At the age of 17, she fought for the glory of her motherland!

Chapter 266 Take it from the people and use it for the people

Su Xing and several roommates couldn't help but look over when they heard the sound.

Then I saw seven or eight people sitting in the shade over there, both men and women, all of them in their forties or fifties.

The speaker was a middle-aged woman, and her words were quickly echoed by her companions.

"That's right, many museums I've been to are free, but the Forbidden City is such a big place, but it charges admission!"

"So this so-called capital city is not grand at all!"

"Don't they say that cultural relics belong to ordinary people? You charge a fee to see an exhibit. Really..."

"Oh! Some of the words above are just for show. Even the house we bought with real money has a lifespan. Do you really think this palace is your home?"

A man curled his lips and said, "Who told you to come to the Forbidden City? Now you see it, right? That's it, tsk tsk, there's a fee, but you can't enter many palaces!"

Several girls frowned when they heard this.

Gao Yang was the first to lose patience and interrupted, "Now 80 to 90 percent of museums in China are free. Doesn't this prove that our cultural relics belong to the general public? The remaining few museums that charge admission, such as the Forbidden City and some ancient monuments and ruins, charge admission because our country has long stipulated that museums of buildings and ruins cannot be open for free. This is for the sake of cultural relic protection and to limit the number of tourists. For example, even though the Forbidden City charges admission, it is still crowded during holidays. These ancient buildings are under tremendous pressure from the flow of people, so now they have to close from time to time to repair the damaged buildings."

Gao Yang studied archaeology and ancient architecture, and he has a deep understanding of this area.

No matter where the ancient monuments or ancient buildings are, the country needs to spend a lot of manpower and financial resources to maintain them.

Gao Yang's words made the tourists who were chatting over there quiet down for a few seconds, and they turned to look at the girls.

After a while, a thin woman with a mean face rolled her eyes at the girls and said, "What does our conversation have to do with you? Kids nowadays really don't know manners!"

Pei Shiqi is unhappy!

She responded with a pair of even bigger and more beautiful eye rolls, "Can't we just talk about the facts? We are all adults, so don't take advantage of your age, okay? You work in a company and your boss is younger than you, do you still compare your age with him?"

The faces of the middle-aged men over there all turned unhappy when they heard this.

The mean-looking woman glared at Pei Shiqi, "You..."

"What are you talking about!" Pei Shiqi interrupted her before she could finish her words, and said, "You can all go out to travel, so why are you short of this little ticket money? It's just a few dozen yuan? It's just the money to buy a bottle of water, and you can't bear to spend it? You are too stingy!"

The tourists opposite: "..."

What is this little girl talking about? How can a bottle of water cost tens of dollars?

When Su Xing, Gao Yang and Zhang Caifeng heard Pei Shiqi's words, their mouths twitched and they resisted the urge to hold their foreheads.

What kind of extravagant and luxurious life did Miss Pei lead in the past?

A fat, big-eared man on the opposite side snorted and laughed, saying, "Young man, you haven't even entered society yet, have you already learned to brag? It's not good to be too vain. Don't take a detour in the future."

In addition to looking at Pei Shiqi, he also glanced at Su Xing.

Pei Shiqi blinked, looking puzzled. Why was she so vain? Puzzled!

Su Xing's face darkened, and he also spoke: "We are upright and upright, we uphold the reputation of our motherland, we love cultural relics and treasures, we understand the reasonable regulations of the country, and we will not maliciously speculate and slander others, and we will definitely not take detours!"

With just a few words, the other person's expression changed again and again.

Gao Yang, Pei Shiqi and Zhang Caifeng also looked at Su Xing in surprise.

In their impression, Su Xing is a girl with a good temper and a warm heart. Apart from her strange characteristics such as big appetite and great strength, she usually looks very cute.

I didn't expect that she had such a sharp side and could even mock others?

Su Xing didn't know yet that after improving her affinity several times, few people who had come into contact with her thought she was aloof.

But at this moment, her face was gloomy, and she still had a little bit of the aura of the cold and aloof school beauty.

The middle-aged fat man probably knew that he was not right to attack the young girl for being vain. He was silent for two seconds and then changed the subject. "The Palace Museum earns hundreds of millions a year, right? Even if some buildings here need to be repaired from time to time, can it cost so much? The money earned is the hard-earned money of the people. Where does the money go in the end?"

Zhang Caifeng was timid and not good at arguing with others. She couldn't help but interrupt at this moment, "But, the ticket money collected by these museums that charge admission has to be handed over to the national treasury, and then apply to the national finance for maintenance and management funds..."

"That's right!" Su Xing continued, "The money handed over to the national treasury is ultimately used in the management of people's livelihood, infrastructure, and other aspects of the country. This is taking from the people and using it for the people."

A woman on the other side snorted coldly and curled her lips and said, "How do you know that it was all used on ordinary people? Did you see it? Who knows whose pockets it went into..."

Gao Yang frowned, "Are you guys talking about the same thing? You just say something without any basis?"

Su Xing also said: "You mean, the money in the national treasury has gone into personal pockets? Can't you see the rapid development of our country in recent years? Uncles and aunts, you are not young anymore. Think about what the country was like when you were young? What were the living conditions like? What is it like now? Isn't it for the country and the people that our country is building infrastructure, strengthening the military, and conducting scientific research? Where does our country need money for development? If the national treasury is not full, what will we use for development?"

Pei Shiqi crossed her arms and rolled her eyes. "Tell them this, will they understand? If they could think that far ahead, they wouldn't be 'talking big' here for a few dozen dollars of ticket money, and they still think they are the most sober people in the world!"

There were also some other tourists around, who came over, listening with their ears perked up and watching the fun with curious eyes.

There are four girls here, all of them are around eighteen or nineteen years old.

The number of people on the opposite side was twice as many as theirs, and each of them was twice as old as them and had some twists and turns.

But at this moment, the little girls were not at all inferior in momentum!

The words were even more sharp, making the faces of the middle-aged people on the opposite side turn blue and red, which was very ugly.

Some tourists felt that it was a bit shameless for these middle-aged people to bully a few children, and their views were really ridiculous, so they deserved to be criticized.

Some tourists felt that these young girls did not know how to respect their elders and were too naive. They had not experienced the harshness of society and did not understand the darkness of reality.

At this time, a thin-faced man on the opposite side snorted and said speciously: "If you ask me, this Forbidden City just supports too many idle people, so this and that require money! Many departments of the country are also mostly idle people, wasting the people's money!"
