Chapter 1534 Here are some things to note
Jimmy Chalmers arranged for Xiao Peng and his group to live in a two-story villa complex with six other villas near Winsor Lake Park. The scenery was breathtaking, and the villa complex, built on the lakefront, covered approximately 1,700 square meters. Because of its proximity to the lake, the temperature was much lower than in the city. While still hot, it was much more comfortable than in the city—in wealthy areas, living conditions were paramount.
There is a swimming pool and a garage here, and Jimmy Chalmers also considerately arranged two Mercedes-Benz Gs for them to use for travel.
But trouble arose when Chalmers took them to exchange their driver's licenses.
This Lone Star State is sometimes really frustrating. When they saw Xiao Peng and knew that he was from Da Xia, the first thing they told him was that Da Xia driver's license could not be used here.
A Chinese driver's license is definitely not as useless as some public intellectuals claim. It can be used in many countries, and you just need to print it out. Even in most states in the United States, you can basically travel by car in the United States with a Chinese driver's license - but Texas is definitely not one of them.
This place is so 'personal'!
However, this place has its reasons for being so unique: after all, Texas is second only to California among all the states in the United States. If it were an independent country, its GDP would rank among the top ten in the world!
Having money means confidence!
But Xiao Peng was holding a French driver's license! Damn, this can be used here! When the vehicle management office staff saw Xiao Peng holding out his French driver's license, they complained that Xiao Peng didn't take it out earlier, wasting her time and affecting her work efficiency.
Damn, Xiao Peng really wants to slap her in the face - your work efficiency is almost the same as the sloth in "Zootopia" and you still say I'm wasting your time?
I wonder if people will become irritable in such hot weather?
But this staff member is a fat black woman who weighs at least 240 pounds. Forget it. It’s not easy for her to be alive. Maybe one day she will fall to death from the bed.
Anyway, you can drive yourself here now.
After Chalmers sent them back to the villa, he politely said goodbye and left his phone number, telling Xiao Peng that he could call him for any matter, as his phone was on 24 hours a day.
Look at the way he does things, he doesn't make people feel too enthusiastic nor too indifferent, he strikes the right distance!
After assigning the rooms, Xiao Peng meant for everyone to rest first, but Aisha and Kaiser couldn't sit still and went straight to the swimming pool to play - this was their first time to enjoy a private swimming pool, and they were both very excited.
Orange Gardens certainly has a private swimming pool, but wasn’t it flooded by the flood?
As for Bruch and Vanderdale? They were used to it.
"What's wrong? Are you so angry?" Xiao Peng was still deciding with Bruch and Vanderdale to take a break and go to Costco to buy some drinks when he saw Aisha and the others coming back angrily.
Elsa said angrily, "These Americans are so abominable! I'm only in a good mood now. If I were still in my old temper, I'd definitely beat them up!"
Xiao Peng asked curiously, "What happened to make you so angry?"
Kaiser replied, "Elsa was teaching me how to swim there, but a group of people from the villa next door were whistling and taking pictures, and someone even invited me to dinner!"
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "Maybe she's so beautiful that she charmed them!"
But Kaiser said, "You're not inviting me to dinner, you're inviting Aisha—and the one who invited him is also a man!"
Xiao Peng felt a chill run down his spine after hearing this. Elsa gritted her teeth and said, "Because I used to pretend to be a girl to immigrate, I can't tolerate gay behavior. I've been in countless fights just because someone called me Princess Elsa! Boss, if I wasn't afraid of getting you in trouble, I would have definitely beaten them up just now."
Bruch nodded: "Well, there has been progress."
Elsa was about to say something proud, but Bruch continued, "You know that no one can beat you with your skills."
"..." Elsa really wanted to yell at Bruch, but after thinking about it, she realized that he was the weakest person in the room!
It’s so frustrating!
At this time, Xiao Peng spoke up: "I don't think the problem lies in being gay, but in the fact that you can swim."
"Huh?" Everyone looked at Xiao Peng.
Xiao Peng said, "I talked a lot with Vincent before coming here, and I just remembered that this is a wealthy white area. Did you guys notice that just now? We basically didn't see any black people when we got here."
Everyone nodded.
Xiao Peng said, "Vincent once told me that there are three things you can't do when an American is with a black person: first, don't treat a black person to fried chicken; second, don't treat a black person to watermelon; and third, don't invite a black person to go swimming!"
Everyone had a dark look on their faces.
"Boss, what does this mean?" Bruch asked in confusion.
Aisha also said: "I am black, whether you treat me to fried chicken, watermelon or swimming, I will accept it."
Xiao Peng said: "I'm talking about the black people in America, not the black people in Europe or Africa."
"Why is this happening?" Everyone was full of doubts.
Xiao Peng explained, "They say you can't treat black people to fried chicken... because black people love fried chicken so much!"
Everyone looked upset. What kind of reason was this?
Xiao Peng explained: "During the period when black slaves were raised here, there was a law that stipulated that blacks were not allowed to raise large livestock without permission. They were not allowed to raise cattle, sheep, horses, or pigs. This was to prevent blacks from relying on livestock trading to save enough money to redeem themselves. To put it bluntly, it was to keep the slaves under control. But at that time, black slaves generally engaged in heavy physical work and had a great demand for meat, and they could not raise large livestock, so they could only raise chickens. Basically, most blacks at that time had experience in raising chickens. Over time, fried chicken became the label food for black people in the United States. If you pay attention, many Hollywood movies In films, images of Black people eating fried chicken are often depicted, often depicted as unruly and untidy, leaving a mess on the table. This irritates Black people. Who doesn't love fried chicken? But if you ask Black Americans if they like fried chicken, they often associate your question with racism. The same is true, if not worse, of watermelon. Asking Black Americans to eat watermelon is essentially racist, just as asking them to pick cotton is. Remember, cotton and watermelon were the primary occupations of slaves in the South.
Everyone suddenly realized: "So that's how it is! Then what about swimming?"
Xiao Peng spread his hands and said, "Black people in America just can't swim... Sorry, that was a little wrong. The correct statement is: about 70% of black people in America can't swim!"
"WHAT? Why so many?"
