"How big is your ranch? It looks quite small in the photo." Wang Jingjing asked curiously.
Ju An replied: "More than fifty-five thousand acres."
Li Yuanshan said in surprise, "It's so big, with more than 50,000 acres of land. If it had been before liberation, you would have been a big landowner."
"I know that one acre is equivalent to a little more than six acres in China. If we calculate it in China, it is more than 300,000 acres," Chen Jianguo explained.
Wu Ming's eyes widened immediately: "Hurry up and drag him out and shoot him. There are more than 300,000 acres of fertile land, but we are still allowed to take care of our own air tickets. Where is the law of God? Where is this old man?"
Ju An gave Chen Jianguo a strange look. He even knew the conversion between acres and domestic acres.
Chen Jianguo smiled and explained: "Our family also bought a small manor in Australia, just for vacation, so I know."
Ju An also smiled, and his impression of Chen Jianguo improved a lot. Not only did he look handsome, but he was also a little elegant. He was not as arrogant as some of the nouveau riche. He was a very restrained person, which gave Ju An a good impression. If
If it wasn't Qi Yan, maybe we could become good friends.
"By the way, if you hire someone to take care of the pasture, the salary will be high. If it is high, I will help you take care of the pasture." Li Yuanshan said with a smile.
Ju An replied: "I get up at 5:30 every day and rest at 7:00 in the evening. It costs about a thousand dollars a month. If you want to come, I will welcome you."
"Damn it, it's only 7,000 yuan. Isn't it said that wages in the United States are high? It's not that high, right?" Li Yuanshan muttered.
Ju An explained: "New York, San Francisco, etc. are of course high. Just like in China, you can buy a pound of shrimps for 18 yuan in Jiangnan City. In the countryside, you can buy them for 4 or 5 yuan. It is the same in the United States. The cost of living in the countryside is low.
”.
"Now I'm balanced. It turns out that you live in the countryside in the United States. Your class is similar to mine. I live in a big city in China and am considered a city dweller, but you are still a country boy." Li Yuanshan nodded with satisfaction.
Wang Fan said: "Well, now the distant mountains are enough."
Everyone laughed.
At this time, Ju An got up, said sorry, and went to the bathroom. Chen Jianguo also got up and asked to go with him.
After Ju An and Chen Jianguo entered the bathroom together, Chen Jianguo said to Ju An: "Qi Yan, tell me that she had a love affair in college."
"Oh!" Ju An was hesitant.
"Actually, when I came here, I was thinking that you should be tall and thick. You'd better be perfect if you have a face full of flesh." Chen Jianguo said with a smile.
Ju An replied: "Actually, at first I thought you were a pretty girl with oily hair and pink face. It would be better if you were a little girly."
"Haha" Chen Jianguo laughed.
"It's all in the past, so there's no need to mention it," Ju An said.
Chen Jianguo said: "Really, nice to meet you" and extended his hand.
Ju An looked at the extended hand and said, "Are you sure I have the hand to shake your hand now?"
"Sorry, sorry" Chen Jianguo smiled awkwardly: "I think Wang Fan is not very friendly to me because of Qi Yan's relationship."
Ju An replied: "Basically, he is not very friendly to anyone, except for a few classmates, so you don't have to take it seriously."
"I understand that the third generation of red people are always a little arrogant. From now on, Qi Yan and I will be mainly responsible for the business in Jiangnan. In fact, we don't want to make it so rigid," Chen Jianguo explained.
"Just let Qi Yan talk more." Ju An didn't want to get involved in this matter.
Chen Jianguo said: "Actually, my father admires Qi Yan very much. She is indeed very capable. She became a branch manager in two and a half years."
Ju An said with a smile: "I knew it in college. She has a strong personality and will do her best in everything she does."
When the two people returned to their seats with a smile, Ju An noticed that everyone's gaze suddenly stopped, and then immediately returned to normal, and they continued to chat lively about embarrassing things in college.
We ate until about nine o'clock before everyone went home.
Wang Fan drove Ju An and Wu Ming back to the hotel room. He brought a bunch of Jiangnan beer, bought some duck necks, braised beef, etc., and prepared to have a chat in the hotel.
Wang Fan opened three bottles of beer, and then handed one to Ju An and Wu Ming: "I think you had a good chat with that Chen Jianguo. This is all based on experience. I think you can go up to him and kick him in school."
Looking at Wang Fan who took a sip of beer, Ju An said: "Just treat him as a normal friend and deal with it. There is such a deep hatred there."
Wang Fan said: "I still look down on Qi Yan. If she wanted to break up, I would have no problem breaking up with her directly. It took more than half a year to break up, and she married the boy within three months of the breakup."
Wu Ming said: "Third brother, it's ridiculous to mention these things. If you don't want to be treated, just stay away from them and save face."
Wang Fan said: "Damn, he is a small businessman from the south. Is he worthy of my respect?"
"Okay, let's not mention this. You all can go to Wei Dong's wedding in October." Ju An changed the subject.
Wu Ming said: "Of course I want to go. The fifth child is getting married, the eldest brother Ji Qing, and the second child Su Mingrong are all going. How can we not go when we are so close?"
Ju An said: "In addition, I heard that this bitch Wang Jianming is going to Canada at the end of the year."
Wu Ming said: "Well, he is going to quit his job at the research institute in a while. I heard that the house is also going to be sold. Look at our classmates, there are only two abroad now. There is a serious brain drain."
Wang Fan said: "When Jian Ming goes out, I admit that it is a brain drain. I fully support this guy Lao Liu going out. Long live every subject at 60%. If he goes out to harm the American emperor, there are already more women than men in the country. He
It can be regarded as a contribution to the nation. It is not difficult to defeat the United States by directly airdropping 30,000 Lao Liu. Within ten years, the United States will definitely become a developing country and will definitely increase the Chinese population by at least ten percentage points."
Ju An replied dissatisfiedly: "Do you think it's easy for me to be over sixty?"
"By the way, are you going back to your hometown tomorrow?" Wang Fan then asked.
Ju An thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'm planning to go back to my hometown tomorrow afternoon. This time I'm here to pick up my family and stay there. It just so happens that it's summer vacation. I'll take them there to be lively and lively. It's relatively deserted for me to be there alone.
”.
Wu Ming sighed and said: "Lao Liu is now able to fulfill his filial piety. I haven't paid the down payment for this house yet."
Ju An thought for a while: "Fourth brother, how about I help you with the down payment? I'll keep my money there anyway, what do you think?".
"Forget it, I have my own plans. If you can mention these, it will not be a waste to our brothers." Wu Ming thought for a while and shook his head.
"Two months ago, I asked him to help me take care of my business but he was not willing. How could he accept your money?" Wang Fan looked at Ju An and said.
"I don't understand your business at all. I just go there to earn a living. I know I have a lot of leisure time at work, but if I get paid for nothing all day long, I despise myself." Wu Ming took a sip of beer.
Ju An thought of a way: "Nowadays, many people in China travel to the United States. California is doing very well in this area. There are eight-day ranch tours, horseback riding, etc. How about you recruit customers here and I'll contact you over there.
How many farms and pastures are there? Have a look? There are far fewer people in Montana than in California, and the natural environment is also poor.
It’s even better, especially in Lewistown where I’m staying now. It has everything in the snowy mountain pasture. You can also go hunting. You need a license to hunt, which you can apply for on site. You can also go to the shooting range. Everything is just a gimmick.
, and Yellowstone Forest Park and Glacier Park are both tourist attractions, so there should be a lot of people who want to go.”
When Wang Fan heard this, he thought this was a good idea: "I think this can be done. Now that I'm traveling abroad, how about you, Fourth, do this? Brother, I'll pay for the license, and you'll be responsible for taking care of it.
Anyway, Anzi Ranch is so big, so send more people there."
Upon hearing this, Ju An quickly waved his hand: "Second Brother, you know I don't like to make too much noise. If the brothers go there, I have nothing to say. I'm really not interested in a bunch of people I don't know. You and Fourth Brother, I'll contact you.
Even if the fourth child borrows the funds from me, I can just pay them back after making money, and my ranch will not entertain tourists."
"I can still get enough money to set up a travel company. Then you go back and inquire about it, and come up with a price. If you find it suitable, we can start it." Wang Fan patted Ju An's knee and said.
Ju An nodded: "Okay, then I will take care of this matter when I get back."
Wu Ming saw that the two people sincerely wanted to help, so he had no choice but to nod and agree.
Next, Ju An watched Wang Fan and Wu Ming discuss it again, and then they made a general decision. Then everyone talked about things in the university, such as the women from the computer department who were taking foreign language classes together, which one
It was pretty passable, which department has the ugliest female voice, and a series of other topics about boys. Before they knew it, the three of them had finished drinking a bottle of beer, cleared away the snacks, and fell asleep with a little bit of drunkenness.
The next day, Ju An didn't wake up until about three o'clock in the morning. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Wang Fancheng took up most of the bed. Wu Ming had been pushed to the ground and huddled in a corner.
Rubbing his eyes, he got up and went to freshen up. Then he came over and kicked each other twice: "Get up, get up." The two guys rubbed their eyes and swayed up.
Wu Ming actually lifted up his clothes in disgust and grabbed two handfuls on his belly.
While they were washing up, Ju An hung up the phone to Brother Li and told them that he was back. When he answered the phone, he heard the sound of horses neighing and guessed that they were playing at the racecourse.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, he declined their request for a treat in the evening, and by the way, he allowed them to have time to visit his ranch when they went to the United States in the future.
We had lunch with Wang Fan and the others. Wang Fan originally suggested that Ju An rent a car, but considering the trouble of returning the car, and now that Ju An didn't have a driver's license, he planned to take a bus back. Wang Fan sent Ju An to the station.
Then he followed the big guest on the journey back to his hometown.
