Chapter 560: Night Tour

Everyone disembarked at the port and parted ways. The sheriff took a few people to the airport to pick up the containers, while Nan Ming and the others went directly to the CBD area of ​​Manila. After a tour, they planned to stay in the hotel.

Gundam had seven or eight jeeps and two buses in Manila. At this time, a bus was transferred to transport Nan Ming and others. Gundam's twenty or thirty mercenaries got into the jeep, shouting and supporting him.

Most people in the northern Philippines believe in Catholicism. After leaving the port area, various churches can be seen everywhere. Most of the churches have long been in disrepair and some are dilapidated, but under the night, they have a different flavor. Everyone was very curious, so they stopped the car.

Zhang Feilin held the camera and took photos here and there. Chen Haocong frightened her and said: "I heard that there are many robbers in Manila. You are taking hundreds of thousands of cameras and taking random photos. Be careful of being robbed!"

In the end, Zhang Feilin was not frightened, but Qi Minglai was a little frightened. Qi Minglai looked around nervously, dragged Zhang Feilin and said, "Sister Feilin, it's better not to shoot..."

Zhang Feilin gave Chen Haocong a blank look, and then looked at the bomb who followed Nan Ming step by step.

Zhang Feilin and Nan Ming have gone through all kinds of storms together, besides, now that there are bombs protecting them, who would dare to trouble them?

Bomb grinned, his white teeth gleaming in the dark night: "Don't worry, madam, Manila is safe."

His waist was bulging, and a large-caliber pistol was hidden under it, and the jeep behind him carried a large number of weapons.

The Philippines is a country with free guns, which is one of the reasons why Gunball chose the Philippines as its temporary base.

Of course, many blocks are not allowed to enter with guns, and inspections are required when entering and exiting.

There are many super-large shopping malls covering several blocks in Manila, most of which are run by Chinese. The law and order in these areas is very good, and there is almost no danger.

For example, S M mall, the largest shopping mall in the Philippines, was opened by Chinese. At first it sold shoes, and it was called shoe mall. Later, when it became bigger, it was changed to S M mall. It also exists in many cities in China. Another lesser-known one is Shanghai Both Haojia and Yonghe Dawang are from the Philippines, and of course the boss is also Chinese.

The Chinese only account for 2% of the Philippine economy, but they dominate the entire Philippine economy. There is a saying: The Chinese stand aside, and the poor cook... It is indecent, but it is correct.

But in other neighborhoods, it is not so safe, there may be robbery at any time, especially at night.

Local Filipinos always hold two mobile phones, one functional straight machine, which is used to make and receive calls, and is almost never taken out outdoors. Carrying a mobile phone that is too good will attract robbers.

Along the way, the car was not fast. Whenever Zhang Feilin raised the camera, the driver would slow down or simply stop. Driving on the streets of Manila, there are usually high-rise buildings on the left with shining lights, and the awning on the right Nothing compares to the dilapidated shantytowns. Zhang Feilin was not interested in the brightly lit high-rise buildings, but was more interested in the shantytowns.

Near a dark and pitch-black shanty town, Zhang Feilin raised the camera again, Nan Ming raised his hand slightly, and the driver obediently stopped the car and turned off the lights.

Looking out from the car window, there are almost no street lights outside. Under some dim lights, many children are running around in naked clothes. Fortunately, this is a tropical country, so there is no need to worry about being frozen.

However, once a typhoon passes through, these shantytowns in the Philippines will become particularly unlucky, and many people will die every time a typhoon passes through.

Seeing them, Qi Minglai said: "They are so pitiful..."

Minglai has suffered a lot since she was a child, but this still cannot hinder her kindness.

"They are not pitiful, miss." Cheng Ning said, he followed the crowd, mostly acting as translators and tour guides, and said: "Many Filipinos are lazy, they hope to be saved by God after death, but Never put in the effort…”

Nan Ming shook his head slightly. The reason why these people are so poor is that the Filipinos are lazy on the one hand, but on the other hand, it is because of the government's inaction or even misconduct.

There is almost no mature heavy industry in the Philippines, and the light industry is mostly based on OEM processing. Their pillar industry is actually fruit export. The Philippine soil farms have sovereign money, and they continue to buy fields at low prices and turn them into farms, and they lose a lot. Farmers from the land poured into the city, but such a city with a very underdeveloped industrialization could not consume so much labor at all, coupled with bureaucratic corruption and inaction, resulting in a large number of poor people.

Most of the farmers are Filipinos, and they are constantly crowding out the living space of other Filipinos. Most of the people engaged in business and industry in the Philippines are Chinese. They are constantly creating more value and jobs, but they are squeezed out by the government. It can only be said that they have touched the interests of farmers who represent the most important class in the Philippines.

In addition, the Philippines was once a colony of the United States, and anti-China is also a political need. They need the support of American fathers.

But in general, the low status of the Chinese in the Philippines is still very high, and most people are very enthusiastic about the Chinese.

Because they believe in Catholicism and American-style freedom and equality, Filipinos are simple and happy, and treat others with enthusiasm, but without the unity and progress of Americans, it is not surprising that they are poor.

One of the most typical examples is that the Philippines is paid weekly, and most people have already spent all their money on Wednesday.

If Filipinos were paid a monthly salary, it is estimated that half of them would starve to death in a month.

The lack of progress in the Philippines has almost become a chronic disease. Not only is life difficult for Filipinos, but the low status in the world has also plummeted.

When World War II just ended, the Philippines was one of the richest countries in Asia. In the 1970s and 1980s, the Philippines almost squeezed out Hong Kong and became one of the four Asian tigers. Manila was even called Little New York. One of the poorest countries in Asia, Manila has also become the most chaotic city in the Philippines.

Twenty years ago, a Filipino maid could earn 4,000 Hong Kong dollars, roughly equivalent to 5,000 RMB. At that time, many Chinese could only earn hundreds or thousands of dollars a month.

Twenty years later, a Filipino maid can still earn 4,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is roughly equivalent to 3,000 RMB. Now, many Chinese earn tens of thousands a month.

Even so, many Filipino maids still like to go out, because in the Philippines, being a Filipino maid can only earn about 800 yuan a month, not to mention the terrible unemployment rate of more than one-third.

Probably because the car stopped, a few bold Filipino kids approached, Nanming asked for a few pesos from Gundam and handed them to Qi Minglai, Qi Minglai got out of the car and distributed some coins to the Several children.

"Boss is a good guy." Cheng Ning said.

Nan Ming squinted and smiled, is he a good person? He just prefers to guard the goodness of these children.

In the distance, several figures were wandering around, as if they wanted to get closer. Bomb got out of the car and stood behind Qi Minglai, and those people disappeared without a trace.

Behind kindness, there is always strength supporting it.

The car continued to move forward, and just arrived at the CBD area, when Bomb's phone rang, he answered a few words, lowered his voice, and said to Nan Ming: "Master, there is something wrong with the container at the airport."

Now the mercenaries of the bullets call Nan Ming differently. Cheng Ning and others often call Nan Ming the boss, and sometimes call him sir. Only Bomb calls Nan Ming master, Zhang Feilin madam, and others Talents are sir, lady and ma`am.

Master, there are many meanings in English, the two most common meanings are master and master.

In fact, because blacks used to be black slaves in history, they are quite sensitive to the title of master, and almost never call others that way. Nan Ming doesn't understand why Bomb calls him this way, but he is also used to these messy titles, so he doesn't bother to tangle.

"What's going on?" Nan Ming was most worried about the problem of the container.

"When I declared at the customs, I filled in the marine generator, but after the inspection by the customs, I found that it did not match the customs declaration, and wanted to detain this equipment!"

Nan Ming frowned deeply.

"What's wrong?" Nan's father and Nan's mother asked quickly when she saw Nan Ming's expression was not good.

"It's nothing, I need to go back to deal with something on board." Nan Ming patted Zhang Feilin's arm lightly, told her to take care of everyone, got into a jeep, and left with a bomb. (To be continued.)
