Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 191: family party three

"Where's the rooster? How about at the Livestock Association?"

Lisko looked at the recovered Colt and turned to ask the cock.

In the Livestock Association, the rooster represented their three ranches, and it was also considered to be his own eyeliner installed in the association. Although Lisko's favor was still somewhat useful in the political world, after all, the magistrate was not as good as the current one.

"Less has no rivals now. I heard that he plans to apply for state legislature." The rooster flicked twice into the handicraft ashtray on the table and replied lightly.

"Less is okay, I guess he wants to ask me for help." Lisko also pondered for a while. With Les's qualifications, there are only two ways to successfully join a member of parliament. One is to join a political party, but it is not good. method, because a new person in a political party does not take this position.

Another is to use external forces to use non-party middlemen to gain power.

For Les, Lisko has a very good impression. He is a rancher from a background and can speak on behalf of all local ranchers, so that next time there is a proposal in the state, everyone will be prepared, not the one above. Head, just casually can add agricultural tax.

If you want to oppose a political opinion in the United States, it cannot be overthrown by ranchers and cowboys in a rally. At least you have to have your own platform to speak out.

If Les had the opportunity to join the state legislature, it would also be a good help. If he really had an idea, Lisko wouldn't mind contacting his personal connections and helping him.

After reading the newspaper for a while, Lisko understood that he wanted the politicians above to pity the ranchers below, because of the lack of income due to various natural disasters or force majeure factors. .

They don't care how your harvest is, even if you end up losing tens of thousands of dollars a year after a busy year, should they discuss whether to increase taxes or increase, otherwise, why are the ranchers near Garrison going bankrupt more and more more.

After a busy year, I finally calculated the cost and the various taxes to be paid. Finally, I checked it out. This year is another year of loss. If I can’t bear it, I can only sell the ranch.

The three finished smoking a cigar in the reception room and chatted for a while before being interrupted by Maggie's shout.

"Hey, do you want to have some fun?"

Maggie was at the door, smiling and greeting the three people inside.

Lisko put out the cigarette **** in his hand and walked out.

The preparations for the outside have been done. Looking at the Great Wall, Lisko knew what they wanted to play, and looked at everyone in surprise.

"Come on. Play mahjong."

Li Ke glanced at Zhang Li, who was already in the position, and her eyes were full of incredible.

That's right, the game Maggie wants to play is the national quintessence of China, Mahjong.

Zhang Li, a Chinese who just arrived in the United States, can imagine her surprise when she saw the old lady greet everyone to play mahjong.

Speaking of which, in the United States, more and more Americans like to play mahjong, the most famous of which is the famous NBA star Olney.

After this national quintessence was introduced to the United States at the end of the 20th century, many people liked to play. In the United States, not only the Mahjong Association, but also the Confucius Institute has included playing mahjong in the official curriculum of the college. Even Britain and France are also affected by this trend. Mahjong leagues have been established.

Lisko has heard of it before, but I have never seen anyone play this. Today is the first time I found out that Maggie still likes it.

"Come on, this is a Chinese board game. When I was traveling in Chicago, I learned it from others at the RV base. It's very interesting."

Maggie was very enthusiastic, and she built the cards in front of her with ease.

Gorley is also full of interest. She also plays this game. When she was in the pet hospital, she played with her colleagues several times.

Catherine really didn't, but she moved a stool in high spirits and sat next to Goree to watch.

Seeing that Zhang Li was still on the side and didn't understand the situation, she felt as if she was still in the Chinese countryside, and she was greeted by someone to put her hands together, and she felt a sense of consternation in a time-space disorder.

"I'll come, I'll play." Li Ke did it without hesitation. He observed that the mahjong they used was no different from the one in China, and it was also printed with the words southeast, northwest wind.

Speaking of which, the mahjong spread in the United States has not changed much, which also makes many Americans know the four characters of south, east and northwest, and the rest are patterns. There are not many Chinese characters that need to be known in mahjong, and Arabic numerals are very important to all countries. They are all generic. After a few games, most Americans are familiar with the rules and play very smoothly.

Colt and Rooster also took cans of beer and were about to watch Lisko play. They had never played before and wanted to learn.

Mahjong is popular in the United States, most of which are held in senior centers, or some family gatherings, because this is a group sex, four people can play together, many people feel that sitting together as a family, playing mahjong, can deepen affection between family members.

Li Ke also neatly organized the hands and feet~www.readwn.com~Zhang Li also woke up from the stunned smile. She smiled and started to organize the mahjong in front of her. She made up her mind that she would send a message later. information, tell my relatives and friends that playing mahjong is popular in the United States, I really can't believe it.

After Lisko sorted it out, he waited for other people's actions. Maggie brought mahjong here. After playing a few times in Chicago, she became addicted to it. Sure enough, no matter where the old lady is, there is no way to escape mahjong. charm.

When she left Chicago, Maggie specially bought a pair from a nearby Chinese mall and put it in her suitcase. After coming back for so long, she never had a chance to play this, but she was so anxious that she finally picked a good time today. .

In American mahjong, there are rows of rules printed on each mahjong cloth, because their brains the size of sesame seeds cannot remember such a complicated arrangement.

Of course, there are also adaptations of American Mahjong, where they turned the Northwest into New York, Mexico, San Francisco, Canada. The red-medium, green-haired, and white boards have become red, blue, and white mesh patterns, the "cheese" has become the stars on the American flag, the "stripes" are red stripes, the "wanzi" are U.S. dollars, and the flower cards have become Drinks, cars, airplanes and more.

It is estimated that Maggie's object of learning mahjong is a Chinese, and she is going to play the domestic Sichuan mahjong game.

Li Ke watched Maggie play the sieve skillfully, and then took the card. This is the same way of playing as the Chinese, and Zhang Li looked astonished.

"Bang." Lisko picked up Gori's cartridge, and then played out the ten thousand cards in his hand.

"Huh." Zhang Li shouted out in Chinese, and then showed his cards.
