What he looks forward to most are the vegetables and fruits that come every two months from merchant ships. Although these vegetables and fruits are no longer fresh, for Ambassador Wu, these are the delicacies of the world.

This happened in the late 1980s, so we cannot envy diplomats from the perspective of future generations.

Similarly, the poorest region in the world is in Africa, and the Republic of Sierra Leone is the poorest country in Africa. The entire country is basically in a primitive state.

Except for blood diamonds and gold, there is nothing else. In this way, the industry is controlled by a few people, and the citizens cannot enjoy this benefit.

The local people are poor and very lazy. Large tracts of land are empty. To grow some food, they just scatter the seeds randomly without plowing or fertilizing. How much they can harvest depends on God's will.

What to do if you don’t have enough to eat? Then grab it.

How to rob? Then go to war. Anyway, sell the diamonds and gold, and exchange them all for weapons. Then today you attack me, and tomorrow I will attack you, and fight to the death all day long.

A country with a population of more than 10 million, after several years of civil war, was suddenly reduced to more than 5 million, which is more than half the number.

The entire country does not produce food. Similarly, the medical resources can only be described as "horrible".

Let’s take the capital as an example. There is only one large hospital, which is not even as large as the Vietnam-China Hospital. It basically only serves local dignitaries in Sierra Leone.

What should ordinary people do when they get sick? They can rely on magicians, witch doctors, and herbs that dogs won’t drink to cure their illnesses.

Anyway, if it is cured, it will be the power of God. If it cannot be cured, it is because you have committed too many sins and deserved it. Therefore, the average life expectancy of the entire country is only 32 years old.

If it is unprofitable, international capital will not come. Even if you and your family have a bad idea, they will not raise their eyebrows.

Unless oil is discovered beneath your home, capital will focus on you.

But wealth is a double-edged sword. If wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few people, such a country will still fall into civil strife.

Of course, China is different. China is a responsible big country and wants to make friends with poor people all over the world, and it makes real friends.

So the Chinese medical team came with their own medicines and medical equipment to treat African people free of charge.

It's a pity that what welcomed Chen Qi and the others was not the singing and dancing fellow Zhou people, but an empty, dilapidated, and basically abandoned camp.

In addition to the wild dogs that can be seen everywhere, the entire camp is full of weeds and maybe venomous snakes. In short, this is not a place for humans.

Chen Qi pulled his suitcase and looked at the home in front of him for the next two years. He really wanted to turn around and go back to China right away.

Captain Qi also swallowed his saliva, not knowing how to describe his inner shock and disappointment, but as the leader of the team, he could only encourage the team members:

"Comrades, this situation makes me feel like I have returned to the time when I graduated from college and went to work in the countryside. This place looks pretty good. Back then, I went to the Loess Plateau, where there were very few green plants. Everything was everywhere.

Bare loess slope.

At least there are green grass and vibrant weeds here, and the sound of waves in the distant sea seems to say welcome, welcome to guests like us who have come from afar, so don’t be disappointed, our homeland needs us.

Created by hand.

Come on, everyone, listen to my order and put down your luggage. The first day we arrive in Sierra Leone is to build our own hospital and our own home. This is such a meaningful thing. Come on.
