Great Power Reclamation

Chapter 2091 Poor MPs

Other rich MPs either rent or buy so they can go to work.Many people picked the area where Underwood lived in "House of Cards" because they could walk to Congress from here.

The rent for a three-bedroom house there is more than $[-] a month, which is beyond the reach of those from modest means.

Poor MPs have all kinds of solutions to their housing problems.The most stingy ones simply live in the office.

Jason Chaffetz of Utah, for example, was 2008 years old when he was elected to Congress in 41.

He is a Mormon, the father of six children, and his wife does not work at home.It is indeed a bit tight for a member of parliament to support eight people with this salary.

On the day he reported to Congress, he took his 13-year-old daughter to a Wal-Mart supermarket, a cheap camp bed set up in the office, and made it his home.

Someone once asked him what it was like to live in an office, and he replied with a smile: "Of course it's different from home."

Another time, someone went to see Congressman Rohrabaker from California at his office and saw some luggage piled up on the floor.

It turned out that the congressman had a conflict with the landlord and was kicked out by the landlord. He was homeless for a while and had to sleep in the office.

As for bathing, they use the bathrooms in the congressional sports facilities. There are about forty congressmen living in the office, accounting for seven to eight percent of the congressional population.

A group of congressmen came up with another way: buy a yacht and live on it.

Yachts in the United States are not expensive, and old ones can be bought for as little as $[-].

These councilors parked their yachts on the pier and usually lived there, and they were happy to be able to go out if they were happy.

Another group of people are not so "lucky". For example, those old congressmen who have been in Washington for a long time, especially those who have stayed for decades, still want to make a nest here.

For example, the first original series "Alpha House" launched by Amazon is a political comedy that explores the crisis of middle-aged people through a political shell.
The four Republican senators were not only colleagues and political partners on Capitol Hill, they were roommates with each other — they shared an apartment in Washington.

The fact that the co-renting happened to a man in his 50s and [-]s who has an important social role is indeed incredible to the people of the country, and it also gives us a picture of the life of a senator who is not the same as Underwood.

One only needs to look at the reports of various reporters to know that the writers of the show did not exaggerate.

Not long ago, CNN reporters visited the homes of three congressmen.They are Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois, Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, and Rep. George Miller of California.

Durbin is the No. [-] Senate Democrat and Schumer is No. [-].They all belong to the most powerful small elite in the United States.And Miller is the landlord.

They have lived here together since the early 80s.Schumer lives in the living room, and Debin and Miller each have their own bedrooms.

The reporter was surprised to see that the house had been in disrepair for a long time, and it was a mess of a bachelor's dormitory, and even underwear was thrown everywhere.

The only comfortable seat in the room was an old sofa.Debin said that when his son threw the sofa into the trash, his father found it to be fine, so he picked it up and used it for more than ten years.

The refrigerator was broken and no one repaired it, and there was only a hole where the stove was.Schumer explained that there were rats there, so the furnace was dismantled to catch the rats.

Underwood in "House of Cards" actually no longer lives in his own constituency.

His wife works in the capital, and the couple don't have much connection with voters in the area.

His position in Congress brings many benefits to this constituency.This is the secret that some veteran congressmen can stay in Washington for a long time but still be elected locally.

However, most MPs still live in their constituencies.

Usually, it is not easy to meet congressmen in Washington, but the chances are much better in their constituencies.

Because after they return to the constituency, there is no pressure from Congress to meet, and the main task is to contact voters.Their houses in constituencies certainly dare not be too "divorced from the masses".

Of course, the above-mentioned things have little to do with the fourth child, he himself is a master who is not short of money.

Not long after he was elected, he bought a house there. Of course, he didn't dare to buy something too luxurious for fear of being jealous. After all, hatred of the rich exists everywhere.

After all, this is just a temporary residence, and the living facilities are just fine.Emily now lives in Washington for a long time, helping with some chores as his secretary.

And Jenny lived in Boston for a long time, helping him with the constituency.After all, the voters are his foundation.

As for Ke Xiner, the fourth child has basically cut off contact with her.It's not that the fourth child is ruthless, but that Ke Xiner is desperate for this kind of relationship that can't see the future.

Such is the case with women, their fanaticism and unfeeling are equally decisive.So once it was decided, it never appeared in the fourth child's life.

As the president of Ye Feng Angel Investment Company, she is actually very busy with her business. After getting rid of the bondage of feelings, Ke Xiner is also a very capable woman.

Compared with Cha Hongying, she is significantly more aggressive and pioneering.Because there are not many venture capital opportunities in the United States, she also focuses on Asia.So there is very little time in the US.

The fourth child was taken aback when he saw Liu Sannv when he entered the door, but he quickly realized that after calling Mei Hua, he also called Liu Sannv "Mom".

Liu Sannv's eyes suddenly became moist, she watched the birth of the fourth child, and when Mei Hua gave birth to the fourth child, she had been busy all day.

Every day during confinement, when I come home from get off work, I always make some smoothies for Plum Blossom.

Ye Wancheng is busy and doesn't take care of his family very much. During confinement, Meihua has to cook and wash diapers by herself.

There were no such things as paper diapers and diapers in those days.Basically, soft fabrics such as old autumn clothes and johns are cut into pieces and used as diapers.

Liu Sannv is like helping to serve the confinement child, so she naturally has a special affection for the fourth child, as if she were her own son.

Originally, she wanted her daughter to marry the third child, but the fourth child became her son-in-law by mistake. In fact, it was better, because she regarded the fourth child as her son anyway.

I didn't expect such a thing to happen the day before the wedding.Although the two tried their best to restore their relationship, Jingjing still didn't get over the hurdle in her heart in the end.

Liu Sannv and Mei Hua also hated men's fickleness, and Liu Sannv finally took control of her husband.But Meihua failed to do so, and even had a marriage change.

Let alone this generation, none of the sons can live a good life with their wives.

But no matter how much you complain in your heart?Looking at this group of children, the joy also comes from the heart, and this is where they are contradictory.

Wiping away her tears, Liu Sannv took the backpack from the fourth shoulder and let him sit on the sofa as if she was at home.

And the fourth child didn't feel any discomfort and let Liu Sannv take the bag and sit down, naturally like a family.

Ye Fan ran over and called out, "Dad."

Seeing his son, he stood up excitedly.When a person reaches middle age, he is actually a child, and there is no difference between a man and a woman.

Holding his son in his arms, Ye Fan twisted his body a few times in embarrassment.As a teenager, he is not used to such intimacy.

Looking at Liu Sannv, he had always wanted to take his son by his side, but the biggest resistance was Jing Jing and Liu Sannv.But what happened today?
Liu Sannv explained: "I discussed it with your mother. From now on, the child will follow you. The relationship between you and Jing Jing can be as it pleases. Mom won't force it."

The fourth child bowed deeply: "Mom, even though I do things absurdly, Jing Jing is always my favorite woman in my heart, and the door of my house will always be open to her."

In fact, the fourth child is guilty of saying this now, but Xiner can leave, but he can't leave Jenny and Emily.

The two of them are not only his women, but also his career assistants.If you really compare it with Jingjing, it's really hard to choose.

Fortunately, the two women are very ambitious, and none of them has asked him to marry him so far.Instead, he put all his heart and soul into his work.Otherwise, he really doesn't know what to do?
Ye Yuze asked at this time: "Mom asked me to arrange a school for Ye Fan, where do you think he should go?"

At their level, they naturally have the right to choose. The United States also has school district housing, and this kind of thing is not a problem for them at all.

"Brother, don't worry about the school. But the children usually live here, because I have to stay in Washington four days a week."

Ye Yuze nodded: "You don't need to tell me about this, I won't let Ye Fan go with you, the children also have a companion, why don't you just let him go to the same school as Ye Shuai?"

The fourth child thought about it and agreed. Originally, he planned to send his son to the best school, but after thinking about it, he felt that the child still needed the warmth of a family.

I usually let Ye Fan stay with my eldest brother, and he will stay here when he comes back. He can accompany the child at least three days a week.

Now that Plum Blossoms are here, they have to play for a few days, especially Liu Sannv, who hasn't been to the United States yet.

Ye Yuze wanted to take them around in person, but Meihua refused, and instead called the person in the warrior costume.

Only then did Ye Yuze remember that the company here was also run by his mother, and he would contact her regularly.That's up to her.

However, Liu Sannv lost interest after only one day of shopping. The main reason is that it is not as prosperous as in China. In addition, the food is the same, and the key point is that it is not delicious.

The girlfriends complained, and Meihua also missed Ye Wancheng, so the two old ladies returned on the third day.

The two discussed it on the plane, and seeing the appearance of the fourth child, they liked their son very much.

The next step is to think about her son quietly, and they want to encourage her to come here to watch.Anyway, I live at Ye Yuze's house, so there's no need to be embarrassed when you come.

As long as she is willing to come, the fourth child will naturally not disappear. The two of them get in touch with each other more, and their relationship will become closer.

Besides, when a person reaches middle age, many things will become bearish.It is estimated that after getting along with each other for a while, maybe they can be resurrected.

The conspiracy of the two old ladies is naturally unknown to others, but when you think about it carefully, their arrangement is really not low in IQ, and most people can't escape it.

Of course, if they no longer have that feeling, it's another matter, after all, many things cannot be controlled by others.

Back home, she quietly didn't visit them for half a month, and Liu Sannv didn't care.After all, they all lived in the rehabilitation center, and everything was served.

She knew that her daughter was annoyed with her, and thought she had sent Ye Fan away on her own initiative.Liu Sannv didn't give Jingjing a single call either, she shouldn't be cowardly in this kind of thing.

On the other hand, the old man learned how to think about his daughter, so he would say a few words when he had nothing to do.Liu Sannv ignored him.

With the rapid increase of the development zones around Junken City, Junken City has become more and more prosperous.After all, there is Junken Electromechanical, the top player in the chip industry, and derivative companies have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

In addition to the giant warrior car, the accessories needed every year are massive.Many accessories with very low technical content are purchased outside.

Now that there are surrounding areas, naturally I don't want to be so troublesome, after all, the near water and the platform first get the moon.Coupled with the proximity, quality issues can be guided at any time, so there is no need to run outside.

In fact, the most depressing thing about this matter is that Wang Lecheng, who was originally the Army Reclamation City of the Corps, was picked by Wang Shuqin because of its geographical location.

Aimati was naturally happy from ear to ear. He didn't expect to pick up a treasure, and it was a member of the Corps. How long has it been here?Issues such as housing and the economy have been greatly improved.

It has to be said that local development is inseparable from talents, just like doing scientific research.

This series of changes has been witnessed by ordinary people, and they naturally know the person who led all these changes: the name "Wang Shuqin" will be remembered by everyone forever, just like her political achievements.

It's a pity that Wang Shuqin had just finished her job report at this time, but the news she got was that she was going to be transferred from northern Xinjiang and promoted to a more important position.

To be honest, she was reluctant to leave, but the organizational decision could not be changed, so she had to wait for the final result in the capital.

After hearing the news, Aimati lost control of her emotions. She called the relevant department and asked her to retire and let Wang Shuqin take her place.

It's just that he really can't decide all this. A month later, Wang Shuqin officially received the transfer order to be transferred to the southern Fujian Province as the leader.

When saying goodbye, Emma burst into tears, holding Wang Shuqin's hand unwilling to let go.

Wang Shuqin was also in tears. She has not finished many things here, and there are still some plans to be made, but all of this can only be left to the successor.

Ye Yuze was also a little surprised when he received the call. He also felt that Wang Shuqin should not leave, but what could he do?

Fortunately, the order from above came down soon, and the person who replaced Wang Shuqin turned out to be Ye Yuji.

This news made many people feel lucky. After all, this is also a Beijiang doll, and that string of resumes is so impressive.

However, there are also some people who are worried. No one dares to deny Ye Yuji's profound theoretical knowledge, but theory and practice are two concepts after all. Can she do it?After all, she is still so young.
