Chapter 152 Honest people will suffer losses (first update, please subscribe)
  Paris!

What was there in Paris before Christmas in 44?
  There is no Christmas tree decorated with lights, and there are no abundant Christmas gifts.

There are American troops everywhere, jeeps everywhere, and of course, poverty and hunger everywhere.

Although Paris, which had been occupied by the Germans for four years, was liberated, what would France look like?
  50 buildings were completely destroyed, 150 million were severely damaged, three-quarters of the country's locomotives disappeared, only one-tenth of the trucks were available, industrial output was less than half of pre-war levels, and millions of people Unemployed, millions of people were waiting for de Gaulle's rescue, but de Gaulle... didn't have a dime.

This guy is still begging for food from the United States!
  The officials had no food to eat, so they had to suffer for the common people.

Of course, the common people would not starve to death, so the wealthy American soldiers became meat and potatoes, just like those shaved heads who would fall into the arms of the Germans for bread and French women. Now, French women They would also sit in an American soldier's car for the cans, and they would scramble to get there.

The task force members who had just withdrawn from Bastogne felt the enthusiasm of French girls as soon as they arrived in Paris. Some jumped into their arms for a pack of Camel cigarettes or a box of cans. Of course, some directly launched a love offensive. The man must be captured as a long-term meal ticket.

But honest people tend to suffer.

For these young people in the task force, when they were studying, they may have longed for free love, or even dreamed of falling in love, but Chinese people are emotionally reserved, shy and reserved.

But French girls are different. These Parisian girls wear their most beautiful dresses, put on lipstick, and stare at the special boys with affectionate eyes. When have these silly boys ever experienced such a battle?

A coquettish whisper, a passionate embrace and a sweet kiss.

These silly boys who had not been conquered by German guns in Bastogne easily fell under the skirt of French women.

It has to be said that French men may not be good at fighting, but French women's skills in conquering men are absolutely top-notch.

what is the problem?

Wang Xiong was still a little confused until he woke up from the bed. He just had a crush on this girl and gave her a bouquet of flowers. Then, she invited him to his house for tea, and then asked her to play the piano to her. .

What happened next?
  It is indeed easy for trouble to happen when a man and a woman live alone in the same room!

But who took the initiative?

Looking at the girl next to him, the sunlight reflected the dazzling light on her long blond hair. Wang Xiong couldn't help but be fascinated by the girl's beautiful face.

No matter who took the initiative, anyway, I like this girl.

At the same time, the previous madness appeared in his mind, Wang Xiong's heart couldn't help but feel hot, and he hugged the girl into his arms again. The girl also woke up, looking straight at Wang Xiong with her affectionate eyes.

Soon, a loud sound sounded in the room again.

After an unknown amount of time, when the room came to a standstill, Wang Xiong looked at the panting girl, stroked her blond hair with his fingers, and spoke softly in French.

"Emma, ​​will you marry me?"

Is this a marriage proposal?
  There were no flowers, not even a ring, but when the girl looked at the man's serious eyes, she thought of what her friend had said - this is Chinese-style romance.

What does Chinese-style romance look like?
  It is the responsibility!
  It’s giving!
  This is a quality that is hard to see in men from other countries. Anyway, neither the American soldiers nor the German soldiers have such advantages. Those people always refuse to admit their mistakes.

In an instant, a bright smile appeared on the girl's face. Facing the man's serious gaze, Emma nodded vigorously.

……

When he was a member of the French Women's Attack Task Force, Li Yi'an lived in a mansion in Paris, and his headquarters was also located here. However, since arriving in Paris, he has not been idle, not to attend the French Official banquets are held to deal with various matters.

Just like now, he has to deal with another thing - acquiring high-quality assets in France.

The report in front of him was compiled by that guy Mickey. Although that guy didn't go to France, he compiled a French asset report. It was actually compiled by Morgan Bank. Mickey used some means to get one. . Then this report came to Li Yian.

"There seems to be nothing worth starting..."

It's not that there is nothing worth taking, but because... France is not a defeated country, and its assets may be underestimated, but it is definitely impossible to plunder them.

"But the winery is quite cheap. I don't know if Lafite will be sold..."

In fact, Li Yi'an is an extremely low-key person. He doesn't have many of the preferences of rich people. He doesn't like drinking red wine and prefers milk, but it's not impossible to rinse his mouth with Lafite.

Just at this moment, the office door was opened.     "It's over, it's over..."

As soon as he entered the office, Sun Delin shouted loudly.

"Chief Li, if this continues, the task force will be completely ruined. They were all fooled by a French girl. No, someone else reported that they are getting married..."

With a "pop" sound, he placed a thick stack of reports on his desk. Looking at Chief Li, Sun Delin said seriously:

"Chief Li, so many people are getting married. This... the morale of the military is unstable!"

Li Yi'an, who was looking through the list of French assets sent by Mickey, put the list together, looked at Sun Delin who was a little excited, looked at the report on the table, and asked:

"Are these going to get married?"

"Yes! Good fellow, these people act as if they have never seen a woman before. As soon as a French woman holds her hand and kisses her mouth, she obediently agrees to marry someone else. They are all going to get married!"

Sun Delin's face was full of hatred, and he even looked at Chief Li and said with sincerity.

"Sir Li, people are in confusion and it's hard to lead the team!"

Li Yi'an, who was about to buy Lafite so that he could rinse his mouth in the future, looked at Sun Delin's appearance, then turned his attention to the report and said.

"Getting married is a good thing! Once you get married and have a certain identity, people's hearts will naturally not be in chaos!"

While talking, Li Yian took out cigarettes from the cigarette case, handed one to Sun Delin, and said.

"When the brothers get married, they will settle their families in Borneo in the future. This is a good thing for us."

After the integration in Bastogne, the task force has now truly become Li Yi'an's task force. The experience of living and dying together has won recognition, both for him and for Borneo, even if they have never set foot on it. Cross that land.

After taking a puff of his cigarette, Sundelin nodded and said.

"I understand the truth, but Chief Li, if a soldier marries a wife, his heart will be broken. I'm worried that the brothers will miss their wives when they go to the battlefield. This will affect the combat effectiveness of the army."

Sundelin would not have said these words without going through the battle of Bastogne. His worries were actually from the company's standpoint.

Hearing this, Li Yian burst into laughter.

"You have to think too much about this. Only when they have a family will they know more clearly what they are fighting for. Don't worry, you have to trust our brothers."

Patting his shoulder, Li Yian said,

"It's a great thing that so many brothers can solve life-long affairs in France! So many French women are willing to marry our people, doesn't it just prove how good our people are!"

In this era, Europeans tend to be condescending. In the eyes of many Europeans, yellow people are an inferior race. How can a white woman marry a yellow person?

But now everything has changed!
  The Second World War brought down the lofty Europeans from their pedestal!

In the face of poverty, all living beings are equal!
  Why are French women willing to marry task force members now? It’s because the task force members have cans, camel cigarettes, money, and the things that women long for—it can bring them a better life!
  Although it has become a little more philistine, what's the big deal?
  Canned goods and camel cigarettes are regarded as betrothal gifts.

Besides, it is better to take cans as a betrothal gift than to take hundreds of thousands as a betrothal gift!

"We, as chief officers, should be happy for them when they get married. Do you think so? Let me see. Otherwise, let's hold a collective wedding for them and I will personally host it."

Li Yi'an never gives up the opportunity to get closer to his relationship with the task force. The wedding can also be used to bring the two parties closer and enhance their sense of belonging to the company and their recognition of him.

"Mass wedding?"

Sun Delin looked at Chief Li and said.

"Chief Li is really planning to hold a mass wedding for them in the military camp and let them get married!"

"Not here!" Li Yian shook his head and said:
  "I have a better place!"
