The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Chapter 63: Your dad is dead this time

   When everyone walked into the lobby on the first floor of the Empire State Building, they felt very good: not only because of the large space here, but also because of the red and eye-catching Chinese New Year scenery in the exhibition windows on the first floor, which is extremely festive!

   Chinese New Year is coming tomorrow.

  You need to buy a ticket to visit the observation deck on the 86th or 102nd floor of the Empire State Building, and I didn't expect that this would require a security check.

   The last time Zhang Nan came here, he was awkward, and he waited a long time for the security check, and even the camera tripod was not allowed! There is no problem with the camera.

   After 9/11, has the tripod become an offensive weapon?

   In fact, this is not the case, just because the tripod will take up too much space during shooting and there are too many people visiting, it is inconvenient to get to the top of the building and it will affect other people, so it is forbidden to bring it up to the 86th floor.

The ticket was prepared by the travel company that arranged the itinerary. When passing the security check and waiting for the elevator on the second floor, Jon Ballons came in behind Zhang Nan and said: "The status of the Chinese in the United States has improved, and The influence of Chinatown is also increasing day by day. I didn't expect the Empire State Building to have a Chinese New Year setting."

   "Hehe, yes, the influence of the Chinese in the United States will become greater and greater in the future."

   "That's for sure! Just look at the overseas students who come to our United States to study from you. Their enthusiasm for studying and working hard will understand that the rise of China is a historical necessity."

   Jon is obviously not a racist, and he talked about a family secret, even John Ballons hadn't mentioned it before Zhang Nan.

   "My father participated in the Korean War. Unfortunately, he was captured by your volunteer army. But he never regarded this as a stain in his life."

   Zhang Nan heard, "Unexpectedly, we were still opponents at the beginning. But you Americans never discriminate against your captured personnel."

   "No, that's not what I meant! My father said it was shameless to be captured by Chinese soldiers, your soldiers are too powerful! Tenacious, beyond the limit of human beings!

   And after being captured, your army treated American prisoners of war even higher than their own rationing standards! This is impossible in other countries in the world! "

   Hearing this, Zhang Nan shook his head at the second half of Jon's remarks about the treatment of prisoners of war, but it was all over and he would not comment.

   "With such a tenacious and humanitarian army, such a country is great and needs to be awesome! China's rise is unstoppable!"

   Jon is very good, really good!

  Because it takes a while to line up, there are a lot of people visiting this spot. The leading comrades in front also heard the conversation here. County Mayor Li "Cracked" helped Secretary Xiang in line as an interpreter.

  It is usually the director who followed the secretary closely, but when he heard the words of the little American boss behind, the county magistrate Li became happy and took the initiative to work as an interpreter.

   Why?

   County Magistrate Li knows his ally's old foundation. After listening to this translation, Secretary Xiang laughed loudly there!

   Very happy!

   Jon felt very strange, so he asked Zhang Nan, what's the matter with that county magistrate?

  The Americans can't tell the difference between Secretary H and County Magistrate.

   "Secretary Xiang participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea at the age of 18, which is what you call the Korean-Xian-war, and your father is an old opponent!"

   Jon heard it, and said to the front of the team: "Major Xiang, my father will definitely have a nice drink with you tomorrow! After he returned to China, he has not met an old opponent of the year!"

   After translation, Secretary Xiang was happy and grinned: "Then your father is done! It was not our opponent on the battlefield more than 30 years ago, and he must be lying down on the wine table tomorrow!"

   County Magistrate Li can't translate that way, he is also smiling there.

   Jon didn't understand, he took a look at Zhang Nan.

   "Oh, he said he was very happy to have a drink with your father, but he wants Chinese wine."

   "Of course, China Moutai, last time I went to your China for a drink."

   looked at Jon, Zhang Nan said in his heart: Your father is dead this time! Secretary Xiang can kill at least two bottles by himself!

   But I didn't say, lest Old John learned that the enemy was powerful, and raised the white flag to surrender as soon as he met him.

   Finally waited for the elevator, Zhang Nan and 15 people entered together, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30... The high-speed elevator was indeed high-speed, and within 1 minute, the elevator reached the 80th floor smoothly.

   How could it be the 80th floor? Are the observation decks on the 86th and 102nd floors? The travel company bought a two-tier sightseeing pass.

   have to line up!

  From the 80th floor to the 86th floor, Nima has to take the elevator!

   But fortunately, the queue here is fast. After a while, everyone finally reached the 86th floor.

   Zhang Li pulled Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Nan, and couldn't wait to walk towards the observation deck. The result was the same as almost everyone: when he saw the scenery outside, he sighed in unison!

   "Wow! Anan, this place is so spectacular!"

   As the sun sets, the sky in New York is very clear after the snow. Standing on the viewing platform, you can see dozens of kilometers away! The huge net view of New York City!

   Except for the Twin World Trade Building not far away, they are already at the highest point of the city!

   Quickly take pictures! The director was a guest photographer, and even the Chinese-American tour guide prepared a camera. Everyone took advantage of the good light before the night, crackling and shooting!

   Take pictures alone, various group photos, plus a big group photo that is absolutely indispensable.

   County Magistrate Li was in a good mood. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com asked an American tourist on the viewing platform to help, and took the tour guide together and took a group photo of the 15-member congress.

   These photos can be viewed not only at home or in the office, but also in the county-committee-county-government archives after returning to China.

   There is a lot of wind at a height of more than 300 meters. Because of Jon’s reminder, everyone wears a lot of clothes and there is no shortage of scarves.

   If you wear less, I might freeze to death!

   After the photo was taken, everyone did not leave, because you still have to see the night view of New York. Visit the Empire State Building at this point in order to be able to watch the sunset and the night view at the same time, so that you can make a round trip.

   Viewing the night view of New York from this height is said to be more shocking than the daytime scenery!

   Zhang Nan took the hand of his sweetheart and watched the sunset side by side.

   But it was too cold soon, so run indoors!

   I was happy as soon as I entered the house. The crowd after the big group photo was originally a scattered observation deck. Everyone will be here. Director Liu still sighed with emotion: "It's really him-mother, who is so cold! More than 300 meters! The cold winter is high in the sky, with strong winds, and it is extremely cold! Too much to eat, not to eat!"

   At this time, everyone’s observation deck on the Empire State Building is not good, that is, there is no place to sit here: probably to prevent tourists from coming up, feeling that the scenery is so beautiful that they refuse to leave.

   But everyone can stand it: As for Xiao Jianan, this kid is in good spirits! In Yanxian's family, the rest days are often for the older children in the unit to take Manchenghuangshan to play, as strong as a cow!

   This little activity is trivial, that is, I always think about running outside, my sister Zhang Hui will not let go, because I am afraid that the cold wind will blow more and catch a cold.
