Chapter 1224 The root of the problem

Regarding the fact that he found the silent pickup truck and the body of the previous owner of the farm at the pool, Xue Chen had no intention of telling Gao Dewei yet, and decided to clarify the matter first.

Agreeing to his proposal, Gao Dewei took a can of high-end tea and drove him to the Odin Farm next door to put it away.

There was a spiked iron fence surrounding the main entrance of Odin Farm. As soon as the car arrived at the entrance, a dog barking was heard from inside. Several big dogs barked at the two of them through the fence inside the gate.

They are also all fierce dogs, Pitbull, Cane Corso and Tosa originating from Japan...

Further inside the fence is a group of buildings. Compared to the slightly older houses in Ethan Farm, Odin Farm looks much better.

"Don't you plan to change the name of the farm?" Xue Chen asked casually.

"Well, I have thought about it, but I haven't thought of a suitable name yet, and changing the name is not a very important thing. When I think of a good one, I will change it to a new name and the person will come out."

After waiting for two minutes, someone finally walked out of the house and came to the front door. Both of them had met yesterday.

Xue Chen and the others got out of the car. Gao Dewei smiled kindly, walked forward and said loudly: "Hello, I have bought the Ethan farm next door. From now on, we are neighbors.

Today, my friends and I are here as guests, so I hope I won’t disturb you all.”

The door opened and the two of them walked in.

"Welcome both of you, I am the owner of Odin Farm, Claude, and this is my friend, Ankinson." Claude is nearly 1.9 meters tall and has a very strong body.

He has a very strong aura, and his eyes are full of sharpness and aggression when looking at people.

"This is a small gift. I hope you like it." Gao Dewei took out the tea can he brought.

Claude chuckled and took it: "Thank you, please come in."

Xue Chen followed him and walked inside, looking around casually. Unlike Ethan Farm, Odin Farm was very quiet. The reason why it was quiet was because there were no livestock in the farm, except for a few dogs.

Surprisingly, there were no other livestock.

Ethan Farm is very rich, including cattle and sheep, chickens, and even horses. It can be like a zoo. You can hear the neighing of various livestock all the time, which makes the farm full of life.

angry.

After entering the house, Xue Chen and Gao Dewei were invited to sit down in the living room and were treated to coffee.

Claude sat across from the two of them, took a sip of coffee, then raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "It's nice to meet you two. Since we are neighbors, we will inevitably help each other in the future."

"Of course." Gao Dewei was in a good mood. He felt that the neighbor next door was quite easy to talk to. He was not as unkind as old Tony said. This was what he wanted to see. After all, he had just arrived in a foreign country.

It is very lucky to have a good neighbor.

However, Claude's next words made Gao Dewei feel not so good again.

"But I have something to tell you. I don't like uninvited guests, especially others entering my farm without permission. Therefore, I hope you can remember this and not allow others to enter my farm without permission."

If you enter the scope of Odin's farm before getting my permission, I will be very unhappy."

Claude glanced at Gao Dewei and Xue Chen with uncertain eyes.

Gao Dewei coughed lightly and agreed vaguely: "Well, of course, it was rude at that time."

Xue Chen, on the other hand, had no reaction and looked calmly at the man in front of him who didn't look like a farmer.

Yes, in his eyes, the temperament of this man named Claude and the man named Ankinson beside him were not like those who ran a farm. In his opinion, they were more like those who were engaged in other businesses.

Before entering the house, he observed the crops grown in the distance on the farm from a distance. They were basically the same types as those grown on Ethan's farm, but in terms of growth status, they were much different.

He is from a rural background, so he still has some common sense. Even if the seeds of the crops grown on two adjacent farms are different, because the environment, climate and other natural conditions are the same, the growth status of the plants should be similar, and there will not be much difference.

gap.

Although the crops on Odin Farm are not withered, they are growing very poorly and are destined to not have a good harvest. Why is this happening? There is only one possibility: it is caused by lack of good care.

It is unjustifiable for someone who runs a farm but does not take good care of the crops on the farm. So maybe it means that the farmer’s thoughts are not on running the farm?

"Mr. Claude, how long have you been running Odin Farm?" Xue Chen, who had never spoken a word, asked as he looked at the owner of the farm.

Claude glanced at Xue Chen casually: "Oh, I think it has been seven years."

"Seven years." Xue Chen said to himself, "That should be a long time. During this period, he should have experienced three neighbors. Then Mr. Claude must know Mr. Ethan.

Already?"

"Ethan?"

Claude made a recalling expression, touched his chin with one hand, and then said with a faint smile, of course he remembered, but he didn't have much communication with Ethan, so the impression was already very weak, and he no longer remembered Ethan's appearance.

.

As soon as Ethan was mentioned, Gao Dewei also became interested and said puzzledly: "I heard that Mr. Ethan has disappeared. Mr. Claude, do you know about this? How did Mr. Ethan disappear? How could it happen?

Missing?"

Claude shook his head and said that he was not very sure: "I wonder if Mr. Ethan might have encountered a black bear or a lynx, a large and ferocious wild animal in the mountains, and then encountered an accident."

At this moment, there was a bang in the living room, and the three people present subconsciously looked at Xue Chen.

Xue Chen stared at Claude and said sorry, accidentally kicking the coffee table.

After doing this for less than half an hour, Xue Chen signaled to Gao Dewei with his eyes that he could leave.

After walking out of the gate and getting back into the car, Gao Dewei saw the backs of Claude and Ankinson and muttered: "You are so stingy. My can of tea costs at least 30,000 yuan, and I didn't even keep it."

We two brothers are having a casual meal. Could it be that Canadians are so bad at hospitality?"

Turning his head to look at Gao Dewei, who was complaining like an animal, Xue Chen leaned back on his chair and began to think. With his mind-reading ability and his deliberate guidance, he successfully figured out what he wanted to know.

He very much hoped that Ethan's death was an accident and had nothing to do with the neighbors on the farm next door, but now it seemed that the situation was still developing in a not-so-good direction.

Ethan, Gao Dewei's previous and previous farm owner, was also the origin of the name of Ethan's farm. This man's death was indeed closely related to the farm next door.

That person, Claude, who was killed by the people from the farm next door, was involved!

As for why? The reason is very simple, because Ethan once entered Odin Farm and accidentally discovered a big secret of Odin Farm, that is, opium poppies are grown in Odin Farm, which is used to make the drug heroin.

Raw materials!

Ethan accidentally stumbled upon such a big secret of Odin's farm, which was the reason why he would die and sink his body in the pool.

After hearing these real voices from Claude's heart, Xue Chen finally understood many problems. Why did this man repeatedly refuse others to enter the farm? He just didn't want the same thing to happen to Ethan again.

.

This is why yesterday, people from the Odin Farm appeared at the pool. This is also the reason. Firstly, they entered the scope of the Odin Farm, and they were also worried about the occurrence of wildfires. Once a wildfire occurs, there will inevitably be a large number of people.

Officials from the government were fighting the fire. At that time, there were so many people and it was difficult to guarantee that nothing would be discovered.

In the same way, we can also easily understand why the crops in Odin's farm are not growing very well. These people do not really want to run the farm at all. They use knowledge as a guise to grow poppies for production.

Raw materials for drugs.

On the way back, Xue Chen kept thinking in his head. Now he knew the root cause of the whole thing, but the problem was how to solve it properly.

The idea of ​​calling the police flashed through his mind, but he quickly rejected it. He couldn't call the police, at least, not now.

The Odin Farm has existed for seven or eight years, and as expected, it has been growing poppies. The question is, does the local police have no information, so that the Odin Farm can continue to exist, or do the people of the Odin Farm have the energy to take care of the local poppies?

police?

If it is the latter, then once he calls the police, it will be tantamount to alerting the snake. Not only will it not solve the problem, it will also cause a series of chain reactions.

Even though Odin Farm worked more strictly, the police really didn't notice it. He called the police, and the police destroyed Odin Farm, a poppy-growing den, but was that over?

I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs running away. As a person in the antiques industry, I come into contact with all kinds of people, and I can learn many things from these people’s mouths that ordinary people don’t know.

Once upon a time, he accidentally heard someone mention various drugs. The person said that heroin and heroin are the two most common drugs in the world, but these two drugs are very different.

The former is produced through biological refining, while the latter is completely chemical synthesis, which leads to completely different business methods for the two.

The latter may often only require a room and a few people to make it quietly, but the former is very complicated and requires someone to grow poppies. After the poppies mature, there are many procedures to refine and purify them.

This involves dozens or hundreds of people.

The more people you have connections with, the larger the interest groups you represent! (To be continued)
