Lisko's American life

Lisko's daily necessities are almost consumed, and he plans to go to the supermarket in town to buy some.

Driving a pickup truck on the road, Lisko listened to the music, shaking his body.

"Look'ifyouhadoneshot'oneopportunity

He was very embarrassed but he did not give up easily

Ishe? No"

Listening to the dynamic rap, Lisko couldn't help but stepped on the accelerator, the car speeded up, and the fast passing wind blew Lisko's hair.

Lisko held the steering wheel with one hand and couldn't help but stick out his hand out of the window. He remembered watching a movie in his previous life, saying that putting his hand out of the car window and holding it out of the car window gave him a special feeling.

The wind blew his palms, and Lisko felt this special feeling.

"Woo~" Lisko screamed strangely and laughed.

The town was not far away, but Lisko drove faster and reached the destination quickly. He parked the car and entered the supermarket.

"Hey, Lee." The cashier at the door greeted Lisko.

This is a girl, her name is Manda, the eldest daughter of rancher Les, who works odd jobs in the supermarket.

Generally speaking, large ranchers like Les are worth a lot of money. As his eldest daughter, he shouldn't have to do odd jobs to earn pocket money.

This is the way of education in the United States. No matter how rich the parents are, the children will still do something else to make money. First, they can use their wages to buy things they like, and they can buy birthday gifts for family members. Parents deliberately cultivate their children's abilities, get in touch with society early, and understand the hardships of making money.

There are many ways to make money like this, such as helping others clean the lawn, delivering newspapers and delivering milk, some working as waiters in cafes and restaurants, and working as gas workers at gas stations.University admissions also appreciate qualifications in this area.

The reason Lisko knew Manda was because she had bought the biscuits she made many times, and Manda was a very interesting person. Lisko had been curious to ask her before, what is the purpose of making money crazy?

"It's to run for mayor in the future as campaign funds." Manda's face was full of seriousness.

"WHY?" Li Ske wondered, no girl wants to be the mayor.

"This way, no one in the town can tell me about my life." She said.

She also made a lot of efforts for this. She made a hand-made campaign card. It was okay to call her brother to help her distribute the campaign flyer with her campaign slogan printed on it, "It's just random election anyway, it's better to vote for Manda." "

Residents in the town also support her very much, but due to age restrictions, she cannot participate in the election, she is only fifteen years old.

Not discouraged, she plans to participate in the election immediately after adulthood. Everyone is very tolerant of the children. Everyone is very serious about calling her the town mayor, including the current town elder Dairis, and regard her as her successor. .

She also carefully made her own plans after taking office. The first thing was to establish a fire brigade.

There used to be a fire brigade in Garrison, but it was cancelled by short-sighted town residents because of nothing happened all year round. The government moved the fire brigade to Schenck if there was no way, so Garrison does not have it now. Firefighter.

However, in recent years, wildfires have been raging, so the residents of the town are a little worried. Garrison is backed by the Rocky Mountains. Although wildfires have not occurred so far, this is a high-risk zone. The town’s finances are in crisis and it is not enough to rebuild. Fire, this matter was put on hold.

"Hey, Mayor Manda." Lisko beckoned, took the basket and went to select items.

The supermarket in the small town is not too small, and Lisko has everything you need to buy here.

"toilet paper,

Drink,

Toiletries,

There are also some snacks."

Lisko bought one by one according to the list he wrote at home. Like him, he basically doesn’t need to buy agricultural and sideline foods. He has meat and vegetables at his own home. Lisko also saw packaged vegetables with his own label on the vegetable counter. .

Carrying a basket to check out, he soon arrived, because today is not a well-known discount day, so not many people come to the supermarket to buy.

American aunts like Maggie’s age are also like those in China. They will choose special discount days in supermarkets when they buy things. They can buy items that are about to pass the permitted sale period at a very small price, such as milk bread, vegetables and meat. In this way, it also clears the inventory of the merchants and allows them to buy food at a much lower price than usual. This is how many poor families live.

Li Scott deliberately chose the toll channel Manda.

"Hey, Manda, haven't the campaign funds raised yet?" Lisko drew his wallet.

"Hey, don't mention it, I played baseball last month and broke the neighbor's car glass and lost a lot of money." Manda complained, and her subordinates are still very quick. This is also her part-time job. Reasons for popularity.

Li Sike smiled and her little face was full of the look of a fan.

"Okay, Lee, a total of fifty-seven dollars." Manda scanned the code and looked at the number displayed on the cash register.

Liske took out a hundred Franklin and handed it to her. She simply entered the amount of money received on the cash register.

When I was in China, I always heard that Americans are very poor in mathematics. Lisko has never had a good concept. Until living here, I realized that Americans are not very poor in mathematics.

Don’t look at Manda now as a student. She has already entered junior high school at the age of twelve. She still doesn’t understand how much Lisko needs to be recovered after one hundred dollars minus fifty-seven dollars. The appearance of the cash register has saved many cash registers. Personnel, otherwise the supermarket accounts must have suffered heavy losses. The current cash register enters the amount of money received, and it will automatically show how much it needs to be recovered.

Lisko bid farewell to the supermarket and put the purchased items in the back of the pickup truck. This is why Lisko likes to open this on weekdays. Generally, daily purchases can be stored at will. There is a lot of space. In the United States, labor is very expensive. , If you buy a lot of things and want supermarket delivery, then you really need to pay another sum of money.
