Chapter 370 The Whites
After Hu Xuyong finished looking for Chen Jiu, he asked a few old people from the Kowloon Walled City to inquire.
Those who open a Chinese medicine clinic, those who open restaurants, young and Dangerous people who need to eat, and those who are injured need to see a doctor. People from social organizations must have a lot of contact with these two types of people; besides, although there are tens of thousands of people living in Kowloon Walled City, the place is really different. Big, come out to mix, most people should know.
After cross-examination, the final conclusion was that Qiu Chishan had no relatives other than his son.
On a peaceful evening, Nan Yi and Scarlett invited the Whites to have dinner.
In order to show closeness, it is naturally impossible to make an appointment in an outside restaurant, and the dinner will be arranged at Scarlett's home.
At seven o'clock, the doorbell rang.
"Stanley, Diane, come in quickly. Adam is preparing dinner in the kitchen. It will be ready soon." Scarlett opened the door and said kindly to the Whites.
In fact, Scarlett and the Whites met for the first time. According to the normal social process, she could not call the Whites by their names so casually, but should call them Mr. White, Mrs. White or Mrs. Roosevelt.
What she did was to quickly shorten the distance between the two parties.
"Is the wine brought for us?" Scarlett pointed to the wine in White's hand and said.
"certainly."
White handed the wine to Scarlett.
"Sig-Sonoma Old Vine Zinfandel, it's a good wine, so let's drink this today." Scarlett praised the red wine in her hand, and then said: "Come with me, go to the kitchen to help Adam Please be busy, otherwise he will definitely not be able to handle it, and we may be hungry."
Taking advantage of Scarlett's turning around, White and Diane looked at each other, exchanged eyes, and happily followed Scarlett to the kitchen.
First of all, if it is not for a party, Yiguo will not easily invite strangers to their home. Secondly, if they are invited to help out in the kitchen, this is a sign of their acquaintance.
Unlike other countries where positions are usually appointed from above, in China they are usually elected. The mayor is elected by the townspeople, and the mayor is elected by the citizens. Regardless of whether the election process is fair or not, that's what it means anyway.
A mayor has to represent the interests of a small town, at least the interests of a group of people. The mayor does not have the right to order a mayor. If there is anything, it can only be said to be a negotiation.
Unless it is related to homeland security, agencies like the FBI can run rampant in the country.
In the United States, it is also very common for the governor and Washington to fight each other.
The governor is elected by the "people" in the state, and has nothing to do with Washington. Instead, it is Washington, which needs a tax from the state to support it.
The "people" who elect the governor usually allude to people like Scarlett.
No matter what you are running for, you have to make some promises, sit in a certain position, and prepare to bring about some changes.
And this so-called "change" is inseparable from the support of people like Scarlett, with red mouth and white teeth, no money, no support, how to change?
For example, if you promise to reduce the unemployment rate, if you want to reduce it, you will inevitably need the support of business owners. If the business owners don't support it, and instead carry out mass layoffs, then the promise made is bullshit.
If White wants to enter the political arena, he naturally needs the support of companies like Pan Am. The two sides are mutually beneficial and find a balance point. I will help you and you will help me.
"Adam, do you need help?" White said to Nanyi as soon as he entered the kitchen.
"Of course, cut the apple into pieces for me. Smoked salmon is too troublesome, and I can't spare my hands to make a salad." Nan Yi sneered, pointing to the apple in the glass bowl on the desk.
"Wow, this apple is really big." White picked up an apple in the glass bowl and exaggeratedly exclaimed: "This apple weighs 1.2 pounds [1 pound is 9 taels, don't care about the decimal point, and you won't get confused in your mind. up]?"
"Almost, these are Mutsu apples from Aomori, Japan, and they taste very good."
"Then I'll try it." White picked up a knife and cut the apple into small pieces, picked up one of the small pieces and stuffed it into his mouth, "Well, the taste is really good. Is this kind of apple only available in Japan?"
"Currently, this kind of apple needs careful attention from the beginning of pruning, and most of them require manual participation and cannot be mechanized."
"I also want to say that this tree species can be introduced and planted in New York State." White shrugged.
"It's not impossible. Both New York and Aomori County are located at 40 degrees north latitude. Although there is no forest coverage rate of nearly 70% in Aomori County, and there is no fertile soil formed after the volcanic eruption, these can be done through scientific methods. Improvement, it may not be impossible to grow this kind of apple in New York State."
"So, this is one of Scarlett Food Group's preparatory projects?"
"You can say that."
Wangmu Fruit Industry is planning to start with rare fruit varieties from all over the world, testing the feasibility of off-site cultivation, and also testing whether it can improve and cultivate its own rare fruit varieties.
Whether it is the luxury market of fruits, the circulation of ordinary fruits, or the mechanized fruit planting and picking like Germany, and then the direct production of jams and juices, Wangmu Fruit Industry will have a foot in it.
It's just that Wangmu Fruit Industry will enter the terminal only for luxury fruits, and the other two models will only act as suppliers and will not enter the terminal link.
Nanyi can't earn all the money by himself, but also has to give others a way to survive.
Otherwise, others will make Nanyi dead.
Then, the two families had dinner together in a friendly atmosphere, and they didn't talk about anything specific, just talked about their hobbies, and made an appointment to play tennis or something.
Nan Yi and White made an appointment to go to Mount Wilson to hunt waterfowl during the hunting season this year. Mount Wilson in New York provides waterfowl hunting, as well as deer and small hunting.
Every autumn, there are many pheasants in that area.
Before leaving, the Whites also left an invitation for Nan Yi and his wife to visit his house.
After seeing off the guests, Scarlett said, "Adam, what do you think of White?"
"Not bad, quite politically minded."
"But I think Diane has more brains than White, and, although she hides it well, I can see that she actually has political ambitions."
"Isn't this normal? It would be strange if the members of the Roosevelt family have no political ambitions."
"So, who do you want to support?"
"Why do we have to support a certain one? We just need to support the Whites. As for how to allocate resources between them, we don't need to ask. Scarlett, I won't show up on occasions like this in the future."
"Well, I know, I will continue to follow up. When are you going to talk about the Emerald Team with White, bitch, you dare to hurt our Akesa, Adam, don't keep anything except the dog."
Scarlett also likes Fan Hongdou very much, and she was also furious when Fan Hongdou was hurt by Chi Yu.
"No, there are cats."
"OK, except cats and dogs, send them to God."
"Well, later, in two days, I will ask White to play golf, and then I will talk to him about it on the course."
"Come on, poor Akesa, you might get a scar on your face."
"It's not a big problem, and it won't leave too deep a scar. I'll take Hongdou to see a doctor. If Western medicine doesn't look good, I'll go to a Chinese medicine doctor. Some Chinese medicine doctors have secret recipes for removing scars."
"Adam, Akaisa is a girl, you must pay attention."
"I know."
In the past two days, I will modify the previous content. Some of them involve violations. The update volume may be slightly reduced. I will try not to reduce it. It's already tasteless, no matter how much I eat, I'm afraid you will scold me to death.
Today is an exception. Last night I caught a cold and my nose was running.
