Thirteen.
The most taboo number in the West represents misfortune, disease, devil, hell, and Satan
After eating steak, pasta, pizza, and onion soup for many days, Li Feng finally couldn't stand it anymore .
A place where soft snails can be used as vegetables. Now he just wants to eat rice, and he noticed the 13th District, which is far away from the city center of the Tower, where Chinatown is located.
This is the area that the lady in maid uniform downstairs drew for him, and with a straight face she used her few British words "no, s" to warn him that it was best not to go there. , maybe she also experienced not good things there.
Li Feng doesn’t know much about the Iron Tower. The only movie he has ever seen is about Gaul, which was the violent neighborhood district 13. The director’s self-defeat was very successful. Unexpectedly, as fate would have it, the Iron Tower Chinatown would turn out to be... Stand here.
From the fear of the previous aunt and the warning from the maid downstairs, it can be seen that the neighborhood may indeed be violent, and it may have been decades ago today. A mixture of shadows.
In the movie, decades later, Li Feng still vaguely remembers that the area was filled with poverty, gangs, flour, and endless depravity
“I don’t recommend you go, Although you can eat hot rice there, you are easy to be robbed because of your appearance, and the prices are not cheap. At first, we planned to live there."
One of the chemical fiber team One of them said angrily after hearing Li Feng ask about the situation there. It seemed that he was also deeply hurt by some people.
"At least, you have to bring something with you. There are not only people from us over there, but also indigenous people from the south. They all have tiger tattoos on their bodies. They are very fierce."
Another One of them patted his waist, gave Li Feng a knowing look, and continued to talk. They had been here for so long, except when they didn't understand each other at the beginning. They had been there several times. Later, they were like hiding from the plague. I would rather spend more money and live in a place with good security near the tower than choose that place.
"They've all been robbed"
He scratched his chin and looked around, but they all nodded in unison, with an angry expression on their faces.
That’s right, they are all educated people. How can they fight and kill the opponents in the world? When they encounter the vicious people in the world, they probably adhere to the principle of a gentleman who talks but does not do anything and spends money to spend money. disaster.
"Bring less money"
As Li Feng and Lao Ge turned around and came out, someone in the room gave a final reminder.
Back in his room, Li Feng and Lao Ge stared at the map on the table. Lao Ge looked at Li Feng and took a step faster, grabbing it in his hand. , Roll it up into a barrel shape. Maybe the next room said it, and it also made you want to retreat.
"Why don't we go? In order to have a meal of rice, if we get into trouble, we have to eat it. How about some foie gras on a bread stick?Jiang, let’s just forget it.”
“What time is it? When will you take over?”
Li Feng didn’t say he was going, nor was he saying he couldn’t go. With a noncommittal look on his face, Li Feng raised the He raised his chin and motioned to Lao Ge to check the time.
"I'm not on duty tonight, it's my turn tomorrow night"
As if he had guessed Li Feng's plan, Lao Ge smiled sarcastically. , held it in for a long time before speaking out.
Li Feng pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were filled with pain, and with a hint of sadness, he stood in front of the window and said in a low voice.
"Lao Ge, tell me, why do our two countries establish diplomatic relations?"
The expression just now made Lao Ge feel that something was wrong, but he didn't expect Li Feng at this time. , unexpectedly brought up such a topic.
Lao Ge suddenly frowned. This question was beyond the scope of his knowledge. He could list it out in detail. But when it came to this kind of issue, he smacked his lips, and his mind became confused. The faint pain let him know that he couldn't think about it anymore.
"I didn't know that making friends wouldn't be easy. Make friends, didn't the old man say, the more friends you have, the more difficult the road will be."
Li Feng held his hands in his arms, turned around silently, and leaned his butt against the edge of the window sill.
"Yes, one more friend brings another road. After shaking hands, we can reach economic and trade exchanges and let more people in the world know that on the other side of the broken ball, there is a country called . ”
“We have an extra road, what about them who came here earlier?”
After a slight pause, Li Feng sighed deeply when he thought about the people on this side and the people on the other side. After taking a breath, I felt that I might be able to fully express what I meant by turning a corner.
"Lao Ge, if we are friends, I have a relative who wants to stay at your house one day. , the kind who came uninvited, he said, he is a very good relative of mine, will you receive him?"
"Yes, whoever is in trouble would not tell me that you are with me. "Relationships, even if it's just a stranger, just a simple meal, you must be looking down on me. My salary is not much, but I can still afford this little ration money."
Lao Ge's habit He lit a cigarette, and after listening to Li Feng's words, he looked into his eyes and said without thinking.
After finishing speaking, he blinked in confusion, not sure what he was doing just now. Talking about shaking hands and establishing diplomatic relations, why did the conversation end up here again?
"No, he is my relative, but he will not leave. He will live here and eat and drink for free. I don’t even pay you for the food, do you think it’s okay?”
Now Lao Ge took a deep drag on the cigarette, rolled his eyes at Li Feng, and spread his hands directly.
"If your relatives come to the capital, they can go to my house instead of yours for two or three days. But your sister-in-law's temper is not to mention that your official is higher than mine. Even if the King of Heaven comes, she will have to fight with me. ”
“If you don’t pay for food, then you won’t have to pay for food.” Li Feng continued to pursueasked.
"I can't control it. I can eat at the station, but I can't stand it if it happens every day. You have to pay a little bit. At least you have to make up for the food stamps. This is not what I want from you. I I have to shut up your sister-in-law."
Lao Ge shook his head. He has to make the decision on this matter without authorization. I'm afraid, it's just a small thing for a wife to be upset, and the little bastards at home may have to make trouble. God.
"What kind of relative are you?"
After finishing speaking, Lao Ge glanced sideways at Li Feng, with a look of rejection on his face, and his eyes revealed a look of disgust. , it seems that he still hasn’t understood what Li Feng said.
“Do you think the people left here look like my poor relative?”
“They have no identity and do not get any recognition. The Lu authorities have paid taxes, but I'm afraid they have to hide to earn some money. Otherwise, if they are robbed or stolen, will they be like a few of them, without even having a place to control? Maybe, just like those gypsies. Just the same, disappearing out of thin air will not cause a ripple."
At this moment, he understood the example Li Feng had just given to him. Lao Ge's brows knitted together. There was no way to solve these things. He couldn't. Li Feng had no choice but to take care of his own family now, let alone the people who came here for various reasons.
"In the past few decades, they traveled across the ocean and came here. Whether they were deceived by others voluntarily or for other reasons, what we thought of was that we were afraid of them and were unwilling to go there. Avoid the dark side of District 13, but what about those who are in the darkness? If we don’t care, whether their children and grandchildren will inherit their father’s legacy from generation to generation, continue to steal and steal, and become iron towers. Next, the new gypsy"
Li Feng's words instantly seemed to tear open a bloody piece. Under the street corners of the bustling city, there are still lingering scars. The same people, saying the same words , here it may be tens of thousands, it may be one hundred thousand, it may be hundreds of thousands.
No one has counted the specific number of people, not to mention their careers, good luck, marrying locals, integrating into local life, children can go to school, injured can go to the hospital, even if they encounter problems, You can also go to the police station to find the police openly.
But those who did not integrate into it, but instead stayed together for warmth, I am afraid that many can only live in the dark side of the city, accepting the indifference of the Gallic authorities, because no one recognizes them. No formal status.
Of course, it is undeniable that there are also people who rely on their craftsmanship to make a living, but these are generally honest people. When faced with being bullied, they can only choose to swallow their anger.
Furthermore, Li Feng firmly believes that those who are skilled in craftsmanship will not easily starve to death in troubled times, and generally will not choose to wander overseas.
"What do you want to do?"
Twisting his body on the chair, Lao Ge had to admit that what Li Feng said still makes sense. Isn't this just because of the old Is the incompetence of dust the result of only coveting for pleasure?
New people, new things, and a new country, if you still turn a blind eye to them, they, like the relatives Li Feng said, will eventually be despised by the Gaul family. Over time, the impression of the local residents will definitely deteriorate.
Both parties shook hands as equals, but with so many relatives messing around outside, in the end it was the family's reputation that was ruined, which ran counter to the original intention of shaking hands.
We want to make friends, and Li Feng can be sure that the pace of establishing diplomatic relations between the two countries will surface in just two months.
Now that we have become friends, at least we must take more responsibility than the bad friends Gaul made before.
