"Huh!" "Bang!" As Jiang Hai came out of the outdoor goods store, a huge bag appeared in his hand. With a strong shake, he threw the bag into the F650 car next to him. In the middle of a fight.

This bag is really big, not even much smaller than Jiang Hai, and it contains a lot of things.

In addition to the mountain lion fur, there are other clothes, and besides these, there are many things.

This time Jiang Hai finally saw the complete side of the Mei Di outdoor products store.

Hernia type, a complete set of new fishing rods, not only hand rods, but also sea rods, plus a diving suit, simple scuba...

In addition, his big bag also contained 200 arrows, a foldable bow, and two cold steel guns. In the United States, the management of guns is not special. is strict, but the management of knives, bows and arrows is extremely strict.

If you buy such knives, bows and arrows, you must not show them on the street, otherwise, the police will find you in trouble.

That's why Jiang Hai deliberately piled everything together. When he was in the store just now, he caught his eye on a bow.

This bow is made of silver-white metal and looks very beautiful. It is a recurve bow, not the compound bow that is very popular now. The compound bow is also the pulley bow, which is very popular now because its strength is adjustable. , and because of its lightness, it is very popular among bow enthusiasts, but Jiang Hai prefers this recurve bow. The recurve bow is similar to an ordinary longbow. It has a simple shape, but it also looks very beautiful. The most important thing is that the recurve bow is very light, easy to use, and very easy to maintain, so Jiang Hai finally chose it. When he tried it, Jiang Hai's power played a huge role at this time.

It is said that in ancient times, Huang Zhong could fire a two-stone bow. Converted to the current strength, one stone in the Han Dynasty was about 60 kilograms, and two stones meant a bow of about 120 kilograms. Jiang Hai tried After a while, he was able to pull away the 120 kilogram weight, but it was somewhat difficult.

After all, it is the ultimate strength of human beings. It is not an easy task for human arms to draw such a heavy bow frequently. However, Jiang Hai still adjusted it to 120 kilograms, because if he upgrades in the future If so, such intensity would be enough, but in the eyes of the clerk, he was so surprised that he didn't know what to say.

You must know that the average person who plays bow and arrow only needs about 60 pounds to shoot, which is converted into kilograms, which is about 26 or 7 kilograms. How much does Jiang Hai shoot now? One hundred and twenty kilograms, he didn't know how much the world record was, but he really wanted to curse now, but he didn't dare. Firstly, the customer is God, and secondly, the power of this God is a bit too scary.

Originally he thought that Jiang Hai was just a rich yellow man, but now it seemed that this guy was really not an ordinary person. All these things cost Jiang Hai 20,000 US dollars in the end, just for the bow. , it cost him seven thousand dollars. Although this bow does not look as complicated as a compound bow, it is also made of high-quality carbon fiber materials.

There is absolutely no problem with the material. As for the two guns, they are also made of cold steel and are extremely hard. They just haven't opened the edge yet, but even so, their heads can easily pierce a one centimeter thick weapon. wooden planks.

As long as he goes back and cuts it, it will definitely be a big killer.

Although Jiang Hai is now buying both bows and knives, he actually has no place to use these things.

Just like his guns, they are all decorations, but men, how many men don't like these things

"Maybe it will be used in the future, I don't know for sure." Looking at these things, Jiang Hai only had this sentence in his mind.

After packing all the things, Jiang Hai put on a deerskin coat. Although the style of this clothes was a bit rustic, it had a very good thermal insulation effect. After buying this big bag of things, Jiang Hai I just want to go back.

But after thinking about it, he came to the town anyway and planned to go shopping in the supermarket.

After the snow, some of the food in the manor was not enough. Of course, there was always enough fish and beef.

But in addition to fish and beef, people also need a lot of things, and these things need to be supplemented from vegetables and fruits.

As far as Jiang Hai knows, the most abundant vegetables in the manor are potatoes and cabbage, and everything else is lacking.

As for fruits, it seems that there are only oranges, and there are basically no other fruits. Now that he has come to the town and does not do some shopping, Jiang Haike feels sorry for himself. After he got into the car, he drove , came to a supermarket in a small town.

This supermarket is also the largest supermarket in the town. It cannot be said to have everything in it, but it is basically the same. More than 90% of everything can be found here.

After parking the car, Jiang Hai walked into the supermarket. But as soon as he walked in, he found that the atmosphere in the supermarket was not quite right. There were lights and colorful lights everywhere, and the number of people in the supermarket was obviously smaller than usual. a bit more.

There were balloons hanging everywhere, and some people dressed in turkey and corn clothes were running around. Looking at the scene in front of him, Jiang Hai couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. What is going on

"It's not Christmas yet, what are you doing?" He went to push a small cart. Looking at the scene in front of him, Jiang Hai muttered in a low voice. Maybe he heard what he said. At this time, someone pushing a cart next to him The old man in the car came over.

"Young man has just come to America!" Looking at Jiang Hai, the old man said with a smile.

"Well, I've been here for a few months." After hearing the old man's words, Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment and replied politely.

"Then you didn't know that Thanksgiving is coming soon?" After hearing Jiang Hai's answer, the old man said in surprise.

"Thanksgiving?" Hearing these three words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Then he remembered that the American Empire seemed to have such a program, but in fact, Thanksgiving Day in the American Emperor was not just a program. It's that simple. In the United States, it is the second most important holiday after Christmas, and it is also a unique holiday to the United States.

This holiday can be said to be one of the most hypocritical holidays in the world. There are two versions of this holiday. One is the beautified version of white people, which talks about the freedom fighters who were unwilling to be persecuted by the Holy See, also known as the Puritans. , traveled across the ocean, took the Mayflower, and came to the American continent. The location was Plymouth, Massachusetts. Because they had no food at the time and were about to starve to death, the local Indians helped them, and the church They cultivated corn, hunted, fished and other skills. When celebrating the harvest, these Puritans called the people and invited the Indians to thank God for their gifts. That’s why there is such a Thanksgiving Day. However, anyone who knows a little bit of history Everyone knows that this beautified version is so nonsense.

Compared to the beautified version of white people, it seems that the Indian version is more reliable.

According to the Indians, the Mayflower brought not the Puritans, but some exiled criminals. They brought plague and killings. Until 1637, almost all the Indians were killed, and that It was the year that whites first officially declared a day to celebrate Thanksgiving, not to thank the Indians but to celebrate their massacre.

Therefore, this is one of the most hypocritical holidays. This also shows that in fact, people under American imperialism are still very discriminatory in their hearts. This kind of festival, which was established to celebrate the massacre of other races, actually does not exist under American imperialism. It is the second major section, which can be seen from this.

But anyway, this is the second largest holiday in the United States. Even on this day, schools across the United States will be on holiday.

Hearing the old man's words, Jiang Hai also said oh. Although he was a little scornful of this festival, after all, this was the first festival he had celebrated since he came here. In fact, he had celebrated one festival before, but But he didn’t know it. Halloween was a children’s holiday. Because he lived so far away, it was impossible for children in or out of town to go to his house and shout: No. Trick or treat or something like that.

So Jiang Hai spent Halloween in a daze. If it weren't for coming here to buy things today, he might not even know that Thanksgiving was coming. To be honest, with so many Western cultural invasions, the only Western program Jiang Hai knew There are only three, Christmas, New Year, and dog abuse on February 14th, oh no, Valentine's Day, well, Jiang Hai is the one who is being abused now.

Apart from these three holidays, he knew almost nothing about other holidays. He tried to think of them as Father's Day and Mother's Day, as well as the Arbor Day and Labor Day that he celebrated when he was a child. But in fact, there are many holidays in the United States. Yes, there are many important holidays, such as Easter, Flag Day, Independence Day, Columbus Day, Lincoln Memorial Day, Presidents Day, etc.

This old man may really have nothing to do. After telling Jiang Hai about Thanksgiving, he did not leave. He continued to tell Jiang Hai about the festival of the American emperor. After talking about the festival, he started talking about the customs here.

For example, you don't have to shake hands when you meet, but you must look at the other person and bow slightly when shaking hands. This is considered polite.

If you go to someone's house, be sure to call first and don't give business cards to people you don't know easily. Americans don't want to treat guests to restaurants, prefer to stay at home, don't like to eat steamed and braised dishes, and don't like to eat soup. Overheated dishes. I don’t like salty things. I only like to eat less salty and very sweet and sour things. When eating at other people’s houses, don’t leave any food on the plate because it is impolite. My favorite Chinese cuisine , in fact, very few. I only like improved Sichuan cuisine, and I prefer Jiangsu cuisine and Cantonese cuisine.

I like white because it represents purity. I like yellow because it represents harmony. I like basket colors and red, which represent good luck and good luck. I like white cats because they think white cats can bring luck. Give them to women who are not relatives. Never give perfume. , clothes and cosmetics.

Don’t call black people NEGRO, because this is the original name for black slaves in Spain. You can call it BLACK, so that black people will accept it frankly. However, you must not add PEOPLE after BLACK. The correct name is TheAfricanAmeicans. Americans), don’t mention the 13th or Friday easily, don’t ask about other people’s income, don’t ask about other people’s marriage or any other private things, taboo on black, especially hate giving things to others, but there is something related to you on it. Trademark, because it is suspected of advertising...
