Verse 101: Karl is surrounded
"Erha. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Zhao Jiyang turned his head and patted his little chest: "You scared me to death." ”
"Whew." Erha clung to his tail and ran to Ye Mu for comfort.
Ye Mu touched its head: "Go to the study and sit, let's grind coffee and drink." ”
"Hmm." Zhao Jiyang nodded, hugged the husky's head, and dragged it to the study. Ye Mu went downstairs and brought a robot up, this robot has been upgraded to energy, and the reserve of electricity is abundant.
Upstairs, Zhao Jiyang opened the windows on both sides of the study and lit a candle on the table.
It's only afternoon, but it's too dark. The raindrops the size of beans crashed against the windows, rattling, and the rain falling from the eaves seemed to be open and flowing faucets.
Ye Mu put the robot on the table, opened the lid on the back, exposed the power plug, and plugged in the roaster. Then he brought the raw Kona coffee beans, shoveled some with a small spatula and put them in the roaster, and began to shake them by hand.
The coffee beans were roasted to some burnt aroma, Ye Mu turned off the power, took out the coffee beans and poured them into the grinder: "Do you want fine coffee or coarse coffee." ”
"I want fine coffee and it tastes warm." Zhao Jiyang held Xiaohua in both hands, smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Ye Mu with unblinking eyes.
"Is it pretty?"
"Not only good-looking but also handsome. Mom said that men who can cook are the most handsome, and you can not only cook but also make coffee......"
Outside the window, the storm and thunder and lightning were blowing, and the room was full of warmth.
"Woo ......"
There was another thunderclap, Erha shook his body in fright, climbed onto the sofa, and drilled his head into Ye Mu's arms.
"Silly dog." Ye Mu gently rubbed the husky's head and looked out the window, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, falling on the window like a curtain of water
Ye Mu didn't know that a part of the barley in the field was ready to be harvested. The barley harvest in mid-August was based on the farm's previous experience, and this year it was sown by itself, and the work was completed more than ten days ahead of schedule.
At Hank's house, he sat in the doorway in a raincoat, looking at the black oppressive clouds overhead, his brows furrowed.
This year is a rare drought, although the barley in the fields is not very high, but the use of new machinery and equipment, the whole process of sowing is monitored by computers, the utilization rate of the land has been greatly improved, and the harvest should be the same as last year, maybe slightly higher. But this sudden storm ......
Barley is a cereal crop with a shorter growth cycle, 90 to 100 days. The barley planted at the end of April has now reached the yellow ripening stage, photosynthesis has stopped, and the nutrients in the wheat kernels have ceased to increase. When the farm was still in Stephen's hands, the planting was delayed until May due to outsourcing, and the harvest was mid-to-late August.
Hank rubbed his temples as news came from the Met Bureau that this heavy rain could last three to five days. Three to five days, and a few more days for the fields to dry......
The wind seemed to be a little stronger, blowing the barley whirring. If the straw is poured, it will not only reduce the yield, but it will also be quite troublesome to harvest, and the delay of a few days now will make the harvest period stressful.
The next day, when the rain was a little lighter, Hank summoned all the personnel of the Farming Department and the manager of the Security Department, Johnson, to the warehouse to discuss the barley harvest. Hank had written a plan for the barley harvest, which had been made into a form and distributed to everyone. There are fifteen harvesters on the farm, three of which are new super-strong deer harvesters, and the other twelve are old-fashioned harvesters, and it takes fifteen people to start the harvesters. There are also people who drive tractors to transport the harvested grain......
Here, it's a good time to go to bed in the rain. Ye Mu woke up very early, opened his eyes, and stared at Zhao Jiyang.
'The moon is still on the wilderness, and your figure is stretched longer and longer, until the sound of horses' hooves is heard in the distance......
Ye Mu's phone on the bedside table suddenly rang: "Hey, what's the matter." ”
It was Karl who called, and he was a little anxious, and said, "You know Roosevelt?" ”
"Roosevelt the rancher?"
"Yes, that's him. I'm outside his ranch...... He brought a bunch of cowboys to block me, can you come over for a moment? ”
"Now ......" Ye Mu looked at the rain outside the window: "Okay, I'll come right away." ”
Hanging up the phone, Zhao Jiyang raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Ye Mu kissed her lips and said, "I don't know, go over and take a look." You're at home, and I'll be back in the afternoon at the latest. ”
"What conflict did Carl say...... Will there be danger, Montana is full of guns, you have to be careful. ”
"Don't worry, there won't be any danger, I'll take Ron and Frank with me." Ye Mu turned over and got up, and after a simple wash, he drove to the equipment warehouse. Hank and they were having a meeting here, Ron and Frank were also there, Ye Mu called them and said, "Come out with me." ”
Ron and Frank saw that Ye Mu was in a hurry, and they didn't ask, they just got into Ye Mu's pickup truck, and waited for the car to leave the farm before they spoke: "What's the matter, I see that you are very anxious." ”
"Roosevelt's matter, he brought a group of cowboys to surround the owners and employees of Baihua Real Estate. Unfortunately, I am the second largest shareholder of Baihua Real Estate, and I happen to know him, so I have to go over and have a look. Ye Mu handed Ron and Frank a cigarette.
"You're going to buy his ranch?" Ron lit his cigarette and continued, "This is killing him." The Alendt Ranch has been passed down through generations of the Roosevelt family and is a source of pride for Roosevelt. If you want to take over his pasture, he will do it desperately. ”
Ye Mu pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Roosevelt, he borrowed from the bank?" ”
"Probably so. Not every landowner is as wealthy as you. I'll call and inquire. Ron said and took out the phone, called several times in a row, and no one answered: "Oh my God, what a goddamn guy." ”
If Roosevelt mortgaged the title deed of the Arendt Ranch to the bank for a loan, it would be really difficult to deal with it. The bank is not a charity, and once the mortgage contract expires and the debt cannot be paid, it is a sure thing that the Alendt Ranch will change hands.
Ron was calling Roosevelt and Frank was calling Thomson, but no one answered.
Ye Mu also called over and asked, "What is the conflict between you and Roosevelt?" ”
"I don't know, it's still inexplicable."
"You don't know? Unlikely! ”
"Okay, I said. I don't know who sent the false news to the ranchers on the grasslands that this year's agricultural subsidies were reduced because we had bought off government officials to buy the land. Early this morning, my staff and I came to Minres Ranch to discuss the transfer of the ranch, but Roosevelt and a group of cowboys blocked the road. Oh my god, I've called the police, but the damn cops are still on the way......" Carl cried out weakly.
