After Cao Zhen took office as the Minister of the Mining Department of the Aurora Legion, he found that the situation he faced was different from what he had imagined - both easy and arduous.
What's relaxing is that you don't have to think too much about equipment. Any equipment, from large offshore oil field platforms to small oil seals with special batch numbers, as long as you can name the model, the legion commander can get it through his "powerful" smuggling channels.
Come.
In short, there are no problems at all in purchasing equipment and parts, which is very comfortable. But on the other hand, the department's personnel management and training work has become extremely cumbersome and arduous.
Cao Zhen did not come to Mexico alone. He also brought dozens of subordinates with professional skills, including management and technology. Zhou Qingfeng also tried his best to provide him with a group of professionals when he founded the Mining Department.
personnel to assist.
However, it is too troublesome to complete departmental integration in Mexico. The simplest point is that most Mexican workers only speak Spanish, while managers such as Cao Zhen can only speak English, making communication extremely difficult.
It's just that no matter how difficult the job is, he still has to do it. Even in his fifties, Cao Zhen had no choice but to start learning Spanish, and even the subordinates who came with him had to learn it.
They worked during the day and studied at night, and their life was quite fulfilling. However, when they returned to the dormitory that day, Cao Zhen discovered that the Ministry of Internal Affairs had caused some trouble for them.
"Minister Cao, pick one." Someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs brought a group of young girls, "In order to take care of everyone's lives, the army will allocate a maid to each of you.
These maids have received basic training, are obedient, smart, and can help with housework. They can also help you learn Spanish."
Maid? This is new!
There are many young people among Cao Zhenlai's subordinates. Unlike the medical department where there are some girls, the mining department is all male. When these people arrived in Mexico, they planned to be singles for the rest of their lives, and some secretly thought about having the opportunity to marry a Mexican girl.
It's not impossible.
And now the legion has taken the initiative to send the maid up.
The maids are all around twenty years old, dressed simply, with different looks and figures, and some of them are particularly beautiful. At this time, any talk of noble morality is empty talk, and many men are getting ready to move.
Everyone looked at Cao Zhen as the minister, and some even looked pleading, "Minister, I feel that my Spanish is progressing too slowly through self-study, and I need tutoring."
When the local aid group set out, Qin Weidong vividly described the legion's "population" development plan. For example, he himself had four wives, which was a joke within the aid group. It was only when they arrived in Mexico that everyone discovered that this was not the case.
Just kidding, this is serious.
For example, at the dinner party when the aid group just arrived in Mexico, Zhang Hong, the leader of the 1st Guards Regiment, brought out his four wives to toast the brothers. Those four beautiful exotic girls could put a lot of thought into the hearts of the people in the group.
Tease it up.
Marrying four wives was a good thing in the early days of the Legion, but it is not easy now. But young guys also hope that the Legion can solve the problem of singles for them.
Who would have thought that this would be resolved too quickly - she may be a maid, but as long as she is in love with her, she will be a wife.
Alas..., looking at the eager eyes of his subordinates, Cao Zhen couldn't stop him. It's human nature to be full and warm. Everyone is thousands of miles away, and there must be someone to take care of them in daily life. Besides, this is a legion.
It's a good idea... but on a larger scale, this is also to increase the population.
This may be related to the national development plan.
"Just give me this girl." Cao Zhen did not choose a pretty girl, but chose a young, thin Mexican girl. "There is no need to talk about maids. I will accept this girl as my goddaughter, and I will follow you from now on."
Let me live."
After all, someone always has to do the laundry, cooking, and cleaning. Lao Cao felt that it was actually quite good to have a goddaughter who took care of his daily life.
People from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came up quickly and said: "This girl's name is Sandra, she is not yet eighteen years old. Her life experience is very pitiful. We rescued her from a devil's cave under Diego's regime. She was covered with bruises and was almost on the verge of death.
He died and suffered great humiliation and torture.
However, Sandra has a junior high school education. After treatment, she has recovered well physically and mentally and is very healthy. She is very smart and learns things quickly. She is lucky to have Minister Cao as her adoptive father."
Sandra didn't look pretty, with thinning hair and some malnutrition. After a preliminary introduction, she walked up to Lao Cao and timidly whispered: "Dad."
Hearing this shout, Lao Cao was greatly relieved and took Sandra back to his dormitory with a smile. The girl worked hard when she got home, mainly responsible for cooking. Although the two could not understand each other for the time being, they were still harmonious.
.
After dinner, Lao Cao continued to work in his room. The mining industry is the foundation of the entire industry, and human industrial civilization was developed through mining. At present, Mexico's onshore mines have suffered varying degrees of damage.
The offshore oil platform is well preserved.
Cao Zhen's first priority is to resume production on several oil platforms in the Zara area of the Gulf of Mexico. So far, the progress is going very smoothly. The integrity of these platforms is very high, and at most, some parts can be replaced before production can begin.
Lao Cao was very happy to see the tasks on the schedule being completed one after another. He was busy until night, and after arranging the next series of tasks, he wanted to go to bed early, but he heard a noise coming from the dormitory building where he was located.
There were bursts of happy sounds of men and women.
The legion has not started major infrastructure construction yet, and the people from the Ministry of Mining all live together. The sound insulation of this room is not good, so it will naturally be affected a little bit.
"These bastards." Lao Cao also came from this experience. He knew that under the current situation, everyone could not be allowed to do Liu Xiahui, so he just laughed and cursed a few times. He just put away the things on the table and turned around, and saw the thin Sandra Anjing.
Standing quietly behind him, looking at him.
Lao Cao's old face turned red for no reason, and he said with a smile: "My child, go to sleep."
Sandra didn't understand either, so she just handed over a glass of water and a few pills and said something in Spanish. Lao Cao understood that the other party probably meant that he should take the pills.
The legion provided a lot of strengthening medicines to the personnel of various departments. Cao Zhen's body was restored to health by taking these medicines. He also knew that Sandra had a prepared worksheet in her hand, which contained reminders for Lao Cao to take medicine on time.
.
Lao Cao, who realized that he had thought wrongly, turned red again, and swallowed the pills with a sneer of water. Then he asked Sandra to go to bed, and he himself... The minister currently lives in one room and one living room. Sandra sleeps
If there was a room, he would have to sleep in the living room.
"The legion is also nonsense. How can a maid be given to this kind of living conditions?" Lao Cao put Sandra in the room and slept on the sofa in the living room. After lying down for a while, he felt that something was wrong with his body today, and the whole building
There is something wrong with the dormitory building as well.
"These guys have been doing this for more than half an hour and they haven't stopped yet." Lao Cao heard the shouts of men and women coming from next door and couldn't sleep. "How suffocated are they?"
After lying down for a long time, Lao Cao still couldn't sleep. The shouts in the dormitory building were still coming one after another. And he felt that the medicine he took tonight seemed different from the medicine he had taken in the past. He turned over and got up, found the medicine bottle, and opened his eyes.
Take a look - 'Supreme Pill'? The function of this medicine is...
Hiss..., no wonder!
At this moment, Lao Cao discovered that his goddaughter Sandra was not sleeping either. The girl stood at the door of the bedroom and looked straight at him, with an extremely confused expression on her face.
