Unlike the habits of Asians, Africans never had the habit of rejecting gifts because they were expensive.
Chief Zaria was overjoyed as he accepted Jiang Chen's gift, and then pushed the white female slave over as a gift in return. It was said that before the war, she was a well-known movie star in Europe, a well-known philanthropic ambassador, and was very popular in Africa.
In Zaria's tribe, gifting slaves was a gesture of goodwill. The more beautiful the slave, the higher the status before becoming a slave, the more it reflected the importance the master attached to the guest. However, Jiang Chen didn't dare to accept it and quickly declined the "gift".
What a joke.
He just settled the issues in the harem two days ago. If he accepted it, the world would be turned upside down …
Watching Chief Zaria leave, Jiang Chen and Chu Nan looked at each other with stiff smiles on their faces.
"Do you have anything you want to say?"
"No, Mr. General."
"Just say what you want to say." Jiang Chen rolled his eyes.
After coughing twice, Chu Nan finally held back his laughter and lowered his head respectfully.
"You … are a natural-born movie star."
…
With NAC's T-3 Power Armor, Zaria's ship quickly left the port of Wanghai. Watching the cargo ship leave, Jiang Chen returned to the mansion, activated the interdimensional bracelet, and returned to Wild Fruit Island in the modern world.
When Jiang Chen returned to the modern world, the girls were decorating their new home.
Whether it was the air or the sun, after getting used to the warm sea breeze, no one wanted to return to the devastated world. And since they could now travel between the modern world and the apocalypse at any time, there was no need to live in the apocalypse.
After the neutrino channel was opened, the energy consumption was not much.
Since they decided to live in the modern world, the small wooden mansion on Coconut Island was obviously not enough.
Lilith downloaded the blueprints in the database and commanded the construction robots to begin the expansion of the mansion. With just one phone call, all kinds of furniture and building materials were airlifted to the island by helicopter. Some high-tech supplies were directly moved from the apocalypse.
After working for a whole day, everyone was exhausted.
Except for Lin Lin.
Since the morning, this guy had been holding Ayesha's hand and begging her to take him for a ride on the yacht. Unable to withstand Lin Lin's coaxing, Ayesha, who had always been soft-spoken, didn't say anything and was helplessly pushed onto the yacht by the energetic Lin Lin.
The two drove as far as Penglai City. Lin Lin originally wanted to go up and take a look, but it was already late, so she had to turn back.
On their way back, they happened to run into a fishing boat heading back to Coro Island, so they bought a lot of seafood.
In the evening, everyone set up a barbecue rack by the beach and held a beer barbecue party.
Looking at the smoking, oily barbecue, and the girls chatting and laughing while drinking canned beer, Jiang Chen suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, as if a hole was filled.
"What are you thinking about?"
With a glass of wine in her hand, Xia Shiyu sat down next to Jiang Chen, wrapped her arms around her knees, and looked at the beach.
"Nothing." Jiang Chen smiled and looked at Lin Lin and Yaoyao in swimsuits chasing each other on the beach. "I just think that life now is not bad."
"I have an idea. Should we open a branch company in that world?" After drinking a little wine, Xia Shiyu's face was slightly red. The light from the grill reflected on her face, exuding a faint and charming brilliance.
"Branch company?"
"Mhmm, I went there to take a look. I always feel that the development potential is good." Gently shaking the glass filled with champagne, Xia Shiyu smiled and took a sip. "Mhmm, it's just an intuition. Maybe I've been in the CEO position for too long."
"You actually think the development potential there is good." Jiang Chen smiled.
It could only be said that the perspective was different.
From the perspective of this world, in addition to the ruins, there was also the opportunity buried under the ruins. However, from the perspective of that world, there was only despair other than the ruins.
Perhaps it was because of this reason that PAC, NATO, and CCCP adopted the idea of escapism and launched the six colonial ships.
Build a cross-dimensional company?
Although Xia Shiyu only said it casually, Jiang Chen suddenly felt that it was quite interesting. He had seen a lot of multinational companies, Future Group and Celestial Trade, and only he had the opportunity to establish a cross-dimensional company.
"Open a branch company in the apocalypse?" Xiaorou patted the dust on her dress and sat on the right side of Jiang Chen. "It sounds interesting. Can I recommend myself to be the manager of the branch company?"
After witnessing the prosperity of this world, Xiaorou already agreed with the term "apocalypse."
Moreover, she was almost tired of dealing with tedious and boring government affairs for her sister in the General's Office. After witnessing the various aspects of this world, she suddenly felt that it was not a bad choice to become a woman like Xia Shiyu who could take charge.
At least, she wanted to try what it felt like to run a company.
"Interview passed." Xia Shiyu raised her glass and looked at Jiang Chen mockingly. "But our president is not me. Even if I agree, it doesn't matter. A suggestion for Xiaorou, our president is here. You should bribe him. I'll pretend I didn't see it. "
"Don't bribe me. It's useless. I won't accept bribes these days." Noticing Xiaorou's smiling eyes, Jiang Chen quickly shook his head and took a sip of beer to moisten his throat. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "But really, if you want to open a branch company, what kind of projects would be better?"
"A lot. For example, infrastructure should be the most profitable, right? And food, that's something that can't be produced in the apocalypse. " Xia Shiyu hugged her knees and raised her head. She looked at the gradually darkening light in the distance and smiled. "I just don't know how much energy it would consume to pass through the portal."
"Speaking of food, I met with the chief from Africa today …" Jiang Chen smiled and told the two girls what happened this afternoon.
When they heard that the chief, who originally came with the intention of buying slaves, didn't buy the slaves, but was tricked into taking more than 20 million acres of fertile land and ran back with a T-3 power armor gratefully, the two girls burst out laughing at the same time.
Xia Shiyu, who first got the joke, wiped the corner of her eyes and suppressed the laughter in her stomach. She coughed twice and said, "Speaking of Africa, I suddenly thought of a joke I saw on the Internet. Countries that produce cotton export cotton but import cotton cloth. Countries with abundant forests export pulp but import paper. Agricultural countries have large areas of barren land but import food. And Nigeria … has a coastline of more than 800 kilometers, but imports more than 2,000 tons of salt every year. "
"I suddenly thought of what business our branch company would be doing." Jiang Chen smiled.
Xiaorou blinked her eyes and looked over with anticipation.
"The 20 million acres of land can be used as a test." Jiang Chen shook the empty beer can, passed it over, and touched Xia Shiyu's glass. "I'm almost tired of the life of always transporting food from the modern world to the apocalypse. I'll strive to make the African continent the granary of NAC as soon as possible."
"Then what should we call our branch company?" Xia Shiyu grinned.
"Future Development." Jiang Chen threw the beer can into the basket, leaned against the coconut tree behind him, and said with a smile, "Split the infrastructure project from Future Heavy Industries and register a parent company in the modern world. As for the apocalypse … we'll hire locals from the apocalypse. "
Jiang Chen hadn't yet decided whether to open the channel between the two worlds.
Because he didn't know what impact it would have on the two worlds. While accelerating the development of the world on this side, there would certainly be bad things brought uncontrollably to this world through the portal.
Opening a branch company in the apocalypse might be a good choice.
Perhaps one day in the future, this cross-dimensional enterprise of his might even have the opportunity to expand its business to other worlds.
