Chapter 126: A Chilly Vacation
Missouri is actually not very far from Texas, and it is about a six- or seven-hour drive from Abilene to Cape Gerrardo County in southeast Missouri; This distance is almost the distance from Abilene to Houston, the southernmost part of Texas.
It's just that this distance is also a little far, although Wei Da has thought about driving there, so that he can bring more things and prepare more completely. But think about it, forget it, this really makes people more tired and tired; Going to the farm is intended for leisure and relaxation, and there is no need for a high-speed trip. This is not Wei Da and Angela, but with his parents and little York.
Wei Da feels that he is really motivated now, it would be good if there was a private jet, whether it is Abilene or Cape Girardo, there is an airport, so it is more convenient, and it is more convenient to travel and vacation in the future. But now it's just a matter of thinking, because private jets are still very stressful for Wei Da, and he can't afford to pay so much money.
Wei Da felt that it was really necessary to buy an RV, when he had an RV, it was very convenient for the whole family to go on a picnic and travel, so that the six or seven hours of driving would not make people feel tired. But now it's definitely too late, there are a lot of RVs in the United States, but basically the current car is relatively a little bit difficult; Although it is certainly no problem to pay a little more money, it will take some time to slightly modify the car after buying it and come back, plus running-in and the like.
Even now, an RV is definitely going to be bought, but definitely not now. This time the trip was on a civil plane. In fact, now you need to take a plane to go a little far; However, Wei Da has also made up his mind, and private jets are also one of his targets. Now there is no shadow of the sea view villa. A private yacht is also in the plan, and Weida feels like a billionaire. But there is still a lack of money, at least not enough; Of course, a large part of the reason here is because Wei Da, a billionaire, is calculated in RMB, and if it is US dollars, sea view villas and private yachts are still very reliable.
"Mom, you really don't have to bring so many things, we just go out on vacation for two days." Seeing his mother sorting out her luggage in large and small bags, Wei Da had a headache, and it was estimated that she would have to check in if she had more things.
"Bring an umbrella and dry food, you young people still don't understand this truth. I know you're rich. But that's not how money is used. Some things are prepared to be brought, and they don't take much space in the box, and if you really encounter something, you will really panic without this thing, and you may not be able to buy it with money. Mom glanced at Wei Da, this is an overhair with life experience.
"Your mother is right, these things are not heavy, and it is easy to bring them over." Dad obviously also thinks that Wei Da is still a little younger, or that some of the young people now are a little so-so, and it is a good thing to prepare more things. It is also very necessary. "It's just a few changes of clothes, I'll see if you can see if anything has left behind, hurry up and pack it up." Don't be in a hurry if you prepare in advance, otherwise you won't be in a hurry to get up tomorrow morning, and you will be lost. ”
Wei Da lowered his eyebrows and went to pack his luggage in advance, he has been living under such reminders since high school; I lived on campus in high school. The university was in another city, and even a few years ago when I studied abroad, every time my parents started to remind Wei Da one or two days in advance, not to lose his luggage.
The prince and the crown prince followed Wei Da to Angela's house. When traveling as a family, these two lynx are naturally the ones who need to find reliable food to eat; They are also familiar with Angela's family. So let's go and borrow for a few days. In fact, Weida still wants to take them to the farm in Missouri, but it is inconvenient to take pets on the plane. Especially if it is a beast like a lynx, the procedures are too cumbersome; Wait until you have an RV or private jet to take them on a trip, and now they can only express all kinds of envy and hatred.
Brush the Prince of Dark Horse, discuss it with him, and follow Chiji in the horse farm for a few days; As for the two ostriches, the cowboys of the ranch can take care of them, but they don't need to take care of them deliberately, and their life in the ranch is really pleasant. Basically, things at home are arranged, plus it's not far away, so there's nothing to worry about.
"Dude, I'm coming!" Angela's car just stopped, and the energetic little York jumped down and shouted, dragging his little suitcase, little York was very excited, this was his first real vacation!
Weida smiled and looked at Angela, they could both see little York's expectations; But these two people also have a little dark psychology, they feel that such a little bad taste, although the current little York is looking forward to this trip, but it is estimated that the little guy must be a little disappointed. It's just that that's not the most important thing, and while it may not be the new and exciting holiday that little York was looking forward to, it was certainly going to be a fun one.
Although there is a slight language barrier, little York still chatted very happily with Wei Da's parents, they met, and they also liked Wei Da's parents very much, and they were also quite satisfied with Wei Da's brother-in-law; Although it is a little naughty, even overly lively, Weida's parents think that boys are better skinned, and such boys are more courageous.
"Hello, Mr. Wei." By the time we arrived in Cape Girardo County, Gordon, the farm's steward, was already driving to the airport.
"This is my girlfriend Angela and her brother York, this is my parents, I'm sorry they don't speak English very well." Weida smiled and shook Gordon's hand, Gordon's ability is still good; It's just that compared to Simon Sr., the relationship between Gordon and Weida is still relatively average, and it may take more time to cooperate to make Weida trust Gordon more.
"We have cleared almost forty acres of land, and we have completely broken and loosened the soil according to your requirements. Some weeds around the lake have also been cleared, and 300 crucian carp and some bream have been stocked, which is a reasonable number, which can clean up some algae in the lake very well, and can also ensure that the fish in the lake are not harmed. Gordon, who was driving the car, was also briefly introducing some information about the farm.
"That's good, I'm happy with your work. I would say that you have passed my test, if you have indeed done so. In my ranch cowboys have a part of the dividends, and here on the farm you can also get a 4% dividend, and your weekly salary is according to the market conditions. Wei Da nodded with satisfaction, it is rare for Gordon and the staff to be able to do these things well, and Wei Da also made a clear statement.
Gordon is very happy, this job is kept, and there is no need to worry about being a son of heaven and a courtier; The job was very important to him, and the $1,300 a week salary was really important to him, and those bonuses might also be a little bit bigger, which naturally made Gordon even happier. Although many people are not interested in working under the hands of the Chinese, Gordon does not care, he needs money, and when facing a salary, he will not be as poor as those stubborn guys, in fact, there is no need to be tough.
Little York's eyes widened, the barbecue parties were gone, the playgrounds were gone, the grand stadiums, the great games were gone, and even now there were not even a few people!
Little York felt that he had been completely deceived, this was not the trip and vacation he was looking forward to, originally he thought that the vacation of a rich man like Weida would definitely be very exciting, and there must be a very lively activity. But now he regretted it a little, for the car drove all the way to the wilderness, although it seemed to be full of grass, although there were still some brooks; But this wasn't a trip or vacation in York, and if it was, he really might as well stay in hot Texas and play football with some of the guys in town!
Although little York was deflated, Weida's parents were satisfied; Not to mention the dense woods I saw before, the grass on these low hills is very satisfying, and there are streams meandering through the farms, which is indeed very beautiful.
"Stay here for two days, the holiday villa here has just been built, it will be completed by the end of the year, and you will have a good house next year." When I got to the staff room here, it was actually really ordinary; It's almost guaranteed to have a small living room, kitchen and room, and bathroom, which is also good.
"This house is good, much better than our old bungalow." Mom and Dad didn't care, because the life of the family was very average before, and the house here was really no worse than the old house; As for little York, he regretted it even more, not to mention that he didn't have a high-end hotel suite on his vacation, not even half of the family's house.
"Wait a minute, let's go around a little bit, there's a small lake in front of us, and there's a boat. The ground in front of me has also been excavated, so I'll go down and check it out, and then we'll be planting a lawn here. Take a break today, buy a car tomorrow and come back, we are also going to live here, and it is convenient to have a car. By the way, some barbecue grills and the like, ready for a barbecue party! Wei Da smiled, although the conditions are very average now, but it doesn't matter, because money can make ghosts grind, in fact, this vacation will definitely not be cold, because Wei Da is also prepared.
Although it seems that the living conditions are very average now, Weida will not be stingy where the money should be studied, otherwise this is not a vacation, it is asking for hardship! (To be continued......)
