The man looked at Qi Xiao lightly for a while, then turned around and began to swim towards the shore: "You don't need to come here at all, I can solve this matter alone." ”

Qi Xiao lightly stepped on a small piece of broken sampan, with a little water on his right foot, galloped towards the shore, and turned around: "It seems that you are the one who is late, right?" ”

The man nodded, and began to speed up as well, and as he made a splash, he said, "Yes, I swam here, and I was on vacation in Hawaii when I received the order last night." ”

Qi Xiao was slightly stunned, turned around and asked, "In other words, you swam thousands of kilometers from the west coast of the United States to New York on the east coast in one night?" ”

"Yes." The two arrived at the shore at the same time, and the man jumped hard in the water and stood on the shore with a "bang".

And Qi Xiao tiptoed and stood beside him silently.

The two faced cheers and shouts like the tide of the sea, the man waved at the "audience" on the shore, took the drink handed over by a beautiful woman, looked back at Qi Xiao with a stiff and indifferent expression, and then put on his sunglasses.

The two of them stood on the shore at the same time at this time, and only then did they show the height of the American man, who was half a head taller than Qi Xiao, and the muscles of his whole body were as solid as iron, giving people an infinite sense of security.

He put on a pair of army green trousers, and the shoes on his feet were very familiar to Qi Xiao, and he recognized them for a long time before muttering two words: "Pull back ......?" ”

"Where did you come from, the Panama Canal, or did it encircle the whole of South America?" Qi Xiao looked at this big man with knotted muscles and asked with interest.

"I'm not as stupid as you think......" The man seemed to be dismissive of this question and even a little offended, he took a sip of his drink, continued to look at Qi Xiao and said: "Panama is in a good climate now, you should take the initiative to resign before the official meeting of the United Nations, and tell them that you can't do this job, in that case, you still have time to go over and take a vacation." ”

"And what do you think the other three transcendents should do?" When Qi Xiao heard this, he was not angry, but continued to ask with a smile.

"Perhaps...... You can talk to them about a group trip to Contadora. The American glanced at Qi Xiao proudly and indifferently, and then he approached Qi Xiao and said in a low voice, "I...... There is no need for any cumbersomeness. ”

With that, he waved his hand to the crowd of laughter and applause, picked up a watery jacket on the beach, and turned to ride onto a half-new motorcycle on the shore, shining with a powerful metallic sheen under the hard lines.

"Good car!" Qi Xiao followed up and praised him.

Perhaps it was this sentence that aroused the favor of the arrogant American, and a smile unnaturally appeared on his originally cold face.

He patted the frame of the motorcycle and said proudly: "Harley-Davidson, curved combination tube frame, dual exhaust pipes, 2000 cc displacement, five-speed shifting." ”

Qi Xiao nodded appreciatively and circled around the locomotive: "It seems that I should also buy a car, what do you think of Volkswagen's new Beetle?" ”

When the man heard this, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he immediately started the motorcycle, and in the deafening roar, he disappeared.

"This man is too arrogant!" Zhao Qianyu walked over from a distance, frowning and looking at the man's distant back, but then her face changed, with a nymphomaniac smile: "But ...... His muscles are so charming, a bit like Chris Evans more than twenty years ago, but not very handsome. ”

"That Captain America? What's so good about that pimple meat? Qi Xiao watched more and more people gather from the high-rise buildings in Manhattan and Alice Island not far away, and yawned a little excitedly, "What about the tour guide, let's go back before the National Guard comes?" The hotel room rate is 20,000 nights, but it can't be empty. ”

Zhao Qianyu said: "I dialed the phone just now, and General Warfield's secretary told me that someone at the United Nations headquarters is looking for you, and it is Chinese. ”

"I don't have any relatives in the United States, right?" Qi Xiaohu said suspiciously.

The group said goodbye to the frightened Aunt Susan, and came to the agreed place outside the United Nations headquarters, two Chinese in suits and leather shoes were already standing next to a Lincoln car and waiting early, as soon as the car door opened, someone came forward and bowed and saluted: "Excuse me, is it Mr. Qi Xiao?" ”

"Yes, I am." Qi Xiao nodded.

"That's right, we're lawyers at the Hongmen Zhigong Court in New York, and we've been entrusted with a property in Brooklyn that you need to sign for." The two of them also seemed to know Qi Xiao's background, and they were standing in a proper manner, very polite.

"House? I've just been in the U.S. for a day, who will give me a house? Qi Xiao looked at the two people in front of him a little puzzled.

A lawyer saw Qi Xiao's puzzled expression, and immediately explained with a smile: "It was ordered by Ms. Qu in China." ”

"Ah, it's my mother......" Qi Xiaoden suddenly realized, nodded, and muttered, "It's better to be my own mother." ”

When the two lawyers heard this, their faces darkened at the same time, but one of the lawyers quickly reflected: "I don't know if you have time now, we can accompany you to see the house." ”

"Do you have time?" Qi Xiao turned around and asked Wang Zhe and Zhao Qianyu behind him.

"Please, young master, you're too polite. We are your followers. Wang Zhe smiled bitterly, after two or three days of getting along, he had already figured out Qi Xiao's temper.

"Oh, well, let's go over now?" Qi Xiao asked.

"Please get in the car." A lawyer was respectful, but opened the car door next to him very quickly.

The group got in the car, and within a while, they came to this single-family apartment in Brooklyn, next to Jamaica Bay.

"This ...... So big? When Qi Xiao was still sitting in the car, he was dumbfounded when he saw this manor-style apartment, "This house is mopped once a day, and the furniture is wiped once, so there is no need to do anything." ”

"And the lawn ......"

"And the pool?"

"Oh my God, how big is my mom playing mahjong now, winning such a big house? How many guns do you have to order at home? As the vehicle drove and got closer and closer to the apartment, Qi Xiao became more and more unable to sit still.

The group got out of the car, and the lawyer took out the keys, opened the door, and invited a few people in.

"The house was built in 1946, and as of this year it is exactly 100 years old, and in that 100 years, there were only three owners, starting with the Wayne family, who started out in the military industry, and this is where the family vacationed in Jamaica Bay."

"But in the '80s, the house was transferred, and Mr. Howard Stark bought the apartment as a gift for his son's college graduation, as well as extensive renovations and the addition of a lot of electronic technology."

"As for the third place, it is Mr. Mario, who graduated from the Brooklyn Higher Industrial Technical School, as the owner of the largest property company in New York at that time, he has a deep affection for the Brooklyn borough and often lives here, so he has invested a lot in this villa, but now his business is getting bigger and bigger, and the focus of his activities has shifted overseas, so he can only reluctantly cut his love and put this house up for sale."

While introducing, the lawyer led a few people to the door of the main hall, Zhao Qianyu and Wang Zhe looked at the details of this luxurious residence, and let out exclamations from time to time.

"The villa has three floors, 23 rooms, nine bathrooms, three kitchens, a library, gym and garden, in addition to a basement, with a total area of about 2,672 square meters...... many of which have been simply renovated and cleaned according to Ms. Qu's arrangement," the lawyer enthusiastically introduced.

Zhao Qianyu and Wang Zhe on the side looked at Qi Xiao with red eyes: "Local tyrants, ......"

Qi Xiao shook his head and said, "The local tyrant is my mother, and I didn't buy it." ”

Zhao Qianyu joked: "Then does your mother still lack a daughter?" The kind that knows a foreign language? ”

"Okay, okay, you're not fooling me into buying this house, why do you spend so much effort, what else do I need to do?" Qi Xiao listened to the lawyer's introduction for a while, and asked impatiently.

"Uh...... All you have to do is sign here, receive the keys, and we'll take care of the rest. The lawyer said.

"Thank you, would you like to have dinner together in the evening? I'm very good at cooking. Qi Xiao asked, looking up while signing.

The two lawyers looked at each other in astonishment: "...... No, no, no. ”

"Okay, then I won't send it." Qi Xiao quickly signed, and the two lawyers took their leave.

"Great! I used to dream of living in a house like this. All the furnishings of the house were well maintained, and at a glance, it was clear that everything here had been carefully cleaned before they arrived, so as soon as the lawyer left, Zhao Qianyu turned around and quickly threw himself into a soft sofa next to him.

"Then you can buy one." Qi Xiao looked up and down, turned around and smiled.

"To put it lightly, with my salary, I can't afford to buy it for a hundred years without eating or drinking."

"Actually...... It's a big house at best, far worse than the real villas of Hollywood stars. Wang Zhe touched the door frame and said sourly, "But...... In New York, where every inch of land is at a premium, few people can afford it. ”

Qi Xiao pouted at the two of them and said, "Then you two will live here, aren't you sent by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to monitor me for a long time, let's live here in the future, it just so happens that I don't think I can get used to living in a hotel." ”

"Who can keep an eye on your ......? But the rooms in the Plaza Hotel are also very good...... It's still an American treat over there, and we've only stayed for a day, so we can't live in vain. Zhao Qianyu sat up and began to weigh the residences on both sides, and for a while he was entangled.

The three of them visited the house for a while, sat down, Wang Zhe sat on the soft sofa, raised his eyes to look at the beautiful chandelier, patted the armrest of the sofa, and said with a smile: "Hey, I said that people buy good houses when they have money." Compared to the place I was stationed in last year, this is a paradise on earth. ”

"Where did you work last year?" Zhao Qianyu heard him talk about this, and turned his head suspiciously.

"Somalia, what about you?"

"Ah, when I took the civil service exam, I was originally taken by the Ministry of Education, and in the first year of graduation, I worked in the Education Division of the US Embassy in New York for more than a year, and returned to China to work for a year at the beginning of last year, but I didn't expect to come back now." Zhao Qianyu said.

"Ha, then you're pretty good, it's a good place." Wang Zhe commented as a diplomatic elder.

"What's good, tossing back and forth, it's hard to find the object." Zhao Qianyu muttered.

"Uh...... I graduated from Peking University, good looks, good health, currently the third secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, only three years older than you, if you don't mind, you can consider me. Wang Zhe said seriously.

"Don't think about it!" Zhao Qianyu said with a crimson face.

"Haha......" Wang Zhe looked at Zhao Qianyu with a scared face and laughed.

Just as the two were teasing each other, suddenly the phone rang "ring".

Qi Xiao, who was sitting next to the telephone, pressed the hands-free button without having time to think about it.

"Hello sir, this is Federal Insurance Company, my name is Katie, we noticed that you just purchased one of the largest mansions in Brooklyn, do you need the most professional home insurance service in the whole of America?" A sweet and kind voice from a young girl came over the phone.

Qi Xiao paused slightly, and said, "Ah-ni-ha-thi-friend."

When the girl on the other side heard this, her tone became very flustered: "Ah, I'm sorry, sir, can you understand me?" ”

Qi Xiao was silent for a while before replying in English: "I'm sorry, in fact, I will say that." ”

The girl laughed on the phone for more than ten seconds before she asked with a smile: "If you need it, you can contact us at any time." ”

"Okay, thanks."
