Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 568 My Gunner Classmate
As the saying goes, riches and honor do not return to their hometowns, just like traveling at night in brocade clothes!

Once upon a time, Carter couldn't understand why the close or distant relatives of his grandfather's family insisted on going back to his hometown to build a small high-rise in the countryside after becoming famous abroad.But now, as he grows older, or in other words, as his career develops steadily and gradually participates in clan affairs, Carter suddenly understands a little bit about the former uncles.
The land price in Grapevine was even lower than Carter expected.When it was heard that Carter intends to purchase a large number of land in Grapevine, even the mayor was alarmed, and he came to visit Carter in the old dilapidated house of his grandfather's house.
400 million square meters of land, the preferential price is [-] million US dollars.The transaction amount cannot be said to be very high, but for Grapevine, this is also a rare big deal!After all, the siphon effect of big cities is more obvious in Grapevine
Many talented young people flocked to Dallas and Fort Worth, and most of the ones left behind were those who were either not capable enough, too old, or content with the status quo.The development of the city has potential, but not much.

Not to mention the additional income of 400 million US dollars, what is gratifying is that the land tax of nearly [-] US dollars per year after that is the happiest income for the Grapevine Municipal Government!

In addition to the hustle and bustle of the mayor's arrival, when the land transaction contract was signed.Neighbors and friends, headed by Grace, began to pool money to rent land, discuss where to buy building materials and where to buy calves
From time to time, people would come to the old house of the Black family to inquire about it.The frequency was so high that Carter once suspected that these dicks were here to eat and drink, but this kind of being rubbed and prostituted for nothing was extremely gratifying.

And seeing faint, no, obviously the eldest grandson who is the center of the topic and the center of crowd influence, grandpa still has a little bit of reserve.But old lady, walking these days is all floating
"It is reported that the gunman who assassinated Reagan, John Sinkley, was finally acquitted the day before yesterday. According to Hinckley's defense lawyer, Hinckley suffered from an indeterminate seizure and was asymptomatic before the seizure. Aggressive Mental Illness. Shot the President because of an onset of mental illness Hinckley himself was incapacitated"

"Sophistry! It's all sophistry! What kind of mental illness, they don't even bother to make up a name!"

The family atmosphere, which has always been very cheerful, was suddenly interrupted by a news broadcast on TV.Carter, who yawned and walked downstairs, only listened to the old tea table in the living room, and was shocked by the old man's slap.
The remaining drowsiness dissipated in an instant amidst the body shaking caused by the sudden sound of slapping the table
"What are you doing! What are you doing! You scared Carter!!"

As the heart of the old lady, Katie said that he was so frightened that his body trembled.It is estimated that frowning can cause the old lady to complain dissatisfiedly.
"Good morning~ I'm fine, grandma."

Joining the old man who got up early with a smile, Carter turned his gaze to the TV and asked while watching:

"What happened? Why is grandpa so angry?"

"Hmph, Carter, look. The murderer who shot Mr. President last year has recently been sentenced: acquitted! It's ridiculous. In our United States, the assassination of the President can be acquitted!"

His wife's staring eyes made the old man restrain his emotions a little bit, but the flushed neck well expressed his emotions at the moment:
"What a president. Since he came to power, prices outside have not risen as much as they used to. I can't imagine how we would have lived if we had let that goddamn guy get his way last year. Not only It’s me, an old man, and you, Uncle Oni, don’t even think about saving some money to start a farm.”

"It's okay, it'll be fine! Look, doesn't this mean that our president is the chosen one? A frontal shot, even six shots can't kill him!"

Carter chuckled, followed the old man's words, and agreed.

The argument of the chosen one is of course nonsense, it is just a speech made by Genzi during the crisis public relations, and he used it for his own use.However, let alone the assassination of Gen Zi in March 1981, the commotion was not small.It's just that at that time, Carter didn't care about it. After all, the root is not dead.
It’s not a big deal, after all, if the President of the United States hadn’t been assassinated twice, you wouldn’t be ashamed to say that you did a great job.
The president of the United States who has never been assassinated is the same as the president of South Korea who has retired normally. How about cherishing animals? !You can go to the zoo to collect tickets.
"That's right, there is hope for such a day! It's not like before, our income has not risen as fast as the price of goods, and we can earn 8000 U.S. dollars by farming all year round. In reality, we can buy [-] U.S. dollars. More stuff than $[-] could buy the year before!"

"A good man lives long! God bless him with no disease or disaster."

"Haha, yes yes yes!"

Carter laughed awkwardly, the age gap and the level of contact are different.In some ways, family life is not all happy.
Carter could feel the unreserved kindness and love of the two old people for him, and spoke from the bottom of his heart.When he has free time, Carter is also willing to spend more time talking with the two old people, but most of the time, the communication is really not smooth.

Just like at this time, Carter really didn't know what to say other than answering with an awkward smile.
It cannot be said that the reason why Genzi survived that time was purely thanks to the new Secret Service regulation that "when the president travels, the door of the presidential car is not allowed to be closed", which led to Genzi being able to get in the car in time when he was assassinated. transfer?
It can't be said that the reason why the Secret Service has this rule is purely because when the old President Ford was assassinated, four stupid agents picked up the old Ford and ran away.The result was that no one opened the door.
Old Ford didn't die in the hands of gangsters, but he was almost killed by four stupid agents hitting his head on the car door.
This joke has been widely circulated in later generations.But at this meeting, this kind of speechless incident that happened at the top rarely reaches the ears of ordinary citizens like my grandparents.

After all, old Ford isn't dead yet!People also want to save face, okay? !
"John Hinckley, born well, his father in 1980, John Hinckley was studying at Yale University"

"Huh?! Carter, this murderer is still your classmate?!"

"what?"

Carter, who was deserting, came back to his senses.

"Look, the news said that the shooter was a Yale student who enrolled a year earlier than you."

"It's too scary, Carter! Aren't you a famous university? How come there are such thugs! You are usually in danger."

"I"

Carter was stunned, what the hell?
Is the world so small? !
My gunslinger classmate? !
