Extra 3: Traveling around the world (3)
As soon as the couple left the port, they ran into a group of dirty children. The oldest was more than ten years old and the youngest was only two or three years old. Each one was as thin as a bamboo pole.
"Sir, Madam, okay?"
"Good Samaritans, have mercy on me, please."
“???????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????…”
Lele felt soft-hearted. She couldn't bear to see such a scene, so she immediately took out a wad of change from her handbag.
Ji Yin just wanted to speak to stop them, but he didn't expect someone to move faster than him. He saw a middle-aged policeman in police uniform running over, waving his baton, and drove away the little beggars in a few clicks.
"What are you doing?" Lele said in a bad tone.
"Honorable madam, please don't be deceived by these little beggars. Most of them are habitual thieves. Once you release your kindness, you will be targeted by them. The best way is to stay away from them."
The middle-aged policeman spoke Daxia fluently, but his accent was indescribably weird. To describe it in Internet language, his words were full of the smell of curry.
Ji Yin pulled his wife's arm and nodded to the policeman: "Thank you!"
Lele also knew that she had wrongly blamed the other party, so she immediately handed over all the change in her hand as a tip, without fear that the other party would not accept it.
The couple had done their homework before coming to Tianzhu Peninsula. As foreign tourists, their personal safety can still be guaranteed. The only thing they should pay attention to is the local "tipping culture".
As the saying goes: Spend a little money and save big things.
As expected, the middle-aged policeman did not refuse. He took the change and held it close.
"Are you two here for a trip?"
"Yes." Lele nodded.
The middle-aged policeman's eyes lit up: "Do you need a tour guide? I can help you introduce one. This person is not only experienced, but also a veteran. He is completely trustworthy."
"Thank you, no need. We have already made a reservation with your local travel agency in advance."
Ji Yin became cautious on the spot.
The Tianzhu Peninsula is not a blue alliance. Although Daxia people enjoy super-national treatment throughout the peninsula, there are some things that must be guarded against, and it never hurts to be careful.
"What a pity. Mr. Biseswar is an experienced tour guide. He has participated in two wars against the Ceylonese and has been decorated many times. He is a war hero of our country."
"Really?" Lele was immediately moved, and then turned to look at her husband: "Ji Yin, why don't we..."
"Bisseswar."
The middle-aged policeman immediately interrupted.
"Yes, why not hire this Biseswar tour guide? It will be more lively with one more person."
Ji Yin directly agreed, and then told the other party the hotel they had booked, and asked the tour guide to go directly to "work" at eight o'clock tomorrow morning.
The middle-aged policeman seemed very happy and personally put the couple into a taxi.
When they arrived at the hotel, Lele couldn't help but curiously said:
"Ji Yin, on the way just now, I noticed that the people here look a little different from the Tianzhu people in my impression?"
"Is this so strange? The northeastern part of the peninsula is originally a gathering place for yellow people. They have applied to join Yahu many times, but unfortunately they have never been approved."
"That's it." Lele said with great realization, "If you didn't explain, I would have thought that people from our country came here to enclose land and build a country!"
"Let me tell you, the Tianzhu Peninsula is a backward and backward place, but people also know the principle of brothers staying behind the wall to avoid being humiliated. Coupled with the factors of faith, it is almost difficult for outsiders to gain a foothold.
Unless you have crushing strength, it is definitely not easy to start from scratch. The three peninsula wars are a ready example. "
Ji Yin explained in detail.
"In what age are we now, are we still seclusion and guarding the country?" Lele was a little disdainful, "If you ask me, the people here are really stupid. Why don't they stand up against those powerful people and capitalists?"
"The information flow here is not smooth, and people believe in the afterlife. The most important thing is patience."
Ji Yin simply replied.
After all, the issues here are very complicated and cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences, and his wife is not really interested.
"It's so baffling!"
Lele shook her head subconsciously.
…
In the next month, the couple traveled south along the coastline of the peninsula. As for the inland areas, they would never dare to go deep because of the lack of security.
All in all, the living standard here on the peninsula is unbelievably low. The per capita salary is less than 1,000 Xia Yuan per month, which can barely survive starvation.
Other things like education, medical care, etc. are all a luxury, and there is actually a large amount of slave trade in the local area, which is simply appalling.
After visiting all the way, Lele almost felt depressed. It wasn't until she left Tianzhu people's control that she calmed down a little.
She swore she would never come to this damn place again.
Some things are better out of sight!
After entering the country of Ceylon, the couple went straight to the capital, Colombo, where an old friend lived.
"Second sister, second brother-in-law, welcome to Colombo."
The speaker was none other than Dabao's "confidante" Vicky Layana Lawrence.
Perhaps it was because they were middle-aged and lacked passion in life. After a business banquet, the two accidentally had sex. Although neither party continued to entangle afterwards, they had a son.
Dabao kept this a secret from his family.
But Xu Dong eventually found out.
Maybe Vicky wanted to give her son a formal identity, or maybe old man Lawrence deliberately leaked it to deepen the relationship between the two families.
In short, after scolding his third child, Xu Dong took the opportunity to recognize Vicky as his goddaughter, and personally gave the little girl a big Xia name, Xu Xiuchuan.
In any case, the child is innocent.
Lele also learned the truth from his father during the Chinese New Year.
Xu Dong did this just in case.
He was the only one who knew the truth at home. He didn't even tell his mother and wife, mainly because he was afraid of revealing flaws and affecting the relationship between his eldest son and his wife.
In addition, Dabao is now in a high position.
Once the matter of the illegitimate child is leaked, his position as chairman will definitely be lost, and it will also seriously damage the reputation of the old Xu family, which has a very bad impact.
The reason why he chose to let his youngest daughter know is mainly because he is worried that one day he will be gone, and at least someone can help Dabao share the pressure.
So as not to lose his sense of proportion.
After all, Lele is still the most suitable.
After all, the other three siblings have their own careers, only Lele is the most idle, and their whole family is not interested in business, so they won’t make any trouble.
It’s hard to say about others.
Especially in Xiao Haizao’s generation, there are more than a dozen brothers and sisters, and many of them are interested in family businesses. There are already signs of "struggling for power".
Xu Dong is happy to see it happen.
But competition must be based on real ability, and you can’t do it without a bottom line, so as not to turn against each other, which will be more than worth the loss.
After learning the truth, Lele was unusually enthusiastic towards this "future sister-in-law":
"I haven't seen you for a few years, little sister, you are getting prettier and prettier."
"No way! My second sister is getting younger and younger."
