Chapter 108: A Man's Daily Life (Asking for Recommendations)
The accident that happened in the car seemed to make Jessica feel quite unbeautiful. She changed her mind and didn't plan to go to the bar anymore, but wanted to go back to her place immediately.
After arriving at her accommodation, Jessica got out of the car without saying a word.
Link thought for a moment, got out of the car, and shouted behind her, "Hey, Jessica, I'm sorry! ”
Jessica stopped, turned around, and said with a smile, "It's me who is too sensitive, in fact, Rosie always likes to secretly add my mouth before." ”
Rosie's mouth is indeed excessive. Link thought of a man who took advantage of her inattention to add her lips, and he felt a little jealous in his heart.
"You didn't beat him?"
Jessica giggled and said, "Yes, but it never changes." ”
"It?" Link felt as if he had fallen into some trap.
Sure enough, Jessica smiled and said, "Like, Rosie is a dog I had before." It also loves my perfect lips. ”
Link said amusedly, "Okay. Have a good dream!"
"So are you! ”
The next day, Link calls and invites Jessica to join him for breakfast.
Jessica didn't seem to be up yet, and a lazy voice rang on the phone, "Apologies for what happened last night?"
Link didn't know what to say, "No. I've apologized for what happened last night. He said again. "I never apologize more than once unless I regret something. I mean, I just wanted to have breakfast with you and say goodbye to you in person. ”
Jessica laughed on the phone and said, "But I haven't slept enough!"
Link thought for a moment and said, "Okay then. I'll be back to Nevada after I've finished my order. I don't disturb your rest. See you soon!"
Jessica stared at the phone for a long time, and finally confirmed that Link had hung up the phone like that. Annoyed, she threw her phone down on the bed, then pulled the quilt over her head and sulked in a veritable way.
……
Link takes the plane back to Las Vegas.
He left the matter of investing in the California Agricultural Services Corporation to a few private attorneys.
He returns to Hans's farm to find out that Jeff is in the fishing grounds. He drove over and saw Jeff directing the workers to erect the scaffolding.
He knew about building a greenhouse for the fish to survive the winter.
He found Jeff, who was busy with his work: "Dad, how is it? Can you do it before the cold spell comes?"
Jeff nodded and said, "It's going to be tight, but it shouldn't be a problem to hurry." ”
The cold wave is coming, and the pond fish are not yet ready to be caught. There are no factories or power plants nearby that can heat the fish soup. In order to ensure that these fish can safely overwinter, building a greenhouse is the best way, although the cost is quite high, but after building a greenhouse, the temperature in the greenhouse can be guaranteed to be quite high, so that the water temperature can be maintained to meet the needs of the normal growth of the fish, so that the farmed fish can also gain weight in winter.
The investment is indeed not small, but these things are a one-time investment, and in the future, as long as you pay manpower to build a greenhouse, then the calculation investment will be much less.
"That's good!" These hundreds of acres of ponds are worth at least eight million. If you die because of this cold wave, you will really throw your money in the water.
Jeff asked worriedly, "There is a high possibility of a big snowstorm over there in Huazhou." ”
"Yes. Ozette has plenty of moisture, and snow is likely to fall as soon as the cold spell arrives. Link said with a smile. "But there are enough cattle pens and there aren't too many cattle raised. The herd is safe for the winter. ”
"I'm worried about the grapes. Heavy snow may not freeze the grapes to death, but I'm worried about frost. The same goes for the other two farms. ”
"Albert also gave me advice. Appropriate precautions have been taken. "The grapes are still very resistant to frost.
He didn't bother Jeff too much, and it wasn't long before he returned to the villa. Happened to meet Benjamin in the villa.
Benjamin was there to report to him about the new cattle slaughterhouse on the farm.
The reason why it is not called a slaughterhouse is because there are only more than 1,000 cattle raised on Hans Farm, and on average only one or two cattle need to be slaughtered a day, and there is no slaughterhouse at all.
This slaughterhouse is very different from those slaughterhouses. He built the animal slaughterhouse mainly to carry out the "farm-to-kitchen movement" that has been gradually obliterated by the commercial slaughtering industry.
The slaughterhouse is actually a house, and when the cattle are pulled in, they are washed and slaughtered, skinned, and then dismembered. The dismembered cattle are moved to another workshop for separation. In order to avoid cross-contamination between different cattle.
Hanse farms have relatively few cattle, so only one such slaughterhouse is sufficient. At Hanova Farm, about fifteen to twenty cows are slaughtered every day, so six of those slaughterhouses need to be built there. Ozette slaughtered 50 to 60 cattle a day, and a small slaughterhouse was built.
After listening to Benjamin's debriefing. Link frowned and said, "Then these workshops won't be used until next spring." ”
"Yes. The cattle we need to sell have been sold, and the rest will be of optimal selling age by the beginning of summer. ”
"So be it. ”
In winter, production on several farms came to a standstill, and there was relatively little to do. Link is also more idle.
The cold spell was two days late, but a heavy snowfall at Ozette Farm dropped two and a half feet of snow. There was also a light snowfall at Hanova Farm. Hanse Farm wasn't much affected, but temperatures in Nevada were cooler than usual for this time of year.
On this day, the outdoor temperature at Hans's farm was only 2 degrees Celsius. And it's very windy. There are few animals moving outside the farm.
Link was talking to Fren on the phone.
"I've heard that snow on the streets of New York can drown street lights. ”
"It's a bit of an exaggeration, but when I went out in the morning, I thought my car had been stolen. In fact, it was just buried in the snow. ”
At this time, the entire northeastern United States was hit by a snowstorm because of this cold wave, and millions of people were without water and electricity. Flenn smiled so happily, but he was actually very unsympathetic. But Link knew he had a reason to laugh.
"It seems that you have succeeded!"
"We succeeded. And it was a big success. Do you know. At the beginning of this morning, crude oil futures rose 1.1%. Flon said with a smile. "We're rich. Link. By now, your $2.7 billion in Stoll has turned into four or three billion. Of course, you also have to pay taxes. ”
Link also smiled and said, "That's ten good news, but maybe you should get some bodyguards right away." The people on Wall Street may be plotting to kill you. ”
"Yes. I think they will. This time they ate a large mouse. I think they're going to die of nausea. ”
"It seems that the benefits of your planning this time are greater than you expected. Link had heard that he had made more than $1.6 billion, which was much higher than the yield that Fllen had proposed when he first lobbied him to invest.
The ten at this end of the ten had already put away his smile and said, "I have to say, my luck is very good." I just bought a large order, and the weather bureau predicted the arrival of a cold wave that night. That allowed oil prices to start to recover on the second trading day. Yesterday there was a blizzard, and today it has risen quite a bit. ”
"When will you stop?"
"After about a week, maybe after a week there will be fluctuations. It's time for us to withdraw. "Flon doesn't seem to be going to be too greedy. "They don't dare to cause a real oil crisis, and they could release crude oil reserves at any time. ”
Link didn't have to worry about the money he put in Stoll when he said that. At least for now, it seems that Flen is really well researched about the operation of insider speculation.
He thought for a moment and said, "Well, in a week, I'll redeem three billion dollars." ”
"Is it after taxes, or before taxes?"
"After taxes. "He still has a lot of cash, but Furlen has said before that he doesn't want to take too much money from other people.
Flon thought for a moment and said, "OK." I'll be ready next week. Why don't you take a trip to New York? Formalities are done in New York. ”
Link saw that the three farms were relatively idle during this time, so he agreed: "It's okay." I haven't been to New York since I'm so old. ”
"New York is not a good city. It's both heaven and hell. ”
"It just so happens that I can visit Heaven and Hell in advance, and I can choose later. ”
"Haha, I'm waiting for you in heaven and hell!"
Link then took advantage of his free time to attend an annual board of directors at the MGM Grand Hotel. He only listened to the shareholders and had no intention of expressing his opinion.
After the meeting, he returned to his villa on Bakers Avenue. He was about to enter the door when it opened. A young woman came out of it: "Honey, you're back." ”
"You're not leaving?" Link's face was a little uneasy. This woman was called by him last night, and she was an acquaintance.
The woman smiled and said, "You were so good last night, I couldn't help but sleep longer." But I'm leaving. ”
Link nodded.
"Hope to see you soon next time. The woman smiled and kissed him on the cheek, then twisted her waist and got into a red car and drove away.
The two bodyguards behind him acted as if they hadn't seen anything, and followed Link into the villa.
Link walked into the bedroom, took everything from the quilt, threw it in the trash, and got a new one.
After taking care of the bedroom, he returned to Overtown with his bodyguards.
Barbara no longer works at the piccia, and she happens to be there at noon. When he opened the door and saw him, he hurriedly asked him to come in: "Link, come in, it's very cold this day." Since moving here, I haven't encountered such a cold day. ”
"Isn't Dad at home?" Hans Fishery is now on vacation because of the weather, and it is such a cold day, Jeff should be at home.
"You're looking for him?" he went out, saying he was going to talk to the Bureau of Oceans and Animal Protection about the release of the leaflip fish. ”
When Link heard this, he smiled and said, "I just thought he was in the study." The release of the leaflip fish is finally on the agenda?"
"Yes, I heard that they plan to buy 200,000 fish fry, let's see the effect of the release. If the results are good, a larger release will be carried out in the future. ”
"That's good news!"
Barbara poured her a cup of coffee and smiled and said, "Yes, that's good news indeed." Jeff has been happy about it lately. ”
"He's finally close to making it, and it's something to be happy about. Link sat down on the couch and took a sip of coffee. "Mom, I'm going to New York tomorrow. ”
