Adams' proposal made Yang Nianzhong's eyes light up, but the three of them didn't understand Cantonese, which made Yang Nianzhong feel very embarrassed, and looked at Adam and said with a smile and a smile.

"I'd like to go, but do you know where Hong Kong's Antiques Street is? What's his name? Besides, can you communicate with the taxi driver? ”

When Adams heard Yang Nianzhong say this, he also shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, but at this time, the simple-minded and well-developed bear solved the problem of three people, and Yang Nianzhong, who was more excited, said with a slight smile.

"Boss, you can admit it, you usually think you are very smart, why are you stupid now. Although the three of us don't know Cantonese in Hong Kong, English is also widely spoken in Hong Kong, so don't you know English? ”

Hey, Adams and Yang Nianzhong looked back at the triumphant big bear, and they both felt that they didn't know this big guy, just like the big bear said, you Yang Nianzhong usually thinks he is smart, Adams is the captain of the Honey Badger team, and he is invincible on the battlefield and kills countless enemies, which can be called an elite.

But the smarter a person is, the more complicated he is when he thinks about things, and sometimes complexity does not necessarily solve the problem, and a simple and crude way of dealing with it can also solve many problems.

Compared with Yang Nianzhong and Adams, who think about things more complicated, the difference is that Big Bear is usually simple-minded and has developed limbs, and he likes to go straight and not bend when he does something, but now it is Big Bear who likes to go straight to solve the problem.

Da Xiong said well, although Hong Kong speaks Cantonese, but Hong Kong and Cantonese are both English and Mandarin, and some taxi drivers can understand Mandarin, some can't, but most of them can understand English.

You don't speak Cantonese, you can't find a taxi driver who understands Mandarin, so you can't speak English like a taxi driver? Doesn't that solve the problem? Ouch, that's easy.

Seeing Adams and the boss Yang Nianzhong, who suddenly realized, Da Xiong was so proud that he raised his eyes to the top of his brain, and he was very stinky. This made Yang Nianzhong very angry, and he gave a brain breakdown, beat the big bear to grin, and pointed to the taxis that were hurrying by on the street.

"Okay, yes, you kid solved a problem for me, in that case, the task of calling a taxi is up to you, you must find a taxi driver who can speak English, or I'll kick your ass."

Da Xiong didn't dare to argue anything with Yang Nianzhong at this time, so he quickly got up from his chair and stopped two taxis on the side of the street. Don't say it, there is really a taxi whose English is not bad, and when I saw that Nobita was a foreigner, I asked him in English first to ask where he was.

Da Xiong smiled slightly and quickly got Yang Nianzhong and Adams over, the three of them sat in the taxi, Yang Nianzhong smiled slightly, and said to the taxi driver in English.

"Hello sir, we are tourists who have just finished having morning tea in Hong Kong, and we plan to go to Hong Kong's more distinctive places to visit, do you know Hong Kong's antique streets? Can you take us there. ”

What Yang Nianzhong didn't expect was that the taxi driver was still a talkative person, smiled slightly and turned on the meter, and said to Yang Nianzhong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, while driving.

"No problem, Hollywood Antique Street, I often go to the place, we can get to the place in less than half an hour, but sir, you look like an Asian face, which country are you from?" Thai, Korean. ”

Yang Nianzhong's face was flushed, and he was embarrassed to say it, but when he saw the taxi driver taking the initiative to chat with him, he was embarrassed to say that you have to say it, so he held it for a long time before muttering.

"I'm not Thai, I'm not Korean, I'm not Japanese, I'm Chinese-American."

The taxi driver smiled slightly and said with a sudden realization. "Oh, it's a Chinese-American, seeing that you speak English so well, you must have been born and raised in the United States, and it's not surprising that you can't speak Mandarin."

Yang Nianzhong's face was about to turn purple at this time, and he was embarrassed and went to his grandmother's house, you Yang Nianzhong is still proud of being Chinese, but you still have to speak English to people when you take a taxi, what kind of Chinese American are you.

In order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, Yang Nianzhong held back for a long time, and then squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying to the taxi driver, and said embarrassedly. "Sir, you misunderstood that I don't speak Mandarin and I don't speak Cantonese."

The taxi driver was stunned for a moment, so he couldn't rear-end with the car in front of him, and then drove smoothly and held the steering wheel tightly, looking at Yang Nianzhong, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat on the side, suddenly came to a standard Mandarin and asked.

"You can speak Mandarin, so what English do you say when you stop the car? Why, I grew up in the United States and became a banana man, and I can't even speak my native language. ”

Ouch my mom, Yang Nianzhong was startled when he braked suddenly, and suddenly heard that the taxi driver actually used the most standard Mandarin, and he became a banana man, a yellow-skinned white man, this sentence is not a compliment.

This is obviously sarcastic about himself, if it is left on others, Yang Nianzhong will definitely be angry immediately, but on his own compatriots, Yang Nianzhong can only blush and explain with a thick neck.

"You misunderstood, you see how well I speak Mandarin, can I forget my own native language? The reason why I didn't communicate with you in Mandarin. That's for a reason. ”

"I thought that taxi drivers in Hong Kong only spoke Cantonese and not Mandarin, so I used English to communicate with you."

The taxi driver was stunned for a moment when he heard Yang Nianzhong's explanation, and then laughed so much that tears came out of his eyes, and he pointed at Yang Nianzhong with his finger and said while laughing.

"Young man, you are really interesting, who told you that Hong Kong taxi drivers do not know Mandarin, how many years has Hong Kong returned to the motherland? Every day, I can attract a lot of tourists from the mainland. ”

"It is a bit difficult for Hong Kong people to speak Mandarin, but after so many years of training, it is Martian and can still understand, I dare to say that 95% of taxi drivers in Hong Kong can speak Mandarin, of course, this can't blame you, is it the first time you have come to Hong Kong."

Yang Nianzhong shook his head and smiled bitterly, and nodded and said. "You're right, I'm coming to Hong Kong for the first time, so I don't know much about the local situation, I came ashore at Victoria Pier on the Royal Cruise Line."

"My friend took me and my family to have a morning tea, and after the morning tea, my friend took my mother and wife to go shopping, and I had nothing to do, so I planned to go around the antique street."

"But I saw people walking all over the avenue, and their mouths were all talking in Cantonese, I couldn't understand it, I thought that Hong Kong people could only understand Cantonese and not Mandarin, so I used English to communicate with you, it turned out that I was wrong, I'm sorry."

As soon as I saw that Yang Nianzhong, a young man, had not become a banana man who had forgotten his ancestors as he imagined, but did not understand the local situation, it was no wonder that there was such a misunderstanding in language communication. When I first came to Hong Kong, I saw Cantonese spoken all over the street, and I thought it was normal for Hong Kong people to not understand Mandarin.

Coupled with the special history of Hong Kong, it is not surprising that many Hong Kong people have been exposed to the English environment since childhood, and they can speak English, so Yang Nianzhong, a young man, adopted English to communicate with himself, a taxi driver.

The misunderstanding was resolved, and the taxi driver began to become very talkative again, and began to introduce to Yang Nianzhong how amazing and popular Hong Kong's antique street was, and talked until he got off at the Queen's Road West intersection, and the taxi driver also pointed to the antique street at the intersection and said to Yang Nianzhong.

"That's Hollywood Antique Street, there are hundreds of antique shops, and there are more people setting up stalls, enough for you to go shopping for a day, goodbye young man."

"Goodbye."
