Early this morning, Zhao Yi felt his waist was sore when he got up from bed. He turned to look at his wife who was still sleeping soundly, and reminisced about the madness last night. First, he went to solve the physical problem, and then took the newspaper from the little cat¡¯s mouth that he had just picked up from outside the door. Don't get me wrong, the noble cat will not serve you in vain. The price Zhao Yi paid was two fresh crucian carp. After opening the newspaper, Mia walked downstairs wrapped in a nightgown. While combing her hair, she asked, "Yi, when will we set off." Zhao Yi kissed his wife softly and looked at his watch: "It's half past seven now. It will be about half past eight when we have breakfast, maybe 9 o'clock. It's estimated that we will have to drive for almost an hour on the road." Mia nodded after hearing this: "I'll make breakfast, and Guo Guo will be left to you. Come on, wake her up as soon as possible. This child is very good at staying in bed. " "Don't worry, leave it to me." It's easiest to deal with her daughter. Zhao Yi put down the newspaper and walked upstairs. Their family now lives on the second floor. Among them, Guoguo lives in the first room on the left on the second floor, while Mia and Zhao Yi live next door. Pushing the door open and walking in, the big pink bed in Guoguo's room was neatly empty. This child was sleeping on the floor again. I don¡¯t know since when, Guoguo would sleep on the floor in the room every night. This problem remains an unsolved mystery until now. Going around to the other end of the bed, he saw his daughter curled up in Xiaobai's arms, sleeping soundly. Xiaobai saw his master enter the room, narrowed his eyes and looked down at the little master, then raised his head and stuck out his big tongue resentfully. It must be thinking in its heart, why do the master and the little master like to torture me? Dogs also need to sleep at night. If the sleep problem is not solved, it will be very harmful to the body. Phew! At this time, Guoguo spread out from Xiaobai's arms, and saw a small orange ball sitting quietly on her round belly. It¡¯s Da Fei! This guy is really awesome now. He usually squats on Guoguo's shoulders, follows her to kindergarten during the day, and enjoys an endless supply of fruit at night. Teachers and children in the kindergarten all know that Guoguo has a very smart squirrel. Dafei is even more famous in the kindergarten than a teacher. Many young ladies and little lolita have begged Guoguo to touch one. Da Fei, but my little baby doesn¡¯t care about that. Except for Naier, no other children in the kindergarten have met Da Fei. ?? Stretched out his hand and pulled Da Fei away. Zhao Yi didn't like this guy very much. It was almost the same as a beggar who came to the door to get food and refused to leave. Da Fei was sleeping soundly. Leng Buding's body was empty and he fell to the stall with a thud. After he woke up, he twisted his little head and looked around. When he saw Zhao Yi suddenly woke up. Climbing directly up his clothes to his shoulders, he kept shouting close to his ear. Zhao Yi ignored the squeaking sound in his ears, picked up Guoguo and walked out the door. Little Guoguo felt his body shaking, rubbed his eyes, and his little face wrinkled up unhappily: "Dad! Today is Saturday, Mia¡¯s mother said you can sleep in! Guoguo wants to sleep!¡± Zhao Yi slapped his daughter on the butt: "Why are you sleeping in? Today we are going to the ranch to see Grandpa Leo! Don't Guoguo want to go and play with Grandpa Leo? Then Dad will put you back in the house now. Go." "Well! No, no! Guoguo wants to go to the ranch, and Guoguo wants to go swimming!" The little guy kept squirming in Zhao Yi's arms. "Okay, okay, if you want to go, give dad a quiet moment." Looking down at his daughter, who instantly felt at ease, Zhao Yi nodded her forehead: "You, you said you wanted to see Grandpa Leo, I think you just want to go swimming and play in the water. !" Guoguo suppressed her blushing face and refused to speak. Zhao Yi took Guoguo to wash up and then pushed her to Mia. I helped Xiaobai and Xiaomei prepare breakfast. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? "I can't forget you!" He casually threw it to Da Fei who climbed onto the stove and waited for him at some point. This guy was always acting rogue anytime and anywhere. After dinner, Zhao Yi went to pick up Tommy. He had agreed to take him to the ranch to work first, so he happened to be taken there this week. Tommy was very well prepared, including a change of clothes and daily necessities. He actually wanted to bring a few beddings, but Zhao Yi said they were all there, so he didn't bring them. Zhao Yi¡¯s family took Tommy and drove towards the ranch. Along the way, the latter kept asking what he needed to do to get to the ranch. It seemed that he took this job very seriously. "Of course someone will teach you when you get there. Don't worry, buddy, just learn slowly if you don't know how. It's okay." Along the way, Zhao Yi didn't listen to this advice to Tommy, and unknowingly saw the sign above the ranch gate. Signage - [Welcome to Black and White Ranch], this sign was made by Aiko, and it seems that the craftsmanship is quite good now. Since Leo had been notified before, when he arrived at the ranchAt that time, he was smoking leisurely at the gate. After several people met, Zhao Yi introduced Tommy to Leo, and then Mia took Guoguo to the villa to change clothes. Before Zhao Yilin moved out, he left a bedroom as a room where he would live here in the future, so it was not occupied by Leo and others. Getting on the motorcycle, Zhao Yi and Leo chatted while waiting for Mia. "Old Leo, I want to open a slaughterhouse. As you know, I didn't have enough funds before, but now I have enough funds." After hearing this, Leo was surprised and said: "Yi, a fully equipped slaughterhouse may require a lot of funds. , although I don¡¯t know the approximate figure, but it is roughly estimated to be around 10 to 20 million. Where will you get so much money? Our ranch will not be able to make so much money for a while. " Listen quietly. Tommy remained normal on the surface, but was secretly surprised in his heart. Opening a slaughterhouse? This must require a lot of money. It seems that my future boss is really quite capable. At this time, Zhao Yi smiled and said: "Did you know that Xiaolizi went to participate in the Breeders' Cup a few days ago?" Leo nodded: "I know, and didn't he win the championship? You called me that day and told me "Haha, actually I forgot to tell you that in addition to Xiao Lizi winning the championship, I also won a lot of money." Zhao Yi saw Mia and her daughter walking out of the villa wearing cool swimsuits. He went first. Close the ranch gate, wait for his wife and daughter to get in the car, and then start the motorcycle. "Come here, little guy, come to Grandpa Leo." Old Leo opened his arms to Guoguo, and the little girl suddenly got into the arms of the old black man, giggling from time to time. Zhao Yi looked happy. This child really liked Leo. From the time he first came to the ranch, he found that Guoguo liked staying with Leo. Maybe the latter is good at coaxing children. Leo teased Guoguo for a while, then looked up at Zhao Yi who was driving: "Yi, where did we talk just now?" Zhao Yi drove the motorcycle to avoid a high raised grass field and said: "Let Mia Let me tell you, my dear, tell Leo about my horse betting that day." Seeing her husband's excited look, Mia became furious. She glared at him fiercely and turned to Leo with a helpless expression: "Old Leo, you may find it unbelievable when I tell you that Xiao Lizi went to bet on horse racing on the day of the competition. Do you know how much he bet? " "1W?" Leo asked. Mia shook her head. "5W?" Leo asked again, but Mia still shook her head. Finally, Leo thought about it. He opened his mouth and said: "Is it 10W?" This time Mia nodded helplessly: "It's very close." Upon hearing this, Leo also criticized Zhao Yi: "Yi, it's best not to bet on horses too much. Even if you have confidence in Xiaolizi, you can't do this. What if it loses? Is the hard-earned money just thrown away? " "Actually, you misunderstood" Zhao Yi laughed and turned. He turned his head to look at Mia. Mia shook her head and said, "Old Leo, I just said it was close. In fact, the number 10 After a few seconds, his face was startled: "80W?" Mia nodded: "Yes, it is 80W." After hearing this, Leo was shocked and said: "Yi, you are crazy! Use 80W to bet on horse racing? What if you lose? What should I do? " He knows that Zhao Yi is not rich in funds, so 80W should be almost all of his working capital, right? What is this doing? There is no need to fight like this. Although the result is wonderful now, it is not a wise thing to gamble like this anyway. Next, Leo and Mia began to take turns criticizing Zhao Yi, and he also knew that they were worried about him. So I just admitted my mistake with a smile, without any intention of refuting it. In fact, if the two of them had been told about the Dongfu, there would probably not be the current criticism meeting, because with all the magical help from the Dongfu, it would be impossible for anything in the world to defeat Zhao Yi. It is a pity that this cannot be leaked to the world, even if it is Even the closest wife can't do it, it has nothing to do with trust or distrust. But the more people who know, the more dangerous it is. "So now you have about 3000W of funds to use?" After hearing Xiaolizi's high odds, Leo still opposed Zhao Yi's desperate move at the time, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was worth the risk. . Zhao Yi looked at the cattle and sheep gradually appearing around him, nodded and said, "That's why I want to listen to your suggestions." "My suggestions." Leo fell into deep thought. To be honest, Zhao Yi gave him the impression of a young man who likes to play but is very ambitious. Now it seems that his intention to expand is very obvious. A ranchIt was not enough to satisfy him, and now taking the path of self-sufficiency in the slaughterhouse should be the best choice. "Yi, I agree with your idea. Sometimes I also wonder, the beef and mutton in our pasture are so good, why must they be given to outsiders at a cheaper price? Now that you have enough funds, why not build a modern slaughterhouse and be self-sufficient from now on? Self-sufficiency, oh my God, just thinking about it makes my blood boil with excitement." Zhao Yi heard Leo supporting him and turned to look at him after stopping the car: "That's great, old Leo, I was still thinking about this before I came here. Whether the plan is feasible or not, now that I heard you say that, I immediately became confident, and we will start building the factory immediately!" After saying that, he restarted the car and arrived at the dense herd in front of him in less than a minute. Aiko waited. The three of them were nesting there, among them Ken and Matsushita were on the other side gathering the poultry that ran around from time to time into one place, looking very busy. After turning off the engine and getting out of the car, Zhao Yi walked over to say hello to a few people. Everyone had not seen each other for a long time. They started chatting non-stop. Various topics came one after another, such as how Aiko and Ken competed, and which cow and sheep gave birth. Damn it, it¡¯s just trivial things. With the management of these people and the leadership of old Leo, there will be no big accidents in the ranch. After all, Leo has been in this industry for decades, and his experience is scary Seeing Panasonic in action Once he was smiling and listening to people talking by himself, Zhao Yi secretly thought that this guy was still so taciturn, so he walked over and asked: "Are you tired from working now? You must have been here for several months." Panasonic shook his head. : "There is nothing to do in the pasture. It seems that there is never enough grass to eat. Leo said that we don't even need to turn down the farm. We are responsible for keeping an eye on the livestock and poultry all year round, and then wait for them to grow fat and sell them to others. "Zhao Yi patted him on the shoulder: "Maybe Amaterasu is blessing you, he probably doesn't want you to get hurt!" After joking about Panasonic, Zhao Yi felt as if he had forgotten something. After Mia and Guoguo greeted everyone, they went to the artificial lake to play. Now Hi! Then forget about him. Zhao Yi quickly looked back. Sure enough, he saw Tommy sitting alone on his motorcycle in a daze. He took two steps and shouted: "Hey Tommy, what are you doing! Come on down, I want to introduce you to my future partners!" Tommy listened. Hearing the shout, he woke up from the state of [Wandering in Space], got out of the car and ran over. In fact, the main reason why he was stunned just now was because of the previous conversation between Zhao Yi and Leo. 80W betting on horse racing! This may seem like a trivial matter to the rich, just waving their hands and counting pocket money. But in Tommy's values, this is tantamount to suicide. Where can one be so successful in horse racing? Otherwise, there would be no big rich every year, but Yi actually placed a bet of 800,000 at once and won! This is simply unbelievable, and what¡¯s even more unbelievable is that the horse that won the championship seemed to be raised by Yi himself! After approaching, Zhao Yi helped introduce Tommy to Aiko and others: "He is Tommy, and he will work here with everyone in the future. I told Leo just now." Aiko and Ken are two big boys Lao Hei was quite enthusiastic. One of them put his arm around Tommy's shoulders, and the other laughed and said, "I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation when we work together in the future." Tommy was naturally very happy to see that this group was integrating well. Matsushita Shoichi also came to say hello to Tommy. Seeing that he also had yellow skin, the latter thought he was related to Zhao Yi, so he respected him quite a bit. Zhao Yi didn¡¯t point it out when he saw it. They will understand each other as they get along for a long time in the future. "Ken. You drive Tommy around on the motorcycle and let him know more about our ranch. This will help him do things here in the future." Leo came from behind and said to Ken. Ken nodded and drove the motorcycle, Tommy following closely behind. After the two left, Aiko and Panasonic chatted with Zhao Yi for a while, and then went to the other side to take care of the poultry. As the types of poultry on the ranch increased, the number of poultry types increased. Now Dahei and the other farm dogs cannot be managed by themselves, so two people must be separated to manage them personally. Otherwise, chickens, ducks, geese, and turkeys will run everywhere, and it will be very troublesome to gather them together. of. "Come Leo. Let's continue talking about the slaughterhouse." Zhao Yi pulled Leo towards a pile of haystacks not far away. After the two sat down, they stared at the cattle and sheep grazing around them and began to talk about slaughter. Field construction issues. On the other side, Tommy was sitting on his motorcycle, praising the surrounding scenery: "I envy you all to live here every day. The air here smells so good." Ken held the steering wheel and turned around with a smile: "Hey man "Why are you envious? You can work here in the future." Tommy felt ecstatic when he thought about being able to work here in the future. However, there are advantages and disadvantages, that is, when he meets his family in the future.It will be much less. I'll have to ask Yi how many holidays he gets every week, Tommy thought. Out of the corner of his eye, he happened to catch sight of a huge, beautiful lake nearby. In the middle of the lake, there were tall water jets spraying out, and there were strange things all around. Pavilions, as well as various flowers and woods. "This is our artificial lake. It was just built a few months ago. You can come here for fishing and swimming in your free time." Ken deliberately slowed down the car and pointed to a few stone benches on the edge of the lake. "Just sit over there. There are I found a fishing treasure, and I won there several times. ¡°There are also many creatures in this lake, including shrimps, fish, turtles, snails, crabs, etc. I will never get tired of fishing. ." Ken continued. "This is awesome. I like fishing the most. Unfortunately, I never had time before. But now it's better. I have the opportunity to come over and play every day." Tommy smiled excitedly. The two of them drove past the artificial lake. Later, Ken would introduce to Tommy the cattle and sheep sheds, barns and other buildings. In the artificial lake, Mia was swimming with Guoguo at the moment. This child likes to play in water very much. It's a common problem among children. In the evening, Leo and Mia were the chefs at the ranch and cooked a big meal to welcome Tommy's arrival. In fact, Zhao Yi was also very itchy. Now that he sees others cooking, he wants to show off his skills. Unfortunately, he only knows Chinese cuisine and is not very good at American cuisine. Early the next morning, Zhao Yi called Terry and made an appointment to discuss cooperation. This guy's artificial lake project was very good, and he had the guarantee of old Leo, so Zhao Yi trusted him. After meeting Terry. Zhao Yi found that he had lost a lot of weight. He remembered that this black man in his forties looked very strong when they first met. But now, not only has his body lost a little weight, but even his bald head has grown short black hair. "Yi, I didn't expect you to find me another big job not long after this. I don't know how to thank you." Terry and Zhao Yi hugged. Then he turned to Leo: "My brother, how are you living here?" Leo hugged Terry and bumped fists with him, smiling: "I don't know how good it is! I feel like I'm living in heaven now. "Haha, let's not stand outside and talk. Let's go inside." Zhao Yi led the two of them into the house and asked Mia to make a few cups of coffee and put them on the table. Guoguo came over and pestered Zhao Yi. In order to listen to the adults talking, Leo teased Guo Guo: "You little guy, can you understand what we are talking about?" "Yes!" Guo Guo raised his little head confidently, Zhao Yi had nothing to do with this child. , in the end it was Mia who came to the rescue and took the little girl away. After the world became quiet, Zhao Yi said straight to the point: "I came to you this time to talk about the slaughterhouse. In fact, after the cooperation with the artificial lake, I trust you very much." Zhao Yi came up without saying a word. A high hat made Terry feel embarrassed. Then he continued: "But artificial lakes and slaughterhouses are indeed two different concepts, so I don't know if you are sure about building a slaughterhouse." After hearing this, Terry nodded to express understanding and said: "What I want to say Yes, Yi, you should find an engineer who has experience in building a slaughterhouse, because the simple construction is the same, it is nothing more than doing water drainage, load-bearing, and other messy things, but every time. Each building requires a different layout. This requires professionals to lay out. "Leo interjected: "Yes, Yi, if you want to leave it all to Terry, I will be the first to object, because he will do it. There is almost no experience in this area, so I think we still need to find someone with experience to be the chief engineer. " "Chief engineer." Zhao Yi pondered and smiled bitterly: "But I don't know where to look. "Do you have any recommendations?" "If you believe me, maybe I can provide a few candidates." When Zhao Yi heard this, he looked at Leo, saw him nodding and said to Terry with a smile: "You were introduced by old Leo, of course I believe you." "Well, I will look for their contact information after I go back. I'll let you know when the result is," Terry said. "No problem." Zhao Yi nodded, and then asked again: "I almost forgot to ask, if I want to build a comprehensive modern slaughterhouse, how much will it cost?" "I don't know this very well, but it is estimated to be tens of millions. That¡¯s it,¡± Terry said. More than ten million, definitely more than this amount of money. Zhao Yi specifically checked on the Internet before. There are countless equipment needed to build that kind of large-scale modern slaughtering plant. Almost everything costs between hundreds of thousands to one million. Plus It seems that construction materials will cost money this time. After dinner in the evening, Zhao Yi took his family of three to say goodbye to Leo and the others. Guoguo has to go to kindergarten tomorrow, so tonightDefinitely going back. Before leaving, he asked Tommy to work hard here, and asked Leodo to take care of him. After all, he was just a newcomer, and he didn¡¯t know anything about the ranch. He would definitely be a little uncomfortable at first. As for Terry, he said that he would call Zhao Yi as soon as he got a letter, so all he can do now is wait. " Speaking of such a big thing as building a slaughterhouse, I have to talk to the boss. It just so happens that I can listen to his opinion. After all, he is also a shareholder. It is not good to always be the hands-off shopkeeper. Yes, we must trouble him!
