Chapter 23 On How to Ride a Horse

A family wagon, a Volvo 760, turns off the road and drives along the side road.

When Brandon saw this purple lavender belt, as well as animals and green grass, he was inexplicably relaxed, and the young female driver was the same.

Most of the snow in the snow-capped mountains in the distance has melted, revealing a brown color, which looks a little abrupt against the blue sky, leaving only the top of the mountain with some snow, and a continuous forest underneath.

The grass in the pasture grew taller and greener than the others, and a pine tree grew alone in the meadow, and old Brandon looked at its wonderful form, as if he knew why his master had left it. Surrounded by factories and busy with work all day, he couldn't remember when he was comfortable like this.

"Or when was it? Yes, my grandmother's house where I lived when I was a kid. ”

"Maybe it's a good idea to buy a ranch after retirement. Brandon thought to himself, the corners of his slightly wrinkled mouth turned slightly, and he never took his eyes off the window, which is a scene only in landscape paintings.

As the vehicle progressed, a wooden house appeared in front of Brandon's eyes.

On the lawn in front of the door, the boy was straddled on the miniature donkey, but the little donkey lay on the ground, and his four hooves kicked towards the sky, anyway, he didn't give the boy a ride.

Angry, he grabbed the mini donkey's ears and rubbed them for a while, and when the boy left, the little donkey followed again. Old Brandon suddenly felt a little envious at this moment, his granddaughter was as old as him, but not as lively as him.

In the house, Han's father was bored and lying on the sofa, the TV series was not fun during the day, the cowboys took good care of the ranch, and he, the rancher, has now become an ornament.

Turning his head to look at the door, his son was feeding the snapping turtles, and his wife was also taking care of the vegetable garden with someone, as if he had nothing to do, and he couldn't help but feel a little empty.

It's just the opposite of Brandon's emotions, which makes people cry and laugh.

Hearing the sound of the car horn behind him, Xiao Han Xuan looked back at the car, and there were two strangers who got down, and he remembered yesterday's agreement in his mind, so he asked: "It's someone from Morgan Bank, right?" My father is in the house, please follow me to find him." ”

"Okay, then I'll bother you. ”

Brandon Sr. said with a smile, and asked Han Xuan as he walked towards the room, "Boy, what is your name?" “

"Of course I know, it's the largest bank in the United States, my name is Han Xuan. The child was afraid that the loan would not be approved, so he quietly patted the middle-aged man's ass and looked at him with big eyes.

The young woman who looked like a secretary next to her covered her mouth and asked in shock, "Are you that genius child in Montana!?"

"Yes, I'm just slightly smarter. Han Xuan showed a shy expression at the time, but he was very proud in his heart, and secretly sighed that he wanted to shoot people's ass, but he didn't expect to be photographed by others first

Brandon seems to have heard about it, and his eyes widened when he remembered the news a few years ago: "You are that Chinese child." ”

"I guess they're talking about me. ”

"Wow, I actually saw it alive. The female secretary reached out and rubbed his head, happily.

The boy's smile froze on his face, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and he felt that this sentence was strange no matter how he heard it, so he turned back and spoke depressedly: "Madam, thank you for the compliment." ”

"My name is Sheryl, is it true what the newspaper Chinese s say?

"Yes, but now I know four subjects, and I learned French some time ago. ”

"Wow, that's awesome, can you tell me about it?"

"Of course, Lady Cheryl, you are such a beautiful and verbose person. ”

Brandon laughed out loud, and Cheryl looked at him with a puzzled look, and Brandon Sr. explained, "He's complimenting you on your beauty, Cheryl." ”

"Thank you, boy. The female secretary touched Xiao Han Xuan's head again, raised her head and said to old Brandon: "Manager, is this a funny thing? ”

"It just occurred to me one thing that was fun, you don't mind, Cheryl. Brandon Sr. winked at the boy, and the boy immediately gave him a grateful look, he didn't expect that there was anyone present who could speak French.

"But"

"Alright, Cheryl, you'll talk to this lovely boy when you're done with your work. ”

Brandon said to the secretary and explained to the boy with a smile: "I studied at INSEAD European Business School in France. ”

"I know it, the MBA program is fantastic. ”

"That's why I'm the manager, you're so knowledgeable, little genius. ”

"Thank you. ”

Father Han had already come out at the door, and Old Brandon took two steps forward and stretched out his hand to him: "Mr. Han, your son is so smart, much better than my granddaughter." ”

"He's usually naughty, it's better to be a girl, do you have a granddaughter at such a young age? ”

"Haha, thank you, I met your father a few years ago, he is a very capable person. Brandon Sr. said: "I just came to ask you about the situation today, this ranch is very good, if it goes well, you can sign the contract later, we have prepared a very low interest rate, I believe you will be satisfied." ”

"Let's sit down. Father Han beckoned to them, and when he entered the room, he asked, "So what is the arrangement in terms of interest rates?"

Cheryl sat on the sofa and took out a document from her bag and gave it to Han Qianshan, and Brandon Sr. explained: "Your Snow Mountain Ranch is worth about $23 million after the previous Augsg Ranch, plus cattle and sheep, etc., we JP Morgan will calculate $26 million for you." ”

"Because of your father's relationship, the company can give you a full loan with an interest rate of only 3.1% per annum, which is the lowest contract. ”

Xiao Han Xuan was puzzled and said, "My grandfather, does he know about this?"

Old Brandon shook his head: "No, because your grandfather is an important customer of our company, and I believe that Mr. Han is as good as him, as can be seen from this ranch." ”

"We are investing in the early stage, and the only additional contract is that you will be given priority to use JPMorgan Bank to conduct business in the future, and we will assign someone to take care of the funds. ”

Looking at the contract in his hand, Han Qianshan thought about it for a while: "This is really very generous, how long is the duration of the additional contract?"

"Until you pay off the loan. ”

"Mr. Brandon, my lawyer probably what's going on, it's not here yet, how about waiting for him to come and read it? Father Han asked Brandon.

"No problem, Shelley and I don't have anything to do today. By the way, I just saw some quarthorses in the stable, Mr. Han, can I try it?"

"No problem, but I'm going to call the law firm first to ask about the situation, and then let my son take you there, he is very familiar, I'll go to you later." ”

"It's okay, I just wanted to talk to him. Cheryl interjected, and the boy next to her suddenly went dark.

Also known as "quarter mile horses", the quartem horses are mostly solid color and look very beautiful. They have strong muscles and are known for their ability to sprint short distances, making them a favorite breed of horse for American cowboys.

When passing by the cowshed, he saw Anderson and John cleaning inside, and Han Xuan just called them and instructed the two novices to ride. Naturally, John gave up Cheryl to Anderson, and the two were about the same age, and he himself talked to Brandon Sr.

Xiao Han Xuan sat on the railing, looked at the two people who were eager to try and the tall Quartma, and then turned his head to look at McDull, feeling that the road ahead was far away.

Fortunately, the old Barton next to him saw his embarrassment, walked up to the boy and squatted down, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter, little cowboy, do you want to ride a horse?"

Han Xuanfei nodded quickly, only to see Old Bart turn around and walk away, and was puzzled in his heart, when he saw him leading a white mare out.

"Come on little cowboy, I'll let it show you around. ”

"Yes!"

"Don't worry, I'll teach you how to ride a horse first. ”

"Yes! ”

"The most important thing about riding a horse is to communicate with them, they are choosing horses, and horses are choosing people. The quartma is very spiritual, it can sense people's emotions, such as the present. ”

Old Patton paused and looked at the horse beside him: "It's happy, get on it, little cowboy!"

……

At noon, the sun hung overhead, and people walked by on the steppe in the distance.

"This is horseback riding?" asked the old man.

"Of course, you're too small, and it's dangerous to be alone, doesn't it feel good?"

I saw the boy sitting on horseback, old Patton clutching the reins, the ground was soft grass, and the boy was also wearing a full set of protective gear, and this was slower than walking, it was really strange to fall.

The old cowboy ignored the boy's resentful eyes, led him farther and farther, and could faintly hear a sentence in Chinese wafting in the wind: "What a horse"
