Chapter 416: Research Institute
When he woke up in the morning, Ju An lifted the blanket covering his stomach, stretched his waist, and saw that Wang Fan on the other bed had been wrapped in a blanket and rolled up, still asleep, walking on the side of Wang Fan's bed and kicking: "Hurry up, let's go back in the morning."
"Hmm!" Wang Fan stretched his head out of the blanket, then hummed at Ju An, and retracted his brain into the blanket: "Let me sleep for a while, I changed the bed and had a little insomnia last night."
Ju An shook his head, brushed his teeth on the edge of the pool in the room, wiped his face, walked to the door and pushed the door open, it was still a little cold here in the morning, this is the mouth workers have begun to get busy, digging the ground, several excavators are also rumbling to work, two cowboys have arrived at the edge of the flock, riding a four-wheel drive motorcycle to drive the sheep outside. The roar of the machine in front of me was mixed with the mooing of the sheep mixed with the barking of the shepherd dogs, a busy and lively scene.
Walked outside and stretched, followed the people he met to say hello, Ju An ran to the pond where he put water, looked at the nearby plants, the plants that had not been gnawed did not change much, the plants that had been gnawed to expose the taproots and side roots had begun to close, and the piece that had been gnawed off had slowly shrunk and had a faint green color, and it seemed that it would not be long before the stems and leaves could grow.
Juan was crouching on the ground looking at the plants, and Leonard walked over and crouched down next to Juan: "When this piece is green, it should grow a stem." The old man used his hand to play with the dirt next to the plant that had been gnawed off by the sheep, and explained to Ju An. After speaking, he asked, "Are you ready to leave today?" ”。
Nodding, Ju An looked up and looked around: "Well, I've finished reading here, I'm going to go back to California in the morning, Dazha, I'll take the plane back to Montana tomorrow morning, what other requirements can you make here."
The old man waved his hand and said to Ju An: "There are no requirements, and if there are requirements, it will not be possible to do it in a while, or wait for the ranch house to be built, and I will move the things in the laboratory."
"Are you going to stay here permanently? Then you won't study the grass over there in Montana after that? Ju An looked at the old man and said strangely.
Leonard waved his hand: "It's not a permanent residence, just move the laboratory back when the thick heel ferns here are almost long, the research of forage is honestly really clueless" The old man sighed after speaking.
Ju An smiled: "It's not tiring to move things back and forth, just buy a truck with a large trailer, the kind that can directly drag the test equipment around, so it is easy to carry." Ju An was talking about the kind of thing that was dragged like a big truck like a container, and it was easier for the old man to run back and forth in the laboratory.
Then he thought about it and said to Leonard: "Next year, no! Or later this year, you and Lyman will quickly set up the shelves of the animal and plant research company, and now I don't have much investment in a year, and 10 million dollars a year can still be guaranteed, Lyman is responsible for new livestock breeds, and you are responsible for the cultivation of pasture and other plants, let's take a smaller step first, and then have more money to invest in." Ju An had this idea in his mind before, and he was going to tinker with some new breeds, and the cattle breed should see if the gray cattle were better than those of other cattle breeds, and as for the pasture, it was incidental.
Old man Leonard nodded happily when he heard this: "In the past few years, 10 million a year has been a lot, so you can invite a few more animal husbandry experts to come over and everyone can study it."
Ju An smiled and quipped: "10 million is not a salary budget, it is a budget for everyone's salary plus research funds for a year, if it is not enough, I will not allocate any more funds, and this company, you don't expect to be listed or the like" The money in the listing circle is not within the scope of Ju'an's consideration, if it is listed, then a lot of hands will reach over, and it will be too much of a constraint for himself, Ju An is really not interested.
Leonard shook his head and said with a smile: "The annual funding of 10 million US dollars is enough for the research of cattle plants, this research is not only based on investment, but also on perseverance, a new species will take more than ten years of cultivation, and the investment package for the first year does not include the investment in construction."
Ju An listened to it and thought about it, smiled and quipped: "How much money can the building have, don't think about high-rise buildings, just a dozen bungalows."
"That's enough, then I'll discuss with Lyman where to set up the institute and how to divide the funds," Leonard said to Ju An.
Ju An thought for a while: "I suggest that it be located in Lewistown, where it is close to the Xishui River Ranch after all, the land in the town is cheaper, and the cattle and pasture are relatively close, it is too inconvenient to set it up in other places, if it is located in Lewistown, it will be changed to a two-story concrete building."
Leonard said with a smile: "Of course it's in Lewistown, but I'm thinking about building a research institute in the town or buying a piece of land close to a ranch to build a research institute, after all, ten million dollars is enough to buy a piece of wasteland of dozens of acres."
"You think about this yourself, and then discuss it with the accountant" Ju An patted his big leg and stood up, breathing a sigh of relief, as long as the accountant looks at it and sets a company charter, then there is nothing to worry about, just afraid that if there is no charter, it will be troublesome to touch your head and think about it.
Seeing Ju An standing up, Old Man Leonard also stood up: "Of course, this is a newly established company that also has company rules and regulations, so it will be much busier next year, and I can also invite two more biologists to come over looking at the funds."
"Ten million!" Ju An raised a finger and shook it in front of the old man, and reminded with a smile: "There is only this number, there is no more, but the research funds for you and Lyman are counted."
Leonard pressed Ju'an's finger down: "I know, more than 10 million, your 10 million is more than the entire animal husbandry investment in my university, don't worry, remember what you said about 10 million a year."
Ju An nodded: "Words count." 10 million a year is not only able to study new breeds of livestock, but also gets a shining shield, and the more professors, the more shields, isn't it? The money was not unjustly spent.
The two of them were talking, and the assistant recruited by the old man Leonard came over, Ju An listened to Wang Fan yesterday, and at this time he paid a little attention to it, the girl who was facing Ju An with her butt was really good, with a big pink face, and followed a few assistants to say hello, and the old man took a few people to pounce on the plant again.
Ju An returned to the house, Wang Fan had already sat on the edge of the bed, saw Wang Fan in a daze, and asked, "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and brush your teeth and finish breakfast, let's go back."
Wang Fan twisted his shoulders: "Let me wake up, I just got up and urged, like a ghost, what a hurry, five hours of road, a day to climb and climb." After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the pool.
Seeing Wang Fan lazily swaying towards the edge of the pool as if he had no head, Ju An shook his head and simply pushed open the door of the house and filled in the five internal organs temple first.
After eating breakfast in the simple canteen, a little bit of something, breakfast is really not in line with the appetite of Ju'an, eat a little and go out, just out of the canteen, I saw a few pickup trucks lined up towards the simple house, some dragged ladders behind, some of the car still sat a few people, it is estimated that it is the workers who came to build the house.
Ju An raised his legs, and Rand also came out of the house at this time, walked to Ju An's side and said to Ju An: "This is the first batch of workers to build the dormitory of the ranch." As soon as the words fell, the car had already stopped a few meters away.
As soon as the car stopped, an old Mo wearing a yellow-colored helmet jumped out of the car, and then beckoned to the people in the car: "Guys, come down, start work, start work."
After speaking, he walked to Rand's side and stretched out his hand: "Rand, my people are here, let's start work today."
Rand shook hands with the old Mo, and then stretched out his hand to introduce: "Ben! Our b. u, Ann".
Lao Mo stretched out his hand to Ju An: "Thank you, sir, choose my company, rest assured that our work is absolutely good, if you need anything in the future, you can contact me directly, and you will know the quality this time." After speaking, he handed Ju An a business card.
Ju An shook his hand, then took the business card, glanced at it and put it in his pocket: "Okay." Many Mexicans here are doing construction, the price is about 10% lower than that of the white company, and the work is also good.
After Ju An said a few words, he took the workers to the location of the dormitory, spread out the drawings on a pile of wood, and followed a few workers to say something.
Rand looked at Ju An and looked at these old Mo and said with a smile: "Their work is very good, many of the houses in Kingman were built by them, and they will go back this morning?" ”。
Ju An nodded: "I understand everything that should be understood, and you can check the rest of the things." Watching Leonard wander around the grass all day long, he doesn't have the energy to care about other things, and this quality thing has to look at Rand, the ranch manager.
Rand nodded and said to Ju An: "Don't worry, I'll watch it every day."
"Then you can go about your business, and when my friend is ready, we will go," Juan said to Rand. Leave these things to Landjuan and rest assured, the construction team is bound by the contract, and will not give Lande money, fooling the quality, and it is impossible for Rand to collect money to let the construction team do a tofu slag project, and managing such a ranch can be done until it can't be done, compared to this position, the construction team can't send much even if it sends money, it still risks going to jail, and the cost is too high.
It's not like when Ju'an Middle School was in Ju'an, the construction team stuffed some money to the principal, and the teaching building dared to fool you, and it only took three years to crack a big crack, and in the end it was okay to hit it twice.
Wang Fan walked over to Ju An at this time and said, "Let's go, let's go to Jinman for breakfast, there is nothing to eat except eggs this morning." Like Ju'an, Wang Fan is also a meatless and unhappy lord.
After listening to Wang Fan's words, Ju An nodded, and the two of them cleaned up a little, got into the Mercedes-Benz car, and drove towards Jinman. (To be continued)
