"I remember when I was a child, I used to harvest the wheat with a sickle, and then when I got to the field, I used a walk-behind tractor to pull the mill to grind, and then I raised the field manually, and it was very depressing to raise the field, you had to wait for God to give the wind, otherwise you would not be able to lift the wheat husks away. And to bring wheat home from the field, it is also used in a rack cart, which is called a tiredness. Now it's different, the harvester can do it all at once, and the wheat grains that are taken back home can be stored as long as they are dried in the sun. And now almost every household in the countryside has a three-wheeled motorcycle, and the transportation industry is very convenient. ”

"Yes, it seems that the development of China has not been slow in recent years, and the situation in my imagination should not be able to keep up with the times, and it looks like it has to be changed." Liu Laohan listened to Gao Xi talk about the things in his hometown, and listened very seriously, all the things he knew about his hometown were all learned from the words and deeds of his father and mother, and he really had never seen it with his own eyes.

Gao Xi smiled and said: "Yes, but you are still a farmer in China who doesn't dare to think about it, so much land, put it in the country, then you have to be happy, not to mention anything else, it is estimated that the land requisition compensation alone is crazy, haha, according to our regulations there, one acre of land is about 100,000 yuan, and these fifty acres are more than 300 acres of land, that is more than 30 million, for a farmer, with so much money, it is really a lifetime without worrying about food and clothing." ”

"Hahaha, more than 30 million, that's not a good flower." Liu Laohan laughed.

"More than 30 million, if it is deposited in the bank, then you can enjoy it for a lifetime just by eating interest." Gao Kefeng swallowed his saliva and said.

"Look at your little interest, you will deposit 30 million in the bank?" Liu Peipei glanced at Gao Kefeng and said.

"Don't talk about it, if I have 30 million, I will also deposit it in the bank, and I will die of comfort just eating interest, who will still work." Gao Xi said with a smile.

"Brother, you're not talking nonsense. Look at you, after you have money, you went to the United States to buy a ranch, and also invested in a travel company, a resort and a supermarket, and you still say that you don't know how to use the money? Xi Haijuan said.

Gao Xi shook his head and said, "You're not right, I just started the ranch out of interest, and I didn't expect it to make much money." ”

"Okay, okay, you're a person who has no desires." Xi Haijuan smiled bitterly.

"Isn't that a monk?" Gao Kefeng scratched his head and said.

"Stinky boy, who do you say is a monk?" Gao Xi kicked Gao Kefeng's ass and scolded with a smile.

"How dare he say you, it's not just the monks who have no desires, the same goes for the immortals." Liu Peipei said with a smile.

"That's not right, the gods don't even have feelings. I'm still looking for a daughter-in-law. Gao Xi said hurriedly.

Hearing this, Xi Haijuan's face flushed slightly, she didn't know what she thought of, probably in her heart, she really liked Gao Xi, but she was just embarrassed to say it.

"Hey, this is a pumpkin, it's Halloween in a few months, and I look at TV like Americans get that jack-o'-lantern on Halloween." Pumpkin hats, it looks interesting, isn't it? "As I walked, I passed a pumpkin patch. The pumpkins here are all very good-grown, round shapes, and they are really suitable for pumpkin hats.

"That's right, these are pumpkins. It's really for Halloween, and someone will come here to buy it when the time comes. Liu Laohan said with a smile.

"That's a shame, my favorite is pumpkin. Pumpkin buns taste fluffy and delicious, and they are really fragrant. And you can also stir-fry vegetables with pumpkin, the taste of the fried is also very delicious, you can also make pumpkin pie and so on, and by the way, you can use pumpkin to cook porridge, this American can really spoil, good vegetables, waste. Gao Xi saw that the delicious food was wasted, and he felt that it was a waste, which probably had something to do with the hard life he had before, in those days, it was not easy to eat food, who dared to waste it.

"Brother Xi, just relax, if you worry about this, then you won't be tired to death, this Halloween pumpkin is okay, you haven't seen a carnival tomato, that's a waste." Gao Kefeng said with a smile.

"Well, that's what the fuck I'm doing, how many years have been Halloween in the United States. I cut down trees at Christmas, and I pick small ones, and if I really struggle with them, I'm going to have a nervous breakdown. By the way, Uncle Liu, you guys are also celebrating Halloween here, can I come over and have fun then? ”

Gao Xi doesn't like holidays, that's in the past, because he has no money to spend, and he wants to make money, but now it's different, the money is there, then now is the time to have fun, he really hasn't had Halloween, since he wants to live in the United States in the future, then these festivals in the United States, should still be lived, especially if it's interesting, there will be more.

Liu Laohan said: "Of course, although I have always liked Chinese culture, but the people around me have foreign festivals and Chinese festivals, and I don't want to be isolated, so I must live, if you want to come on Halloween, it will be very interesting." ”

"Are there a lot of people?"

Liu Laohan nodded and said: "Much, of course there are more, whenever the annual Halloween comes, it is very lively, Halloween sounds terrible, but in the United States, it is a big day for the whole family to celebrate, and for merchants, it is a time to engage in special goods." Today is the happiest day of the year for the children, as they can dress up as their favorite characters, walk the streets, and eat enough candy that their mother always hides. Our ranch here also prepares a variety of events. ”

Gao Kefeng also said: "On Halloween, when you walk on the road, there are almost few people who can see normal costumes, the city is doing Halloween activities, and our ranch here is also doing Halloween activities, basically every child will wear costume, and many adults will also dress up themselves according to the occasion." In the evenings, it is even more lively, and the church and the farm are full of people dressed in all kinds of fancy clothes. ”

"Sounds weird and interesting." Gao Xi touched his chin, and in his heart he already recognized this Halloween as a big cosplay show.

"October is also the month of pumpkin harvest, so Halloween and pumpkin are closely linked. Most families buy a pumpkin and carve it into a jack-o'-lantern. However, the legend has it that the jack-o'-lantern is because a man named Stingy-Jack invited the demon to drink one day, and because he had no money to pay the bill after drinking, he persuaded the demon to turn into a sixpence to pay for the drink, but Jack did not pay for it, but used a piece of silver paper to stop the demon so that it could not come out. Later, the devil promised Jack not to scare him for the whole year, and Jack let the devil out. The following year, the Halloween demon reappeared, promising not to harass Jack for another year, but before the year was over, Jack died. When he died, heaven did not accept him, because he was very stingy; Hell will not keep him, because he teases the devil. With nowhere to go, he had no choice but to keep walking, carrying a white radish, in which the devil placed charcoal fire to light the road and find a place to rest. Later, everyone found that pumpkin was better than white radish, so they continued to use pumpkin lanterns. Liu Laohan was interested, and even told Gao Xi a story.

"What's going on on the farm that day?" Gao Xi smiled and asked, "I'll see if I can call a few more friends over to have fun then." ”

Liu Laohan said with a smile: "In the past, it was basically a family activity, but now many schools will organize children to come to the farm, and almost all kindergartens in the United States will have pumpkin selection activities." This is a way for children to learn about fruits and vegetables and see what they look like in the field. They will also use some agricultural products to make a variety of toys for children to play with. You can make a pyramid out of straw or a small maze out of corn, and prepare some prizes for these little ones, and they will be very happy. ”

"Then we let the little ones and their parents get on the tractor on oversized wheels and walk around the farm to see the vegetables in the fields. The driver is also the docent, and we will pick some ripe fruits from the field, and last time it was carrots for those children to taste, right? ”

"Yes, yes, tomatoes this year?" Gao Kefeng asked.

"Besides, it's still a while before Halloween, so we'll have to design it well." When Liu Laohan mentioned these festivals, he seemed to be really excited.

After that, Liu Laohan took Gao Xi to visit the cornfield, and he sat on a helicopter to visit, this Liu Laohan actually flew a helicopter, which frightened Gao Xi and was also envious.

"You're old, this helicopter is all lost?"

"It's all a trivial matter, I'll fly the kind of plane that can spray pesticides, by the way, you've seen the 'Plane Story', it's the same as the plane in there, it's good." Liu Laohan said excitedly while piloting a helicopter to a large area of cornfield in China: "It's a pity that our family can't afford it, and the big guys in the neighborhood together pooled money to buy a plane like that, and when spraying pesticides, they sprayed the whole area." ”

"Listen to that, this plane is expensive, isn't it?" Gao Xi couldn't help but ask.

"Actually, let me tell you this, this plane is cheaper than a helicopter. It was probably less than $100,000 to buy it, but our family gave it up because they had no money after buying a helicopter. I don't use that thing very often anyway. By the way, the owner of the West Farm, your ranch is so big, haven't you ever thought about buying an airplane? Helicopters are a good choice, after all, being able to hover and do a lot of things is very annoying and convenient. Liu Laohan scratched his head and said a little embarrassed, probably because he felt that he had just said that he couldn't afford a plane and slapped himself in the face.

"I definitely have to buy it, but I haven't figured out what kind of helicopter to buy. Helicopters should be able to spray pesticides as well, right? Gossey asked.

"Of course you can, brother, I know this, we have a farmer named Cai Guoliang in China who spent 2.1 million yuan to buy a small agricultural helicopter for spraying pesticides. This helicopter is piloted by a hired professional pilot, and it can complete the plant protection application of more than 100 acres of farmland within 15 minutes, which is very powerful.
