which will be a great achievement for him.

The contractor that Miranda helped choose looks very good now. The Minister of Transportation is in a good mood, and the divergence of his speech is a bit uncontrollable. When he got to the back, he simply put the manuscript aside.

The interpreter next to him couldn't read according to the translated manuscript. He suddenly became nervous and kept pushing up his eyes that hadn't fallen. The translation speed dropped significantly. Instead, he gave the Minister time to ponder his words and sentences.

In Chen Ling's absence, Miranda's mind was not here anymore. She waited left and right, unable to wait for Chen Ling's reply to the text message, and suddenly felt that the groundbreaking ceremony was meaningless.

Her main purpose today is not this ceremony, but to give Chen Ling an agreement at this ceremony. Without this agreement, she thinks that the ritual's fineness will be reduced by more than half, and she will not come.

The agreement was finally reached, but Chen Ling was not there. The fineness of the ceremony was almost zero.

So, she sent another text message to Chen Ling: "Not fun!"

Like many young women, whether it is fun or not, this is a very serious question!

In that remote base, Xu Jinghua and Chen Ling were sitting on chairs under a phoenix tree and talking. The others stood far away, even though they could not understand Chinese.

"When I was a teenager, I left China and went to work in Europe. After serving dishes in Europe for more than a year, I learned Portuguese food and met some Portuguese friends. I heard from my friends that business in Africa is good. I did it and made good money. I came to Angola and met the current president on the day I landed. He was running for his life that day. I saved him and hid it under my bed. Then he said he wanted to I will work with him to keep me prosperous and wealthy."

"At that time, Miranda was not born yet. I have been helping his father in the war, helping him find all kinds of weapons and food, supporting him in winning the civil war, and Angola has found peace."

"When Miranda was born, the conditions were much better. It was delivered by a Portuguese doctor in the best hospital in Luanda at the time. I was with her father in the hospital that day, and spent a day and night with her."

"Although she is a girl, his father raised her as a successor. It's just that she has gone a little bit in the past few years. She has been seen in both political and business terms, and she has done too many things. And his father also Gradually changed my mind."

"Mr. Chen, what I want to tell you is due to this change. Miranda has outstanding ability. There is no doubt about it, but maybe because she is still young, she appears sharp and aggressive. This is very unfavorable in politics. The character, because politics has always been to unite a group of people and attack a group of people. You can’t be strong against everyone.”

Chen Ling nodded. He himself has a relatively mild personality and has never liked strong people. The security system on his body also seems to follow his character, usually silent, and will only launch a counterattack when he encounters an attack.

Of course, so far, Chen Ling has not felt strong characteristics in Miranda.

"Perhaps, she has an extraordinary family background, so this feature won't be a problem." Chen Ling guessed.

Xu Jinghua has been in Angola for so many years, with an extraordinary status, and far more experience and experience than Chen Ling, so Chen Ling speaks with a little bit of enlightenment.

Xu Jinghua smiled and said, "Yes, if her father is always in position, there will be no problem, even her bonus points."

Chen Ling was very surprised when he heard the meaning of his words, and asked, "His father has been on the throne for so many years, will he abdicate?"

In African countries, it is very common for a president to be in office for ten or twenty years. There are only two end points in life for a president who came to power during the national liberation period. One is being beaten to death by a coup or fleeing abroad, and the other is being president to die of old age.

Judging from the current situation in Angola, the probability of the first situation occurring is too small, because the ruling party in Angola is too strong and united to the outside world. So, is there a third situation in Angola?

Xu Jinghua raised his eyes and looked around before whispering: "There is no definite statement, but the possibility is very high. The people in this world are the same. It is easy to share the difficulties, and it is too difficult to share the blessings. Miranda is here. The two political and business terms are too deeply involved. If her father abdicates in the future and others are elected, Miranda will definitely be retaliated against."

These words lightly disappeared in the air, but if they were spread out, they would shock the entire Angola and even all the Portuguese-speaking countries.

Although Chen Ling is not familiar with Angola, he understands the importance of the matter and his face is solemn. Xu Jinghua is the president’s closest comrade-in-arms. He would say it like this. In fact, he is basically certain that the current head of state of Angola will not engage in lifelong tenure.

"Do you want to remind Miranda?" Chen Ling asked.

Xu Jinghua sighed and said, "I don't know if this is destiny. Don't say it is her, even me, an outsider, I can't bear to write things that I have already got. Therefore, reminding is useless. , And, in fact, she knows everything."

At this time, Chen Ling received a "not fun" text message from Miranda. Chen Ling suddenly appeared in front of Chen Ling, the last princess who was ruined in the country and her family was ruined.

He wrote back to Miranda: "Wait for me."

Xu Jinghua continued: "Mr. Chen, Angola will have no problems in the next few years. Miranda is your friend, and I can do my best. So in Angola, you can do it with confidence. However, I still There is an experience-don’t concentrate everything in one country."

Chen Ling also understands this and said: "It makes sense. There are so many Africa and so many countries. The east is not black and the west is black, and the same is not bright in the east and bright in the west. I don't have this problem for the time being."

Xu Jinghua nodded: "That's good. As a Chinese, I can get it in Angola now, and people from all walks of life will give me face. However, I can't live without Angola anymore. Leaving here, I lose too much. Many, my brothers have lost too much and cannot afford it."

Chen Ling took a look at the time and said, "Okay, thank you very much for the good words of the boss. I have learned a lot."

"Don't dare, Mr. Chen is young and promising, magnanimous, I admire Xu Jinghua very much." Xu Jinghua's attitude is very low, "In Sierra Leone, you let me live, and in Luanda, you save me from being ruthless and unjust. People, this kind of great kindness, I will continue Jinghua to never forget."

Under the pavilion-like phoenix tree, representatives of Chinese people in Africa in different eras shook hands and said goodbye. Angola is about to usher in the golden age of Chinese people.

The previous generation was in Africa and could only live in a corner, while this generation was in Africa, "I want it all!"

...

...

The traffic jam in Luanda is very serious. Chen Ling and François have been stuck in the road for almost two hours, hungry.

The ceremony at the conference center had already ended. Two teams of engineers, under the escort of security personnel, drove to the airport and flew to the two ends of the Benguela Railway.

Miranda, a white and pure black girl, is busy with business. After waiting for Chen Ling to come, she has already rushed away angrily. Chen Ling didn't answer the phone.

Chen Ling had to turn into a text message expert, met with her tonight, and promised to accompany Miranda to one of her favorite Portuguese restaurants to enjoy the food, Miranda let him off.

After finally returning to the hotel, Chen Ling and François, hungry and ready to feast, saw a smiling white woman sitting in the lobby.

"Molly?!" Chen Ling was very surprised, "Why are you here?"
