Chapter 962 Happy Chinese New Year

Chapter 960 Happy Chinese New Year
After eating, the group rested for a while, then came out from the south gate and came to Central Park in New York.

It’s actually not bad here, it’s quiet amidst the hustle and bustle, a quiet park surrounded by a bustling community, with large and small lakes and forests distributed in the park.

Waterfowl play in the Great Lakes, and there are green lawns under the tall oak forests. There are also zoos, sports venues and recreational facilities. It is one of the largest man-made natural landscapes in the world and is known as the back garden of New York.

A group of people took a walk to the Central Park Zoo, just in time for the last sea lion show in the afternoon.

The zoo area is divided into sea lion performance area, polar area and rainforest area.

The sea lion is also a super smart and funny animal. A group of children found it very fun to watch the smooth and shiny sea lions swimming and playing in the pool through the glass of the aquarium.

Wang Meixian pointed to a sea lion lying on its back lying motionless on the bottom of the water: "Uncle Erpi, what happened to that sea lion? Could it be dead?"

If it weren't for Li Junge's keen six senses to detect the subtle rhythm of the sea lion's body, he might even think that the sea lion is a dead sea lion.

But he couldn't figure out what was going on now: "Uh... definitely not dead, or... fell asleep?"

Another sea lion swam into everyone's sight, then suddenly closed its eyes and relaxed its limbs, like a rubber water bag, fluttering and sinking to the bottom of the water.

Wang Meixian exclaimed: "Oh, this one is too!"

Li Junge can be sure this time: "It's a nap! I'll wake up in a while."

Wang Meixian put a smiling face on the glass and looked worriedly at the two motionless sea lions. The posture of the rear end was even more weird. When it sank to the bottom, the back half of its body just rested on a rock at the bottom of the water, and it hung there in an upside-down posture.

At this time, a few small fish were suddenly dropped from the water above, and the staff started to feed them, and the two sea lions came to life in an instant as if they had been electrified, and swam towards the food at high speed.

Wang Meixian took two steps back with a cry of "Ouch" in fright, and then giggled: "Sea lions are really fun!"

After the sea lion area is the polar area. The little penguins are not afraid of people at all. They live in the simulated Antarctic Circle and are only separated from the visitors by a layer of glass. It seems that they can touch this cute little thing living on the top of the earth with their hands.

For a while they clumsily patted their short feet and squeezed together for a meeting, and for a while they scrambled to jump into the water like some baby appeared in the water.In Li Junge's words, if the sea lions are a group of funny people, then the penguins are a group of crazy people.

The biggest selling point is the polar bear. The snow-white polar bear walks in the simulated valley water, and the children look in through the safety glass.

Many foreign parents brought their children to watch here.

Listening to the dolls chanting "Po... Po... Polar Bear" in a childish voice, Ah Yin and Liang Huili were almost cut off. They even ignored the polar bears and squatted down to interact with the dolls.

The image and temperament of the two are both excellent, and the parents are also open-minded. Some parents even invited the two of them to take a photo with their children.

Two parents also picked up the parenting book with them. In the eyes of foreigners, Orientals don’t look old. They just feel that it’s not easy to bring up such a large family of children.

It made the two of them blush, these foreigners are too lacking in vision.

Wang Meixian gave Li Junge a headache, but she has her own unique charm among children, and she became the leader among several half-grown foreigner children in a short while.

So the parents of foreigners decided to go to the rainforest area together with Lijiagou and his party.

Children in Lijiagou are very familiar with this place. Various tropical plants and flowers are planted, among which there are not a few orchids. The glass delivery rooms in Lijiagou Orchid Farm are even larger than this place. , the flowers are even more beautiful than here.

Only now do foreigners know that these people are not natives of New York, but tourists from China, and they can’t help being surprised. Isn’t it true that a family in China can only have one child?

When Li Junge explained it clearly to them, the foreigners were even more surprised. Are you from the hometown of purple cat?Ah, you didn't come here for the Oscars, did you? "Big Purple Cat" was nominated for an Oscar for Best Documentary Feature, and the kids and we all loved it.

So Li Junge had no choice but to do some publicity, and then dug out some cartoon-designed keychains and other trinkets from the backpack, and gave one to each foreigner child.

Finally, I took a group photo with all the parents who were surprised and inexplicable, and everyone guessed that they broke up and said goodbye.

On the way back, Li Junge laughed so hard that he told a fox who had stolen a chicken: "I never thought that the title of Bawangxiao's discoverer would be quite easy to use abroad..."

Find a steak shop to treat the kids to a steak meal, and the kids are exhausted, so I put them to bed early.

The next few days will be experience activities in New York City, the Metropolitan Museum, the Museum of Natural History, the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty on Manhattan Island, and the cultural experience will be jazz, Broadway opera, Times Square, Rockefeller Center...

There are also several big cities along the way to the north, arriving in the Great Lakes area and then turning back.

Next is a trip to the family farm in Long Island, where Li Junge, A Yin, and Liang Huili studied in depth, while the children experienced milking, cutting alfalfa, feeding cows, and tending fruit trees...

According to Li Junge, farm work trains people, and you, Uncle Billy, are like a group of child laborers, just work hard to squeeze them out.

Uncle Billy's face turned pale with fright, Er Pi, don't talk nonsense!This is the little guest who came to experience life, oppressing child labor, that is a serious crime!
In such a place, Wang Meixian is like a fish in water, and found business opportunities in minutes. Grandpa Billy, can we use business as an OEM?

Old Billy liked this group of kids with quick hands and feet but not squeamish, plus Ayin's Fussen ham bonus, he agreed with a big wave of his hand.

So Wang Meixian asked Li Junge to borrow [-] US dollars, [-] US dollars will be used as the venue equipment rental fee to Billy in the future, and [-] US dollars will be used to buy raw materials.

Then in the small market, apart from popcorn, salted peanuts, spiced beans, and small lunch boxes of miscellaneous grains were sold by the children of Lijiagou.

Old Billy is bubbling with joy, this has brought new business opportunities to our farm!Those unqualified small potatoes and small sweet potatoes that could only be fed to cows in the past, boiled and put together a box of peanuts, add a steamed sausage or a piece of steamed bacon, some vegetables, squeeze some salad dressing, and insert a toothpick. Where is the reason for exchanging money?
This is much more cost-effective than selling roasted sausages. This little girl from Lijiagou is simply a business genius!

So Wang Meixian found Old Billy again, do you want to learn?Then send two people to help us. In the morning we will personally guide, and in the afternoon let them borrow our booth to practice, okay?
So Old Billy's [-]-dollar rental fee was taken back by Wang Meixian as a staff training fee and a second rental fee for the venue.

During the three-day experience, the children sold food in the morning, went to the pier to watch the boats in the afternoon, went to the fish market to watch the auction of big fish, and went to Long Island to pick up shells and play with sand.

Three days later, when the accounts were settled, a group of children earned less than two thousand dollars.

Li Junge was so angry that the idea of ​​selling Sichuan snacks I thought of outside the gate of Columbia University was actually used by you here first!
Wang Meixian and the kids giggled: "The old beauties earn so much money, have they never eaten anything good? A healthy, balanced and non-fried concept makes them spend a lot of money... …Uncle Erpi won’t let us eat junk food, this time we have money, go back to New York and eat McDonald’s..."

But when they returned to New York, the kids still didn't eat McDonald's, because the New Year's Eve was here, and Li Junge asked Shirly and Alice to take them to experience the Spring Festival abroad.

The place with the strongest Chinese New Year flavor abroad is naturally Chinatown.

As soon as I arrived at Lijunge in Chinatown, I laughed. This place is simply an old county town in traditional characters.

It is not quite accurate to say that the old county is, at least many of the buildings are bright red and green, which is a bit eye-catching as the costume of the Lijiagou folk performance.

There is a constant stream of people with yellow skin and dark eyes, who speak Cantonese, Hokkien, Taiwanese, and Mandarin...

A statue dressed in official costumes of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties stood at the intersection, looking into the distance with his hands behind his back, with a heroic look on his face. When he walked in and read the written description, Humen sells cigarettes, the forest is slow!

The taste of the new year is stronger than that in China. There are dragon dancers, lion dancers, those dressed as the God of Wealth, the God of Fortune, and the Yangko dancers. There will be a float with a certain chamber of commerce written on it, and a pair of Yangko dances or lantern parades for a while. Or a certain chamber of commerce.

All kinds of colorful curtains, couplets, firecrackers, lanterns and other decorations were hung up by the shops along the street, which was very lively.

There are quite a few foreigners, most of whom are carrying digital cameras and taking photos everywhere, as if they were tourists from outside.

Li Junge bought a hat for each of the children and put it on their heads to meet the occasion. There are God of Wealth, God of Fortune, Master Rabbit, and Tiger, which is also festive.

After a while, a big dragon came over, and countless merchants rushed out with colored crackers in their hands, and slammed them at the dragon lantern, causing colorful confetti to fly all over the sky.

Shirly and Alice also clamored for hats, so Li Junge had no choice but to buy one for each of the two sisters, one with a red pompom head and one with two trembling official wings protruding from the back.

There are also countless TV reporters interviewing on this street.

There are more than a dozen dolls, four beauties, and a young guy in Li Junge's group, which is quite strange, and a reporter soon came over.

"Hello, are you Chinese?"

The two younger sisters led a group of children dancing and stealing the scene in the background, and Li Junge answered in the front: "Yes."

"Then where are you from?"

"Oh, we are from Shuzhou, Lijiagou, and we brought our children to study here."

"Ah Lijiagou, I know that the Spring Festival atmosphere in your place is also very strong. How do you think it compares with your place?"

"Well, the flavor of the New Year is quite strong. I feel that the atmosphere here is similar to that of my hometown. However, we have splashing water since the sixth day of the junior high school. It is to use molten iron to hit the sky. I am afraid that it will not be allowed here..."

"Uh, well, what do you want to say to the people back home at this moment?"

"What are you talking about? Just don't worry, the children are very good when they come out, so don't worry about the elders in the village. Oh, by the way, children, what do you want to say to them?"

A group of children and two sisters rushed over and shouted a bunch of titles in a mess, and finally unified: "Happy Chinese New Year!"
