Chapter 468 Gora Tribe
The matter of the Gola tribe was not easy to resolve. Guo Chu and Bai Tongxi discussed it over and over again and decided to find another time to visit the chief of the Gola tribe.
Guo Chu also made two preparations, and at the same time contacted Pengyun Machinery, hoping to make some modifications and designs for the ordered construction machinery.
"Increase the safety of engineering equipment?" Dongfang Hao, chief mechanical engineer of Pengyun Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd., sneered at the latest design requirements and said: "I actually doubt the performance of my design product. With the horsepower of the sky-high arm, even the tank can be overturned!"
"Mr. Hao, they want to ensure the personal safety of the driver and prevent theft of machinery. The security in their place is not very good... Besides, they didn't go to war." The subordinate reminded in a low voice.
"Okay, then strengthen the strength of the metal shell and glass. The robotic arm, well, it's quite interesting to do a combat mode!" Dongfang Hao was intrigued. He always wanted to set the Tianquan arm as powerful as a real Autobot.
The subordinate sweated coldly and emphasized again: "Mr. Hao, if the design is too strong, you won't be allowed to sell it at all!"
These days, Dongfang Hao has been doing a lot of trouble. People in the factory dare not make some of the machinery he designed, because some things may already belong to military equipment.
"Did I ask you to design a weapon?" Dongfang Hao raised his lips and smiled, "I just changed the Qingtian arm to a little more flexible and add several operating modes."
...
Nigeria, Kaduna State, a small and medium-sized black tribe, the Gola tribe.
Guo Chu and Bai Tongxi brought bodyguards and gifts to visit the chief here. On the way, the local introducer introduced the "rules" here to Guo Chu so that he would not offend the chief.
"The full name of the chief is Henry Makur Tuamayanana Giorman Piani..." Through translation software, the translated chief's name has a long strip, with more than forty syllables alone.
"Just call his respected Chief Henry." said the introducer.
"Yes." Guo Chu nodded and asked, "Is there any taboo?"
"No, Chief Henry has lived in France for many years, just by observing international etiquette."
Guo Chu still understands international etiquette, so he feels much more at ease. He is most afraid that the chief here will have some messy rules that he cannot handle.
Along the way, Guo Chu was also observing the scenery of the Gola tribe. There are more than 30 villages in the jurisdiction of the Gola tribe. Half of the construction projects of the Central South Construction Group need to be exposed to these areas. In addition, the mineral mining area of the Huaxia Mining Group is also within the management scope of their tribe.
Guo Chu discovered that most of the villages of the Gola tribe were very poor, and the dilapidated buildings were not as good as some remote rural areas in China. Although they were not poor, the villagers' food and housing conditions were very poor. No wonder there were so many people who stole and robbed.
When you arrive at the village where Chief Gora lives, it is obviously different. This place seems to be another world, with tall buildings with steel and concrete, and there are also gardening flowers, star-rated hotels and high-end restaurants on the neat streets, like a tourist town with a high level of development.
Bai Tongxi introduced: "Most of the property in this town belongs to the chief. Look, if it were the country, how rich would it be?"
"Well, the Gola tribe actually has such a good place!" Guo Chu sighed. The poor village he saw before formed a sharp contrast with the place.
"Good place?" Bai Tong snorted disdainfully, "This is a pit! We were so badly cheated when we came last time. Accommodation and food were simply sky-high!"
"Later, when I asked, these businesses knew that we were Chinese and had no food and accommodation, so they deliberately sold it so expensive. If it were British and French, it would be much cheaper."
"There are some Europeans here!" Guo Chu also noticed that there were some white people in this small town.
"In the past, Britain and France colonized Africa, so now Africa is greatly influenced by colonial culture. They learn from Europe everything. Many British and French multinational companies have a huge influence in Africa and are not comparable to the treatment we receive."
They arrived at Chief Henry's residence, a super luxurious villa with all kinds of modern facilities. Before entering the house, there were special bodyguards to check their cars and carry items, and many white people were hired in the villa.
A tall French butler came to welcome them and said, "Several Chinese friends, Mr. Chief, have been waiting for you in the reception room. Please follow me."
In the reception room, Guo Chu met Chief Henry. Chief Henry is in his fifties. Unlike the yellow-faced and thin villagers, he has a tall belly. He is wearing luxurious silk robe, with beautiful jewelry ornaments on his neck, wrists and fingers, and is full of jewelry.
The two of them greeted briefly and gave the gifts they had prepared carefully. Chief Henry just glanced at them and didn't care about the gifts they gave them worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Finally, the issue of engineering construction was talked about.
Guo Chu said: "Mr. Chief, our Central South Construction Group is building in Guidi, hoping to help Guidi develop better. With roads and railways, the transportation here will be more convenient..."
Henry said without expression on his face, as if nothing had happened: "This is your business and it has nothing to do with me."
Guo Chu and Bai Tongxi looked at each other, and Bai Tongxi said, "Chief Henry, we came with sincerity. Recently, people often make trouble on our construction site and even snatched our equipment. We hope the chief can help us maintain public order."
Chief Henry played with the jewelry in his hand and said in English: "Maintaining public order is the police's business, I don't care. But if you destroy the natural environment of our tribe because of construction, then I will care."
Both of them felt embarrassed, and the chief had no intention of having a good time with them.
At this time, the French butler next to the chief said, "Two Chinese friends. I heard that Chinese people pay the most attention to etiquette when doing things, and our chief also respects your etiquette very much. I think if etiquette comes, the chief is very willing to help you."
His words were very obvious, Chief Henry would have more benefits.
Guo Chu and Bai Tongxi were very unhappy, but they were not easy to show it. The last time they gave was a heavy bleeding. If you give it, it would be a loss to build a fortune and be a coolie for others.
"Chief Henry, I think our sincerity is already very obvious. We are here to do engineering construction. We have provided a lot of supplies to the Gola tribe for free." Guo Chu suppressed his temper and said, "I hope that both of us can understand each other and seek help from the state government in terms of public security issues."
