Mountains and seas close at hand

The plan started in an orderly manner.

The bus stopped in front of the supermarket, Bai Xunhua got off, and at the same time Song Banyan rolled out the window to hide in the luggage compartment.

Bai Xunhua went into the bathroom, pretended to wet his clothes, and spent money to buy a coat from the Mongolian girl in the bathroom.Then he took out Song Banyan's backpack from his backpack and quickly left the bathroom.The black jacket saw that she was taking her companion's bag, and thought that there was another person in the toilet.

After setting up his doubts, Bai Xunhua hurried to the road and hailed a taxi. The jeep did not hesitate, and immediately followed.The bus also started slowly, and left the first supermarket unhurriedly.

Bai Xunhua acted according to the plan, and soon came to a market, where the plan also deviated.The black jacket guarding outside the toilet of the first supermarket listened to the instant message from his companion, and quickly realized that the other party was suspicious, and immediately took a taxi to catch up.

At this moment, Bai Xunhua is still planning calmly, ordering goods in the mall, and leading the delivery man to the bus.While looking out the window, she backed away from the bus calmly: "тщательносложить." (Russian: Put it down carefully)

Vendors happily squeezed onto the bus carrying boxes of all sizes.The man with glasses opened the door, rushed out of the jeeo car, and reached the front door of the bus in the blink of an eye.The uncle of the driver clenched the steering wheel with both hands, sweat dripping down his forehead like a waterfall.

"Holeden!" (Mongolian: Hurry up)

"Three, three." (Mongolian: good)

"Zha, the peach is getting darker." (Mongolian: Okay, let's pay)

Bai Xunhua smiled and said nothing, just waited for the man with glasses to get into the car, and asked the vendor to ask him for money, and took the opportunity to get off from the back.At this moment, a front of a car suddenly appeared in the mirror of the bus, and a black jacket jumped out of the car, heading straight for the back door of the bus!

Song Banyan, who was hiding in the luggage compartment of the bus, held the steel pipe support with one hand, rubbed his eyes with the other, and yawned.Suddenly, his body was thrown out uncontrollably, and his head fell on the floor of the car.

"Snapped!"

"Close the door and drive!"

Before Bai Xunhua finished speaking, the bus rushed out like a rocket.The uncle driver is experienced in rivers and lakes, and he knows the depth of the water when he sees them doing things.Glancing in the rearview mirror out of the corner of his eye, he saw the black jacket rushing towards him aggressively, and immediately closed the door with a "crash".With a sharp turn on the steering wheel, the tires of the car scraped against the ground, and the bus made a sharp turn on the road in Zamyn-Uud.

Seeing the bus moving, the man in the black jacket and glasses didn't have time to think about it. He took three steps at a time, and suddenly grabbed the window with all his strength, and climbed outside the bus like a monkey.

But except for the driver uncle, no one expected that the stopped bus would start suddenly and make a sharp turn.The incident happened suddenly, and the hawkers in the car immediately fell into disarray, crackling and falling all over the car along with the bottles and cans.The black jacket and the man with the eyes hanging on the outside are even more embarrassed, like leaves on the branches of the wind.

Bai Xunhua clenched the handrail and shouted in Russian: "

Автобусовбудетвзрыв, бежать. "(Russian: The bus is going to explode, run)

At the moment of life and death, who has the time to think too much, several peddlers in the car, no matter men, women, young or old, got up and climbed out of the car window in a hurry.

Pedestrians and vehicles on the road were surprised at how the bus suddenly went crazy. Before they could figure out the cause and effect, they saw many people jumping out of the bus, shouting——

"Trig! Trig!"

"Amy Abra!"

"Ahhhh!"

"Amy Abra! Terig!"

......

When Song Banyan squeezed his head and got out of the luggage compartment, there were already grasslands and yurts in front of him.The smell of charcoal smoke wafted over, making Song Banyan smile.

At the dinner table, the uncle of the driver danced the leg of lamb with his hands and talked eloquently. The 5-minute event was described as a round of Romance of the Three Kingdoms: "Your elder brother, I press the close button, just like Zhang Yide drinking off the Dangyang Bridge, and turning the steering wheel, it's like Zhao Zilong entering and exiting Changbanpo!"

Song Banyan and the older man had always been able to chat, chatting with him about Zhuge Liang and Qixing Deng, the driver uncle was very happy, and he would not thank Jin for life or death.

After a meal, the guests and guests were happy, the driver went back to pick up the tourists, and Song Banyan and Bai Xunhua said goodbye.

"Saving people is like putting out a fire, let's go." Song Banyan swung his backpack over his shoulder, turned his head and saw Bai Xunhua handing out a red envelope to the driver uncle with his mobile phone, and was immediately amused, "I knew it, you didn't do it for no reason. Will take the initiative to ask for a number."

Bai Xunhua put away his mobile phone, and smiled: "Yes, Song Banyan knows everything."

Song Banyan had no choice but to take her hand obediently with her doting tone.When Bai Xunhua was having breakfast in Erenhot, the contact person who sent a message had already arrived.After getting into the car, Song Banyan found out that Bai Xunhua actually used Ji Xian's channel.

Altan, a staff member of the Ji Group's office stationed in Outer Mongolia.Bai Xunhua is a sophisticated person, and asked his former colleagues to check the list of personnel dispatched from Outer Mongolia on the intranet.

"Mr. Bai is too polite. I have heard of your name in the valley. The acquisition of Shiming Group is a big deal. I heard that Mr. Ji was still thinking about it when he was still there. It will be done when Mr. Bai takes over." Al Tan said in Mandarin. Very standard, the tone is natural, and the test is quite standard, "Why is Director Ji willing to let you take a vacation? Every minute is a loss."

Bai Xunhua said with a smile: "To give me a long vacation, Director Ji canceled all my intranet accounts."

Hearing that Bai Xunhua was no longer in the Ji family, Altan smiled enthusiastically: "That's great, then Mr. Bai, you can stay here for a few more days. Outer Mongolia is not as good as Shanghai, but it's as good as it is poor."

Song Banyan secretly praised him when he heard the words, this kid is not simple, he is a character.

Bai Xunhua said: "Mongolia is not poor, and the ground is full of gold."

Song Banyan was in a good mood: "Yes, we are lucky, there is a big piece in front of us."

Altan is a Mongolian name, meaning "gold".

Altan turned his head to look at Song Banyan, and said pleasantly: "It is said that talent and appearance can't be both, I am really lucky today, and I have two beauties and talented women on board."

People support people, and pictures are fun.

Business mutual bragging is an appetizer, and there are at most two chopsticks at a business banquet.Altan must be a smart person, otherwise Bai Xunhua would not have picked him out of the seven in the Outer Mongolia office.Sure enough, I briefly introduced several particularly famous scenery in Outer Mongolia.Altan changed the subject, talking about the social outlook of Outer Mongolia and the political and business circles.

"We in Inner Mongolia are relatively small, 2500 million people. Outer Mongolia has one-sixth of our China, just over 300 million people. But half of them are in Ulan. It is said that it is the capital, and the small environment in Ulan Bator is poor. It is not as good as the third- and fourth-tier cities in China, and it is far worse than Ximeng. Guobai was built with our assistance, and the Bulesky Building was built with South Korea’s assistance.”

When the car turned sideways, Song Banyan looked out the window, feeling like he was driving into a wilderness.

Altan continued: "The economy basically depends on mines. The commodity index rises, and the mines are sold to make money. When it falls, they go home from work and drink. You see, there is the Oyu Tolgoi copper and gold mine. We call it the OT mine. 09 In [-], Rio Tinto signed an investment agreement with the Mongolian government. Mr. Bai should have heard about it.”

Bai Xunhua nodded slightly: "I know that Rio Tinto Group is one of the world's largest suppliers of resource mining and mineral products. At that time, Rio Tinto's Shanghai office had an accident, and my teacher talked about Stern Hu for a week."

They chatted about old business affairs, but Song Banyan was confused.Half guessed, full of interest.

Altan smiled heartily: "In 09, the price of copper rose, and the Mongolian government felt that it had lost a lot. It signed the contract and reneged on the debt. It was delayed until 13. The price of copper mines fell again. OT Mine is the largest enterprise in Mongolia's history. , All the mined mines are exported to China, and we even supply the electricity.”

Altan shook his head: "Living in the gap between China and Russia, we are highly dependent on us. In this situation, the Mongolian government dares to invite the Dalai Lama to play. The political savvy is not as good as that of our village head, who knows how to instigate hatred among the people at the bottom. China. You don’t know, it’s been better these years, we used to dare not speak Chinese when we went out. Fortunately, it’s in modern times, in an era when it can do it and never push it, it’s already been beaten to death seven or eight times!”

Those who are small but not humble, those who are weak but not afraid of the strong, those who are disrespectful and insult their neighbors, those who are greedy and clumsy in making friends will die.

Song Banyan tilted his head and smiled at Bai Xunhua: "Thank you for civilization."

Bai Xunhua smiled and said: "In 12, the "Foreign Investment Restriction Law" was issued in response to the acquisition of Chinalco. As a result, European and American capital assessed risks and subsequently withdrew a lot. Mongolia's economy was once on the verge of collapse. Isn't Chinalco back now? They don't understand , Poor people need to fight hard, and capital has capital to wait."

Altan laughed angrily: "Boss Bai, my father told me since I was a child that if you have 1 yuan, you can invest it all and take a chance. If you have 100 million yuan, you must learn to avoid risks."

The first expressway in Mongolia, China Railway Fourth Bureau is still under construction.Driving on the grassland was like a boat on the sea, and the three of them rushed to Ulaanbaatar, and their bones were about to fall apart.

After driving to Lanam and finally getting on the highway, Song Banyan tilted his body and fell on Bai Xunhua's shoulder: "It's worth celebrating."

Altan sneered.

Song Banyan was startled, thinking what was going on.Unexpectedly, Bai Xunhua suddenly said: "The road from Lanam to Choir has won the Mongolian municipal honor "Pearl Award". Before that, the road from the capital Ulaanbaatar to Choir was also built by Chinese companies. "

Altan said, "Yes."

After a long while, he said again: "The road has been repaired, but the Outer Mongolian dog said it was unqualified and refused to pay. These big profitable projects are contracted in stages, and the materials are paid for by themselves. My dad is one of the contractors." , I paid most of the wages after paying out the savings at home. I hid in the yurt at my grandma’s house during the Chinese New Year. I remember that day very clearly. The adult drank a few catties of wine and finally smiled. There was a sound of horseshoes outside, and Song Banyan’s father clapped his hands. The shaker bowl fell. It was not a debt collector who came in, but the big brother from the ranch next door. He said, he said that someone jumped off the building at your house, and the police came here."

Altan slammed the steering wheel: "It's Uncle Zhao, my dad at the same table. He's in the cement business, and my dad owes him 12. I wanted him to make some money at the beginning. Who, who would have thought of that! 12 Ten thousand, one life."

At this moment, Song Banyan finally understood that Altan's sneer was a sob swallowed by the common people with blood in their teeth, and it was the powerless resistance of injustice and guilt.

After dark, the three arrived in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia.Altan did not dare to take them through the slums.Going straight to the city center, the road is very lively, music is coming from bars in all directions, and the roar of cars is overwhelmed.Before Song Banyan could see enough, the jeep had already driven into the Shangri-La Hotel parking lot.

Altan parked the car: "This is the best hotel in Ulan. It was just built last year. According to Mr. Bai's request, we reserved a presidential suite."

The hotel manager was already waiting outside the door with someone, escorting the three of them into the room.They had just left when Altan received a call and said to Bai Xunhua, "Mr. Bai, that person is here."

Bai Xunhua glanced at his watch: "Half an hour earlier than the appointed time, please come up in 27 minutes."

Altan said: "Boss Bai, the Mongolians have a straight temper. These old and young men have grown sideways from childhood to adulthood."

Bai Xunhua said: "Altan, that's your business."

Altan was startled, did not speak, and left with a slight bow.

As soon as he left, Song Banyan hugged Bai Xunhua: "I know, it's not that he is really short of money and anxious, he dare not take our job."

Bai Xunhua patted Song Banyan on the head: "Go take a bath."

Song Banyan let out an "oh" and lay down in the bathtub of the presidential suite.Bai Xunhua came out of the shower room, sat by the bathtub and wiped her hair, and asked her, "Ask the service desk to send you a little yellow duck?"

A very serious tone.

Considering that there will be business for a while, Song Banyan can only grit his teeth and hold back his breath, vowing to drag her into the bath next time.By the time she came out after putting on her bathrobe, Bai Xunhua was already putting on eyeliner.Song Banyan boiled a pot of water and took out the tea box from his bag.

"Half smoke, help me iron my clothes, it's in the box." Bai Xunhua had already started to comb his hair, "Give me the perfume by the way."

The two backpacks were packed by Song Banyan, from "Feng Shui Guizang" to the cinnabar yellow paper, even the human bone rosary beads and sky eye beads brought out from the hidden mountain.Daily necessities are pitifully small, just two T-shirts that I wear in turn.

The suitcase was packed by Bai Xunhua, Song Banyan didn't pay attention to it before, but when he opened it, he found all sorts of things.Bai Xunhua actually prepared a half-arm with double palace silk collar for himself.Think about the statue of Buddha that was comparable to the stone statue of Genghis Khan that I saw on the road.

At 27:[-] p.m., the doorbell rang.

I thought he was a dude from a Mongolian politician, but it was a member of the Traditional Mongolian United Party in suits and leather shoes who came in.There was a smile on the chunky face, which reminded Song Banyan of a sentence, fearing power and not being virtuous.

After all, he is a person who is in the officialdom, talking nonsense for more than half an hour, patting his chest and assuring-"As long as I don't ask Putin to borrow the atomic bomb, there is nothing I can't do."

As soon as Bai Xunhua explained the matter, his expression changed immediately, and he rubbed his hands and said, "This matter is not easy to handle."

Song Banyan, who had been standing by the side doing decorations, took a step forward, and gently put the hot bank card in his hand on the table: "Citibank, 100 million."

Humpty Humpty immediately stretched out his hand.

Song Banyan pressed the bank card with his fingertips and drew an arc, and moved the card directly to the other end of the coffee table.

Chubby wanted to talk, Bai Xunhua glanced at his watch: "Mr. Dashi Dawa, it's getting late. If you kindly don't want to waste my time, here is your car fare."

As soon as Bai Xunhua raised his hand, Song Banyan immediately walked to the desk, opened the drawer and took out the money he had prepared in advance.When a thick stack of dollars was placed in front of Humpty Pun, his eyes were red.

Without hesitation, he immediately said, "Boss Bai, please wait for my news."

Bai Xunhua sent him out very politely: "Altan, please deliver Mr. Sidawa for me."

As soon as the door was closed, Song Banyan immediately sat on the sofa, holding the bank card and laughing: "Short and fat guy thought it was 100 million US dollars. Citibank card, US dollar cash, tsk tsk."

Bai Xunhua took out the makeup case and sat on the sofa to remove makeup: "It's dollars."

Song Banyan was taken aback: "We have so much money?"

Bai Xunhua said casually: "Do you remember the 500 million you got back from Ji Xian? After deducting taxes, 400 million was used to join the franchise, and we made 120 million from reselling, as well as our house."

"Oh." Song Banyan nodded, admiring Bai Xunhua's well-connected connections, "It's only been so long since Zhang Gong and the accident happened, and it's been discounted so quickly."

Bai Xunhua said: "I've been preparing for you for a long time. Teacher Zhang just happened to happen."

Song Banyan gave a thumbs up: "Look high and build far, think far and wide."

Bai Xunhua glanced at Song Banyan: "Hippy smiling face, don't you feel sorry for your little money?"

"Boom, boom, boom," there was a knock on the door.

Altan came in and saw Bai Xunhua taking off his makeup, he was a little at a loss, and quickly relaxed: "Boss Bai is too generous."

Bai Xunhua put down the mirror and cotton pads, her makeup was clear and beautiful, and she and Gang just seemed like two people: "A broker is worthless, what is valuable is the way. The 100 million is not for him, but for you."

Altan obviously didn't expect it, took a sharp breath, and said slowly, "Boss Bai..."

Bai Xunhua raised his hand to stop it: "You and I both understand that economic plunder is the rule of civilized warfare. Outer Mongolia's national conditions doomed a trade deficit. If you have this ambition, I will give you a ladder."

The offices of large groups in foreign countries are far away from the emperor. They enjoy the benefits of the head office and subsidies, but it is difficult to get promoted. It is a good place for retirement.Bai Xunhua values ​​Altan not only because of his story, but also because of his ambition.

He had a bright future, so he insisted on applying to be transferred to Outer Mongolia.

Of course not because it's close to home.

He wanted to use the Ji Group's cover to squeeze into the political and business circles of Outer Mongolia.

A power broker is a middleman who takes a commission between money and power transactions.With Bai Xunhua's 100 million US dollars, if he goes on to open up the relationship with the upper class, Altan can save at least five years of hard work.

Song Banyan and Bai Xunhua didn't know each other well in Outer Mongolia, so they left everything to Altan.After waking up the next day, Song Banyan couldn't help but go out for a stroll.Entering a supermarket, the shelves are filled with Russian chocolates, candies, bread, daily chemicals from Japan and South Korea, and various MadeinChina products.

No wonder the trade deficit and heavy dependence on imports.

Song Banyan took out a box of ice cream from the freezer, and Altan called—with news from Zhang Gongyu.

The author has something to say: to a place, to see a corner of customs.

When you come to a country, you can get a glimpse of the affairs of one side of the mountains and rivers.

May our teenagers open their eyes to see the world, instead of living in the "ancestor's past".

Also, don't forget that our ancestors passed away, majestic and kind.

Trade deficit: more imports, less exports, money flows abroad.
