585 probationary period

It is not easy to count how many things the Chinese have invented, but the most famous is definitely the four great inventions, and modern civilization is largely based on the four great inventions.

This unpleasantness when ordering food will not affect Louis Botha's good appetite, compared with Western food, Chinese food is indeed better taste, richer variety, full of color, flavor and flavor, and the price is not too expensive, Luis Botha and Carlos's dinner is less than one rand in total, which makes Louis Botha very satisfied.

"Actually, one rand is not cheap, it is almost a month's expense of ordinary people, fortunately it can be reimbursed, otherwise you will have to eat soil for the next half a month." Carlos kept the invoice from the restaurant in his wallet, which he could reimburse when he returned.

"What is your annual salary now?" Only then did Louis Botha remember that Carlos's daily life was quite frugal.

As Louis Botha's secretary, Carlos definitely belongs to the high-income class in southern Africa, but Carlos does not have the usual consumption habits of the high-income class, the clothes he wears are not hand-made in high-end tailors, but ready-to-wear clothes sold in stores, he usually does not go to high-end restaurants, he does not have a single luxury item on his body, and the only gold pen and a pocket watch have been used for many years.

Pocket watches are also steel chains, which are only used by the previous generation.

"R280—" Carlos was honest.

"R280 is a good income for a lad of your age, so you should pack yourself up and go to the tailor shop to order a few decent outfits, preferably without wrinkles in your shoes, you are a man with a gold pen, why not buy yourself a gold watch." Luis Botha really couldn't understand Carlos's view of consumption.

Or Roque said it well, if you want to develop the economy, you must encourage the rich to spend.

"My gold pen was awarded by the professor because I helped the professor complete a project, and as for the clothes, I think it's pretty good, and I didn't wear overalls to work—" Carlos had just drunk some wine during dinner, so he dared to defend himself at this time.

"Are you married?" Louis Botha took the initiative to care.

"No, when I was at the University of Nyasaland, I once had a crush on a female classmate, and after graduation, that female classmate went to the RAND Bank, and there may be no intersection in the future." Carlos is a little sad, and sometimes a turn is a lifetime.

"Where's the RAND Bank?" Louis Botha on a whim.

"It's Little Rock—" Carlos didn't know what to do.

"Go, take me to see, let me see how you look." Louis Botha was in high spirits.

"No, minister—" Carlos hesitated.

"Boy, don't blame me for not reminding you, if you don't go tonight, then you will definitely regret it later." Louis Botha doesn't force it, if Carlos insists on not going, then it is estimated that the so-called good opinion will not be much.

"That-well-then, should I change my clothes-" Carlos Six.

Louis Botha looked Carlos up and down with contemptuous eyes, and only then did he remember that it was too late to make clothes.

Then just go straight back to the hotel and ask the lobby manager to take Carlos to Itno to buy clothes as quickly as possible, and then ask the lobby manager to call a taxi.

This time you're going to have to bring a guard, and you still have to be careful at night compared to during the day.

As a result, after the car called, it was found that it was not necessary, and the headquarters of the RAND Bank in Nyasaland was also in Cecil Rhodes Square, a few steps away.

The guards knew that Carlos was going to meet his classmates, and they were all very enthusiastic, and one of the guards who seemed to be a veteran of the love scene even ran to buy Carlos a bouquet of flowers, which made Carlos even more nervous.

"Don't be shy, just go in and find her, tell her you like her, and then leave everything to God." The idea of a veteran in the love field is not very reliable when I hear it.

"Don't bother at all, Carlos, listen to me, go in and tell her that you are now the minister's secretary, and then invite her to dinner, and believe me, you can take her straight back to the hotel after eating." There are people who are even more unreliable.

"That's, if that girl is so frivolous, Carlos can't take a fancy to her, I think Carlos should go buy a car and invite your girl for a ride-" That's a good idea, but you need a driver's license to drive in Nyasaland.

"Shut up, Carlos, believe in yourself, you can do it—" Louis Botha didn't look like a minister at all, cheering on with the other guards.

"I-" Carlos was still holding back as he walked to the door.

As a result, the doorman of the lazy bank was very attentive, and when he saw Carlos from a distance, he took the initiative to help open the door, and then looked at the flowers in Carlos's hand, and he smiled.

"Thank you—" Carlos was nervously speechless, or when Louis Botha passed by the doorman, he casually threw a gold coin in his hand.

The doorman's surprised face can smile, and the action of receiving gold coins is very elegant, and it looks like he has been trained.

As the largest bank in southern Africa, the building of the RAND Bank must be all kinds of tall, the height of the hall must be more than fifteen meters, standing in the hall, people subconsciously feel very small, and then the sense of awe arises spontaneously

Carlos froze in place as soon as he entered, staring at a girl in the middle of the hall who had covered her mouth in surprise.

The girl wore the usual bank clerk's uniform, a white shirt, black vest, pencil pants, round scalp shoes, and a neatly combed ponytail without a trace of messiness.

Carlos calmed down at this time, came to the girl with flowers, and handed them over with a smile: "Kate, long time no see-"

The girl's tears finally flowed at this time, but she didn't answer, covering her mouth with one hand, putting the other behind her back, and her eyes were smiling like crescent moons.

"Sir, is there anything I can help with?" Immediately, a male staff member came over to ask, and although he said something polite, he looked at Carlos with a fierce look.

The doorway was immediately neat and meaningful.

Oh, how tactful.

"Sorry sir, please don't disturb our normal work, if you are not handling business, then please wait outside the door." The corners of the fierce-eyed man's mouth twitched, and it wasn't the revenge of killing his father, as for it-

It's really not true, but for some people who feel good about themselves, it's actually similar to the hatred of taking a wife.

"David, please don't do this, Carlos is my friend." Kate finally came to her senses and stopped in front of Carlos with an unhappy expression.

"Kate, don't be deceived by this kind of person, hehe, the logo on the sleeve is not cut, I'm afraid others won't know that you are wearing Itno?" The male-eyed man's condescending posture is obvious.

"David, you're behaving very rudely right now." Kate doesn't care at all, what people wear is none of your business, and they don't wear your family.

"I'm worried about you, Kate—" The fierce-eyed man said affectionately.

"Thanks, but no-" Kate was clear, not giving the male-eyed man a chance at all.

"Hey, come and do me a favor, I've got business—" One of the guards next to Louis Botha came over and tried to call the male-eyed man away.

Carlos immediately gave him a grateful look.

"I'm sorry, I'm serving this gentleman, please look for another staff member, or wait a minute." David was quite sane and not carried away by jealousy.

However, the guards around Luis Botha are not easy to fool, unlike Carlos, a serious college graduate, the guards around Luis Botha have all been on the battlefield, and the people who are really killed from the sea of corpses and blood have a much greater ability to turn their faces than Carlos.

"I don't want to say it a second time, you'd better come over and lick my ass now, or I'll make you look good-" The guard immediately turned his face, the soldier's writing is not good, and scolding can scold flowers.

The fierce-eyed man didn't talk nonsense, and directly raised his hand to call the guards.

"You'd better not get into trouble." Carlos gloated, he had been with these ** for a long time, and the good children had to learn badly.

Sure enough, as soon as Carlos's words fell, Kate looked back at Carlos in disbelief, and the little stars in her eyes were obvious.

"Shut up, it's all because of you—" The male-eyed man tore through his disguise.

"Abusive customer, David, you're in trouble—" Kate said meaningfully, and the woman remembered the grudge with a terrible grudge.

"He was the one who insulted me first—" The male-eyed man defended.

"I scolded you, not him." The guards who didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement seriously corrected it.

David stopped talking nonsense and raised his hand again to call the security guard.

The security guard did not move, and next to him stood the manager of the bank lobby who was smiling professionally at Louis Botha.

That's right, service industry practitioners, it is best to have the ability to remember people's faces, in case you accidentally offend someone who should not be offended, then the consequences will be very serious.

Being able to work at the RAND Bank, David is not stupid, and he immediately hesitated.

"Scream, hurry up and get someone to arrest me, shouldn't you show your heroism at this time? How else can you protect your girlfriend—" The guard laughed, not noticing Kate's face.

"Could you please tell this gentleman that I'm not David's girlfriend—" Kate wasn't stupid either, and it would be too dull to understand the relationship between Carlos and the man who found fault at this time.

Of course, this sentence should also be addressed to Carlos.

"I'm sorry Mark, can you give me some personal space—" Carlos felt embarrassed that the flowers hadn't been sent out yet.

"Wow wow, I just helped you solve a big problem, and you're going to kick me away, beautiful girl, be careful of this man across from you, you see how ruthless he is." Mark didn't forget to take the male-eyed man with him when he left, laughing and patting the male-eyed man on the shoulder.

The fierce-eyed man was trembling like a quail at this moment, and he didn't dare to resist at all.

"That David came to the Indian branch for training, and he is still in the probationary period, so he will probably go back in a few days—" Kate's words made Carlos completely relieved.
