The police intercepted him, and Sun Zhengdong naturally had to pull over.

I heard Sun Zhengdong mutter, "Damn! New Zealand police don't do anything serious!" Then, seeing that I was nervous, he smiled again, "Don't be afraid, it's not your business." ”

I thought to myself, it's not our business, is it their family's business?

A white policeman in uniform walked down from the police car in front, Sun Zhengdong took the initiative to open the window, and I saw Sun Zhengdong give some documents to the police, and the police opened the list.

From the communication between the two, I learned that the minimum speed limit on this road is not less than 110 kilometers per hour, because there was a section of the road just now that the road surface was not very flat, Sun Zhengdong chatted with us for a few days, causing his speed to be lower than this speed, and then someone in the car behind us called to complain, so the police came to intercept it.

In the end, Sun Zhengdong was fined 200 New Zealand dollars, which was more than 800 yuan when converted into RMB.

Me, "......". 800 yuan is quite a lot compared with China, and the problem is that it is a little slower.

"Ahem! I've been fined three times this month, we've been here for so long, sometimes we still don't dare to drive too fast on this side of the road, and the car coming from the opposite side is also driving fast, and this side of the road is full of cliffs, it's very scary!" Sun Zhengdong's lover muttered.

"Are a lot of roads in New Zealand so restricted?" I asked.

"Anyway, novices can't go on the main road, otherwise they will either be fined, or they will be required to park, and no one cares about practicing at their own doorstep, the land here is sparsely populated, and there is a lot of open space in front of the house, but they just can't go on the main road casually. ”

"Then what if the driver tells the police that he can't drive fast?" Jiang Xidang asked jokingly.

Her lover replied with a smile, "Then the police will drive you home directly and take you home, but they will still be fined, haha!"

"That's it!" Jiang Xi also smiled, "Eh, why did I see that policeman's uniform so much like a criminal policeman just now?"

Sun Zhengdong said, "New Zealand does not distinguish between traffic police, criminal police, and people's police, there is only one kind of police, and they are in charge of everything." There are only about 9,000 police officers in New Zealand, and most of these 9,000 are caught catching speeding and slow drivers on the streets. The police chief is afraid that the police will be lazy, and each police officer has a task of how many tickets to issue per month. New Zealanders refer to the police as street money printers. Therefore, in order to achieve the goal, there is no time to take care of other cases."

I, "......", had a sentence in my heart, but it is inconvenient for me to say this sentence, and I believe everyone can guess what I am going to say.

Jiang Xi glanced at me, hooked her lips and smiled, I knew that she must have thought of it with me in her heart.

After that, Sun Zhengdong drove all the way seriously, and we soon arrived at his house.

His family now lives in an independent wooden house, the house is not very big, but it is very exquisite, there are two floors so high, the front and back are all their own yards, they take care of it very beautifully, but, I took a closer look twice, I didn't plant any flowers, all the vegetables were planted, occasionally the breeze blows, and I can smell similar to sheep dung and cow dung.

Sun Zhengdong's lover went all the way into the yard and began to tell us, "We rented this house, our own Hamilton house was rented out, New Zealand greens are too expensive, cucumbers are more than 60 yuan a pound in winter, and they cost two in summer. Thirty yuan a catty, sometimes on the root of the sale, a dozen yuan, other vegetables are not cheap, and the variety is very small, there may be dozens of kinds in total, we have dozens of kinds of cabbage in China, so we grow some ourselves, occasionally buy some with it, it is convenient to eat, of course, the most important thing is to save money, these three months of planting season, at least can save more than 30,000 yuan. ”

I was shocked to hear this, and subconsciously said, "Vegetables are so expensive, isn't that meat even more unaffordable?"

Sun Zhengdong said with a smile, "That's not, the meat here is cheaper than in China, pork may be about the same as in China, about 20 yuan a catty, beef and mutton are better and cheaper than in China, and the best beef and mutton are about 25 to 31 catties." ”

"Oh, by the way, there are a lot of farms here, and animal husbandry is very well developed here. "It occurred to me that I remembered.

Jiang Xi joked, "No wonder those people in the group say that in New Zealand, if you have money, you should eat more vegetables, and if you don't have money, you should eat beef to satisfy your hunger, I didn't react at the time, hahaha!"

Chatting all the way, we walked into their house.

The house actually looks quite old, but they keep it clean and look comfortable.

"What year is this house?" Jiang Xi is sensitive to the house and is also interested.

Sun Zhengdong smiled, "This house seems to be seventy years old." ”

Jiang Xi looked shocked, "My mother, if this would have been demolished in China, wouldn't it?"

"Yes, yes, but New Zealand's development is very slow, the government has no money to demolish these houses, in addition, these are wooden houses, where it is broken and easy to repair, so, there are many old houses here are also inhabited, and the local ordinary people in New Zealand, most of them have no money to change houses, because the consumption here is high, and the wages earned can not save much, but they have good welfare, and they are not worried about being hungry when they are old, so they are originally like the people in the village, very simple, it turns out that they don't know how to fry houses, and now some people with a little money have also begun to learn to fry houses, which are all learned from the Chinese, hahaha." ！”

"Really!" Jiang Xi looked at Sun Zhengdong's lover in surprise.

Her lover immediately responded with a smile, "Of course, what did I lie to you for, the locals are very simple, they didn't think much about deposits, saving money is the most favorite thing for Chinese to do, and now New Zealand natives are also greatly influenced by us Chinese." ”

"The cannibalization power of the Chinese is still quite large, haha!" Jiang Xi laughed heartily.

I also laughed, whenever I talk about this kind of thing, there is always a feeling that when China is strong, it will begin to be influential.

Sun Zhengdong's lover continued, " I remember the last time a white neighbor of our family, wanted to buy a second-hand house, their family of five worked together to save money for almost ten years, and finally saved enough money for a big house, New Zealand's second-hand houses are auctioned, when the hostess of his family was particularly excited to chat with me, saying that they were about to auction that favorite house, I know that house, in fact, is very ordinary, is also a set of wooden houses in the late seventies, but they bought that house, a family of five to live in is much more convenient, otherwise their two teenage boys are still crowded in a small room, the whole family is looking forward to that house, as a result, a Chinese came, opened the price to increase the price of 500,000 yuan, this white man no longer has the money to add, the most important thing, the house is not worth that price at all, the Chinese may just take a fancy to it, and do not care about 500,000, so they bought the house. ”

Sun Zhengdong continued, "At that time, the neighbor's hostess also cried sadly, she said that she could no longer find a house that they could buy and that was particularly suitable for them, and she had been paying attention to that house for more than half a year, but she still didn't buy it, and the whole family was very disappointed." ”

Hearing this story, my heart is quite complicated, I don't know what to say, but as a Chinese, I still have a little careful thinking about secretly being proud of China in my heart!

I have long heard that the housing prices in New Zealand and Canada are all speculated by the Chinese, why? Because the Chinese have money!

Some people may say that my words are too cheesy, then I want to ask him, when the Chinese were poor and couldn't even eat, that was not bad, did people foreigners diao us?

That's right, now you can often see some international news report that so-and-so Chinese are of poor quality.

I just want to say, if China is not strong and China is famous, will anyone waste the news page to report the poor quality of the Chinese? No one pays attention to writing the entire page, and it is precisely because some people pay attention to China that the media will be willing to report on it.

The more black China is, the more famous and powerful China is!

Ren's father said that the reason why a certain person has become so famous now is that he has been suppressed and hacked by a certain country, because a certain way is strong, it will cause a certain country to suppress and smear.

Imagine if the internationally famous No. 1 star will compete with an extras for status and reputation in the crew? Obviously not, but she will secretly compete with the female No. 2, if she slaps the female No. 2, the fame of the female No. 2, who is not as famous as her, will soar to the sky...... That's it!

Therefore, Dad Ren has always led China's high-tech enterprises with a grateful heart and a state of gratitude, how can such a person with a sense of the overall situation not succeed?

Being in New Zealand, hearing these things makes me even more proud of China, even though I am still unemployed.

I am unemployed, it is helpless under the national conditions, our country has a large population, there are many talents, and when you are older, you will be eliminated, which is also a normal phenomenon, I think I should not blame the country for being bad, I should blame myself for not being able to prepare a second way for myself.

This is a problem of my personal ability, not a problem of the country, because there are many people who retire from their own posts and exert their spare energy in other fields, and such people are worthy of our learning!

Sun Zhengdong accompanied us to chat, her lover went to the kitchen to cook food for us, while talking, Sun Zhengdong looked at his watch and said, "I have to pick up the child, you sit for a while, wait for me to come back and talk to you." ”

"Far away?" Jiang Xi asked casually.

"Not far, six kilometers!"

Jiang Xi rolled his eyes.

Sun Zhengdong said with a smile, "It's not too far to drive, it's like a big rural area, you can't find a big supermarket within a radius of five kilometers, it's like this here, so you have to drive, and the average husband and wife need two cars, and our family plans to buy another one recently." ”

"Go pick up the kids!" Jiang Xi said.

When there was only our family of three left in the house, I asked Jiang Xi, "How do you feel?"

"Ahem!" Jiang Xi sighed and said, "The gap in my heart is still quite big, I feel it now, except that this small house feels very good, living here must be quieter and warmer than that kind of building, in other aspects, it feels like I am back to my hometown and countryside, you say, if we live here, can we grow our own vegetables?"

I blinked, and instead of answering, I asked, "Wife, do you think I'm that material?"

At this time, Sun Zhengdong's lover came out with fruit and said, "How can you let him grow vegetables, he can only help you on weekends, he must go to work on weekdays, the main source of income, you have to learn to grow vegetables!"

When I looked at it, Jiang Xi's face was a little green.

"That...... My wish since I was a child was to leave the big countryside and go to the city, and I spent half my life working hard to finally get rid of the days when I was facing the loess with my back to the sky, did I come all the way from China to New Zealand 11,167 kilometers, 6,939 miles, 6,030 nautical miles, but I want to return to the basics and become a farmer again? I don't want it!

Jiang Xi's little face was tangled and clumped, and he faked crying!

Sun Zhengdong's daughter-in-law was amused, "Not everyone grows vegetables here, people who go to work don't have time to grow vegetables, I don't have time to grow vegetables because I don't go to work, so I grow vegetables, which should also be an income to reduce the burden on the family, if you go to work, you don't need to grow your own vegetables." ”

Jiang Xi still frowned and said, "I may not be able to go to work, I can't speak English!"

After all, it is an English-speaking country, like Jiang Xi's English level, even if it is a company opened by Chinese, even if the customers are all Chinese, I am afraid that no company will want her.

"Alas, aren't you good at writing? You can write an official account, there are a lot of people here who write public accounts, those people mainly write about life in New Zealand, beautiful scenery, New Zealand scenery, just take a shot of a mobile phone is a high-definition film, there are more people who read it, the author puts New Zealand's online shopping QR code at the end of the article, someone buys something, the author has a commission, I know that there is an author who can earn 6,000 yuan a month, you should be able to write, right?"

Jiang Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "I can indeed write that thing, but ...... My ideal is to write, I hope my can be recognized, that kind of public account is written too much, I am afraid that I will not write in the future. ”

"Then you can make money by writing, Jiangdong can earn almost 20,000 yuan a month when you work, and you can save 10,000 yuan when you go to rent a house, and the living expenses of 10,000 yuan are about the same, and the money you earn can be saved. ”

Jiang Xi suddenly looked at me, that helpless look, I seemed to have read the meaning, she was just saying to me: Is our family going to rely on me to make money and deposit? What a terrible thing this is!

"Hehe!" I couldn't help but laugh and said to Sun Zhengdong's lover, "She...... Writing also belongs to ...... Newcomers! Newcomers just can't make any money, and they just want to have fun every day!"

I don't think there's anything wrong with what I said, right, but Jiang Xi squinted and glared at me fiercely.

"Poof!" I sat next to me and laughed again.

Sun Zhengdong's lover subconsciously said, "Haven't you been writing for more than ten years? You're almost forty, aren't you?"

Jiang Xi directly covered his face and lowered his head in silence.

I smiled and explained my doubts to Sun Zhengdong's lover, "In the writing industry, regardless of experience or age, as long as you have not had good grades, you are called a newcomer, and Jiang Xi is this kind of person!"

"Ahh

She thought for a moment, and suddenly said, " That's okay, as long as you really want to stay here, how can you survive, here is the autumn harvest season, there is a shortage of people to work on the farm, such as picking apples, picking a month can also earn 20,000 yuan, this autumn to do three months, basically a person's living expenses for a year will be almost out, and there is a fish cannery, you can choose temporary workers, you can also choose long-term, they want to be long-term, and there will be a free salmon reward once a week, which is also very good, this kind of work does not require English. ”

Jiang Xi's eyes rolled blankly, thought for a while, and said, "I'm not a farmer, I can't be a writer, I'm a worker?"

I blinked, just silently looking at her stunned expression, and I couldn't hold back my laughter.

Sun Zhengdong's daughter-in-law seemed to see that she might not be a worker, and suddenly said excitedly, "Oh, Jiang Xi, aren't you particularly good at buying a house? What else are you writing, you have to spend that bullish energy, and you can't make any money after all your hard work, you just speculate in New Zealand, and you can't make much money by flipping houses! Now the housing prices in New Zealand are rising rapidly!"
