Chapter 325

He has always had the idea of ​​exchanging US dollars. He just wanted to make up for the dollar for nothing, and then he felt no burden in his heart. But these days his thoughts have become stronger and stronger, because Jin Yue is going to study abroad, so he has to use US dollars. You can't always bother Wang Jianxin and Wu Yifu. They are not rich themselves, so it is more appropriate to solve the problem by themselves.

"Hong, you are too cunning and too greedy! The US dollar can be exchanged on the black market, and the price is much higher. I am China Pass!" Paul was not that easy to talk to this time. Although this guy said something strange and unreliable, he learned a lot of these crooked and evil ways in China.

"No, no, no, I am a very generous landlord. Look, I didn't charge you electricity, water, coal and fire fees, garbage cleaning fees and Internet fees. You work in a telecommunications company, so you shouldn't have to pay the phone bill, right?" The original one is original. A foreigner dares to bargain with him on his territory and kill you every minute!

Hong Tao instantly mentioned the charge items with more than one slap in his fingers, and then waited for Paul to make a decision on whether to pay the US dollar according to the national foreign exchange price or choose to pay these fees.

"What is the cost of coal fire?" Paul had a carefree and hilarious appearance, but he was really unrighteous in his bones. As Hong Tao said that he had calculated by his fingers, there was a charge item that was obviously not clear.

"Hehehe, I'll just say you're still far from China. In your country, it should be called heating fees. The winter in Beijing is much colder than in Shencheng. It's probably the same temperature as Berlin. Don't you need heating and hot water?" The more detailed Paul calculated, the more relieved Hong Tao was. Those small green bills would run into his pocket, because this account was a bad account and he couldn't even calculate it himself. It would be strange if he could calculate it clearly. There was only electricity meter in the courtyard that could calculate the usage separately, and there was only one water meter, and there was no gas meter, and the Internet fee could not be calculated separately.

"Is there a discount for paying for one year in one lump sum?" Paul seemed to know that there was no heating in winter and was ready to compromise, but he was not very willing.

"The rise of 10% in a year is called inflation!" Zhang Yuanyuan stood up this time. She originally expected Paul, a big chatterer, to stay there for a few months, but now it seems that she has little hope.

After dinner, Paul proposed to go nearby to get along with the living environment. Zhang Yuanyuan said that there were still accounts to be settled, and Hong Tao said that he still had to repair the mouse and keyboard, so he shrank. As a result, Sun Lili volunteered to accompany Paul for a walk.

"It's over, it seems that you will probably have another German brother-in-law. This is not a bad thing. Compared with Chinese people, foreigners may give Lili real love. But I have to remind you that foreigners are not the same as our habits in this regard. Don't think that going to bed means taking it off. At that time, they will be even better than domestic men's ability to pick up their pants and refuse to admit their consciences. It would be too late to regret it."

Hong Tao didn't have to think about it carefully. Just a glance at Sun Lili's smiling face, she knew that she was moved. However, she did not object to Sun Lili's finding a foreign boyfriend. If she could really talk about marriage, wouldn't this just solve their historical problems? In the future, who would know their past with her foreign husbands?

"Fuck, marrying a foreigner is not waiting to suffer. At that time, Lili can't even find a place to complain. If not, she will definitely not succeed!" Unfortunately, Hong Tao's opinion was not approved by Zhang Yuanyuan. She opposed this matter, but firmly opposed it.

"Have you been to a foreign country?" Hong Tao understood what Zhang Yuanyuan was thinking. Like many Chinese people, she had a natural sense of fear of foreign countries.

Where does this feeling come from? Part of it is because of lack of understanding of foreign countries, and part of it is the government's demonized propaganda of European and American countries over the past few decades. Although it is not clear that the people of capitalist countries are living in dire straits, negative news is still reported relatively concentratedly, and there are basically no good things to mention.

"...You haven't been there either!" Zhang Yuanyuan was not fooled, but asked the same question back.

"That's why I don't object immediately. Wang Jianxin and Wu Yifu have both gone to the United States. If you want to know, you can call them and ask. Jin Yue may also go abroad to study next year. You will ask her to pay attention to you. Anyway, Lili didn't say that she would get married immediately, don't worry, just take a look and then talk about it."

Hong Tao has a little bit of say in this issue than Zhang Yuanyuan. Although he has never been abroad, he has come into contact with many foreigners since he was a child. He does not feel that there is any essential difference with the Chinese. It is a combination of good and evil. But it is not enough to convince Zhang Yuanyuan by relying on this understanding, so he used a trick to let time prove everything.

"Let Jin Yue study abroad! It's not because of me? Why did she run so far to go to school? Did she show something?" When she mentioned Jin Yue, Zhang Yuanyuan couldn't help but think of her relationship with Hong Tao, and then she became nervous all over.

"It's nothing, she wants to go there. Why tell you... She has been a good student since she was a child. She has been a class monitor for more than ten years and doesn't like doing business. She can't get good results if she doesn't have a strong connection or education. My family and I can't change it, so I can only make the idea of ​​an education. Foreign diplomas are valuable. No matter whether you have any knowledge or not, as long as you come back from studying abroad, everyone will look up to you. Isn't this a solution? Do you think I'm willing to let my wife leave across the ocean for several years!" On the issue of Jin Yue studying abroad, Hong Tao was very complicated, and half supported and half opposed. But in front of Zhang Yuanyuan, he had to show his generous side and bit his back teeth and say it nicely.

"I have a problem! She is like you, she is crazy and doesn't make money. One wants to enjoy the fun of life, and the other wants to study abroad for a bullshit career. I think it's not good to go to college, and it hurts both of you!" When talking about education and diplomas, Zhang Yuanyuan became irritable, and then she had to scold Hong Tao and vent her anger.

"Maybe, fish are looking for fish and shrimps, and turtles are looking for big turtles. The two crazy people come together and don't bother to dislike each other. They can even supervise each other when taking medicine." Hong Tao never argues with others about this matter. He thinks whatever he likes, comments on how he likes. Life is his own, and whether he is comfortable or not has a relationship with others. Didn't the ancients say that when planting crops, you can't listen to the cicadas or not, so you can plant whatever you want.

In fact, Paul is not all annoying shortcomings. Compared with Hong Tao, his advantages should be said to be quite good. For example, his living habits are very healthy, he wakes up early, goes to bed early, eats on meals, does not smoke or drinks, and does not spend money. He is also a good at working. His house is cleaned very neatly, his yard is often cleaned, and he also buys a few pots of flowers and plants, and goes to serve him when he has nothing to do.

He is also a versatile player in terms of skills, proficient in radio, computer, and driving. He is a telecom engineer hired by high salaries. In addition, he also knows carpentry skills and can make ordinary furniture by himself. According to him, it is an elective course taken when he was in middle school.

What surprised Hong Tao even more was that he was a sports strongman. He was best at mountaineering and skiing, and could also surf, sailing, golf, tennis, football, bicycles and other sports. No wonder he had a tendon and a slinging shirt.

The only thing that made Hong Tao feel relieved was that he would not fall, judo, boxing and other fighting events, so that he would feel much more at ease. Otherwise, he might not be able to beat him with his body, mainly because the gap in strength was a bit big.

In fact, from outsiders, Hong Tao and Paul look more similar. They both have good bodies, smile at everyone they see and have a broken mouth. They have strong logical thinking skills but still have a sense of humor. They are very smooth in dealing with people.

The two people are similar in skills. Hong Tao has stronger maintenance skills and Paul has more theoretical knowledge. The two of them come to Hong Tao's workshop to cooperate or discuss for a few hours. They have a variety of things, ranging from satellite reception antennas to remote controls to infrared anti-theft devices, and they are all very practical.

If you have a hobby, you can play together even more. You can’t play mountaineering and skiing professionally. Surfing, golf, tennis, etc. are limited, but swimming, cycling, and playing football is still fine. Moreover, neither of them is convinced. They often hold a gambling competition, and bets are all, ranging from a meal to a small bowl. Each has a win or a loss, no matter how good it is.

Gradually, the two of them changed from playmates and opponents to masters and apprentices. Hong Tao taught Paul to fish and play computer games; Paul taught Hong Tao to climb and online knowledge. Soon, these two people who didn't like each other at the beginning became inseparable foreign partners. As long as they were at home, they either went fishing at Houhai or flew around in Houhai or crawled around on the walls. When they were tired of tossing, they got into the workshop and whispered, and they would go to the computer room to play StarCraft and Half Life from time to time.

The enemy becomes a friend, which is not something that makes everyone happy. Zhang Yuanyuan and Sun Lili are very dissatisfied. What Zhang Yuanyuan is worried about is that Hong Tao can do anything in the past, but now there is another Paul, and its power is instantly doubled, and it will not be so easy to strictly limit it.

What Sun Lili hated is that Paul had Hong Tao as a playmate, so she didn't have enough time to spend with her. In the past, Paul would take her out for an outing on holidays, but now even if she goes there, she has to bring Hong Tao together. When she gets to the place, she either rides a bike or climbs a mountain. These are not what she likes, and she has to grit her teeth and play with her. As a result, she is so dark that she is embarrassed to go to the mall to stroll.8
