May Mantal was dissatisfied in her heart, but the cruel reality forced her to lower her proud head.
And she also understood what her father meant, biting her lips and approving that Cao Mo had added Albert Beale and Little Kuski to the list of members of the Disaster Relief Committee.
Albert Beale, the eldest son of Almoududi, is already 26 years old this year. He was caught up in the chaos of the Akwa coup before he graduated from high school, let alone continued his studies in higher education.
However, Almoududi never gave up his geological research on the Drake underground porphyry formation, and Albert has always been his main assistant. This lasted until Albert got married two years ago and had no energy to continue.
Doing these things that others regard as absolutely "superfluous", I am currently working as a low-level clerk in the Drake Regional Office of the Oil and Mining Group, earning a meager income.
Albert Beer has long received good training in geology and mining exploration directly from his father. In the eyes of Kabuja, Yututan and others, Albert's professional level is very high.
And Almoududi's second son, Muller Beer, dropped out of school before graduating from elementary school. Living in poverty and poverty, it was difficult to maintain family education. At this time, like the vast majority of local unemployed youths, apart from some piecemeal work, he had to work alone.
Tian Hunji found some odd jobs in the town to support his family.
On the one hand, the descendants of colonists are still at an absolute disadvantage compared to Drake's main ethnic groups, the Akan and Kanwa. On the other hand, they are severely suppressed at many levels, including politics and economy. Therefore, white people like Muller Beer
Even if the unemployed youths have constant conflicts with the local Akan and Kanwa youths, it is impossible for them to form gangs and join society.
Kabuga's original plan was to hire Almoududi's eldest son, Albert, into the company as a geological exploration engineer, and to provide a basic position to Almoududi's second son, Muller.
Of course, Cao Mo had different plans.
A large group of refugees would arrive at the camp at noon. In fact, it was Almoududi's two sons, Albert and Muller, who tried to bring more of his friends and neighbors to the camp for rescue, but they did not expect the news to spread.
Thousands of disaster-stricken people flocked here.
Kabuga and others were quite annoyed by this. They believed that Albert and Muller were ignoring the interests of the company. If Cao Mo had not already planned to extend a generous helping hand to the descendants of the stricken colonists,
This matter will most likely cause uncontrollable chaos.
Kabuga’s full opinions on Albert and Muller and his more negative and serious predictions about the situation can be said to be the legacy of hundreds of years of ethnic antagonism and anti-colonialism in this land.
Deep traces.
Of course, compared to the radical nationalists, this factor in Kabuga's heart is still quite mild.
Cao Mo didn't think about convincing him now. He thought that it might not be appropriate for Albert Bill to directly join the subsequent exploration work and take on more important positions. Seeing that he also cared very much about the descendants of the colonists.
For the sake of interests, they thought of inserting him into the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee. Muller was too young to hold a formal position, so he could just do odd jobs in the past.
At the same time, Cao Mo was thinking about stuffing little Kusky in, mainly because he was thinking of the thrilling scene on the south bank of Lake Cornero where he was besieged by members of the Steel Fist Brotherhood.
Fortunately, at that time, the Guidam family was already in ruins and everyone was despising them. Cao Mo gave Nitz, Oppenheimer and others what they wanted, and the situation was quickly calmed down.
What if the Guidam family had not completely lost power at that time and there was still room for backlash, or if the greed of powerful people such as Nitz Oppenheimer had not been satisfied and they still wanted to take a bite of the Chinese businessmen?
In that case, how out of control will things on the south shore of Lake Cornero get?
Cao Mo has not yet contacted the local dignitaries and powerful people in Drake. Previously, Abuja and Xiao Jun were taking care of the affairs here. Cao Mo naturally had to consider the competitors they would face after Akwa.
, will he be more powerful, will his methods be more vicious, and his actions more unscrupulous?
When building a white community on the east bank of the Wusang River, internal security forces must also be built up. Cao Mo stuffed little Kuski into it in the hope that he would be directly responsible for this aspect, but at this time he would not treat May Manta
You make it clear.
At this time, for example, when a large amount of disaster relief materials arrive on the east bank of the Wusang River, and when the local government has to apply for the return of part of the land used for community construction, it will be very difficult to conflict with local forces.
It’s hard to talk about things.
In any case, it is now necessary for the Drake Office of the Front for the Advancement of Democracy and the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee to establish the position of security adviser.
Cao Mo didn't care whether the little girl who was too particular about right and wrong was dissatisfied, this was the condition he had to accept for May Mantar.
…………
…………
Most people have no idea that there is any deeper intention behind the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee. And the senior leaders of the Democracy Promotion Front who know the inside story will have to cooperate more deeply with Cao Mo in the future. It is impossible that they cannot accept this level of compromise.
.
The Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee was hastily established in this way, and a preliminary division of labor was quickly made internally.
At this time, everything was busy with disaster relief, and no one thought to question anything.
Cao Mo arranged for his men to build a temporary camp in the southwest corner of the exploration area to serve as the office and storage space for the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee.
In the early morning, two thousand tents, diesel generators and other equipment and supplies arrived at the camp. Cao Mo handed them over directly to the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee, and promised May Mantar that in addition to the subsequent free transfer of hundreds of thousands of dollars in relief supplies,
One million dollars will also be donated directly to the Democratic Advancement Front's Drake office and the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee for this time's disaster relief.
After all, money is a fun thing. Even if Cao Mo's intentions are so naked, Mei Yi still has to express her gratitude.
The terrifying intuition that was close to telepathy was not a good thing at this time. While listening to Mei Mantar's verbal thanks, he clearly knew the disdain and dissatisfaction in her heart. Cao Mo felt no pleasure in throwing money away.
Although the past ten years have been a tragic era for the descendants of the colonists in Akwa, who were evicted from their wealthy and comfortable homes, had their property and properties forcibly expropriated, and were suppressed at all levels including education and employment, however, in
In this land where industrial development and education are extremely lagging behind, they have always been the group with the highest level of education, the most popular education, the best vocational skills, and the highest degree of discipline.
The list of Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committees that May Mantar initially brought out, regardless of whether the relevant people were in a difficult situation due to various objective factors at this time, they were indeed
A person who is both capable and concerned about public interests and has a high reputation among the local colonial descendants.
With the material support provided by Cao Mo, the disaster relief and self-help work was carried out in an orderly manner overnight, without the chaos that Kabuga was worried about. The camp in the exploration operation area was not disturbed in the slightest.
Cao Mo stayed up all night. In the morning, he saw thousands of tents being set up overnight. There was nothing to criticize about the work of the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee, so they dragged their exhausted bodies and rushed to the hotel in the south of the town to stay.
.
Since the relationship between Drake and Peimei was temporarily suspended, Juan Mantar was unable to come to Drake for the time being, so Xie Sipeng returned to Mangba first and did not follow Cao Mo to the hotel in the town.
The hotel used to be the manor of a local business owner. After the Sevi coup, the owner fled overseas. The manor was expropriated by the local government and sold to the local Akan plantation owners to operate as a small hotel.
The hotel cannot be said to be luxurious. It is just a small manor-style villa. The main building only has four floors and the garden area is not large. However, it is located in the core of the early wealthy residential area.
Even though many houses in the periphery are gradually dilapidated and disrepaired, the overall environment here is excellent.
There are tall palms, jacarandas and other trees everywhere, the roads are straight and tidy, and the corners of the fenced courtyard walls are filled with flowers. There are no dense mosquitoes; there are not many traces left after the heavy rain, but because of the heavy rain.
, the climate is somewhat cooler, the surrounding vegetation looks fresher, and it is like a completely different world from the east bank of the Wusang River.
The industry and mining industry in Drake is declining day by day, and not many business travelers pass through the town in a day.
The business of this hotel was quite poor. Kabuga had booked the entire hotel in advance so that Cao Mo could come and stay. It was also used as Cao Mo's temporary office at Drake. The conditions of the camp in the exploration operation area were too simple.
This is common across the world. No matter where the big boss goes, he will receive meticulous care from his subordinates. Last night, Cao Mo was just asking for trouble. He wanted to know more about the exploration operations here.
The first floor is the reception area and security room, and the second floor is converted into an office area; the third and fourth floors are living and leisure areas, with six bedrooms.
In addition, there is a three-story annex building used as dormitories for accompanying staff.
Cao Mo, Stari and Zhou Han moved directly into the three bedrooms on the fourth floor, leaving the three bedrooms on the third floor empty as reception rooms. If Juan Mantar and Bram came over, De
There is no better place to stay in Lake Town.
The only bad thing about the fourth floor is that the master bedroom has an independent bathroom. The other two bedrooms share the bathroom with the third floor. There is also a shared bathroom on the first floor. This is the style of homes in the early years. The owner does not regard this place as high-end.
The hotel undergoes renovation.
Starlie threw down her suitcase and rushed into the bathroom to take a shower.
Zhou Han also had a busy day, and felt that his bones were about to fall apart. He stood in the common living room on the fourth floor, looked out at the palm forest outside the window, and couldn't help but sigh:
"Kabuja looks like a silly big guy, but his ability to manage a company is not bad, and he is also very good at flattering the big boss,"
"It's not like I can stay here forever. This guy mainly has his own plans!" Cao Mo said with a smile.
After not sleeping all night, and having to transfer flights and take the bus before, Zhou Han was exhausted and dirty. Zhou Han had no intention of dealing with Cao Mo anymore, so he returned to her room and took out the toiletries.
I went to the bathroom on the third floor to take a hot shower and catch up on my sleep.
When she walked to the stairs, she heard a muffled thud from Cao Mo's room. She looked over to see that the door to the room had been closed. She didn't know what was going on and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I accidentally fell in the room!" Cao Mo's dull voice came.
Listening to Cao Mo's voice, it sounded like it was coming from inside the room. He was clearly separated by another floor. He went into the bathroom to spy on Stari taking a shower, but was knocked to the ground by Stari?
…………
…………
Cao Mo really wasn't knocked to the ground by Starlie. He was too eager to walk into the bathroom barefoot. Unexpectedly, the bathroom floor tiles were stained with water. He didn't notice that his feet slipped and he sat down on the ground.
Stari had just wrapped herself in a bath towel, but when she saw Cao Mo grinning in pain and gasping for air, she didn't step out of the bathtub and punch him. Instead, she lay on the edge of the bathtub and gloated at the show.
"I don't know how much I've sweated, and my whole body feels sticky and uncomfortable!" Cao Mo waited until the pain in his buttocks subsided, then limped to his feet. Seeing Starlie's fierce look, he didn't dare to get close to the bathtub.
I took off my sweat-smelling shirt, pulled out a towel and stood in front of the washstand, pretending to wet the water to scrub away the dirt on my body.
Starlie was angry and funny. When she saw the coin-sized scar under his left rib, she couldn't help but feel soft in her heart.
Looking at Stali's expression in the mirror, Cao Mo said tentatively: "The bathtub is so big that two people can sit in it without being crowded, and it can also save water. We Chinese have been taught since childhood that Africa is particularly short of water.
I really don’t like people who waste water.”
"Aren't you really good at guessing? Do you want to guess whether I will hit you or not if you take off your clothes and sit in the bathtub?" Starlie rested her elbows on the edge of the bathtub and held her tender cheeks in her hands.
Whether Starlie would take action or not was completely like Schrödinger's cat. Even if Cao Mo had a telepathic intuition, he would have to take off his clothes and step into the bathtub with one foot to know the result.
However, looking at Stali's pure and beautiful cheeks that were soaked in hot water, and looking at her narrow and lively beautiful eyes, Cao Mo felt as if he was filled with blood, and he leaned to the edge of the bathtub and said, "You have such a beautiful look on your body."
Dirty, can I help you rub your back?"
Cao Mo put his hands on Sta Li's exposed shoulders. Sta Li grabbed the edges of his palms with both hands. Before she could pull them away, he kissed her lips regardless.
"You bastard! The water has been stained by you!" Stari was not willing to break Cao Mo's hand after all. When she saw him hugging her body like a wrestler and throwing her into the bathtub, the two of them splashed all over the floor.
It was water, but Cao Mo didn't even take off his thick and dirty jeans, so he pushed him away angrily.
Seeing that Cao Mo was about to stand up and take off his clothes, Stari glared at him and said, "Don't let me see that ugly thing."
Cao Mo could only sit in the water and take off his wet clothes. He pulled Stari over and said, "I'll wipe your back. Look how dirty you are..."
"You've been on the road for a few days and didn't sleep last night. Why is this thing so annoying?" Stari was held in Cao Mo's arms. She felt her waist tremble. She saw Cao Mo's hands coming over and pulled her over.
He grabbed it with his hand and said, "You promised to rub my back, but you don't keep your words.
You can't beat me if I try!"
"You need to wash the front too!" Cao Mo grabbed hold of the delicate peaks. After Stali's body completely softened, he dared to pull her body over and kiss her lips.
"No, Mr. Song will be angry!" Starlie still remembered the last line of defense.
"I told Yuqing that we were innocent, but she didn't believe her life or death. We felt that she couldn't be wronged in vain!" Cao Mo picked up Starlie's body from the water, and went to the house without even bothering to wipe off the water stains on her body.
Run to the bedroom...
…………
…………
Zhou Han had a good sleep and saw that the setting sun had set on the treetops of the palm forest in the west, like a huge salted duck egg yolk, and then he felt hungry.
Pushing open the door, he saw Cao Mo lying naked on the big bed with his legs spread out. Stari was also naked and sleeping with her face pressed against Cao Mo's chest. Zhou Han subconsciously wanted to withdraw his legs, not wanting to be surprised.
I was worried about the sweet dream of this pair of wild mandarin ducks, but the setting sun shone in from the window and fell on Stali's snow-white back and buttocks without any flaws. The curves were so charming that as a woman, she looked at them.
They couldn't help but be stunned, secretly wondering if their own back could be so beautiful!
The legs were so slender, and the thick dark brown hair covered that stunning face like a stream of water, falling on Cao Mo's bronze chest. Only then did Zhou Han notice Cao Mo's lines.
The distinct muscles give people a sculpture-like beauty. If you look carefully, Cao Mo has a good skin given by God.
"What time is it?" Cao Mo opened his eyes, stood up slightly, looked at the door of Zhou Han's station room, and asked.
"The sun is almost setting. I just woke up and I'm so hungry. Why did you guys sleep until now?" Zhou Han asked.
At this time, he heard Mei Mantar talking downstairs. Zhou Han turned around and saw Mei coming up the stairs.
Zhou Han closed the door to the room, blocking Mei Yi's eyes from peering in, and asked: "Miss Mantal, what's the matter?"
Mei Yi looked at Zhou Han and saw that her dress was thin and her silk nightgown was held up high by a pair of charming peaks. Then she thought about the delicate body she had caught in Cao Mo's arms just now.
Although the relationship between men and women in Western society is more open, she has believed in Christianity since she was a child. She still can't stand this kind of relationship where one man and two women have semi-public sex. She frowned and said, "It's nothing. I won't disturb your rest."
Already..."
After a whole day of work, the vast majority of the disaster-stricken people have been generally settled, and the Disaster Relief and Self-Help Committee has also drawn up a plan for the subsequent procurement and deployment of disaster relief materials.
The funds and supplies were all paid by Cao Mo. Mei Yi thought about how to explain to Cao Mo. She also wanted to find local officials to continue negotiating the affairs of the disaster relief committee members. In addition to begging for some supplies from the local area, she also wanted to
I'm thinking of asking for a quasi-formal name.
Her father, Juan Mantal, also meant this, in order to pave the way for the subsequent construction of the white community.
She just ran back to the town, but she didn't expect to see an eye-piercing scene.
Mei Yi's contemptuous look was too pale, and she turned around and went downstairs without saying anything. Zhou Han could also guess what she had misunderstood, but she didn't want to explain anything.
At this time, he heard Cao Mo and Stari talking in the room. Zhou Han thought that he and Stari were going to have sex again, so he was about to go downstairs first, but he heard a "pop" sound in the room and movement.
When she opened the door, she saw Cao Mo sitting on the floor with his naked buttocks spread out, while Stari wrapped a towel around the woman's body and walked to the bathroom with a look of disdain.
"Did you get kicked out of bed?" Zhou Han asked in confusion.
Cao Mo wrapped himself in a sheet in shame, not wanting to face the fact that he had just been kicked out of bed by Stari.
…………
…………
The road between Drake and Peimei along with the train track were washed away, and it is not known when it will be repaired.
Whether it was exploration operations or resettlement of victims, there was no need for Cao Mo to worry about the details. In a short period of time, Cao Mo did not want to come into contact with the regional office officials of the Drake Regional Government and the Petroleum and Mining Group. After dinner, he sat in the garden
See the information here.
The pavilion in the garden is surrounded by gauze to block mosquitoes, and there is a gentle breeze. There is not a trace of heat. Except for the wireless network card that is always connected to the Internet, everything here is perfect.
The laptop computer showed that the wireless network card was working normally, and there was also a weak signal. Zhou Han was not sure what was wrong. He opened the web page and tried email, but there was no sign of data connection.
It didn't matter that Zhou Han didn't go online, but Cao Mo had work emails to deal with every day. She found Tanya and moved the vehicle-mounted satellite communication equipment to the courtyard.
After working hard and confirming that Cao Mo could send and receive emails, Zhou Han sat in front of his computer and saw an unnamed encrypted email displayed in his mailbox.
"What information made you stunned for a moment?" Cao Mo, who was sitting opposite, looked up and asked.
"It's nothing, I was bitten by a mosquito!" Zhou Han patted the slender calves exposed under the skirt.
Cao Mo spread his fingers and pointed at his eyes to show that he was not blind; Xiaolu sat next to Cao Mo like a human being, and did not have the arrogance to kick Cao Mo out of bed. Stari also looked up warily.
come over.
Zhou Han smiled bitterly and turned the laptop around.
"Liang Yuan is contacting you?" Cao Mo saw that it was an unnamed encrypted email and asked, "The email is so short, what is it written in?"
Although the encrypted email only contained a few foreign symbols, Zhou Han knew what it meant without having to compile it: "When these ciphertexts are translated, they should be the English abbreviation of Stru Gold Mining Company..."
"
"What does he want to do?" Starlie asked, frowning.
"If my guess is correct, Liang Yuan should be hiding in a corner and watching our every move, and guessed that we found something on the east bank of the Wusang River," Zhou Han said, "Liang Yuan obviously saw us
There is a very big uncertainty in the investment in Drake, that is, once Akwa reopens restrictions on foreign companies’ investment in the mining and energy industries, whether Stru Gold Mining Company can invest in Akwa
Also the assets that were expropriated ten years ago, including the exploration rights in the Drake area?"
"What a smart and greedy guy!" Cao Mo said, tapping his forehead lightly.
"He's just a self-righteous idiot!" Starlie said dismissively, "Aren't we doing so many things just to plug these loopholes bit by bit? Is it possible that he doesn't jump in to stir up the trouble?
Will True Gold Company not attack us once they know for sure that Drake has discovered a copper-gold deposit?"
