Chapter 189: To the United States

Li Han was very satisfied with the house in Baibury, and immediately decided to buy it, so he called Joseph to come and look at the contract, and then signed, paid the bill, and found a company to decorate. The last item is in charge of Anthony, and just when he was looking at the contract, Anthony called and said in an excited tone: "Boss, the Nobel Prize in Medicine nomination has been obtained." ”

He had already been nominated for the annual medical award before he went to Thailand, and now he had been nominated for the Nobel Prize, Li Han whistled excitedly and almost jumped. Although both are very influential awards in the medical field, for the layman, almost no one knows about the annual medical award, and the popularity cannot be compared with the Nobel Prize.

If he can win the Nobel Prize, his reputation will be able to rise to a higher level, no longer limited to the United Kingdom, but people will know him everywhere in the world, which will be very beneficial to the exhibition of clinics and companies, and to the status of Chinese medicine in the world. Taking a step back, even if he doesn't win the award, being nominated shows his ability.

Everyone didn't hear what Anthony was saying on the other side of the phone, and they didn't understand why Li Han was suddenly so excited, Lydia asked curiously, "Han, what's wrong?" ”

Li Han took his girlfriend into his arms fiercely, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, dear, from today onwards, you will have a boyfriend who has been nominated for the Nobel Prize." ”

Lydia was stunned and cheered. Of course, she knew that Li Han was attacking the Nobel Prize, but she hadn't moved for the past few months, and she thought it was no longer a show, so she didn't have to mention it. was afraid of making him uncomfortable, but who knew that he would be nominated unknowingly. She stretched out her arms around her boyfriend's neck, kissed him a few times on the lips, and exclaimed, "Great, cold, great, congratulations!" You're probably the youngest Nobel Prize nominee, right? ”

Li Han smiled and shook his head: "I don't know in previous years, but this year's Nobel Peace Prize has a 15-year-old girl." ”

"15 years old?" Lydia asked, surprised, "What did she do?" ”

Li Han also heard Anthony mention it just now, and he didn't have time to understand the situation yet. He couldn't tell. That's all Lydia does. That's someone she doesn't know, and the important thing is, of course, her boyfriend, who was also nominated in front of her. She thought for a moment and said, "How about we go for a drink together?" It's a celebration of buying a house, and you're nominated. She smiled and straightened Li Han's collar. The real celebration is when you win the Nobel Prize. When the time comes, I'm going to give you a big gift. ”

Getting nominated is naturally the result of Anthony's operation. But this is far from the end, and there is still a lot of grinding to get these two awards. Fortunately, Anthony could only work secretly before. Let the judging committee take note of Li Han's papers and achievements, and now you can directly exert yourself on the members of the judging committee, and use a means within the rules to get them to agree with Li Han's achievements. In any case, this year, the whole world is paying attention to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Li Han has found a cure for it, as long as there is no such thing as war, there will be nothing more than this to attract the attention of the judges.

Although Anthony's main responsibility is interpersonal relations, the boss arranged a renovation job for him, so he has to find time to do it, and his job is a personal assistant, not a company assistant.

Li Han threw all the chores to his assistant and took Lydia to San Luis Obispo, California, USA, to see his 15oo-acre farm. Qi An'an came over on a special trip as early as when the farm first arrived, found someone to farm, and repaired the farm hut so that Li Han could live comfortably when he came over for vacation.

Their plan was to rent a car in Los Angeles and drive directly to San Luis Obispo, a road trip that is popular in the United States, and the journey was not too long, and they were not in a hurry, so they stayed overnight in a motel that was often seen in American dramas, and arrived at their own farm the next morning.

There are three workers on the farm, one American, one Mexican, and one Chinese, all three of whom are in their forties, and the work is not too tiring, because American farms basically use machines from sowing to harvesting, and only some cotton, tomatoes and other crops that are not suitable for harvesting will hire a large number of short-term workers to pick.

There are many farms and ranches in the western United States, and there are many cowboys, but there are not many young Americans who are willing to work as cowboys, because they think the cowboy job is too hard and the wages are not high, and the main labor here is middle-aged people in their forties and fifties and immigrants from other countries. Locals in the United States dislike the work as tiring and the wages are too low, and on the other hand, they feel that immigrants will rob Americans of jobs.

Along the way, more than half of the farms on both sides of the highway are planted with grapes, and the climate and soil of the whole of California are ideal for growing winemaking grapes, and San Luis Obispo is the third largest wine-growing county in California. However, Li Han's farm did not grow grapes, because he didn't know how to do it, and the time was tight, so he didn't bother to invite professionals to manage it for a while, so he chose to plant wheat, which was relatively worry-free.

The farm hut was safely cleaned up well, the house looks very old, it is all wooden, this is popular here, beautiful, convenient, just pay attention to fire prevention work.

The car passed through a wooden farm gate and drove down a small cement road for another two minutes before stopping in front of a log cabin. The white-walled and gray-tiled cabins are shaded by a few trees and red maples, making you feel like you're in a fairy tale. On the left is a viewing platform of twenty or thirty square meters, on which are several rattan chairs and a small square table, and an oven. On the other side is a large greenhouse, which can grow a lot of vegetables, and it is no problem for at least a dozen people to eat.

The house is on a grassy area of several hundred square meters, and there is a small balcony at the back, with a pair of rattan deck chairs and a small rattan table. Two hundred meters to the southwest corner of the house was a small lake about two or three acres in size, and a wooden pier extended from it, on which a small wooden boat was tied. The water of the lake is sparkling and crystal clear, and from time to time an unknown waterfowl skim the surface of the water and pick up a small fish. There are also birds that are probably water ducks floating on the water. In the distance, a small stream runs through the farm, ensuring that the crops are watered, without which the irrigation facilities alone would not have cost much money.

"Good place," exclaimed Lydia, "to come and fish while you stay here." ”

Li Han nodded, next time get some lotus roots, chicken heads, water chestnuts and other things to plant in it, and in the summer, lotus leaves will grow, and then flowers, rowing a boat to pick lotus seeds in the lake and touch water chestnuts to eat, no matter how happy it is.

A few hundred meters to the southeast of the house are large garages, stables, barns, and workers' houses, and it is impossible to see how large they are from a distance. "Let's stay over there and see how the house is first, we're going to live tonight." Li Han said and pushed open the wooden door.

The cottage has two floors, the first and second floors have a total of four bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms, and the other half is the first floor with a communal toilet that cannot be bathed. A large living room, a dining room and a large kitchen with a small dining table. The kitchen is semi-open, which may need to be modified if you stay for a long time, but they don't necessarily come once a year, so it's perfectly fine.

The interior decoration has the rugged style of the American countryside, and the arrangement is meticulous and not cluttered. It seems that every corner is full of things and well organized. Although the windows are not particularly large, there are two or three windows on each wall, and each room is well-lit and bright, which makes Li Han very satisfied.

The original name of this farm was Huaien Farm, probably the name of the previous generation of farmers, and of course Li Han had to change the name of the farm. He scratched his head and said, "I really don't know how to name it, you can help me come up with an idea...... I'm going to plant a lot of lotus flowers in that little lake, why don't you have something to do with this? ”

"What's that called?" Lydia thought for a moment, "Lotus Lake Farm? ”

Li Han was not very satisfied with this name, but he couldn't think of a better name, so he could only settle for it.

"The furniture is very complete, but it can be directly occupied." Li Han said, "Qi An'an has also bought daily necessities and other things, I asked Qi An'an yesterday to arrange for someone to come over to clean up, do you want to take a shower first?" ”

Lydia nodded and went up to the second floor, where the master bedroom was located.

Li Han took this time to meet with the three hired workers, and after saying a few words of encouragement, he said with a smile: "How about inviting you to dinner in the evening?" Any of you who know how to get around the city, I need to go buy some groceries and come back. ”

The old lady stood up - his name is Bob, and he is the one in charge of the three people - and replied: "Boss, yesterday Mr. Qi had already asked someone to buy vegetables and put them in the refrigerator, including beef, seafood, flour, milk, etc., from nearby pastures, and as for vegetables, we have a vegetable field on our farm, and we grow a lot of tomatoes, cauliflower, and onions. ”

So Li Han let them go to work, and went to the kitchen to work and prepare lunch.

After lunch, the two took a nap beautifully, and in the afternoon, they took out the fishing rod from the utility room and carried a small stool to the small dock by the lake. Li Han also carried a big parasol, and at the end of June, he sat directly under the sun for a few hours in the afternoon, which was the rhythm of looking for death.

There are no big fish in the lake, just carp, crucian carp, trout and the like, and the big ones are no more than two catties. There were two Westerners among the guests in the evening, so Li Han simply threw the carp and crucian carp back into the lake, leaving only one large trout to be grilled whole fish.

The fish needed for dinner was caught, Li Han simply put down the fishing rod, he now has a lot of crayfish in the lake, Americans seem to love to eat this, and what crayfish festival, I just don't know if the Mexican named Francisco eats it, Liancheng don't worry, this is an immigrant generation, it is unlikely that he will not eat crayfish.
