The eldest Li Yang and the fourth child also nodded frequently beside them, indeed, it was the first time they came to New York, of course, they wanted to appreciate the charm of the world-famous Big Apple.

As for the squad leader and a few other ladies, they didn't express their opinions, anyway, now the opinions they want to express have the upper hand, just listen.

"Okay, okay, let's go outside first, the night view of New York is also very good. ”

Looking at everyone depressedly, Su Rui reluctantly raised her hand and surrendered, who let this be her inconsiderate, not everyone has the opportunity to go abroad.

Now that the opinions have been unified, Qin Xu got up and announced the adjournment of this temporary meeting, and everyone in the meeting went back to clean up, and gathered in the hotel lobby ten minutes later.

By the time everyone had changed their clothes and gone downstairs, Qin Xu had already asked Dale to drive the Knight XV to the door of the hotel.

"Meng Yao, will it be a little crowded, do you want the hotel to prepare another car?"

Qin Xu looked at everyone, a little worried that they would feel too crowded, after all, there were so many people in one car, although the space of Knight XV was large, it would definitely give people a feeling of crowding.

Anyway, it's not bad for money now, Qin Xu is ready to ask the hotel to send a car to follow behind.

Nodding, Xu Mengyao said, "Then let the hotel prepare a car, it's a little crowded." ”

So when everyone set off, a lengthened Mercedes-Benz was followed behind Knight XV. The eldest and fourth couples, Wang Xiaole and Zhou Qian, sat in the car behind.

Wang Xiaole and Zhou Qian are the two classmates who came with the class leader this time. Wang Xiaole and Qin Xu were second only to the brothers in the dormitory when they were in college, but after graduation, they had less contact, and now I feel that he can't let go of himself.

Qin Xu knew that this was an inevitable result, after all, he was not a rich man now, and he was also grateful that his brothers had not changed much, otherwise he would have died of depression.

Because Qin Xu is not very familiar with New York, the hotel is very considerate and equipped them with a tour guide. Qin Xu was very puzzled at first, he obviously has two cars, what is the use of you having a tour guide?

The tour guide explained on the way, but the car behind couldn't hear it. However, all these doubts disappeared after seeing the driver running behind him.

Because Qin Xu saw that the driver of the car was a black man, a black driver! There is a black driver who claims to be able to compare with BJ's brother, do you still need a tour guide?

"Mr. Qin, please believe all the rumors you have heard about this city, because this city is even more bizarre than those rumors. Because New York's residents come from many countries, as long as you have a leisurely itinerary and an open mind, you will experience the unique flavor of New York. ”

Listening to the white girl named Pauline Cocker in the front row, introducing them to the city of New York in slightly stiff Chinese, Qin Xu only felt a sense of pride.

When the world's hotels can be equipped with proficient and professional tour guides specifically for Chinese tourists, it will be the best performance of the country's strength.

Whenever you see a certain scenic spot recruiting tour guides, you are required to have a few levels of English. What is recruited in such and such a place, and how many levels of English are required. Qin Xu felt very painful. Of course, this is directly related to the fact that he took the English level 4 test that year, and he couldn't take the test N times, which is directly related.

"New York City has a lot of attractions, in every neighborhood, but the most famous tourist attractions are concentrated in MIDtown, and some are in commercial centers, such as the Statue of Liberty and the New York Stock Exchange. ”

Knight XV soon arrived at the first attraction in the plan, the famous Statue of Liberty, a huge statue that symbolizes "freedom to illuminate the world", a symbol of the United States and the most famous symbol of New York.

The statue is 46 meters high, 93 meters plus pedestal, weighs 225 tons (490,000 pounds), and is cast in metal. The whole bronze statue is made of 120 tons of steel as the skeleton and 80 tons of copper sheets as the skin, which is assembled and fixed on the bracket with 300,000 rivets.

The spiral staircase inside the statue allows visitors to climb its head, which is equivalent to climbing a 12-storey building (due to its height, an elevator was later installed from the base to facilitate the entry and exit of visitors).

The Statue of Liberty sits on a 46-meter-high concrete pedestal that was built by the famous Joseph Pulitzer for $100,000 and has become a museum of American immigration history.

On the pedestal of the granite statue is engraved a well-known poem by the American poetess Emma Lazarus, "The New Giant":

"Let those who have been exhausted and penniless from the long journey because they long to breathe the air of freedom snuggle up to each other and throw themselves into my arms! ”

Goddess Liberty is dressed in an ancient Greek style and wears a radiant crown with seven pointed rays symbolizing the seven continents of the world. The 12.8-meter-long torch is held in the right hand and can accommodate 12 people standing on the edge of the torch.

In his left hand, he holds a copy of a legal book with the inscription "July 4, 1776" on the cover, symbolizing the Declaration of Independence signed on this day;

Beneath are shattered handcuffs, shackles and chains, symbolizing freedom from tyranny.

And its posture resembles an ancient Greek beauty, which makes people feel kind and natural. When night falls, the light of the statue's pedestal shines upwards, illuminating the goddess like a pale blue jade carving. 、

Look at the statue in front of you, shrouded in the lights of the night, and look like a statue of the world. Qin Xu felt that it was just like that, just like the big Buddhas in those temples in China, it belonged to a kind of faith.

However, Su Rui, a beautiful lawyer, and the boss were very interested in this, and took photos with Statue of Liberty one by one, and finally Qin Xu was also interested. pulled Xu Mengyao to stand together, and asked the second child to take a photo.

Later, Qin Xu and the others followed the tour guide to the famous Chinatown, which is the largest Chinese community outside Asia, with more than 150,000 Chinese living here.

Wander around Chinatown, feel the lively surroundings, and watch the roast whole pig hanging in front of the butcher shop. Smell the smell of fresh fish and roasted persimmons in the air. Qin Xu and the others suddenly felt that their stomachs began to growl.

"Would you like to go shopping for something to eat?"

Qin Xu looked at Xu Mengyao, who was holding her little belly, and proposed.

"Well, forget it, let's go shopping for a while and find a Western restaurant, after all, everyone is from China, let's eat something fresh." ”

Holding his little belly and tangled for a while, he looked at the boss again, and Xu Mengyao whispered in Qin Xu's ear.

Qin Xu thought about it, it was not enough to eat Chinese food in China, so he couldn't come to the United States and take them to eat Chinese food.

Smashing it, smashing it, Qin Xu swallowed his saliva vigorously, turned his head and led everyone to continue to the next attraction.
