Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States
Chapter 9 The Board That Can't Be Escaped
"Mrs. Mary, please believe me. This is definitely a printing or typing error in the textbook, or a review error by the editor. In China, whether it is "Historical Records of Xia Benji", "The Chronicles of the Five Emperors", or "Zhuangzi"
"In the records about flood control in "Lu Shi Chun Qiu", the person who organized the big project was Yu! It can't be Wu!"
Carter rattled off a series of book titles that the two of them had never heard of, and he was a little excited. Now, it seems that this is no longer a matter of his own personal face. The dignified American AP (similar to the Unified Examination) certified textbooks are very good for history, especially history.
In the Chinese history part, it may be a typographical error or a deliberate mistake.
There is no record of distorting the flood control project itself, let alone distortion and smearing. But even the key incident figures can be mistaken. If they say that these Americans don't pay attention to Chinese history at all, they will not be wronged, right?
Of course, Carter is also very clear. It is simply not something he can do to expect Americans to really pay attention to and face up to China's history. Let alone Americans who are in a period of arrogance these days, Americans in 40 years will be able to face up to China.
He doesn't know much about history. But since this matter involves him, whether it is to avoid embarrassing himself or to correct some historical mistakes as much as possible, Carter has no choice but to retreat at this time. Of course, he himself does not want to retreat.
!
Carter, who had just graduated in his previous life, still had this strong scholarly spirit. What he said was right, so why should he be punished?
"Carter, these...are all Chinese historical documents you are talking about? Where did you read them? I haven't noticed that you are very interested in Chinese culture before?"
Fortunately, Carter's enthusiasm for book business met Mrs. Mary. Although Carter had complained about her fiercely before, Carter also admitted in his heart that as an educator, Mrs. Mary was undoubtedly very qualified.
After listening to Carter's explanation, even though she didn't know what the books in Carter's mouth were, and even though she still had doubts in her heart that Carter was making things up, she didn't deny him dogmatically, but asked patiently.
"I had no interest in it before, but this year they established diplomatic relations with China. I became interested after seeing the news. After all, they are also one of the ancient civilizations, and they are the only country that has inherited it from super long ancient times to today.
.I’m very curious why there are seven ancient civilizations in the world, but only China’s cultural heritage has never been cut off.”
As early as when he asked to see Mrs. Mary to seek justice, Carter had already thought up an excuse for the source of the knowledge that he should not have known. When it comes to the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, the first reaction of most Chinese students is Nixon's visit to China in 1972.
, but it was in January 1979 that the joint communiqué was actually issued and diplomatic relations were officially established, which was a major event that happened not long ago this year.
It is reasonable to become interested in China from this! And the following description of inheritance is even more reasonable, because this passage is the original words written in the textbook. Even the students who felt indignant because they felt fooled by the students were
When "Mediterranean" heard Carter's excuse, he couldn't help but frown, wondering if the textbook was really wrong... In fact, this student was right?
"Okay, I admit that your explanation has convinced me. But I don't know whether this flood control person is Wu or Yu. So let's put this issue aside for the time being. Then I will write to the author of the textbook for verification, and I will
Alumni from college, ask them to go to Chinatown in Los Angeles to find a real Chinese person to verify your answer."
Mrs. Mary glanced at Carter, who was standing upright, looking confident, and then at the hesitant "Mediterranean" before making the final decision. At this time, Carter thought Mrs. Mary had been persuaded by her, and she was a little happy and a little curious.
The school that Mrs. Mary graduated from... in Los Angeles, the most famous one seems to be the University of Southern California?
I didn’t even realize that the reason why Mrs. Mary was so easily persuaded could not be attributed to her eloquence. Because there is no official organization for the compilation of history textbooks in the United States, and there is no such kind of funds in administrative appropriations. Usually history textbooks
The selection of works by historians is directly selected and used directly.
It is actually normal for individual errors to appear in works written by individuals, especially large works such as the general history of the world. When writing an online novel, there are some things that cannot be taken into account, and book friends will find mistakes.
, let alone such a general history book?
"Beyond this question, Carter, you were wrong to sleep in class, right? For this, Mr. Wilser punished you, is there a problem?"
This... seems like there's really nothing to say? You can't really say in front of Mrs. Mary that it's a big deal that you slept in class. Which high school student has never slept in class, right?
Poor Carter couldn't escape the punishment in the end. But fortunately, this time the corporal punishment was carried out in the principal's office, avoiding public embarrassment...
"Fuck, whoever tells me that it's easier to go to school in the United States than in China, I'm going to give him a big mouth!"
Rubbing his aching buttocks, Carter cursed and walked out of the office building. This is so damn simple. No matter how corporal punishment is used on students in China, the most is punishing them by standing still and copying a text. How can there be such a direct "personal attack"? Agreed.
What about freedom and democracy?
Advanced countries? That’s it? That’s it??
Ten minutes later, Carter walked into Black's Bank with a black face. Goodman, who was on the phone, caught a glimpse of Carter coming in with a black face. He hurriedly ended the phone call in his hand and hurried after him.
"Carter...you...what's going on? Things are not going well at school?"
That's not right. If the matter of leaving school early had not been settled, then Carter would not be here at this point.
"Don't mention school, I want to be quiet..."
Carter grinned, gritted his teeth, and sat on the boss's chair. Thanks to the soft sponge cushion, the pain in his buttocks was much better, and he thought he would get used to it after a while.
It’s such a bad day in the Mediterranean, and the attack is so black! The one-centimeter-thick board is really hard to hit! Even if it’s not “hitting hard”, it’s still “hitting hard”!
"Jingjing? Who is Jingjing?"
Goodman responded with a humorless joke in confusion, causing Carter to roll his eyes. He felt frustrated that after being physically traumatized, his spirit was also traumatized...
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about anything quiet. How is the loan? How is the progress? There is also the situation of withdrawing money. How much cash reserve do we have now?"
"The borrowing thing went smoothly. Portnewt agreed to lend us US$650,000 at an interest rate of 14 points. Monza also agreed to lend us US$300,000 at an interest rate of 13.4%. Macon's Macdonald Bank also agreed to lend us US$300,000."
They agreed to lend us US$250,000 at an interest rate of 13.2, all for five years. These three banks have already been confirmed, and there are another 20 banks currently negotiating..."
