Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 9 The Inescapable Board
"Mrs. Mary, please believe me. This is definitely a printing or printing error of the textbook, or an editorial review error. In China, whether it is "Historical Records Xia Benji", "Five Emperors Benji", or "Zhuangzi ", "Lushi Chunqiu" in the records about water control, the person who organized the big project is Yu! It is absolutely impossible to be Wu!"

Carter crackled and announced a series of book titles that the two of them had never heard of, feeling a little agitated.Now, it seems that this is no longer a matter of personal face. The dignified American AP (similar to the unified examination) certification textbooks, for history, especially the part of Chinese history, whether it is a misprint or a deliberate mistake .

There is no record of distorting the water control project itself, let alone distorting and smearing.But even the key event figures can be wrong, saying that these Yankees don't pay attention to Chinese history at all, so they won't wrong him, right?
Of course, Carter is also very clear.Expecting Americans to really pay attention to and face up to Chinese history is simply not what they can do. Let alone Americans who are in a period of arrogance these days, there are not many Americans who can face up to Chinese history [-] years later.But since he was involved in this matter, whether it was to avoid embarrassing himself, or to correct some historical mistakes as much as possible, Carter had no choice but to retreat at this time. Of course, he didn't want to retreat either!

Carter, who had just graduated in his previous life, still had this strong academic spirit.What I said was right, why should I be punished?

"Carter, what you're talking about...are all Chinese historical documents? Where did you read it? I didn't realize that you are very interested in Chinese culture before?"

Fortunately, Carter's bookish spirit met Mrs. Mary.Don't look at how Carter complained about her before, but Carter also admitted in his heart that as an educator, Mrs. Mary is undoubtedly very qualified.

After listening to Carter's explanation, even though she didn't know what the books in Carter's mouth were, even though she still doubted that Carter was making up things, she didn't deny him arbitrarily, but asked patiently.

"I didn't have much interest before, but didn't I establish diplomatic relations with China this year? I became interested after seeing the news at that time. After all, they are also one of the ancient civilizations, and they are the only one that has been passed down from super ancient times to today. I'm curious why there are seven ancient civilizations in the world, but only China's cultural heritage has never been cut off."

As early as when he asked to see Mrs. Mary for justice, Carter thought of an excuse for the source of knowledge that he should not have known.When it comes to the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, the first reaction of most Chinese students is Nixon’s visit to China in 72. However, the joint communique was actually issued and diplomatic relations were formally established in January 79, which is a major event that happened not long ago this year.

Therefore, it is reasonable to be interested in China!And the description about inheritance in the latter paragraph is even more reasonable, because this paragraph is the original words written in the textbook.Even "Mediterranean", who was full of indignation because he felt fooled by the students, couldn't help frowning when he heard Carter's excuse, wondering if the textbook was really wrong. In fact, the student was right?

"Well, I admit that your explanation convinced me. But I don't know whether the person who controls the water is Wu or Yu. So let's put this question on hold for now, and then I will write to the author of the textbook to verify, and I Alumni from college, ask them to go to Chinatown in Los Angeles to find a real Chinese to verify your answer."

Mrs. Mary glanced at the upright Carter standing in front of her, and then at the hesitant "Mediterranean" before making a final decision.At this time, Carter thought that Mrs. Mary was convinced by him. He was a little happy, and was a little curious about the school Mrs. Mary graduated from. In Los Angeles, the famous one seems to be USC?
He didn't realize at all that the reason why Mrs. Mary was so easily persuaded could not be attributed to her eloquence at all.Because there is no official organization for the compilation of history textbooks in the United States, and there is no such kind of money in administrative appropriations.Usually, the selection of historical textbooks is to directly select the works of those historians and use them directly.

Works written by individuals, especially tomes such as the general history of the world.It is actually quite normal for individual errors to appear in it.Writing an online novel, even if there are some things that can't be taken into account, it will be wronged by book friends, let alone such a general history book?
"Aside from this question, Carter, is it wrong for you to sleep in class? For this, Mr. Welser punished you, is there a problem?"

It seems that there is really nothing to say?I can't really say in front of Mrs. Mary that it's a big deal for me to sleep in class, which high school student hasn't slept in class, right?
Poor Carter couldn't escape the board in the end.But fortunately, this time the corporal punishment was carried out in the principal's office, avoiding public embarrassment
"Fuck, who the hell will tell me that going to school in the United States is easier than China, and I will give him two big mouths!"

Rubbing his sore buttocks, Carter walked out of the office building cursing.This is so simple, no matter how much corporal punishment is given to students in China, at most it is punished by standing, copying a text or something, how can there be such a direct "personal attack"?What about freedom and democracy? ?
Advanced countries?That's it?That's it? ?
Ten minutes later, Carter walked into Black Bank with a dark face.Goodman, who was on the phone, caught a glimpse of Carter who came in with a dark face, hurriedly ended the phone in his hand, and quickly chased after him.

"Carter. You. What's the matter? Things are not going well at school?"

That's not right, if the matter of leaving school early was not discussed, then it is impossible for Carter to appear here at this point.

"Forget about school, I want to be quiet."

Carter grinned, gritted his teeth, and sat on the boss chair.Thanks to the soft sponge pad, the pain in the buttocks is much better, and I think I will get used to it after a while.

The mediterranean is a dog's day, and the attack is really black!A one-centimeter-thick board is really good!Even if it's not "fighting with heart", it's "fighting really"!

"Quiet? Who is Jingjing?"

Carter rolls his eyes when Goodman uncomprehendingly accepts a humorless meme.Quite a sense of frustration that after being physically traumatized, the spirit is also traumatized
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about quiet things. How about the loan? How is the progress? And the situation of withdrawing money, how much cash reserves do we have now?"

"The loan business went smoothly. Portnewt agreed to lend us US$14 at an interest rate of 65 points, Monza also agreed to borrow US$13.4 at an interest rate of 30 points, and Mackenzie Bank in Macon also agreed. He promised to lend us US$25, with an interest rate of 13.2, all for five years. These three banks have been confirmed, and another twenty banks are negotiating.”
