Body 403 Suspicion

Next chapter

"It's said that anthrax has been contracted in a large area of pastures in Tennessee?" Jensen said suddenly, and everyone was not surprised at first hearing the news. △￠

"Anthrax, how can it be this damn disease. A rancher couldn't help but exclaim, fortunately, the incident site was far away in Tennessee, otherwise if there was another problem with the pasture, plus the problem of feed, it would be really worse, and it would be a disaster for Montana's animal husbandry.

Zeng Gong couldn't help but get nervous when he heard this, as a rancher, the last thing he wanted to see was that there was a problem in his ranch, anthrax, downy mildew, etc., but he was their great enemy.

"Tennessee has been the most rainy since the beginning of spring, the wet air and the moist land have created favorable conditions for anthracnose, and their remaining hay rolls are scattered in this pasture, and the lack of sunlight for a long time has directly nourished the germs and spread rapidly, and has now caused incalculable damage in Tennessee, some ranchers' pastures have been completely devoured by the relentless disease, and about three million acres of pasture have all withered. Jensen shook his head, and his friends in Tennessee described it as something that still haunts him.

"This..." God, how could it be so strict, Zeng Gong himself felt that his heart slowed down by half a beat, and the germs that swept through the entire Tennessee state were simply a disaster.

"Now there are a lot of ranchers who have gone bankrupt, some ranchers who can't repay their loans when they are due, their own land, and horse racing have been sent to auction, and everyone can take the opportunity to make a profit, and some guys in the east have begun to take advantage of the fire to rob. Jensen said suddenly.

Tennessee is located in the southeastern part of the United States, with a subtropical monsoon climate, which can be said to be a prime location for farming and breeding, and there is no shortage of rain. The sale of ranches there has always been a big hit, and this time is no exception, some old crocodiles must be eyeing there, and it is estimated that they will not even be able to drink the soup if they go late.

The ranchers felt that what Jensen said was very reasonable, you look at me, I look at you, and they all saw embarrassment, concern, and even lack of strength in each other's eyes. If Zeng Gong takes out a loan, the major banks will find Zeng Gong waving a checkbook even if they are dying, and their loan is only enough for their investment this year.

"You guys, look at what I'm doing, I'm not interested in Tennessee's affairs. Zeng Gong was a little hairy by a group of ranchers, put down the barbecue in his hand, and spread his hands with interest. expressed his meaning.

"Not interested? What a great opportunity, there is an anthrax outbreak in Tennessee, and some buyers will definitely be hesitant not to pay more, what a great opportunity, how can you not be interested." A rancher grinned and kept smashing his mouth, feeling sorry for him.

"Qinglian Ranch is about to build Qinglian Weir in a big way, and I don't have more energy to invest thousands of miles away. Moreover, Qinglian Ranch has expanded its area by nearly seventy times in a few months, which is too short. I'm going to digest it, but if any of you want to invest, I can lend you a little bit at a low interest. Zeng Gong frowned and said solemnly, if the place was near Qinglian Ranch, he would annex it at any time, but unfortunately it was thousands of miles away. Even taking care of it is beyond the reach of the whip.

Zeng Gong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and immediately dimmed again, this year they are not easier than Zeng Gong, the preparations for ranch tourism are still in progress, and the surrounding fence needs to be removed. Appraisers and accountants also have to calculate the proportion of their investments, so as to save any confusion from time to time.

"Why isn't anyone interested?" Jensen couldn't help but ask, his highest expectation Zeng Gong made him disappointed to make it clear that he would not invest in Tennessee, and even more so the other ranchers seemed to have already looked forward to it, and he was a little anxious.

"What, Jensen, do you want to invest?" Zeng Gong frowned slightly, not knowing why this guy was so active, it seemed that he was agitating from the beginning.

"Investment?" Jensen said in an unnatural tone, "My ranch is only a few hundred acres in size, and I can't raise more money to invest in Tennessee." ”

"Then how about I lend you some money at a low interest?" Zeng Gong said with some amusement, staring at Jensen with blazing eyes, as if he had something to say.

Jensen immediately shook his head like a rattle, and said with some emotion: "Zeng, thank you for your kindness, I am going to sell the ranch and go to California to run a small vineyard, and I have no more energy to run a ranch." ”

"That's a shame. Zeng Gong shrugged his shoulders and said noncommittally, glanced at him meaningfully, and touched a glass with him with a wine glass.

Jensen just smiled awkwardly, looked down at his watch, and said with some embarrassment: "Zeng, I'm going back, it's too late now, my wife is home alone, I don't worry." ”

"You've drunk a lot of wine, wouldn't it be too dangerous to go back, so you might as well stay with me for one night." Zeng Gong asked pretending to be surprised, as if he didn't understand why Jensen had left suddenly.

"It's okay, there are almost no cars on the road now, and any problems on the road require technical content. Jensen stood up as he spoke, and said with some stubbornness.

Seeing Jensen's insistence, Zeng Gong had to look at a cowboy and ask him to send Jensen to his pickup, and he asked in a low voice.

"White and Williams, you know a lot of people, and I don't think I've seen this guy named Jensen before. Zeng Gong looked back at Jensen, who had disappeared into the night, and asked with a stern expression.

White and Williams looked at each other, and then White said, "I've met this Jensen a few times, he only came to Montana at the end of last year, and he has hundreds of acres of land next to your ranch, and he has been living in seclusion, and he basically does the work on the ranch. ”

At the end of last year, Zeng Gong frowned, hearing White say this, it seemed that there was nothing suspicious about this guy named Jensen, but he always felt that something was wrong.

"Zeng, do you suspect that this Jensen has bad intentions?" Williams looked at Zeng Gong in some surprise, and suddenly figured out a little, but his brain felt even more chaotic, and things began to be confusing.

"I'm just skeptical, there's no more evidence. Zeng Gong shook his head, his fingers constantly rubbing the few mustaches on his chin
