When he woke up in the morning, Ju An lifted the blanket covering his stomach, stretched out, and saw Wang Fan on the other bed, wrapped in a blanket and rolled up into a ball, still sleeping soundly, walking on the other side of the bed.
Wang Fan kicked the bedside: "Get up quickly, we will go back in the morning." w.9 Read
"Well!" Wang Fan stretched his head out of the blanket, then hummed to Ju An, and then retracted his head into the blanket: "Let me sleep for a while, I changed the bed and I had some insomnia last night."
Ju An shook his head, brushed his teeth and wiped his face by the sink in the room, walked to the door and opened the door. It was still a bit cold here in the morning, but the workers had already begun to work on digging the ground.
Digging the ground, several excavators are also working
Working rumblingly, the two cowboys have arrived at the edge of the sheep, riding four-wheel drive motorcycles to drive the sheep out. The roar of the machines in front of them is mixed with the bleating of the sheep and the barking of the shepherd dogs.
, a busy and lively scene.
After walking outside and stretching, he said hello to the people he met. Ju An walked towards the pond where he put water and looked at the nearby plants. The plants that had not been nibbled had not changed much.
After gnawing, the main root and lateral roots of the plant have begun to close. The gnawed piece has slowly shrunk and turned a light green color. It seems that it will not take long to grow stems and leaves.
Ju An was squatting on the ground looking at the plants. Leonard came over and squatted down next to Ju An: "When this piece turns green, it will be time to grow stems." The old man fiddled with the plants that were being gnawed by the sheep.
He dropped the soil next to the plant and explained to Ju An. After that, he asked: "Are you ready to leave today?".
Nodding, Ju An looked up and looked around: "Well, I've finished reading here. I'm going back to California in the morning. I'll probably fly back to Montana tomorrow morning. Do you have any other requests?"
.
The old man waved his hand and said to Ju An: "I don't have any more requests. If I have a request, it won't be done all at once. I'll just wait until the ranch house is built, and then I'll move the laboratory stuff over."
"Are you planning to live here permanently? Then you won't study the pastures in Montana?" Ju An looked at the old man and said strangely.
Leonard waved his hand: "I don't live here permanently. I can just wait until the ferns here are almost grown before moving the laboratory back. To be honest, there is really no clue about the research on forage." The old man finished speaking and sighed.
Ju An smiled and said, "I'm not tired of moving things back and forth. I might as well buy a truck with a large trailer. It can drag test equipment everywhere. It's also convenient to carry."
It's the kind of thing that's like a big truck towing something like a container. It can be transformed into a laboratory, which makes it easier for the old man to run back and forth.
After thinking about it, he said to Leonard: "Next year, no! Or later this year, you and Lyman will quickly set up the plant and animal research company. Now I don't have much investment in a year.
Ten million dollars a year can still be guaranteed. Lyman will be responsible for new livestock breeds and you will be responsible for grazing.
For the cultivation of grass and other plants, let’s take a small step first and invest more in the future when we have more money.” Ju An had this idea in his mind before and was planning to develop some new breeds. For cattle breeds, we should look at gray cattle.
Whether it will perform better when bred with other cattle breeds, as for pasture, that is incidental.
Old man Leonard nodded happily after hearing this: "Ten million per year was already a lot in the past few years. This way, we can invite more animal husbandry experts to come and make it easier for everyone to study."
Ju An smiled and joked: "The budget of 10 million is not a salary. It is a budget of everyone's salary plus research funds for a year. If it is not enough, I will not allocate more funds. And this company, you can't expect to go public."
Money is not within the scope of Ju'an's consideration. If it is listed, many hands will be stretched out, which will be too much for him. Ju'an is really not interested.
Leonard shook his head and said with a smile: "Ten million U.S. dollars per year is enough for cattle plant research. This research is not just about investment, but also perseverance. A new species requires less.
For more than ten years of cultivation, the investment package for the first year does not include construction investment."
After hearing this, Ju An thought for a moment and laughed and joked: "How much money can be spent on a building? Don't think about high-rise buildings. A dozen or so bungalows will be enough."
"That's enough, that's enough. Then I need to discuss with Lyman where to locate the research institute and how to divide the funds," Leonard said to Ju An.
Ju An thought for a moment: "I suggest setting it up in Lewistown. After all, it is close to Xishuihe Ranch. The land in the town is cheaper and the cattle pasture is relatively close. It would be too inconvenient to locate it elsewhere. If it is located in
Lewistown was converted into a two-story concrete building."
Leonard smiled and said: "Of course it is in Lewistown, but I am considering whether to build the research institute in the town or buy a piece of land close to the ranch. After all, ten million dollars is enough to buy a few dozen acres of wasteland.
”.
"You think about this for yourselves, and then discuss it with the accountant." Ju An patted his thigh and stood up, letting out a sigh of relief. As long as the accountant looks at it and decides on the company's articles of association, then there is nothing to worry about.
If you don't have a charter and you're scratching your head and thinking about it, that ten million will be troublesome.
Seeing Ju An standing up, old man Leonard also stood up: "Of course, a newly established company must also have company rules and regulations. Then next year will be much busier, and I will have more funds.
Invite two biologists over”.
"Ten million!" Ju An raised a finger and waved it in front of the old man and reminded with a smile: "This is the only number. Is it more? But the research funds given to you and Lyman by the mu are included.
”.
Leonard pressed Ju An's finger down: "I see, is it more than ten million? Your ten million is more than I invested in the entire animal husbandry in college. Don't worry, remember what you said."
Ten million a year.”
Ju An nodded: "Keep your word." Ten million a year not only allows you to research new breeds of livestock, but also gives you a shiny shield. If you have more professors, you will also get more shields, right? It's not a waste of money.
While the two were talking, the assistant hired by old Leonard Leonard came over. Ju An listened to Wang Fan's talk yesterday and paid a little attention at this time. The girl with the butt facing Ju An was really good-looking.
With a pink face and big eyes, he said hello to several assistants, and the old man led a few people and pounced on the plants again.
When Ju An returned to the room, Wang Fan had already sat on the edge of the bed. Seeing Wang Fan in a daze, he asked, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and brush your teeth and finish breakfast and we will go back."
Wang Fan twisted his shoulders: "Let me wake up. I'm urging you as soon as I get up. It's like a ghost urging you to rush. Why are you rushing? It's a five-hour journey and it takes a day to climb." After saying that, he stood up.
He got up and walked towards the pool.
Seeing Wang Fan lazily wandering towards the edge of the pool as if he had no bones, Ju An shook his head and simply opened the door and filled in the five internal organs temple first.
After breakfast at the simple canteen, I ate something a little. Breakfast was really not to Ju An's taste. After eating a little, I went out. As soon as I walked out of the canteen, I saw several pickup trucks lined up towards the simple room.
Vehicles were driving over here, some were dragging ladders behind them, and some had a few people sitting in the truck compartments. They were probably workers coming to build houses.
Ju An raised his legs and walked over. At this time, Rand also walked out of the house and walked next to Ju An and said to Ju An: "This is the first batch of workers who came to build the dormitories of the ranch." As soon as he finished speaking,
The car stopped a few meters away.
As soon as the car stopped, an old man wearing a yellow safety helmet jumped out of the car, and then called to the people in the car: "Everyone, come down, let's start work."
After speaking, he walked to Rand's side and stretched out his hand: "Rand, my people are here, let's start work today."
Rand shook hands with the old Mo, then extended his hand and introduced: "Ben! Our boss, An".
Lao Mo stretched out his hand to Ju An: "Thank you, sir, for choosing my company. Don't worry, our work will be absolutely good. If you need anything in the future, you can contact me directly. You will know the quality this time."
"After speaking, he handed Ju An a business card.
Ju An shook hands, then took the business card, glanced at it and put it in his pocket: "Okay." Many people of Mexican descent here work in construction, and the price is about 10% lower than that of white companies.
The work was done well. Of course, all the buildings in the Ju'an ranch are equivalent to the amount of work done by this old Mo in a year, and the current economic situation is not easy to accept the work.
After Ju An said a few words, Ben led the workers to the location of the dormitory, spread out the drawings on a pile of wood, and followed a few workers to say something.
Rand looked at Ju An looking at these old Mo's and said with a smile: "Their work is very good. Many houses in Kingman were built by them. Did they go back this morning?".
Ju An nodded: "I understand everything I need to know. You can take care of the rest." Seeing Leonard wandering around the grass all day long, he didn't have the energy to care about other things. Things of this quality are still
Look at Rand, the ranch manager.
Rand nodded and said to Ju An: "Don't worry, I will watch it every day."
"Then you go about your business. We will set off when my friend is ready later," Ju An said to Rand. Ju An felt relieved to leave these matters to Rand. The construction team was bound by the contract.
Nor would Rand give money to mess with the quality. Nor would Rand pay the construction team to do a shoddy project. If you manage such a ranch, you can work until it can no longer be done. Compared with this position, the construction team is nothing.
You can't give much money, and you still risk going to jail. The cost is too high.
It's not like in Ju'an Middle School, where the construction team gave the principal some money, and the teaching building was fooled by you. After only three years of use, a big crack appeared, and in the end it was fine even after two attempts.
At this time, Wang Fan came over and said to Ju An: "Let's go and have breakfast when we get to Jinman. There is nothing to eat except eggs this morning." Like Ju An, Wang Fan is also a man who indulges in all kinds of pleasures.
.
After listening to Wang Fan's words, Ju An nodded. The two of them tidied up a little, got into the Mercedes-Benz, and drove towards Jinman...
