Chapter 1559: Respect Your Grandfather
Xiao Peng's knife strike terrified everyone—what Texan didn't grow up with guns and knives? They didn't know what knives could do. To plunge into such a thick tabletop, sinking right into the handle, required more than just the sharpness of the knife; the most crucial element was strength!
The scene was completely silent, with only the sound of people gasping for air.
"What...what are you going to do?" Chris Ziegler began to stutter.
Xiao Peng said, "I just said, shout 'You are a pig' three times so that everyone can hear you and you can leave."
Chris Ziegler turned around and shouted to the people in the bar: "Hey, did you hear that? This yellow guy is being so presumptuous here!"
Then the bar girl said, "Chris, shut up! You're the only one being so rude here! Shout 'Chris Ziggler is a pig' three times and get out! Can't you see you've become a laughing stock?"
Chris Ziegler was stunned when he heard this. He noticed everyone in the bar was looking at him strangely, and he knew he had messed up. He gritted his teeth and shouted three times, "I'm a pig! I'm a pig! I'm a pig!" Then he turned and started to walk out.
After reaching the door, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Xiao Peng: "Where are you from?"
"Daxia, what's wrong?" Xiao Peng replied.
Chris Ziegler snorted coldly: "Huh? I thought you were from Japan!"
Xiao Peng got angry when he heard this: "Who the hell are you scolding?"
After saying that, he grabbed the knife on the table and wanted to throw him away, but the knife stabbed him too deep, so Xiao Peng picked up the table and the knife with one hand.
Bruch was shocked when he saw this and quickly held Xiao Peng down: "Boss, please calm down! Get the hell out of here! Don't stay here!"
His next words were directed to Chris Ziegler.
Chris Ziegler was also shocked. What the hell was going on? Why did he just go berserk over a disagreement?
He hurriedly opened the door and ran out of the bar.
Bruch said: "Boss, it's not worth it for such a person!"
Charles also came over: "Dude, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Peng took a deep breath and adjusted his mood. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I lost control a little bit just now. Madam, I will compensate for the damage."
After hearing this, the bar owner put the shotgun back under the counter - she had taken the gun out immediately, she is really worthy of being a Texan.
"This is considered as compensation of two hundred US dollars!" the proprietress said directly.
Bruch walked over and took out five hundred dollars and handed it to the boss lady: "I'm sorry, my boss is not usually like this. The guy just mentioned something that made him feel uncomfortable."
"Boss?" The proprietress looked at Bruch and then at Xiao Peng, then took out a few bottles of beer and placed them on the table. "Here, treat your boss to a few drinks. Nothing calms people down more than a couple of sips."
After thanking him, Bruch walked over to Xiao Peng with a beer.
Xiao Peng didn't waste any words. He took a sip and said to Charles, "Come on, continue playing billiards."
Charles was stunned: "Where are they?"
He was talking about those girls.
After hearing this, Xiao Peng turned around and looked at the girls and said, "Excuse me, ladies. I'm not in a good mood right now. If you need anything from me, please tell me directly. If not, just have a few drinks and have some fun. It's all on me. I want to play billiards to calm down first, okay?"
Several girls were frightened by Xiao Peng's previous move and nodded hurriedly, "No problem, you can play first."
Xiao Peng wanted to play billiards, but Bruch wasn't there. He could indirectly inquire about Xiao Peng's identity, right? Didn't he hear Bruch call him "Boss"? It seemed the two had made the right choice this time.
Xiao Peng set up the ball and said to Charles, "I'll tee off?"
Charles shook his head: "Let me tee off. Otherwise I won't even have a chance to play."
Xiao Peng smiled.
Charles's ball didn't pocket after he teeed off. He looked at it with a look of disappointment. He picked up the beer beside the pool table, took a sip, and said, "Xiao, you know what? My grandfather went to Daxia."
"Oh?" Xiao Peng pocketed ball number one and said, "Your grandfather? He must be quite old, right? When did he go to Daxia?"
Charles said, "Well, my grandfather served under Chennault. He even shot down seventeen Japanese fighter planes in Daxia. My family's current farm was purchased by my grandfather after he returned in 1942."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng stopped hitting the ball and picked up the beer bottle: "Cheers to the Flying Tigers, and to your grandfather!"
Charles and Xiao Peng clinked the bottles together. This time, Xiao Peng didn't hesitate and drank the beer in one gulp.
He respected Charles' grandfather from the bottom of his heart. As for the reason? It was not because he was a member of the Flying Tigers, nor because he served under Chennault, but because he was an American who returned in 1942.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the United States was an ally of Daxia and provided Daxia with a large amount of manpower and material support. Regardless of which party they supported at the time, they did make a significant contribution to the cause of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. This is a history that cannot be erased.
What they are best known for is the "Flying Tigers" led by Claire Lee Chennault. They have appeared in countless film and television works and are also the spokespersons for the sincere help of the Americans to China in the eyes of public intellectuals.
They did attack Japan, but they did even more evil things during the civil war!
Sometimes I think some people in China are really not good enough.
The Americans' most adept method of dismantling a nation is to attack its ideology. The former Soviet Union collapsed due to ideological collapse and unstable public sentiment. They've also used this tactic on Daxia. Since the 1990s, Daxia has had a large number of American sycophants. On the one hand, they nitpick faults against domestic leaders, heroes, and revolutionary martyrs, proving them to be vulgar, and on the other hand, they meticulously glorify and fabricate the heroic deeds of negative historical figures. Chennault and his Flying Tigers are a prime example. Thanks to their efforts, Chennault has been erected across Daxia, along with statues, monuments, and memorials. In the eyes of ordinary Daxia citizens, he has become a "true hero."
What is actually happening about Chennault and his 'Flying Tigers'?
Xiao Peng commented with just two words: Haha.
What Charles said just now indicated that his grandfather returned to the United States in 1942, which means that his grandfather did not participate in the civil war, so Xiao Peng sincerely toasted him with this bottle of wine.
If he hadn't explained this, let alone a toast, Xiao Peng couldn't guarantee that he could resist giving him a bottle of wine.
