Chapter 189 185. The Arrival of the Maori (79)
Sitting in the car, Hugo and Benjamin chatted, mostly recalling missions in Afghanistan, Iraq and Africa.
Wang Bo is very interested in their experiences. He also had the idea of serving as a soldier, but he knew that being a soldier in China was completely different from what he had imagined, so this could only be an idea.
It's a pity that he has to respect other people's privacy. New Zealanders care about privacy very much, and conflicts caused by violations of privacy are often serious.
Even if he wanted to understand this, he hurriedly left after listening to a few words.
The two chatted in the car for more than an hour. Pharaoh took on the role of a waiter and brought them coffee, sausages, cookies, butter cakes and other snacks several times.
Later, he was bored, so he walked into the home of Dabing and his son.
He had been here before, and the small building was decorated very warmly, without any military atmosphere. There were succulents and other flowers and plants on the balcony, on the tables, and in the corners, and occasionally there were a few small dolls.
Gerald was engrossed in teasing the two puppies when he entered the room. These two puppies have big heads. Although they are chubby, they have a fierce look on their faces, very sturdy.
Lao Wang knew that this was a pitbull puppy, a very fierce medium-sized dog, often used as a fighting dog.
He didn't seem to notice him entering the door. The soldier kid kept his eyes on the two puppies, and the two stupid puppies ignored the stranger who entered the door, holding his palms and gnawing on them.
Wang Bo wandered around inside, and finally left. He still didn't say a word, but just glanced out of the window. His handsome face was slightly gloomy. Obviously, he noticed Hugo's arrival.
Hugo left after chatting with Benjamin, and Wang Bo gave him a ride. On the way, the nobleman said, "You must be curious about the relationship between me and their father and son."
"Actually, I'm more curious about why Gerrard's personality is a little bit wrong, and I'm also curious about your experience." Old Wang said truthfully.
Hugo smiled, and said lightly, "I don't have anything to say about my experience. I served as a soldier in the Royal Army for five years, and then went to the French Foreign Legion for two years. That's it, a very simple life trajectory."
It sounds simple, but Lao Wang believes that his military life is certainly not simple.
It's a pity that Hugo didn't go into details, nor did he tell him what happened to Gerald. Perhaps in his heart, Wang Bo was just a new friend, not a good friend who could confide in everything.
Hugo was sent away, and within a few days, the Maori of the Atulu family finally came to the town.
Their clan numbered exactly one hundred, and Sanders had underestimated his girlfriend's clan. The arrival of these people means that the town has more than 100 people and can become a secondary town.
The first-level towns with less than 100 people have no specific town government departments, but only three committees of management, supervision and audit. And the second-level towns with more than 100 people and less than 500 people also have these three committees, and they can also list the police station separately.
Supervision and inspection is always a political theme in New Zealand. There are four civil servants in first-tier towns, and six in second-tier towns. Two more police officers can be added.
Wang Bo took several people under his command to meet the Maori people. They were not led by the patriarch Atulu, but the old lady Otutu, the priest.
The old lady was quite old, and she was also buried in the rubble during the earthquake. Later, the strong man found her and dug her out. Lao Wang remembered that she was in a very bad condition at that time, and she didn't have the energy to speak.
Now that we meet again, the old lady's spirit has become much more vigorous. When we met, she was still smoking a pipe with her eyes squinted...
Seeing Wang Bo and the young man, the old lady took off her pipe and approached them formally. Old Wang swallowed with difficulty and touched noses, which was about to be done.
To be honest, it would be very stressful for Pharaoh to rub noses with an old lady whose face is wrinkled like a walnut. It would be fine if it was a young girl or boy.
Fortunately, the old priest let him go, she bowed her head to kiss the young man's nose.
The strong man was very sensitive, so he ran away with his tail between his legs in fright, but the old Wang, out of a ruthless mind, took the strong man back very badly, and the old priest held his head and rubbed it hard on the nose.
Atulu came over later and wanted to touch noses with Wang Bo. He also explained: "Mayor, don't blame my grandmother, your rank is too low to deserve her nose touches, but you can touch me."
Seeing the expression on the fat man's face that he has taken advantage of you, Lao Wang wanted to cry, he wished that his rank was lower, he was uncomfortable touching noses with the old lady, and it was also unpleasant to touch noses with this fat fat man all over his body.
What made him even more upset was that the ninety-eight Maoris in the back pinched their noses, and Pharaoh was frightened to death: "Xue Te, didn't you touch noses one by one?"
The fat man showed an expression that you took advantage of it, and said, "Of course, otherwise how can we express our gratitude to you and respect to the mayor?"
Lao Wang felt like mourning for his concubine, but he couldn't show it yet, so he smiled and waited for each of them to touch their noses.
With a sad face!
Bowen, Hani, and the pretty Mexicans smiled gloatingly at the side, and Atulu waved warmly to them: "Comrades in the future, you also have a share. Come on, line up, and I'll touch your nose."
Several people couldn't laugh anymore, Hani shouted: "What do I, I, have to do with us?"
Atulu also had an expression that you took advantage of: "Because you are my future colleagues, according to our Maori tradition, when you meet an important colleague for the first time, you have to touch your nose."
Charlie quickly put aside himself: "I'm not, I'm not, I'm just watching the fun."
As soon as his nose was knocked down, Wang Bo kept wiping his eyes. He was not exaggerating, his nose was sore, and tears flowed down his face.
For ordinary guests, the Maori nose touching ceremony ends with a light rub, but for precious guests, they really hit it!
Lao Wang felt that the bridge of his nose was broken, and his appearance was greatly reduced.
When he complained so much, the handsome Mexican rubbed his nose and comforted him: "Boss, you think too much, your face value is actually higher after bumping your nose like this—well, to be honest, it did lose a little bit, but at most Two points."
With the ability of a pretty boy to flatter, he can't speak nonsense against his conscience.
Bowen muttered: "The boss's face value was 61 points before, and now he has 59 points after subtracting two points. He was still on the passing line, but now he is failing."
"Fack!"
After the nose-bumping ceremony, it was time for him to resettle these new residents.
Wang Bo wanted them to live in the residential area under construction, but Atulu refused: "We don't live in buildings, boss, we Maori have our own thatched huts."
"The residential area on the west side of China Road is just an open space, you can build there."
"Boss, forget it, let's redraw a piece of land, you know we like to play, if it is too close to the residential area, it will easily affect them, and there will be a lot of conflicts at that time." Atulu said seriously.
