Chapter 338: Low-key and low-key
Ju An and Wang Fan returned home at almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and when they entered the house, they found that Marcos and Melina had also come over today, and the two old men were holding their grandsons and playing, Ju An said hello to the two of them, and carried their luggage to their bedroom upstairs.
When she went downstairs, Dinah asked, "Is everything done?" Wang Fan also came back."
"Hmm!" Ju An kissed Dinah: "Wang Fan is such an adult, and he was shocked when he encountered something, so I ran away in vain." After speaking, he walked to the sofa and sat down, his son saw Ju An giggling and opened his little hand to reach out to his father, Ju An took his son from Melina's lap, and looked at it carefully, this little eyebrow and small eyes are alive and well in the photo when he was a child, Dinah's shadow is rarely seen, and he praised it in his heart: This is my son.
kissed the two sons fiercely, put the child on his lap and asked Dinah, "Is Nini back, I'll pick it up if I don't come back!" ”。
Marcos said: "I'm back, we stopped by the kindergarten to pick us up when we came over, and we're still playing in the pool."
"Oh!" Juan nodded and asked Marcos, "Is everything okay on the farm?"
"It's all good!" Melina said: "I just want to come over and see if the matter in New York is over?" ”。
Ju An smiled and said, "It's not a big deal." After speaking, he handed his son to Melina's arms: "I'll go see Nini, don't play too long." After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the indoor pool, Dinah would not let Nini run to the outside pool alone to play, saying that it was too close to the lake.
Pushed open the door of the pool, and saw the little girl sitting on an air cushion floating on the water, wearing a diving goggle on her eyes, paddling the water with both hands, Wu Song also mixed a seat on the air cushion, Teddy stretched out a big head on the back against the air cushion, clockwork a few small ones are still playing on the edge of the pool, there are girls who can't see Hans and Jinbao two brothers, now it is estimated that which tree fork is lying on the outside.
Seeing Ju An, "Dad! It's back! The girl shouted and said to Teddy behind her, "Hurry up, Teddy, let's row over." After hearing this, Teddy pushed harder, and the speed of the air cushion increased significantly, knocking down a few inflatable toys such as ducklings and penguins along the way to the pool.
When the girl came out of the water, Ju An picked up the towel on the recliner next to her and helped wipe the water droplets on her head: "Go change clothes, I'm going to eat in a while." Looking at the pool with more than a dozen inflatable toys, Ju An said to Nini: "When the toys are finished, pick them up and put them in the pool."
"Ducklings, they love water! I'm going to stay inside," Nini said to Ju An seriously. touched Nini's head: "I know, go and change my clothes, my grandparents won't play with me for a while when they come, and I know that I play."
Nini giggled twice and ran into the locker room, Ju An waited for the Teddy to climb ashore, shook off the water and took a few animals to blow the hair, the warm wind blew on the body of the Teddy, making the little things a little sleepy, and after blowing the hair, he ran directly to the edge of the sofa and took a nap.
Nini sat on Marcos's lap and was telling Marcos the story of the kindergarten with a colorful voice, and Marcos asked, "How are you doing with the children in the kindergarten?" "Problems like unhappy living". Nini always said a lot of things in Ula Ula, and she began to digress after a few sentences.
After the family finished dinner, Dinah and Melina cleaned up in the kitchen, and Juan and his old father-in-law, Marcos, sat on the sofa and chatted.
Marcos said to Juan, "I heard your ranch is hiring new cowboys."
"Hmm!" Ju An nodded and said, "There is such a thing, but not this year, it should be next year!" ”。 Thinking about the extra 20,000 acres of land, Marcos must have known that it wasn't unusual to know that the ranch was going to recruit cowboys.
Marcos said with a smile: "A lot of cowboys in the town are eager to try, your salary here is already a little higher plus the year-end bonus, it's too high!" It's almost catching up with the income of a small business owner."
Ju An smiled and explained: "I didn't expect the ranch income to be so high, and at the beginning, I followed the net profit set by the cowboys to divide the dividends, I can't say whether it counts."
Marcos nodded after hearing this: "Then you have to pay attention in the future, what you did last year was a bit too ostentatious, you can change the way, now I hear the cowboys in the town talking that the salary of ordinary cowboys on your ranch is more than 100,000 US dollars a year, which is easy to cause dissatisfaction among other ranchers, and if you recruit people like this, the rest of the ranchers will have to increase their wages if they want to hire people, which is not good."
Juan listened to Marx's words, thought for a moment and said, "Well! I know, in the future, it will be divided into a quarter and a quarter, but this year it is estimated that it is still a lot, the cattle are more than doubled, the bonus is a little faster and five times, the profit of the white cow is too high, and the whole white cow will be higher in the future."
"It doesn't matter how many times you send it, you have to pay attention to mentioning it to the cowboys, let them pay attention to confidentiality, don't be like the end of last year, send a check directly, the next day a group of cowboys each waved a check for tens of thousands of dollars to the bank, and the direct transfer from the bank is also much more low-key, a check per person can really boost morale, but it is too ostentatious to be advisable" Marcos said to Juan.
"I know, this year I told the accountant that the dividends are transferred directly to the bank, and the cowboys also said don't talk about it everywhere" Ju An accepted the old father-in-law's opinion.
Marcos continued: "How many cowboys are the ranch plans to recruit next year? ”。
Ju An thought for a moment and said, "Fifteen or sixteen new cowboys, Lawrence and I mentioned it last time, that's probably the number."
"Don't make a big deal about recruiting cowboys this time, Lawrence and Thomas both know a lot of good cowboys, and you can also let the cowboys on the ranch see that they are all good cowboys who are ranch cowboys, who don't know a few, just let them contact them privately," Marcos suggested to Ju An.
The two chatted for a while, Thomas drove the car to Melina's house, Ju An watched his father-in-law's car drive out of his eyes and said to Dinah: "I have something to do to go to the ranch to discuss with Lawrence Thomas."
After hearing this, Dinah nodded: "Come back early!" ”。
"Hmm!" Juan kissed Dinah on the forehead, turned out of the house, got into the helicopter, and flew in the direction of the ranch.
When I arrived at the ranch's office, Thomas and Lawrence were there, and when I saw Ju An coming over, he smiled and said, "Ann! Why did you come so late today?"
Ju An pulled out a chair and sat down, put his hat on the table and said to the two: "I want to discuss something with you, Marcos just talked to me about the recruitment of cowboys on the ranch."
Thomas was stunned and said, "What's the matter?" ”。
"Marcos suggested that we recruit cowboys this time to keep a low profile and not go public, saying that you two know a lot of good cowboys, you can contact them, or the ranch cowboys can introduce them," Ju An said to the two.
After hearing this, Lawrence smiled and said: "Thomas and I are planning to do this, how can it be open recruitment, if this is public, I don't know how many cowboys will come, let's just find some cowboys who are familiar with the ranch and have good skills."
Ju An sighed, and the two old men and Marcos wanted to go together, and said with an excuse: "In addition, this year's dividends, I will no longer use checks, and I will make a direct bank transfer before Christmas, and tell the cowboys not to go around talking about it, after listening to Marcos's words, I seem to have become a public enemy of the rancher."
Thomas nodded after listening and said: "Let's go back and tell the cowboys, this year's bonuses go directly to the bank, and the cowboys in the province inquire about each other, but a check is more shocking, when I first got the check last year, I counted the few zeros in the back, and the cowboy has never taken so much salary in his life, and he didn't sleep well under the bedside next night, and he got up two or three times a night."
Ju An laughed when he heard Thomas's words, and Lawrence also nodded and said: "At that time, I also felt the same way, a check of tens of thousands of dollars, which could catch up with the total income of the previous three years, just holding it in my hand, I really couldn't believe my eyes."
Ju An quipped: "Then for your sleep today, let's change it to a bank painting, and take a few trips to see it at night!" If you want to see it, go to the bank ATM and count to zero, and I'll tell you about these two things."
Lawrence nodded and said, "We've arranged the hiring of cowboys, you don't have to worry!" ”。
"What is Ann worried about, it's not when we first arrived, this time I called two cowboys, mentioned the cowboys and agreed," Thomas said after thinking for a moment, and then sighed in a daze, probably thinking of being rejected by some cowboys at the beginning.
"How's Leonard's busy work? Has there been any movement these days? Juan asked.
Lawrence said, "The pond has been being dug for the past two days, and Professor Leonard is preparing a batch of grass seeds for final preparations."
Ju An nodded: "The pond is almost dug."
Lawrence said: "It will be completed the day after tomorrow, under the command of Leonard, find a relatively low-lying ground and start digging, and when I saw it yesterday, there was already water seeping."
"Okay, I'll go back when you're busy, I'll go over and see it myself tomorrow" Ju An stood up after hearing this, put on his hat and went out.
Thinking about the grass in the new pasture, Ju'an planned how to prevent the old man from discovering it, and moved some hands and feet to let the space grass grow, not only to control the speed of grass growth, so as not to be too terrifying, but also to make the old man unable to figure it out, which is a bit difficult.
Ju An thought for a long time before starting the helicopter and flying towards his home.
