Chapter 104: Desolate Gorgeous

The young Zhang Zhongjian has always been very proud of his life experience, not to mention his noble family background, even he himself is excellent academically, IELTS and TOEFL are not a problem, and he was admitted to the University of Chicago after graduating from high school. This is a hard-fought test, but it's not a money paving!

It's just that even if there are a thousand good things in the United States, there is also one bad thing, and that is the difference in aesthetics and customs between things and things.

Even if their parents are more open-minded and want to hold their grandson, I am afraid they will not allow themselves to take a foreign woman's hand home. In fact, my parents have passed this pass, mainly because of my grandfather's pass, the old man is a literati in the old era, and his stomach is out of place, if one day he suddenly finds that his great-grandson is blue-eyed, he must discount his great-grandson's father's legs!

But it's nothing, anyway, he himself doesn't like Western women with a bold style, although he speaks English well, but Zhang Zhongjian is actually a restrained and conservative person in his bones.

What's more, there are many Chinese girls studying in the United States, two days ago when he participated in the Chinese Student Association, he met a female student studying in New York, who is handsome and beautiful, but has a very cheerful personality, Zhang Zhongjian likes it very much. After the sorority, I asked privately, and after learning that she was single, I immediately launched an offensive.

After a whole winter vacation, Zhang Zhongjian neither returned to China for the Spring Festival, nor did he return to Chicago, so he stayed in New York to solve his life events.

It's the weekend, and Chicago is the most prosperous and beautiful on the weekend, so Zhang Zhongjian called his girlfriend from New York. Said to take her shopping to TheMagnificentMile, her birthday is coming.

Zhao Ziqi heard that her boyfriend was going to take her to a very prosperous commercial street to buy a birthday gift. I was so excited that I barely slept all night, and the next morning I came to Chicago with the plane ticket that my boyfriend bought for him. After a hearty lunch, Zhang Zhongjian took her to this shopping paradise known as "Magnificent Street".

But as soon as they arrived at the corner of The MagnificentMile, they were dumbfounded......

It is said that there are indeed a lot of weekend people in Chicago, which can be called weaving, and the early spring sunshine is also very gentle...... The problem is, none of the shops are open!

The John Hancock Center's mega shopping mall is closed, Buccellati's jewelry store is closed, and even the bubble tea shops and roadside coachmen are out of business! Their stores were still as beautiful as ever, but at the moment they were all shut. The silence became a gorgeous ornament.

The "Magnificent Mile" became the desolate "Magnificent Mile".

Zhao Ziqi glanced at her boyfriend suspiciously, thinking that this kid should be reluctant to spend money for himself, so he deliberately found a family to bring himself here on a holiday and closed business, right? People want to be fat when they hit their swollen faces, but I didn't expect you to even want your face to be swollen like a fat man......

As soon as she thought of this, Zhao Ziqi looked at Zhang Zhongjian's eyes with some disdain, and the hand that she had originally held with her boyfriend was withdrawn silently, thinking that she couldn't have such a stingy and dishonest boyfriend.

Zhang Zhongjian naturally noticed the changes in the girls around him, but he was suffering and difficult to argue at the moment. Because all this in front of him is beyond his imagination and cognition. Could it be that Chicagoans have had a tradition of boycotting public office since ancient times? Seeing that "May Day" Labor Day is coming again, take a strike to celebrate?

Isn't that?!

Zhang Zhongjian roared in his heart.

He ran to the door of the bubble tea shop and looked inside, only to find that there was still a person sitting inside! It looked like his home was in the store, and Zhang Zhongjian hurriedly reached out and patted the glass on the door. After attracting the shopkeeper's attention, he motioned for him to open the door, but the shopkeeper shook his head slowly...... Zhang Zhongjian had no choice but to take out a $100 bill from his wallet. Waving to signal to the shopkeeper. But this one has Benjamin. The bill on Franklin's head still didn't touch the shopkeeper's heart, and he still shook his head slowly......

Zhang Zhongjian was so eager to crash headlong on the glass door of the bubble tea shop......

In fact, the person who is panicking on TheMagnificentMile at the moment is not only Zhang Zhongjian! All the people on this street don't know what's going on. Walking back and forth, the crowd divided into small groups. They exchanged news from one to another, hoping to figure out what was going on.

They are all local citizens of Chicago, and they care deeply about the development of the city, and now that such a thing is happening for no reason, and there is not the slightest hint of wind beforehand, how can this make them calm and normal? In fact, if the citizens of Shudu and the citizens of Beijing woke up and suddenly found that Chunxi Road and Wangfujing Street were closed, the panic in their hearts would definitely not be much better than that of Chicago citizens.

In fact, it's not just the locals of Chicago who feel bad? The mood of the tour guides of those foreign tour groups is definitely not much better! The main income of these tour guides depends on the tourists who follow the group to buy things and pump water, but as a result, the shops that sell things are closed, where does he get the oil and water to drink? Their livelihoods are almost gone, and they are already considered to have excellent personal and professional qualities without slamming the door on the street......

Tourists don't care, looking around is a rarity. Especially some tourists from China are even more surprised. Such extreme things as boycotting the public and the market have been rare in China in recent years, and even if there is a news, there is not much to say. I didn't expect them to come to a capitalist country now to see such a thing, and the money was well spent! After I go back, I have the capital to brag to my relatives and friends. What about your visits to the White House? The White House is there all year round, and you can go whenever you want, but something like this is hard to come by!

Thinking that this matter could be used as a topic of conversation after their banquet and become the center of everyone's listening in the future, I felt a burst of joy in my heart......

……

……

"Check, check it for me!"

Chicago Mayor Jerome banged the table in the city hall and was furious, and the general election was about to be held, and Jerome has done a good job in the past few years, and he is still very promising. didn't expect such a thing to happen at this juncture, isn't this a demolition?

Jerome was furious.

"What the hell are those damn merchants going to do?" Jerome roared, the green veins on his neck jumping suddenly, "Is it because we have too much tax?" Or do you feel that our policies are not good enough? Who is in charge? Bring their leaders to me! ”

"Mr. Mayor, I don't think it's a big problem with the tax issue, because it has been collected like this for the past two years, and I haven't seen anyone object." "Needless to say, the policy has been tilted in favor of them in the past two years to help them resist the financial crisis, and it should not be the reason for this." ”

"Why is that? There has to be a reason! Jerome irritably ripped off the tie from his collar, and then took a sip of the coffee brought by the secretary, and a hoarse roar just now exhausted his throat.

"Reason? Only God knows. The Director of the Finance Bureau shrugged, "There is not even the slightest warning of this, and if it weren't for the fact that the impact and scale are so great, I would almost have thought that this was their 'five. One's Labor Day is a special celebration ceremony. ”

Jerome didn't bother to pay attention to his nonsense, drinking his coffee and thinking about a coping plan. This matter must be resolved, otherwise his career will be worrying, he is only in his forties, and he doesn't want to retire so early!

"Did they ask for anything?" Jerome put down his coffee cup and asked, "Generally speaking, this kind of thing happens because these people have some strong demand to force the government to compromise through this kind of almost "coercion", such as those Chicago workers more than 100 years ago, their demand is "eight-hour workday." ”

"There are no requirements." "Because they didn't send people to negotiate with the government." ”

"That's weird......" Jerome rubbed his chin.

"Mr. Mayor, I have an idea that I don't know if it's right." The female secretary, who had just brought coffee and had not had time to walk out, suddenly spoke timidly.

"Do you have an idea? Say! "The drowning Mayor Jerome is not willing to let go of a single straw that floats in front of his eyes.

"You say...... Could it be because of Morgan's problem? The female secretary said cautiously, "After all, something like this happened as soon as they took over TheMagnificentMile, they shouldn't be too innocent......

Certainly not innocent!

Jerome and his director of the finance bureau glanced at each other, and found that the possibility that the female secretary said was really not ordinarily high! Sure enough, a wise man will have a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and a fool will also have a thousand thoughts. Jerome said to the female secretary, "Your winnings have doubled this month, no, tripled!" ”

The female secretary immediately covered her chest and looked happy and incredulous.

Jerome turned his head and said, "Call, inform Morgan, and tell them that the government is no longer in a good position to deal with this situation, and that they will take care of their own business." You have to bear the trouble you have caused! Fuck! Don't make trouble for Lao Tzu...... Well...... Forget the last sentence, tell them the previous words, and let them solve it quickly! The election is about to begin, and the government cannot bear the blame! (To be continued......)
