Chapter 36: Tony
Across the ocean, Texas.
Tony is in the stable on his farm, tending to the foals his father has just bought him.
Between the brushes, he complained to Uncle Clark, who was washing the car nearby, "Why do you have to bathe it?"
Uncle Clark put away the high-pressure water gun, turned back to little Tony and smiled, "If you want to be a qualified cowboy, you can't take care of your partner!"
"I know ......"
Tony hung his head and muttered, "But I don't think I can be a cowboy." ”
"Listen Tony!
Clark clapped his hands and encouraged, "Horseback riding is easy, you have to believe in yourself! I'm sure you're going to be an all-Texas ...... Oh no, the best cowboy in America!"
"It's not a question of horseback riding......"
Little Tony put down the brush and grabbed one of his blonde hair in pain: "Dad told me that I am the farmer's son, and I will only be a farmer in the future, not a cowboy who helps!"
Clark: "......"
Sounds so reasonable!
Although he doesn't quite understand Tony's thoughts, Clark is still willing to talk about the future with his old friend's son.
"It would be a shame not to see Tony galloping around the farm, and I think Miss Gwen would be disappointed. ”
"She's not going to be disappointed, Peter's nerds are her favorite. Tony grunted.
Clark had a wry smile of helplessness on his face, and the children's relationship was too complicated for him to scratch his head.
Probably too much of his patience was consumed, and Tony soon got tired of bathing the foals and dropped the brush and went back to his room.
"There was a burglary in San Antonio, and the robbers were all killed by the victims...... A massive shootout broke out in the eastern neighborhood due to the revenge of the accomplices......"
The folk customs are simple, and Texas is daily.
Little Tony pulled a can of Coke out of the fridge, pulled the tab and sat down on the couch.
"What the hell is FOX doing?"
Looking at the time, little Tony thought impatiently.
Why are you still broadcasting the news when this is all over?
What about the tenth episode?
Just as little Tony was thinking, the door was pushed open, and the bearded daddy walked in.
"Hi Tony, your YOYO!"
Casually throwing the toy box in his hand to Tony on the sofa, Howard rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Listen baby, I didn't interfere with your thoughts, but I think ...... Don't buy toys like this in the future!"
"Why?"
Little Tony took the box of the latest Firepower Silver S thrown by his father, turned his head and asked.
"Hell, why are you asking?"
Howard complained: "I've never seen such a money-hungry toy dealer, a piece of broken plastic can be sold for $29.9!"
Hopefully it's just a dream!
Hailed by the cowboys as "the shrewd and capable Howard", he actually paid $30 for a piece of torn plastic, if this was spread out, how would he mix it up?
PD company, right?
Very good! Today's feud, Howard wrote it down.
Faced with his father's bared teeth, little Tony didn't feel anything. What about $29.9?
Seeing that his son didn't want to deal with him, Howard poured himself a glass of water, then sat on the other end of the sofa and said, "This broken plastic ......"
"YOYO!" Tony corrected without looking back.
“OK!YOYO!”
Howard took a deep breath and said in the most resentful tone of his life, "What's the use of this thing? Tony, you have to learn how to manage money! Even if you can't be a rich man like me, at least you shouldn't do such a stupid thing......
Buying a lump of plastic for $30 is not something a shrewd farmer's son can do!
Howard hopes that his son will understand his painstaking efforts, that toys can be bought, but that he should also avoid being slaughtered as pigs.
He didn't have such heartache when he bought Tony a robot dog that started at $100, after all, the craftsmanship of the robot dog was worth the price at a glance.
But this YOYO......
Frankly, it's a lump of Shet!
"It's a popular school toy in the United States, every boy plays with it! It can be used as a weapon, it's cool!" Tony replied with a smile as he wrapped the string.
"But that's not going to be that expensive, is it?"
Howard said with a slight hesitation when he heard that this-like plastic was actually popular all over the United States.
Popular all over the United States?
He wasn't the only one who was slaughtered?
That's much more comfortable.
"Haha! It's normal to be expensive, after all, it's an imported toy, and there are tariffs levied by the congressional masters. Clark walked in at some point and smiled at Howard.
"Imported?"
Howard's face changed suddenly: "The salesperson told me that this is from California......"
"Look at this...... made in huaxia!”
Clark picked up the torn plastic box that Tony had left on the ground and pointed to a product message behind it.
Howard's face darkened.
"It's a scam! They're criminal......"
"The salesman must be a spy who broke into Texas, and that Bichi actually said that PD Company is an American company!
It just so happened that FOX ended the news coverage and started broadcasting the imported overseas drama "YOYO" after a commercial!
"Oh Shet! There must be an unknown shady scene in this!FOX This group of bitches is actually an accomplice?" Howard scolded.
Clark patted his old friend on the shoulder, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Calm down man, FOX hasn't been doing this kind of thing for a day or two, you should learn to get used to it!"
"Haven't you read the newspapers for the past two days?"
"No...... Did something happen?" Howard asked.
Clark said with a smile: "If you read the newspaper, you won't scold FOX! After all, the blame for this matter is not Fox, but the damn PD company!"
"What did they do?"
Clark raised an eyebrow: "This company has set different prices for its toy products and used them in different markets. The difference between the high price zone and the low price zone is enough to buy several copies of the same product in their home country. ”
"High-priced area, low-price area?"
Howard was immediately dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses and scold: "Hell, who came up with this discriminatory method? I suggest that the CIA should immediately send someone to arrest him and send him to prison to pick up soap ......."
"I think so too, but it's a pity that the other party's plan is legal and reasonable, even if the lord of Capitol Hill comes forward, he can't pick and veto. ”
Clapping his hands, Clark then said, "It's not our turn to worry about this kind of thing, look at the old man! Don't forget what day it is!"
"Of course I didn't forget!"
Howard changed his previous gloomy face, showed a tacit evil smile, grabbed Clark's shoulders and squeezed his eyebrows, and said, "You're right, a happy party is waiting for us, let's go quickly!"
After the two old men left, they heard the roar of the pickup engine starting from the courtyard, and little Tony sighed helplessly.
"Mommy seems to have signed up too...... Damn, I don't have a half-brother, do I?"
"Or... Half-sister?"
