Chapter 35 Beat up the black boy
Among the pile of souvenir gifts, the treasure hunt instrument suggested that there was a treasure emitting green light, which was really beyond Lin Yuan's expectation.
The light spot was lighter in color, and Lin Yuan looked down upon it, so he called Paul and told him that there was a treasure hidden inside.
If the old fans in the live broadcast room know this, they will probably be speechless.
How many days have you been eating fine bran? Doesn’t this mean you don’t care about whole grains? At the beginning of the broadcast, Lin Yuan begged his grandfather to sue his grandma for a small gift. They still remembered it vividly!
After listening to Lin Yuan's words, Paul looked happy.
Come to watch a football match and pick up the pieces. This Chinese brother is indeed his noble man.
Paul took a deep breath and walked over with a smile on his face.
He and the staff dressed as puppets murmured a few words in a low voice, and then independently searched for the treasures Lin Yuan mentioned.
Except for a few items left in stock, the rest of the souvenirs were just purchased from the manufacturer. They are very new! There was only one item that fit Lin Yuan's theory, an inconspicuous badge.
Returning to Lin Yuan, Paul asked: "Brother Lin, did I get it correctly?"
Lin Yuan nodded slightly: "That's right!"
This doesn't seem to be a sports memorabilia, but some other badge.
To put it simply, a badge is a symbol worn on the body to express status, profession, and honor. It actually has written records and originated in my country.
Anyone who is into collecting knows that, like other collections, the development history of badges can also be told as “a long time ago.” The totem symbols of tribes in primitive societies and the ancient tiger charms, fish charms, and waist badges are actually the "originators" of modern badges.
According to historical records, in the third year of the reign of Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty, Li Feixiong misappropriated a post horse and pretended to be an envoy. His conspiracy to cause chaos was discovered by the court and executed.
In order to prevent anyone from pretending to be an envoy again, the imperial court stipulated that each envoy should be issued a silver medal engraved with a special mark, which should be worn when entering the court or performing official duties. It served as a mark and became a means of strengthening the management of palace affairs.
In addition, in ancient China, the more famous tiger charms, fish charms, waist badges, etc. were all the prototypes of today's badges, and already have the characteristics of today's badges, especially voucher badges.
It was only in modern times that badges truly acquired modern significance.
As the saying goes, "A badge is a story, a piece of history, recording the changes of the times and containing the characteristics of the times."
The badge has become a special cultural symbol and a mark of the times. The countless true stories and historical legends behind it have fascinated collectors.
It is said that today, badges have successfully "out of the circle" due to their profound cultural connotations, small size, easy preservation, and exquisite craftsmanship, and have quietly become one of the pillar industries in the collection industry.
Lin Yuan took a closer look and saw that it was an anti-fascist victory scarf alliance victory medal.
"Lin, how much is this worth?" Paul couldn't help but ask.
Lin Yuan could only give him a rough estimate: "It should be worth more than 20,000 US dollars."
Paul was satisfied.
At this moment, a black boy not far away made a provocative act of narrowing his eyes towards Lin Yuan.
As we all know, when foreigners squint their eyes, they are insulting the Chinese, especially squinting, which is an insult that maliciously vilifies the image of Asians.
Before it was Lin Yuan's turn to react, Paul rushed over and slapped the black boy wildly.
This scene happened so suddenly that even the black boy didn't react. When he felt the pain in his face, he screamed miserably. Only then did everyone in the exhibition hall come to their senses, and the scene instantly became a mess.
However, it seemed that no one came up to break up the fight or anything.
This scene was also seen by the audience in Lin Yuan's live broadcast room.
They all said: Brother Paul is very helpful and he really takes care of things.
It's worth Lin Yuan taking him to play.
Just when everyone thought that Henry was not interesting enough, the scene turned and Henry found a stick from nowhere, put it on and beat him wildly. The black boy was visibly panicked and quickly explained that his action just now was not directed at them, but just a little joke.
However, Henry and Paul had no intention of stopping.
Good guy!
The ruthless man is still behind.
OK! Everyone misunderstood Henry. Many people in the live broadcast room said they took back what they just said and wanted to apologize to Henry or something.
By the time the arena security personnel arrived, the black guy had been beaten so badly that he couldn't get up and was covered in bruises.
The people in the venue got angry and kicked both parties out.
"Lin, I'm very sorry that I couldn't let you watch the game." Paul said embarrassedly.
Lin Yuan waved his hand: "It's okay! It will be the same again in the future."
Since Dayao left, the NBA has not become so popular in China. Many people only watch the NBA because of Dayao.
"Then where are we going?" Henry asked.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"How about Union Square?" Paul recommended.
Union Square is a one-block square and its surrounding areas. It is also one of the areas with the highest concentration of department stores, high-end boutiques, travel accessories stores, art galleries and salons in the western United States. It is also one of the main places to attract tourists in San Francisco. A world class shopping district.
Various activities such as art exhibitions and flea markets are often held there, and there are also female beggars painted in purple, green witches and orange elves to join in the fun...
Mainly there are antique shops.
In Paul's view, this is one of the few places in San Francisco where he can show off his skills. Lin Yuan, who has just arrived in the United States, should be interested.
Henry said nothing and looked at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan was unfamiliar with the place, so of course it was better to follow the local snakes.
"Okay."
Seeing what Lin Yuan said, Paul called a taxi and diverted to Union Square.
After arriving, Paul began to act as a guide. However, some of his words were not understood by Lin Yuan, so Henry had to take over the job of guide, and he also spoke in Chinese.
Lin Yuan suddenly remembered something and asked: "Aren't you going to work today?"
Henry and Paul shrugged. What other classes are there?
Paul has already said hello to his colleagues and asked them to take over the work and give him three times the salary. How can his colleagues have any objections? He went to take over the shift without any hesitation, and even said that he would look for him next time he would take over the shift.
As for Henry, he also asked for leave from his boss, looking for any reason.
He is not afraid of being expelled. Anyway, there seems to be a better way out now.
On the street, there were a few civet cats lazily basking in the sun. Someone was feeding them cat food, but the proud civet cats didn't even look at these two-legged beasts.
In the United States, civet cats are not cheap. Those in good condition can cost several hundred dollars, or even tens of thousands of dollars.
Next to him, there was a young man who made a living as an artist, drawing sketches for 20 dollars a piece.
Lin Yuan stopped and took a look, and found that there were two brushes. The painting was indeed something, seventy-eight like, and the $20 was well spent.
What stunned Lin Yuan the most was that there was a Taoist priest setting up a fortune-telling stall not far away.
No, has all the business been done here?
