Chapter 173 Incorporates

Yachts are expensive, and owning a yacht is a big investment. And there are a lot of costs associated with maintaining a yacht and mooring a yacht. A yacht is a big object, you can't carry it in your pocket and fly around the world, so most people who own a yacht occasionally want to go on vacation to a distant place they love, and they don't necessarily get to drive the yacht near that area.

As a result, there is a yacht rental industry, where boat owners who join yacht associations will entrust their yachts to specialized management agencies, usually rent out their yachts, and solicit a few vacation guests to earn some spare money to compensate for expensive maintenance and berthing fees.

And chartering a yacht for a vacation is a... Depending on the owner's choice of vacation area, there are not many places for the tenant to choose from. This is mainly due to the fact that yachts travel on the sea, which is both slow and has many navigation restrictions. You have chosen a yacht and want to spend a holiday in Greek waters, but it is possible that the yacht has sailed to Turkish waters, and it will take a long time to sail back to Greek waters to pick up guests, and tourists with limited time may not be able to afford to wait.

Therefore, guests who choose to spend their holidays by yacht should select the local yacht that is being rented in the selected area in advance. Then the parties can only agree on a roughly confluence sea area, and the guests who charter the yacht begin to set off towards this area, and the yacht ...... During this time, it is possible that the boat carried the previous tenant to any part of the sea. When it's time to meet, whether the yacht can be rushed back depends on the personal preferences of the previous renter.

Normally, the tenant will agree with the owner of the boat to identify a signal, after the aircraft arrives in the sea area, it needs to search the nearby sea area for a while, and wait for the yacht to receive the identification new number and send its own positioning information, so that the tenant can find the yacht he has booked.

In the middle of the night, the crooked last quarter moon hangs in the sky, bringing together seven yachts, large and medium, in the sparkling waters of the southern side of Cyprus. Three seaplanes carried the doctors to the surface one after another, and through the public radio channels of both sides, the yachts and the tenants identified each other, and one by one the different yachts leaned towards the different seaplanes, and under the night lights of the planes, their guests were picked up in the cabins......

An Feng chartered a yacht that belonged to a wealthy Syrian businessman, and the yacht was decorated in a Saladin style. This wealthy businessman is also like An Feng, he has a yacht but usually does not use it, and hands it over to a special yacht management company for rent, and when the rich businessman wants to go on vacation, the yacht will stop renting and accept the rich businessman on board.

This small yacht is usually piloted by a captain, and if the charterer has the appropriate driving certificate, the captain will also hand over the yacht to the tenant, but if the tourist is troublesome, the captain can continue to control the yacht. However, in this case, the fee paid by the tenant must include the captain's salary.

An Feng, who owns his own yacht, of course, has a captain's certificate, but he is too troublesome, so he simply rents the captain and the captain's wife together, lets them drive the yacht, and he is lazy and stunned - since he called Dr. Tom, An Feng has been like this, lazy and doesn't think about anything.

At dawn, the yacht turns its bow to head into the wind, ready to meet its next passenger. At the same time, on the glittering golden sea, seven yachts tried to distance themselves, and they were all waiting for their next guest.

Of course, family doctors have to take their families on vacation, but among these people who come on vacation, there are still a few medical assistants, most of whom are unmarried, so the vacation partners they invite have both their own girlfriends and special "travel companions" - most of them are professional escort women.

Seaplanes roared down in the nearby sea. It's always the pretty girls who get off the plane. When the plane carrying Zhang Shuting landed, the nearby yacht had disappeared on the horizon with its own traveling companions, so that there was only one boat and a lazy man left in this sea area.

Zhang Shuting only carried a small bag with a few swimsuits, and then happily climbed up to the yacht building through the backside. When she arrived, An Feng was enjoying a Cypriot-style breakfast.

Zhang Shuting was not polite, pulled out the stool and sat on the dining table, she looked at the food on the table, some of the food was very familiar, some of the food was relatively unfamiliar, glanced at An Feng's teacup, she asked in surprise: "Grinding iron coffee?" What is this? Fried eggs, ahhhh......hhh Twenty dishes for one meal, although the plate is a little smaller, but extravagant, too extravagant, I like it

Well, excuse me, are there soy milk fritters, I'm bored with American breakfast. ”

In the latter sentence, Zhang Shuting is purely a spoof.

An Feng took a sip of coffee, and replied lazily without raising his head: "Oh, twenty dishes in one meal, this is the characteristic of Cyprus." This is a Cypriot meal, which reflects the abundance of their produce.

Legend has it that the rice originated in Cyprus. Legend has it that coffee was first discovered by Arab shepherds. Legend has it that the shepherds of the Arabian Peninsula crossed the sea to herd sheep on the Ethiopian plateau in Africa, and stumbled upon the sheep who were particularly excited after eating a certain kind of black beans, so they picked some black beans, treated them with special techniques, and drank them as a drink - coffee was born, which, along with Chinese tea, is one of the two largest plant drinks in the world.

The earliest coffee drink to appear was mocha coffee, which was translated as grinding iron ...... in China"

Zhang Shuting sighed, and immediately asked again: "No, no, doesn't it mean that in the Maritime Silk Road, our country exported silk, tea, and porcelain?" Isn't it said that Arabs like to drink tea? Isn't milk tea also their favorite? ”

"Ha, what do you think of the world...... I guess it's defined by the Propaganda Department. Propaganda, however, has nothing to do with the truth. Tea and coffee, as the world's two major plant beverages, are the first Chinese to complete the artificial cultivation of tea, so as to mass produce and export to the outside world. The Arabs never knew how to grow coffee, so they had to find wild coffee beans from the African highlands, pick them and process them for drinking.

It was not until later, at the beginning of the Age of Discovery, that the British and Spanish entered the American continent and discovered coffee cultivation technology from the Indians. Since then, the trade in coffee has been able to catch up with the trade in tea. Before that, Arabs drank both coffee and tea, but they loved coffee far more than tea. Because at that time, the tea bricks shipped from China were used for trade, and in the eyes of the Arabs they were commodities, mainly sold to the Europeans for money, and they only occasionally had a little tea, but the Arabic drink, undoubtedly coffee. ”

Zhang Shuting let out a long sigh: "Ahhhh ”

Zhang Shuting lay on the table in frustration, groaned, and continued: "Since I came out, I found that many things in the textbooks I used to learn were confused and upside down. I don't dare to talk casually now, because I'm afraid that if I use what I've learned to communicate with foreigners, my classmates will look at a loss...... Then, after a while, I will know that I was being taken for a fool. Their blank expressions at the time were that they thought what I was saying was absurd and funny - I became a clown in their eyes."

After that, Zhang Shuting hit her head on the weak dining table, and said depressedly: "My cousin always told me to want to, I told my cousin that I was lonely, that I was bored, and my cousin said that as long as I could, I wouldn't feel lonely, and she said a lot, and I didn't understand." Brother Kane, you are a doctor, tell me, how can I cure my homesickness? ”

"Why do you feel lonely because you have no one to accompany you? Me, or your cousin? An Feng picked up a salad with a fork and said slowly: "If it's because of this, I'm afraid none of us can help you." That's the margin, consciousness, you know? verge

What's yours is yours, and we don't have the right to cross the boundaries to make decisions for you, to decide how you live, or to decide how you make friends. After all, your own affairs have to be solved by yourself, and you must learn to make friends on your own and take care of your own life. It's marginal, we can't be with you, we don't have the right to ',...... for your good"

"But, I don't know how to make friends, I ...... I can't talk to them, I don't think the way they think is out of place with me, I can't fit in with them, I ...... I really, really miss my hometown, my classmates, my parents, and I feel like I'm suffering from severe homesickness. Alas, aren't you a doctor, a little loving. Take care of the patient. ”

"Haha, you, you feel that you can't communicate with the people around you and integrate into the society around you, so you feel lonely. Sometimes, there are a lot of things to do, but I feel like there's no point in doing them, so I get bored, right? It reminds me of something, well, I do remember something, but I'm a little hard to speak, I'm afraid you can't accept your feelings.

Homesickness is a miracle, homesickness is not pathology, it is actually a psychological suggestion, a sense of alienation, a feeling of rejection, you feel that you are out of place with the society around you, you can't talk to the people around you, you can't play together, so you are lonely, bored, and homesick...... I suddenly remembered the migrant workers in China, do you know their living conditions? ”

Zhang Shuting nodded, and An Feng then asked: "So, do you know the "Chinese Exclusion Act" many years ago

Without waiting for Zhang Shuting to answer, An Feng continued: "I once told you that a certain step of brainwashing is to guide others to judge things right and wrong with feelings, think about whether to accept new ideas with feelings, refuse to use reason, refuse to use IQ to listen calmly, and judge right and wrong." What I'm going to say next needs to be understood with IQ and reason, so you put your emotions aside, use your IQ, and listen:

The Chinese Exclusion Act is a discriminatory policy, but why does it discriminate against Chinese only...... Leave aside the hateful theories you learned in your domestic textbooks. The truth is that at that time, the law was testified in Congress, and it was up to the lawmakers to vote on whether or not to enforce it. A member of Congress testified that the Chinese came to this country, they were not interested in the laws of the United States, they were not interested in the communities of the United States. They gather themselves into small groups, they don't communicate with the outside world at all, they don't call for help from the American police when they are in trouble, but go to their own foremen, or their own 'fellow countrymen', who have no confidence in the laws of the United States, and they don't care at all.

They don't even have funerals in the United States, they even have to pack up the bodies and ship them back home, they say it's 'a kind of homesickness......

Such a group of people, they don't want to fit into this country, they just come here to earn money, they just want to draw blood from our city from our country, and they have drawn enough blood to go home and enjoy themselves. Therefore, when they work, they never care about their own community, have no interest in community activities, even if the community is for their benefit, they only enjoy the results, and never care about the efforts of others.

The congressman also pointed out that this state of existence is a danger to the United States. And we can't expect people to always have mercy and mercy on them. In elections, for example, this group of people never cares about what policies the elected people want to implement, whether the policies are beneficial or harmful to them. As long as their foreman took a bottle of wine and invited them to drink, they could vote for the foreman, or whoever the foreman designated—a practice that was devastating to the American electoral system.

It is said that the senator also acknowledged the hardships and hard work of the Chinese, and he believed that the Chinese were very industrious, paid the lowest wage, and never knew how to rest or go on vacation -- they actually thought that human vacations were a luxury.

When other countries immigrate to the United States, they all like to immigrate with their families, go to work on their own, and the children have to spend locally, receive local education, and interact with the locals, except for the Chinese community, where there are almost no women, no old people and children, they are all strong and hard-working people.

So the same workers, Irish workers, Italians, Poles, came to the United States with their families, their salaries to support their families, their local houses, their children's education. If this salary does not meet their requirements to support their families, they will find other jobs.

The Chinese, on the other hand, are different, because they have no family burden, no entertainment, so they can accept ridiculously low wages, live in disgusting conditions, and think that they come out to earn money from the city, to pump the blood of the city and go home to enjoy it, and they can even work eighteen hours a day.

In the long run, there will only be two kinds of people left in the major factories in the United States, one is the white factory owner, and the other is the Chinese worker. And this phenomenon is a disaster for everyone in the United States, because the Chinese have earned enough money to return to their hometowns, and they don't even want to be buried in this land, and even the bodies have to be transported back to their hometowns. What's next for the United States? Imagine this: ordinary Americans can't find jobs, because jobs are all taken by Chinese, they have no income, they don't have consumption, they don't have taxes if they don't consume, they can't build a police system, they can't do all kinds of government actions. As a result, there is no law, no order, and no moral bottom line in this society. And, if you don't get it right, the government officials have become elected Chinese heads, or designated parliamentarians by Chinese heads...

The congressman stressed that from the beginning to the end, the Chinese people were not at all interested in the society, laws, customs, and culture of this country, and they even rejected the country's unique cultural customs and social civilization, and they despised any culture that did not belong to them as 'barbarians,......

Finally, the congressman suggested that since the Chinese people reject this society and this civilization, then this society should reject them......

Well, having said all that, it may be difficult for you to imagine the living conditions of Chinese workers at that time. You may accuse them of resenting them, believing that their actions have led to the exclusion and discrimination of the Chinese. But if you think about it now, what is the difference between the living conditions of migrant workers in major cities in China and the Chinese who cross the sea to make a living? They also don't care about the city they are in, they just want to earn money and go home, and even steal money to go home. So, as a local in the city, how do you feel about this group of migrant workers? ”

Zhang Shuting raised her little face, as if crying and laughing for a long time, An Feng didn't speak, and quietly waited for the little girl to figure it out by herself.

"This, this, emotionally, this statement makes me feel bad, but ...... I can't tell you how it feels. I feel embarrassed. ”

"But this is what you call [nostalgia], that you think that you come out to live to earn money, and you can't waste your time on entertainment and pastimes, and when you have earned enough money, you need to go back to your hometown to enjoy, and you have to put on a feast in your hometown, to show your success and wealth, and by the way enjoy all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred of the people in your hometown.

Oh, what kind of thinking inducement do you think this is - you go out to earn money by yourself, don't eat, drink or have fun, and when you go home, you spend the money on the people back home, so that they can eat, drink and play well, that's 'productiveness,' If you don't pluck a dime from your fellow villagers after returning to your hometown and spend the money you earn on yourself, you will feel shameless and ashamed? ”

"I ...... I feel like you've bloodily torn open the truth and made my heart ...... Extremely painful. ”

"I'm not asking you to evaluate your feelings, I'm asking you to think about the right and wrong of this behavior, or think about what you should do," An Feng continued, "After the 60s of the last century, the Chinese thought that they should wake up, and the slogan they put forward was to integrate into the United States and society. They declared: If you want to be a Chinese who is not discriminated against, and if you want to be a happy and respected Chinese, you must have an active sense of participation.

Yes, engage. Even if you come to the United States just to be a passerby, you must know that the laws of this country are closely related to your life, you have the right to testify against it, you have the right to choose your own rights and interests to represent your interests, and you have the right to walk in the sunshine of this country without discrimination or exclusion.

Remember, you have the right to this, and this is a basic state of human existence. Specifically: what activities are in the community, you have the right to participate in and have the right to dictate the activities. You don't want to be a bystander, you can't be a 'migrant worker', but you actively join in with a sense of participation. That's integration, and you have to treat this society as your own.

Your society, your community, is all around you, what do you still miss home? This is your hometown, and you have to adjust your mentality, and interact with other people on an equal footing with the mentality of the same township, the same community, and the same school. Remember, you have the right. This is your society. If there is anything here that makes you feel discriminated against, excluded, offended, you have the right to speak out and demand compensation for your moral damage - even if you say the wrong thing in your dealings with others, they can correct you, but they have no right to discriminate against you.

Here, even if it is a wrong idea, you have the right to speak out loud, why don't you dare to open your mouth? What are you afraid of? ”
