Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 811 The Dilemma of the Nut Tavern

"We're already content! Without your help, Diane would have to go to New Haven Middle School."

"Compared to there, the current result is already very good!"

Looking at her lively and lovely daughter with loving eyes, Mrs. Durham was full of sighs.

It stands to reason that, as the middle class in the United States, their income is good.The Yale community where I live can also be regarded as a very good community location in Upper New Haven, from the security environment to the supporting facilities
However, due to the previous antagonistic relationship, two private secondary schools near Yale University: Hopkins School and Hamden Hall School are not very willing to accept children from the Yale community.

For these, the admission right belongs to the private middle school of the school, and the residents in the community have no way to force it.After all, they are only secretly selecting in the admissions process, rather than blatantly rejecting the admission of children from the Yale community.
It is also very difficult to sue them for discriminatory admissions!
As for why this is the case, the root knot is still based on the previous confrontation between the city and the school.
Simply put, what happened in the past is that the New Haven city government has planned to isolate Yale in terms of various resources.In order to force Yale to compromise, for example, to hand over the anti-war demonstrators who were sheltered by Yale.
As for the city government of New Haven, why did it care so much about this kind of thing.Carter doesn't know. If he guesses, it might be something like a military-industrial interest complex.
In short, in terms of approach, it is no different from when the northern government cut off support for Yale during President Whitney's time.
"That's right, Hamdenhall may be more suitable for Diane's growth than Hopkins, who is too stubborn to lose face!"

Carter nodded slightly
In the process of gradually "breaking the ice" between Yale and the city government of New Haven, there are always some areas that the two sides have not taken into account.Among them, the most overlooked groups are those who live within Yale, but are not Yale staff and students.
What Brad said, Carter's contribution is often reflected in this kind of place.For example, as a representative of Yale, help communicate with all parties, negotiate
"That's right, we can't let Diane be the same as his brother back then. Don't talk about it, my husband will be home soon! Otherwise, come to our house for dinner! Speaking of Diane's enrollment, we still have to I didn't thank you enough."

"Thank you for your kindness, but unfortunately, I still have some things to do now. I am also very happy to know that Diane has successfully entered the school! This will not bother you."

After a brief chat, Carter bid farewell to the family and moved on.

Compared with the things I am mainly doing, TED and the like.It was difficult for Carter to remember such trivial matters as the Durham family in the past.
If it weren't for my activities and business in New Haven at Yale University.It is indispensable to need the support of the school, Stevens and others; it is indispensable to deal with the New Haven City Government.
In addition, it was Stevens who found him directly, please come forward.
Carter is really not happy to do these things for the residents and for the welfare.

After being pointed out by Brad, Carter gradually became more aware of some things he did with the mind of dealing with errands
"Carter, are you here? Why are you here so early today? Do you want to go on stage to give a talk tonight?"

Continue along Elm Street, and then walk for about 6 minutes to the Nut Tavern.

Seeing Carter appearing at the door, the bearded boss Walter turned around and took a bottle of whiskey from above the wine cabinet, and poured a full glass for Carter.
"I won't be on stage, and I haven't prepared a manuscript. They are speaking well now, just let them speak!"

There were not many people in the tavern around five o'clock in the afternoon!

But because the talk show, which has swept the entire campus recently, originated here.Early in the morning, there were many students who were free at night, and some attracted residents sat in their seats
Chatting with each other, waiting for the show to start at 07:30 in the evening..
"Well, I know you don't care about the performance fee. But if you are on stage, I guess my tavern will be full by now."

"What? Are you still not satisfied? There are many times more people now than when I first came to your store?"

"If it's always been like this, of course I'm content! But this kind of good life, I don't think it will be long before the "Minimum Drinking Age Act" has been passed, and it will be officially implemented next year."

Walter, who still prefers beer to whiskey, took a sip of wine, wiped his mouth very freely, and sighed:
"At that time, at least three quarters of your classmates will not be able to come to my place to spend."

"Let's change it to a music restaurant! Hire a few part-time jobs from the conservatory during the day, and continue the talk show at night without the profit from the drinks. At least we can live on!"

Turning the Haibo Cup in his hand, Carter smiled faintly.

The Minimum Drinking Age Act enacted in 84 has no effect on Carter, who is about to turn 21.Carter almost met the drinking standard on the front foot, followed by the introduction of the restriction bill
This pair used to be, after entering middle school, the primary school updated the tables and chairs; after entering high school, the junior high school updated the computer room
For Carter, who is always "slow to catch up", it is more or less a pleasant thing!

"I've thought about your suggestion carefully during this time, but to be honest, I don't dare to take the risk of this transformation because of the cost of the renovation! If it doesn't work, the old customers will be lost."

Seeing that Walter's small eyes under the bushy eyebrows were staring at him "affectionately", Carter quickly interjected:

"Don't look at me like that, I said I won't invest! I don't want to open a restaurant anymore!"

"Oh~ you can't do this, Carter! I don't ask you for investment, but how about you help me and put on a few talk shows for me? You have to let poor old Walter earn some decoration money! Ticket money , you get [-]%! I'll give you back half of the drink profit on the spot, how about it?"

"I already asked the decoration team to give you a discount, you greedy old turtledove! If you have no money, just transfer the store to me!"

As soon as he slapped the table, Carter reprimanded Walter pretending to be annoyed.

As a venue provider in the TED project, Walter lent Carter his stage for free, and Carter gave back with popularity.During the nearly one-month cooperation, both parties are very happy.
After going back and forth, the two also got to know a lot.Even small jokes can be played.
"No, no, no, now the price of the tavern can't be sold at all. One is selling at a lower price than the other. Someone offered 20 dollars to buy my store before, but I didn't sell it. Now it's even more impossible!"

"Then you have to think about where the money for the renovation will come from! My sincere suggestion is to go to Black Flag Bank for a loan and use your shop as collateral. There is no problem with a loan of [-] US dollars, which is enough for you to transform!"

"This suggestion is worse than transferring the store, and the damn interest rate now... is a complete money grab!"

"You can't blame me. If you have an opinion, you can go to Washington and protest at the gate of the Federal Reserve! Don't blame me for not reminding you, it's not long before 84, so make up your mind!"

"Can't you really talk about your performance?!"

"No! Don't even think about it. Unless"
