Chapter two hundred and sixty seventh blood diamond middleman
Xun Xuan also got up and said a few words in Lin Meimei's ear. Jiang Ying laughed and threw away the dishes and chopsticks to go to the elevator with the two. The three changed into a very casual set of clothes, Li took up jeans, travel shoes, casual jackets and T-shirts. After checking the weapons, the three went to the hotel headquarters. After a little communication with the headquarters, the headquarters helped to call a taxi. The taxi was a black man and looked very smart. Both sides talked about the price in the hotel, and then got on the car to go to the slums.
Although there is only one word difference between slums and civilian areas, there is a world of difference. Slums are called slums. In China, there is no practical meaning. Different people and different classes in society have a clear distinction between life and schooling. For example, the American structure is divided into rich areas, civilian areas and slums. In the 1970s, a group of social workers appeared in the United States to promote the integration of various classes. They established communities with different backgrounds, races and classes. However, there was no progress in this mixed community promoted by the people and the federal government. When blacks moved into the community, whites moved out of the community. When the poor moved into the community, the rich moved out of the community. Later, a buffer zone was found, called civilian areas, that is, white-collar areas. It is said that because of this experiment, the US federal government strongly supported and encouraged the growth of white-collar workers. Now middle-income families in the United States have occupied most of the American society and have become social subjects.
During the Cultural Revolution in China, there was also an experiment of class mingling. Workers and professors were forced to live together, but both sides were unhappy. Whether the country and the people admitted it or not, or whether it was a utopian guide for TV series filming. In reality, classes, races and backgrounds, it is difficult to live together.
South Africa is also divided into three different types, but the number of white-collar workers in South Africa is relatively low, and the domestic class conflicts are serious. This leads to a strange phenomenon. The rich people at the top are very united, polite, polite, and respect each other. The many poor people at the bottom often attack people of the same class for a little pitiful money.
Taxis were parked in front of a high-density residential area, and the taxi driver was beaten to death and was unwilling to go in again. He sincerely told Li Qi three guests that they should not come here. One reason was that they were dressed very clearly, and the other reason was that their race was vulnerable to attacks. The crimes against Chinese in South Africa were no longer news. Chinese people should go to Chinatown, and they should not come here. Ninety-nine percent of the people here were black. 60% of the unemployed people lived here, and even if they were in a job, they were engaged in lower-level occupations. Whites also had slums. However, their environment was more like civilian areas, and the public security situation was relatively good. There were ten slums in Joburg, which was the largest.
Li Qi thanked the driver for his kindness and asked the driver to wait nearby. The three of them closed the car door and got out of the car. They saw the prefabricated house, the dilapidated house, which could be blown over with a gust of wind. About 30 square meters of people lived in the prefabricated house, and the prefabricated house was filled with clothes. A woman and two children stared at Li Qi and the other two walked past their house.
Overall, this is a messy building complex. Electric wires, roads, hanging clothes, sand and garbage on the ground. Some slums are dilapidated and very clean. Obviously not, the garbage smells moldy. The ground is full of yellow weeds. The rich areas are opposite to this, with wide roads, green turf, beautiful and sturdy houses. They never stare at outsiders rudely and unfriendly. If you have difficulties, both black and white will be willing to help you.
There is hell on one side and heaven on the other.
There were some people gathered at the entrance of a low-end porn bar, and they either stood or sat and watched Li Qi. Li Qi suddenly remembered the gangsters in Tinghai City. But the nature was completely different. Li Qi beat the gangsters, and the police might scold the gangsters after they got to know each other. But if you beat them, the police would not scold them because it was your fault when you appeared. Furthermore, they were inferior and the police protected Li Qi's words, and they would come up with the banner of racial discrimination.
Jiang Ying was curious about looking at South Africa's pornographic venues. Li Qi smiled and said: "28% of school girls in South Africa carry HIV. Most of the pregnant women in school are 10-14 years old." There is one HIV carrier in every nine people in South Africa. Currently, the world's top AIDS growth rate is South Africa, India and a certain country.
"Don't be picky. After all, it is still the most developed country in Africa. There is a country that is the mother at the age of eight." Xun Xuan was very calm and looked at his mobile phone positioning: "If you walk two more streets, you will feel lost."
Suddenly, Li Qi pulled out his gun quickly and turned his gun. A black boy of fifteen or sixteen stopped at Xun Xuan five meters and raised his hands to retreat. There were three people of the same age behind him. After seeing Li Qi take the gun, a boy also touched his waist, and the other two were retreating. The boy retreated and said in English: "Misunderstanding, don't be excited."
Li Qiguan closed the gun and ignored them and continued to walk forward. Although the other party might have weapons, there would be no fire in this situation. Jiang Ying walked sideways with a wary look on his side to warn several bad boys. There were also enthusiastic people in the slums. Li Qi entered a grocery store. A black man in his fifties was wearing glasses. When he saw Li Qi and the other two, he immediately said: "God, you shouldn't come here at this time. I should call the police. Are you Japanese?"
Jiang Ying asked: "Is there any difference?"
"I don't want a Japanese to die at the door of my shop, and the police will make the surrounding area unblocked."
"we are……"
Li Qi interrupted Jiang Ying and said, "We are Denton's friends, but we find that we are lost."
Apparently the owner knew about Denton, nodded and shouted, "Li, take three Japanese to Mr. Denton."
Denton added a gentleman behind, expressing Denton's influence in the slums. A black girl about fourteen years old came out and slapped a small whip, which was very cute. She looked at the three of them. The owner proudly touched his head and said, "This is my granddaughter, an excellent student at xx school."
Li Qi knew that this school was an excellent international school, and it was usually only accessible to wealthy and powerful people. However, they would also give out pitiful places to the poor and publicize the achievements of the poor in the school. Because of this, the school will support the poor in the school. This beauty is the lucky one in this slum.
The owner said, "Thanks to Mr. Denton for everything."
The girl took Li Qi and the other two and said while walking that Li had already entered this prestigious school, but the government officials arranged for her children to replace her. The owner asked Denton for help, and Denton negotiated with the school, and finally accepted Li. Li was obviously a little celebrity in the slum, and both adults and children knew her. Their eyes changed greatly when they looked at Li Qi and their eyes changed greatly. In front of a two-story building, Li asked Li Qi to wait for a while, and she stepped forward to greet the two black men at the door.
A black man walked over to Li Qi and the others and said, "Who are you?" He was wearing casual clothes, an old camouflage uniform, but his temperament was very different from that of the residents. He spoke without being arrogant or humble tone.
Xun Xuan took out a business card and handed it over. This was Xun Xuan's business card. In principle, he was suspended, and this title was still valid. The black man glanced at the business card and nodded to make the three of them wait. He walked to the door and picked up the phone and talked to the person inside. Then he hung up the phone and walked over and said, "You have to leave your weapons."
Li Qi looked at Li, and she waved goodbye to Li Qi and the other two. Li Qi and the other two waved their hands friendly and handed over the gun. The black man did not search further and said, "Come with me."
Jiang Ying whispered to Li Qi: "Aren't he worried that we still have weapons?"
"No, handing over weapons means having a different attitude. You may not be able to use weapons if you really want to kill people."
Xun Xuan smiled and said, "Announce you have entered my territory."
“Is there any danger?”
"No!" Li Qi explained: "Real bad people are far from violence."
Surrounded by two floors is a small courtyard, with several women and children. There are also several people in hidden clothes on the first floor, and they seem to have not seen three people coming in. The black man said a few words to a guard at the door of the first floor. The guard pushed open the door and went in, and then came out and said, "Mr. Denton invites three people in."
The three of them entered, and it was a very simple living room, and the living room was eating. There was a staircase leading to the second floor. The meal included a white woman and two mixed-race children. Danton greeted him at the door and hugged Xun Xuan very enthusiastically: "Xun, long time no see."
"Introduction." Xun Xuan broke free from the bear hug and said, "Li, Jiang, this is Denton."
"My wife, An Jili, these two are my children." Denton said: "You Chinese like to drink tea, let's go next door."
"Okay." Xun Xuan knew that Denton didn't want to talk about things in front of his wife and children. Xun Xuan's visit was definitely not as simple as passing by and saying hello.
...
A very Chinese coffee table and casual brewing, Denton is very skilled in making tea: "Xun, just tell me the purpose."
"Well... I want to take a team of people into G Guodong Province to find someone." Xun Xuan handed over his phone: "His name is Xu Guang, and he is a doctor."
Denton took the phone and looked at Xu Guang's photo, and then looked at Jiang Ying. Don't these two look the same? Denton shook his head: "I haven't seen it before, what do you need?"
Xun Xuan said: "We know that you have some business in G Country. We want to know the situation in G Country, especially in the East Province."
"East Province?" Denton smiled and said, "I haven't sent anyone to the East Province for more than a month. The situation in the East Province is very strange, and the most famous is the m23 movement. The armed gangs supported by Rwanda and Uganda are not only stronger than warlords, but even government forces. Last month, the peacekeeping forces dispatched armed helicopters to cooperate with the government forces to strike the m23 armed gangs and prevent them from advancing westward. There are no warlords in the East Province that can control the situation. Now several armed groups are in their own right and are waiting and watching."
The m23, also known as the March 23 Movement, was a clear ** armed force. He occupied Goma, the largest city in the eastern province. It is said that at least 4,000 Rwandan soldiers crossed the border to help the m23 fight, but Rwandan officials denied the matter.
"M23 is quite cruel. Last month they executed more than 200 civilians who resisted them, including more than 80 children." Denton said: "They also gathered some foreigners as negotiation capital and hostages, attacked the United Nations humanitarian rescue refugee camp and robbed food to recruit soldiers." Denton spread his hands and said: "I have given up my business in the East Province."
