The Horisman School, a private preparatory school in New York, was founded in 1887 as a member of the Ivy League High School.
Cooper Rockefeller was a student at this school and a school bully.
His surname gives him this power,
With a group of fox friends and dogs, do some annoying things.
At seven o'clock in the morning,
Cooper was half-sitting on his desk, playing with a dagger in his hand,
He was very distressed,
"Boring. It's boring. ”
As he spoke, he nodded to the student at the next table,
"Hey! Kid West! ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone at the scene cast their eyes, full of schadenfreude.
The so-called "western boy" is actually a pronoun,
The student's name was Taylor Bloom, and he was insulted by Cooper because he was from Mibanshi, on the West Coast.
Cooper cleared his throat,
"Kid West!"
This time, the rest of the students burst into laughter.
Taylor's face immediately flushed,
However, he had no way to take the other party, because his tuition was sponsored by the Rockefeller family.
Since Sir Lu proposed the amendment to the tax law, American conglomerates seem to have become extremely concerned about education, health care and other philanthropy.
The foundations and associations that have sprung up are a testament to this.
Of course, these organizations are all regulated by AAAS.
On the other side, Cooper's face also turned red,
Because of the excitement.
He walked over to Taylor's table,
"I've heard that gambling with knives is popular in the wild West? Like ...... A game between your fingers? ”
finger games,
Participants are required to place the palm of their left hand on a wooden table, hold a knife in their right hand, and stab back and forth between the fingers of their left hand in a quick back and forth.
You can imagine how dangerous this thing is.
Taylor didn't squeak.
The classroom fell silent,
Someone whispered, "Cooper, you ......"
Cooper waved his hand to his classmates,
"You want to try?"
The student immediately shut his mouth.
So, Cooper looked at Taylor again and teased, "Kid West, the most primitive game, for the most primitive people." You should like it, right? ”
Taylor looked up slowly,
"That's right, we Westerners love this kind of risky sport the most."
He stared at each other,
"We also like to cut off people's heads and tie them to the back of horses' butts so that they can open their mouths wide to catch horse manure."
This is the threat of the red fruit.
Combined with Taylor's eyes and tone, Cooper took a step back in fright, and his back was pressed against the table with a muffled sound.
After all, he is a son-in-law, strong on the outside and capable in the middle.
Cooper looked left and right, and found that his classmates were all looking at him, and his face turned red again.
This time it's because of shame.
He stepped forward and drew his dagger,
Bang –
The tip of the dagger is pierced into the table.
Cooper said, "Bloom, it looks like you really want to have fun?" ”
Of course, he didn't plan to let the other party really play finger games, just wanted to save face.
Taylor snorted coldly and lowered his head,
This is considered to be a soft convincing.
After all, I still have to take Rockefeller's sponsorship and finish the book.
Just then, the door to the classroom opened,
The teacher walked through the door with a mixed-race East Asian student and said, "Today we are here...... What's going on? Go back and sit down! ”
The students hurried home.
Cooper gave Taylor a cold look, drew his dagger, and sat back like a victorious general.
The teacher said, "Today we have a new classmate. ”
After speaking, he nodded to the transfer student,
"Tell me about yourself."
The student stepped forward,
"My name is Lu Yun, Chinese. I hope I can get along with you in the future. ”
There was silence in the classroom,
“……”
“……”
“……”
Everyone looked at each other, confused.
The teacher was also very confused,
"Lu Yun, it's over?"
Lu Yun nodded,
"Yes."
The teacher suddenly had a head and two big,
"Won't you tell us about your hobbies? For example, what sports are you good at? ”
Lu Yun thought for a while,
"I'm not very good at sports."
The classroom was quiet again,
Then, snickering followed.
Cooper pouted and muttered, "What's the matter with a madman?" ”
He would say such hostile words, not because Lu Yun said that he was not good at sports, but because of Lu Yun's accent-
Very standard British pronunciation.
For some reason, this made Cooper very unhappy,
But the specific reason, he himself can't say.
On the other hand, Taylor had a slight affection for Lu Yun.
High school students are the age group with the most vigorous hormone secretion, and what follows is to be competitive and brave.
And Lu Yun admits that he is not good at sports,
Such an attitude has nothing to do with low self-esteem, nor is it a teenager and an old-fashioned low-key act, but rather a unique strength and self-confidence, as if disdain to tell lies.
In addition, there is a very realistic point,
Taylor thought a little darkly,
If Lu Yun can help him attract Cooper's firepower, that would be a good thing.
On the podium, the teacher was full of black lines,
 ̄□ ̄||
The heart says,
Does this freshman not understand human speech?
But he couldn't help it.
It stands to reason that almost all of Horisman's students are from New York, and foreign transfer students are very rare.
But the principal is very secretive about this Lu Yun's identity,
Teachers can only treat them as normal.
He pointed to the back row,
"You go sit there first, and get acquainted with your classmates...... By the way, you don't have sportswear yet, do you? There was a rugby training session this afternoon. ”
There was another snickering at the scene,
As soon as Lu Yun said "not good at sports", this kind of thing happened.
The teacher also noticed that he had a problem speaking.
He cleared his throat,
"It's all quiet!"
The students fell silent.
The teacher thought about how to make up for it, so he walked up to Lu Yun and said in a low voice: "Sportswear has to be paid." In that case, you won't ...... this afternoon for the time being."
This is said to protect Lu Yun.
Who would have thought that Lu Yun actually took out a checkbook from the inside of his clothes,
"How much?"
Teacher:???
Cooper: ???
Taylor:???
Once again, everyone was in a state of bewilderment.
Cooper was knowledgeable, squinted his eyes and looked over curiously, and found that in the upper left corner of the checkbook were the logos of Standard Chartered Bank and Lloyds Bank.
It's just that there is a tiny logo next to the two logos.
The painting seems to be a woman, the image is carefully depicted, the lines are simple and smooth, the facial features are clearly recognizable, and she sits upright in the center.
She was holding a spear, with the St. George's Cross painted on her shield and piles of coins at her feet.
Cooper couldn't help but recall,
Which bank is this?
After a few seconds, he suddenly remembered,
The woman on the logo appears to be Britannia, the goddess of Great Britain,
So, that's the hallmark of the Bank of England.
Cooper almost burst out laughing,
A cheque book with the logos of two commercial banks on it, and the logo of the Bank of England?
That's the Bank of England!
Go to the central bank to exchange checks, do you want people to print money on the spot?
Isn't that a joke?
Besides, it is impossible for the Bank of England to print dollars,
You don't have to exchange currency, right?
So, that checkbook could only be a fabrication.
Cooper looked at Lu Yun deeply, ready to debunk,
But thinking that if I asked the school to cash it and found that the check was not easy to use, I would stand up and explain and spread it when the time came, which seemed to be a better way to make Lu Yun lose face, so I forcibly held back.
Cooper thought to himself,
Chinese guys, wait to lose face!
……
Afternoon.
Stadium.
Today's training activities have come to an end.
But the scene was still lively.
Although Lu Yun is better than his father in sports, he really can't play high-confrontational rugby.
He sat in the stands, lazily basking in the sun.
At this time, Cooper approached,
"Lu, what are you doing? Really not good at sports? ”
Lu Yun waved his hand,
"I don't understand the rules. For example, False Start, I accidentally did it several times just now, and as an attacker, I was punished and retreated, which was really a bit of a drag on my teammates. ”
False Start, the attacker moves early,
Refers to the attacker moving before the serve, except for a player who moves parallel behind the line,
This type of foul is common.
Cooper's face darkened, and he lowered his voice,
"What do you mean?"
Just now, he fouled many times when he was attacking, but the coach didn't blow the penalty.
Naturally, the other students also turned one eye open and one eye closed.
Lu Yun shook his head,
"I'm just telling the truth."
What a "tell the truth"!
Cooper's face darkened, and he had the intention of killing this Chinese guy,
“Fxxk!”
He stepped forward and wanted to grab Lu Yun's collar.
Unexpectedly, someone behind him shouted: "Cooper, come on!" We can't do without you! ”
Cooper's movements paused,
However, he stubbornly didn't look back, still staring at Lu Yun tightly.
The strange thing is that Lu Yun didn't move.
It stands to reason that he was already familiar with the class and could not have been unimpressed by Cooper's last name.
Rockefeller
Even though it was split up twenty years ago, the entire family turned into financial operations, and its strength was only stronger than it was then.
Lu Yun didn't know, unless he ......
"Hmph."
The corners of Cooper's mouth curled,
"You are a Chinese, it's normal not to know."
Lu Yun frowned,
Although I don't understand why the other party suddenly said to himself, the hostility in his tone can still be heard.
He fell into deep thought, thinking in his heart how to cure the other party.
As a result, Cooper mistook this silence as weakness.
He smiled and approached,
"It's okay if you don't know, I can let you know now."
Unexpectedly, someone pinched his shoulder from behind.
Cooper looked back,
It turned out to be Taylor.
"Boy West, how do you ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Taylor interrupted, "Cooper, our team needs you. If you don't come, we're going to lose. ”
Cooper's face turned cold, first at Lu Yun, and then at Taylor,
"Tsk......"
He was slightly stunned and teased: "It's very chivalrous~ It seems that I shouldn't call you 'Western Boy' in the future, but should call you 'Cowboy Boy'." ”
With that, he shook his shoulders and shook off Taylor's hand,
"If you want to be a cowboy, you shouldn't be reading in the classroom, you should learn equestrian and drinking."
Taylor is silent,
If it was just a contradiction between high school students, he would have thrown it over with a punch.
It's a pity that things are not that simple.
Cooper continued: "It just so happens that for my family, it doesn't make a difference who sponsors school. Does it matter if he is in the West or in China? ”
He looked at Lu Yun and Taylor again, and then jumped out of the stands and prepared to return to the field.
Then, as if he remembered something, he ran back and said to Taylor, "Cowboy boy, you can't see that he can take out the checkbook in the morning and think he's some kind of hidden cow X character, so you bet on him, right?" ”
Taylor couldn't help but be stunned,
His background made him not know much about the affairs of the upper class.
A checkbook or something, it's too far away.
Cooper looked at him like this, why didn't he understand?
"It seems that you really want to help others. But there is a price to pay for doing this kind of thing, and that checkbook is fake. ”
After speaking, he looked at Lu Yun,
"I'm not wrong, am I?"
Lu Yun sighed,
"It's true."
Cooper couldn't help but laugh and said, "You are a Chinese, holding a checkbook from the British Bank?" You're amazing! You're amazing! If you want to fool others, you have to fool yourself first, right? Hahahahaha! ”
He laughed and left,
Lu Yun looked at his back like a fool and shook his head.
Taylor sighed,
"Lu, what he just said ......"
I didn't finish asking the rest of the words,
It's rude to ask.
Lu Yun smiled and said, "That checkbook is indeed real. ”
This smile has a natural affinity that makes people can't help but believe it.
He continued: "As for what Rockefeller just mentioned, all I can say is that Chinese is my cultural identity, and my nationality ...... Frankly, I'm multinational. ”
Taylor has a bit of a big head,
Because the other party's answer is very magical, I don't know whether to believe it or not.
Reason tells him not to believe;
Sensual judgment is the opposite.
Lu Yun said: "Listen to Rockefeller, you are sponsored to go to school. ”
Taylor nodded,
"Yes. They are supported by their family. ”
Lu Yun frowned,
"Their family? It doesn't make sense. Educational charities funded by various organizations should be managed by the school's foundation, which will then select and admit people of different genders and ethnicities. ”
In other words, because the foundation separates students and donor organizations, it is not possible to talk about who funded whom.
To put it bluntly, it is also the school that provides scholarships for poor students.
Taylor sighed,
That's true, but what about reality? The Rockefeller family was influential in the school. ”
Lu Yun nodded slowly,
It's like a political donation.
Ostensibly, an individual, group, or business provides financial support to a candidate, and these funds can only be used for election activities, operations, or the promotion of specific policies,
But in reality, there are many entanglements of interests.
Rockefeller said in a word, cut off a student's scholarship, don't be too simple.
Lu Yun groaned: "Perhaps, you should prepare the materials and go to the foundation to communicate well." After all, there are many regulators of the foundation, not only Rockefeller, but also Carnegie, Morgan, and AAA...... Forehead...... I haven't asked you yet, how are your grades? ”
"It's good."
Taylor will be skeptical,
"You mean AAAS is the American Association for the Advancement of Science? This...... How dare you say ......?"
He shook his head,
"I go to the Foundation to communicate, can it be effective?"
Lu Yun said: "AAAS is definitely ......"
He hesitated slightly,
When I first came to the United States, would I cause trouble by using my father's authority in AAAS?
or
"Looking for Uncle Carnegie for help?"
He muttered to himself.
Taylor didn't hear clearly,
"Lu, what did you just say?"
Lu Yun spread his hands,
"I said, you should prepare your materials. There is a saying in China, 'a dead horse is a live horse doctor', you can't help but work hard and don't try, right? ”
Hope also rose in Taylor's heart, and said, "You have a point. After all, this is the United States, not like Great Britain that is on the verge of death and darkness everywhere. I should indeed have made a trip to the school's foundation to explain the situation. ”
God meows "about to die, everywhere darkness",
Lu Yun almost burst out laughing.
