Chapter 316: Retired Apache
Time is long, and half a month has passed, the branches are sprouting, the grass is tender and green, and the world that has been depressed for several months is once again stained with dazzling colors.
For Sun River Ranch, the grass also sprouts, but the changes are more in the poplar shrubs.
The gray-brown branches, the young leaves are beginning to appear, or goose yellow or tender green, little by little, the whole scenery is outlined more vividly and concretely.
In the blue sky, the white clouds are fluttering, the warm sun is shining, in the pasture, the cows and sheep flick their tails lightly, leisurely grazing, cowboys or riding on horseback, or walking on the slope, holding grass stalks, wearing felt hats, leisurely.
On the contrary, the cattle dogs could not be idle, and dutifully ran around the periphery of the herd, guarding against possible dangers.
Under the sun, the stream is roaring, flowing like in winter, but it gives people the feeling that it has changed from the dullness of the past and has become much lighter.
The coolness, the clarity, the whiteness shining under the spring sun, seems to be able to cleanse the soul and gently wash away the haze brought by the severe winter cold!
As spring progresses, the warmth grows.
Every day, the sweater and thick denim jacket make everyone who has lost the bulging cotton clothes feel much lighter, and the skillful and flexible movements, like no restraints, have the illusion of great strength.
How can you not go on an outing in spring?
Deep in the ranch, Augusta Street, Walker Farm, Julie's ranch
Qin Yi, a guy who knows how to enjoy, has taken Susa and Kolo more than once to go back and forth in various places.
Talking about love, enjoying the sunshine, just like that happy little couple, sweet and sweet, happy!
Of course, Angel, who is a professional light bulb. Naturally, I will go with me on weekends, but the little girl plays by herself, so how can I care about the adults taking time!
In this leisurely day, Suzie's vegetable garden work has also been on track, and now the vegetables have been planted. Yesterday, Susie also excitedly called to report that the vegetables had sprouted!
Not big, not small, a happy event!
Ryan is in charge of the ranch, and the daily operation is decent, with no surprises and no surprises.
That's good, herding cattle every day, where is the surprise. It can't rain in the sky and fall to the ground like a cow!
There are no accidents, and the plain and warm life is the biggest surprise.
Of course, there is one more important thing.
The 1,000 cattle that had previously reached the slaughter standard had been snapped up during this time. And the major hotels and restaurants have booked one after another, wanting to get the purchase quota of Qin's beef cattle in advance!
During this time. Liuhuo sales are still in full swing, but Qin's beef cattle are not weak in high-end restaurants.
The impeccable quality, under the knife of the top chef, has been transformed into a variety of cuisines, which has been greatly praised by senior consumers, and has been promoted to the signature dishes of major restaurants in a very short time. If the average rich person wants to eat a meal, he has to book it half a month in advance!
Of course, if you are a real dignitary or a high-ranking person, it is naturally a matter of saying hello a day or two in advance!
Qin Yi could guess these things. But he didn't pay any attention, he just had to sell his beef, and as for how the buyer operated, it didn't matter much to him.
However, Colo pouted Susa and wanted to open a high-end restaurant, specializing in beef and vegetables from the ranch, which should be very popular.
Recently, both of them have been planning this thing.
In addition, beef offal such as beef heart and liver left behind in the slaughterhouse is still useful for the pasture.
Naturally, it's not used to cook, so many offal, you can't eat it every day!
In the local area, offal is generally used to feed cattle dogs, if this is not used up, it will be processed into feed, Lao Mei is basically no one to eat, or that sentence: can't cook!
Qin Yi also thinks that it is very good to feed cattle dogs with offal, which not only saves the trouble of cooking for cattle dogs all day long, but also provides convenience for the handling of cattle offal.
As a result, the offal from the slaughterhouse is also directly roasted and sent to the ranch as a meal for cattle dogs.
In this way, it also happens to solve the problem of feeding the small animals at home, and there is no need for Qin Yi's family to cook for the small animals every day.
Of course, the two omnivorous bears, like McGee and Teddy, still have to be given some vegetables and fruits every day.
Bai Xue, the little rabbit, don't worry, because there is Lai Pi, Lai Pi is a good husband, and he chooses fresh vegetables every morning and brings them back to Bai Xue to eat!
Chloe and Susa often joke about Rippy, saying that she is Snowy's servant, not her husband!
In the past half a month, Diana and Hans have taken the Bone Crusher on a trip to Texas, and in this large state with a developed horse racing industry, they once again won a highly gold championship, which made the supporters of the Bone Crusher excited.
When the news came, Qin Yi's family was naturally overjoyed.
But it is said that the Venus, after a big circle, has arrived in Los Angeles for many days, and is currently docked at a private yacht marina in Santa Monica, and the annual docking and maintenance costs cost Qin Yi hundreds of thousands!
And the captain John, after arranging the Venus, asked the stupid bear to take people to stay behind the guards, and he personally went to talk about the helicopter.
In the past few days, there have been results, but the model of the helicopter made Qin Yi a little stunned!
Maybe it's because of this guy's background as a special soldier, which makes him have a great affection for and pursuit of various military equipment.
This time, Qin Yi asked him to pay attention to the helicopter, and John hit the idea on the military helicopter!
That's right, the helicopter has a way, but this guy, with his previous military connections, got three "decommissioned" Apache in a legal way!
Although the armament on the fuselage has been removed, the performance of the Apache military helicopter itself has not been compromised in the slightest.
If you buy cannons or even rockets through legal channels, you can build a war helicopter!
However, there are also a lot of troubles in this, such as legal licenses, supervision, etc., and even a helicopter that is not handled well and has weapons installed, and even Qin's security company, will be blacklisted by the old American government!
Therefore, after Qin Yi got the news, he solemnly instructed John to strictly prohibit him from equipping the helicopter with weapons!
At least not now!
Naturally, John also knew the stakes, and he didn't plan to equip him with weapons.
The toothless Apache was recommended to Qin Yi, just because of its flight, protection, and night combat performance, and it could be used as a means of transport for the rapid response team in case there was a need for the security team to appear.
Looking at the video sent by John, Qin Yi naturally liked the handsome Apache in it, so after letting John deal with the legal procedures, he immediately transferred it and officially pocketed the three "retired" Apaches!
This transaction cost Qin Yi a total of $27 million, that is to say, an Apache with an attack weapon device dismantled would cost $9 million!
This price is a little expensive, but it is normal, after all, people take the risk to report Apache "retirement", how can they do it without taking some benefits!
However, with someone in John's system, it is not much more expensive, and the US Army also costs $13.5 million to purchase an Apache.
Those guys in the army who make oil and water, change hands on an Apache with deducted the loss fee, and there is no single-barreled chain gun and external rocket launcher, and they will only make tens of millions!
After taking these three Apaches, Qin Yi asked John to apply for a legal license, and equipped two of them to Qin's security company, and the remaining one drove directly to the ranch.
He has already made a plan, usually stay in the ranch to use, this kind of cool military helicopter, he still has itchy hands!
When going out to sea, dock on the yacht's tarmac and stand by.
Maybe it's even cooler to fly a helicopter over the sea! (To be continued......)
