Chapter 606: Pretending to be Sick
It raced to the tent door.
The lemmings and rabbits were very afraid of this little guy more than 30 centimeters long, and immediately avoided it.
Han Xuan and Anya were cute at the first sight of it, it was a pure white ferret, babbling in its mouth, as if it was very excited.
climbed onto her along Dai Ni's clothes, turned over in Dai Ni's arms, massaged her, and looked at Han Xuan with curious eyes
When people think of ferrets, they always think that ferrets are white, but in fact, there are very few pure white ferrets in nature, and now there are more than 800,000 residents in the United States who raise this cute little thing.
Anya touched it, and the ferret rolled over comfortably, its tail wagged, and looked up to ask Dani, "Where did you buy it from?"
"No, it's a wild one.
It was snowing one night and it hid in front of my house and I picked it up when I got up in the morning. ”
Dani rubbed her face against it and placed the ferret named Holly in Anya's arms.
The little one is cute no matter how you look at it.
Anya smiled and took off her gloves and stroked its smooth hair.
Han Xuan was speechless and said, "So you put it here?"
Ferrets are carnivores, and living with these lemmings and rabbits is not harmful to them. ”
"No, my Holly is the most well-behaved, and it won't eat them when it's fed. "Dani looks like a nymphomaniac, probably kissing Joanna again last night, and she is in a good mood.
The baby ferret is still a young and can grow up to half a meter long when it reaches adulthood.
It liked the smell of Anya, and quickly jumped from its arm to her hat, curling its body and lying down.
Han Xuan touched its tail, but it was disgusted, and the ferret shook its tail, dodged Han Xuan's hand, and spit out a pink tongue to make a grimace
The temperature of this greenhouse is about ten degrees, and the smell of animals is mixed with a bad smell, Han Xuan suggested: "Let's go out first, how are the vegetables growing this winter?"
This sentence was asked to Dani, who works on the plantation and knows about the situation here, and replied: "It's good, but vegetables grow slowly in winter and are more expensive."
We burn a stove in the vegetable shed, use carbon dioxide and warm lamps to warm the temperature, the temperature can reach 13 to 20 degrees, and we grow cabbage, lettuce, which are easy to grow and hardy.
The last batch of vegetables was transported two days ago, and now the workers are on vacation, as long as the temperature in the greenhouse is adjusted.
Next year, these vegetable sheds will be renovated, and now they are all plastic films, and the temperature is dissipated too quickly.
Mr. Lewis intended to build the wall with bricks on both sides, leaving the top covered with plastic film to allow sunlight to shine in. ”
The vegetable greenhouse, which was crushed by the snow in the first two months, is still broken, and it will not be repaired until spring.
Han Xuan lay next to a vegetable shed, put his face on the transparent film and looked in, under the two rows of hanging warm lamps, there was a burning stove more than ten meters apart.
Workers carry oxygen cylinders on their backs and are helping to add coal to the stove, which has a high concentration of carbon dioxide and can be poisoned without protective tools.
Montana is rich in coal resources, more than 40 kilometers away from the town of Augusta, there is a coal mining site, from where the price of coal is very cheap.
The mine, located on the east side of the snow-capped mountain pasture, has little impact on the ranch's environment, but the downstream Mori River water has been polluted by the mine, and the government is planning to close it.
Calculating the area of his own vegetable planting area, Han Xuan knew that the coal needed every day must be a shocking number.
However, there were only two snow-covered coal mountains around, but there were no cinders, and he asked, "What do you do with the coal after it burns?"
"Landfill into septic tanks, the newly built septic tanks have been put into use, the old equipment can't keep up, and now it's closed.
Fill it with cinder to absorb the harmful substances inside, and cover it with a layer of soil so that you can plant grass next year.
When it was filled, the remaining cinders were sold to the brick yard in Bynum Town, where they were made into bricks with clay and sold to us cheaply, which they used to rebuild in the spring. ”
Finding that Dani was serious and answered her own question, Han Xuan couldn't help but look at her and laughed, "Yo, it turns out that you don't just play?"
"Of course, I'm serious at work!
These were plans made by Mr. Lewis, and I collected the information myself, and I didn't waste the cinders at all. ”
With a foul look on her face, Dani crossed a path covered in snow to the door of a wooden house, and pointed to it, "This is where Mr. Lewis's house is, and he recently had a relationship with an employee named Madeleine."
Lady Madeleine should take care of him at his house at this time, so let's not disturb them, right?"
"Leaving when I give the gift to Lewis is very helpful. Han Xuan smiled and walked up the wooden ladder and knocked on the door: "Are you at home, Lewis?"
"Han Xuan? wait!
Please come in, the door is unlocked!"
In the cabin, Lewis's voice came out, his feet clattering on the plank, as if he was in a hurry.
Han Xuan twisted the cold handle, pushed the door open, and the heating came to his face.
On the sofa, a blonde woman wearing a black cotton jacket with freckles on her fair face is very in line with the aesthetics of the Oriental.
She smiled and said, "Happy New Year, little boss." ”
"Happy New Year, Madeleine.
Lewis, where are you going on vacation?
Don't pack it, I see the suitcase behind the couch. ”
Han Xuan was angry and said to Lewis, who was lying on the sofa covered with a blanket and wearing shoes on his feet, his face was obviously too healthy.
The hanger was placed on the dining table, and there was a passport, and he definitely planned to go far away, and continued: "You are really well-intentioned in order to skip work.
Just tell me where you want to go, you don't seem to have taken a vacation this year, you have a holiday. ”
Lewis sat up awkwardly:
"I was really sick.
I feel itchy in my throat, like something is stuck, I can't cough it out and swallow it, and I feel nauseous and retching when I brush my teeth in the morning. ”
Han Xuan felt as if he had heard this somewhere, raised his eyebrows and said, "You have chronic pharyngitis, and a white cloth on your head is useless, and I also helped you bring antipyretics."
Say, where are you going?"
"Ahem and Madeleine's parents went on vacation to Sicily, Italy.
If I hadn't gotten sick, Kerry would have gone home for the New Year, and there would be no one to take care of the plantation. ”
Lewis lifted the covers and got up to pour water for them.
Kerry is a technician on the plantation and usually takes care of the vegetables, and he is arguably the most experienced except for Lewis.
Han Xuan looked at him and Madeleine with ambiguous eyes, the two of them had already developed to this stage, and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Kerry is here, then I will give you ten days off."
This is a reward for you this year, I hope you can have a pleasant trip, and I will give you a red envelope when you get married. ”
When Lewis heard this, he couldn't help but smile, took the check with $50,000 written on it from Han Xuan's hand, and his smile became even brighter, "Of course I want to invite you, ten days off is enough, I will definitely come back on time!"
"So be it, you guys go ahead and clean up.
When the helicopter returns from the town of Sweet-Grasse, I will ask Mr. Benjamin to take you to the airport. ”
"No, no, Madeleine's parents are old, it's better to go by car, thank you for your kindness......"
After chatting for a while, I said goodbye and left.
It was close to noon, Han Xuan sat in the driver's seat of the snowmobile, patted the back seat, and said to Jason, "Come up, I'll take you back!"
Jason looked unconvinced and asked him, "Will you do this?" ”
"It's okay, isn't it just like a motorcycle, it's safe" (To be continued.) )
