"Hey, Jiang, you're finally here." Looking at Jiang Hai who came over, Old George and Sersi both stood up at the first time and took the initiative to greet them, as for the others, they also stood up at the first time, even some gray-haired old men.

In particular, it can be seen that to what extent has Jiang Hai's reputation in the town reached?

"Sit down, sit down, don't be so polite." Seeing that everyone stood up to greet him, Jiang Hai also smiled, and then said hello to old George and Sersi, and immediately beckoned everyone to sit down, old George's wife had already prepared a chair next to him, and took one for Jiang Hai again, so that he could join these people, which also made Jiang Hai a little flattered.

"Jiang, let me introduce you to all of you." Seeing everyone sit down, Old George also smiled and said to Jiang Hai.

After all, Jiang Hai is here, except for him, the others are not particularly familiar, oh, Sersi is okay.

"This is Hodge Selcy, I think you should know him too, this stinky boy, but he didn't sell us less of your parts, haha, this is Kirton Harris, and the rancher, and the Straw Hat Ranch to the east of you is his." Listening to Old George's words, Jiang Hai also shook hands with Kirton Harris, who was sitting there.

Kirton Harris is a slightly old-fashioned-looking white man, in his fifties this year, and there is no smile on his face, but when he shook hands with Jiang Hai, he deliberately squeezed out a smile, although it is better than crying and can't see where it goes, but after all, this is also a kind of kindness.

Kirton Harris was the largest estate owner here before Jiang Hai came, and of course, this so-called big, those people in the West, like Texas, like Montana and stuff, that's the super mini ranch.

His ranch has a total of 2,700 acres, and the pastoral area of Jiang Hai's manor is 9,200 acres, which is much smaller than Jiang Hai's pastoral area, but here, his manor is already a big guy, raising a total of 10,000 cattle, which is indeed not small.

However, the cattle he raises mainly eat feed, not grazing, and he does not have so much grass to eat.

"This is Sakri Eddie, and she's a rancher." After introducing Kirton Harris, George Sr. introduced another rancher, and this Shackry Eddie was much smaller than Kirton Harris's ranch.

His ranch is only 200 acres in size, and he raises very few beef cattle, basically all of which are eaten by himself, and he mainly raises dairy cows, raising a total of 500 dairy cows, which is the largest milk supplier in the town.

"This is Carey Clark, also a rancher, but it's farther away from you." Then George Sr. introduced a white man, this one named Carey Clark, in fact, he is a rancher, or a manor owner, because his ranch is not too big, only more than 150 acres, and he does not raise too many cattle, but he raises a lot of sheep, and grows a lot of vegetables, and vegetables are more expensive than meat in the United States, which is not a very rare thing, so it is naturally extremely normal to grow vegetables and sell them.

After introducing three white ranchers, George Sr. introduced three more, two blacks and one white.

One of the two black men is named Jay Matthew, who also runs a racecourse, he is half of George's apprentice, he used to work in George's horse farm, and then went out to become independent, but he often comes back to buy horses, and the horses he sells are mainly for places other than Winthrop, after all, this is old George's territory.

There is also a man named Jermaine Lonald, this person is a second-hand car dealer, a very fat black man, with a smile on his face all the time, he knows that it is impossible to buy a second-hand car with Jiang Hai's assets, but Jiang Hai's car is not used, can it be sold to him, so Jiang Hai is also a potential customer.

The last white man, Buzz Bono, was the owner of the town's dairy, and he received the milk mainly from cow keepers like Sack Eddy, processed it, and sold it to the town, or to Boston or something like that.

Before Jiang Hai's manor bought cows, he also bought his milk, and the quality was still very good.

Of course, compared with the milk that Jiang Hai drinks now, it is worse, after all, cows now eat more than just grass.

After introducing each other, everyone sat down again, and then old George began to talk about the topic that had not been finished before.

Jiang Hai listened to it for a while, to be honest, after listening to it for five minutes, he couldn't listen to it anymore, because old George was talking about most of the policies related to them, but it had nothing to do with Jiang Hai.

For example, how many cents has dropped from ordinary beef, how much more expensive is it to buy pasture, how much is it expensive to buy seeds, all those Wall Street vampires should go to hell and so on, and some American policies and so on.

For example, it is becoming more and more difficult to get a ranch loan now, and you can apply for 50,000 or 100,000 yuan in the past, but now it is troublesome to even 10,000 yuan.

They are now thinking about whether to go to the front of the Boston town government to go to a sit-in, protest or something, and put pressure on the government.

To be honest, these things have nothing to do with Jiang Hai, one is that he doesn't buy grass, and the grass in his manor will not be eaten up no matter how he eats it.

The second is that he doesn't care about the price of beef, because his beef is rushing to ask for it, who dares to lower the price for him?

Third, the subsidy and support of the policy, he does not need a subsidy, his subsidy is a little preferential when it comes to taxes.

Applying for a loan? Is Jiang Hai using it? So these things, although they are closely related to everyone here, have nothing to do with Jiang Hai, so after listening to them here for half an hour, Jiang Hai forcibly endured his sleepiness, and left by urinating.

Out of the horse farm's house, Jiang Hai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and after going to get a bottle of Coke again, he found a corner, sat there with a chair, looked at the busy people in front of him, and drank the Coke in his hand.

"Hey, handsome guy, can you get to know each other?" But at this time, suddenly a girl came over with a bottle of beer, looked at Jiang Hai and said with a smile, hearing her words, Jiang Hai also glanced at her, this girl should be a college student, about twenty years old, is a white person, with brown-red hair, and her figure is quite plump, after all, she is still a college student, and the control of her body is not so good, but it reveals a youthful atmosphere.

At this time, she was looking at Jiang Hai curiously with a pair of big eyes, and Jiang Hai smiled at her brown eyes.

"Of course, Jiang Hai." Standing up, Jiang Hai stretched out his hand towards the girl, and the girl also deliberately shook Jiang Hai's hand.

"My name is Kelly, Kelly Sauron, and I know you, the master of the Dragon Manor." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the girl shook Jiang Hai's hand with a smile, then took a chair from the side and put it next to Jiang Hai, and said with a smile.

"Wow, I look like I'm pretty famous." After taking a sip of Coke, Jiang Hai said with a smile.

"Of course, you're the man who holds Winthrop's lifeblood, haha." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the girl named Kelly also laughed, it seemed that Jiang Hai's 'speech' was quite successful that night.

"Are you Winthrop too?" Shaking his head, Jiang Hai actually didn't want to be too stiff with the townspeople, but sometimes, these stiff people don't want to beat them well, they themselves won't know that it hurts, smiled, Jiang Hai changed the topic very wisely, looked at Kelly and asked, he is really not familiar with Winthrop.

"Of course, our family must have lived in Winthrop for decades, after all, since my grandfather's generation, I have lived here, all the way to me." Hearing what Jiang Hai said, Kelly said to Jiang Hai with a smile.

"Wow, that's really a long life, looking at your age, you should still be in college." Hearing Kelly's words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but admire, and then asked her.

"Yes, Boston University's Department of Ocean Engineering, but I'm a senior this year, I'm preparing my graduation thesis, and the credits have been repaired, so it's not difficult to write a thesis, but it's not easy to find a job." Shrugging helplessly, Kelly whispered.

Hearing this, Jiang Hai was also very wise not to take it down, just touched his nose and smiled, could he say something? He helped her get a job? Don't be funny, Jiang Hai doesn't want anything to happen to her, of course, if it's gratuitous, he's quite happy.

"I've heard that you didn't come to these meetings before, so why did you come today?" Hearing that Jiang Hai didn't follow his words, this Kelly didn't care, chuckled lightly, and changed the topic.

"Mayor Wallis said that he wanted me to communicate more with the townspeople and integrate into the collective as soon as possible." Shrugging his shoulders, Jiang Hai said helplessly, although this is a good thing, but judging from the current situation, it doesn't seem to be too easy.

"It's a good idea for Americans to party, but you should mingle with these people in addition to partying." Looking at Jiang Hai, Kelly here thought for a moment and said to Jiang Hai seriously.

"Mingling?" Hearing her words, Jiang Hai was a little puzzled, how could he get together? He didn't even know anyone.

"In this world, the easiest place to have friendship is in the barracks and schools, of course, it is impossible for you to be a soldier or a student, but the battlefield in peacetime, that is, in the arena, do you know what sports?" Looking at Jiang Hai's puzzled look, Kelly also smiled and said to Jiang Hai, hearing Kelly's words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but sigh.

"I can play basketball." After thinking about it, I still played basketball very well, abusing professional players!

"Basketball? It might work, but I don't know too well, what I do know, the best sports to make friends are baseball and football. Rubbing his hair lightly, it seems that basketball in the United States is indeed born by his stepmother, and he is not welcome.

However, Jiang Hai can't play baseball and football, which is also a problem...... (To be continued.) )
