Chapter 32: Hans's Farm

The day after re-formulating a new plan with Kate, Link drove to Marina's farm with three bodyguards after getting a dripping in the morning and eating a nutritious lunch that Barbara had rushed home to make for him.

He was going to sign a contract today, and the temporary private lawyer he hired read the contract text he sent yesterday and said that there was no problem with the contract text. He made an appointment with John Eco to sign a contract with the owner of Marina's farm today.

At this time, the transaction is very simple, and all that remains is the signature. For him now, it was just a deal of more than 10 million, and it was not a big deal. But for the owner of Marina's farm, it was a sky-high contract. So the farmer over there also got a lawyer.

In the presence of two lawyers, the two parties quickly signed the contract. When Link handed over a check for more than $11 million to the original owner of Marina's farm in front of his lawyer, he officially became the owner of the 18,200-acre farm.

And the original owner of the farm has even packed up all his things, and after getting the check, he directly pulls away the things that are to be moved. As for the farm and all the facilities, including a two-story farm house, these are included in the farm deal and now belong to Link.

When all the other unrelated people had left, John walked up to Link and said, "Link, I'm going too." I immediately completed the final transfer of property with the contract. Only then will the farm be yours. ”

Link didn't hold back either, saying, "Okay." However, I would like to terminate the agreement on the national tourist area. I still need to trouble you about this. ”

John looked at him with a shy belly and said, "I suggest you find a professional lawyer to deal with this matter." The lawyer you just hired is a good fit. And I think you should find a private lawyer who you work with for a long time. In the future, if you run this farm, there will be many places where you will use it. ”

Link nodded and said, "Thank you for the suggestion." I'll seriously consider it. ”

He felt that John was right, that there was no lawyer in the United States who was dedicated to him, and sometimes it was really difficult to move an inch. Because when an individual files taxes, he does not have a lawyer, and he may not even know how much tax to pay and what taxes can be reduced.

Before, he was an ordinary salaryman and couldn't afford to support a private lawyer, so he found a temporary one to deal with something, but now the situation is different. He already has a property of his own, and this industry often needs to deal with the law, if there is something to hire a lawyer, such a lawyer is not familiar with him, and there will be a lot of difficulties in handling things.

And now his assets have exceeded $2.1 billion, and it is a real $2.1 billion in cash. In the future, whether it is investment or life, he may need a lawyer to help him deal with things at any time. Only a lawyer who has been working for a long time and knows him quite well about everything will meet his needs.

For a wealthy person, a private lawyer is arguably one of the most trusted people, and if there is something dirty on him, perhaps he does not need to tell his closest ones. However, it is necessary to consider talking to a lawyer. So he had to find a lawyer he could trust. But he clearly doesn't have that kind of person yet. The lawyer just now could have looked at it.

After John leaves, Link returns to the farm house that was already his own. The villa is quite large and has three small ensuites and five bathrooms in addition to the master bedroom. It is said that the original owner used to be a farmhouse and rented out the house to tourists.

The living room, master room and guest room in the villa are fully furnished and electrical, and the original owner did not remove these things.

He looked around and found that those things were still usable, ordinary furniture was fine, but he didn't plan to ask for those beds and the like, especially the master room. The bed that others have slept in, he is afraid that he will not be able to sleep on it. As for the bed in the guest room, maybe you can change the bed. At the same time, he may also need to make some small moves on the decoration of the villa.

He's a wealthy man now, and a phone call is made, and soon someone makes a special trip from Las Vegas to the farm. It's about looking at the house on the spot, and then working with Link to determine what kind of things to buy and how to decorate.

After Link identified the new appliances needed for the kitchen and room, the customer service agent from Las Vegas promised that within two days, all the things he needed would be delivered and installed.

Before he could leave the farm, John called and said, "Congratulations Link, you are already the true owner of Hans's farm." ”

This means that the transfer of ownership of the farm has been completed, and even the name has been changed.

"What about the sightseeing agreement?"

"I have applied for cancellation. I believe there will be no problem. John said with a smile. "I think it's been a pleasure to work with. ”

Link smiled and said, "Of course. I am impressed by your professionalism. ”

He paused, then said, "I've got your check ready." Will it be mailed to you or will you have someone pick it up?"

John laughed and said, "I'm going to Marlene, oh no, it's supposed to be Hans's Farm." Proof of ownership of the farm, I'm going to send it to you personally. "He didn't care that it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and getting the money in his hands was the most important thing.

Less than half an hour after the call, John went back to the farm villa. He held a file bag in his hand and said, "Are you planning to stay here tonight?"

Link smiled, shook his head and said, "Of course not. But in two days, I'll probably move here. "This villa can actually be moved in now, but there are some things he has to replace, and the whole house also needs to be cleaned once, and if it is renovated, it is not a big move, and he can move in at any time.

Benjamin brought over a cup of coffee.

After thanking him, John opened the file bag, took out some of the certificates inside, and said, "I have helped you with the title certificate and the change of farm name on various HACCP certifications." ”

It has to be said that it is much easier to let professional people do things, and all kinds of certifications have to be re-applied after the name of Hanse Fishery was changed. John, on the other hand, was able to change the name of the farm on it directly.

He picked up the certificates and documents and looked at them, and the projects he intended to operate had obtained the necessary permits. Although John died asking for money, he was still very neat.

Putting things back in his portfolio, he pulled out another check and said, "I'm very happy with this collaboration." ”

John smiled and took the check and looked at it, the numbers on it were the same as the numbers he calculated, and nodded with satisfaction: "I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future." ”

"I think I'll need your help with some things in the future. ”

John smiled and said, "Don't look for me." I'll be glad you talk to me about business, though. Of course, I'll consider giving you a discount. He said as he put the check in his briefcase.

Link smiled and said, "To celebrate our happy cooperation, I treat you to dinner." You can try Overtown's local steak specials. ”

…………

After dinner, Link returned home. The whole family was in the living room and saw him return. The first to greet her was Alice, "Link, you've already bought Marina's farm, right?"

Link watched as everyone else looked at him, waiting for his answer. He smiled and raised the briefcase in his hand and said, "Yes." Now you can call it Hans Farm. ”

"Great! Maybe, I'll have a horse on the farm in the future. ”

Cox smiled and said, "Link, maybe your farm will need temporary workers in the winter, and I will be a very good temporary worker." ”

Because the farm is more labor-intensive, even if it is a temporary worker, the salary is higher than that of his work in a fast food restaurant. Of course, if it's in Las Vegas, it's definitely going to be the other way around. After all, there is more tip income in big cities. It's just that neither Jeff nor his dad can agree that he will go to Las Vegas to work now. There weren't many farms around, and he didn't need a half-old child for temporary workers. Now that Link has a farm, he certainly has to bet on that.

Link didn't refuse him either: "If you're willing to give up the summer vacation, of course you can." ”

Barbara came up and gave him a hug, smiled and said, "Son, I'm proud of you." You're a big farmer now. ”

"Thank you, Mom!" Link couldn't help blurting out some words that he never said easily when he thought of the love that this adoptive mother who was different from his own skin color for more than ten years. "I love you, Mom!"

"I love you too, my child. The smile on Barbara's face was bright.

Jeff sat him down and said, "Does your farm have a plan to raise leaflip fish?"

Link was stunned for a moment, and asked with appropriate surprise, "Dad, are you saying that the fry over there in the fishing ground have eyebrows?"

"yes, I think we've found the key. The odds of success this time are great. Jeff said with a little pride. "Actually, it was close to success before, but Barry lost confidence. ”

Link listened to him and smiled and said, "Yes, I will plan to build about five hundred acres of breeding water on the farm." I think that's enough to breed leaf lipfish. ”

When he heard that he was going to build a 500-acre pond, Jeff also got his heart and said, "That's enough size, but if you want to breed leaf lipfish, the depth of the pond is a certain requirement." In addition, the leaf lip fish also has quite high requirements for water quality. ”

"Then Dad, what do you suggest. ”

"I need to think about it. Jeff didn't tell him what to do right away. He said with a deep groan. "You know the size of the pond, the depth of the water and all kinds of supporting breeding facilities, you have to plan accordingly. Even the water source has certain requirements, otherwise it will be quite difficult to apply for HACCP certification. ”

Link nodded and said, "You are an expert in this area, I am waiting for your advice." He paused and said. "Of course, maybe I'll also farm some rainbow trout. ”

"Maybe it's possible to polyculture. Although that was a fairly primitive way of farming. For example, some reservoirs and mountain ponds in China still use this farming method. However, they mainly breed Asian carp in that way, and the unit yield is very low. Of course, the cost is also low. ”

Link thought for a moment and said, "Maybe we can experiment with it." If the effect is good, we can also adopt that kind of farming method. ”

Both species belong to the salmon genus, and the grow-out cycle is relatively long, but it is also a good industry. Salmon are migratory fish, higher fishes with no intermuscular spines, and are still very popular in the United States, at least for rainbow trout. There are a number of freshwater ponds in the eastern United States where rainbow trout are farmed.

As for the leaf lipfish, it is endemic to the Colorado River and may be caught on Colorado and Colorado now, but it is already an endangered fish. If it can be artificially bred, even if it can't be farmed, as long as it attracts attention, it can make a profit even if it sells fish and releases them.
