After resting one night in the RV, Lu Ming did not stop at East China Sea after sending Christine back to East China Sea early the next morning. Instead, he changed a special plane and flew directly to Antiguala.
Lu Ming was in a good mood. Although the kiss with Christine was just a taste, as long as a man can hold Christine's lips in his mouth without being torn into pieces, you can imagine the joy in his heart. , an incomparable sense of satisfaction and conquest, as if the whole world is at your feet.
As for what else will happen that night, it is naturally something that I dare not even think about.
…
In Antiguara, the transfer of ownership of the rubber plantation has been completed, and the Donghai-Ferman City route to be operated by Qinghai Tourism Company has also received preliminary approval from the Antiguala State Aviation Administration and the Ferman Municipal Council.
However, there was trouble in the rubber plantation. Lu Ming came to Antiguala the day before yesterday to deal with the matter.
In addition, there is something wrong within the observation group. Of course, the internal problems of the observation group are not a problem.
There are 20 members of the Eastern Alliance Observation Mission in Antiguala, most of whom are lawyers, journalists, writers, social groups, etc. Four of them, including the leader, are from the East China Sea. The remaining eight members of the alliance, each There are two observers.
The head of the group, Fetro, does not have an official status. He is a senior freelance journalist in Donghai and the vice chairman of the Donghai Independent Journalists Association.
Nominally, these twenty observers are all civilians, so the final product is an independent investigation report for reference by the Eastern Alliance Secretariat.
The observation team has no accompanying staff and has to do everything by itself.
However, after the observation team arrived in Antiguala, Antiguala Governor Chachai Zonglawimon sent specialized service personnel and security forces.
The observation group lived on the eleventh floor of the Santoro Hotel, and the staff and security personnel sent by Governor Chachai also lived on the eleventh floor, and all the remaining rooms on the entire floor were booked.
Chachai is very concerned about the safety of the observation group.
Although a military coup has just been crushed, in fact, the armed forces of Antiguala State, the Antiguala National Guard, are basically in a state of fragmentation. There are about 50,000 armed forces, officially designated as a total of twelve brigades. , in the hands of different families. In addition to these regular armies, there are also armed forces from local tribes and so on.
In the final analysis, Antiguara is a family and tribal political model, and democratic elections are just a formality.
Generally speaking, the governor only rules the Fairman Peninsula. Four-fifths of the population living on the remaining islands in the lake is almost out of control.
Even the mayor of Fairman, the most important city in the Fairman Peninsula, would become a powerful political opponent of the governor if he and the governor were not from the same political family and were not allies.
The current mayor of Fairman City, Basong Siangla, comes from a family that is hostile to Governor Chachai.
Governor Chachai lost an extremely powerful ally due to the unexpected death of General Sugli, the originally prestigious supreme commander of the National Guard. Coupled with some mistakes in governance, some rival families united and his status was compromised. And dangerous.
Within the empire, the most stable and economically dynamic region today is the Eastern Economic Alliance region. Chachai proposed a package of economic cooperation plans to the Eastern Economic Alliance, also applied for relevant economic assistance, and hoped that Antiguara would become a member of the alliance. Observer Economy.
In this context, what he was most worried about was of course hostile forces sabotaging the observation team's visit, so he put the safety of the observation team first.
However, in the observation group, there was an observer who had been away from the group for a long time, which made him very uneasy. He sent a special note to the observation group, asking members of the observation group not to act alone.
Fetro was also very dissatisfied with Lu Ming, but he didn't expect that he finally found the lawyer Zhang. His earnest words of persuasion still rang in his ears, but the next day, he disappeared again.
Today, as soon as Lu Ming arrived, he was called by Fetro to the business conference room on the eleventh floor, which is now a conference room exclusively for the observation team.
"Lawyer Zhang, I have said again and again that I ask you to travel with the group for the sake of your safety. Moreover, although we are from different regions and were strangers before, now that we have formed a group, we still need to have some group discipline. Right?" Fetro looked solemn.
He is a handsome and handsome man in his forties. When talking to Lu Ming the day before yesterday, he was very sincere and tactful. Today he really couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Lawyer Zhang, although some of us have brought their families, none of them are like you. I heard that you brought more than a dozen with you?"
"Yes, you live on the top floor at your own expense. I have no right to interfere, but we came to Antiguara for a common goal, right?"
】
Fetro poured out all the dissatisfaction he had suppressed in his heart.
"You Montenegrin lawyers may have a high status and support you before traveling, but we are a team and we still have to take care of other people's feelings. Are you right?"
Lu Ming looked like he was listening and being taught. He did not refute, but just listened quietly.
Seeing his attitude, Fetro's expression softened slightly, perhaps feeling that he had said too harshly, "Anyway, Lawyer Zhang, if you have any difficulties, you can talk to me. There is nothing that cannot be solved, right?" After a pause, He said helplessly: "I don't know what you are busy with. Ordinarily, you shouldn't take the opportunity to travel, and there is no need to use the name of the observation group, right? All your expenses are paid by yourself."
Lu Ming smiled and said: "Actually, I have been busy investing recently. Of course, after coming to the local area, I suddenly felt unwell. I will give you a leave note later. But please don't worry, Mr. Fetro, if anything happens to the group, I will take care of it as soon as possible." It's time. Moreover, I promise to complete the tasks assigned to me by the regiment seriously. In fact, Governor Chachai is just worried about the safety of the observers who are acting privately. But please don't worry, I will not encounter any danger. "
Fetro immediately felt powerless, looked at Lu Ming, and said with a wry smile: "It's up to you, but my assessment of you shouldn't be very good. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to participate in investigations commissioned by some independent agencies commissioned by the alliance in the future. Although you are from Montenegro, I think Montenegro does not want the independent observer they commissioned to attract criticism, right? Moreover, if the Alliance Secretariat needs to hire a lawyer as a consultant or litigate, you must also be in Montenegro. On the list." Then he shook his head, this guy doesn't think so long-term, and how can he reach the level where the league hires a lawyer?
Lu Ming nodded: "I understand, thank you for your patience."
Although his attitude was extremely upright, his work was extremely casual. Fetro could only shake his head helplessly.
…
When he went to inspect his rubber plantation on Green Funa Island, Lu Ming took Mrs. Britney with him.
Among the four fire ladies, Mrs. Britney is the oldest at thirty-two years old. She has fluffy blond hair and the most lazy and mature style. On the speedboat, her gorgeous dark red tutu was blown by the wind, but she still shook her head. The style of wearing a feather folding fan vividly interprets the noble lady of the decadent era.
Perhaps because he and Christine had just separated in the morning, Lu Ming felt empty. When Grandma Tuolong saw Lu Ming’s worried expression and suggested that at least there should be a fire girl by his side for the next few days, Lu Ming’s first thought was Britney.
To some extent, Mrs. Britney is regarded as a fake of Christine.
In fact, Britney is the most obedient and timid of the four ladies.
Recently, she has also been exposed to the rubber plantation business.
After arriving on the island, Mrs. Britney followed Lu Ming step by step. Although she was dressed as a lady, she was doing the work of a maid.
