At 8 o'clock in the morning on August 19, 1976, after everyone had breakfast, I, Qiao Yan, Yibang and Shulan were in the living room discussing the two of them going to study.

I said, "Yibang! Shulan! You're about to go out to study and learn your skills! Therefore, I'm going to leave your bank account to you to manage! In the past few years, there has been a lot of interest on the deposit in your account! At the same time, at the beginning of this year, I gave each of you a 20-year fixed deposit of $50 billion, and in the future, the interest generated here will be used for entrepreneurial investment and starting your own business! ”

Yibang said, "Brother! You should use the money to develop the company's business! We don't need so much money to study and live overseas! ”

I said, "Yibang! Shulan! There is still money at home, you don't have to worry about this! As long as you can keep money and manage your money, and make good use of every penny, it will be the same wherever you put your money! Now that you have grown up, you need to live independently and prepare yourself for the future! We must start learning how to manage money, use money and run our own business, otherwise, no matter how much money we have, it makes no difference if we are poor! Do you understand? ”

Shulan smiled and said, "Brother! You can rest assured! We'll make good use of every penny! When we graduate, we will go home to help you do things and help you share your worries! ”

Then, I told them everything about their bank passbook and password, as well as how to operate the account.

After that, Qiao Yan and I drove Yibang and Shulan out on errands.

At the bank counter, we remitted $50 billion to the personal accounts of Yibang and Shulan, and helped them apply for a 20-year fixed interest rate of 11.5% per year, so their interest income is very good.

After handling the bank's affairs, the four of us brought the bank credit certificates, Hong Kong City ID cards, passports and academic certificates of Yibang and Shulan, and the American Education Exchange Association (AEEA) to handle the admission application of Yibang and Shulan.

After arriving at the AEEA Port City office, we will check the bank credit certificates, Hong Kong City ID cards, passports and academic certificates of Yibang and Shulan to the audit officers at the processing window.

After checking their documents, they asked Yibang and Shulan a brief question, and then asked them to fill out the application form, take photos, take fingerprints, and collect blood samples.

Soon, they applied for a degree, as well as an Admission Letter!

Yibang applied for an undergraduate degree in law and finance and computer science and communication from the University of California, Berkeley.

She applied for undergraduate degrees in Economics and Business Administration, as well as Biology and Medicine.

After completing the work at AEEA, we applied for the student visas of Yibang and Shulan at the Consulate of Meibang.

After applying for a student visa, the four of us drove back home.

At noon, when we returned home, Li's mother had already made lunch with us.

After lunch, everyone drank tea and chatted together in the living room at home.

Li Ma smiled and said, "Alas! Yibang and Shulan are amazing! You'll come back from graduation in a few years, and you'll all be scientists! ”

Shulan smiled and said, "Mother Li! You like to praise us! That's that easy! We had to listen to a lot of lectures, read a lot of books, do a lot of experiments, and discuss a lot of problems with professors and mentors. Reading books and doing research is very hard! However, we are not afraid! ”

Everyone laughed!

Yibang said, "Brother! Sister-in-law! Our enrollment procedures have been completed! When are we going to Berkeley? ”

Qiao Yan smiled and said, "Alas! In the past few days, Lone Dragon and I will send you there! We also want to go to that place to have fun! ”

Shulan smiled and said, "Okay! Once we've signed up, we're going to spend a few days in San Francisco with you! ”

I said, "Yes!" Well, tomorrow we prepare! Let's go the day after tomorrow! Yibang, Shulan! You're on your own! Know how to protect yourselves! You've mastered the basic skills to protect your own life! But protecting your mind from lies and falsehoods is just the beginning for you! One of the purposes of learning and thinking is to pursue the truth and reveal the truth of things! The truth is like the sun, the wind, and the starry sky, and people who feel normal know that they exist! The truth is that water, mountains, and animals and plants can be experienced by everyone! However, simple truths are often covered up by ill-intentioned people, with lies and fallacies, and the truth is often covered up by false images designed by bad people! Therefore, you must maintain an innocent, brave and kind heart, believe in inevitability, cause and effect, balance, and believe that the extremes of things must be reversed! Don't be misled by lies and fallacies, lose your own freedom, and go astray! Thought and science are a double-edged sword, whoever uses them, they serve whom! Do you understand? ”

Yibang said, "Brother! You can rest assured, we have learned skills in Guangzhou Special School in the past few years, and there is no problem in protecting ourselves! You told us, who are our enemies? Who are our friends? This issue is the primary issue of our survival and development! There are people in this world who are bending history, covering up the truth, and some people are making up pseudoscience! Someone is plotting to control the world, as well as to exterminate human civilization and the world! We already know these things! We will silently do our own knowledge and scientific research! After graduating and returning home, we only do things for our family and nation! If these bad guys dare to attack us, we will destroy them in the same way! Just as you exterminated our enemies, you will not show mercy! ”

......

At 8 o'clock in the morning on August 20th, after we prepared the luggage and documents for Yibang and Shulan to go to Berkeley to study, Song Xiaobing and Zhao Gongde sent me, Qiao Yan, Yibang and Shulan to Gangcheng Airport.

At 10 a.m., the four of us were at Harbour City International Airport, loaded with our luggage and belongings on our flight to San Francisco.

......

At 10 a.m. local time on August 20, our flight landed at San Francisco International Airport.

After leaving the airport, we took the airport bus to Berkeleytown.

The bus we took passed through downtown San Francisco and crossed the San Francisco Seaway Bridge, and soon arrived at the Berkeley campus bus stop.

After getting off the bus, we were guided by the campus street signs and quickly found the student section of the university.

After we passed the admission notice, filled in the enrollment registration form, and paid the tuition, accommodation and other miscellaneous fees through the UBS accounts of Mak Yibang and Mak Shulan, Yibang and Shulan completed the enrollment procedures and obtained the student ID, student status card, accommodation card, dining card, as well as class schedules, textbooks and school uniforms.

After handling and receiving the belongings, we went to the Yibang and Shulan dormitories with our luggage and belongings.

Their dormitories are two separate bedrooms, apartment suites with two study rooms, a living room, a kitchen, a dining room, a storage room, and a balcony.

Their dormitory is on the third floor and there is no elevator, but it is very convenient to walk to the university's classrooms and laboratories.

After entering the dormitory suite, we helped Yibang and Shulan tidy up their bedroom, study, living room, bathroom and kitchen.

The facilities and electrical appliances here are fully equipped, and the water supply, electricity, and communications have been opened, so you only need to buy food and personal necessities to live.

After putting away our luggage and tidying up the dormitory, the four of us left the dormitory and went to the cafeteria next to the dormitory apartment building for lunch.

After grabbing food and drinks, we ate and chatted together in a secluded place.

Shulan said, "Brother! Sister-in-law! The food here is weird, and the taste is so different from home and the school in Port City! I may not be able to stand eating like this for a long time! ”

I said, "Alas! Oh, yes! That's how the food is here! Wait, let's buy a car, and then we'll go to San Francisco's Chinatown to buy some Chinese ingredients and come back! This way, when you have free time, you can cook your own hometown meals in the kitchen of the dormitory! ”

Yibang said, "Okay! When I entered the town of Burlik, I observed that there were a few car dealers selling vehicles near our university! Let's get there! I see that everyone here has guns, should we buy some guns and ammunition too? ”

I said, "Okay! Wait, let's make a purchase list! Try to buy all the things you want to use at once! Also, we find places to buy the necessities of life! In this way, it will be convenient for you to buy things in the future! ”

Shulan smiled and said, "Brother! I'm going to buy some of the trendy clothes here! The style of clothes in Port City seems to be different from here! We can't make people here feel like we're too different! ”

Qiao Yan smiled and said, "Okay! I also buy a few sets of clothes and cosmetics etc here! I feel like the people here are better dressed and dressed up than the people in Port City! ”

Everyone laughed!

After lunch, we made a shopping list in the restaurant.

Then, we took a taxi to the car shop near the university.

When we arrived at the vehicle, we bought a brand new business car, and applied for the local driver's license for the four of us, and the driving license and fuel card of the vehicle, etc., all of which were paid for by Yibang.

After purchasing the vehicle, we purchase a traffic map.

Then, drive to San Francisco's Chinatown to buy something.

At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, we arrived in Chinatown, where we bought cooking utensils and tableware such as Chinese cooking pots and rice cookers, as well as a lot of ingredients and condiments.

We went to the gun shop there to buy ***, automatic rifles and ammunition for Yibang and Shulan, and bought gun maintenance products and protective equipment.

We also buy some proprietary Chinese medicines that are commonly used by Chinese people, as well as commonly used Western medicines.

After leaving Chinatown, we went to a modern shopping mall to buy daily necessities, office and school supplies such as typewriters and telephones, as well as clothing and other things.

After all this was done, we drove back to Burik.

At 6 p.m., we returned to the parking lot below the dormitory apartment building at the Berlick campus.

After we parked our vehicles, we moved all the purchased items back to the dormitory.

After moving things, Qiao Yan and Shulan tried on their new clothes in the room.

Yibang and I were cooking dinner in the kitchen.

Yibang smiled and said, "Alas! We've always made our home here! A few years ago, we set up our homes in Yangcheng and Gangcheng! Now, it's here again! ”

I said, "Yes! Since our grandfather's generation, our family has been wandering all over the world! Actually, that's fine, it's all our home! ”

Yibang said: "Alas! However, our roots are still in our hometown in the mainland! I always feel like we're uprooted! ”

I said, "Yes! Get used to it! It's a great place to be able to adapt! This is a country of self-government, personal defense is their own responsibility, and the police are only responsible for post-processing, as well as case detection and prosecution! Therefore, you must adapt to the security environment here as soon as possible! At night, don't go out! And don't go to chaotic and dangerous areas! ”

Yibang said, "Okay! I read it, and the school gave us information about public security! When the time comes, Shulan and I will study hard! ”

At 8 o'clock in the evening, we prepared a table of hometown food, and then, the four of us chatted while eating.

Shulan smiled and said, "Oops! The food cooked by the two brothers is so delicious! In the future, we will cook and eat our own food in our leisure time and holidays! I don't want to eat all those chunks of meat and weird soups! ”

Qiao Yan smiled and said, "Shulan! You're going to have to do a little more chores too! You can't let Yibang do it alone! You know? ”

Shulan smiled and said, "I know! I'm diligent! In the past, I used to cook at Yama's house! However, after arriving in Hong Kong City, everyone thought that my stir-fry was not delicious, so they didn't let me do housework! ”

Yibang smiled and said, "Alas! Shulan! You're so frugal in everything you do! Stir-fry is reluctant to put oil, in order to save gas, the dish is not cooked, you turn off the heat and start the pot! In this way, can the food be delicious?! ”

Everyone laughed!

After eating and tidying up the dishes and chopsticks, we drank tea and chatted in the living room.

Yibang said, "Brother! Sister-in-law! Stay here with us tonight! ”

I said, "Okay! I share a bedroom with Yibang and Qiao Yan and Shulan! Tomorrow morning, we'll go with you to familiarize yourself with the campus and help you find a place to go to class, eat, and do groceries, and then we'll take the school bus to the San Francisco airport! Next time, let's come here and travel with you around here! ”

Shulan said, "Alas! Brother! Sister-in-law! I don't want to leave you anymore! ”

Qiao Yan smiled and said, "Alas! Shulan! So, study hard! Shouldn't you be able to go home as soon as possible?! ”

Shulan said, "Sister-in-law! Then, we are just playing with our lives, and in a few years, we will definitely be able to go home! ”

I said, "Shulan! You must be calm in everything, and you must not be impatient! Remember, when you have the skills, you can do what you want to do, and your life and work will become meaningful! Bear with me, and in a few years, you will be able to gallop this world! That's when you feel truly free and happy! ”

......

All morning of August 21, the four of us went together to visit the entire university campus.

I found places where Yibang and Sooklan had classes, experiments, and daily meals, as well as the school library, hospitals, banks, restaurants, shopping malls, shopping streets, and other places.

At 12 noon, the four of us had lunch at the cafeteria near the Yibang and Shulan apartment buildings.

After lunch, Qiao Yan and I took our luggage and belongings to the bus stop on the university campus, and Yibang and Shulan saw us off.

Qiao Yan said, "Shulan! In the future, you have to listen to Brother Yibang! Don't be homesick all the time! You know? ”

Shulan said with tears in her eyes: "Sister-in-law! I know! In the future, I will definitely learn to be stronger! Put your mind to your studies and research! ”

After arriving at the bus stop, the four of us hugged goodbye, and Qiao Yan and I went to the airport bus with our luggage and belongings.

Solan and Yibang stood next to the bus, watching us cry like children!

When the bus started, they couldn't help but run after the bus, shouting our names!

.......

At the airport, we took the flight back to Port City at 4pm!
