Mister?” “先生？先生？” The boys called him several, Thomas has gotten back one's composure slowly, stares the under shed saying: „Sorry, what matter has to help you?” 男孩叫了他好几声,托马斯缓缓回过神,愣了下开口说道:“抱歉,请问有什么事情能够帮到你的吗？” „Yes, our first coming, wants to help under the introduction.” The Han Xuan politeness said. “是的,我们第一次过来,想让人帮忙介绍下。”韩宣礼貌道。 Thomas raised the head to have a look at Han Xuan several, the clothes to look like several points of appearance behind actually, what a pity is the Chinese. Store taking advantage of clothes, so long as does not rip the label, but can also draw back again, who knows their anything background, but here United States, is dominated United States of pyramid peak by the Caucasian . 托马斯抬头看看韩宣身后几位,穿着打扮倒是像几分模样,可惜是华人。商店借衣服只要不撕标签,还能再退回去,谁知道他们什么来头,这里可是美国,由白人把持金字塔顶端的美国.. Thinks that Thomas started to have several points to despise, he was not the young fellow who these just had/left the university. Saw that seems like the rich and powerful people then to throw, the life already and wiped to extinguish his ideal naively. 想着想着托马斯就开始带了几分轻视,他不是那些刚出大学的毛头小子。见到个貌似富豪便扑上去,生活早就把他的理想和天真抹灭。 In this country, the Caucasian wants big over a hundred times the opportunity that the Chinese is more successful, has that time, might as well looks for the new prey. 在这个国家,白人比华人成功的机会要大上百倍,有那时间,还不如物色新的猎物。 „Can make him help you, I have other things to do.” Side along with pointing at referred to is standing the youth, the Thomas light opens the mouth. “可以让他帮你,我还有其他事情要做。”随手指了指旁边站着的青年,托马斯淡淡开口。 Finishing speaking. Saw that an old man walks, rushes to move forward to meet somebody, is away from puts out a hand far away, called out kindly: „Mr. Jeremiah! Here, do you still remember me? Thomas. Previous time Thomas who helps your arrange/cloth show/unfolds!” 话音刚落。见到个老头走过来,赶忙迎上去,隔着老远伸出手,亲切叫道:“杰里迈亚先生！这边,你还记得我吗？托马斯啊。上次帮你布展的托马斯啊！” Han Xuan thinks that he saw the star, therefore so will be excited, looks at the past following the direction that Thomas spoke, what surprise that named Jeremiah was an old man. 韩宣以为他看到了明星,所以才会这么激动,顺着托马斯说话的方向看过去,意外发现那个名叫杰里迈亚的是个老头。 Han Xuan had also visited him from the helicopter of low-altitude flying. Was a moment ago that in the wharf, the old man arms select the girl high. The stature is not worse than the model, stands side Jeremiah, must be higher than a head compared with him, this is she has not deliberately put on the result of high-heeled shoes. 韩宣还曾经从低空飞行的直升机上看过他。就是刚才在码头上那位,老头怀里高挑女郎。身材不比模特差,站在杰里迈亚身边,比他要高出一个头,这还是她刻意没穿高跟鞋的结果。 Is speaking in a coaxing voice probably spinelessly by the old man. Is saying anything low voice, the coat neckband arrives at the navel, the passer-by passes through the breeze that brings, as if can lift that matter thin cotton material. 正嗲声嗲气像是没骨头靠在老头身上。小声说着什么,上衣领口开到肚脐眼,路人走过带起的微风,似乎都能把那层薄布料掀开。 The seventh feeling of man is not worse than the sixth sense sometimes, Han Xuan suddenly feels a cool feeling, turns head rapidly, really discovered that Anya is staring at him, Anya transfers the look calmly, probably is sizing up the distant place billboard. 男人的第七感有时不比第六感差,韩宣突然感到一阵凉意,迅速回头,果然发现安雅在盯着他,安雅若无其事转开眼神,像是在打量远处广告牌。 Old Man Han is listening to Thomas to say this name time, the complexion is then stiff. 韩老爷子在听托马斯说出这个名字时候,脸色便僵硬起来。 That person who the discovery also really thinks, snort/hum the sound, did not attend to the bystander saying layer on layer/heavily: „Despicable fellow, why you have not gone to see God!” 发现还真是自己想到的那个人,重重哼了声,不顾外人说着:“卑劣的家伙,为什么你还没去见上帝！” This has been cursing him dead nakedly. 这已经是在赤裸裸咒骂他去死了。 Jeremiah beard is gray, the head wears a sola topi, the body only put on the board shorts and short sleeve, just received a lot of air/Qi in the wharf, waving is making Thomas get out of the way. 杰里迈亚胡子花白,头上戴着顶遮阳帽,身上只穿了沙滩裤、短袖,刚刚在码头受了一肚子气,正挥手让托马斯走开。 Hears old gentleman's these words, looks angrily at immediately, finds Old Man Han in this, plays the flavor: „Originally is you, long time no see.” 听见老爷子的这句话,立马怒视过来,瞧见韩老爷子在这,玩味道:“原来是你啊,好久不见了。” „Right, these money thank you, otherwise my company will not develop that quickly, haha!” “对了,谢谢你的那些钱,不然我的公司不会发展那么快,哈哈！” Han Xuan has not looked at the grandfather complexion is so ugly, does not know the reason , is quite uncomfortable to Jeremiah. 韩宣还没看过爷爷脸色这么难看,不知道缘由,却也对杰里迈亚相当不爽。 Jeremiah is hugging the girl, is showing off to her loudly: „Do you know the group? Is his company, I considered him in the early 80's to the court, this Mr. Han paid 7 million dollars to me generously, otherwise you are impossible to cross such comfortably.” 老杰里迈亚搂着女郎,大声向她炫耀着:“你知道集团吗？就是他的公司,我在八十年代初期向法庭告了他,这位韩先生慷慨向我支付了七百万美金,不然你也不可能过得这么舒服。” Said that twisted under the girl cheek, looks to Old Man Han, in the look has the taunt. 说完拧了下女郎脸蛋,看向韩老爷子,眼神里带着嘲讽。 The old gentleman was angrier, blew Jeremiah: „You will pay the price!” 老爷子更加愤怒,刮了眼杰里迈亚:“你会付出代价的！” Han Xuan is perplexed, was being drawn by the grandfather, goes to the organizer to be at the office building that stood in the entrance, the old gentleman deeply attracted several tones, finally restored in the past appearance, turned head to say to them: „I under the registration, took the numberplate to come out, sorry, was rude a moment ago.” 韩宣不明所以,被爷爷拉着,前往主办方所在的办公楼,站在门口,老爷子深吸了几口气,终于恢复往常的模样,扭头对他们道:“我去登记下,拿了号码牌就出来,抱歉,刚才失态了。” Madame Cecilia waves the hand saying: „All right, who will have the person who does not like, not?” 塞西莉亚夫人摇手道:“没事,谁都会有不喜欢的人,不是吗？” „Right!” The boy grandfather returned to a smile, rubbed the Han Xuan head, the mouth is saying: „Brings Anya to go to there to eat a thing, at noon the person are many, possibly unbearably busy......” “对！”男孩爷爷回了个笑脸,揉揉韩宣脑袋,嘴里说着:“带安雅去那里吃点东西,中午人多,可能忙不过来……” When he passes through the gate, Han Xuan looks to own grandfather. 等他进门,韩宣看向自己外公。 Guo Muzhou seems prepared early, opens the mouth saying: „At that time still in the initial steps, being far from the scale is now big, had time ordered a number of electrical appliances from Monroe Trading Company, right, was Jeremiah's company.” 郭穆州似乎早有准备,开口道:“当时还在起步阶段,远远没有现在规模大,有次向门罗贸易公司订购了一批家电,对了,就是杰里迈亚的公司。” „At that time the household electrical appliances sale was very hot, your grandfather pulled out a big preparation to expand the fund of shop front, hopes that caught the bandwagon to make money, contacted with Jeremiah through the middle man, in his hand had the powers of sale of several electric appliance brand business.” “那时候家用电器销售很火爆,你爷爷抽了一大笔准备扩张店面的资金,希望搭上顺风车赚点钱,通过中间商联系到杰里迈亚,他手里有几个电器品牌商的销售权。” Guo Muzhou thinks lets he uncomfortable matter, exhales the tone slightly, that little while two family members were just engaged, clarity that very therefore he understands, continued to tell. 郭穆州想到了让他不舒服的事情,微微呼出口气,那会儿两家人刚定亲,所以他了解的很清楚,顿了顿继续讲述。 „After paying advance payment, Monroe trade truly sent the first batch of cargos to come, the temporary arrangements in a warehouse, never expected that caught fire in midway that night, but also burnt two companies to send the security of convoy.” “在付了定金之后,门罗贸易确实发了首批货物过来,中途临时安排在一家仓库里,没想到当天晚上就着火了,还烧死了两位公司派去押运的保安。” „Your grandfather thinks that the cargo has not connected with itself not to need to take responsibility, is willing to settle down 200,000 US dollars compensation to each insurance, 80 years of money also not like fierce that such present depreciates, what done was shows extreme tolerance.” “你爷爷认为货物没有交接自己不用负什么责任,愿意给每个保安家里二十万美元补偿,80年钱还不像如今贬值的这么厉害,做的算是仁至义尽了。” „Then?” “然后呢？” Anya hear of being enthralled, did not say these words voluntarily, afterward rushed to cover to be quiet, the action was too disrespectful. 安雅听的入神,不自觉说出这句话,事后赶忙捂住嘴,刚才的举动太失礼了。 Guo Muzhou shakes the head with a smile, expressed that are not related: „Monroe Trading Company sees him not to pay tail, submitted the lawsuit application like the Los Angeles federal court, originally should be able to win, but Jeremiah stated categorically, is your grandfather makes the securities be admitted to the warehouse, keeps a night of guard.” 郭穆州笑着摇摇头,表示没关系:“门罗贸易公司见他不愿支付尾款,像洛杉矶联邦法庭递交了诉讼申请,本来应该能够胜诉的,不过杰里迈亚一口咬定,是你爷爷让保安们住进仓库里,留夜看守。” „Also bribes their family members, said that your grandfather had once telephoned, exhorted two securities in the evening secure shackles the good gate, then the matter changes was serious.” “还买通他们家人,说你爷爷曾经打过电话,嘱咐了两位保安晚上安锁好门,这下事情就变的严重了。” „Assist in trying a case court most people stand nearby Jeremiah, not only asks for your grandfather to compensate the cargo to lose, but also in two staff families/home that wanted him to pay dead respective 1.5 million US dollars pension, such unfair trial, passed in the Los Angeles federal court unexpectedly, appealed again still maintains the original sentence .”( To be continued ~ ~) “陪审法庭大多数人站在杰里迈亚一旁,不仅要求你爷爷赔偿货物损失,还要他付给死去的两位员工家里各自150万美元的抚恤金,这么不公正的审判,居然在洛杉矶联邦法院通过了,再次上诉依然维持原判..”(未完待续~~) PS : ps: Shamelessly sought the monthly ticket and subscription .
