Chapter 164: Keep pretending
Chapter Subheading: The ...... on the Hudson River
Saturday morning, November 20, 1920. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info (To explain, the author has obsessive-compulsive disorder, especially about numbers and time.) )
Of course, there are no weekends these days, and our Master Yuan is also idle, so he came to New York University to take classes.
"Hello, Neo!"
"Mr. Yuan, how do you feel?"
"Neo, your novel is so well written."
"Mr. Yuan, can you sign for me?"
"Neo, your "A Few Questions About Wilhelm II" really went to my heart."
"Mr. Yuan, can I discuss with you "Is Britain a Liberal Country?" The arguments in it? ”
……
He is also a celebrity at the age of the elderly, and this appearance naturally attracted everyone's attention. To be honest, Yuan Yanqian still enjoys this feeling.
No wonder people want to be stars, in addition to sleeping with beautiful female fans, these male fans and those female fans who are not good-looking are really ...... It's so troublesome.
Fortunately, Master Yuan had a lot of ideas, he pointed to his mouth, spread his hands and shook his head at everyone with an apologetic smile.
"Neo, I'm sorry to forget you're not okay."
"Mr. Yuan, I'm really sorry I was so rude."
He easily shook off the crowd and walked into Stern College. And he saw a bunch of classmates getting together and chatting very lively.
Louis Baker beckoned when he saw him, "Neo, this way!" ”
When he walked over, he heard the rich third generation say very enthusiastically: "Neo, I'm talking about your 'Mahjong'." It's so much fun! ”
"And, when I woke up yesterday, I really felt a little bit that, that, um...... What's it called? ”
MR. JOHN MCCALL SAID, "ISN'T IT TIAN REN HE YI?"
Louis nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, it's still John's good memory." IT'S TIAN REN HE YI! ”
This guy played mahjong and made his brain stupid, right?
But of course Yuan Yanqian can't say that. WITH A SOLEMN EXPRESSION, HE HELD BACK A VERY HOARSE VOICE AND SAID, "LOUIE, YOU LOOK LIKE YOU ARE WHAT OUR CERIS PEOPLE SAY 'HUI GEN'." You must play mahjong more and improve your level as soon as possible. ”
"Hmm!"
Mr. Baker was still very convinced of his words. So he nodded heavily.
The other students looked at each other a few times and said, "That Neo, we also want to play 'Mahjong'." ”
"YES, I WANT TO EXPERIENCE THE FEELING OF 'TIAN REN HE YI' TOO."
"That's right, I think I'm also very 'HUI GEN', and the level will be improved very quickly."
Because you can't win money playing mahjong, Master Yuan, who no longer likes to play mahjong, felt a little tired when he heard these words. He said in his heart, these guys all came to my house to play mahjong, so what happened to this river-view house?
Isn't it a ......
That's right, a mahjong parlor where you can see the Hudson River, apart from yourself, which traverser can open such a mahjong parlor? It's exciting to think about!
"A must!" He nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Everyone has to come!" ”
Yuan Yanqian sighed and said, "That's it, when I ask someone to decorate, I will invite everyone to come to my house to play 'Mahjong'......"
After deciding to open this No. 1 mahjong parlor in the United States, Master Yuan took his lawyer to the corner and began to talk about business.
Of course, making money is the right thing.
"John, have you negotiated with Chinatown?"
"Neo, I went to talk to them again yesterday. Let me talk about it, and say it's your suggestion, but they just won't pay. ”
These old overseas Chinese and Hongmen disciples really deserve to be able to open restaurants and laundries, and they really deserve to stay in Chinatown for the rest of their lives, and they really deserve to watch Jews and climb on their heads, and finally they are still at the bottom of the chain of racial discrimination in the United States and imperialism a hundred years later
Yuan Yanqian, who hates iron but not steel, really feels a little "sad" in her heart, but it is just a few thousand dollars of endorsement fees. A master like himself came forward in person, and he collected a few thousand dollars...... I don't know how to seize such a good opportunity in front of me, I really don't know what they think?
Hey, who called them my blood compatriots, even if they wouldn't pay......
Lao Tzu is the one who opened the mountain hall and not the one who opened the good hall, why should I help these guys who are blind and blind without paying for it?
But I don't necessarily have to do the two businesses of Chinese medicine and Chinese medicine myself, it's too troublesome.
Yuan Yanqian, who didn't have any good ideas for the time being, said: "John, I've worked hard for you. I'll go with you next time......"
At this time, Mr. Louis Baker came over and asked, "Neo, are you free tomorrow?" ”
Tomorrow is not Sunday, November 21, and it seems that some historical event has happened.
"Free, what's the matter?"
"Oh, my grandfather wants to invite you to a light meal at the Country Club. I just don't know if you can hold it? ”
"My body...... Not to mention going to the country club for dinner, it doesn't matter if you play 18 holes with his old man! ”
The unfinished force at the Halloween masquerade ball, this time it can finally be finished!
Of course, a neoclassical master like me still has to talk and laugh with big capitalists, right?
There shouldn't be anyone bothering you this time, right?
"Alright, Neo. You're a patient and I'm an old man, nine holes are enough. It's getting dark, so let's hit it here today. ”
Our Master Yuan showed a very ashamed look and said, "I'm really sorry, it's my level that is too low." Otherwise, Mr. Baker, and Louie, you would have finished eighteen holes long ago. ”
They are now on a golf course next to a very luxurious Country Club.
The so-called country club in the United States generally refers to a golf course, but there are also special tennis and equestrian clubs, which are always places to provide aristocratic sports anyway. In addition to the sports grounds, the club also has a hotel, restaurant, spa, and even ancillary facilities, you know.
In fact, the most important function of this kind of country club is to socialize, so it will adopt a membership system, and only members of the same class will enter.
And this country club in New Jersey, which doesn't even have a name, is even more incredible, if it weren't for the invitation of Mr. Baker Sr. and the personal leadership of Mr. Baker Jr., Yuan Yanqian wouldn't even know where to open the door.
The three of them handed the clubs to the caddies and walked slowly side by side towards the club's main facility.
Mr. Baker Sr. is really physically tough, and the eighty-year-old man still looks energetic after playing nine holes.
He looked at the handsome faces of the Chinese beside him who had fully recovered and left almost no scars, and asked curiously: "Neo, the speed at which your body is recovering is really incredible!" If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe you were still in the hospital last week, and I heard that you still had severe sepsis. ”
His grandson said, "Yes, even the doctors in the Presbyterian Hospital say it's a medical miracle!" ”
Hearing this pair of grandchildren say this, Yuan Yanqian's heart moved, and she vaguely guessed why Mr. George Baker was so fast, and it could even be said that he couldn't wait to invite himself over to play the little white ball.
IT SEEMS THAT IT IS NOT HIS TALENT THAT HOLDS HIM, IT IS HIS OWN "MEDICAL MIRACLE" THAT HOLDS THIS "MIRACLE OF WALL STREET".
As for why Mr. Baker Sr. cared so much about his body...... For an eighty-year-old man, does that need to be asked?
The older a person is, the more afraid he is of death, and the richer he is, the more afraid of death he is!
