After being comfortable at home for a few days, I took the time to go into the space to take a look at the dozen or so new king snakes I had raised. They gradually grew in size and became more colorful. How about raising animals in the space?
Well, there are more little frogs in the pond, and they are getting bigger. One of them is probably enough for these snake seedlings to have a good meal. Generally speaking, there is no crisis in the space now, and everything is fine.
A few days later, Wang Fan took Ju An to California to meet Wang Fan's father. Wang Fan didn't give any special reminder, and Ju An didn't pay special attention to anything. He was dressed in casual clothes and a short-sleeved T-shirt. For Ju An,
It is said that Wang Fan’s father’s identity is much more important than his current position. Meeting the elders
It was not a matter of doing it with both hands. Ju An prepared two bottles of the first wine produced by the winery as gifts, and had an oak box made for him, plus a yellow silk lining, which looked pretty good.
, Wang Fan also brought two bottles of wine, but they were produced in the second year.
When they arrived at the hotel, Wang Fan took Ju An and walked upstairs. When he was approaching the door, he was stopped by a man in his thirties. He looked at Wang Fan and said, "The leader is meeting some overseas Chinese. Xiaofan will wait a moment."
If you go in again, the leader will have no arrangements for the night."
Wang Fan nodded after hearing this and introduced Ju An: "This is my friend Ju An, and Ju An is my father's secretary Sage."
"Hello Sage." Ju An smiled and extended his hand to the leader's caring person. The two shook hands, and the Sage said humbly: "I don't dare to take it seriously. My name is Savinhe. Just call me.
The name is ready, I heard from the leader that Mr. Ju is a young talent who has made a name for himself on the ranch in the United States."
Hey! Brother, this is also a young talent. After hearing Savinhe’s praise, he quickly said humbly: “I raised a few cows for a small amount of time. It’s not worth mentioning. I just earn some money to support my family.”
That’s all”.
"Sir, you are humble." Savinhe gestured to the two of them: "The leader is still here for a while, let's go! Go to my room and have a chat." After saying that, he led the two of them towards a room. They met several people on the way.
Everyone who looked like an official smiled and greeted Savinhe, and Savinhe also smiled and nodded in response to others. On the way, the officials I met looked at Savinhe leading the way, and from time to time he smiled and followed the two thirty-year-olds behind him.
The people on the left and right were chatting and laughing, and couldn't help but glance at Wang Fan and Ju An.
After entering the room, Savinhe took out two bottles of drinks from the refrigerator and handed them to Ju An and Wang Fan. Ju An took the drinks and looked up. It was a standard room with two beds. You could see everything clearly as soon as you entered the room.
It was so clear that it was not even as good as the hotel room I stayed in. Of course it was much better than the one I lived in before I got the beads. At that time, Ju An lived in a hotel that was converted from a house in the community. Wasn’t the boss at that time just trying to get a bargain and stayed in it?
It's convenient as they all speak Chinese.
The two chairs were occupied by Ju An and Wang Fan. Savinhe had no choice but to sit by the bed and follow the two men talking. At this time, Wang Fan handed the wine box in his hand to Savinhe: "Brother Sa, this is for you.
Yes, wine produced in your own winery, I know you love drinking wine."
Savinhe said with a smile: "You gave me a gift, how can you be polite?" After saying that, he looked at the box: "I know you are pouring your own wine in China, so I also bought a few bottles and tasted them, but later
The taste of the wine was much worse than the second time, and the price of wine with the same taste as the first time had increased by more than ten times.”
"The market economy is not." Wang Fan said with a smile: "Our winery's wine became famous when we produced wine in the second year. Ordinary wine contains very few grapes produced in our own vineyards, and most of them are imported from other countries."
We harvest only 10,000 bottles of wine a year from our vineyards. The current market is only 6 in the United States and 4 in the country. This year, the domestic share may not even be 30%."
Savinhe said with a smile: "The wine is good. I know that the vineyards in California are no worse than those in France, and they are more suitable for Chinese people's tastes. But your prices are really high. My salary is not even enough to buy two bottles."
Top-notch, you can only look at it normally."
Ju An smiled after hearing this. With his dead salary, the secretary really couldn't buy a few bottles of his brother's wine.
Wang Fan clapped his hands after hearing this: "Then I will bring you two boxes when I go back next time."
"That's not necessary, it's too much trouble." Savinhe waved his hand and looked at his watch: "You two chat for now, I'll go out for a while." After that, he stood up.
Ju An and Wang Fan also stood up, watched Savin and leave the room, and then sat on the chairs. Ju An asked Wang Fan: "Is this the legendary number one secret in Jiangnan?"
"Brother, I'm lucky to have met you."
"Don't talk to me about this. I'm lucky enough to see you twisting your head and looking around, shaking your legs from time to time. You must be humming a little tune in your heart. Don't tell me that this is your first time in a hotel like this.
"That's it." Wang Fan glanced at Ju An, took a sip of his drink and said.
Ju An chuckled and said, "Brother, this is the way to be strong without desire, and it comes naturally from the heart without seeking anything. This first secret is really not simple. There are people smiling and saying hello along the way. This is what official literature calls considerate people."
It’s over”.
Wang Fan glanced at Ju An: "Brother Sa has been friends with my family for several lifetimes. His grandfather used to be the leader of my old man's team, and he has always had a good relationship with our family."
Ju An shook his head and said jokingly: "Uncle, this is not good at all. He uses nepotism."
"Go away and drink your drink. You don't know what to say." Wang Fan raised the drink bottle and threatened to hit Ju An.
The two brothers were chatting and making trouble. After about ten minutes, Savinhe returned to the room and said to the two of them: "The overseas Chinese have left, you follow me."
Ju An and Wang Fan followed Savinhe out of the room. When they arrived at Wang Fan's father's room, Ju An was disappointed again. This room was not as good as his own room. It was a suite, but the decoration
They are much worse than where my brothers live. This person who is the first person in Jiangnan is a bit of a failure. You see, the people who live here are not even as good as my brothers.
Savinhe sent the two of them through the door, turned around and went out, closing the door behind him. This was the first time that Ju An met Wang Fan's father, the legendary number one person in Jiangnan, Wang Qi. It seemed that
He looks like he is in his forties, has a Chinese character, black hair, and is neatly combed. He is sitting on a single sofa near the window with a smile on his face. He is looking at himself and puts his hands on the armrests of the sofa.
momentum.
Ju An followed Wang Qi for a second or two with a smile on his face without fear. Wang Fan next to him said: "Dad, this is my friend Ju An."
Wang Qi, the number one person in Jiangnan Province, smiled and pointed to the three-person sofa next to him: "Sit down and talk. There are drinks in the refrigerator. Xiaofan will get them for your friend."
"He has just finished drinking. If he is not thirsty yet, he will take it himself." Wang Fan sat down on the sofa: "Ju An has prepared some gifts for you, two bottles of red wine, produced in the first year of the winery, top-notch wine."
After saying that, Ju An brought the wine and put it on the coffee table.
Wang Qi frowned and said, "I think I heard you say last time that it's the kind of bar that goes to auctions."
"Well, this is the kind of top-notch wine that will never be available again in the future," Wang Fan said with a smile.
Wang Qi shook his head and said: "Then it is even more unacceptable. This is not considered bribery."
Ju An listened to the conversation and said: "I'm not bribing this. This is a gift to my uncle. I don't have anything to take from the house. I even gave away the wine and beef. But it can't be the first time I see my uncle bringing it."
A box of beef, and I only give this kind of wine at home to two kinds of people, one is elders and the other is friends."
After listening to Ju An's words, Wang Qi stared at Ju An's eyes for a second or two. Ju An still looked at the number one person in Jiangnan with a smile. Finally, Wang Qi shook his head and said with a smile: "No wonder you
I can become good friends with Xiaofan. Just looking at their personalities, they are almost neither humble nor arrogant. Most of the time, they are lazy, and sometimes they are a bit too stubborn. Since you, as a junior, gave it to me as an elder, then I will
Received it."
Ju An smiled and said, "That's true. If you weren't Wang Fan's father, I wouldn't have brought you here to see you. You have a lot of people to please, but I'm definitely not among them."
Wang Qi took the wine box and looked at it for a while: "Is this wine a top quality? Xiaofan didn't explain it clearly. Please tell me about it, and I will also broaden my horizons."
Ju An explained roughly what happened. Wang Qi nodded and said, "It's really a shame that people are not as good as God. You can finally have a top-notch wine in your hands."
Wang Fan laughed and said, "Now the wine in our hands is worth the price of the vineyard. It's like we picked up a vineyard in vain."
Wang Qi put down the wine in his hand. As a feudal official, he probably saw millions of dollars of investment in vineyards every day. It was nothing unusual. He asked Ju An: "I heard
Xiaofan said that your ranch is doing very well and you have cultivated two types of cattle. One is now on the market and has similar quality to Wagyu beef, and the other is not on the market and has better meat quality. Is this the case?"
"Yeah!" Ju An nodded and said, "This is about raising cattle. When I first came to the United States, the old cowboy told me that raising cattle means raising grass. Only with good grass can the cattle be good. My ranch
The breed of cattle is one aspect, and the other aspect is that my pasture is very unique, and the most important part of it is the pasture.”
Wang Qi patted the armrest of the sofa: "Raising cattle means raising grass. This sounds simple but it tells the true story of the cattle industry. I must visit your ranch if I have the opportunity."
"Uncle is welcome to visit at any time," Ju An said with a smile.
"Have you ever thought about returning to China to invest in a ranch?" Wang Qi asked Ju An.
Ju An shook his head: "This is really not the case. On the one hand, I can't raise pasture in other pastures. In addition, the pastures purchased are all alfalfa, and the two breeds of cattle are prohibited by the Ministry of Agriculture.
If the Ministry of Agriculture does not liberalize the export of breeds abroad, it will be impossible for me to bring cattle breeds abroad."
"If the U.S. Department of Agriculture is liberalized, if the country wants to introduce it, would you be willing to sell it to domestic cattle breeds? I heard that the white cattle in your pasture will not lose much meat quality if they are carefully cared for. They are very suitable for our rural families.
