My friend Shen Lang learned about the concept of "pound" from the section "The Merchant of Venice" in the textbook, and then also recognized the concept of "pound". Of course, Shen Lang's understanding of the pound is much later than his understanding of the "dollar".

The Royal Mint Museum is said to have a 1839 £5 gold coin in its collection.

On the back of the coin is a portrait of Yuna riding a lion. Such a carving material should be taken from the work of "The Fairy Queen" by the English Renaissance poet Spencer. Yuna, the symbol of Queen Victoria, was loyally guarded by the lion, the symbol of Great Britain, in the process of searching for knights to slaughter the dragon.

Now, more than 100 years have passed, and the British Empire has reached the year 2007. In London, the London Police Service should take on the lion's mission to eradicate evil, fight crime, and use its perseverance and bravery to guard the order. and stability.

In the police station, a senior patrol officer named Nicholas Angel brought this lion spirit to the fullest. As a police officer, catching thieves and solving cases seems to have become more and more his greatest or even the only pleasure, and he never tires of it. , Forgetting to eat and sleep, if this goes on, of course, the girlfriend will not be happy. And Nicholas Angel also fully listened to his girlfriend's opinions and suggestions on getting along with the two, and he quickly made changes. For example, he said goodbye to his girlfriend, and he himself proposed it. This time, for Nicholas Angel, there is no more worries.

It is conceivable that Nicholas Angel soon became the most dedicated and capable police officer in the police department. He single-handedly made the crime rate in the entire city of London drop significantly, and the law and order improved significantly. Zhong Xiaoxiao temporarily avoided the edge and resigned decisively.

Good rain knows the season, and it happened in the first place. Soon, the award given by the Prime Minister was awarded, and Nicholas Angel was promoted to the sheriff. The police station also made appropriate arrangements and dispatched Nicholas Angel to the small town of Sandford to maintain public order.

When my friend Shen Lang reviewed the economic law from 2014 to 2015, he once again learned the so-called phenomenon of "bad money drives out good money".

In the 16th century, which was still the era of coinage circulation, Gresham, director of the Elizabeth Mint in England, accidentally discovered in practice that people were accustomed to retaining and storing currency with high fineness (high content of precious metals), and at the same time they were accustomed to using low fineness (low content of precious metals, A currency with a lot of impurities) is traded in the market. This led to the conclusion that bad money drives out good money. Therefore, this law is also called "Gresham's Law".

Before the mid-17th century, gold was unquestionably good money.

Since the late 17th century, with the establishment of British hegemony in the world, the British pound has gradually displaced gold and has become the hard currency in international settlements and a well-known world currency.

In 1944, at the United Nations International Monetary and Financial Conference, the U.S. dollar replaced gold and the British pound as the main tool for international payments and international reserves, and the gold standard entered the era of the U.S. dollar standard. Shen Lang was also at this time. , just realized the meaning of "US dollar". Of course, it was also from this time that the US dollar displaced the pound and became the most important world currency.

In 2007, Nicholas Angel, a senior patrolman of the London Metropolitan Police, contrasted the existence of his teammates with his lion-like presence. His actions exposed the inaction of his colleagues in the police department.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

In the dark, Nicholas Angel was crowded out of London by the leaders and his colleagues, and was sent to the remote and remote town of Sandford. If nothing else, it would be impossible to return to the city of London. one thing.

Good money like Nicholas Angel was expelled.

On the day of the expulsion, colleagues celebrated it with unprecedented enthusiasm. They opened the champagne and held roses. Looking at such bright roses, did Nicholas Angel think of his former lover for a moment?

I still remember that in 2013, Shen Lang invited Ye Kai to Zhengzhou to participate in his graduation ceremony. At that time, if Ye Kai remembered correctly, the tulips in the Green Expo Park should be like his good buddies' graduation. Opened and waited to wither.

Take a tour of the Green Expo Park.

Ye Kai took a photo of Shen Lang and Zhu Qiqi in front of the sculptures of Cowherd and Weaver Girl in the garden. A pair of bi people who are out of date, and a pair of bi people who are stable and stable in the world, once the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win but there are countless people in the world.

And finally couldn't be together.

The river water blows the west wind, and the river flowers turn red in the evening. Abandoned by the flute, blowing through the chaos of Shandong.

Zhu Qiqi went to Shandong, and Shen Lang also went to Shanxi.

Back in 2007, sheriff Nicholas Angel arrived at Sandford Township.

If you don't have any personal emotions, you can find that Sandford Town is a good place when you first arrive. In the words of the people in the town, first of all, there has been no vicious crime in the town for decades. The people are simple and friendly. ; and secondly, thanks to the presence of Leslie Tiller, a wonderful landscaper, the town of Sandford is delightful, even famous, all year round!

In this way, because of such people (simple and good people), things (no vicious crimes, safe and sound), things (beautiful scenery, IKEA and IKEA), Sandford Town has repeatedly been selected as the best village of the year. .

Yes, gardening, especially roses.

Is it possible that the roses presented by colleagues on the day Nicholas Angel left were bought from the small town of Sandford?

A place like a peach blossom, a peach blossom like existence,

Nicholas Angel also imagined the future, and planned for the long-term. He also hoped that twenty years later, in such a peach blossom garden, he would only sit in front of the flowers when he was sober, and he would fall asleep when he was drunk. Half-awake and half-drunk day after day, flowers bloom year after year.

It was also based on the chat records of Nicholas Angel in his spare time that the leader appointed him to Sandford Town, but for Nicholas Angel, the plan was advanced by a full twenty years.

In the city of London, Nicholas Angel's girlfriend Jenny was already angry: "Yeah, according to your current work status, you are afraid that you are not married to the police, right?"

Shen Lang thought that Nicholas Angel was evading the important points without any scheming: "Well, in fact, we don't call it a 'public security department', we all call it a 'public security department' now. Because, the official guide said it very clearly, saying that 'Organ', too aggressive."

Jenny: "...".

In the Sandford Town Sheriff's Office, Frank Butterman was introducing all his colleagues to Nicholas Angel: "This is Doris Cottager, and she's the only policewoman in our town."

Shen Lang further affirmed the conclusion that Nicholas Angel was unintentionally avoiding the important and taking the light seriously: "Well, she is not a female police officer, she is a police officer, and it has nothing to do with whether she is a woman or not."

At the scene of the crime, when answering "a car accident disaster", rookie Danny was again mentioned by Nicholas Angel; "The official guidelines stipulate that we will no longer be called 'disasters' by such incidents, but called Call it 'conflict'. Because 'accident' implies that no one is to blame."

So, here comes the question:

changed the name,

Wouldn't it be possible to avoid the violent nature of law enforcement agencies/organizations by calling them "public security agencies" instead of 'public security agencies'?

Wouldn't it be possible to avoid the masculinization of women on the front lines of police service by calling them "police officers" instead of "women police officers"?

Is it possible to avoid the horror of the crime scene by calling it a 'conflict' instead of a 'disaster'?

changed place,

Could it be that the male lion is no longer a male lion when he arrives at Peach Blossom Spring?

Aren't the roses of the City of London the same roses as the roses of Sandford?

If the roses given by colleagues on the day Nicholas Angel left were bought from the town of Sandford, then, did the teens who resigned decisively from the city of London also retire to the peach blossoms of Sandford? ?

Roses are still roses, and Peach Blossom Spring is no longer Peach Blossom Spring.

Xiaoxiao or Xiaoxiao, the lion is no longer a lion fighting alone.

Going back 90 years, in 1917, the British poet Sigriff Sassoon once wrote such a verse in "In me, past, present, future meet": In me the tiger sniffs the rose.

90 years forward, in 2007, Nicholas Angel is still as brave as a lion, but just like the 1839 gold coin worth 5 pounds, in addition to the lion engraved on the back, the front is also cast with Queen Victoria in full bloom. The classic profile too!

Now Nicholas Angel, on the road through the city of London, is returning to his heart like an arrow, his rose, his queen, his Jenny, must still be waiting for him!
