Chapter Seventy-Three: White Mountain Rock
Lan Jiawei is now alone on the farm, his parents, wife, and children all live in the villa in San Francisco, and after returning home for a night's rest, he goes to the elves, and some things happen to do now.
The sale of all the fruits on the farm has come to an end, and the current Mill brand fruits will be sold like crazy as soon as they are put on the market, and the actual test shows that these fruits not only improve the taste of food, but also improve sleep and moisturize the skin. Due to the limited amount of fruit produced, it is only found in high-end restaurants and supermarkets near high-end residential areas, and if you don't get your hands fast enough, it will sell out quickly.
The last time the stables were made, some of the rocks belonging to the Gantt Mountains that jutted into the farm had been removed, but there were still a lot of protrusions there, not only affecting the use of the farm, but also turning around in a large circle from the gate to the manor, and it was bare and unsightly. Although it is only on the side of the house, it has always been a pimple in Lan Jiawei's heart.
At night, Lan Jiawei took all the elemental elves to the mountain rock, with the earth spirit as the main force, and the elves used their respective abilities, such as the fire spirit burned the rock red, and then the snow spirit performed a rain clearing technique, and the rock was directly broken by the effect of heat expansion and cold contraction.
Soon, after the rock area became parallel to the terrain of other farms, Lan Jiawei divided the empty area into two parts, one was used for a new garage, and it was also a super large garage built of stone by Tuling, which was built deep into the interior of the mountain, with a depth of 120 meters, a width of 110 meters, and a height of 15 meters, which could be called a parking lot.
Not far from the garage with a semi-circular gate is a large pool, and in the middle of the pool is a stone statue of an elemental spirit, which is connected to the groundwater and becomes a constantly circulating fountain, and the exit of the fountain is circled around the sculpture. All the rocks and earth spirits have turned white according to Lan Jiawei's requirements, which is very beautiful.
The wood spirit cooperated with the earth spirit to plant the bare mountain rock wall with plants such as creepers, morning glories, etc., and the snow spirit sprayed some moon spring water slightly, and soon the mountain wall became lush and green.
In the end, because of the disappearance of the huge convex rock, the stables, garages and other facilities can be connected, and the earth spirit paves a road to connect these places with small stones calcined by the fire spirit, and the snow spirit, wind spirit, wood spirit, etc. began to transform the environment of the original rock area, and trees and grasses began to plant and sprout; The wind spirits gather the dust and dump it in the woods; Snow spirits and fog spirits improve groundwater and spray plants.
When all the work was finished, Lan Jiawei watched with satisfaction as the original ochre-red and disgusting huge mountain rock turned into a huge white garage, statue, and stone path, and the opposite bank of the creek diagonally opposite the manor had become the style of a small square. Coupled with the green cliffs, it has the charm of a European manor.
"Master, I found that the magical civilization is really amazing, and it is not a small project to change it to a scientific and technological civilization", Xiao Zhi sighed.
"Ash, give the specific data of the garage door and order the remote control door to the store in Boise," said Lan Jiawei, looking at the miracle completed in one night.
Farmers and cowboys don't come here if they have nothing to do, so it won't be discovered until a long time later.
After entrusting the family to the two of them, Lan Jiawei took his private jet and flew to San Francisco, which was quite a short flight for a while, and it took more than an hour to arrive.
After returning home, Lan Jiawei hugged his son and played for a while, and now he has found a maid at home, a Filipino woman, who specializes in taking care of Xiaowen and cleaning when the master is not there.
"Sandy, my parents are out? Why isn't Madame here? Lan Jiawei asked, looking at the woman in her 30s
"Young master, the old man and the old lady went to Chinatown to play, and the lady was at the salon at noon and didn't come back"
"Alright, I see", Lan Jiawei handed his son to Sandy and entered the study
Ash has basically negotiated a $100 million acquisition of 15 percent of Legendary Pictures. It's a good deal for a company worth more than $1 billion.
Lan Jiawei is now just choosing a movie as his first battle as a producer, and with the help of Ash, he is most sure of a R Star Wars realistic movie called "Time and Space Dream".
But this movie is a standard science fiction film on Earth, and there are a lot of love elements in the movie, in the case of Lan Jiawei, it is much better than Hollywood's third-rate scripts, as long as you find a few actors to make up for it, Ash can easily be combined with the original movie.
In the afternoon, his parents and wife returned home, and at dinner, Lan Jiawei asked, "Our San Francisco home seems to be smaller, do you want to buy more?" ”
Lan Dad and Lan Ma disagreed, thinking that the current house was already very big, so don't waste it anymore. Chiyo doesn't matter, maybe there's a good one, it's okay to adjust it, listen to her husband.
Ash communicated with Lan Jiawei at this time: "Master, there is a manor-style villa with an area of 1.2 acres, that is, more than 4,000 square meters, in Foster City that is being listed, do you need to contact them?" ”
Chiyo already felt it. Eating food and looking at her husband with a deep smile, Lan Jiawei smiled at her, "Ash, let's get in touch, it's better to be a little faster, we're going to Los Angeles in a few days"
"Got it, master", Lan Jiawei watched the information provided by Ash about this manor with Chiyo in his room at night, and the two entered the manor with 3 floors and an area of 610 square meters on each floor as if they were there, plus the outbuildings, which are larger than the houses on the farm, it seems that the original owner is a nouveau riche, although the outside is European-style, but the decoration inside, both of them don't like it very much.
But after buying, you can adjust it according to your own wishes, and the couple is satisfied that it is not very far from the villa they live in now, you can go to downtown San Francisco, you can go to Stanford University, facing south, facing the sea, and there is a bridge near the sea to connect to the other side of San Francisco Bay, the location is excellent.
The next day, Ash contacted the seller, and the other party opened his mouth to offer $35 million, and Ash did not hesitate to bargain to $22 million.
The day before he left the seller alone for a few days, and was about to go to Los Angeles with his wife, the seller finally relented because he was in dire need of cash and agreed to sell the estate for $22 million.
After completing the formalities, Lan Jiawei and Chiyo came to the manor to say their thoughts on the interior, and Xiaozhi quickly expressed it with virtual images, until the two were satisfied, connected to the computer, printed out the drawings, and found a decoration company to construct, which is estimated to be completed in less than 1 month.
Lan Ma and Lan Dad didn't want to go to Los Angeles, so they took their grandson on a flight back to the farm, and Lan Jiawei arranged for someone from Boisimir's management company to pick them up.
After arriving in Los Angeles, a few days before Yuan Yi's wedding, Lan Jiawei drove a Bugatti and his wife to visit Yuan Yi's residence first. The artist bought 5 acres of land in the suburbs of Los Angeles, a beautiful place with mountains and rivers, and designed and built a villa with a different and special style.
Seeing Yuan Yi, who seemed to have stepped out of some kind of magic barrier and became cheerful, Lan Jiawei smiled slightly and gave a friend-like hug. When I went in, I found that he still had a few classmates and friends from China, and after introducing each other, several of them cast some strange glances at Lan Jiawei, which made him a little inexplicable.
Only Zheng Qin noticed his expression from the whispered frolic with Chiyo, and smiled "poof", "Jiawei, the theme of Ah Yi's battle with the other party this year is ancient Chinese military generals, you can go to Ah Yi's studio and take a look."
Yuan Yi seemed a little embarrassed, took Lan Jiawei and his wife to his studio, and opened the cover covering a painting, Chiyo exclaimed, but Lan Jiawei was a black line. It turns out that this is a work based on Lan Jiawei's riding and archery, the face of the military general is vaguely Lan Jiawei, but he is wearing the golden helmet and gold armor of the ancient general, and the horse he is riding is also a taller sweat and blood horse, the tension of the whole work is full, and the military general is calm and unhurried, and the enemy is like a living thing in the invisible contempt.
When Chiyo was surprised that Yuan Yi showed the arrogance in her husband's bones at a glance, several of Yuan Yi's friends also followed, wanting to see what was going on with this farmer who listened to Yuan Yi and Zheng Qin's boasting.
Zhang Cheng, an iron buddy of one of the painters, was more thick-skinned, "Mr. Lan, we are all itching when you look at this painting, can you have this honor to see your archery skills?" ”
Looking at the eyes of Zheng Qin and Yuan Yi, who represented everyone's wishes, and the encouraging smile of his wife Chiyo, Lan Jiawei replied: "Okay, wait a minute, I'll go to the car to get a bow and arrow, does Ah Yi have a target here?" ”
Zheng Qin replied first: "Yes, Ah Yi and I have nothing to practice marksmanship, not far away, we still have a few horses."
Lan Jiawei pretended to go to the trunk to get something, but in fact he took out the "Phantom" recurve bow brought out by the FBI, and when he returned to the house, everyone felt strange to see such a small thing, although he was still carrying an arrow bag.
"Hehe" smiled, Lan Jiawei shook the recurve bow, and the whole bow opened regularly like a blooming rose, and soon showed a hideous prototype.
"Wow", Chiyo also saw this bow for the first time, and was surprised by everyone. Zhang Cheng didn't understand how powerful such a light bow was, and he had to go over with Lan Jiawei, and it took the strength of feeding to pull out a little bit. Let everyone be more surprised and look forward to it.
In order to paint horses, Yuan Yi bought a lot of horses of various breeds and raised them in his own small pasture, Lan Jiawei chose a docile Quarter mare for Chiyo, and he chose a tall Akhal-Teke horse, that is, a sweaty BMW, for the painting close to Yuan Yi.
