"Guangming, chop the pieces into larger pieces. It's not satisfying to eat them in such small pieces."
Zhang Chi said something to Lu Guangming who was helping.
"Okay, brother!" Lu Guangming responded with a smile.
Li Qiao was nearby. After hearing Zhang Chi's words, he immediately said to Lu Guangming: "Guangming, don't believe him. What is big and what is small? You can't expect to be half full after eating a bunch of them. Now like this
That’s it”.
The mutton was as big as a mahjong piece. Zhang Chi thought it was small, but Li Qiao thought it was about the same.
Zhang Chi didn't argue with Li Qiao, and turned around to look at his stove. The fire had just started, and it wasn't time to barbecue yet, but several children were now holding a skewer in their hands, roasting a soft meat.
Sugar, I have never eaten this before, but I don’t think it tastes good.
But when a group of children are together, everything they eat is interesting.
There are quite a few children here today, including those from Li Qiao's family, Lu Guangming's family, Miller's family, and Nell's family. In short, there are almost ten children. Although the age difference is quite large, they can still play together.
"Okay, leave the things here to us, and you can rest while you go."
Next to the stove were Nell and Miller, who volunteered to cook today. Zhang Chi had no choice but to give in and idle away.
Walking away from the stove, Zhang Chi brought some drinks for everyone, focusing on taking care of the ladies, and the children second. As for the elders who want to drink, just go and get it yourself. Zhang Chi has no time to serve at the moment.
Zhang Wu has arrived and is now chatting with Jennifer and Duan Shuyi.
Zhang Wu knows how to chat. At this moment, both Jennifer and Duan Shuyi were smiling brightly.
Zhang Chi watched for a while and felt that the scene was too weird. He shook his head and walked into the room.
There was only Melika in the room, and she was currently looking at the accounts brought over by Zhang Wu.
Zhang Chi felt that he could not trust his cousin without looking at it. If that were the case, Zhang Wu would not let him hold a stock in the company at all.
But Melika is a serious person, and Zhang Wu also hopes that everyone can sort things out, so he supports Melika in watching it.
Melika looked at this stuff very carefully, and sometimes she would write it down in notes. If she didn’t understand something, she would ask Zhang Wu to come over and explain it later.
Zhang Chi knows this very well. When he goes out to buy something and put it into his account, he has to make it very clear to his wife, even if it means a penny, he has to explain it carefully.
"Take a break. You've been watching for almost an hour. Do you want to keep your eyes open if you continue to watch like this?"
Zhang Chi said a concerned word to his wife.
After hearing this, Melika smiled, put down the book in her hand, stood up, stretched, and said, "Have you eaten everything?"
"Not yet. The fire has just come up and the roasting hasn't started yet. What do you want to eat? I'll bring it to you later," Zhang Chi said.
Melika replied: "Whatever, you don't need to bring it. I'll just go out to eat later. I've almost read it. Give me another ten minutes to finish it."
"Oh" Zhang Chi replied.
"Brother Xiaowu's company is doing really well. It's better than I thought before. I just don't know if I want to invest. If so, we can try to get more shares," Melika said.
Zhang Chi waved his hands after hearing this: "It's good as it is now. It's not appropriate for us to take too many shares."
Zhang Chi also knew that his cousin's business was doing very well, but he was not happy to invest money in it, and it was not requested by Brother Zhang Wu.
To put it more clearly, that is, this company belongs to my cousin, and I originally lent him a sum of money, but who would have thought that it would end up like this.
My current income is dozens or hundreds of times my investment, and it would be too much to go back to Longwangshu.
Melika looked at Zhang Chi, and after a while she nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Zhang Chi then explained to his daughter-in-law: "We just have to do our own things well now. If we worry about other people's business before our things are done, isn't that putting the end of the world at the expense of others?"
"Okay, I get it" Melika smiled.
Zhang Chi spoke to his wife again, and the two stood in front of the window and looked at the lively group of people on the terrace outside.
Just as she was about to say something, Melika's cell phone rang.
After answering the phone, Zhang Chi heard something soon. His father-in-law called him. The matter must be Lao Liu's ranch, and the matter is gone.
Melika held the phone and talked for about ten minutes. Zhang Chi went out twice to help her heat up some meat skewers. Only when the third person came in did he see Melika put down her phone.
"How's it going?" Zhang Chi asked a little anxiously.
Melika said: "We can take the land, but there are some requirements there, that is, we can take it at market price, but others will take away the cattle, sheep and machinery inside...".
Zhang Chi listened carefully, thinking in his mind while listening.
At the same time, he was also secretly cursing the black-heartedness of these people. Lao Liu’s ranch is not only a ranch, but also has several types of cattle that Lao Niu bought with money. Many of these cattle are rare breeds. If nothing else, let’s talk about the inside.
Longhorn cattle, a male breeder costs more than three million, and it's also a beautiful sight.
Let's put it this way, even if the value of these cattle is half that without the ranch, it is still one-third of the value of the cows with the entire ranch.
In addition to cattle, there are also horses. Lao Liu has almost a dozen purebred horses in the UK, the United States, and Australia, and some of them have very good results, including Zhengda Guangming, which Zhang Chi is familiar with.
These are the living things, and there are also some dead things. These things are more expensive. Agricultural machinery is quite expensive now. A tractor costing millions of dollars is nothing new.
With Lao Liu's style, how could he use second-hand goods? They are all brand new first-hand goods.
The total value of the entire agricultural machinery will definitely not be less than 20 million US dollars.
All of these were taken away, leaving Zhang Chi with only an empty pasture.
Yes, the ranch is valuable, but for Zhang Chi, if the things that he originally had are now gone, he will naturally feel uncomfortable. It would be strange if he didn't curse others in his heart.
After talking to her husband, Melika looked at Zhang Chi and began to comfort him.
"If you think about it, we still got the ranch. Although the price we mentioned was a bit high, we always got what we wanted, like this..."
Zhang Chi smiled at his wife: "I'm not such a senseless person."
any idea?
Zhang Chi had no choice. At this time, Zhang Chi jumped out and said no, you must do something, then you are looking for trouble.
What does he mean to others?
Moreover, Zhang Chi also knew that it was not just people like Nathan who reached out this time, but a group of scattered people. Everyone pretended to be gentlemen with straight faces. Isn't it because of Lao Liu's frivolous wealth?
If you don't benefit from others, you should deal with Lao Liu. Lao Liu has provoked people in China, but it doesn't mean that Americans have any sense of justice. This thing is playing politics in the United States. If you expect to live with a sense of justice, you will die.
Very miserable.
"As long as you figure it out," Melika smiled.
Zhang Chi shrugged his shoulders and said, "If there's anything you can't figure out, I'll explain it to you and we'll take care of it."
"What do you think about the money issue?" Zhang Chi said to his wife.
"We can help with the loan over there. We need to provide up to 15 million US dollars in cash. This cash will not appear in the account..." Melika said.
Okay, another scoop of blood!
It is said that the ranch was bought at a normal price, but it was really a normal price, except that someone took at least 15 million in kickbacks.
Zhang Chi was unhappy, but he didn't have much interest in Zhang Chi.
I paid the money and took the land. What does the remaining money have to do with minions like Zhang Chi? He is just a part-time worker, and people like Nathan are the bosses.
How can any part-time worker share the boss’s money?
Work with peace of mind and ask less about social matters.
"Does the family have enough money?" Zhang Chi asked casually.
Zhang Chi has no specific idea of how much money the family has. Now Melika is managing the money, and Zhang Chi is the one who takes charge of it.
It's no wonder that Zhang Juan was a little worried about this matter in private, fearing that her sister-in-law would one day take the money and run away.
As an older sister, Zhang Juan naturally sides with her younger brother. She also admits that Melika is a nice person, but she is a little worried.
Fortunately, Zhang Juan was also smart, so she just said a few words in private. When Zhang Chi said it was okay, Zhang Juan never mentioned the matter again.
Melika nodded: "No problem. If you nod, I will start processing it."
"Let's do it. If you don't have any objection, I don't have any objection either."
If you think about it on the bright side, you will finally get a big pasture, right?
The couple had just reached an agreement when Zhang Wu opened the door and walked in.
"Have you finished reading? If you have any questions, I'll explain them to you." Zhang Wu came in and said to the couple.
However, he saw the expressions on the couple's faces, so he asked curiously: "What's wrong? Why do you two look so formal and act like a diplomatic meeting? What happened?"
"Lao Liu's land is going to be sold," Zhang Chi said.
There is nothing Zhang Chi can't say to his cousin.
"You guys buy it?"
Seeing Zhang Chi nodded, Zhang Wu said: "Isn't that a good thing? Haven't you always wanted a piece of land to connect your two current pieces of land? Now it is not only connected, but also the area has been expanded several times. Now you are here
He is a well-known figure in the neighborhood."
While Zhang Wu was talking, Melika went upstairs with the accounts to look at the rest of the accounts.
"Yeah, but I'm just a little unhappy."
Zhang Chi smiled and told the whole story to his cousin.
Zhang Wu looked around and smiled at his cousin: "What do you think this is? I'm telling you, you haven't seen a greedy white pig before."
"In short, the world is as dark as crows. If you want to get away with it, you have to darken your heart. Otherwise, you will always have a sense of justice. When will you get rich? When will you be able to live a comfortable life?
Open up a little, that's what society is all about." Zhang Wu reached out and patted his cousin on the shoulder.
