Lao Xu was just joking about Zhang Chi. How could he not know what Melika did before? A young lady like her would be lucky if she didn't cause trouble for others. Why would someone want to trouble her?
In Lao Xu's understanding, this and that in the United States are, to put it bluntly, the family politics of the Wei and Jin Dynasties in our country, except that Wang, Lu, Cui, and Xie were replaced by large and small consortiums.
Although Melika's family may not be that big, it is not something that ordinary people can afford to offend.
Just as he was talking about Melika, Zhang Chi's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was his wife. Melika just said one sentence on the phone, asking Zhang Chi to pick her up at the airport.
Zhang Chi felt a little strange, but after hanging up the phone, he still said to Lao Xu: "My wife is back, I will pick her up at the airport."
When Lao Xu heard this, he smiled and said: "Go quickly, go Nian, don't keep the leader waiting too long."
Zhang Chi laughed twice and got into the car with the crossbow given by Lao Xu.
After the car left the ranch, Zhang Chi threw the crossbow into the gourd and drove all the way to the airport.
When they arrived at the airport, Melika had already landed and was standing at the exit, next to her suitcase.
Zhang Chi pulled the car next to his wife, got out of the car with a smile and took the suitcase to the back of the car.
After getting in the car to go home, Zhang Chi found that Melika seemed a little unhappy.
So when the car left the airport parking lot, Zhang Chi asked: "What's wrong?"
After a while, Melika opened her mouth and said, "It can't be done."
"Oh" Zhang Chi didn't have much reaction.
After all, Melika couldn't bear it any longer, and soon she started talking to Zhang Chi.
Melika wants help from her family, mortgages on all the ranches, etc. She needs support from her family.
This would be very convenient for the bank. She didn't have time to delay this matter. The speed of the bank's payment was closely related to the acquisition. In fact, she didn't need to take out so much money at once. She only needed the bank to prove that she had the strength.
Already.
The bank she was counting on was also the bank her family had been working with, and her family also had shares in the bank. When she started planning, Melika thought this was normal and would not be a problem at all.
But she had overestimated her family's pursuit of interests. She had set her sights on that pasture, and others had also set their sights on that pasture. Although they were not members of her family, they now had more say than Melika.
.
Apparently, Melika was abandoned by her family in this competition for the ranch.
Zhang Chi laughed after hearing this and said: "What am I talking about? If you can't harvest it, you won't be able to harvest it. To be honest, I don't want that pasture yet."
How can Zhang Chi persuade his daughter-in-law? He is the only one left to belittle the pasture.
Melika was so smart, so she didn't know what her husband was thinking. She just felt confident and ran back to get help from her family, but her family ruthlessly rejected her.
"We Chinese have an old saying that we have to lean against the wall and live on the house. We can't blame others for this. When we really have money in our own hands, it won't be too late to buy pasture. This is not the only pasture for sale.
" Zhang Chi continued to persuade.
Melika has no choice now. A clever woman cannot make a living without rice. She has assets in hand, but it is not easy to lend money, and the loans are not small amounts, but tens of millions of dollars.
This trip is over, and the ranch over there has been sold.
"That's all."
Melika was in a bad mood. She felt resentful and resentful that her family could not help her.
For a while, she couldn't turn around, but when she calmed down, she would definitely understand that this was the basis for her family's survival, that is, only interests, not feelings.
Thinking about it this way, you can understand why Melika does not get the support of her family, or why Melika cannot provide benefits beyond others.
Zhang Chi didn't want to understand the nonsense between these big families. When he heard what Melika said, he suddenly remembered that he had been throwing out herds of cattle for some time, so why didn't this group of people do it?
People discovered it.
It's impossible to tell anyone who found out. As far as the media here are concerned, if you have hundreds of extra cows at home, you definitely can't hide it from them. Even if you can hide it from the media, you can't hide it from the IRS.
Help the dog.
Americans think differently from Chinese people, and they cannot hide things like this, because the sooner everyone knows, the sooner these things legally belong to them.
Why can't anyone find a herd of cattle nearby?
Zhang Chi spent most of the trip thinking about this matter, and Melika was naturally sulky. The couple talked very little along the way.
It wasn't until she returned to the ranch that Melika's mood improved.
The ranch was now so busy that she seemed to see a beautiful money scene in the ranch.
After getting out of the car, Melika did not rest. Instead, accompanied by Lao Xu, she looked at all the construction sites.
There are more workers on the construction site today. There are now nearly seventy workers working on the construction site. This amount is definitely a big project locally.
The daily feeding, drinking and urination of these workers is not a small problem.
Melika looked around and was very satisfied with the progress of the construction. She was very aware of the efficiency of the Chinese. It had only been a few days and the necessary structures were already almost in place. She had always been very demanding when it came to this level of work.
She couldn't find anything wrong with her.
After looking around, Melika returned to the room and saw Zhang Chi sitting on the porch in a daze. She sat next to Zhang Chi, looked at the busy workers not far away, and opened her mouth and said to Zhang Chi: "They
Too diligent."
Zhang Chi came back to his senses and said with a smile: "They are making money, while other construction teams are doing work. The two starting points are different."
Many people in the white construction team just work step by step. When the working hours guaranteed by the labor law are over, they throw up their hands and go off to do whatever they have to do.
If you expect them to work overtime for you outside of working hours, don’t even think about it. Even if you ask workers to work overtime and threaten you to do whatever you want if you don’t work overtime.
Even if the workers don't sue you, the union will punish you to death, so bosses here generally don't dare to let workers work overtime.
Of course, there are differences in the industry. For example, in ranch work, it is impossible for cowboys not to work overtime. Eight hours a day. Now three cowboys have to do the work of one cowboy. The ranchers can tear up the union.
There are people doing all kinds of businesses in this world, but no one is doing businesses that are not profitable.
Melika continued to lament: "Americans used to be very diligent, but now... ugh".
Zhang Chi knows this well. The attitudes towards work between Americans in the past and Americans today are completely different. Americans before World War II worked overtime and so on, and were no worse than domestic companies today. But people are just like this.
We have lived so many good times, and it is no longer possible to go back to the way we were before.
Not to mention the United States in the past, the British also tried their luck during the Industrial Revolution. Almost all the old industrial countries have gone through this road, except for trading countries like the Netherlands and Spain, and industrial countries like the United Kingdom, Germany, and France.
When it rises, the price is the blood and sweat of workers.
During the British Industrial Revolution, the cheapest way for many workers to sleep was a rope bed, which was just a rope. People would lie down on this rope to sleep. It was not just one rope for each person, but several people lying on one rope.
Sleeping on the rope, when the time comes in the morning, the shop owner cuts the rope, and everyone lying on the rope can't even think about getting up.
As the old saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Now if you ask American workers to return to their previous working conditions, it will be impossible. Anyone who wants them to go back will be torn into pieces.
Therefore, Zhang Chi and his wife could only chat, which had no practical significance at all.
The decoupling between China and the United States is really a joke. For Americans to produce a roll of toilet paper, the cost is ten times that of what is currently on the market. How is this possible?
As for countries in Southeast Asia and India, people are inherently lazy, and local governments go on strike at every turn. If you think they can replace China, that is what you are saying.
When it comes to being diligent, honest and good at management, the Chinese are really the first to do so. When it comes to this matter - ugh.
The couple's current attitude makes them look like two wealthy landowners, watching others work and gossiping around them. They really look a bit reactionary.
Feelings are feelings, but it doesn't stop the two of them from living a small life. When it's time to eat, they still have to cook and eat what they should eat.
The acquisition of the ranch failed, and the lives of the two of them became increasingly dull. If they had not visited the construction site every day and rode horses side by side to enjoy the scenery of the ranch, their lives would not have been as carefree as they were.
Three or four days later, the pipes in the cowboy dormitory were connected, and all the facilities in the old house of Zhang Chi and his wife could be used, and their lives returned to their original convenience.
On this day, the couple was riding their own horses, wandering around the pasture, and taking a tour.
The two people were so relaxed that they had little time to think about where they were going.
Unknowingly, the two of them came to the pond, letting the two horses eat grass on the edge of the pond, while the couple sat firmly on the back of the horse and looked at the water in the pond.
"There's a big fish!"
Melika was surprised to find a big fish lying on the bottom of the pond.
"where?"
When Zhang Chi heard that there was a big fish, he immediately became energetic. He felt that he had not eaten fish for a long time. He immediately stretched out his head and searched around the pond.
"there!"
Melica held out her saddle a little.
Zhang Chi saw it. It was indeed a big fish, probably weighing at least four or five kilograms. It looked like a herring.
Seeing herring, Zhang Chi instantly thought of pickled fish, and his mouth suddenly became salivating.
At this moment, Cannon galloped over on horseback.
"BOSS, caught!"
Cannon shouted excitedly.
Zhang Chi was surprised when he heard this and thought: What did you catch?
Someone found the cow bait that was thrown out by me? Impossible! It couldn't be Cannon who found it, how could he find it after he stayed in the pasture all day?
