Alta stood up, said sorry, and chased Natalie. "What's wrong with these two girls?" Zhang Xiuying glanced at her son.
"Maybe it's because I was too tired the past few days," Li Han said.
Jennifer showed a smile but said nothing. Lingna glanced at Jennifer and Li Han, who looked confused, and shook her head slightly.
Bella paused slightly and glanced at Jennifer from the corner of her eye. "Today's chicken soup tastes really great. Auntie, your cooking is getting better and better."
"Haha, I didn't stew this chicken soup." Zhang Xiuying said with a smile.
Bella groaned and was embarrassed to stick out her tongue. "Is it Aunt Xu?"
"Little Han made the stew." Aunt Xu said with a smile. "Originally, the eldest sister made the stew, but Xiao Han was worried that we would be busy and couldn't take care of it, so he did it himself."
"Thank you so much, Han."
"This is what I should do. For the grass seeds and Hank cattle, you have worked hard all the way." Li Han said. "Originally, I wanted you to have another day off tomorrow, but who wants to worry about the cave?
It actually alarmed the Ranch Association."
"Pasture Association?" Bella was a little confused. "What does this matter have to do with the Ranch Association?"
"Texas is a little different from Montana. If the ranch wants to develop tourism, it needs the permission of the Ranch Association." Li Han said. "The current situation of St. Andy's farm and the development of tourism are not favored by others."
"Leave this matter to me." Bella said.
"I'll go with you tomorrow," Li Han said. "I've almost prepared the information here."
The next day, early in the morning, Li Han and Bella came to the Ranch Association with information about the St. Andy farm and some data on the cave.
"St. Andy's Farm?"
"Yes."
"Are you Mr. Hank?"
"No, my surname is Li." Li Han said.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry." The young man who received the message said, "Please follow me."
The young receptionist led Li Han and Bella to an office. "The Texas Ranching Association is somewhat similar to the Department of Agriculture."
Bella nodded, and the office workers pushed aside. A white man in his fifties stood up with a smile. "Hello, Mr. Li, nice to meet you."
"This is the vice president of the Ranch Association, Mr. Bloomfield."
"Hello, Mr. Bloomfield." Li Han smiled and stretched out his hand to shake.
"Who is this?"
"Bella, from Hank's farm in Montana." Bella nodded slightly.
"Hello Miss Bella, please take a seat." Louis Bloomfield asked the two of them to sit down, poured two cups of coffee and handed them to them.
"I invited Mr. Li here this time to do some research on the application you submitted," Louis said.
"The discovery of a rare cave at St. Andy's Farm is a surprise. On behalf of the association, I would like to congratulate you."
"Thanks."
Louis sat down. "Mr. Li, the association has done some investigation into the current situation of St. Andy's Farm. Please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter. I think there is nothing to hide about the situation at St. Andy's Farm." Li Han picked up the coffee. It didn't taste as good as the coffee he cultivated himself. Maybe he was used to drinking it.
"Okay, Mr. Li, I think you are aware of the situation at St. Andy's Farm. The termites are rampant and the drought has led to the degradation of more pastures. These are all worrying for the association." Louis said. "St. Andy's Farm is a farm in southeast Texas.
Department, one of the oldest farms.”
Li Han said nothing and just nodded.
Louis continued, "The two sales of St. Andy's Farm caused many cowboys to lose their jobs. This makes people worry that St. Andy's Farm will become a noun and disappear until Mr. Lee comes."
"Thank you." Li Han didn't expect that this middle-aged man would put a high hat on himself.
St. Andy Farm hired Tim and more than a dozen cowboys to solve the employment problem of more than ten people. This is a great thing. You must know that employment is a big problem in the current situation in the United States.
There is even a situation where immigrants invest US$500,000, recruit ten employees, and get green cards immediately. Li Hanke is waiting for Mr. Bloomfield's next words.
"It's a joy," said Louis. "Of course, pasture restoration and care on a farm is an important thing."
"The cowboys will complete these tasks very well." Louis said, and Li Han felt that it was necessary to remind him. "Mr. Bloomfield, you are right, yes, St. Andy Farm has introduced a cowboy
After approving the grass seeds, we will take the next time to plant them, and then plow and replant the degraded and termite-eroded pastures.”
Louis nodded. "This is gratifying. The association will provide as much help as it can."
"Thank you so much."
"That's what the association is supposed to do." Louis Bloomfield, hesitantly, asked about the source of the grass seed and heard it came from the Hank Farm in Montana.
"No, no, Mr. Li, I think you should reconsider. The environments in Texas and Montana are very different. It is difficult for Montana grass species to adapt to the Texas environment." Louis Bloomfield, although he did not say it explicitly, Louis
I mean, I don’t have much trust in Montana farm grass seeds.
Bella smiled. "Mr. Bloomfield, the grass seeds in Hank's farm are excellent in drought and insect resistance. This is what St. Andy's Farm needs."
"Okay, Mr. Li, if you need anything, please contact the association." Louis Bloomfield then remembered that this lady came from the Hank Farm in Montana.
"Don't know about the cave development application?" Li Han asked.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Li, you need to wait another three months." Louis Bloomfield said.
"Why?"
Li Han, a little angry.
"Mr. Li, this is the association's regulation. The prerequisite for a farm to develop tourism is that the farm has a good ecological environment." Louis Bloomfield said. "The situation of St. Andy's Farm is worrying."
"No, Louis, maybe you don't know that the termite control work on St. Andy's Farm is almost completed, and grass seed planting is about to begin. I think the pasture will soon undergo earth-shaking changes," Li Han said.
Louis Bloomfield did not say anything to Li Han and promised Li Han nothing. He just said he was sorry.
After leaving the association building, Li Han looked back at the association building. "These stubborn guys."
"Han, we need to defeat these stubborn old men with facts." Bella said.
"You are right, grass seeds must be planted as soon as possible." Li Han said.
"Mr. Bloomfield, application materials for St. Andy's Farm?" the assistant asked in a low voice.
"Put them in the filing cabinet first. I don't think I will need them for a short time."
"ah?"
"Use grass from a farm in Montana." Louis Bloomfield shook his head slightly.
"It's a stupid decision to use grass from the Montana farm." The young assistant looked at the information bag. "Perhaps, we can use it this year."
Assistant, it’s a pity to put the information at the end and lock it. “It’s a pity that St. Andy’s Farm will be deserted again this year.”
The name of St. Andy's Farm is extremely resounding throughout Cotulla. However, in recent years, St. Andy's Farm has encountered misfortunes one after another. It changed owners twice and its vitality was severely damaged. This owner was even more stupid and made a shocking move.
Joke decision.
"St. Andy's Farm is being plowed and grass seeds are being planted."
"I heard about this. They said it was grass seed bought from that desolate place in Montana. It's really ridiculous."
"Texas grassland uses Montana grass seeds. This Chinese boy's imagination is really admirable."
"What should we do?" A group of cowboys in the corner of the bar whispered.
"I want to find Tim and ask about this."
"Yes, that Chinese boy promised us that he would definitely give us a job this year. Now, it seems that it is too difficult. That boy is lying to us."
"That's right, using Montana grass seeds, how can it be possible to grow good pasture?"
"This decision is so stupid."
"Let's go find Tim."
"You must ask clearly about this matter."
"Perhaps we still have a chance."
A group of cowboys drank the beer from their glasses and hurried out of the bar.
"It's those idiots from St. Andy's."
"That's right, John."
"I heard that the new owner of St. Andy's Farm is a Chinese."
"Yes, a Chinese boy who doesn't understand farming."
"Poor guy."
"St. Andy's Farm, that's a hot barbecue. If you want to taste the delicious barbecue, you need a pair of hands that are not afraid of heat."
"It's a pity that the Chinese boy doesn't understand this and actually buys a farm grass seed that he has never heard of. The climate is completely different from Texas grass seed. This is really a big joke that can make a three-year-old child laugh.
.”
Bars, ranch associations, and forage companies are all talking about it. Not to mention these, there are also many opinions within St. Andy Farm.
"Boss, I hope you can think about it again." Eric said, looking directly at Li Han.
"Tim, Bendorf, what do you think?" Li Han looked at Tim, Bendorf, and asked.
"My opinion is the same as Eric's," said Bendorf. "Boss, I think this matter of grass planting needs to be carefully considered."
Although Tim didn't say anything, his meaning was similar. He had some objections to Li Han's insistence on using Hank Farm grass seeds.
Bella stood up. "Hello, I am Bella from Hank's farm. Hank grass seed is a new grass seed cultivated by Han over several years."
"Perhaps, everyone still has doubts about this new grass species." Bella said. "I am here to introduce some advantages of this new grass species."
"Hank grass has the advantages of drought and insect resistance, high yield, and fast growth," Bella said.
"Miss Bella, let me remind you," Eric said. "This is Texas, a place with a completely different climate and environment from Montana."
"Yes, I know." Bella said. "Yesterday, Han and I planted a hundred acres."
"ah."
The three of them were stunned.
"Since everyone has doubts, I thought it would be a good idea to use 100 acres of termites to destroy the grassland for an experiment," Li Han said.
"All right."
Although the three of them were not very optimistic about the trial planting, it could be seen that Li Han insisted, and the three of them chose wisely and agreed.
