1327 The Place With the Lowest Happiness Index (2)
Luan Qingyang and Irene couldn’t help but nod gently when they heard that. Although this was the first time the two of them had set foot on the East African continent, they were not completely ignorant of this place. They could often see the news here on television.
Even in this era, many people on the East African continent were still living a very primitive life. The terrifying cannibal tribes still existed and were very common on this continent.
Hua Chu’s car was parked by the road. It was an army green jeep. At this moment, a group of children was surrounding the car.
Seeing the two White faces and the Asian Hua Chu, the group of children surrounded them like a swarm of bees. Their thin bodies raised their slender arms high, as if they were asking for something.
Hua Chu was already used to everything here and knew what the children’s actions meant. He took out money from his pocket generously and distributed it to the children with a smile. He explained, “The children here like to surround and beg when they see foreigners. You just have to give them something. They can eat and use anything. They don’t just want money.”
When Luan Qingyang and Irene heard this, they took out money from their pockets. It was not to do as the Romans do, but they felt these children were very pitiful.
After receiving the money, the children smiled one by one. Their dark skin accentuated their white teeth, and their eyes were incomparably bright with joy. They bowed to them politely.
Hua Chu waved his hand, and the group of children ran away cheering.
Luan Qingyang sighed and shook his head gently, but he said nothing. Region determined the living environment. The East African continent did not have nothing. There were many mining areas here. More than sixty-five percent of the diamonds in the world were mined from the East African continent, including gold and other minerals.
However, the technology conditions here were not developed enough, and the development was slower. They could only earn money by selling the mines to foreign companies and governments.
Coupled with the harsh weather conditions on the East African continent, there were only a few crops here. This was the key to the low happiness index. However, it was admirable that these East African natives could survive on this continent for so many years.
After getting into the car, the driver was also a local Black man. Hua Chu introduced him as Amon, the driver assigned to Hua Chu in this country.
“We’re going to the Chinese Embassy in Kenya now. You can stay there for the next few days. The security here is not good, so it’s relatively safer to stay in the embassy,” Hua Chu explained.
Luan Qingyang and Irene nodded slightly when they heard this. Then, they looked out of the window. As they passed by the crowded city area, the houses outside the window gradually became sparse.
After about an hour of driving, the car drove into a special area. Exquisite and clean Western buildings were built side by side, and there were flags of various countries hanging at the door.
This should be the embassy.
“In order to promote diplomatic relations, the Head of State of Kenya ordered to build this embassy area,” Hua Chu said again.
The car drove through one of the doors. The two of them followed Hua Chu out of the car and walked towards the Western building in front.
Hua Chu led the way and said, “I’ll take you to your rooms first and ask the chef to make something to eat. We’ll talk while eating.”
Although Hua Chu was just an ordinary member of the ancient sect, he had been in a prominent position for many years, so he developed an aura that could not be ignored.
