Chapter 1303

At 9:00 in the morning, as usual, it's time to check letters. Zhou yingyao brings a cup of coffee to the mailroom.

He is the Second Secretary of the embassy. Compared with the first secretary, in addition to his lower level, the biggest difference is that he works more internally and less externally. The most important part of internal work is reading letters.

The attendant in charge of the mail room has already classified the letters into different categories. The ordinary letters have been opened and recorded. The remaining important letters are all left on the desk.

"What's special about today?" Zhou yingyao asked casually and turned over the record book.

This is also his job.

Knowing that what Zhou yingyao asked was actually an interesting story, the attendant said with a smile, "Shen @ Yang anti riot equipment factory has declared bankruptcy. This is the first time since the founding of new China."

"I have to write about it and send it." "Last month, our delegation in Geneva wanted to apply for the restoration of the status of a contracting party to GATT. This month, a bankrupt factory came out, which is quite interesting," he said

"No. Ah, I didn't expect that some factories in our country have closed down. My parents are still workers. " The entourage sighed twice. After a period of time abroad, they were very clear about bankruptcy and bankruptcy. Looking back at the situation at home, they found it incredible.

"Reform is just like this. We can't have only good things and no bad things." Zhou yingyao was very conscious and said, "besides, bankruptcy can not be said to be a complete bad thing."

"You mean it."

"I just don't know how to arrange workers. I'm afraid it's hard to solve the problem of establishment." Zhou yingyao said so, picked up several diplomatic letters, confirmed that there was no word of someone's special inspiration, and tore them up one by one.

The reason why the second secretary read these letters is mainly because the diplomatic letters are classified as secretaries. In the Embassy in Sweden, only the ambassador, three counsellors, first-class and second-class secretaries are qualified, while the other three secretaries and attendants can only wait for notice.

This one on the scene is very curious to stretch his neck to see.

"Nothing useful. It's all messy requests. " Zhou yingyao threw it on the table and opened the last letter.

The attendant accompanied him with a smile and said: "you say that people in China are also people who don't understand the external situation and can't pass on the domestic situation. As a result, we don't say anything, and we waste so much time in communication, wasting so many stamps in vain..."

Zhou yingyao said nothing but looked down at the letter.

The attendant thought that he had said something wrong, so he was nervous. He quickly recovered it and said, "in fact, we have collected quite a lot of information. It would be better if the letters sent to us in China were more organized..."

"You go and gather people." Zhou yingyao's face gloomy to stop the attendant's words, said: "it is said that there is an emergency need to inform, Huang shenzan you don't have to look for, I call him."

The attendant nodded in surprise, said "yes" and went there in a hurry.

Looking at him going out, Zhou yingyao picked up the phone and dialed the inside line. When he got through, he signed up and said, "counselor Huang, I'm Zhou yingyao. I want to report something to you. Can I go up now? I'm afraid I can't wait. It's urgent... OK, I'll come right away."

Zhou yingyao put the phone away, sorted out his collar, looked at the documents in the bag, and closed the door of the reception room before he went to counselor Huang's office.

In the embassy, the counselor is the deputy of the ambassador, and his position is also very important.

However, the embassy is different from the local government. It is a large unit with fewer people. The ambassador usually has a higher rank, much higher than the Counselor's status, so that the affairs in the Embassy are usually decided by the ambassador.

Not only that, in larger embassies, the number of counsellors is also large, with two or three counsellors and five or six counsellors.

In the Chinese Embassy in Stockholm, there are three counsellors and one martial arts school, which are quite well equipped. But so many people divide the power in a small embassy, which will inevitably make the power of all people smaller.

However, for the staff in the embassy, power does not matter, but the relative power.

Zhou yingyao has always had a close relationship with counsellor Huang. This time, he was the first to come to counsellor Huang's office with news.

"What's the rush?" Counsellor Huang is Hu Jianren. He made Kung Fu tea early in the morning, took a snack and put it on the table. He asked, "have you eaten yet? I'm just going to call Ambassador Ling. I've been out for several days. "

"I don't think you need to fight any more." Zhou yingyao attached the document to the bag and handed it to counsellor Huang."What is this?"

"Notice of transfer."

"Who transferred?" Huang shenzan was surprised.

It's very common for diplomats to be transferred. It's very common for them to work as entourage for one or two years, to work as third-class secretary in other countries, and to work as counselor in small embassies from larger embassies.

The so-called iron barracks and running water soldiers, few people will work in an embassy for 567 years.

Counsellor Huang pinched his fingers and said, "Lao Li is leaving?"

Zhou yingyao was a little funny. Huang shenzan did not read the document. He shook his head and said, "just look at it."

"And riddles." Counsellor Huang didn't think much, so he shook out the documents.

A few seconds later, the word "Ling Zhi Ming" came into his eyes.

"Good guy!" Huang shenzan jumped up from his chair and said, "how could it be that Ambassador Ling was transferred?"

His last words are very quiet.

Zhou yingyao said, "I know the steel seal on it. It's from the Ministry. That's right."

"Didn't you call to check?"

"I'm afraid it's not suitable for me to check this time alone." Zhou yingyao paused for a moment and said, "besides, I also want to ask you how to deal with it."

Theoretically, such a transfer letter can be delayed for several days. As long as it is not published, Ling Zhiming can issue several orders about the identity of the ambassador.

Counsellor Huang did not answer immediately. He shook open the document and read it.

Zhou yingyao watched counsellor Huang's face, and saw that he was dignified at first, relaxed later, and finally he laughed.

"Do you know where Lao Ling was dropped?" Counsellor Huang's mouth was full of laughter.

The corners of Zhou yingyao's mouth also puffed up and said in a low voice, "Chad."

"Yes, transferred from Sweden to Chad." Huang shenzan shook his head and said, "don't say, the rank of ambassador of Chad is not low."

However, Chad is one of the poorest countries in Africa.

The transfer from the richest country in the world to the poorest country in the world is not interesting for Ambassador Ling.

"Ambassador Ling originally wanted to step down from the position of Swedish ambassador, and then retired," Zhou said

"There's nothing wrong with retiring in Africa." Huang shenzan said with ease: "did you inform the meeting?"

"Yes."

"OK, let's go to the meeting and announce it." Counsellor Huang was very happy. He stopped drinking Kung Fu tea.

Zhou yingyao moved in his heart, followed counsellor Huang and said in a low voice, "do you think the person who will replace Ambassador Ren Ling will choose from our Embassy?"

"It's a long way off." Counsellor Huang, knowing what he wanted to say, shook his head and said, "I think I will be transferred, too. I've been in Sweden for three years. It's time to change places. There are a few other people, too. As for you, think of a way to operate it and hope to stay. "

"I understand." Zhou yingyao paused and asked, "what do you think is the reason for the transfer of the ambassador?"

"In this case? I guess there are only two. "

"Two?"

"Either it offends people, or it makes way for people."

"Make way for someone, or offend someone?"

"Who can say that they have offended the people at home or abroad?" Counsellor Huang turned his lips.

In front of Zhou yingyao's eyes, a figure emerged.

They talked and went downstairs. When they entered the conference room, they were already serious.

"We need to inform you of one thing when we call in our comrades today." Counsellor Huang looked at both sides and said, "ambassador Ling has been transferred to Chad, Africa, according to the transfer letter he just received."

"Ah?"

"Why?"

"Has the new ambassador been announced?"

"Why, Ambassador Ling is not in Stockholm."

The meeting room immediately turned into a mess.

Even the attendants who are not qualified to speak are all kinds of guesses.

Zhao Ze mingles in the entourage pile, looks at other people uneasily, in front of inexplicable emerges a figure.
