Chapter 256 Popular Candidates
Seeing Qin Tian thinking deeply, Lu Wan couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, don't think so much, no matter what those people do, it has nothing to do with us."

If it wasn't for the public and it was still at the airport, Lu Wan would have to teach the man a lesson, but she didn't want to get her hands dirty because of this kind of person.

After what happened just now, Qin Yue'er and the others' interest was completely disturbed, and they were not as excited as they were at the beginning.

After coaxing for a long time, Lu Wan walked out of the airport and saw the unique buildings and scenery outside, and the smiles appeared on the faces of several children again.

Byzantium has a long history and culture. Because of the unique climate and terrain, the cultural buildings here are well preserved, most of which are preserved in the Middle Ages.

It is full of rich ancient culture and religious meaning, so it has gradually formed a unique landscape, attracting tourists, and the local costumes are also quite distinctive.

Qin Yue'er and the others looked around, feeling that they couldn't see through their eyes.

The territory of Byzantium is small, but fortunately, the population is not large, so there are quite few people on the street, most of them are local residents, and occasionally some tourists can be seen.

As soon as they got off the plane, Qin Tian and his party were a little hungry, so they found a local specialty restaurant for dinner.

These houses look old on the outside, but they are relatively modern when you walk in. The lights are bright, and the tables and chairs are very clean and tidy.

Qin Tian and the others chose a seat by the window. The view here is good, and you can clearly see the scenes on the street. Soon, a waiter came and delivered the menu. What is surprising is that there is actually a Huaguo here. vegetable.

After ordering a few local specialties, she was afraid that the children would not get used to them, so the careful Lu Wan also ordered some Chinese dishes.

Byzantium has a native language, and they speak English after internationalization, so there is no problem in communication, but when they speak the local dialect, Qin Tian can't understand it at all.

While waiting for the food, Qin Yueer's eyes were attracted by the scenery outside the window, and she quickly tugged at Qin Tian and Lu Wan's sleeves, "Mom and Dad, look quickly."

I saw a group of people coming from the opposite side of the street. They held up a sign in their hands. It was written in local characters, and they couldn't understand what it meant.

These people were all dressed in uniform, wearing white robes that almost mopped the floor, and wearing hoods of the same color on their heads. They were chattering and didn't know what to say, and they looked very lively.

It looks like a parade.

When the waiter served the food, Qin Tian pointed to the group of people outside, and curiously asked in English, "What are they doing?"

The waiter's expression had long been familiar, and he glanced at him and said, "They are trying to solicit votes for Mr. Ellis."

It turns out that the time for the presidential change is about to come, and the votes of the people are very important, accounting for a large proportion, so presidential candidates will try their best to win people's hearts and win votes for themselves.

There are several popular candidates for this term of president, and their means are endless. This kind of canvassing scene can be staged almost every day, sometimes five or six times a day, and local residents have become accustomed to it.

Qin Yueer was a little excited, "Presidential election, can everyone vote?"

The waiter nodded, "Yes, in Byzantium, every citizen has the right to vote, and at the final stage, the presidential candidate will personally go to the street to give a speech."

Lu Wan couldn't help muttering, "That's just going to canvass votes in person."

Qin Xing'er and Qin Lan'er listened so carefully that they didn't even eat their meals.

The level of the president is too far away for Qin Yueer and the others. They have almost only seen it on TV. Now it is possible to see the candidate for the president, that is, the future president, in reality. How can one not be excited.

Seeing that several children were very interested in this, Qin Tian stuffed a few banknotes into the waiter's hand, "Please tell us more, my daughter is very interested in this."

Looking at the generous consumption in his hands, the waiter's expression became more enthusiastic, "Of course."

"Right now, Mr. Ellis, Mr. Raftery, and Mr. Vinita are the most popular candidates for the presidency. These are all popular candidates, and there are a few others who are also popular, but judging from the current situation, these are still the most popular candidates. The advantages are relatively large”

At the end of the waiter's speech, he still had a lot to say. Qin Tian saw that he was speaking so hard, so he stuffed a few more banknotes in the past.

Those people on the street continued, and Qin Yue'er and the others wanted to join in the fun, "Father, let's go and have a look."

Seeing them packing up their things and preparing to leave, the waiter looked at the generous tip in his hand and lowered his voice:
"Sir, the Byzantine scenery is nice, but it's best not to go out at night."

Qin Tian looked a little puzzled, "Why?"

For the sake of Qin Tian's generosity, the waiter was a good person to the end, "That's because of the recent unrest. Some people say it's because of the election of the new president."

Several incidents of beatings, smashing, looting, and burning occurred in Byzantium, and the crime rate soared unprecedentedly. You must know that this has never happened before, but recently it has happened one after another, very frequently.

Although it was not uncommon before, but the frequency was not so high. Since the change of the president, this kind of thing has happened endlessly.

As mentioned earlier, Byzantium mainly believed in two major religions, Catholicism and Islam.

Both sides think that they are the authentic locals, and they have always wanted to eliminate dissidents and drive the other out completely, so the two sides are in the same situation.

Originally, it was barely able to maintain the superficial peace, but the new round of presidential elections once again ignited the flames of war and conflicts between them.

Ellis, one of the presidential candidates, believes in Catholicism, Raftery believes in Islam, and Vinita is neutral.

So Ellis is backed by Catholics, Raftery is backed by Islam.

If one of them becomes president, it is hard not to guarantee what measures he will take against another religion in the future, even if it will be exterminated.

Therefore, the two sides worked hard and wanted to win the position of president, but also to completely establish the position of the religion they believe in. Only when they become the state religion can they be justified.

There are such twists and turns in it, which involves religion and belief together, which can be said to involve a lot.

Lu Wan was a little puzzled and said, "What does that have to do with the recent unrest and the new presidential election?"

"Some people say that it was done by Catholics, and others that it was done by Muslims. The purpose is to attack the other side's forces. Anyway, both sides insist on their own words, and they all think that the other side is setting them up."

The waiter explained in detail that only the locals knew about this matter. In order not to affect economic development, everyone suppressed this matter so that tourists from other places would not panic.
