A lifetime of good reputation is ruined in one day! Viscount Ferdinand wanted to die. He had rich experience in diplomacy all his life, but he never thought that he would make such a mistake at such an old age.
fart! This is a physiological behavior that everyone has. Gases produced by food and microbial fermentation in the intestines cannot be held in the body and must have an outlet to be excreted.
There is nothing shameful about farting, but farting is considered an uncivilized thing by the entire human civilization, especially in formal situations, such as diplomatic negotiations, where it is even more taboo.
It's not that a fart can completely break down a negotiation, but that a fart can destroy the atmosphere you have carefully created. The aura of a negotiation may be completely destroyed just by a fart.
Really old diplomats pay great attention to their diet, especially before important negotiations. Their diet is carefully prepared, light and non-greasy, clean and pollution-free, low in salt and water.
This makes sense. The purpose is to prevent farting, diarrhea, frequent urination, etc. during the negotiation, so as to ensure that the entire difficult negotiation can be completed in one go.
How could Ferdinand not understand this? But after being cautious all his life, he made a big joke when he was about to retire.
The people present really couldn't describe the consul's fart... it was... it was so unforgettable.
The whole fart sound changes in tone and is melodious and long. After a single blast, it enters into a five or six second long exhaust sound. Basically, it is bang...a blast sound, and then...a burst of gas hitting the fabric for several seconds. Long sound.
This is really a skill. It is rare for ordinary people to expel such a huge amount of intestinal gas, so this giant fart immediately shocked everyone present.
Of course, what followed the sound was the huge stench. It was really hard for people to describe the smell. Every Chinese officer and soldier present thought they had knocked over Liubiju's stinky tofu vat.
The Europeans at the scene also immediately thought of the famous stinky herring in Northern Europe. It is a terrifying food that all Europeans are shocked by. There are not many people who dare to try it.
With Viscount Ferdinand as the center of the circle, the foul-smelling biochemical shock wave began to spread in a circular shape, making everyone present cover their mouths and noses with nausea.
Everyone, including the French themselves, looked at Consul Ferdinand with horror, and the old diplomat's face was as red as coals.
"I...I, I...ah...where is the toilet!" With no chance to defend himself, Ferdinand felt a cramp in his stomach, like thousands of sharp knives piercing him back and forth. The pain made him hold his tongue and head west. Running in the dark.
The location of the negotiation was not within the town of the fifth stop. The fleet was already far into the river, and both sides of the river embankment were covered with desert and low shrubs.
People saw the old consul running into the darkness, and soon they heard a loud crackling sound behind the dune. Everyone present looked embarrassed.
"Um... Um, why don't you hurry up and help the consul? Why don't you go find a doctor!" Jason covered his mouth and said to the dumbfounded Frenchman. At this time, the military attachés and soldiers suddenly realized and rushed away despite the stench. past.
"It's not good...the consul is suffering from vomiting and diarrhea..."
"I passed out... The Viscount passed out and fell into that puddle of feces... vomit!"
It was so disgusting that everyone present had goosebumps all over their bodies. Xiao Letian and Major General Jason looked at each other and said helplessly, "How can we negotiate? I'd better get on the ship and hurry up..."
"Your Excellency Yuan, are you really not giving France any face? What if they really cut off the river to the north? And this kind of provocation, with the temper of the French Emperor, is basically a declaration of war!"
Xiao Letian looked up at the sky lightly, "Declaring war? Do you think there is peace between us and France? No matter what I choose today, France will declare war with us sooner or later..."
"If you go forward, there may be a glimmer of hope, but if you go backward, you will be doomed to die slowly! How do you think I should choose?"
Major General Jason sighed, "Since you have made your decision, I won't say anything more, but I still want to remind you that it will take at least eight hours to travel from here to Port Said..."
"It's eleven o'clock now, which means you won't be able to see the waves of the Mediterranean until at least seven o'clock tomorrow morning... This period of time is enough for the French to block the river. In fact, it is very simple for a few shabby merchant ships to cut open the bottom of the ship. Just sink directly..."
Xiao Letian raised his hand with a ghostly smile, "Needless to say, the mountain people have their own ingenuity. To deal with the French's attitude of underestimating the enemy, they can't blockade Port Said. We are destined to move forward. If you don't want to It’s okay to move on, I thank you for escorting me all the way..."
General Jason's eyes widened when he was squeezed by Xiao Letian. "God, are you questioning my professional ethics? The mission I received is to safely escort you to the Mediterranean Sea and safely hand over the mission to the Atlantic Fleet. How can I evacuate alone before the mission is completed?"
"The British fleet will just follow. If there is a conflict, we will resolutely complete our mission!"
"Thank you, thank you very much! I will tell the Queen about your bravery and integrity!" Xiao Letian held General Jason's hand tightly.
When Jason heard that Xiao Letian was going to say good things about himself in front of the queen, his hands started to tremble with excitement. "Oh, God, thank you!"
"But I would also like to remind you that if you want to increase security, then I suggest destroying the telegraph wires next to the canal now..."
Xiao Letian's eyes lit up, "Come with me! Confidant! Hahaha... don't worry, I have sent someone to take action now!"
Jason heard that the two of them were speechless, and then they all burst into laughter.
When Xiao Letian returned to the Zhiyuan, the deckhand immediately shouted, "Go and bring Dr. Buck, and then bring Miss Ikram over who is resting. I have something to ask..."
After a while, Dr. Buck and the tired-looking girl Ikram walked into Xiao Letian's cabin. When they heard about Ferdinand's bizarre symptoms, Dr. Buck suddenly shouted, "Yes, yes, this is right." This is the disease caused by dysentery, how come even the consul is infected?"
Xiao Letian looked at Ikram with a smile, "Girl, how much did you add to them? It only took a whole day for symptoms to appear?"
Ikram shrugged indifferently, "My maid said, this old man likes to drink iced black tea very much, and he also needs to add a lot of honey... Can't he just add some well water into it? I don't know what to mix." How complicated it is!”
Note: There will be updates soon.
