Daniel had already asked for the address of his cousin James, who had just had time and asked them to go now.

When he took a taxi, he actually met the driver who had cheated him before, Su Mu was a little unhappy, but the taxi driver was cheeky and greeted him.

Menlo Park is just a small town, almost every household has a car or two, and there are so many taxis running on the street, so it's not surprising to come across them.

The luggage is still in the school, Su Mu really wants to set up the dormitory today, otherwise it will be troublesome, mainly because the cost of staying in a hotel is relatively high, and he is reluctant to spend this unnecessary money.

For the time being, I don't know the cost of renting a house, and I don't know how big the room is, as for the decoration, he doesn't care too much, even if the house in the rich area is worse, it is better than the room he lived in since he was a child, and the nearby environment is a lot higher than Chinatown.

From the courtyard of the villa, you can see the security situation in an area, few residents in Menlo Park have set up fences around the garden, and the windows on the first floor are not equipped with anti-theft windows, which is enough to show that the security in this area is very good, and I saw several police cars along the way, which is also the standard configuration in wealthy areas, and the residents are almost all white.

Menlo Park covers an area of only about 40 square kilometers, if you take a square analogy, the length and width are only 7 kilometers, and there are about 18 square kilometers of water, which shows how small this small city is, not as big as the entire China City in Los Angeles, after crossing a park, the driver smiled and said: "Now we are in Palo Alto City, are you going to visit Stanford, I can tell you where to play." ”

Daniel really didn't have any eyes, and replied to the driver briskly: "No, let's go see the house, go to my cousin, he is a student at Stanford, majoring in computer engineering." ”

“...... Well, it's probably Daniel. Su Mu thought to himself.

The thought was interrupted by the old driver's inquiry:

"Chinese (Chinese)? Are you going to go to Stanford, I know that you yellow people have good academic performance, there are many in college, but you look so small, you can't tell how old the yellow people are from your appearance alone, and they age very slowly." ”

"Last time, there was a Korean woman in her 40s, I thought she was in her twenties, and I didn't know that her daughter had gone to college after drinking, and I didn't dare to mention dating her. ”

Su Mu heard it, didn't bother to take care of the driver, and replied: "Well, Chinese, I'm going to be admitted to Stanford in the future." ”

Usually treat money as a baby, the last time he took the car by the other party to go to three dollars, although the money is not much, but he lost his good impression of the driver, looking at the scenery outside the window, there is no meaning to chat.

He can remember that he has a smarter brain than ordinary people, and he will live in this strange area for several years, of course, he must first understand the streets, and when he was at home, Su Mu's mother wanted to buy something, and asked him where to buy it.

Calming down from the joy of leaving home, and encountering a small crisis with nowhere to live, he began to feel a little homesick.

Others ask which country, can not distinguish the difference between Chinese, overseas Chinese, Chinese and the like, except for the official organization, no one will be so fine, yellow people can distinguish the subtle differences in the appearance of residents of different countries, but in the eyes of whites and blacks, they are almost the same, so often ask "Chinese", "Japanese", who cares whether they were born in the United States, or later immigrated to the United States.

The driver didn't continue to chat, because Daniel's cousin James lived in the neighborhood, called "Oak Avenue", which is the name of many places in the United States, in fact, there were plane trees planted on the side of the road, and there was no shadow of the oak tree at all.

It cost eight dollars to take a taxi, the price is not high, Su Mu paid for the fare, Daniel accompanied him to find a house, he couldn't let him pay, the two were not familiar to that point, carrying a heavy backpack, observing the situation nearby.

It is also a rich villa area, and the yard at the door of each house is extraordinarily large, and you can walk your dog.

There are also some residents who plant flowers in the yard, oleanders are in full bloom, and the appearance of the house is a bit old, with a unique charm, just by looking at the appearance, you know that the rent will definitely not be low.

Daniel stood beside Su Mu and sniffed, and asked him curiously, "What kind of food are you in your bag, I wanted to ask you before, and I can always smell the fragrance." ”

"Yanjing roast duck, my dad asked me to take it and give it to my roommates to taste, but I didn't expect that I didn't have any roommates at all, let's find a place to eat together later?" Su Mu patted his schoolbag and asked him, "I haven't eaten at noon, and I'm a little hungry." ”

With an OK gesture, Daniel smiled, "Okay! I can go buy some pizza and find a place to sit." ”

Thinking that it was a combination of Chinese and Western, Su Mu couldn't help but be happy, and continued: "Then it's decided, the house is in 24B, right, the street is right." ”

"How do you know that's right?"

“...... The street sign says that this is 3A, let's go ahead and take a look, maybe across the road. ”

"Great, or call again and let my cousin pick me up. ”

After listening to this, Su Mu wanted to tell him that he didn't need to, and that he could always find it if he looked for it.

Immediately found a beautiful girl, leading the dog to meet him, and immediately guessed that Daniel was making excuses and wanted to take out the big brother to show off, so he kept silent and tossed him around......

After the call, a young man named Daniel James arrived quickly, still wearing the Stanford University badge on his chest, and sure enough, he was one of the two students he had seen in the Greyhound bus in the morning, he didn't recognize Su Mu, but Su Mu remembered him.

Before the seventies, Stanford University was still unknown and known as the "farm university", but now it is different, the university has been surrounded by high-tech companies, its reputation is skyrocketing, and students are proud of this school, especially computer science students, who are in demand everywhere they go, no one wears the emblem of a community college, and everyone has vanity.

"You want to rent a house? We also have a room there, there is a senior who just moved out after work, but it's a bit messy, you need to clean it yourself, or you can ask someone to clean it. ”

These were the first words Daniel James said to Sumu, who continued: "I would have been willing to help out in normal times, but today Ms. Audrey Hepburn came to visit our school, and I didn't want to miss the opportunity to meet her up close. ”

"Cousin, I'm going too!" Daniel exclaimed, for there were very few people in the United States who did not like Audrey Hepburn, both in terms of her appearance and character.

Su Mu is also her fan, but the house is more important to him at the moment, listening to them talk for a long time in the car, he understands that James has a good personality, and replied with a smile: "Just clean up myself, can you tell me about the house? rent, how many people live in it, etc." ”

"Plus there are three of us, and there is an empty bedroom with a view of the garden outside, the disadvantage is that the light hours are relatively short, but it is not bad...... How about six hundred dollars a month?"

James suddenly thought of something, and spoke again: "By the way, there is a sophomore who just moved in in April, who is Chinese like you, from Xiangjiang, and drives a Ferrari, but has a general relationship with us, rarely talks, and the empty room is next door to him." ”

Su Mu was a little confused, and had already guessed that if nothing else, it should be the Li Zhekai he had seen at the gate of the Menlo Park campus, a Chinese student at Stanford University who drove a Ferrari, and there should not be many......
