Looking at Xiao Peng's skeptical expression, Lao Zheng pouted at Uncle Ji: "Look at Uncle Ji, I've been here for more than 30 years. Back then, the two of them worked hard to come here. In his own words, in the first year he came, he brushed all the bowls of his life. ”

Xiao Peng smiled bitterly: "It seems that brushing dishes is something that I have experienced when I came to work in the Stars and Stripes." How did they get here?"

"How else can you come? Lao Zheng replied.

"Refugees?" Xiao Peng frowned.

Lao Zheng looked at Xiao Peng's expression and smiled: "This is not an uncommon thing, didn't we just get out of family planning in Huaxia at that time? The two of them found a lawyer who contacted here, made a fake document, saying that they were religious people, but they were forced to have an abortion by the government and seek asylum in the Stars and Stripes country, and the foreigner was willing to listen to this, so the two of them successfully passed the visa officer interview and obtained the right of residence." This is not uncommon here, and there are quite a few lawyers in the Stars and Stripes who specialize in making up stories. ”

Xiao Peng smiled: "This is also trying my best to stay here." ”

Lao Zheng nodded and said: "The old couple stayed here for more than ten years before they got their green cards, and later opened a small restaurant. All of us used to work in his restaurant. The boss of the party service company seems to like to eat the food he cooks very much, and it just so happens that the job he took this time requires Chinese food, so he let him come, and he organized us to make some money. ”

Xiao Peng's heart was cold after hearing this, foreigners like to eat the food he cooks? It's not the Chinese food of the Stars and Stripes, right? But he was more curious about other things: "What are the rules he just said?"

Lao Zheng was surprised when he heard this: "You don't even know, we have to share half of the money we make with him!"

Xiao Peng was dumbfounded: "Damn, isn't this the exploitation of Hongguoguo?"

Lao Zheng glanced at Uncle Ji and whispered: "You be quiet, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have this chance to make this money, wouldn't we?" Let me tell you, the money here is very generous, I heard that it is forty dollars an hour, you know, do things at other banquets." That's $20 an hour. And it's a cash transaction, which can be evaded with taxes. This belongs to pie-in-the-sky money. ”

Xiao Peng blinked, it seems that the party service company over there is also quite dark, I asked him, as long as the kitchen staff here is qualified, the hourly wage is 200 US dollars. As a result, it became forty dollars when it came to Uncle Ji, and then it became twenty dollars in the hands of the rest of the people, which is layer by layer.

Looking at Xiao Peng's expression, Lao Zheng thought that Xiao Peng didn't believe his words: "Do you think I'm kidding you? Now I work odd jobs in Boston, and it costs about five dollars an hour to go to the supermarket, if I can get a job as a cleaner, it will cost about fifteen dollars an hour, and if I can get a job as a cleaner, it will cost about fifteen dollars an hour to tidy up the lawn." The hourly wage for brushing dishes is about five dollars, and if you do the math, this is not as cost-effective as here. Besides, now Uncle Ji is also in urgent need of money, and if you are away from home, if you can help each other, help each other. ”

Xiao Peng asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Lao Zheng sighed: "You may not know, now in the Stars and Stripes Country, the people who stay in the Stars and Stripes Country in the way that Uncle Ji and his family seek refuge in this way, if not 100,000, but also 80,000, the purpose is for the welfare of the Stars and Stripes Country, can the Stars and Stripes Country be original?

Regardless of whether the person who has acquired nationality or the right of abode has been granted is within the scope of the investigation, on the grounds that 'the liar cannot be benefited'. If it is found, it will be repatriated, and those who have obtained the right of abode are fine, but if those who have obtained nationality are found out, it will be really troublesome. ”

"Why, isn't it better to get a nationality?" Xiao Peng didn't understand.

Lao Zheng explained: "Getting the right of abode is like you not bringing the key and then staying at my house for a while. Later, my family asked you to leave, whether you want to or not, you have to leave. Therefore, after obtaining the right of abode, they will be repatriated to China after being found. In the same way, those who have obtained nationality will also be repatriated, but we in China do not recognize dual nationality, and when they get the nationality of the Stars and Stripes, it is equivalent to automatically giving up their Chinese nationality.

After hearing this, Xiao Peng wanted to say 'deserved' from the bottom of his heart, but after thinking about it, he held back: "If you send it back, you will send it back, what's the big deal?"

"What's the big deal? These people don't need money to come to the Stars and Stripes Country? Except for those real rich people, who didn't smash pots and sell iron? If you don't earn the money back, won't you lose money?" Lao Zheng's eyes widened.

Xiao Peng blinked and changed the subject: "You are doing all this work here, don't you feel aggrieved?"

Lao Zheng's eyes widened after hearing this: "Hey, you kid, I kindly told you that you still look down on me?" I tell you kid, I will tutor a foreigner's child every night, and now that our country is strong, more and more people are learning Chinese. I went to take the Massachusetts Basic Education Qualification Test and the Chinese Special Exam to be qualified to teach Chinese. ”

Xiao Peng asked curiously, "Then the income should be good, right?"

"Two hours a night, $80! For example, those international students are not qualified to secretly be tutors, and an hour is only $10 to 15 dollars. Lao Zheng said proudly.

Xiao Peng blinked: "It doesn't seem like much in a month like this." Brother Zheng, can you earn so much money with such a good teaching qualification?"

Lao Zheng was anxious when he heard this: "Such a 'point' of money? Don't it hurt if you really stand and talk! The most annoying thing is that you have just come out, you really think that this Stars and Stripes Country is full of gold, and you can pick it up by bending down?" Let me tell you, I don't know how many people are jealous of me!"

Xiao Peng asked suspiciously: "Brother Zheng, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else when I say this, I mean that you have worked so hard to get such a difficult qualification certificate, and I feel that your comeback is not proportional to the rewards you get." I'll cry out for you. ”

Lao Zheng looked embarrassed after hearing this: "Well, in fact, my qualification has just been won for less than two months, and there will be more and more student unions in the future。。。。。。 I don't make a lot of money now, so I came out to do odd jobs. ”

Xiao Peng stretched out his thumb: "Anyway, if you can get this certificate, it will be very awesome." Listening to what you said is so complicated, ordinary people really can't pass the test. ”

Lao Zheng heard this bitter smile: "When I was in China, I was a university English teacher, but now it's good that I came here to teach Chinese." ”

Xiao Peng was completely dumbfounded: "Ah?" Looking at Lao Zheng, this domestic university teacher came here to do a small job? Xiao Peng really wanted to ask him what he thought.

Lao Zheng looked at Xiao Peng and asked himself: "You definitely don't understand what I think, right? To be honest, I don't even know what I think now, there is no after-sales in the world."

Isn't it repentant?"

Lao Zheng also opened the conversation: "I have a lot of friends who have immigrated here, saying that the policy of 500,000 US dollars in investment immigration is about to pass, hurry up and immigrate here, there is no immigration prison, you can freely enter and exit the Stars and Stripes country, and enjoy social benefits such as medical care and education here." I'm stupid, and I really believe it. I'm kind of middle-class in China, right? My parents were also teachers, and the family got together and came to the Stars and Stripes Country with 500,000 dollars. ”

"When I got here, I found that it was not as simple as I imagined, 500,000 dollars, how much is left after buying a house, and 500,000 dollars is basically our family's life savings. So you have to start from scratch. I admit that in the Stars and Stripes, those Chinese white-collar workers and high-level talents who go to first-class universities and find decent jobs are very rare, and most people, whether they are smuggled in, seek asylum and stay, or what kind of skilled immigrants, as long as they are not those super-rich who are worth hundreds of millions, have to look for jobs here. ”

"It's not hard to find in the Stars and Stripes, but it's also a low-level job, and it's easy to find a job at the bottom of China. We are short of migrant workers in China, and there is a shortage of migrant workers in the Stars and Stripes country, and it is the same in any corner of the world, and there is no shortage of people for those jobs with status. What we look at at the migrant workers in China, the people of the stars and stripes look at us. You go to the 'Costto' supermarket. 80% of the bargains in it are Chinese. Everyone who returned home from here was brightly dressed, but what about here? It was worse than the other. Let me tell you, brother, when the time comes, I will go back, and working here is similar to the black slaves of the past. This is not the place for people. ”

Xiao Peng scratched his head: "Then are your parents here?"

Lao Zheng smiled bitterly: "My parents ask me all day when I will apply for a reunion and let them come over. How can I let them come over? Suffer with me? How can I still suffer outside at such an age as Uncle Ji! Many Chinese people in the Stars and Stripes country have come here, all of them have stable jobs and have children, and then take their parents over, why is this so? Let their parents be free nannies, so that they can go out to work by themselves! Brother, listen to my brother, this is really not heaven!"

"You two are chatting very energetically, how are you doing?" Uncle Ji walked over with the written menu.

After hearing this, Lao Zheng smiled and said: "Uncle Ji, you can rest assured, you can do it while chatting, which is easy and efficient." This boy is faster than I am, where did you get that?"

"Oh. Lao Li introduced it. Uncle Ji replied.

Lao Zheng looked at the menu in his hand: "Uncle Ji, the recipe is out?"

Uncle Ji nodded: "Come out, I'll go find them to have a look." By the way, Xiao Qian, how is the signature cake baked?"

"Of course it's baked. Uncle Ji, don't worry about me. The man on the other side of the oven said.

When Xiao Peng heard the words 'signature cake', his heart was full of sighs. Fortunately, Lao Zheng spoke at this time: "Uncle Ji, let's take a look at the menu." We have a number in mind. ”

Uncle Ji nodded: "It's okay for you to take a look and prepare the raw materials." After speaking, he handed the menu to Lao Zheng, and the rest of the people in the kitchen gathered around and looked at the menu together.

Xiao Peng was curious, and tilted his head to take a look, but was taken aback after seeing it: "You are going to prepare these at night?" (https:)
