Chapter 218 teach you to be good

It is not popular in the United States to do good deeds without leaving a name to write a diary. If you really do this, people may even doubt the purpose of doing good deeds - to put it bluntly, everyone's moral values ​​are different. ±

Since Zhang Cheng is in the United States, of course he has to adapt to the values ​​of Americans. Since he has to work and work hard to improve the environment of the marine ecosystem, he always needs to find a way to gain some benefits from it. It should not be a big deal to buy one or two fishing grounds first.

Moreover, the benefits of facing the United States and even the world are obvious. Although Zhang Cheng must have conducted experiments on improving the marine ecosystem in his fishing ground in the end, algae and fish move along the ocean currents.

Changes in the fishing ground can bring benefits to the entire marine ecosystem - the sea waters of the four oceans are connected under the action of ocean currents.

Zhang Cheng didn't want to go too far. It just so happened that Catherine's cruise ship and house were in the San Francisco region of Northern California, which was also a great fishing ground before overfishing in history. Zhang Cheng meant that it would be convenient to circle this area.

However, it is better to add one or two reserves such as National Ocean Parks near the fishing grounds - so the California Coast Guard can legitimately protect its fishing grounds from poaching.

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng called his lawyer Zhuoni and told him about the matter. Zhuoni said on the phone: "There are not many private fishing grounds in the United States. After all, ocean fishing boats in Alaska fishing grounds, Bering Strait fishing grounds, Arctic fishing grounds and Atlantic fishing grounds can still harvest some fishing catches.

Although there is some trouble in fishing grounds and national parks, I need some money to lobby some energy figures in California. This money cannot be transferred in bank accounts, nor can it be a number of US dollars..."

Zhang Cheng: "Is a million dollars of bearer-name national debt enough?"

When he first came into contact with the US bearer-name treasury bonds, Zhang Cheng thought it was a good thing. He also bought a little to preserve his value, and now it seems that it finally came in handy.

Jonny: "It's enough for 450,000 yuan in this matter. Our creed is to use the money to do the big thing!"

Zhang Cheng: "Okay, I'll find someone to send it to you."

It is very rare to let the local government sell a piece of industry in the United States without taking another plan. Fishery resources are exhausted, and Americans can't remember to engage in breeding. First, the degree of automation of the breeding industry (relative to building automobile appliances) is high in labor costs, and second, the price of the breeding catch cannot be compared with the natural salvage.

The existing private commercial fishing grounds in the United States mainly sell fish fry, and their biggest customers are local governments. Local governments with fishery resources buy the precious fry and release them in the sea, hoping to restore the number of precious fish stocks.

However, this kind of policy-based business is also very restricted. For example, after the California government is in high debt, it has to reduce the amount of fry in the next year's plan to save expenses - you said, since financial difficulties are in trouble, stop spending on fry? What a joke, the government work of other seedling companies has been done. As for those teachers and civil servants who were expelled during the economic crisis, obviously, they have not done a good job in communicating with the government.

Of course, you have to find an agent to do this kind of thing. The best agent is a lawyer. The United States is a lawyer society. If you stutter and get the lawyer qualification, you can successfully become a middle-class person without any worries about food and clothing. And for the prosecution, it is great for the stuttering lawyers hired by the government to defend the poor.

As for those who offend the interests of lawyer groups in the United States, they generally die without a place of burial. For example, if you do not bribe the judge directly through a lawyer, even if you want to bribe the judge, you have to do it through a lawyer. In the United States, the jury has the final say, but how long it takes to be sentenced to the jail is the scope of the judge's work. This is also the reason why many felony sentences in the United States are very large. You can not only let you go home immediately or be imprisoned for life. In Chinese, the beauty of using lies in one's heart.

After finishing this, Zhang Cheng continued to push the shopping cart and follow him. When he arrived at the meat area, Jingjing saw the vacuum meat packaging: "Wow, a pound of beef is only more than five pieces. It's so cheap!"

Zhang Cheng looked at it and said, "Girl, you can see clearly that it is US dollar. The price is similar to that of soft girl coins. Now Americans complain that they can't afford beef. The price of beef has risen in recent years. In the past, it was only three or four dollars a pound. And you should pay attention to this commercial-grade beef. It is only better than meat that can make sausages. Commercial-grade beef is fattened by feed. Look at the label above, A-grade calf is under two and a half years old, and De-grade beef is a few old milk beef that does not produce milk. Beef cattle generally will not be raised so big..."

Yingying asked, "Isn't it normal for cattle to eat feed?"

Zhang Cheng: "There are beef bone meals in American cattle feed - it seems like this is how mad cow disease comes from. I don't know if they have changed the feed formula now. Just take the beef from my house. The beef left in my ranch is at least preferred and is a free-range pure natural green beef, which is absolutely safe."

Jingjing put down the beef after hearing this: "Then forget it."

Why did Zhang Cheng take the opportunity to supplement his kitchen with some hot soy sauce and sesame paste. When Zhang Cheng was driving out of the city and was passing by the Starbucks chain store at the corner of the street, Zhang Cheng stopped and handed it to the Jingying sisters in the back seat a photo Franklin: "Life here to teach you good things, go buy three cups of coffee."

The simple English dialogue between Jingying sisters has been studying for more than ten years. Hearing this, he got off the car and took the money and went in. In three minutes, he brought three cups of coffee and change from the coffee shop.

Zhang Cheng took the coffee and pretended to suck it, and said to the Jingying sisters: "Drink it."

Sister Jingying took a sip and almost sprayed out the coffee. Yingying asked, "It's so sweet, did they beat the candy seller to death?"

Zhang Cheng: "It's almost done if you don't beat him to death. Cuba produces sugar."

Jingjing: "It's so sweet that I can't stand it, how can I drink it?"

Zhang Cheng: "So, I'm just telling you that you are good. According to the recent conclusions of human biology, Chinese people have more taste buds than foreigners. In other words, foreigners are not so sweet when drinking this coffee, so they have to add so much sugar to enhance the sweetness. When I was eating American chocolate in China, I wondered why the American chocolate was so sweet that it was so sweet. When I arrived in the United States, I found that all sweet drinks and sweet snacks were so sweet..."

Sister Jingying looked at the coffee in her hand and asked, "What should I do if this?"

The food that Americans don’t like is that they still don’t eat. However, Chinese people have experienced countless famines caused by lack of food in history. They believe that waste food is a moral felony. The McCann chain’s regulations are that bread is thrown into the trash can without being sold for dozens of minutes. However, McCann’s chain stores in China have never ruined bread that was not sold for dozens of minutes.

Zhang Cheng: "If you don't want to throw it away, take it home and add hot water and milk to continue drinking."

"Oh." Sister Jingying responded and was about to take it back and drink it.

He took Sister Jingying back to Uncle Daqing's house. Zhang Cheng, together with his aunt and Sister Jingying, moved things from the car to the kitchen. Some of the Uncle Daqing's bought were also put in the car.

After moving the trunk, my aunt said to Zhang Cheng: "I moved in the yard during the day. The yard is quite large and has a small pond and stream. In addition to growing vegetables, you can also raise some chickens and ducks. Where can I sell chickens and ducks here?"

Zhang Cheng: "There should be chickens and ducks selling nearby farms, so I drove around. In the past, the owners here raised turkeys and goats, so it should be fine to raise chickens and ducks. The stream was formed by the melting of ice and snow water. It was a seasonal stream that was gone in winter. It can last seven or eight months a year."

The neighbors near Daqing's new home, except for the one opposite the road, are hundreds of meters or even more away. This place is a family (vacation) ranch community that cuts the ranch into a family (vacation) ranch community that has several acres. It is normal to go out and visit neighbors to drive. This is also a preferred room type for Americans. The air here is good and the crime rate is low (you don't have to worry about being hit by a stray bomb while sleeping). Typically, they work in the city and live in the countryside. Some people also go to professionally operate small ranches to make a living.

Zhang Cheng drove out until he saw an old American man pruning fruit trees in the yard. Zhang Cheng saw the white American man wearing a straw hat, a beard, and a denim suit. He was dressed in a traditional American farmer.

Zhang Cheng walked out of the car and shouted at the fence: "Hi, please disturb me, are there any pastures for selling chicks and ducks nearby?"

The old man walked down the short ladder: "I'm very surprised, you didn't come here by making an appointment. I raise chickens here and sell chickens and eggs. If you walk forward a few dozen meters, you can see the logo of my ranch with a black chicken on it. Are you Chinese?"

Zhang Cheng: "Yes."

The old man: "Just call me Jason. I raise a very precious Chinese green-shelled hen. Of course, the price is also more expensive. If you are Chinese, you must understand its value. Come and take a look."

A large chicken farm with a chicken coop was circled at the back of Jason's yard with a dense and tall wire mesh fence. There were hundreds of large and small black feathers, black feet, black mouths and black eyes, strolling inside to find food. Outside the chicken farm, two bully dogs watching the scene, saw the owner coming, and ran to Jason's feet happily.

After only a few seconds, Zhang Cheng knew what kind of breed it was. The main ingredient in the famous tonic, Wuji Baifeng Wan, was made of this chicken. Zhang Cheng said: "It's a black chicken, and it's normal to be more expensive. The bones of this green-shelled laying hen are black, right? "

Jason: "As a matter of course, I don't need to explain too much. Not only are the bones and internal organs of the chickens black. This green-shelled laying hen's three-month-old chicken rooster is $15 per. The little hen is $50 per. The green-shelled eggs are not fertilized for one yuan or two. Because you didn't make an appointment, I can only sell you one hundred and fifty. The fertilized green-shelled eggs are five yuan per, and you can sell you one hundred and twenty."

If you look at the price alone, it is really expensive. A dozen eggs (12 pieces) in American supermarkets only sell for more than one yuan. Processed turkeys are also one or two yuan per pound. Black chickens are very small in size, and they are simply pocket chickens compared to American turkeys. However, in terms of nutritional value and taste, black chickens and black eggs are all the best for turkeys and eggs in large chicken farms. In general, it makes sense to be expensive.

Zhang Cheng took out the check book and wrote it on the check, saying, "Then I want ten little roosters, forty little hens, and one hundred non-fertilized green-shelled eggs, a total of 2,200."

"Wait for me to calculate." Jason took the check, took out his phone and turned on the calculator function. After pressing for a while, he said with emotion: "It's really 2200. Just like the legendary one, Chinese people have magical mental arithmetic power."

Zhang Chengxin said that Chinese primary school students who can’t even memorize the multiplication formulas have long been classified into the range of mentally retarded people.

After collecting the money, Jason asked his wife to go to the chicken farm to grab eggs. When he saw Jason's wife was only in her thirties, a mature American woman. Zhang Cheng felt that Jason might not be as old as he thought or that an old couple was common.

Fifty little chickens filled two cages, Jason gave eight more eggs and filled a box of nine-beat eggs. Thanks to Zhang Cheng's SUV trunk, the two cages and one box were all put in.

After loading Zhang Cheng's car, Jason reminded: "Be careful of voles at night, foxes come to steal chickens and eggs, and beware of eagles during the day to catch chickens."

After thanking Jason, Zhang Cheng returned to James' house with a cart of chickens and eggs. He moved the chicken cage to his aunt: "I bought the chickens and bought some eggs."

The aunt looked at the black chicken: "What kind of chicken is this?"

Zhang Cheng: "Black chicken has a high nutritional value. So are black eggs."

Sister Jingying also ran over and asked, "This little chicken is so dark. Do you have black chickens in the United States?"

Zhang Cheng remembered the Asian White Tiger at home, and didn’t know which generation of Americans it was introduced to the pet: “The United States may be the country with the most alien species.”

Then Zhang Cheng was leaving, and his aunt insisted on keeping Zhang Cheng for dinner. Zhang Cheng remembered that there was a nest of birds at home, and the two birds in front of him were still in the forest, so he was even more determined to leave, and finally left.

When Zhang Cheng returned to the gentle place, he saw Emma. Sister Emily couldn't help but burst into the Dantian. He carried two girls into the room and went into the room to rectify the Dharma.

Let’s talk about James. After get off work, he bought a gift to meet his old friend, and asked the driver to take it home. My aunt made beef patties in the evening and waited for Uncle Daqing to come back to reunite and have a meal. When he got home, James and his wife and daughters ate a few bites of meat patties. James suddenly remembered something, took out a can of food from a piece of clothing in the cloakroom and placed it on the table.

Jingjing asked, "Dad, what is this?"

James: "Canned meat, the welfare food I received from the church a few days ago. Only this last can is left. Speaking of which, I have eaten this in the United States for many years. Look at this last can and leave a miss."

"Oh." Jingjing now understood, this is the memory of bitterness and sweetness.

My aunt touched her tears and said, "I'm still saying that you have no news over the years. Everyone said you died in the United States. I said no, but I said that if you die, there will definitely be news. If you don't have news, you will be alive."

James looked at the can and said, "I thought I was dead over the years. It was only these few days before I could survive."

Aunt: "By the way. Zhang Cheng's child bought a lot of seasonings today, as well as two puppies and a group of chicks. You go back and settle the account for them."

Thinking of the life changes in Zhang Cheng and himself over the past few days, James smiled: "I can't settle my account with him. Don't worry, this kid is a local rich man. He only has a net profit of hundreds of millions of dollars a year. Now he is one of the richest people in the United States."

Sister Jingying: "Hundreds of millions of dollars?"

James: "You can look for newspapers in the past two days. Not only did the English newspaper report, but the Chinese newspaper also reported it. It said that his total assets exceeded 10 billion US dollars, and he accumulated wealth without listed companies and loans. It is a 100% benign asset."

Sister Jingying clapped the other party with the meat pie in her mouth: "Wow, we have had a fun with the top rich today!"

James took a bite of the meat pie: "There are gossips that he has more than a dozen beautiful women at home, and he goes out with luxury cars and planes. He takes a cruise ship every summer. He enjoys the young Chinese rich man in a low-key and mysterious way."

Yingying asked, "By the way, Dad, are we going back to the college entrance examination?"

James: "If you want to be a lawyer, an accountant, or a doctor, you might as well learn English well and take the American college entrance examination. I don't want you to go back and compete for jobs with millions of college graduates."

Jingjing asked: "What if I don't want to be a lawyer, accountant, or doctor?"

James: "Then learn cooking with your mom and prepare to tie a man's stomach to be a housewife."

Sister Jingying struggled together, why is the road to the eldest lady so difficult? Of course, if you tell this to your parents, such a decadent and unrealistic dream will be beaten.

Chinese parents are not British and American parents. They have not given their children so many fairytale dreams (including gifts from Santa Claus). In the eyes of Chinese parents, it is true that they are down-to-earth and serious.

Therefore, Chinese children are taught to study hard since childhood, and supplement their extracurricular skills such as Olympiad, calligraphy and painting, music and dance, sports expertise, etc., and hope that one day they can use these skills or learn well to go to a good university to find a good job. If a girl is married to a good family, it will be a way out - it is too realistic no matter how you look at it.

Although this is not all bad, private schools in the United States are very strict, and public schools are left to play, but when they really play all the way, they often fail. There are not a single genius who play, but the chance of one or two geniuses coming to this is very high.

After receiving 450,000 secret US Treasury bonds and some information from Zhang Cheng's lawyer, Zhuoni, from a poker face, asked his secretary to make an appointment and drove all the way to Sacramento, the capital of California.

When he arrived in Sacramento, Zhuoni first visited the daughter of a state congressman who supported the development of California's fishery. Under the operation of the daughter of this state congressman, several state congressmen soon held meetings to discuss the issue of selling a piece of fishing ground that originally belonged to a public fishing ground.

As Jonny said, this is not a big deal. California's fishery resources have actually been exhausted. It is actually a good thing that someone is willing to buy to improve the environment of the fishing grounds, because the fish are moved with the ocean currents, so it is obviously impossible to encircle such a large fishing ground. Even if the regular feeding system is adopted, it can only retain some of the fish. If there are too many fish, you still have to go out.
