Davis and Johnson were very efficient, and it wasn't long before local officials came to their door and told Xiao Ping that they had been notified by the U.S. Department of Agriculture that Lillian's ranch was now officially declared a biologically contaminated area.

Along with the county officials, there were also quite a few government officials. After officials announced the USDA's decision to Mr. Xiaoping, the workers immediately got to work. A team of people set up a cordon at the gate of the ranch and erected a sign labeling "Biological and Genetic Contamination Zone". The other group went inside the ranch and began to seal away any plants they could see. Even pasture-growing areas are marked with "No Entry" signs.

In short, because of the misleading by Davis and Johnson, the local government can be described as a serious enemy of Lilian Ranch. They did almost everything they could to prevent it, and just waited for the test report to come out, and then destroyed all the sealed plants in one go.

If it really gets to that point, Xiao Ping, who is the owner of the ranch and provides all these plant seeds, will certainly not be able to get out easily. Huge fines will certainly not be escaped, and you may even go to jail for violating US laws involving genetically modified plants. In fact, there are several policemen stationed outside the ranch at the moment, in order to prevent Xiao Ping from absconding in fear of crime.

At the same time as government officials cordoned off Lilian's ranch, a group of reporters also appeared outside the ranch's gate and began reporting on Lilian's ranch for allegedly planting illegal genetically modified plants. Xiao Ping was on the third floor of the ranch building, looking at the large number of reporters outside the ranch, with a sneer on his face.

It doesn't take to know where these guys with a keen sense of smell got the news, and it seems that the mastermind behind the report to the Ministry of Agriculture is determined to destroy Lillian's Ranch and the trademark "Holy Pot", which is why they are so unscrupulous.

"Let's make trouble. The more violent the trouble is now, the more good fruit there will be to eat at that time!" Xiao Ping muttered to himself. Then he closed the curtains and went downstairs.

As soon as Xiao Ping came downstairs, he saw Mark, who had gone to a nearby pasture to buy pasture, hurriedly walked in. So he immediately asked him, "Mark, have you bought the grass?"

Mark went to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of drink, filled most of it in one go, and replied, "I walked around a few nearby ranches and bought enough grass for our livestock to feed for half a month." ”

"Half a month......" Xiao Ping muttered: "It should be about the same, but you still have to be more prepared just in case." ”

Mark said anxiously: "Boss, now the grass is not the key to the problem, the key is the problem of this biological genetic contamination area, you can turn on the TV and take a look!"

Xiao Ping casually picked up the remote control and turned on the TV, just changed to the local news channel. I saw a brown-haired female reporter doing a live report.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Michelle Lee from Sky Six, and I'm reporting live to you at Lillian Ranch. The female reporter said with a serious face: "According to the latest news obtained by this station, the Ministry of Agriculture believes that Lilian Ranch is suspected of planting a variety of genetically modified plants, and has declared the ranch to be a biological genetic contamination area." All the plants in the pasture – including the pasture – have now been mothballed, and officials from the Ministry of Agriculture have collected samples of the plants and sent them to a specialist body for testing to determine if the rumors are true......"

"This female reporter is not as pretty as Jessica. Xiao Ping commented on the female reporter's appearance, and then changed the channel.

The reporter on the other channel was a tall man. The news of Lilian Ranch is also being reported: "Lilian Ranch is the supplier of high-end ingredients of the 'Holy Pot' brand that has recently swept the country, and now the scandal of illegal cultivation of genetically modified plants has been exposed, which will definitely deal a fatal blow to the sales and brand image of the 'Holy Pot' brand ingredients."

As far as we know, after the news broke. A number of high-end hotels have announced the suspension of the sale of all 'Holy Pot' brand ingredients. Several large supermarkets have also temporarily removed the 'Holy Pot' brand ingredients from the shelves, and the supermarkets have announced whether these ingredients can be re-sold. It will not be decided until the results of the final appraisal of the Ministry of Agriculture come out. So far, neither the Department of Agriculture nor Lilian Ranch has made any comments on this. ”

Seeing this, Xiao Ping shook his head. Turning off the TV, he said, "The effects are starting to appear." ”

These news made Jessica feel heavy, and she couldn't help but ask Xiao Ping: "What should we do now?"

"Before the test report comes out. There is only so much we can do. Xiao Ping muttered: "I plan to go to the Ministry of Agriculture and urge them to hand over the test report as soon as possible." Jessica, don't stay here either, go to your friends in the media and ask who told them about the investigation of our ranch. I don't believe that if it wasn't for someone with ulterior motives, this news could have spread so quickly!"

Jessica nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, I'll go to New York as soon as possible to inquire about the news." ”

Seeing that Xiao Ping and Jessica had something to do, Mark asked anxiously, "Then what am I doing?"

"Of course, you stick to the pasture, and you have to take care of the livestock and the vegetables and grass you grow here, and you can open the package as soon as the test results come out. Xiao Ping patted Mark on the shoulder and said, "There is another important thing, that is, don't forget to start renovating the ranch you just bought as soon as possible, and you will plant winter wheat this autumn!"

Mark asked Xiao Ping with some surprise: "Start the transformation now, don't you wait to talk about it?"

"Time waits for no one. Xiao Ping smiled faintly: "And as long as we wait for the test report to come out, everything will be revealed, and we can't waste time for this little twist and turn." ”

Xiao Ping's calm attitude infected Mark, and he nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, I will take care of the ranch!"

"Don't worry. Xiao Ping said to Mark seriously: "The ranch will be fine, just wait for the good news!"

Later that day, police and some reporters were still standing guard outside Lillian's ranch. The police were worried that Xiao Ping would abscond in fear of crime, while the reporter hoped to interview the owner of the ranch, even if he could secretly take some footage.

At this moment, there was a slight rumbling sound in the air, and as the sound grew louder and louder, the group soon noticed that a helicopter was rapidly approaching and stopped steadily in the clearing in the pasture.

Under the unexpected gaze of the police and reporters, Xiao Ping and Jessica got into the helicopter together. The helicopter was quickly re-launched and disappeared from view soon after.

"Quick, report to headquarters!" A policeman reminded his companion loudly: "Just say that the suspect escaped by plane, and ask them to find out where the plane may land immediately!"

Another policeman looked at his overly excited colleague in a daze, and only reminded him in a whisper: "We are just ordered to watch, in fact, there are no suspects here, at least for now, everyone in the ranch is free." ”

was reminded by his colleague that the policeman calmed down, and then he realized that his performance just now had been filmed by the reporter, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. However, he also knew that it was impossible for the reporter to delete the footage he had just taken, so he had to sit in the police car and sulk.

The helicopter in which Chaopin and Jessica were traveling quickly landed at the nearby San Antonio Airport, and then the two boarded Chaupin's private jet and left Texas.

Xiao Ping planned to send Jessica to New York first and ask her friends in the media to inquire about the situation, while he himself continued to Washington, D.C., to discuss the matter directly with officials from the Department of Agriculture.

While Xiao Ping was on the way, Davis and Johnson were also watching the news about Lilian's Ranch at the hotel's accommodation, and both of them didn't look good.

Neither Davis nor Johnson expected that this matter would make such a big fuss. Truth be told, they did make a bit of a fuss when dealing with reports about Lillian's ranch. But what they didn't expect was that this incident would attract so many reporters. The situation at Lillian's Ranch is now known almost throughout the country, and Davis and Johnson are feeling a lot of pressure.

If it is found that there are indeed illegal genetically modified plants in the pasture in the future, of course, there is no problem. If it turns out that Lilian's ranch is completely fine, even the USDA will be very embarrassed as long as the other party makes a fuss. As for Davis and Johnson, who bear the brunt of the attack, they will definitely be sacrificed by their superiors and thrown out to appease the anger of Lillian Ranch.

The more they thought about it, the more worried they became, and after discussing it for a while, Davis cautiously dialed a phone number. The phone was quickly connected, and a hoarse voice said with a slight unpleasantness: "Why are you calling me?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wales. Davis said cautiously: "Johnson and I have seen the news report about Lillian's ranch, and now the whole country knows about it, how did those reporters know about it? Could it be ......you?"

"You can't talk nonsense about unfounded things, Davis!" Before Davis could finish speaking, Wales on the other end of the phone interrupted him coldly: "Those reporters have always had a keen sense of smell, and the 'Holy Pot' is a well-known brand, and it is normal for them to pay more attention to it, and this matter has nothing to do with me at all!"

Although Davis didn't believe Wales's words, the other party didn't admit that he had no choice, so he had to retreat and say: "Mr. Wales, we have done everything you want us to do, but now this matter is so big, if nothing is found in Lilian's Ranch, Johnson and I will be miserable! I just want to confirm with you again, is there really something wrong with Lilian's Ranch? We are under a lot of pressure!"

Wales hesitated for a moment, then said categorically: "Don't worry, I also have reliable information, so I will do this." As long as we wait for the final test results, you and Wilson will become the stars of the Department of Agriculture, and not only will we not have a problem with promotions and salary increases, but we will also become my personal friends. For the sake of your future future, what is this pressure now?!" (To be continued......
