Think again about why he insists on using that self-modified command vehicle.

"Good morning Mr. Andrew, how was your rest last night?"

"Mr. Li, good morning"

Andrew smiled and shook hands with Li Xuewu, and then raised his hand to indicate that they should go together.

"I like this place very much, especially the Haihe River in the distance."

He turned his head and glanced at Li Xuewu, and then said: "The staff rest area is well prepared and worth the money."

"Of course"

Li Xuewu made a gesture to Peng Xiaoli, reminding him that he could open the door, but he said with a smile: "The rent of five thousand yuan cannot be wasted."

"Hahaha~"

Andrew smiled and walked down the steps and got into the car with Li Xuewu.

Zhou Gancheng said something to Gao Yaqin and Liu Shaozong, and got into the co-pilot ahead of Peng Xiaoli.

Peng Xiaoli didn't care when he saw him like this, and asked the other two leaders to get into the car behind him.

Sha Qizhi took all this into consideration, and while arranging the entourage to get into the passenger car at the back, he explained a few words to the officer next to him.

Two cars and one bus drove along the street in front of the Trade Management Center to the dock road not far away.

Yesterday, I stood on the third floor and looked at the yachts by the river. It was naturally close, but if I really had to walk to the pier, it would take more than ten minutes.

The key is that the road to the pier is not suitable for walking, so you can only travel by car.

Just like that, three cars stopped at the entrance of the pier.

The Foreign Affairs Office had already made reception arrangements here, and Andrew's captain and his crew were standing on the ship to greet them.

The steel rolling mill was represented by Li Xuewu, accompanied by Xia Zhongquan, three shipbuilding experts and several service personnel.

Only the person in charge of the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was accompanied by one officer.

The rest are Andrew's people, including accompanying secretaries, technical surveying and mapping personnel, engineering management personnel, etc.

This yacht is said to be able to accommodate 8 people for around-the-clock rest, which means rest, the kind of complete relaxation.

So there were more than 20 people on board this yacht and didn't feel crowded.

As the person in charge of the Foreign Affairs Office, Sha Qizhi only sent them here, and he will also welcome them back at this dock tomorrow.

The yacht is really not big when you look at it from upstairs. Even though Andrew said that the length is nearly forty meters, most people still have no idea.

Only when you stand on the dock or inside the boat can you feel its ability to load...it can be loaded!

"Don't be polite, please find a place to sit first."

In the yacht living room, Andrew smiled and invited everyone to sit down. The four-person sofa was very comfortable. Although Liu Shaozong and Gao Yaqin were also cadres in the ministry, this was the first time they had seen such luxury.

There is a living room, bar and wine table in the cabin, which is larger than their living room.

Zhou Gancheng has seen good things because of his work, but he has never seen such a high-end yacht.

Everyone stood in the living room and looked at this and that, no matter how reserved they were, they were all full of curiosity and admiration.

Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun stood beside Li Xuewu, admiring the interior of the living room, especially the shelves in the bar, which were full of various foreign wines.

"Go and play, you're welcome"

Andrew was very hospitable and generous. He gave way to the three girls with a smile, and then gestured to Li Xuewu: "Mr. Li, let me show you around my ship."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It's an honor"

Li Xuewu smiled slightly. Although he was not curious about yachts, he had never studied them carefully before.

During the years when he was working in Africa, this thing was often parked at the docks, and he was always willing to sit on it.

Even the so-called big lobster, he ate it until he never wanted to eat it again.

But that's not the case now. Yachting has become his job. He knows himself and his enemy, not to mention the active invitation from his partners.

Li Xuewu patted Zhou Xiaobai on the shoulder and motioned for them to play here, and nodded to Peng Xiaoli, motioning him to take care of the guests here.

Just as he was about to turn around and follow Andrew into the boat, Zhou Gancheng greeted him and followed him.

"I'll accompany you"

"good"

Li Xuewu also looked back at him, and then nodded slowly.

Zhou Gancheng was very responsible, but he also knew the rules. He followed the two of them without saying a word, and just acted like an invisible person.

Andrew didn't pay attention to him. He knew the working procedures of foreign affairs personnel in the mainland and he had no ulterior secrets here.

“This is a restaurant”

Andrew smiled and introduced: "Look at the decoration and layout here, they are exactly the same as my home in Italy."

He said with some emotion: "In order to understand my pain of leaving home and my worries about missing my family, my father deliberately recreated the original appearance of the restaurant at home."

"Look!"

Andrew clicked on the tableware in the dining room cupboard and said with a smile: "Even these tableware styles are the same as those my mother uses every day."

"Great Fatherly Love"

Li Xuewu appropriately praised and affirmed that billionaires also value family and parent-child relationships.

Especially those old families in Europe attach great importance to family inheritance. Italians are considered to have the strongest sense of family among Europeans.

Of course, you have to have money to do what he is seeing and hearing now. If you don't have money, it would be sheer nonsense to say that you would replicate your family's restaurant on the ship.

Just these silver main tables, classical decorative murals, and old-fashioned furniture can buy a house in the capital.

Of course, these are the housing prices in this era.

"Looking at what you introduced, I am so envious that I want to take a long trip across the ocean."

After finishing speaking, Li Xuewu spread his hands, pursed his lips and added: "But unfortunately, I know that my dad has no money, so it is impossible for me to move our family's restaurant to a boat."

"Hahaha!"

Andrew laughed loudly at his amusement, and the two of them communicated smoothly in French, regardless of whether Zhou Gancheng, who was watching the Western scene behind him, understood or not.

Obviously, Zhou Gancheng understood, because he was watching Li Xuewu arrange his father with speechless eyes while laughing at himself.

In this era, both ordinary people and cadres have a kind of blind self-confidence.

Even if you are not as good as others, you should also emphasize some advantages. If there are really no advantages, then emphasize the spirit of not admitting defeat.

There are few people like Li Xuewu who can admit so frankly that his financial strength is not as good as the other person's, and he can deal with the other person's showing off in a joking tone.

What makes Andrew happy the most and what surprises Zhou Gancheng the most is that Li Xuewu is using these realities to laugh, but he does not show any inferiority complex.

I envy you that you are rich, but I do not admire you, nor do I want to fawn over you, nor do I emphasize that young people should not be bullied when they are poor, because I will be like this in thirty years, because I have no ambition and will lose my status.

At this point, Zhou Gancheng was stunned and didn't say anything. At least when he got on the boat, everyone was surprised, except Li Xuewu who was observing carefully.

What's more, Li Xuewu's eyes were clear, without excitement or jealousy, and he was very calm.

This kind of calmness is not something that ordinary people can possess. Even someone like him who often travels abroad has never seen a yacht. Li Xuewu can hold back his surprise, what a big heart and firm belief.

Only with confidence can you be calm.

Andrew just admired his poor and unruly virtues and couldn't understand where his confidence came from, so he always respected him.

"Let's go, let me take you to see the power cabin and the cab."

He took Li Xuewu's arm, gestured to the door, and walked to the cab first.

"The ship is about to set sail, and I will take you to experience the world's most advanced cabin."

He's still showing off, but he has the capital.

Li Xuewu did not understand ship driving technology, let alone shipping management knowledge.

However, the gap between mainland ship driving technology and foreign countries can be seen from the degree of electrification of the cabin and cab.

He has been to the cockpit of Dongfeng Shipping's cargo ship, and it is definitely not as neat and advanced as this yacht.

Of course, this does not exclude the fact that the position he is currently standing on is on a high-end yacht.

From the dazzling array of instruments and equipment on the bridge, you can feel that high-end yachts are not fake.

Looking at Li Xuewu's inquiring eyes, Andrew took him and introduced to him the functions of these instruments and equipment one by one without affecting the crew's control.

Li Xuewu stood behind the captain and experienced firsthand the standardized process of a ship from starting up to leaving the dock and entering the channel.

This is a completely different experience from when he drove the tin boat in Yangcheng, just like the difference between riding a motorcycle and driving a four-wheeled car.

"Can you feel the vibration and noise coming from the engine bay now?"

Andrew smiled and stamped the floor under his feet, shook his finger and introduced to Li Xuewu: "Actually, the loudest noise under the cabin of the ship is the engine. The only ones that can rival it are General Luo Xian and the engine."

“The yacht’s power cabin has been fully insulated to reduce residual noise and vibration.”
