   Chapter 8 John

   "Hey, Stan."

   Sitting in the old Hawk's bar, enjoying the long-lost pan-fried veal steak.

   Xie Jin seems to have returned to the time when he was in college in an ivory tower in San Francisco.

  While drinking the most expensive wine in the old Hawk tavern, it is also the white wine collection that Old Hawk has hidden for four years.

   Xie Jin looked at the person in front of him. Today is the fifth person who came to talk to him.

   "Tell me about yourself, John."

   Looking at the embarrassing figure in front of him, he was dressed in shabby clothes.

  He nodded silently in his heart.

   Express satisfaction with the other person's physical fitness and fitness.

  At the same time, on the surface, he is really calm, pretending to be a rich man who is deciding the fate of others.

   Enjoying the power and pleasure of controlling the fate of others.

   Just like in front of him, the tender veal steak he was eating was just slaughtered this morning.

  Derived from a beloved calf just over three months old at Nick’s small farm next door.

   Just like what he is drinking now, the old Hawke has collected more than four years of white wine.

  Old Hawk himself was reluctant to move, so he paid five hundred dollars to take it down.

  This is the rich man.

   Although disdainful, although helpless.

  However, everyone likes and wants to be rich.

  Everything is for survival or family health and so on.

   "I, I heard that you are recruiting gold diggers.

   So, so I want to pitch in, you know.

  I am in a difficult situation now, but I am able to endure hardships and I am very honest.

  I just want the minimum salary and share, I hope you let me join your gold rush team. "

  Looking at the strong man in front of him who doesn't know much about negotiating skills, or is unwilling to understand negotiating skills.

   Xie Jin nodded, but his face was expressionless, and he didn't express his opinion to the other party.

  Even if the other party is like a fool, showing him the softest belly, and telling himself that he is very fragile now and desperately needs money.

   Can accept all kinds of humiliation, can accept any squeeze, and work hard.

   This capitalist favorite mood and performance.

  But he didn't show any emotion.

  John Kimpson, to be honest, he's heard the name.

   After all, I have been in the small town for several months.

  Although he wasn't in the town most of the time, he still had a clear understanding of some people's situations and news.

  For example, this shabby white man in shabby clothes.

  He is very clear and understanding.

  Like many entry-level gold diggers who came to Charles with dreams in mind, hoping to obtain tuition fees, repay loans, and accumulate the first pot of gold.

  Although John didn’t come here for the above reasons, he was still one of those people with dreams in mind.

   Instead of the other kind, there are only gold diggers who are drunk and dream of making a fortune, and have lost their ideals by doing nothing all day long.

  Of course, John's story is very old-fashioned, but also very exciting and bloody.

   is a very typical middle-class bankrupt white man.

   That is the kind of middle-class man who had a happy family, but because of accidents or various reasons, the family suddenly broke down.

  The situation is basically that I work hard every day.

  The wife is lonely and cold at home, and is being targeted by some people who specialize in watching these young women.

   or other reasons, and then the wife suddenly cheated.

   Then it was discovered by the angry husband.

  Then, the husband immediately attacked or threatened to attack the couple in extreme anger.

   Then the other party called the police, the police arrived and arrested the man.

   Because of the tendency of domestic violence, he was detained and would face prosecution and sentencing.

  Unless the woman issues a letter of understanding, and issuing a letter of understanding obviously requires conditions.

  After going through countless twists and turns, the husband finally came out, let’s not talk about the reason for coming out.

  After successfully coming out, the woman sued for divorce because of a breakdown in her relationship.

  Because the woman is a housewife, has no job and income, and is the one who often accompanies her children, she belongs to a vulnerable group.

  At the same time, the man has a tendency to domestic violence.

  Or even if the man is not prone to domestic violence, but the woman has her own alarm records, her own "panic" recordings, and "injury" photos.

   Then, the court is also willing to believe the woman.

  Then, the woman is a full-time housewife, the woman is with the child, the woman has no financial means, and the woman has been threatened by domestic violence.

  The court ruled that most of the property belongs to the weak party, and at the same time, it also has the right to custody of the children.

   Then the white man was kicked out and had to pay the woman alimony every month, as well as child support.

   This alimony is still based on the standard of living and welfare benefits enjoyed by both parties before the divorce.

   That is to say, if you spent 100,000 yuan a month before the divorce, then your alimony after divorce will also be at the standard level of 100,000 yuan.

   And this money has to be paid until the woman finds her next lover and remarries.

   That is to say, as long as the other party does not get married or work in the future, you have to pay until you die.

  So, after the above procedures are completed, a result will appear.

  You are greened, and then you are kicked out, without a lot of property.

   Then you need to give your cheating ex-wife a lot of money every month, and you need her permission to look after the children.

   Then your ex-wife and her boyfriend live in your house, sleep in your bed, beat your baby, and spend your money.

  You also need to pay them alimony and repay the mortgage, and you must meet the standards.

   It’s okay if you don’t pay, you will be prosecuted by the court if you don’t pay, and then go directly to teach and be a human being.

   In this case, your work will definitely be greatly affected.

   If you don't pay attention, you will be fired and laid off by the boss because of an accident.

  But the alimony still needs to be paid, otherwise, they will have to stay in for a few years.

How to do it?

   Therefore, countless people finally abandoned their identities directly, wandered on the streets, and became half living dead.

   Credit is cleared to negative, no identity, and debts.

   And Bald Eagle is a credit society.

  No identity, no credit, poor and white.

   And you can’t find a good job that matches you. The boss doesn’t dare to hire you, and the landlord won’t rent you a house.

   Then you can only live on the streets, engage in various low-level jobs that do not require status, or commit crimes to make ends meet.

   Then work more than ten hours a day, earn a meager income, and live on deck chairs in parks, on the street, and in cars.

   Being bullied, insulted, patronized by criminals.

   In this way, there is no way and time to change your situation.

   Such a vicious circle, and then until one day, he died of various infectious diseases and accidents.

  so...

  The John in front of him is such a **** and miserable middle-aged white man.

   But different from others.

  He didn't give up hope like everyone else.

   Instead, I came here, with hope and determination, wanting to make money by panning for gold.

   Then find a way to regain the custody of the daughter from the ex-wife.

  Well, an epic, great father who has all the responsibilities of being a real father.

  As for why he is so persistent? I must go back... no, save my daughter?

  Because of the great bald eagle country, it is not uncommon for the stepfather to be strong and so on.

   At the same time, there is no good community school and living environment.

  Many girls are pregnant, have a baby, have a second child, go to school and so on, and it is really not dreamy.

   Given the choice, not having that father, can accept this **** situation.

   Obviously, John in front of him is also one of them.

  The difference is that even if he had no choice, he obviously couldn't accept it, and everything became like that.

  But that actually has nothing to do with Xie Jin.

  There are too many poor people in the world, and he doesn't have the strength to take care of irrelevant people.

  Besides, the Bald Eagle Country is pitiful. Isn’t it pitiful for the children in the country who can’t afford to eat?

  If he has the ability and compassion, he will go to the Bald Eagle Kingdom to do charity when he is full.

   To put it bluntly, I don’t care about it myself. I don’t care about it. He is a purebred, and there is no way for a yellow-skinned and yellow-hearted person to care about such things.

  Of course, it is acceptable for him to push the boat along the way, and if the conditions are right, he can give it a hand to show the humanitarian spirit.

   Like now.

   Such as when needed.

   After all, limited sympathy doesn’t need to pay too much. As a normal person with good three views, he is still willing to do it.

   But no matter how much, then don’t think about it. He has that dollar bill, so he might as well go back and give back to those poor children with black hair and black eyes who have no food and have to walk dozens of kilometers on the mountain road to school every day.

  …

   After a long time, I chatted with John in front of me for a while to understand the situation of the other party.

  And my own danger perception, from the emotions of the other party, is all positive emotions such as gratitude and excitement.

   Xie Jin nodded silently, and gave the other party a tick in his heart.

   Then signaled the other party to leave, and began to recruit members of his gold rush team.
