July 4th, Independence Day, is a very important holiday for people on this continent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, Li Du did not have a sense of belonging to the United States, so he did not go to the festival celebration, and Hans did not go, so the two decided to go to the old house auction community to find out the situation.

Trucks pass the road, the junction is blocked, and soon a procession will pass by.

Hans took a sip of beer and scolded, "Didn't you say that the American economy was in crisis?

Li Du looked at him in horror: "Brother, you are an American citizen, how can you talk like that?

Hans shrugged and said, "What I like is Franklin. ”

As he spoke, he took out a green hundred-dollar bill from his pocket and kissed it twice.

Godzilla turned the steering wheel in silence, the truck swerved deftly, and then crossed two paths and left downtown Flagpole City.

Follow the road northwest and you'll arrive at the small town of Carpenter they're going to, and if you continue driving, you'll end up in Las Vegas.

The town is a beautiful desert town, with its meandering rivers and abundant groundwater, which give birth to the town and form an oasis.

After seeing a large number of red and yellow deserts along the way, Li Du suddenly saw a piece of green, which was a small grassland, on which some cattle and sheep were grazing leisurely, and two sheepdogs were playing happily.

"It's in Carpentertown, isn't it?" he asked, looking at the scenery outside.

Hans nodded, "On this road, you see green, and that's to Carpentertown." ”

"I think I've heard the name Carpenter somewhere, and it's a famous town. Li Du said thoughtfully.

Hans looked at him in shock: "Carpenter, you don't know, Carpenter, Carpenter, Carpenter, they are very famous!"

Li Du smiled awkwardly: "Maybe, I haven't heard much of their songs." ”

"Yesterday again, Top of the World, please wait a minute, Mr. Postman, you haven't heard any of these songs?" continued Hans with a shocked expression.

Mr. Li spread his hands and said, "Okay, I've heard it, it seems that I have a bad memory." ”

Hans touched his head and laughed, "Don't be sad, kid, the town of Carpenter is also very famous, maybe you've heard the name of this town." ”

"Get out!"

The town of Carpenter is indeed famous, one is that the Carpenter siblings used to live here, and "Please Wait a Minute, Mr. Postman" is said to have been created here.

Later, the Carpenter siblings left the town, and the town simply named after them, and there is even a Carpenter Museum inside.

In addition, the town of Carpenter is known for its scenery and environment, with a mineral spa resort and spa that is said to be one of the oldest spa resorts in the United States.

Li Du was not interested in these so-called 'most, one', he found out that American towns are very good at hyping themselves, and almost every town has a bit of a gimmick.

But Hans strongly recommends that he go to the spa to rest: "You always have a tired look that shows that you are under a lot of mental and physical pressure, and we have to go to the spa." ”

Seeing that he was so enthusiastic, Li Du said suspiciously: "Is there any abnormal transaction in it?"

Hans was stunned and said, "What abnormal trading?"

"Like, what girl is bathing naked?"

"Schitt, what do you think of Boss Fu?" Hans said angrily, "I just want you to have a good rest!"

Li Duhaha laughed: "Okay, I'll admit your love, I'm joking." ”

Hans snorted, "Go to the spa, you're in for a treat." ”

"Of course, I please, but we'll have to go to the community first!"

The town's oasis is flat, with rows of palm trees standing on the roadside, and gardens at the entrance of the community are full of vibrant flowers.

Two rivers cross the town, and some waterfowl and ducks swim down the calm river, and from time to time children appear on small rafts and play in the river with their dogs.

The truck stopped next to a cold drink shop at the intersection, Li Du asked for a glass of cold orange juice, and Hans and Godzilla were drinking cold beer, because the truck was going to stop, so there would be no worries about drunk driving.

Lying on the guardrail of the small bridge by the river, watching the scene of children and dogs frolicking in the water in the distance, he smiled and said, "The scenery here is so good." ”

After all, it was a town, and the business of cold drink shops was average, and the owner chatted with them with a toothpick in his mouth.

Hearing Li Du's praise, the boss said proudly: "Of course, the Carpenter brothers and sisters were attracted by our scenery back then, and the resort area that was built immediately was also because of the scenery here." ”

Hans handed the boss a cigarette and said, "Isn't there going to be a resort here?"

The boss took his cigarette and nodded: "The Cumulonimbus community in the back is going to be demolished, it is the oldest community in the town." ”

The two smoked cigarettes and chatted, and Hans gradually led the conversation to the residents of the community, asking who was rich, who liked to collect things, and who was generous.

Li Du knew that he was checking the news of the community, so he listened quietly.

Cigarettes and alcohol are the two most suitable things in the world for relationships, and Li Du saw for the first time after coming to the United States a way to communicate feelings by handing cigarettes, which is very common in China, but rare in the United States.

But it was a success, and the boss smoked Hans's cigarette and got into a big conversation with him.

After chatting for more than half an hour, Hans waved goodbye to the boss, and then the three of them walked into the community.

Li Du was carrying a bag, and Hans asked, "What's in it?" It's crazy to be carrying a bag on such a hot day. ”

Mr. Li smiled slightly: "You'll know later, it's a good thing inside." ”

The houses in the community are quaint and old-fashioned.

The boss is right, this is the oldest community in the town, many houses have become dilapidated houses, no wonder the real estate company can successfully buy the community.

Li Du asked, "Will the whole community have an auction of old houses?"

Hans nodded, "Yes." ”

There are about 40 houses in the whole community, and this is a small community, and most of the houses in the American townships are detached, and they look like small cottages.

Therefore, although there are many houses in the community, there are not many residents.

In this way, Li Du felt a little difficult, the area of forty houses was large enough, and they were not close to each other, and it would be very exhausting to use small flying insects to search for the whole process.

Fortunately, he was prepared, and while putting down his bag, he asked, "Did you find any useful information just now?"

Hans said: "Well, I got information about a few rooms, but I couldn't get in, so it was of little use. ”

Li Du smiled mysteriously: "Who said that?"
