Chapter 54: God, what do you believe in? Believe in money!

When Bancroft came out of the shower.

The stench from my body finally dissipated a lot.

The front desk has also delivered meals.

When Gao Jun saw him seeing the food, he swallowed subconsciously and smiled, "Let's sit down and eat together. Umbrella told me about your affairs. We are all friends, so you're welcome."

Boss Gao is a very nice person, he always smiles when he sees him.

Bancroft's expression eased slightly, he nodded, and sat down. Umbrella couldn't wait to ask him what happened.

"I am divorced."

Umbrella paused, "When?"

"Last year when I came home, I found that Barbara had run away with a black man. Li Wa was admitted to the hospital. The doctor said it was acute laryngitis. All the money I had was spent and it was not enough. I begged the doctor to give me some time.

, I’ll collect the money, and when I come back…”

Bancroft's cheeks trembled slightly, he covered his face and cried.

"They just put Liwa in the aisle. No one cared about her. No one. The doctors stopped all his medicines. She was only 7 years old. She was only 7 years old. Why couldn't they save him first!"

In fact, no matter which country it is, it is generally a policy to save lives first and pay later. However, the U.S. medical system owes billions of dollars every year, and this money must be borne by the government, charities, and hospitals.

If many hospitals are unable to operate, they will choose to "purposefully" abandon patients. In the United States, personal bankruptcy = chronic suicide.

When Gao Jun came to study abroad, one of his roommates had a cold and couldn't get up. Just when others were about to call an ambulance, he got up and went to the hospital.

The cost is not generally high.

"Then...you can contact us." Umbrella heard what happened to her old friend, but halfway through her words, she felt stupid.

How to contact?

They are all poor and working hard. Do you think everyone can afford a mobile phone?

"I knelt in the corner of the hospital, prayed to God, and asked him why he didn't save Liwa. She once had such faith, sang with the choir, and was baptized. But at that time, no one answered me at all. That night..." Bancroft wiped

Wiping tears, "God, I fell asleep too."

If a grown man can cry like this, he is really overwhelmed by life.

"No one will save you except yourself..." Gao Jun said.

"If I had a lot of money, would Liwa not have to die? Would we be able to enjoy respect and services? But, I have left blood for this country." Bancroft took something out of his pocket.

A medal, he slapped it on the table, "Why, this thing is of no use at all!"

Gao Jun glanced at it, "How much do you think honor is worth?"

"When you are 18 years old, you think you can change the world. When you are 28, you will know that steak and instant noodles have different prices. For $20, I can buy you 20 of these medals."

Gao Jun gave him a piece of squab, took the medal, and looked around, "Can this be eaten? Only when you are full can you talk about life. Hey, as for the squab, just eat the skin."

The meat tastes terrible.”

Bancroft's voice was low, "I was standing on the streets of Los Angeles, and I saw some people like me who had no food to eat, and some people only ate skin and not meat. I couldn't believe it."

"A lot of things are like this. If you are rich, a group of doctors will come to your home to do a full body examination for you, and then tell you very gently every week what you should pay attention to. If you are poor, then maybe,

You died at home and no one knew."

"But God says that the poor and the rich are equal, but most of us will not harm others even if we don't have money."

"But a city full of poor people will lower GDP.'

bankrupted…

Otherwise, he is no longer a human being.

Do homeless people count as people?

Gao Jun cut the beef on the plate and spoke slowly, "When you have nothing to worry about, having no money is just a matter of what I eat at night. It will not delay my happiness. But when you meet someone

When I wanted to take care of someone, I deeply felt the inferiority complex caused by having no money.”

"In this society, everyone has a sky above their heads. If you have money, you will have a sky. What do you think God believes in? Money! Without money, how can those churches be built? Without money, he can only hang on a cross made of wood. With money,

He can exchange it for gold, that's the difference."

"If you don't have money, go away, Bancroft. This society is cruel, so cruel that it's suffocating." Gao Jun said.

There are always people who still have some illusions about this society.

Stop it…

Don’t you know what kind of goods are on the street and what kind of goods you have?

"You can stay here tonight, you can have a good chat, take this money, and live a good life." Gao Jun took out two U.S. dollars from his pocket and put them on the table.

franklin…

How long have we not seen each other?

In museums and squares, I have never seen money.

"Boss, Bancroft is very capable. He was once the United States lightweight boxing champion and the combat instructor of the 75th Ranger Regiment. Let him join us and his salary can be deducted from me." Umbrella was still very happy.

Honest, I thought about it and said.

Boxing champion?

Gao Jun took a look at this man.

"Bancroft, come back, do you want to be a beggar all the time? Those black people can punch and kick you, and you can defeat them. How sad is Liwa when she sees you like this? You are in her heart,

But the bravest father!" Scottis also chimed in next to him.

The bravest...father.

Bancroft's mind was shaken, and a picture flashed in his mind.

"Liwa, come on, daddy will be back soon after he goes out. You have to listen to the doctor and hold Mickey Mouse tight. He will protect you."

The little girl was lying on the hospital bed with clear eyes. She hugged the doll tightly and looked at her father's already white hair. "Pear baby will be obedient. Come on, daddy."

He turned around and left, busy collecting money, busy borrowing money, busy begging for help, busy... being humble.

"Liwa, Liwa!"

In an instant, the longing and grief that had been suppressed for a long time came after him. Bancroft cried even louder, lying on the table and crying bitterly.

Everyone feels lost sometimes...

No, rich people may not.

The sufferings of the poor are all kinds of strange and varied, but in the final analysis, they all suffer from lack of money.

How can a grown man cry like this?

Gao Jun watched quietly, without urging, just smoking, and the anti-smoking device in the room was triggered.

The security guard and the front desk hurriedly ran up and knocked on the door. Umbrella went to open the door and saw the smell of smoke coming out of it. The front desk said that smoking was not allowed and that there would be a fine.

"Take it, don't worry if it's not enough. Come to me after I draw and deduct the money." Gao Jun came over, took out the money and handed it over.

The person at the front desk was holding US dollars and was in a daze.

"What? Is there anything else?"

"No sir, please be safe."

"It's burned out. I'll continue to pay tomorrow. Don't bother me smoking." Gao Jun's mood was also depressed by Bancroft, and his tone was not very good.

When the door closed, the front desk and the security guard looked at each other.

"Isn't it great to be rich?"

The two of them were grumbling and muttering in their hearts, but they didn't dare to let the people inside hear them.

Gao Jun would definitely say something if he heard it.

"Sorry, having money is really amazing."
