Chapter 3 Farm for Sale
On the afternoon of the third day after Ryan released the news, Ryan brought in a white man. This man was not tall and wore a baggy suit with a plush coat outside the suit. He looked like a decent man.
p>
When Ryan saw George, he introduced: "George, this is Mr. Roddy Wood, the owner of the farm to the north."
Then he said to Roddy Wood: "Mr. Roddy Wood, this is George Orwell, the owner of this farm."
At this time, George took the initiative to reach out his hand and said: "Hello, Mr. Roddy Wood, it's an honor to meet you. Please sit down!"
Roddy Wood laughed and said: "Nice to meet you too, George Orwell."
The three of them sat down respectively. At this time, Aunt Ally also put three cups of coffee on the table, then turned and left. At this time, Ryan, who was sitting next to him, said: "George, Mr. Wood, I came here this time because I heard that you intend to sell.
Farm, so I want to talk to you."
Roddy Wood also continued: "Yes, George Orwell, you know, my farm is just north of here, and I have always wanted to expand the farm. You see, I just heard that you are planning to sell the farm, and I
Just contact Ryan and come to see you."
George replied: "Yes, Mr. Roddy Wood, I am going to leave here to go to college, and Uncle Ryan is going to follow me to take care of me. There is no way to continue running the farm, so if the price is right, I think I will be happy to give it to him."
Sell it out."
Roddy Wood smiled and said: "That's great, do you mind if I visit your farm?"
George replied: "Of course, I will take you there right now." Then, accompanied by Ryan, the three of them took a general look around the farm. After all, Mr. Wood was too fat and did not have the physical strength to walk all the way.
.
Just half an hour later, at the gate of the farm, Roddy Wood shook hands with George and said: "The farm is very good, and the sheep are well raised. I will arrange for someone to come over and take a closer look at the situation of the farm. If
If there’s no problem, we can talk about the price.”
"Okay, Mr. Roddy Wood, you are welcome to come at any time." George replied.
Sure enough, if one sincerely wants to buy and the other sincerely sells, things will be done quickly. Half a month later, under the witness of the lawyers of both parties, the transfer contract was quickly signed.
The final 4,500 acres of land, all livestock, a few pieces of machinery, and the two-story building where George and his family lived were sold to Roddy Wood for $450,000.
Roddy Wood also signed the check on the spot and paid the full amount, and George cashed the check and deposited it in the bank as soon as he got it. In this way, George, together with the deposits left by his parents, had 46
Thousands of dollars.
Reminiscent of what George learned in his last life in 2020, the price of agricultural land in the United States at that time was US$4,100 per acre, and the price of pasture land was US$1,200 per acre. Based on this price, the farm and pasture owned by George should be worth 1,800 US dollars.
It looks like about 10,000 U.S. dollars, and 1 U.S. dollar in 1920 is equivalent to about 60 U.S. dollars in 2020. Then we can conclude that 18 million in 2020 is equivalent to 300,000 U.S. dollars in 1920. Nearly 200 cattle are valued at 120,000 U.S. dollars, so together with
All the existing crops on the land were packaged together to arrive at a price of 450,000.
Both parties are quite satisfied with this price. George's side wants to sell this time bomb quickly. Roddy Wood's side, because they don't know the future trend, directly get a piece of land that can be harvested in the coming year. So they are very happy.
, and the lawyers of both parties had dinner together at a local high-end restaurant that night.
During dinner, when he saw Ryan and the others drinking wine, George suddenly remembered something. The next day, George wrote a check for 20,000 dollars and gave another one thousand US dollars in cash. He asked Ryan to go to the largest city in Tennessee.
, I went to Memphis to buy a batch of relatively rare and various wines available on the market.
Ryan didn't understand very much and thought that George shouldn't spend it on pleasure as soon as he got the money. He even gave George advice for more than an hour.
But George knows that some things are said casually without any warning when they have not happened. What to do if it does not happen, and how to explain it if it does happen.
So there is no explanation, just keep it secret, because there is really no way to tell. If the quantity is small, you can convince Ryan by giving it away, but this is wine worth 20,000 US dollars. It is not the kind of wine that will last for decades or even a hundred years.
The rare wine is ridiculously expensive. Even if George wanted to buy that kind of wine, he couldn't buy it! If he just bought some relatively rare wine that can be bought on the market. The quantity of this wine would be a bit too much, if it weren't for George's age
It’s not enough. In fact, it’s the safest to go by yourself. So Ryan still needs to come forward to handle this. In fact, if a bottle of wine is 10 US dollars, 20,000 US dollars is equivalent to buying 2,000 bottles of various wines.
A week later, Ryan came back with nearly 1,500 bottles of wine, mostly bourbon produced in the United States, but they were all relatively high-quality wines. Because of this, Ryan didn't smile for several days.
George rented a warehouse in the town in advance and used it for a week. Ryan came back and stored the wine in the warehouse. The next day, George used the school lunch break to run to the warehouse and put all the wine into the space.
You can collect the space as soon as you touch it, which is very convenient.
This is just an attempt by George. If it fails, there will be no loss. These wines will not go bad if left in space. Since they are all good wines, they all have preservation value.
In the contract, except for the fact that the property will be delivered in June next year, all other land and other things will belong to Roddy Wood from the moment George gets the check.
After all, George still has to complete the last few months of school and needs to live on the farm for a while. There is absolutely no need to move out and rent a new house now.

After finishing the farm affairs, it was time for George to start school. In this way, George studied at school during the day, participated in various activities, and went home at night to continue preparing for the exam. Time flew by.
On January 1, 1920, after dinner, George returned to the room early without reading. Because today was the day when George was going to extract items again. George lay on the bed, and his mind entered the chaotic space again. Now this space has
It is nearly one-third larger than a month ago, with a volume of nearly 130 cubic meters.
In addition to the wine stored in the space, George also put some fruits, snacks and drinking water. Anyway, the space is large enough and it is vacuum inside, and it also has a heat preservation function. What does the food look like when it is put in, and what happens when it is taken out?
Like this. Put some things for your own convenience, and the dagger was also placed here by George. And the coiled dragon handle he likes will also be stored in the space when he is not playing with it.
Some things were scattered aside and did not attract George's attention. George sensed that the space was filled with a mist, which was the energy gathered these days. According to George's previous calculation, the estimate was 30 energy points. At this time
George focused his attention on the "Three Thousand Worlds" at the top. George looked at one of the relatively bright stars. As his consciousness explored inside, the 30 points of energy in the gathering place also flowed towards the stars. George
A light ball was extracted directly. The light ball was crushed, and a piece of information flow was directly integrated into the consciousness. This star is the world of "Naruto", and what was extracted just now is a set of skills called Three Body Techniques, which also comes with a method of refining chakra.
.
With the fusion of skills, there is also an energy in George's body that can be sensed by George.
George had watched this anime in his previous life. In Naruto, the levels of ninjas are generally divided into genin, chunin, jounin and shadow.
In the original work, the test for promotion from a ninja school to a genin is usually based on the three body techniques taught in the school, that is, the clone technique, the double technique, and the transformation technique. All three are used to save one's life.
Because George directly learns the use of skills when he acquires them, George can cast spells without seals without having to practice seal gestures as mentioned in the information.
George got up directly and went to the middle of the house to experiment with the skills he had just acquired. After half an hour, he finally mastered the three skills thoroughly and turned them into instincts, which he could use with a single thought.
Although it is said that you can learn all the skills directly after extracting the skills. However, I have never practiced it myself, and I always feel a bit disconnected. This will no longer happen now.
Looking at the two figures standing next to them who looked like real people, I couldn't help but sigh at the magic of the Chaos Bead. After contacting me, I also roughly understood the general principle of the Three Body Technique:
The clone created by the clone technique is just a phantom, and flaws can be observed.
After reaching the proficiency level, it will advance to the Shadow Clone Technique, which is actually an evolved version of the Clone Technique. It can create the same body as the caster, and the chakra will be equally distributed to each clone. It is a relatively common clone technique.
The created phantoms and shadow clone techniques can be said to have no flaws. George can now create up to three shadow clones at a time.
Transfiguration is actually the art of change. You can change yourself into a certain person. After George directly learns it, he can basically maintain the state that the energy in the body is not used up. Moreover, both men and women can change, which is enough.
It's called the LSP skill. George swore he would never change into a woman in his life.
Substitute Jutsu, one of the basic ninjutsu, can instantly switch the identity of an animal/plant with one's own to avoid attacks. Like other techniques, it has an advanced level of Substitute Technique. The Substitute Jutsu is the most practical in the entire "Naruto"
It is also a very powerful ninjutsu. It is assumed that no matter how the opponent attacks, the target of the attack is just a piece of wood, and the user can counterattack at any time and anywhere. Since the ninjutsu is also completed in an instant, it is also classified as a teleportation technique.<
/p>
As for the chakra refining technique, George felt that he did not need to practice it at all. Because after half an hour of practicing the Three Body Technique, the chakra that appeared in the body was not exhausted. Every time a skill is used, a little chakra is consumed, and the body
It will be directly replenished back inside. If you practice the Three Body Technique continuously for half an hour, after just five minutes of rest, the energy will return to its previous saturated state.
George then ran the Chakra Refining Technique to experiment, but did not feel the total amount of chakra energy increase. In this case, it was completely meaningless for George to practice it. Maybe there will be more consumption skills in the future.
It’s also a good idea to use refining techniques as a means of replenishing energy.
George speculated that the reason why his energy did not increase may be related to his body. Maybe in the future, as his physical fitness improves, the total amount of energy will also increase. At this stage, he can only let it go.
After resting for a while, George practiced his skills for another half an hour, and then slowly calmed down the restlessness in his heart. In fact, it is not difficult to understand. Although he got his golden finger two months ago, but looking at the previous
What are you waiting for?
A storage space that can only be used as a warehouse now, a piece of gold, a piece of jade, a dagger, a knife, and a skill like a chef.
This reminds George that in the future, as long as he withdraws with peace of mind, he will be able to achieve financial freedom. This is a perfect urban drama golden finger!
However, today's skills made George suspect that the world is far from as simple as he saw. Because the experience of the previous life told George that you should never regard yourself as the most special one, you will never be the luckiest.<
/p>
Just like George's last life, when he graduated from graduate school, in an era when undergraduates were all highly educated, he had just entered a training company and was still a representative of the company's front-line staff. But what about two years later? Masters and turtles all appeared.
It's not about being diligent and honest at work, the key is to work overtime honestly and not ask for overtime pay, so that you can stay in the company, otherwise you would have been fired long ago.
I didn’t notice that my colleague who was also a graduate student came to check and left again. It completely explained what it means to be an iron camp and a flowing soldier!
And the restlessness in his heart is not only the impulse of "carrying a sharp blade and having a murderous intention" when George obtained the martial arts skills for the first time, but also an inexplicable uneasiness, as if something might happen at any time, and there is no sense of security.
After finally calming down, George lay back on the bed and secretly decided to collect information about this world.
However, communication still relies on telegraphs. Most people have never been far away from the place where they were born. In an era when the only information obtained from the outside world was newspapers, it is not that simple to understand something in depth. It seems that Uncle Dorian is still needed to communicate. I hope he can
Give yourself some surprises.
