Return to the exciting era of 1999

Chapter 1735: Collapse
According to Ji Donglai's request, anyone who buys a house here will get a discount if they are a military household, and if they are the descendants of a martyr here, the house can even be sold at cost price.

It is destined that the people living around here are of good origin and ordinary people cannot afford to offend them.

"It's okay. Aren't the people we are displaying fighting for peace and tranquility for future generations? It's good to have them around so I won't be lonely. There will be more people in the summer, but fewer in the winter... Hey, you guys cleaned it really well!"

The floor tiles in front of the Martyrs' Monument were almost spotless, and Ji Donglai took the opportunity to change the subject.

"We are just sweeping the dust. There are a few uncles in front of us who come here with mops almost every day to mop the floor from here to the martyrs' tomb over there, once a day."

"We have advised him, but he would not listen. Now he just lets it be. Our staff sometimes replace the flower debris in front of the martyrs' tomb, but they replace most of them."

"Students from nearby schools come here to visit during holidays, and these elderly people come to serve as free guides, which saves us a lot of trouble. Do you see the trees over there? They are all trimmed by them, so neat..."

The person in charge said that there were several retired veterans around here, and their eyes were full of admiration. It is also because there are many elderly volunteers here that the entire museum does not spend much money. Photovoltaic power generation supplies central air conditioning, and the water is deep groundwater. The maintenance is integrated by the military and civilians.

At the beginning, it was only an old man who did this. Later, as more and more residents came here, several old people came here to do this. They got water from the faucet of the Martyrs Museum, and then mopped the floor here. They did this almost all year round, except when it was cloudy or rainy.

"Find me a place to live, so I can stay here quietly for the next few days!"

Looking at the people around him, Ji Donglai suddenly felt a sense of quiet and comfort in his heart. The person in charge hurriedly made arrangements, and Ji Donglai spent the next few days here.

Liu Dejiang has already taken off and took a connecting flight of Yiyuan Zhizao all the way to the Middle East, transferred in Dubai, and then took an Emirates flight directly to Cyprus and then to Damascus.

"Mane Mane..."

Yiyuan Zhizao's local receptionist is a local student studying in China. Liu Dejiang had been sponsoring the student's studies in the past few years. After graduation, the student returned to Damascus and has also been doing business in China in recent years.

The shabby second-hand car was shaking all over. Five of Liu Dejiang's bodyguards were squeezed into one car. In front was the car of the overseas student Ali and Liu Dejiang.

Not far from the airport, the buildings began to show signs of disrepair and there were signs everywhere. Passing through the narrow alleys, many children rushed up to the car and stretched out their hands to Liu Dejiang, and the international students hurriedly drove them away.

"Don't give it to them. You won't be able to hide from them. There are a lot of thieves here. Mr. Liu, our hotel is on the other side of the city. It's safer there. The airport here is very vulnerable to bombing. The Americans are very bad. They even bombed our drinking water facilities."

"We can't ride in a very nice car, because they will mark it as a government official's car or a military car, and it will be easily bombed by drones. Now there are many of their people in the city. You must wear a mask when you go out to prevent being marked..."

Ali handed Liu Dejiang a headscarf. Although Liu Dejiang was reluctant, he still wrapped the headscarf around his head. Ali also put a pair of sunglasses on Liu Dejiang.

It turns out that only locals and people like Liu Dejiang can stay on this land.

There are checkpoints everywhere when crossing the city, and armed soldiers are checking at every intersection. Fortunately, Ali is a local and Liu Dejiang's passport is Chinese, so he feels more comfortable here.

After careful inspection, it was confirmed that Liu Dejiang had never been to NATO countries. After more than two hours, the car finally entered a hotel surrounded by barbed wire.

The security guard at the door used a mirror to carefully watch the bottom of the car to prevent any abnormalities. It took him a long time to let the car through the second door.

“Bang!” “Ah…”

Just as a few people got off the car, a gunshot was heard from nowhere. Ali and the driver subconsciously squatted down with their heads in their hands. Liu Dejiang's group of bodyguards were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly squatted down. The next moment they reacted and ran to Liu Dejiang.

"Stop pretending, I'm already hard with your reaction speed, go back to your country tomorrow!"

Surprised by the locals' reactions, Liu Dejiang felt his scalp tingling. He angrily scolded several of his men, then picked up the phone and called Li Dongxin. Then Xu Hong began to arrange bodyguards for Liu Dejiang.

Ali and his uncle prepared a sumptuous welcoming banquet for Liu Dejiang in the evening. Of course, in China, it was just some desserts after the meal.

Stomach, clay pot meat, grilled skewers, cold tomatoes, grilled skewers, and the rest are fruits, milk... Anyway, there is no alcohol at all.

"Is this what you usually eat?"

Liu Dejiang broke off the naan and took a bite, then looked at the things on the carpet. Then he understood what Zhao Shuying meant when she asked him to bring a chef.

"We can't eat it normally. Now the US military has sealed off the city, so some supplies can't get in. We can only eat simple food, not this rich..."

"Fuck!"

The word "Fuck" represented all the views of the Chinese people. Only then did Liu Dejiang truly realize the seriousness of the problem. He washed down a little naan with milk. Fortunately, he brought some snacks from China, so Liu Dejiang managed to make ends meet.

Then he asked Li Dongxin to help him prepare a chef...and of course, the ingredients, so that nothing would be lacking.

After tossing and turning for more than a day, Liu De fell asleep on the comfortable bed. He didn't know what time it was when he heard a huge explosion.

Liu Dejiang was awakened from his sleep, and then explosions were heard from outside. Liu Dejiang turned on the lights in the house and opened the curtains...

"Close the windows, turn off the lights..."

Before Liu Dejiang opened his eyes completely, the guards immediately started roaring. Ali rushed out from somewhere and rushed into the house to turn off Liu Dejiang's light.

"Mr. Liu, if you hear an explosion, hide by the wall. Do not turn on the lights. Do not turn on the lights. People who have lived here for a long time know that you cannot turn on the lights. If you turn on the lights, it means you are a foreigner and you will be the first to be attacked if there is a bomb."

"Those bastards are very willing to scare you foreigners. I hope you won't come and give us business and supplies. Also, don't go near the windows at night. Someone has already leaked the news that a group of Chinese are coming."

"We will move tomorrow morning and stay at my uncle's house for a day. Then we will wait until the army sends people to us, and then we will go to other places..."

Pulling Liu Dejiang to hide against the wall, Ali whispered.

Liu Dejiang's bodyguards were hiding there like docile puppies at this moment. They were originally feeling aggrieved at being driven away by Liu Dejiang, but now they were grateful to Liu Dejiang's ancestors from the bottom of their hearts and wished they could leave immediately if they could get a courier.
