Duan Ying had been to New York before and had encountered taxi drivers deliberately cheating on customers, so she was deeply impressed. She wanted to stop Long Ziyou, but it was too late.
Wow, I thought this kind of cheating only happened in China. I didn’t expect that the United States, which is said to have the highest quality of citizens, would also have this kind of thing. It seems that the moon abroad is not necessarily rounder than at home! Long Zi
You sighed inwardly while quietly staring at the rearview mirror, paying attention to the black driver's expression, and found that there was indeed a hint of joy in the black driver's eyes.
Tsk, I really encountered a ripoff driver! Long Ziyou muttered depressedly.
How can he avoid being slaughtered? Long Ziyou's mind started to work. It's not that he couldn't afford the several hundred dollars in fares, but he didn't want to be slaughtered in vain. He didn't want to suffer such cowardice.
After thinking for a long time, Long Ziyou couldn't think of a way to deal with it. He found that in this unfamiliar place, there was no way to complain, and it was difficult to use violence. It was not easy to avoid being ripped off.
After a few minutes, Long Ziyou noticed that the black driver was driving around. He had a good sense of direction and found that the black driver returned to the main road after driving for two blocks. Suddenly, something moved in his mind, and he thought of something.
So he immediately took out the map of New York City bought at the airport store from his bag and marked the route taken by the driver.
At first, Duan Ying was curious about what Long Ziyou was doing. When she went over to take a look, she saw that he had marked the route taken by the black driver on the map. She still didn’t understand his purpose, so she secretly cursed in her heart: This guy
What a loss! But the black driver was in dire straits. This time he was afraid that he would have to lose his wife and lose his troops - a heavy loss.
The black driver started to take out the map and felt a little guilty. He drove around in a circle nervously. He found that the two of them didn't seem to notice anything at all. They were pointing at the tourist attractions on the map and discussing them. He became bolder and drove around in circles.
It’s also getting bigger!
When the car arrived at the gate of New York University, the amount displayed on the taxi meter was 888 US dollars, which was an auspicious number. The black driver happily turned around and said: "Dear guest, you have achieved your purpose. Shenghui US$888, but
In order to show our American hospitality, we don’t charge any change. As a guest, you only need to pay US$880.”
"Mr. Driver, the route you took is really interesting. Do all your American taxis take this route from the airport to here?" Long Ziyou did not take out his wallet to pay, but put the route map he had just drawn.
Open it to the black driver.
"Ah!" Seeing Long Ziyou meticulously writing down the streets he walked through and marking them on the map with a red pen, the black driver opened his mouth in surprise. This was the first time for someone who came to the United States.
Can you do it? What a perverted guy!
"Excuse me, Mr. Driver, how much is the current fare?" Long Ziyou asked with a half-smile.
"Here... just give me two hundred dollars," the black driver smiled bitterly, "Brother, I admit defeat, I can always give you some gas money back."
"Nonono," Long Ziyou stretched out his finger and shook his head, "Mr. Driver, I don't want to pay the fare, do you think it's okay?"
Duan Ying couldn't bear it, but was stopped by Long Ziyou's eyes.
The black driver hesitated and struggled for a while, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Brother, I completely admit defeat, you can leave."
In the United States, the penalties for taxi drivers who cheat on customers are very severe. Once a customer complains, they are likely to lose their taxi license, so black drivers dare not take this risk. You know, this is his job.
, the family’s livelihood depends on his job.
"Thank you, buddy." Long Ziyou patted the black driver on the shoulder, and then Duan Ying got out of the car.
The black driver opened the trunk and helped the two of them take out their suitcases. When he returned to the driver's seat, he found two hundred-dollar bills under the windshield. His nose immediately felt a little sour.
"Hey, buddy, you Chinese people are so good!" The black driver stuck his head out of the window and shouted to Long Ziyou and Duan Ying, who had just walked out more than ten meters away.
Long Ziyou turned around and waved to the black driver, but saw a business card flying over. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it. He took it in his hand and saw that it was a taxi business card with the black driver's name, contact information and
License plate number.
"Brother, if you need a car, you can call me." Jamie, the black driver, made a phone call gesture in his ear.
"Brother, you won't go for a ride next time?" Long Ziyou joked with a smile.
"No, no, I promise to take the shortest route! I can guarantee that to God." The black driver's face heated up and he said a little embarrassed. In fact, his face was already red, but because his skin color was too dark, he couldn't see it at all.
come out.
"Haha, goodbye, Jamie." Long Ziyou smiled, waved again, and then walked into the campus with Duan Ying.
"This guy isn't too bad." Jamie, the black driver, muttered as he watched the two of them disappear into the crowd at the school gate.
"Hazy, I thought you really didn't pay for the fare. It's not easy for people to drive taxis." Duan Ying scolded her as she walked into New York University.
"Haha, I just want to teach that taxi driver a lesson. He's not so overbearing that he would take a taxi." Long Ziyou said with a smile.
"If you hit me like this with a big stick and a sweet date, the black driver won't be able to disobey you even if he wants to." Duan Ying teased with a smile. In fact, she still admired Long Ziyou's methods. This is how it is expected within the system.
, giving both kindness and power is a very clever way to control your subordinates.
"Tsk, I actually learned this trick from Uncle Sam." Long Ziyou smiled bitterly.
"Oh, you're quite humble." Duan Ying teased with a hint of sarcasm.
Long Ziyou was speechless and smiled bitterly. He looked around and was attracted by the buildings and beautiful scenery on campus. Although New York University is located in the center of New York, the campus is very large and the density of buildings is not high. There are green spaces, trees, and sports venues.
There are many, which is very different from domestic universities.
Looking at the beautiful scenery on campus, Long Ziyou also thought of the information about New York University he had seen online last night: New York University (y, Nyu for short), founded in 1831, is one of the largest private universities in the United States.
1; it is also the only prestigious school in the United States located in the heart of New York. According to the latest evaluation of the authoritative "U.S. News and World Report" in 2003, New York University ranks 33rd in the United States and 44th in the world. As a university
A world-class academic institution, New York University has 33 Nobel Prize winners, 3 Abel Prize winners, 21 Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, Tony Award winners, and 9 National Medal of Science winners.
, 16 Pulitzer Prize winners, and 19 National Academy of Sciences Medal winners, and is one of the members of the American Grand Alliance composed of 60 outstanding universities. The school has a liberal arts college, a law school, and the Stern School of Business.
Eleven colleges including the School of Public Administration.
The college where Long Ziyou and Duan Ying studied this time is the School of Public Administration, and the courses are mainly administrative management and human resources management.
White people, black people, yellow people... On campus, Long Ziyou saw people of all colors getting along harmoniously. He had to sigh that the United States is a global melting pot, bringing together all kinds of outstanding talents from around the world.
Attract it here and use it for him.
Since it was already after get off work hours, Long Ziyou and Duan Ying walked around the campus and found a hotel near the school to stay.
"Ziyou, where should we go to eat at night?" Duan Ying asked after settling down.
"Hmm... I think it's better to go to Chinatown to eat, and also visit New York's Chinatown." Long Ziyou said after pondering for a while.
"Okay, let's go to Chinatown," Duan Ying nodded, "I've been there and I'll take you there."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Long Ziyou raised his arms and shouted.
Long Ziyou made a call to the black driver Jamie, who happened to be nearby. The two waited for less than five minutes before Jamie arrived.
"Hi, buddy, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon," Jamie greeted warmly as soon as the two got in the car.
"Haha, Jamie, you don't have any shadow in your heart when you see me?" Long Ziyou joked with a smile.
"No way," Jamie shook his head and said seriously: "Seriously, buddy, I really want to thank you for letting me learn to treat people with sincerity. I have decided not to rip off customers again.
!I swear to God.”
Long Ziyou found that Jamie seemed to have the habit of promising or swearing to God, so he smiled and said: "Jamie, I believe you, you don't need to swear or guarantee to God."
"Hehe..." Jamie smiled a little sheepishly, revealing a pair of white and neat teeth. People with bad teeth would probably be filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred when they saw it. How come this black man's teeth are so good!
"Yes, I almost forgot to ask where you are going?" Jamie, who had already started the car, patted the back of his head.
"Chinatown." Long Ziyou replied.
This time on the way to Chinatown, Jamie really wasn't driving around, and he had a good chat with Long Ziyou. He talked to Long Ziyou about many things that he should pay attention to when he first came to New York, and also reminded Long Ziyou who should be there.
Don't offend or provoke.
"Brother, Chinatown has been a bit uneasy recently. If you are okay, go back to the hotel early in the evening." When Long Ziyou was about to get off the bus after paying the fare, Jamie reminded Long Ziyou quite seriously.
"Oh, why?" Long Ziyou was a little curious and asked casually.
Jamie looked around, and then whispered: "Your Chinese Qinglong Gang has been fighting fiercely with another gang recently for territory. I heard that they have been fighting for several times. I am just afraid that you will accidentally get involved.
