"Everyone, please come with me. The first one we are visiting today is a lowest income family..." Clapen from the Swedish Social Democratic Party walked ahead with a smile, and introduced to the Chinese delegation according to the routes we have taken many times before.

Huang Mao followed Yang Rui, listening to Clapen's stiff Chinese, and laughed in a low voice: "This is what it means to visit. I have lived in a hotel to eat, drink, defecate and urinate, as if I was in a confinement."

"That's a vacation, okay." Yang Rui said: "The foreigner wants to have fun so much fun for a few days."

"I don't like it. Think about it, just sleeping for one night and eating three meals every day will cost me a year's salary. My liver hurts." Huang Mao said as he gritted his teeth and said, "The money spent in one day is enough for me to do a week's experiment."

"You don't want to pay. Isn't it happier to use Coca-Cola's sponsorship and American imperialism money?" Yang Rui joked.

Huang Mao laughed haha: "The Coca-Cola didn't arrange a hotel for my sake."

"No matter what they are doing, it's just right to take the opportunity to enjoy something." Yang Rui smiled and said, "After returning to China and starting a new project, how much rest do you think you can have."

Huang Mao shrugged and said, "I'm used to it."

"You are used to working for a year and taking a few days off," Yang Rui glanced at him and said, "Have you tried to work for twenty years in one go?"

Huang Mao laughed silently: "You haven't tried it either."

"As far as I know, some researchers in laboratories do this." Yang Rui raised his eyebrows and looked at Huang Mao.

Listening to Yang Rui's words, Huang Mao glanced at him and found that Yang Rui was not just telling jokes. A sudden burst of sweat suddenly appeared behind his neck, and said hurriedly: "Don't let it go, don't scare me... Besides, we don't have to work so hard for twenty years in one go."

Speaking of the latter sentence, Huang Mao really started to sweat.

He is a victim of the 110-hour work plan and believes that Yang Rui is the kind of laboratory director who can make 20 years of continuous work requirements.

Yang Rui smiled mysteriously, but did not mean to answer Huang Mao.

Huang Mao sweated more.

Huarui Laboratory's current treatment is very good, but the workload is indeed very large.

From this perspective, Yang Rui continued to improve his salary and then the strict workload may still exist.

Thinking of this, Huang Mao was a little floating when he walked.

He was not afraid of the time spent on experiments, but he was a little chilling when he thought of the 20 years of dark experiments.

At this time, Zhou Yingyao, the second secretary of the embassy, ​​came around from the front and smiled and said, "Director Yang, let's visit as usual first. What do you think?"

"fine."

Seeing that he was not unhappy, Zhou Yingyao breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking about the strictness of his father-in-law and the meaning inside and outside, Zhou Yingyao could only sweat for the ambassador and said, "We meet today all members of the Swedish Social Democratic Party. We will introduce later that the husband of this family is a repairman at the school, and his wife is equivalent to our concierge. Both of them are handymen and receive the minimum wage, which is the minimum wage standard stipulated by Sweden, more than 5,000 kronor, which is about 1,500 US dollars. It just so happens to be on the Swedish minimum wage line."

"Dollar 1,500 is the minimum wage line in Sweden?" Tu Xian jumped out from the side with a tsk sound and thought, "If I had $1,500, what would I have to live."

"What kind of life should you live?" An old professor next to him turned his head and replied, saying, "During the Republic of China, our professors at Peking University could also get three or four hundred silver dollars, which was more than ten times that of ordinary workers and hundreds of times that of farmers. They were not a normal life."

Zhou Yingyao couldn't make them quarrel, and smiled and said, "In Stockholm, a family of 3,000 US dollars can't live a good life, but their life will not be bad either. The main reason is that their salary is high or low, but the government's policies are good."

"How is it a good way?"

"Sweden is a country with high tax revenue, but their salary is exempt from personal income tax in Sweden. In addition, there are subsidies for children, and their lives are pretty good. Look at their house, the building is not high, there is an elevator, and the area is not small, with more than 100 square meters. This is the benefit of putting a monthly income of three to four thousand US dollars, which is really good." Zhou Yingyao gave a serious introduction, and then said: "Our normal visiting route is to see a high-income family after seeing this place. After comparison, you will find that in Sweden, the gap between high-income and low-income is not much."

"Why?" Half of the people in the group were very curious about this topic.

"Because of high income and high taxes." Seeing that Yang Rui was also interested, Zhou Yingyao immediately became energetic and said, "You see, low income people have a much smaller income of $3,000 a month than those of $12,000. However, people with $1,500 are exempt from taxes, and there are children's subsidies. People with $12,000 have to pay high taxes and are busy with work. If you hire a nanny, you have to pay more than $1,500 according to the Swedish minimum wage standard. There is so much expense for a family, and there are not many left. This is the characteristic of Swedish society."

Tu Xian was dizzy when he heard this and said, "As you said, working as a nanny in Sweden is a good job."

Zhou Yingyao laughed and said, "The salary of Swedes is not low for any job, a very happy country..."

"The national sense of income can be reflected in several aspects." Yang Rui said in agreement, saying: "One is work income, and the other is life expectancy."

"Yes." Zhou Yingyao didn't understand what Yang Rui wanted to say, so he simply said one word.

Yang Rui continued: "We have seen salary income and other situations, and we should also look at the medical environment in Sweden."

"What do you mean... do you want to see a Swedish hospital?" Zhou Yingyao asked in a low voice.

"Pharmaceutical Factory." Yang Rui looked up at him and said, "Astra is the largest pharmaceutical company in Sweden."

Zhou Yingyao nodded and said, "It is true, but our embassy has not established any connection with them."

"I have their phone number, please call me and ask for it." Yang Rui wanted someone to come forward, and he did not expect a second secretary of the embassy to help him get all the relationships.

Zhou Yingyao was smart. He knew that Yang Rui's reputation in China was getting better. Although he didn't know if he was equally popular abroad, he just wanted to ask.

The two did not communicate directly, but instead visited the two Social Democratic Party members according to the normal delegation's route.

This is true for groups from China, and even the travel routes are fixed, so Yang Rui didn't want any changes.

In fact, if the ambassador had not disappeared, this should have been an activity that should have been organized two days ago.

Until the evening, a group of talents returned to Hilton with satisfaction.

Zhou Yingyao found Yang Rui directly and said with a smile: "Director Yang, Astra's visit has been confirmed, and the specific time will be determined by you."

"Then the day after tomorrow. I will follow the original procedures for another day." Yang Rui paused for a moment and said, "I also want to invite the embassy to hold a dinner and invite some people from the scientific and industrial circles to come."

Zhou Yingyao was stunned for a moment and hesitated: "We know some Swedes in politics, but we are not very familiar with the scientific and industrial circles."

"As big as you can, you can do it as big as you can." Yang Rui asked, "Didn't the entire embassy be familiar with the scientific and industrial circles?"

"There is a technology counselor." Zhou Yingyao shrugged and said directly: "He is Ambassador Ling's man."

"Ambassador Ling is not here, don't worry about him, just ask this technology counselor to help. Come with me." Yang Rui took Zhou Yingyao back to the room, took out 20,000 kroners from the safe, thought about it and took another 10,000 US dollars, turned around and put it in a file bag, and handed it to Zhou Yingyao: "These are your activity funds."

Zhou Yingyao was startled and said quickly: "I can't ask for this."

Yang Rui patted his hand and said, "I have a very good relationship with Guo Wei. You can ask your father-in-law. If his relationship with Guo Wei is like Guo Wei introduced me, we don't have to refuse."

Yang Rui said sincerely: "I believe you already know what the purpose of my spending is. This fund is used to expand your connections, for us Chinese, or Swedes."

"Okay." Zhou Yingyao suppressed the excitement in his heart and put the file bag up.

"You have contacted Astra's people now, you can also invite them, or invite them to invite personnel to the embassy to attend the dinner. It doesn't matter if the scale is larger." Yang Rui asked immediately: "Does the embassy have funds for this?"

Zhou Yingyao shook his head.
