Chapter 185: Preparation (Fourth Update)

"Boss, this way!" When Jiang Hai came out of New York's JFK Airport, he saw Philemon Turner waving to him from a distance. , Jiang Hai also walked out quickly carrying his bag.

"Hi, boss, you came back so early. I thought you would stay for another week before coming back." Seeing Jiang Hai, Philemon stepped forward and hugged Jiang Hai, and then the broken mouth syndrome Completely furious, he quickly said to Jiang Hai.

"How dare I not come back? If I don't come back, you won't be able to shake things up." He punched Philemon in the chest with a smile.

"Hey, boss, it's none of my business this time. I can only say that your fishing ground is too attracting attention. But I have to admit, boss, you have raised two good dogs. Why didn't I notice them at first? The dog was so powerful that it bit a man when it came up. If this guy wasn't so cruel, he would rather have a piece of his flesh torn off than escape, and we would have captured him alive, these damn white pigs!" Sitting in the cab, Philemon kept cursing.

"Wow, you dare to call me a white pig here. Aren't you afraid that Robbins and Ed will come to trouble you?" Jiang Hai said with some surprise after hearing Philemon's words.

"They can't hear you now. I believe my boss won't complain, right? Haha, okay, my boss, let's go!" Looking at Jiang Hai's unquestionable words, Philemon pretended to wipe his head. Khan, then he stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away outside. After leaving the airport, it sped towards the north.

The distance from New York to Boston is actually not too far, if you do the math. It's only four or five hundred kilometers away. Including where Jiang Hai lives, it's only five or six hours' drive. It's only five or six hours' drive. Driving alone is quite tiring, but Jiang Hai can also drive. The two of them decided to drive every two hours and it wouldn't matter if they arrived.

On the road, Jiang Hai's F650 was running very fast, constantly moving forward on the New York highway.

on the way. They can often see some tourist buses. It is the Chinese New Year recently, so there are definitely a lot of people who organize groups to visit the United States. After all, for China now, poor people still make up the majority. But there are more and more rich people. Through the car window, Jiang Hai can clearly see the car of people wearing water hats of various colors, listening to a tour guide standing on the front of the car. Speaking in vernacular.

Looking at these people, Jiang Hai also felt a little emotional, thinking back to the beginning. These people are the goals that I strive for. People who can go abroad to play at the end of the year are undoubtedly very enviable. But now, looking at it, I have unknowingly surpassed most of these people. , at least in terms of net worth, most of these people cannot be compared with Jiang Hai.

Before I knew it, the car had left New York state. Entering Massachusetts, the scenery along the way is actually not very good.

If it is spring, summer or autumn, the scenery along this road is still very good. Although there are no famous mountains or rivers, there are mountains, rivers and countryside, which look very comfortable. But after all, it is just the beginning of spring, right? Therefore, the ground is mostly filled with unmelted snow. Some small rivers that can be seen on the side of the road are flowing slowly. However, there are still some residual ice on the edge. In some pastures in the distance, this The weather was also dry and yellow, and only a little bit of green light could be seen on the branches of some trees on the roadside, representing the reborn aura.

"Boss, I have to admit that the manor you bought is indeed a treasure land. Did you know that? When we cleared the snow, we found that the grass under the snow was still green and had grown ahead of schedule. , we don’t need to re-sow grass seeds, which not only saves a lot of money, but also allows our cattle to eat fresh forage faster.” While looking at the depressed scene outside, Fili Meng said with a proud face, but Jiang Hai broke into a cold sweat after hearing this, because others didn't know what those grasses were about, but Jiang Hai knew very well. If it weren't for his blood, he would probably His manor was probably in a depressed state at this time, but fortunately these people did not think of the grass as a supernatural situation, which also made Jiang Hai breathe a sigh of relief. In the blink of an eye, Philemon had already opened more than two Hours of driving.

In order to prevent him from being too tired, Jiang Hai took the initiative to switch to the driving seat at the next rest stop. After the two of them had some snacks at the rest stop, Jiang Hai continued to drive towards his manor.

Although Jiang Hai's physical fitness is extremely strong, after driving for more than an hour, he could no longer concentrate so much. His eyes were looking everywhere. Just at this time, he passed by a tour bus again. , he glanced back and found that the people in the bus were eating lunch. Some of them might also be from the north. They were eating red sausage. As soon as he saw the red sausage, he suddenly felt I remembered what I had sent.

"By the way, have you read what I sent?" Looking at Philemon, Jiang Hai asked with a smile.

"Something? What thing?" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Philemon was stunned for a moment, and then asked with some confusion.

"It's just a big bag of food. There's a lot of food in it, as well as some seasonings and so on. Didn't you see it?" Jiang Hai was also stunned when he heard Philemon's words. His own things had clearly been sent over and were about to be delivered. It’s been four days and it’s not here yet?

"No, I haven't seen it before!" Jiang Hai frowned slightly when he saw Philemon's expression that didn't seem to be fake.

I casually took out my mobile phone and called the courier company, only to find out that the item had indeed not been delivered yet.

"These damn guys, so slow!" After hanging up the phone, Jiang Hai frowned. After all, multinational express companies are not like they are from the same country or domestic, because they need to go through customs inspection. Look at this Can I get my stuff on a plane and send it abroad? If it’s the off-season, it would take about four or five days.

But I have been very busy recently. During the New Year and the holidays, some people abroad cannot go home. Most of the people at home will choose to send them some things. Even if they can't go home, they can still experience the taste of their hometown. no?

Therefore, this has caused an increase in the workload of the customs. Because of this, multinational express companies generally say that the delivery time is one week to half a month. It is not considered a failure to send it within half a month. Now it is Listen, Jiang Hai really can't say anything.

But when I go back to my country, I can’t just go back empty-handed!

In addition to his food, he naturally also brought back some small toys for his men.

In fact, it's not a lot of expensive things, it's more just a feeling. Apart from some food, it's mainly cigarettes and wine.

Don't think that people in the US imperialism just don't give gifts. In fact, they give gifts when they should. They just give gifts to officials. If they are not particularly, special, close friends, officials don't dare to accept them, but ordinary people When visiting each other, gifts are always given. For example, if someone has a birthday party at his or her home, or it is just an ordinary gathering, they will give gifts. People from the United States give the most things. Yes, it's a red wine shelf. As the sky can tell, Jiang Hai doesn't have that much red wine at home. In addition to the red wine shelf and the like, some homemade biscuits, cakes, etc. are also good gifts.

It's not about how expensive it is, but more about your sincerity. Compared with sending money in China, it's not that direct here.

Jiang Hai has been here for less than half a year, and he has a general understanding of the customs of the American emperor.

So when he came back this time, although he didn't drink much liquor, he still bought some specially. Regardless of whether these people drank or not, this was his own wish, and these people would be very happy if they accepted it.

But now if I come back first and the gift doesn't arrive, it will indeed be a bit abrupt.

"No choice, let's go buy some gifts first!" Seeing the highway leading directly to Winthrop in front of him, Jiang Hai sighed, turned the steering wheel, and ran towards the city of Boston. Seeing Jiang Hai's actions, this Philemon beside him was also startled.

"Boss, aren't you going home? Why are you going to Boston?" Looking at Jiang Hai, Philemon asked a little strangely.

"The gifts I bought for you have not yet flown over from China. It will take at least a week until those things arrive, so I will go and get some gifts for you now." Jiang Hai did not hide the truth from Philemon, but He said it directly.

"Hey, what kind of gift is not a gift? It will be the same if you give it to us in a few days." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Philemon here waved his hand. He really didn't care much about this. Recently, the snow in the manor has also They are almost done, but they are very busy every day.

"Okay, I have the final say on this matter." After hearing Philemon's words, Jiang Hai waved his hand and interrupted him. As soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the car sped towards the North City of Boston. Boston doesn’t really understand.

But after all, he has been here many times, and he still knows the general situation here, especially one store.

A store let him buy a lot of local chickens. Who knows why he got so obsessed with it in the first place? He couldn't cook chickens, so what was the use of buying so many chickens with feathers? I also stewed chicken with mushrooms. The stew is quite delicious, but if you don’t know how to cook it, what’s the point of saying it?

Jiang Hai still keeps those chickens. Although he didn't stew the mushrooms, at least it solved his problem of eating eggs.

As for that store, he had a deep memory. After turning a corner, he came to the store that had once cheated him.

Although they are in the United States, it is obvious that this family still follows the old etiquette in China. On the door of the small supermarket, there are two huge blessing characters posted upside down. According to the old man's words, this is called blessing.

In addition to blessings, there is also a couplet posted in front of the door here, with two strings of lanterns hanging on both sides of the horizontal scroll, which looks very festive. (To be continued.)
