Chapter 1016 Founding Celebration (16)

Starting from April 2, while the people of Haihan were enjoying their holidays, a series of foreign affairs activities between Haihan and the envoys and representatives from various countries who attended the founding ceremony also kicked off.

During this celebration, most of the important countries in the South China Sea region had official or unofficial personnel come to Sanya. It was also an extremely rare international diplomatic opportunity for Haihan. To promote Haihan's political ideas to other countries,

Military alliances, cultural and educational systems, and financial and trade methods are the means that Haihan has always insisted on implementing in diplomatic activities, and they have also achieved quite good results in the past. Through these means, Haihan has continuously enhanced its international influence in the South China Sea.

Gradually some countries and regions have evolved into allies and supporters of Haihan. Until Haihan has a larger bureaucracy to govern a larger territory, maintaining the current friendly international relations is far better than occupying these areas through war.

Regions can bring more benefits.

The South China Sea Trade Alliance, which has signed a framework agreement before, also provides a dual platform for international exchanges between representatives of various countries in Sanya. Although this international organization based on a free trade agreement does not involve too much in the political and military fields, it

As long as trade channels can be opened, for Haihan, who has gradually become familiar with the operation of international affairs, it is actually just a little more cover-up. As long as countries that are not too hostile to Haihan have funds and materials

After establishing import and export channels, the relevant departments of Haihan will naturally try to open up the key links of the country's military and political agencies, gradually affecting the perception and attitude of the ruling classes of these countries towards Haihan.

The foreign affairs activities arranged by Haihan official agencies are also carried out according to the traditional four fields of politics, military, culture and business. In order to take care of the representatives sent by some countries who are too busy, these exchange activities are also specially planned to be carried out in alternating periods. In the four fields

There is only one official diplomatic event held on September 2, namely the South China Sea Trade Alliance and Regional Countries Development Summit.

Naturally, countries in this era don't quite understand what this so-called international summit means, but since the Haihan people want to engage in this event, based on their usual practices, it must be somewhat beneficial to the participating countries, even if they don't participate.

It is always worthwhile to listen and understand the situation, so representatives from various countries did not miss this meeting.

Haihan officials spent money to hold such an international conference, naturally not just to show off in front of representatives from various countries. The main purpose is to use this opportunity to establish an image of a "big brother" in international exchanges and control multi-national dialogues.

have the right to speak, and further promote the free trade system advocated by Haihan to other countries. For participants from other countries, it is important to strive for as many benefits as possible for their own countries in the trade with Haihan.

One of the main purposes of their coming to Sanya this time.

For local people in Sanya, although the place where political affairs are discussed is very close, national events are still far away from their lives. These days are rare public holidays in the year, so they naturally want to enjoy the excitement of Sanya.

Zhang Jinbao took his students from the small hotel in Sanya Port to Victory Port early in the morning. However, he did not come to the business district to join in the fun. The consumption level in Sanya far exceeds that of Danzhou, and prices during this festival have risen even more.

Awesome, Zhang Jinbao led a team of people, and their daily expenses were an amount that made him feel painful. He was reluctant to spend money on unplanned non-essential expenses. He brought the team here today with the intention of going to the Victory Fort to see Ning.

Qi, see if you can arrange an interview for some of your best students so that they can enter higher education institutions in Sanya.

But Zhang Jinbao was dumbfounded when he arrived outside Fort Victory. Unexpectedly, there were so many people here to do business. The queue to register outside Fort Victory was about half a mile long. Zhang Jinbao learned after asking several people that,

It turns out that the trade license issued by the Haihan Ministry of Commerce to foreign businessmen is due for annual review. Businessmen with certificates must complete the relevant review procedures in the next few days, while businessmen without certificates are taking advantage of the opportunity to come to Victory Port to watch the excitement.

You have the opportunity to submit an application to the Haihan official. However, you must first register here to complete the formalities, and then you can get your license plate to enter the Ministry of Commerce. Every time there are ten people, there will be a dedicated person to take them in.

Come here, there are so many people that you can only wait in line first. Zhang Jinbao waited in line for almost an hour, and finally it was his turn. The registration office at the door has a long desk and two clerks went through the formalities separately. There were a few people standing behind.

A heavily armed soldier. Behind the soldier is the drawbridge gate of Fort Victory.

Zhang Jinbao stepped forward and explained his intention. The clerk looked up at him and said, "Do you want to see Chief Ning? I'm afraid I won't be able to see you today. The chiefs are very busy these days and do not accept requests for meetings without an appointment."

Zhang Jinbao quickly begged for mercy: "I came here specially from Danzhou, and what I'm doing is official. Please be accommodating to me."

The clerk shook his head and said: "I can't help you with this. The rules are set by the authorities, and we just follow them. If you ask to see the chief, come back after the celebrations in the past few days are over."

Zhang Jinbao thought to himself that if this matter is delayed for one more day, I will have to spend one more day's expenses. This day's expenses are equivalent to half a month's expenses in Danzhou. The longer it is delayed, the higher the cost will be. We still have to try to get the matter done as soon as possible.

Only then, whether it will succeed or not is another matter.

At that moment, Zhang Jinbao came up with a plan and said: "Actually, it's like this. When Chief Ning went to Danzhou for inspection a few days ago, he met the villain and entrusted the villain to handle it. Chief Ning specifically asked the villain to arrive.

After Sanya, we must come to see him for recovery. If we can't see the leader, I'm afraid it will delay the official business and I can't afford it. I hope I can see clearly."

When the clerk heard this, he actually put down the brush in his hand, pulled another person to the side and muttered a few words, then came over and carefully asked Zhang Jinbao's name and origin, and asked Zhang Jinbao to wait aside first, waiting for him to go first.

Report the situation to your supervisor.

Zhang Jinbao is not afraid of being exposed. Only Ning Qi himself can confirm whether Ning Qi has asked him to do things. Although he met Ning Qi in Danzhou for a short time, he can confirm that this high-ranking official in the court

It's easier to deal with, and he won't put on too much official airs with the people. If he really reports to Ning Qi, he has a greater chance of getting an interview.

Zhang Jinbao waited for a while, and then he saw the clerk leading a young man with short hair out. When Zhang Jinbao saw this man with short hair and a short shirt, he was not sure whether he was a chief or a naturalized citizen, so he reported his family name first.

Said: "The villain Zhang Jinbao, the headmaster of Qiongxi Academy in Danzhou, has met the chief."

"This is Director Yu Xiaobao from the General Office of the Executive Committee." After the clerk introduced the identity of the visitor, he quickly sat back down and started busy with his work.

Yu Xiaobao, who is now twenty-three years old, is almost the same as a time traveler in terms of appearance, except for his slightly darker skin color, dress, words and deeds. He is also used to being regarded as a leader by ordinary people, so for Zhang Jinbao's small misunderstanding, he

He didn't take the time to defend himself, but asked directly: "Mr. Zhang, have you brought your ID?"

"Take it with you. I have a letter of introduction from Zhang Xin, the head of the Danzhou Management Committee." Zhang Jinbao quickly reached into his arms, took out a letter, and handed it over with both hands respectfully.

Yu Xiaobao took out the letter and read it carefully. The letter explained Zhang Jinbao's identity and the official business he planned to do in Sanya. It was signed by Zhang Xin and the official seal of the Danzhou Management Committee, which seemed to be correct.

It's true that Zhang Jinbao is not just bragging.

After reading it, Yu Xiaobao asked: "The letter said you brought a group of students here, where are they?"

"They're all here, they're all here!" Zhang Jinbao quickly waved to the distance and asked several of his students to come over.

After Yu Xiaobao saw that there was nothing wrong, he took them into Victory Fort. Of course, before entering the fort, a security check was still indispensable. Zhang Jinbao didn't care about such details at all. He only felt that there was something under his feet now.

It's so light. For the people of Haihan Kingdom, this Victory Fort is like a palace. The heads of the executive committee conduct their daily work here. I never thought that I would be lucky enough to set foot in such a special place.

However, the situation in the Fort of Victory is of course very different from Zhang Jinbao's previous imagination. Not to mention the eunuchs and maids, there are not even palaces with carved beams and colorful decorations. They are all bricks and stones with square shapes and gray tones.

The tallest structure of the small building is only three floors. Originally, there were some prefabricated houses built in the early days of Fort Victory. However, as the area controlled by Haihan expanded, all the prefabricated houses were dismantled and used on the front line. Fort Victory

The buildings inside have all become standardized shapes.

The appearance of this low-cost masonry structure house is indeed not beautiful. It is not that the executive committee wants to dig out the construction cost, but that there have been too many important infrastructure projects in the past few years and it has not been able to completely rebuild the headquarters.

Fortunately, the greening and sanitation work in the fort has been done well. There are rows of flower beds on both sides of the road. The fragrance of flowers is overflowing against the green trees. You can hear the chirping of birds from the treetops. The moat leads into the fort.

The running water stream inside is divided into several small creeks and gullies that pass through the fort, which is quite natural.

Zhang Jinbao noticed that although these buildings were simple in appearance, the windows were all made of glass, and they were large pieces of flat glass that were rarely seen on the market. This glass window probably cost him a month's living expenses. Zhang Jinbao noticed

Although Jin Bao also had a little money, only the study room at home had glass windows, which were made of small pieces of glass about two inches in size. Their value could not be compared with the windows in Victory Castle. Of course, this is reasonable.

Among other things, after all, Haihan Glass is produced in Sanya, so naturally we must use the best products in our own place.

In addition, the details that can make visitors notice the special nature of this place are the soldiers standing guard outside each small building and the white and black plaques with the name of the organization hanging outside the door. Yu Xiaobao will Zhang Jinbao and his party

They came to one of the small buildings and stopped in front of it. Zhang Jinbao saw the words "Haihan Culture and Education Ministry" written on the plaque hanging at the door, and knew that this was the place he had arrived.

However, Zhang Jinbao did not see Ning Qi right away. This was because Ning Qi was also one of the attendees at the summit held at Fort Victory today. Yu Xiaobao did not dare to disturb Ning Qi with such a trivial matter. At the moment, he could only

Take them to the Ministry of Culture and Education first and wait until there is a break during the meeting before reporting the situation to Ning Qi.

"The chief will come later. Please keep your words short and don't waste too much time. Do you understand?" Yu Xiaobao gave two special instructions before leaving.

Only then did Zhang Jinbao realize that this young man turned out to be a naturalized citizen with the same status as himself, but he was someone close to the chief, and his status was an official of the imperial court, which was not comparable to that of a commoner like him. At the moment, he still responded respectfully.

After getting off, Yu Xiaobao was sent away with great gratitude.

Zhang Jinbao and his students were sitting in the reception room of the Ministry of Culture and Education in an orderly manner, and they did not dare to move around. Although there were tea and desserts on the table, they did not dare to eat at will. It was the first time for them all to come to this kind of place.

Although Zhang Jinbao was familiar with prominent figures like Zhang Xin when he was in Danzhou, Victory Fort was not as "small" as Danzhou. Even Zhang Xin was writing letters of introduction to him.

When I arrived, I told him to pay attention to his behavior when he arrived at Fort Victory. There were many important departments there and there were many chiefs working there. When he arrived at the fort, he had to obey the arrangements and not move around to avoid unnecessary trouble.

trouble.

After waiting for about an hour, Ning Qi finally appeared in front of Zhang Jinbao. Zhang Jinbao stood up in a hurry and gestured to several students to quickly salute Ning Qi.

Ning Qi accepted the gift with a smile, sat down and said, "I was just having a meeting with envoys from various countries. Zhang Shan has been waiting for a long time."

Zhang Jinbao said hurriedly: "The chief is busy with everything, and state affairs are important. It's not a big deal for me to wait for a while. I came to Sanya this time because I want to apply to the chief for a few places for further study, so that these few disciples from the academy can

Sent to Sanya for further study."

A person in a high position like Ning Qi would naturally tell that the intention of this golden treasure was not so "innocent". According to the current system of the Haihan Ministry of Culture and Education, if the academy wants to send students to higher education institutions in Sanya,

Applications should be submitted to the local management committee first. The management committee will arrange a preliminary examination to confirm that the students recommended by the college are qualified. The management committee will then arrange the schedule and transportation to send the students to Sanya to register. Danzhou Management Committee

Although I wrote a letter of recommendation to Zhang Jinbao, it did not mention the preliminary examination. It only said, "Today, Zhang Jinbao, the principal of Qiongxi Academy, and seven students from the academy went to Sanya for inspection. I hope the relevant units will contact me."

This shows that the path Zhang Jinbao planned to take was not the right path, but that Zhang Xin took a back door for him.

Of course, it doesn't hurt to have some local flexibility. Zhang Xin's family is settled in Danzhou, and he has some relationship with these local dignitaries. Maybe he has some kinship with this gold treasure, so he can use it

It's not a big deal if I have the power in my hand to write him a letter of introduction. Anyway, the letter of introduction can only help Zhang Jinbao clear the way. In the end, the person who can make the decision is Sanya and not Zhang Xin. If you give him a favor, you don't have to bear too much responsibility.
Chapter completed!
