Chapter 38 Invitation from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce
The next day, Zhou Yu went to visit Jim at the Santa Maria City Hospital. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Jim was shot twice, and although he was not critical and did not worry about his life, it was a huge burden on his body. Jim, who was still recuperating in the hospital bed, looked much paler than before.
Maybe it's because I haven't been in the sun for a long time, but more often than not, it's the reduction of spirit. People have also lost some weight.
"Boss!"
When Jim saw Zhou Yu coming to see him, he quickly sat up and wanted to greet Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu waved his hand: "Lie down!" ”
"You're injured and you need to take care of yourself."
"By the way, the bonus has been obtained, right?" Zhou Yu smiled: "Although it was very difficult for me to have such a thing, I know that you are not derelict in your duties." The extra 100,000 US dollars should be regarded as nutrition expenses. ”
Jim looked grateful.
Wasn't he derelict in his duties?
In essence, there really isn't. After all, the defense of the orchard is not an important institution, and he arranges patrols in full accordance with the usual rules, without the slightest mistake.
It's just that I didn't expect such a vicious bastard to attack the orchard again.
I didn't expect that even the boss's grandfather would be taken away!
In this respect, he was derelict in his duties.
After gratitude, Jim felt a little guilty: "Boss, if it weren't for my negligence..."
Zhou Yu waved his hand to stop him: "Just do it well in the future." ”
Jim shook his head: "Although the gunshot wound is not critical, one of them is in the knee joint, after the injury is healed, I can't do strenuous exercise, I'm afraid I won't be able to work for the boss in the future." ”
Zhou Yu was slightly stunned.
He was ready to use Jim, and he was ready to baptize him and reuse him. But Zhou Yu didn't know Jim's injury in detail, and only heard Lin Quan say that Jim was not injured.
Unexpectedly, it was injured in the joint.
The previous incident made Zhou Yu ignore everything around him, and even came to see Jim for the first time - it has been half a month since the incident happened!
He was silent for a moment and said, "You were injured because of the farm. I'm not going to embarrass you. In this case, you will be the permanent security guard of the guard room at the gate of the farm. ”
Jim is just a retired junior officer, and for people like them, the best career after retirement is to be a security guard. But his current injury makes it impossible for him to do this kind of work in the future, even other jobs that require labor. What else can he do?
He doesn't know anything else to make a living!
In the final analysis, Zhou Yu is still a person with a bottom line, although he has learned to be ruthless now. But he wasn't going to let Jim down.
Whether it is to win people's hearts or have a bottom line, at least, to ensure that he can have no worries about food and clothing.
Hearing this, a tough guy like Jim couldn't help but redden: "Thank you, boss, you saved me and my family!" ”
Zhou Yu smiled: "I won't let the people who follow me suffer." You recuperate, and when your injuries are healed, you can continue to work. ”
"Hmm!" Jim nodded vigorously.
"That's right." Zhou Yu suddenly said: "This happened on the farm, and I decided to strengthen the security of the farm." But your injuries... You are retired from the army, you should have a lot of comrades-in-arms, why don't you recommend some to me? ”
When Jim heard this, he grinned, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, boss, I don't have anything else, but I have many comrades-in-arms!" ”
"That's good." Zhou Yu stood up: "You contact them first, and if you contact them, just let them report directly to the farm." ”
...
After seeing Jim, when he returned from Santa Maria, Tina was entertaining a stranger at home.
It is a fresh-faced Asian, not tall, close to 1.7 meters, in his thirties, slightly chubby, wearing a formal suit, smiling, and looking very kind.
"Hello, hello, you must be Boss Zhou, right? Contemptible Chen Yuntao, an officer of the Chinese American Chamber of Commerce in California. ”
Before Zhou Yu entered the door, this person named Chen Yuntao hurriedly got up from the sofa, took three steps and made two feet, and stretched out his hands when he stepped forward.
Zhou Yuzheng guessed, this listen, about to understand, so he shook hands with Chen Yuntao, sat down, and said: "Hello Mr. Chen, I don't know if Mr. Chen is coming over today?" ”
Chen Yuntao laughed and said, "Mr. Zhou's name is like thunder. The contemptible people have been friends with God for a long time, and they are on the same side. The jade seal brand fruit is so popular that people from all walks of life in the United States are vying to buy it, which is amazing. Mr. Zhou has earned a lot of face for us Chinese, and it is really a great honor! ”
"It's serious, it's serious." Zhou Yu smiled.
This man is just complimenting, and he may not be able to ask any questions later.
"There are two things about the contemptible people visiting Mr. Zhou this time." Chen Yuntao was not verbose, and as soon as the two sentences passed, he got down to business: "First, I was entrusted by the president of the Chinese American Chamber of Commerce in California to sincerely invite Mr. Zhou to join the Chinese American Chamber of Commerce. ”
Zhou Yu kept smiling on his face, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen has been promoted." I just came to the United States, and I don't know what kind of organization the California Chinese American Chamber of Commerce is. ”
Chen Yuntao smiled knowing that "you would ask that": "The Chinese Chamber of Commerce is just a loose business group, which aims to unite all Chinese businessmen in the United States to unite their strength and protect themselves. At the same time, we Chinese Americans should fight for a certain amount of political power and protect themselves from discrimination. ”
After listening to Chen Yuntao's introduction, Zhou Yu bowed his head slightly and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then I am duty-bound." ”
With such a loose business group, it doesn't hurt to join, and you can expand your network, so why not?
Chen Yuntao said with a smile: "Our group needs an outstanding person like Mr. Zhou to carry the flag!" ”
praised it, and then said: "As for the other thing, I don't know if Mr. Zhou has watched a program on Fox TV some time ago?" ”
Zhou Yu was slightly stunned and said, "Some time ago, something happened to me here, and I went back to Daxia, Mr. Chen, what did you say?" ”
Chen Yuntao's face became solemn: "This program on Fox TV scandalizes and discriminates against us Chinese and our nation, which is intolerable!" The Chamber of Commerce decided to hold a protest, and this time, the first was to invite Mr. Zhou to join the Chamber of Commerce, and the second was to invite Mr. Zhou to participate in this protest party! ”
When Zhou Yu heard this, he couldn't help pursing his lips.
Although he has become an American citizen, just like the song sings, although the dress is worn on his body, a heart, but it is still the heart of Daxia!
There are indeed many bad things about Great Xia, such as Zhou Yu, who was forced to leave the United States by some people with the help of certain forces. But Great Xia, after all, is the motherland! He is a descendant of Zhuxia Miao after all.
He nodded with a straight face: "This is absolutely intolerable!" ”
"Okay." Chen Yuntao said loudly: "We Chinese, we Zhuxia and Miao descendants, absolutely cannot tolerate any discrimination. Although the strength we are here now is not strong enough, and our nation is not strong enough, we still have to make our voices heard! ”
He stood up, took out a small notebook from the briefcase next to him, handed it to Zhou Yu, and said, "This is the proof of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, hehe, go through the form." ”
Then he said: "As for the time of the protest meeting, it is set for New Year's Day night, Los Angeles." After Mr. Zhou arrived, he directly called the contemptible person. He handed Zhou Yu a business card.
Seeing Chen Yuntao away, Zhou Yu groaned silently.
Being discriminated against is nothing more than being strong enough! Whether it's itself or the nation, it's not strong enough! If the status of Zhuxia can reach the point of dominating the world and being proud of the world in ancient times, who else dares to discriminate against the descendants of Zhuxia Miao?
It's too late to kneel and lick!
How to make the nation strong, Zhou Yu can't do anything. But strong himself, he is already gradually realizing and implementing.
Tina made a cup of hot tea for Zhou Yu, brought it over, and snuggled Zhou Yu: "What do you want?" ”
Zhou Yu took the hot tea, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I'm thinking about protesting." ”
What Chen Yuntao said just now, Tina also heard it, but between Zhou Yu and Chen Yuntao, they directly communicated in Chinese, and although Tina heard it, she didn't understand it.
Zhou Yu told Tina what happened just now.
When Tina heard this, she apologized a little: "There are always some people who have a problem with their brains!" ”
Zhou Yu laughed: "It's none of your business." ”
"But," he said, staring at Tina, his eyes lit up, and he put down the teacup and picked her up, "You still have to pay for what they did!" ”
Tina's face turned red: "I'm willing to pay..."
...
Seeing that New Year's Day is coming, here in the United States, it is the New Year. This festival is not very grand, and many people don't care.
On December 30th, three retired GIs arrived at the farm.
This is a comrade-in-arms introduced by Jim.
These three people, one is called Campas, who is about the same size as Zhou Yu, and they always have a smile on their faces, but they are very standard when they walk, sit and lie down.
One is named Mueller, who is black, nearly two meters tall, but relatively thin and somewhat cold.
The last one, named John, was a bald white man with tattoos on his arms and neck.
The identities of these three people, Jim called him yesterday to tell him.
Of the three, the most powerful is not the tallest black man, nor John, who is covered in tattoos, but Campas. Kampas is a retired special soldier of the Rangers!
The U.S. Army Rangers have a long history, dating back to the 17th century when Europe colonized North America. The Ranger is somewhat similar to the scouts of the ancient Chinese army, or rather, to the scouts of the present Great Xia. Although it is slightly inferior to the Navy SEALs and Delta Force, it is also very rare.
can recruit a special soldier who has retired from the rangers, Zhou Yu is already very satisfied.
Among the three, the real comrades-in-arms of Jim are the black Mueller and the bald John. As for Kampas, it was introduced by a friend they knew.
Campas had just retired and it was time to look for a job.
The three stood in front of Zhou Yu, spontaneously, with Campas standing in the middle and the other two standing on either side. From here, it can be seen that the other two people are serving Campas.
Zhou Yu nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Jim is injured and can't take on the heavy responsibility, and I want to improve the security level of my farm, so I asked Jim to recommend his comrades." ”
He held out his hand: "Welcome." ”
