Miami Department of Veterans Affairs Administration Center. It handles all veterans-related administrative matters in the Miami area, and also manages the facilities such as veterans' nursing homes, veterans' welfare homes, veterans' clinics, and veterans' canteens in the Miami area.

Tommy took some briefing materials, walked out of the main entrance of the management center with a sore face, pulled the car door and sat back in the car, then took out his wallet, counted the banknotes inside, counted his own hundred yuan, and it was only five hundred and thirty yuan, Paige saw that his face was a little ugly, and said next to him:

"When I was in California, if you donate 400 dollars to the Association of Retired Police Officers, that's enough to receive an invitation to the association's quarterly appreciation dinner, and if you think the change looks too shabby, I can go and help you get four 100-dollar bills."

"I know, it's cheaper here than in California, and you can get an invitation for 300 dollars, but I don't need an invitation to the quarterly appreciation dinner, and Jeff can't afford to speak at the dinner right now, and it's only 400 yuan, and the association won't give him a chance to speak for the election." Tommy took a deep breath and said with some depression:

"He doesn't have a base, he doesn't have a base, he doesn't have anything, so he can't make a deal with the rich people at the dinner party, he can only squeeze the money out of a certain group of poor people, and only after turning that group into Jeff's base plate and making sure that he has value worthy of the attention of other party candidates or working with him, the rich people may talk to him, and the most important thing is that those politicians have already thought of winning the votes of this group, the third-ranked candidate of the Democratic Party, Gerald Richman, His political action committee donated 20,000 yuan here, which means that unless we contribute more money, all the officials or staff here at this moment will not pay attention to us, let alone wave the flag for Jeff."

"Do you need me to drive?" Paige didn't care about this kind of thing, and just asked Tommy.

Tommy looked at the profiles about veterans' welfare institutions in his hand: "Yes, we can only use stupid methods to bring those old people's homes one by one to help Jeff raise money, there are a total of twelve veterans' homes in Miami, we get at least 2,000 yuan in each old people's home, according to the average number of people in each place 42 people, each old guy has to donate at least 48 yuan to us, then we need to pack Jeff, otherwise with Jeff's stupid virtue now, let alone 48 yuan, 48 cents will not be able to raise."

"Where?"

Tommy threw the free profile of the Department of Veterans Affairs to the back seat:

"By car, let's go to the car rental shop, then to the clothing store, then to the video hall, and then to find a hairstyle

······ By the way, Martin seems to have worked as a barber."

By the time Tommy returned to Jeff's house after everything was done, it was already dinner time at Jeff's house, but instead of going to bed early, Jeff's living room was in full swing.

The four children, who were lining up in front of the telephone to make a phone call, took turns urging their classmates and friends to turn on the TV now to watch their father's heroic appearance, and her sister-in-law Gina was also lined up behind the four children, ready to call her hometown and boast to those relatives that her brother-in-law has now become a big man who can appear on TV.

For many countrymen, being on TV is unthinkable.

Jessica regretted the image of Jeff in the news picture, thinking that she should let Jeff wear the suit they wore when they got married, which would make him look more handsome, and Jeff said that the burger owner made a special call, saying that he had sent him a small check for 20 yuan to support his election, and told Jeff that if he appeared on TV again next time, he hoped that he would continue to hold his signature burger.

As for Martin, he and Jeff's two smart friends, Zach and Allen, had a serious discussion about who had better acting skills, he or Jeff.

Seeing Tommy walk in, the whole living room suddenly fell silent, only the voice of the news anchor on the TV was left, and after a pause of two seconds, everyone came back to their senses and went their separate ways, and Jessica got up and said that she had saved Tommy a dinner.

"Jeff, I've rented a car for you, it's parked outside, let's try it out." Tommy politely rejects Jessica

The offer to let him taste Chinese food, tilting his head towards Jeff:

"Also, I can hear you yelling inside, I don't know if you think you won the Nobel Prize in Physics by relying on the Horizon, to keep a low profile, just appear on the news programs of a few local TV stations."

Jeff stood up confused, "You rented a car for me? But why rent a car when you have three cars at home?"

He has three cars at home, a Ford sedan Tepo he drives, which is convenient for keeping his various tools for repairing pipes in the trunk, a family Ford Mercury that Jessica drives to buy groceries or pick up and drop off her children, and a Chevrolet family six-seater recreational vehicle, which is convenient for the family of six to go out together on weekends.

Everyone else also heard Tommy's words, and at this time they walked out of the house with Jeff curiously, wanting to see what kind of car Tommy had rented for Jeff, but after they came out, everyone seemed to be petrified in an instant, and they were stunned on the spot.

In front of everyone's eyes, a 1979 Ford F150 pickup truck was parked, and the body was sprayed with jungle camouflage paint, and on the front bonnet, there was a pair of American flags and a conspicuous slogan:

"This is America! Say no to the Cubans!"

Everyone was so shocked by the shape of the car that they couldn't speak, and Jeff's smart friend Zach even covered his mouth and was so shocked that he whispered, "Shit! Tommy, you're in the 18th district, where Cubans make up 45% of the population, and you actually drove this car back in its entirety? Didn't you get smashed by Cubans?"

"Go up and try it, tomorrow you will drive this pickup truck that has made great contributions to the United States *** team to the veterans' nursing home, condolences to those veterans, and give a touching speech." Tommy said to Jeff.

Jeff saw this tattered old pickup that didn't even sell anything to be called: "I don't understand, Tommy, why is you driving this car?" My Ford Tepo is in much better condition than this one, it's only three years old, and it's been ravaged in the swamp for at least eight years."

"Ford Tepo? Are you kidding? What kind of car to go to a place full of veterans?" Tommy looked at Jeff and cursed, then rolled his eyes and looked at Martin:

"Martin, help Jeff translate, why can't you drive his car to that kind of place.

As Tommy's mouthpiece, Martin shrugged his shoulders and said without reservation: "Because those veterans will ask Jeff, hey, boy, did the car dealer let you mortgage your eggs there when you bought a car?" That's why you bought a car that only a girl drives?"

"Very good, good translation, that's what it means." Tommy opened the door of the pickup truck, took out a large outfit and handed it to Jeff's wife: "This is the costume that Jeff will wear tomorrow, a camouflage baseball cap, a camouflage T-shirt, polo pants and boots.

"And~" Tommy finally took out a video tape and handed it to Jeff, "learn how to be a tough guy."

Jeff looked down, it was an old movie released in 1978, "Fist" starring Sylvester Stallone.

It tells the story of a young worker who is full of enthusiasm and leads a workers' strike because he is dissatisfied with the collusion between capitalists and politicians to corrupt and oppress workers, and eventually grows up to become the chairman of the truckers' union in collusion with politicians, capitalists and the mafia.

Tommy added before Jeff could realize why he was watching the film, "The most important thing is that you are only allowed to watch the first half, and the second half is not for you at the moment."
