It took Xu Yun more than two hours to explain the situation over the phone. After all, he would be gone for at least a month. If he could not gain Lai Wen's trust in a month, he would need another month.
This would be a very long period of time. If he did not explain clearly, how could he make Zuo Meiyan let him go? How could he make Ruan Qingshuang feel at ease? How could he make others not worry about him?
After all, it was Africa!
Thinking about what kind of countries there were, it was easy to understand why Ruan Qingshuang and the others were so worried. Somalia was definitely the most chaotic type of country without a government. Although the new government supported by the United Nations had just been established, it was still in a state of chaos.
Libya, the civil war was in full swing. South Sudan, the country had just been established and was full of crises. Egypt, after a revolution, the new regime was controlled by a military government. There were hidden dangers everywhere. Nigeria, the country with a large population, the government was corrupt, and there was almost no law and order. Even the safety of tourists could not be guaranteed, let alone other things. These days, who would dare to travel there if they were not afraid of death? Just like Nigeria, Congo was also chaotic and dared to kill people on the streets.
There were also Eritrea, Djibouti, Angola, and so on. They were all troublesome places. Even Tunisia, which used to be a good tourist destination, was very unstable because of the country's revolution.
Hua Xia's investment in Africa had spread to the whole of Africa. Some people warmly welcomed Hua Xia people, but some hated Hua Xia people very much.
Hua Xia had countless construction projects in Africa, and these construction projects were often done by Hua Xia people themselves. The wages were at least 20 pounds a day, which was much higher than in Africa.
However, the money earned by the Chinese would not be spent locally, nor would it promote local development. They were a group of people who kept themselves isolated.
The unemployment rate in Africa was so high. Hua Xia people came all the way to Africa to earn wages that were several levels higher than in Africa, but did not promote local development. This led to the unemployment rate in Africa, and caused some people to hate them.
There was also a saying that if there was no trade, there would be no killing. Hua Xia people's demand for wild animal products had brought disaster to some animals, such as elephants. Ivory chopsticks and ivory sculptures. Most of the ivory was exported to China.
Therefore, Hua Xia people were not very popular in Africa.
It could only be said that Africa was too backward. The leaders did not know how to manage a country well.
The state is a tool for crisis management, not a tool for suppressing unrest.
Extreme countries repressed moderate citizens, while democratic countries repressed extreme citizens. This was why Africa was in turmoil.
The first enemy of any country must be the "domestic enemy". In every country, there is always a group of people with common interests, and political tools are created to deal with the crisis of internal disagreements.
The difference between a totalitarian state and a democratic state was not the difference between suppression and non-suppression.
The politics of democratic countries were targeted at the "extreme" minority of citizens. It was precisely to prevent the minority of extreme forces from hijacking the interests of society.
A totalitarian state mainly targeted the moderate and subjective citizens, thus creating an opportunity for the extremist forces to replace the "former totalitarian state."
Many countries in Africa were totalitarian, which was why they were in such a mess.
Moreover, Africa was very big, and there were many countries. Even the basic development of electricity was very different. It was very unbalanced. Some places were quite speechless.
Although Hua Xia was not a developed country, and could only be regarded as a developing country in China, at least Hua Xia people could not live without electricity. Not to mention electricity, people nowadays were so "extravagant" that they could not live without wireless internet.
If you go to Chad, Congo, Mali, Sudan, these countries, you will definitely go crazy.
Take a basic living resource like electricity, for a country like Chad, it was definitely a super luxury!
In a slightly remote province of this country, only the chief's office had electricity. Other places did not have electricity.
Looking at the simple and eager eyes of the people in that place, it felt so noble to bring electricity and light to them. However, the ending was so regrettable. Because of their poverty, no one would help with charity projects.
Only two percent of the residents in the country, and only nine percent of the households in the capital, had electricity. This was the horror of some places in Africa. One could imagine what the situation was like. This was a f * cking Central African country with a maximum temperature of 50 degrees!
In such a continent, even the most developed South Africa was very poor. Even the staff of the customs would extort money from people. Driving on the road could be stopped at any time by the police, accusing you of speeding and extorting money …
How could Ruan Qingshuang be at ease when Xu Yun said to go to this place?
She watched the news every day. How chaotic Africa was, how many people died in riots every day, how many countries were in chaos every day. This was simply unimaginable to normal people.
But even so, Xu Yun still managed to convince all of them.
Now that Xu Yun was alone in Beijing, even if someone was unwilling to stop him, it was impossible for them to do so.
In the end, Xu Yun would only do things his own way. Even if they could stop him now, he would think of other ways to do this.
Therefore, Ruan Qingshuang and the others thought it through. Since that was the case, it was better to let the people of the Dragon Brigade help him. This way, Xu Yun could at least get some help and would not have to solve everything by himself.
Other than paying attention to safety, no one could think of a better way to send Xu Yun off.
After convincing everyone, Xu Yun left all his personal belongings with the brigade.
If he went to sign up as a mercenary, he did not need anything.
After Xu Yun changed into a simple and clean grey military training uniform, he returned to Wan Kuangxiao's office to report to him.
Wan Kuangxiao looked at Xu Yun. "You're done with the arrangements so quickly?"
"Yes." Xu Yun nodded.
"Then do you still want to go see Yu Meiren? You came directly to my office after you came back. You haven't gone to the medical team yet, right?" Wan Kuangxiao said calmly.
Xu Yun thought for a moment. "Forget it. If I go see her, she will be worried. I'll just leave. She won't know what I'm doing. That way, she won't be worried."
"Do you think Yu Meiren's eyes are not good?" Wan Kuangxiao said. "Who in the brigade can afford to drive a Cayenne? You're the only one! Also, how can she not remember your license plate number? "
Xu Yun scratched his head awkwardly. Yes, Yu Meiren must have known that he was here when she saw his car.
And after he came, he did not stay in the brigade. He must have gone to do something.
"Even if Yu Meiren did not notice your car, do you think the guys in the brigade are blind? Or are they all mutes? " Wan Kuangxiao said, "Your reputation here is almost greater than mine. You haven't been here for a long time. You suddenly came back. Do you think no one will spread the news?"
Xu Yun was speechless.
Wan Kuangxiao sighed. "When the cafeteria opens in the afternoon, they will definitely whisper about your return. They will definitely anger the instructors so that they will all shut up. "
