African Nationhood

Natasha and her family of three got into a truck in order. The truck loaded twenty or thirty people and then started, carrying the people in the truck towards an unknown place.

The truck drove very steadily, and the road was full of sand. Because this place was so dry, the wheels would bring up a puff of smoke when it ran over it.

Sitting in the bed of the truck, she could look out through the wooden fence. Natasha took the opportunity to look out for a while and heard the baby in her arms crying.

She just realized what she was doing and quickly took out the black bread and fed it to her daughter. Her daughter refused to eat the black bread because it was very dry.

Looking at her daughter's chapped mouth, Natasha then remembered that she had forgotten to buy water at the dock just now, and the water she brought had been drunk long ago.

"Who has water? Can you give my daughter a drink? She's thirsty."

After asking several times but no one answered her, Natasha became discouraged.

A voice sounded from the corner, "Here you go."

Natasha looked at the corner and saw an old man with pale hair and beard. His kettle was obviously a military kettle with green paint on the body.

Natasha stood up, took the kettle, and said grateful thanks to the old man.

She unscrewed the stopper and carefully gave her daughter a sip, and then gave her son Andre a sip. She suppressed her thirst, put the stopper in place and returned it to the old man. She said thank you again, then returned and continued to give him a sip. The daughter was fed black bread.

The truck drove for about an hour and finally arrived at its destination. After getting off the truck, they saw a house with an Arabian style.

Along the way, they also saw some domed mosques and European churches. It was obvious that they were Italian churches. After all, Italy had colonized here for a long time.

“Everyone, please pay attention, this neighborhood is your future residential area.

I am Isinbayeva, the district director of this residential area.

You must remember clearly every word I say next, do you hear me? "

Isinbayeva is young and good-looking. She is tall, wearing a pale green short-sleeved blouse, an off-white skirt, and a pair of low-heeled leather shoes.

There is also a pair of glasses on her face, and she is as beautiful and intellectual as the female teacher in school.

The refugees present nodded obediently and answered "yes" in unison.

Seeing that everyone had answered, Isinbayeva nodded, "The rooms here need to be rented. You all need to weigh how you want to rent a house.

Some houses are larger, so you can share a house with several families, while some houses are small, only big enough for a family of three or four.

Prices vary depending on the size of the house. For example, the rent for a house owned by a wealthy businessman will be very expensive, while the price for a small house owned by a commoner will be much lower.

In addition, cooking here is all done by yourself. If you need flour, butter, or a stove, you need to pay for them yourself.

We have a service agency here, you can go to the service agency to purchase.

Okay, let me announce the room types. After you listen, you can make your own choice. "

Then Isinbayeva announced more than ten house types, most of which were small houses for ordinary people, but also large houses for wealthy businessmen.

The rent was ten times that of a civilian house. As a result, three families rented together and chose this wealthy businessman's house.

Natasha chose a small civilian home with a monthly rent of 100 yuan.

Such rent already made Natasha feel distressed. The more than 5000 yuan she had on hand could not last long.

But what can she do? The two children simply cannot live without people.

But she soon discovered a business opportunity. She discovered that not only she was taking care of her children, but other families were also taking care of their children.

If you can open a "child care center" to help other people take care of their children, you should be able to make money.

She had to think about this plan again, and then ask Isinbayeva if she could do it.

After choosing a house, someone soon took Natasha and her family to the rented house.

This residential area is not large, just enough to accommodate a hundred people.

Apart from the sandy road, there are only date palm trees left in the residential area. However, the Slavic woman who showed her the house told her that these date palms and coconut trees belong to the government and she should not pick them at will.

The house Natasha rented was a roadside mud house with only one main room and two small wooden sheds.

There was nothing in the main house, just a wooden bed with some straw on it.

The wooden shed can be used to store some sundries and the location of the kitchen.

There was nothing in the kitchen, only three stones and some dirt.

If you want to cook, you must buy your own rice pot, dishes, cutlery and forks.

The only comforting thing about this house is that the yard is large enough. The original owner raised livestock at home, so the area is very large.

In addition, there is a well in the yard, but you need to draw water yourself. The housekeeper told her to cover the manhole cover when not in use to prevent accidents to the children.

After Natasha heard it, she immediately remembered it in her heart. She must never forget this.

Before the housekeeper left, Natasha asked what she would do if she got sick.

The housekeeper told her that if you have a minor illness, it will heal if you endure it. If it is a serious illness, it is best to have someone familiar with the government here, otherwise your money will not be enough for medical treatment.

Natasha immediately felt cold after hearing this. The conditions here are almost the same as those in Russia. The only difference is that it is much hotter than Russia.
-
The mother and son spent the night peacefully in a home with a well.

The next day they heard a loudspeaker announcement telling residents to go to a meeting.

Natasha did not dare to delay and went there with her two children. When she arrived at the scene, she found that there were many people at the scene, more than 300 people.

It turns out there are so many people in this community, Natasha thought as she took her children to find a place at the end of the queue.

Although their family has just landed, the environment here is very stable, and their family slept very peacefully last night.

……

Isinbayeva changed her outfit today. She was wearing a blue short-sleeved shirt, jeans, and white flat shoes.

She sat on a high platform and spoke into the microphone: "Everyone is quiet. Now let's read out the resettlement directions and precautions for you."

Natasha listened for a while and found that the content was similar to what the bread stall owner said before.

In addition, the person in charge also warned all parents with children that there are many lakes here and there are crocodiles in the lakes and rivers. Everyone should be careful to prevent their children from falling into the lake and being eaten by crocodiles.

After hearing this, Natasha felt a chill in her heart. There was one more thing to note here.

……

As soon as Isinbayeva finished her announcement, someone asked, "What are the benefits of marrying and being a soldier?"

Isinbayeva immediately announced on the microphone: "Female refugees can immediately become South Chinese nationals after marrying a South Chinese, and then receive various preferential treatment from South Chinese.

For example, they can enjoy affordable medical care, free land distribution, and affordable school admission for their children.

Soldiers can enjoy military pay, military merit awards and free medical services. With these advantages, it is easier to get married.

Refugees do not enjoy any of the above benefits. "

After hearing what Isinbayeva said, everyone present was silent.

When they become refugees, they have no nationality and no national asylum unless they join South China.

However, Nanhua only accepted young people as soldiers and wanted young women to be Chinese wives.

What to do with these old and weak people? They can only go to work to make money and then struggle to survive on this land.

After Natasha heard the comments from people around her, she also understood Nanhua's intentions.

But she has not forgotten her husband, nor has she forgotten her dignity as the daughter of a wealthy businessman.

She will work hard to survive on this land and raise her children.

……

After Isinbayeva announced the regulations, she stood up and left.

Everyone watched as this fashionably dressed woman approached a car. She took out a crank handle from the car, and after pressing it a few times, she cranked the engine alone, and then got into the car and got into the car. Leave.

It wasn't until her car drove away that someone started talking about Isinbayeva's departure.

From the comments of others, Natasha learned that Isinbayeva was married to a South Chinese officer. Her husband had a high military rank and was said to be a captain.

Her family lives a very wealthy life. Not only does she have a car to travel around, she also has hundreds of acres of land.

From such a wealthy family, it is no wonder that her clothes and demeanor are very different.

……

After Isinbayeva left, two areas were immediately set up at the venue. One was to count people who were willing to marry, and the other was to recruit men as soldiers.

There are many people who are willing to marry and serve as soldiers. These people want to take shortcuts.

After Natasha took one look, she decisively left with the child.

She would go back to tidy up the house first, and then start the childcare center she had planned. (End of chapter)
