Niger, Niamey International Airport. 尼日尔,尼亚美国际机场。 …… …… …… …… „fellow, hā hā, we met.” Roberts welcomed warmly, hugged under Jiang Chen. “伙计,哈哈,咱们又见面了。”罗伯茨热情地迎了上来,拥抱了下江晨。 Jiang Chen blushed with shame shoved open Roberts this goods, „cough cough, we were shake hand normally quite well.” 江晨汗颜地推开了罗伯茨这货,“咳咳,我们还是正常的握手比较好。” „Not, to express my apology.” Made an effort to pat the Jiang Chen's back, before Roberts arrived at that fierce-tempered horse, exaggeratingly opens the vehicle door to say with a smile, „asked you to board, respectable Mr. Dictator.” “不不不,为了表达我的歉意。”用力拍了拍江晨的后背,罗伯茨走到那辆悍马前,夸张地拉开了车门笑道,“请您上车,尊敬的独裁者先生。” „Did not have one to cast aside caret-shaped.” Jiang Chen ridicules to say. “八字还没一撇呢。”江晨笑骂道。 No matter also he does hear this proverb, Jiang Chen brought Ayesha to sit the car(riage) back row, Nick naturally sat in the position of copilot. 也不管他听不听得懂这句谚语,江晨带着阿伊莎坐到了车后排,尼克自然是坐在了副驾驶的位置上。 „Said, I thought we and deserts are very predestined friends.” Stepped on the accelerator, Roberts holds the steering wheel to start the automobile, is grinning to say with a smile, „previous time in Iraq was also the desert.” “说起来,我觉得我们和沙漠挺有缘的。”踩下油门,罗伯茨扶着方向盘发动了汽车,咧着嘴笑道,“上次在伊拉克也是沙漠。” „Previous time cleans up for you, hoping this time you not to annoy to trouble.” Jiang Chen cannot bear spit the mortise. “上次是替你擦屁股,但愿这次你没惹上麻烦。”江晨忍不住吐槽道。 „cough cough, actually don't you owe? For American that your world runs about, with you toward the Slav man who the frontline runs, sits by you young beautiful woman.” Roberts after car(riage) in regards as a mirror, looked at Jiang Chen one ridiculing. “咳咳,其实你并不亏不是吗？一个替你满世界跑腿的美国人,一个跟着你往前线跑的斯拉夫佬,还有坐在你旁边的小美女。”罗伯茨通过车内后视镜,戏谑地看了江晨一眼。 hears word, on Ayesha face, although no expression changes, but that red cloud actually fluttered. 闻言,阿伊莎脸上虽然没有什么表情变化,但那朵红云却是飘了起来。 „Drives your car(riage), few idle talk.” Jiang Chen ridiculed the sentence , also then spoke thoughtlessly to ask, „where was the position of base at?” “开你的车,少废话。”江晨笑骂了句,顿了顿后,又接着随口问道,“基地的位置在哪？” „Sahara, Niger, Agadez development zone. You must be mentally prepared, there really is a wilderness.” Roberts said with a smile. “撒哈拉沙漠,尼日尔,阿加德兹省的未开发区。你可得做好心理准备,那里简直就是一片荒野。”罗伯茨笑道。 Outside the airport is the loess hills, cannot see what architecture. Except for the road, everywhere is the broken earth and yellow sand. Often the wind has blown, then can bring shading device to result in the sand dust. 机场外都是黄土山包,看不到什么建筑。除了公路,到处都是碎土与黄沙。往往风一吹过,便能带起一阵卷帘似得沙尘。 Moreover, this estimate is one by one that only Jiang Chen has been , the entrance does not have the taxi to cruise, does not have the public transportation station sign, let alone the airport of subway. 另外,这估计是江晨到过的唯一一个,门口没有出租车揽客,也没有公交站牌,更别说地铁的飞机场。 „Damn, is here so poor?” Jiang Chen took a look outside the eye piece. Side looks at that unable to see the sand dune, is flabbergasted to say secretly. “见鬼,这里这么穷？”江晨瞅了眼窗外。望着那看不到边的沙丘,暗暗咋舌道。 How here said that is also a capital, being insufficient is so backward. 这里怎么说也是个首府啊,不至于这么落后吧。 „Will urban district be good, to be equivalent to the Los Angeles suburb probably?” Roberts said with a smile. „10 kilometers, did not have to be much far. Right, speaking of poor, Niger Ministry of Commerce Minister Armani wants to see you. Un, inviting you to have the dinner.” “市区会好一点,大概相当于洛杉矶的郊区？”罗伯茨笑道。“还有十公里,没多远了。对了,说到穷,尼日尔的商务部部长阿马尼想见见你。嗯,邀请你共进晚餐。” „Attracting foreign capital?” Had a yawn. Jiang Chen depended backward on the seat, without interest said/tunnel, „, or you went for me, 20 hectares open land I have bought, temporarily had no interest in investing other project.” “吸引外资？”打了个哈欠。江晨向后靠在了座椅上,没兴趣地道,“要不你替我去吧,20公顷的荒地我已经花钱买了,暂时没兴趣投资别的项目。” „cough cough, no, actually. For example the water supply power supply of mercenary base, the supply of food and daily necessities, as well as munitions commodity of training consumption wait/etc..” Roberts coughed, the reminder said. “咳咳,不,其实还有。比如佣兵基地的供水供电,还有食品及生活用品的供应,以及训练消耗的军火物资等等。”罗伯茨咳了咳,提醒道。 This truly is issue Jiang Chen feels the chin to think. 这确实是个问题江晨摸着下巴想了想。 „Munitions commodity I have the means solution. Other words your suggestions?” Jiang Chen looked to Roberts. “军火物资我有办法解决。其它的话你的建议呢？”江晨看向了罗伯茨。 „How many fuel generator power supply issue my suggestion is buys to use, or purchases a number of solar equipment? That Sun is very big, I recommend the solar electrical energy generation. As for the water, as if violates a taboo in the local well drilling? We avoid having the conflict with these tribe people quite good as far as possible, heard that the Niger government cannot control them, therefore I recommend from the outside world transport/fortune. Moreover food and other daily necessities purchased from the local area were good, here price was very cheap, particularly food.” “供电问题我的建议是买几台燃油发电机用,或者是购买一批太阳能设备？那块儿太阳挺大的,我推荐太阳能发电。至于水,在当地打井似乎犯忌？我们还是尽量避免和那些部落民发生冲突比较好,听说尼日尔政府都管不了他们,所以我推荐从外界运。另外食物等生活用品从当地采买就行了,这里的物价很便宜,尤其是食品。” „That manages.” The Jiang Chen nod said. “那就这么办吧。”江晨点头道。 „Such as, you also really need to see that Armani. However before then, I first deliver the hotel that you stay.” Roberts shrugs. Saying with a smile. “如是乎,你还真有必要见见那个阿马尼。不过在此之前,我先送你去下榻的酒店。”罗伯茨耸了耸肩。笑道。 The car(riage) advanced in the city limit finally. 车总算开进了市区范围内。 The Niger river is through cities. The sandbank view is green and luxuriant, is similar to the oasis in desert. 尼日尔河穿城而过。河滩景致郁郁葱葱,就如同沙漠中的绿洲。 Actually here does not have is so exaggerating, Niamey that Roberts described how said that was also country Capital. Although without seeing Los Angeles suburb district magistrate what, but after the car(riage) arrives at the City Center section . Surrounding architecture seems like very decent. 其实这里并没有罗伯茨形容的那么夸张,尼亚美怎么说也是一国首都。虽然没见过洛杉矶的郊区长啥样,但车开到市中心的地段后。周围的建筑看上去还是挺有模有样的。 After arriving hotel that stays, Jiang Chen makes the stay of brief slightly, exchanged Roberts to prepare the good western-style clothes for him, then boards. 到达下榻的酒店后,江晨只是稍作简短的停留,换上了罗伯茨替他准备好的西服,便又是上了车。 But this car(riage) is not the Roberts fierce-tempered horse, but is Niger Ministry of Commerce is used to receive the private car of distinguished guest. 只不过这辆车不是罗伯茨的悍马,而是尼日尔商务部用来接待贵宾的专车。 To obviously be used to receive the hotel of foreign guest to get out in one, put on the western-style clothes black person to welcome to him with smile on the face. 在一间明显是用来接待外宾的饭店下了车,一位穿着西服黑人面带微笑地向他迎了过来。 „Welcome you. Mr. Jiang Chen, you certainly are that Eastern rich and powerful people who Mr. Roberts said.” Gripped the Jiang Chen's right hand warmly, black person Minister that this seems like some ages made an effort to swing swinging. “欢迎您。江晨先生,您一定就是罗伯茨先生说的那位东方富豪。”热情地握住了江晨的右手,这位看上去有些年纪的黑人部长用力摇了摇。 Made Jiang Chen be surprised very much, he will say Chinese Language unexpectedly. 很令江晨感到意外,他居然会说汉语。 „Thank your invitation, Mr. Armani.” Jiang Chen responded to his enthusiasm with a smile. “感谢您的邀请,阿马尼先生。”江晨笑着回应了他的热情。 „I knew that many and you equally outstanding China friend, has many in Niger friend who came from China, you can regard your second family/home here, Niger welcome your arrival.” With also calculates that standard standard spoken Chinese, Armani said warmly. “我认识很多和你一样出色的华国朋友,在尼日尔也有很多来自华国的朋友,你可以将这里当成你的第二个家,尼日尔欢迎你的到来。”操着还算标准的普通话,阿马尼热情地说道。 „hā hā, is certainly certain.” “哈哈,一定一定。” Exchanged greetings this to finish, Jiang Chen and Armani entered the hotel shoulder to shoulder. Bodyguards and relevant staff of accompanying, this „welcome ceremony” also quite grand. 寒暄到此结束,江晨与阿马尼并肩走进了饭店。身后随行的一众保镖与相关工作人员,这个“欢迎仪式”也是颇为的隆重。 How can I say, in the Jiang Chen brain emits a strange thought suddenly. 咋说呢,江晨脑中突然冒出个古怪的念头。 Does not know he celebrates the new year to return to home village time, does the county magistrate lead a personal servant to greet him to be able also is so the conduct? How saying that he is also gets up the Wall Street Journal man, the party newspaper has also praised him in the outstanding performance that the Internet area of technology makes. Let alone in native place Hu City that even if takes a broad view at the entire province, still without him mixes such good? 不知道他过年回乡的时候,县长带着一众跟班迎接他会不会也是这般做派？怎么说他也是上过华尔街日报的男人,党报也赞扬过他在互联网技术领域做出的杰出表现。别说在老家湖城那块儿了,就算是放眼整个省,也没他混的这么好的吧？ The riches and honor return home, that feeling is very certainly crisp. 啧啧,富贵还乡,那感觉一定很爽。 Although also lives abroad at present, but the distance will not hinder his yy. 虽然目前还身在海外,但距离并不会妨碍他的yy。 At the invitation of Armani, Jiang Chen takes a seat with him together. Order that takes a seat from this simultaneously, obviously heaviness of this Ministry of Commerce Minister to his courteous reception. 在阿马尼的邀请下,江晨与他一同入座。从这同时入座的次序,就可见这位商务部部长对他的礼遇之重。 Naturally, can see from one side, this Niger poor. 当然,也可以从侧面看出,这尼日尔有多穷。 Perhaps is because comes the Niger investment Chinese to be many, this Armani was also then chooses along with the guest very much discussed the business on the liquor table. However he also understood a fur/superficial knowledge regarding the China liquor table culture obviously, but template walked two cups then no longer to drink very much. 或许是因为来尼日尔投资的华人较多,这位阿马尼也是很随客便的选择了在酒桌上谈生意。不过他对于华国的酒桌文化显然也只是领略了个皮毛,只是很模板化地走了两杯便不再喝了。 Obviously, he drinking to discuss the business regarded a ceremony nature „China custom”. 显然,他是把喝酒谈生意当成了一种仪式性质的“华国习俗”了。 Also after is one exchanged greetings, Armani very much naturally the topic introduced the subject. 又是一番寒暄之后,阿马尼很自然而然地将话题引入了正题。 „Thanked Mr. Jiang to come the Niger investment very much, does not know that what we could provide to facilitate for you? The economy basically, is at the stage of rapid growth, investing the prospect is broad” “很感谢江先生来尼日尔投资,不知道我们能否为你提供什么便利？经济面基本向好,正处于高速发展的阶段,投资前景非常宽广” Listens to this Armani to say vividly, or flickering, Jiang Chen cannot be bearing is complaining at heart, just had/left an airport taxi not to have, but also felt all right with me installs to compel saying that the economy basically did approach? 听这阿马尼绘声绘色地讲着,或者说忽悠着,江晨忍不住在心里吐槽,就刚出机场连个出租车都没有,还好意思跟我装逼说经济面基本向好？ However although thinks at heart, but the words cannot say. 不过虽然心里这么想,但话可不能这么说。 „Naturally, goes forward I to favor regarding your domestic development. It is precisely for this reason, I come this place registration security company, and constructs the training grid.” Listened to this black uncle to say for quite a while, Jiang Chen still said with a smile calmly. “当然,对于贵方国内发展前进我非常看好。也正因如此,我才前来此地注册保安公司,并修建训练场地。”听这位黑叔叔说了半天,江晨却依然是不动声色地笑道。 Simply put, I temporarily to investing you have no interest. 言下之意,我暂时对投资你没啥兴趣。 However Armani has not planned to give up obviously quickly, one big pushed with him, and stopper gave him warmly several what investment plans and so on prospectus, the meaning is you looks at a stopper money. 然而阿马尼显然是没打算这么快放弃,又和他吧啦吧啦了一大推,并热情地塞给了他好几份什么投资项目之类的计划书,意思就是你看着塞点钱吧。 „This, I have a proposition, for convenience materials transportation, I plans to invest to construct one from the Agadez road of capital to lead to development zone.” This idea he has actually been fermenting, happen to raised taking this opportunity. “这样吧,我有个提议,出于方便物资运输的考虑,我打算出资修建一条自阿加德兹省首府通向未开发区的公路。”这个想法其实他一直都在酝酿了,正好借着这个机会提了出来。 Hears to build roads, Armani's eyes shone immediately. If can build the road, not only will not greatly improve in the development zone the life of people, but can also strengthen the government regarding these unruly place tribe people's controls. 一听到修路,阿马尼的眼睛顿时亮了起来。如果能把公路修起来,不但会极大改善未开发区内人民的生活,还能加强政府对于那些桀骜不驯的地方部落民的控制。 „hā hā, the Niger people will thank your friendship, generous Mr. Jiang.” “哈哈,尼日尔的人民会感谢您的友谊,慷慨的江先生。” „Does not need to be polite. Was studied by you about the path concrete plan item, at the appointed time according to the proposal that you put out, we made the further discussion again.” Armani that looks at the flashing eyes, Jiang Chen smilingly said. “不必客气。关于道路的具体规划事项就由贵方来研究好了,届时根据贵方拿出的提案,我们再做进一步的商讨。”看着目光炯炯的阿马尼,江晨笑眯眯地说道。 Finally, the dinner finished under the Harmony atmosphere. This Ministry of Commerce Minister rides in a carriage with him very much warmly together, delivered to him entrance that stays at the hotel. 总算,晚餐在和谐的氛围下结束了。这位商务部部长很热情地与他一同乘车,将他送到了下榻酒店的门口。 „How feels? fellow.” Roberts stands downstairs the hotel, visits him smilingly. “感觉怎么样？伙计。”罗伯茨站在酒店楼下,嬉皮笑脸地看着他。 „Was tired of thoroughly, was the black speech is so talkative? In order to win over support, they also very spell.” “烦透了,黑鬼说话是不是都那么饶舌？为了拉赞助,他们也是挺拼的。” That Armani is also very interesting, wants to come to be politician who has the speech talent. Originally what invests anything is nothing, perhaps but is saw that Jiang Chen had no interest in being somewhat anxious, was saying was saying fervent, specifically displayed in the language fast is getting quicker and quicker. Has such a small little while, clear(ly) knows he said should be the standard spoken Chinese is not false, but Jiang Chen cannot understand him from the start in anything. 那个阿马尼也是挺有趣,想来应该是个颇具演讲天赋的政客。本来拉投资什么的是没啥,不过也许是见到江晨没兴趣有些急了,说着说着就慷慨激昂了起来,具体就表现在语速越来越快。有那么一小会儿,明知道他说的应该是普通话不假,但江晨压根儿就听不懂他在叽里呱啦啥。 „hā hā hā hā!” Roberts laughed loudly, patted the Jiang Chen's shoulder, „did fellow, know my pain? I just arrived here first day, really was drawn by him was singing all day rap. However I moved you very much intelligently, using a pretext me is only runs about, investor that disburses money truly is named Jiang Chen's fellow.” “哈哈哈哈！”罗伯茨捧腹大笑了起来,拍了拍江晨的肩膀,“伙计,了解我的痛苦了吗？我刚来到这里的第一天,简直是被他拉着唱了一整天的rap。不过我很聪明地把你搬了出来,推说我只是个跑腿的,真正出钱的金主是个叫江晨的伙计。” „Hehe. This joke is uninteresting.” Jiang Chen stared his one eyes, walks toward the hotel. “呵呵。这个玩笑并不有趣。”江晨瞪了他一眼,向酒店内走去。 Caught up with the Jiang Chen's step, Roberts then to say the proper business in side. 跟上了江晨的步伐,罗伯茨在旁边转而说起来正事。 „In brief, with these just the black discussed that the business is truly annoying, but under casual sent them to be good with the candy. Tomorrow we go to Agadez, has a look your military base.” “总之,和那些刚黑鬼谈生意确实挺烦人的,不过随便拿点糖果打发下他们就行了。明天我们前往阿加德兹省,去看看你的军事基地。” „cough cough, preserves the company training ground.” “咳咳,是保全公司的训练场。” „It doesn't matter, everyone understands.” Roberts said not completely indifferently. “无所谓,大家都懂。”罗伯茨满不在乎地说道。 Stopped before the elevator, this fellow poked under the Jiang Chen's arm with the elbow suddenly, opened the mouth to say ridiculing: „Early tomorrow morning we, remember that do not play late.” 停在了电梯前,这家伙突然又是用肘子戳了下江晨的胳膊,戏谑地开口道:“明天一早我们就出发,记得别玩得太晚。” Then, no matter also Jiang Chen makes what response, Roberts flees the elevator that rapidly will soon close. 说完,也不管江晨作何反应,罗伯茨迅速窜上了即将关闭的电梯。 „This old silver stick.” Jiang Chen ridiculed the sentence, shakes the head. “这老银棍。”江晨笑骂了句,摇了摇头。 Cracking a joke, what excessive person little master am I that vertical that? 开玩笑,小爷我是那种纵那啥无度的人吗？ However at this moment, in his mind appeared suddenly yesterday evening, Ayesha put on the white ribbon the princess skirt 不过就在这时,他的脑海中突然浮现了昨天晚上,阿伊莎穿着白丝带的公主裙
