Chapter 178: Out of Control Instantly(1/2)
Outside the East Third Ring Road, the Embassy is on Anjialou Road.
From the outside, with its gray color and bunker-like appearance, it’s hard to tell what it’s worth.
After checking the ticket and entering the venue, the first thing you entered was a tall Christmas tree erected on the oval lawn of the large courtyard, and a sign was erected next to it.
The three of them were bored and stepped forward to take a look. They saw the origin of the tree written in English:
This 48-foot tall balsam fir from Vermont is decorated with 2,500 red, white and blue light bulbs.
We will hold a lighting ceremony on November 23rd to welcome you.
Also a note: There are gifts under the Christmas tree for everyone who comes, so don’t forget to pick them up when you leave.
Zhang Qing smiled and said: "Red, white and blue are the colors of their national flag, and Americans can play with them."
Li Chudong said softly: "It's too extravagant. Just bring such a big tree from my hometown for Christmas? With so many lights, how much electricity does it cost to light them up for a month?"
Zhang Qing looked around and saw that there were all kinds of people there. Everyone had a smile on their face and looked very gentlemanly in their behavior...
He said: "The United States usually does not turn off the lights at night. If the lights are turned off, the insurance company will refuse to pay for theft, fire and other accidents. Their electricity bills are cheap, gas is cheap, gasoline is cheap, milk is cheap, meat is cheap, white goods are cheap
I buy a pile of twelve shirts, wear them for a day and then throw them away, because they are very cheap and washing them is better than buying new ones. For basic necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation, as long as you are willing to work, there is nothing you cannot afford.
The American emperor is very bad to other countries. Even his loyal lackey Japan was brutally plundered. Whenever the American emperor's economy stagnated and could not afford the high welfare life of the people inside, they began to attack the second best and formed gangs to surround them.
Beat the dick.
But for the people inside, the benefits are really good.
Therefore, although they are evil, there are still so many elites who dream of becoming American citizens. Once they become American citizens, they will serve the country wholeheartedly, and the United States will become stronger and stronger."
Why was it that public intellectuals were so rampant in the 1990s that the relevant departments were unable to deal with it and had no confidence to deal with it?
As reform and opening up deepened and people learned more and more about the outside world, they discovered that the hard-fought methods used in the past, which allowed them to conquer the world by relying on millets and rifles, really didn’t work.
Already.
Especially after the Gulf War, Iraq, known as the fourth most powerful military country in the world, was overwhelmed by the United States. The ground troops only took a hundred hours to fight until they collapsed, and the whole world fell into silence.
As for the Soviet Union, which drew a sign of termination and disintegrated on the spot, it also caused the spiritual beliefs of too many people to collapse.
Jin Xing and Li Chudong looked at the tall Christmas tree in front of them, their faces expressionless under the red, white and blue lights.
After a while, Jin Xing scratched his head and said: "I think there is no need to be so pessimistic. Let's do it first."
Li Chudong also nodded and said: "Yes, let's do it first. We don't want to fight for the boss. We just need to be strong first and not be bullied. We must have a big meal tonight to consume Laomei's heritage first."
Zhang Qing laughed and said: "Heroes see the same thing! Let's go!"
…
"Damn, such a big crab..."
"This is called a king crab, an Alaskan king crab. The price of one crab is equivalent to two years' wages of our workers."
"Holy shit, it's so expensive? Is this thing very rare?"
"No, there are so many that it's overwhelming. A female crab can give birth to tens of thousands of baby crabs a year."
"That's still so expensive?!"
"Western countries have quotas for catching king crabs. Norway is only allowed to catch more than a thousand tons a year, divided into male crabs and female crabs. It is illegal to catch too many crabs, and you will be fined heavily. Artificial limits push up prices."
"These guys are really bad."
The embassy's official residence looks unremarkable on the outside, but it's magnificent on the inside.
While enjoying the Christmas dinner, Zhang Qing and the other three kept scolding the American emperor for being inhumane.
Most of the Chinese people who can attend the dance have some background and status.
It's not impossible that people like the three of them started eating as soon as they entered the house, but they were very rare.
So it quickly attracted some people’s attention…
"Hi! Zhang Qing?"
Unstandard Mandarin came from the side. Zhang Qing looked and saw that it was An Qiraj Qian, an international student from Huaqing.
Zhang Qing stopped the cheese-baked king crab legs in his hand, smiled and said, "Hello, Ahn'Qiraj."
Then he said to Jin Xing and Li Chudong, who were also fishing for a crab leg: "The tickets were given by the International Students Office."
Jin Xing, Li Chudong nodded and smiled, Jin Xing said politely: "I've benefited from you, do you want to eat?"
Ahn'Qiraj calmly moved to the side. After declining with a smile, he said to Zhang Qing, "Zhang Qing, can I ask you to dance later?"
Zhang Qing apologized: "Sorry, I'm not good at it. Why don't you ask my classmate to dance? He is a dancing swordsman..."
Li Chudong pushed him: "Get out!"
Zhang Qing laughed, and Ahn'Qiraj also laughed. Her unfamiliarity and politeness had faded a lot. She shrugged and said, "It seems that your friends don't want to either, so okay, I won't disturb you guys from enjoying the delicious food. Merry Christmas."
"
After she left, the three of them continued eating, and Zhang Qing roughly told the two guys about the origin of Ahn'Qiraj.
But after a while, an acquaintance appeared again.
"Damn it, Zhang Qing? You don't want the votes, you can't say it, right?"
Zhang Qing swallowed the soft and delicate king crab sashimi in his mouth, looked back, and saw Kong Li standing behind him in a dress, asking with an excited smile as if he was trying to catch someone.
Putting his hands on his hips, he squeezed the turbulence in front of him and made it even more surging.
Jin Xing blocked Li Chudong's eyes, fearing that he would have another nosebleed.
Zhang Qing explained: "Teacher Bai gave me the ticket and asked me to come and see it. Are you alone?"
Kong Li said angrily: "Who else do you want to see?"
Zhang Qing chuckled: "No, I'm used to asking like this. Do you want to eat something?"
Kong Li chuckled and said, "Look what everyone else is doing, it's just the three of you chewing away!"
Naturally, everyone else was socializing, especially women. Almost every blond foreigner was surrounded by two or three people.
Zhang Qing couldn't see it, shook his head, and said: "You go about your business."
Seeing that he went to eat again, Kong Li was very angry and said: "I can't cure you, but someone can cure you, just wait!"
"trouble!"
Zhang Qing shook his head and complained, and said to the two of them: "Eat quickly, and move quickly when you are full. Otherwise, a black aunt will invite you to a disco soon."
Jin Xing laughed heartily and said, "That'll be great for A Chu, he likes plump ones."
Li Chudong scolded: "Fart! I like plump ones, but I don't like fat ones."
At this time, a scoff came from the roadside. Zhang Qing turned around, but he didn't expect that it was someone he knew again.
"Zhang Qing? How did you get in?"
Zhao Jianguo asked in surprise, but his eyes didn't show much kindness.
Qiao Yue's crazy pursuit and beating of Zhang Qing was no longer a secret in their circle.
Zhang Qing chuckled and said, "You came in through the gate, how about you?"
Jin Xing smiled on the side and said: "Maybe it flew in, otherwise who would ask that?"
He knew that the person in front of him might have an extraordinary background, but he was not afraid of anything.
Right now, Huaqing University is their biggest source of confidence.
He doesn't cause trouble, but he's not afraid of trouble either.
Zhao Jianguo obviously didn't expect this little man to be so talented. He looked at Jin Xing and asked, "What's your name?"
Jin Xing chuckled and said, "My name is Li Chudong, are you okay?"
Li Chudong scolded: "I am your father!" Then he laughed with Zhao Jianguo and said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, his name is Xia Mo."
Zhao Jianguo twitched his lips, glanced at the three guys who didn't take him seriously, nodded, and then left expressionlessly.
"Let's go and find a barbecue stall to eat. This place is not suitable for us."
Venus lost interest and suggested.
Zhang Qing regretted a little: "I shouldn't have brought you here."
Jin Xing smiled and said, "What are you talking about? We have a school in Pingjing. When we return to our hometown, are we still afraid of his revenge? Let him try to cause trouble."
Li Chudong also laughed at the side: "The people in the center are indeed powerful, but those who go to local offices to practice are often disgraced and make a lot of jokes. We still have such jokes now. It's really funny. Beile is invincible in the world."
Seeing that Zhang Qing was worried about them, Jin Xing put it more clearly: "Let me tell you this, if there was no tax sharing in 1994, I wouldn't even be a bird like this grandson. After the tax sharing, I really can't afford to offend him. But even though he can't afford to offend us, he can't go to Qianzhou and do anything to our family."
Zhang Qing's jaw dropped in shock: "Damn it, don't tell me that you two are the governor of Qianzhou."
Jin Xing smiled and said: "The big government office is a chicken feather, but the big government office is more afraid of them. At most, we have a few officials among our relatives, not big officials, in the middle. But as far as I know, from top to bottom, We are all very jealous of the kind of unscrupulous yamen. It’s okay to just mess around in life. If you really cross the red line, you will definitely be punished.”
Li Chudong said with a smile: "One of us is Miao and the other is Gelao, he can bite my balls! But you, brother, be careful. But you are Lao Bai's baby now, and you are protected by the school, so there is no need to bird him. Let's go, Let’s go barbecue.”
Zhang Qing felt relieved, as long as his friends were not in trouble, the three of them walked out chatting and laughing.
