Dennis and Orlando quickly reached a consensus. They had been friends for many years and still had a bit of trust. Orlando agreed to become Dennis' deputy and be in charge of the construction of the ranch's horse farm.
They walked back, and Dennis formally introduced Orlando to Sun Dahai. Sun Dahai smiled and shook hands with Orlando, and suggested that he and Carney apply to the ranch to establish a project to participate in professional horse racing competitions in the future.
Sun Dahai's suggestion was as shocking as everyone present. Even Little Carney, who had been talking about horse racing with Sun Dahai just now, was shocked.
You know, Orlando's original rancher, even though he was very supportive of Carney, only allowed him to practice in his free time, and then rented horses to participate in nearby amateur competitions.
But now, according to Sun Dahai's intention, he wants Little Carney to become a professional jockey, form his own team, purchase and train horse racing horses, and later participate in official international horse racing competitions.
Orlando once again confirmed Sun Dahai's meaning with a trembling voice. Little Carney was almost crazy with joy. He hugged Sun Dahai excitedly and kissed him all over the face.
Sun Dahai quickly broke away and stepped aside. He was still thinking about whether there would be a problem with little Carney's sexual orientation, right? If that was the case, it would be better for him to stay away from him in the future.
Dennis naturally knew the dreams of Orlando and Little Carney, and he was happy that his friends could realize their dreams.
However, Sun Dahai did not talk about this project at the afternoon meeting. Dennis waited for a while, and when no one was paying attention, he quietly asked Sun Dahai.
Sun Dahai understood his thoughts and told him clearly: "This is an idea that just came up when I was chatting with Xiao Carney. You don't have to worry, this project is not included in the ranch's plan.
I need you to allocate a suitable piece of land on the ranch to build a living area and professional training ground for racehorses. This project will be independently accounted for, and the ranch must give priority to ensuring the supply of all aspects of this project."
Dennis is indeed a little worried. Everyone knows how much investment will be made in horse racing. He is worried that the US$200 million in development funds guaranteed by Sun Dahai at the afternoon meeting will be invested in horse racing projects. If that happens, the development of the ranch will definitely be greatly affected.
Influence.
Sun Dahai's statement made him completely relieved, but Sun Dahai's generosity also made him speechless. After just a few casual chats with Carney, he can decide on a large project worth hundreds of millions of dollars? What is the mind of a rich man?
Dennis couldn't have guessed it.
Sun Dahai continued to wander in the central square.
He was carrying an empty plate and a glass of juice in his hand. Whenever he passed by a barbecue grill and saw someone else's baked food, he would shyly hold out the plate.
Everyone was very enthusiastic at this time. Not only would the food requested by Sun Dahai not be rejected, but people often introduced food they thought was delicious to Sun Dahai and took the initiative to put it on Sun Dahai's plate.
However, Sun Dahai is really afraid of such enthusiastic people, because his personal tastes are different, and nine times out of ten, Sun Dahai will get food that he doesn't like.
At this time, he would be more embarrassed. He couldn't eat it or throw it away. So Sun Dahai didn't hang around outside for long before he returned to his own people dejectedly.
Eating the steaks grilled by Bater and the chicken legs grilled by Chen Feng, Sun Dahai let out a sigh of relief. The food made by his own people was to his liking.
However, what the hell did Andrew send over? A big ball of something that was said to be black or white. Could it also be food?
What? Roasted hare with mashed potatoes? Chef Sun Dahai was completely defeated.
This dish is just like a standard dark dish, full of weird colors, flavors, and shapes. Anyway, Sun Dahai doesn't have the courage to eat it.
Fang Ying also showed her skills. She had been managing a bamboo weaving factory in Hunan Province in the past few years, where she learned to grill fish. Although the condiments on site were limited, the trout she grilled was still tender and delicious, and was welcomed by everyone.
While everyone was having a good time, the mayor of the town, Kelvinson, came to them with a middle-aged white lady.
After his introduction, it turned out that this lady was Xilina, the owner of Ranch No. 3.
Hey, I just wanted to find you as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that you are even more advanced than me. It seems that you really want to sell the ranch.
Sun Dahai said hello to her, muttering in his heart, but his face remained calm.
Xilina's Ranch No. 3 was an estate left to her and her children by her deceased husband. But now that her children are older and want to develop in Hollywood, she decided to sell the ranch and settle in Los Angeles.
So that's it. After listening to the introduction by Mayor Kebinson, Sun Dahai felt more confident about this ranch.
When he first listened to Joseph's introduction in the afternoon, Sun Dahai was still a little confused. Although agriculture and animal husbandry are currently in a slump, the development of No. 3 Ranch is still quite good.
If you are not in a hurry for money or have other special reasons, selling a ranch that is still making a small profit at this time is actually not worth the gain from an economic point of view.
It is better to hold on for a few years and wait for the U.S. agricultural and animal husbandry industry to pick up and then make a move after the market improves. Then the income will inevitably increase a lot.
Sun Dahai's doubts in the afternoon were now clearly answered by Kebinson's words. Looking at Ms. Xilina's age, it is estimated that her child is now in her 10s and 20s when she is full of fantasy.
As a mother, Xilina was worried about her child working alone, so she planned to sell the ranch and move to Los Angeles to live with her child. This reason was quite good.
Sun Dahai habitually hid behind the scenes. He called Chen Feng and Linkwood who were having a barbecue and asked them to talk to Xilina. He took Andrew and Jessica and continued to eat and drink.
The party ended very late, just in time to help Chen Feng and Fang Ying catch up on their jet lag.
It was already early in the morning when everyone returned to the ranch to rest.
Chen Feng, Linkwood, and Dennis, who joined later, had been discussing the acquisition with Ms. Xilina. They did not join up with everyone until Sun Dahai asked them to go back.
After returning to the ranch, they wanted to report the situation to Sun Dahai, but Sun Dahai drove them back to rest.
During breakfast the next day, Chen Feng reported to Sun Dahai what had happened yesterday. One wanted to buy and the other wanted to sell. The two sides hit it off immediately.
It's just that the ranch transfer transaction involves a lot of animals and crops and requires on-the-spot pricing. Therefore, even if the general direction has been agreed upon, the negotiation of various details will still take another one to two weeks.
Early this morning, Joseph called and said that he had made an appointment with the owner of Ranch No. 4. After a while, Joseph came in person to take them to visit Ranch No. 4 and discuss the transfer of the ranch.
