Chapter 10: The First Pot of Gold

Because there is no translator, everyone is confused about what these two foreigners want to do in Yingzhou.

As for the two reporters who followed the film, they were actually an interview group of Yingzhou TV station running news outside, and they usually ran materials outside all day long.

Yingzhou is a small place, and most of the usual half-hour news programs are flooded, after all, there is no big news worth broadcasting, so it can only be filled indiscriminately.

As long as reporters hear about it, they have to go over and take a picture, so the threshold for news materials on TV stations is extremely low.

Whoever loses his dog, whose cat goes to the roof, which elementary school student picks up his wallet and sends it to the police station, reporters will come over to shoot a piece of material and report it on TV.

Therefore, as soon as these two reporters heard that the Municipal Education Bureau had come to the two foreigners, they couldn't help but come over.

Both of them pondered, in case a foreign businessman came to Yingzhou for inspection, wouldn't this be big news?

After all, Yingzhou has not introduced any foreign businessmen in recent years.

But they didn't expect that they followed all the way and found that none of these people could communicate smoothly with each other.

Not to mention the two reporters, the photojournalists studied in a technical school and could only say Yes and No in English;

The reporter is not highly educated, he is the son of a TV station worker, he just graduated from a junior college last year, and after graduation, his family arranged to join the TV station as a reporter, and he has always been a scumbag in school, so he has not studied English at all.

So the two reporters could only follow the photo first, and like the leaders of the Education Bureau, they were also waiting for the English teacher of Yingzhou No. 1 Middle School to come over.

However, the English teacher of Yingzhou No. 1 Middle School couldn't wait, which made the three waves of people on the scene a little impatient......

Just when Thomas Rauter was at a loss for this, he suddenly heard an authentic English colloquial and said, "Hello sir, do you need a Chinese translator?"

When Thomas Rauter heard this authentic British pronunciation, he was overjoyed, and even subconsciously thought that the accent he was talking to must be an Englishman.

However, when he followed the prestige, he found a Chinese teenager looking at him with a smile.

It was Xu Yiyang who spoke.

Thomas Lauter looked at Xu Yiyang, suddenly became excited, and said, "My God, I finally met someone who can communicate normally!"

As he spoke, he walked up to Xu Yiyang, shook his hand vigorously, and asked expectantly, "Young man, can you be my translator?"

Xu Yiyang smiled slightly and said, "Of course you can!"

Thomas Rauter excitedly said, "This is amazing!"

Director Cai and his entourage next to him, as well as two reporters, were stunned.

They had been worried that they could not communicate with foreigners, and when they were anxious, they did not expect a young man to suddenly appear, speaking decent English, and chatting happily with Thomas Raut.

Thomas Raute asked Xu Yiyang excitedly: "Young man, what is your name?"

Xu Yiyang said: "My name is Xu Yiyang. ”

"My name is Thomas Rauter, you can call me Thomas Rauter!"

As he spoke, he asked again: "Xu, how much do you charge for being a translator? If you can, I want to hire you to be my translator!"

Xu Yiyang originally wanted to come out and pretend to be a wave and take this opportunity to give himself some exposure, so he didn't want to make his money at all.

But he didn't expect that this foreigner would take the initiative to pay himself.

After all, he is an international friend, and he subconsciously wants to carry forward his hospitable style and refuse to be rewarded.

But on second thought, carry forward the style of a fart!

Your pocket is cleaner than your face, and you have such an opportunity to make money, which style do you still carry forward?

So, he looked at Thomas Raute and the blonde woman beside him, thought for a moment, and said, "Mr. Lauter, I have not done a translator, so I don't know what the price is. ”

Xu Yiyang is actually a chicken thief.

In these years, the prices in Huaxia are very low, and the prices in Yingzhou are even lower.

But what's the point of a few hundred dollars? It's enough to pay off the debt you owe to your sister.

Rather than this, it is better to let this foreigner look at it himself, it should be a little more than a few hundred yuan.

The reason why Xu Yiyang has this confidence is because he can see at a glance that this foreigner is a rich man.

Most of the people in Yingzhou in 1999 had never seen any luxury goods.

Although Xu Yiyang does not pursue these, after all, he has experienced all kinds of experiences in later generations, and naturally knows many luxury brands.

Therefore, he has long discovered that this foreigner is a famous brand from head to toe.

For example, Thomas Rauter, his coat is Zegna's, the sweater inside is Armani's, and the leather shoes are Gucci's, which are all luxury brands.

Look at his wife again, the trench coat she wears is Burberry's, the silk scarf around her neck is McQueen's, and what's more, she also carries a Hermes leather bag.

Xu Yiyang felt that these two people were so rich, and they shouldn't be too picky.

Sure enough, as soon as Thomas Raute heard that he was looking at it, he took out his wallet on the spot, took out six foreign currencies with a face value of 100 yuan from it, handed them to Xu Yiyang, and said: "Xu, this is 600 German marks, which should be worth about 3,000 yuan. ”

Xu Yiyang was stunned, and thought, is 3,000 yuan a bit too much?

Xu Yiyang couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Raute, did you give a little too much......

Thomas Rauter blurted out, "No, no, no, not at all! Your English is great, totally worth the price!"

Xu Yiyang thought about it, since the other party is so insistent, then don't be polite, this 600 German marks is the first pot of gold after his rebirth!

So, he generously took the money and carefully put it in the inner pocket of the down jacket.

Then, he said to Thomas Rauter very seriously: "Mr. Lauter, from now on, I will be your Chinese translator." ”

Thomas Raute hurriedly said to Xu Yiyang: "Xu, please tell them that I came to Yingzhou to fulfill my grandfather's two wishes, one is to scatter part of his ashes into the Yellow River, and the other is to donate a sum of money to Yingzhou on his behalf, which should only be used for education. ”

"Okay. Xu Yiyang nodded, turned to the middle-aged official and said, "Hello, I am now the temporary translator of Mr. Thomas Lauter, he just said ......"

Immediately, Xu Yiyang translated Thomas Raut's words completely in real time on the spot.

He translated a lot of paragraphs, without a pause and stumbling, and everyone was stunned when they listened.

If it weren't for the fact that the translated content sounded very reliable, no one present could believe that this young man could really communicate with foreigners so easily.

After hearing this, Director Cai immediately sighed, patted Xu Yiyang's shoulder, and said happily: "Young man, your appearance is so timely!"

As he spoke, he immediately said to the secretary who followed him: "Call the principal of No. 1 Middle School and tell him that he doesn't need to send a teacher over." ”

His secretary hurriedly whispered, "Principal Lin called me back just now, saying that someone had just set off. ”

Director Cai frowned and said, "When you use them, you can't grind and chirp, what's the use of coming now? Tell him and call someone back for me!"

Although Director Cai's own English foundation is almost zero, he can still see that Xu Yiyang's English level should be very high.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to communicate with this foreigner so smoothly, and it would be impossible for this foreigner to immediately pay for him to be a translator, after all, foreigners themselves recognize his level.

If you still let the teacher from the No. 1 Middle School come over at this time, it will not only add to the painting, but also may be embarrassing.

The secretary took out an old handheld mobile phone and hurriedly went to the side to make a call.

Director Cai looked at Xu Yiyang and asked curiously, "Young man, what do you call it?"

"Hello Director Cai, my surname is Xu, and my name is Xu Yiyang. ”

Director Cai nodded and asked with a smile: "Young man, you must be a college student who came home from winter vacation, right?

Xu Yiyang shook his head and said, "I am a student of Yingzhou No. 1 Middle School. ”

"What? You're a high school student?"
