"Billy, what's the matter with you?"

The second uncle saw Billy's appearance, and was just beaten by the mad dog Danny, and at this time the cousin was a little embarrassed, and the corner of his eye was also broken.

"Going out and being fought? You say you'......"

The second uncle, Andy, obviously felt very helpless about this son.

"Alright, don't talk about it."

His wife Victoria waited for the second uncle to take a look, obviously very dissatisfied with the second uncle's attitude towards Billy, and the second uncle's Chinese-style patriarchal style still made Li Yifan feel a little familiar.

It seems that although most of this family are foreign faces, in fact, some traditional Chinese things have not been thrown away, at least the configuration of strict father and mother is still there.

"Go upstairs and take a shower, then come down, it's time to eat."

The second aunt hurriedly pushed Billy upstairs, both of them are hard-tempered, if the second uncle is saying a few words, he may have to quarrel on the spot, if it is usual, it doesn't matter, but today there are no guests.

"You're going to get used to him......"

The second uncle's helpless expression made Li Yifan feel a little funny, except for this foreign face, the second uncle's style is the same as a typical Chinese-style strict father.

The dinner was very richly prepared, with some unconventional and improved Chinese dishes, as well as Western dishes such as steak, roast turkey, fried potatoes, and salad, but for the meat eater Li Yifan, such a dinner was just what he was appetizing.

Sitting together as a family, who said that it was not a happy one, but it was an inexplicable factor connected by blood in the bones. still let everyone get acquainted with each other quickly.

The eldest uncle, Andrew, was a city councillor in Vancouver. Very sociable. quickly dissolved the kind of stranger life when they met, and has always been the leader of the topic.

They inquired about Li Yifan's situation in China, and they were very happy when they heard that Li Yifan's family's industry is now booming.

They also said that when they had the opportunity, they would go to Bincheng together, on the one hand, to return to their hometowns to worship their ancestors, and on the other hand, to get closer to their families.

The atmosphere of this family is very cohesive. The taste of the big family is very strong, although they are blood relatives, but after all, the two families have never met since they were children, and it can even be said that they are two shijie people at all.

But the sincerity and enthusiasm shown by others still made Li Yifan feel very moved, this is a family, and this kind of family affection, even in China, is rare in such a family.

The dinner was very pleasant, and the family could be said to be happy. Andrew, who has never been to the mainland, and Andy, both of them are very curious about the situation in the mainland. In particular, her cousin Melissa kept asking questions, some questions about their family's situation in China, and after that, more about some domestic customs and economic development.

And Li Yifan also answered one by one, seeing Li Yifan answering the domestic economic situation so calmly, which made Andy and Andrew have to look at the genius child in the mouth of this sister Anna.

He is not only fluent in English, but also speaks the way for economic development in the general environment, and the most important thing is that he is only a teenager, not a young man in his twenties who graduated from college.

A teenager, when facing elders who have never met, it is inevitable that he will shrink a little, but this is not seen in Li Yifan at all, he is not only not afraid of life, but also can talk and joke with the elders, no wonder Anna said that this child was born for a big scene, and he is indeed an excellent child.

After dinner, the family began to watch the video brought by Li Yifan from China in the big living room of Uncle Andy's house.

In recent years, VCD has been very popular in China, but this thing has not flowed into the world, and DVD is still a high-end product that has just been hyped, and it has not been listed in a large area, so Uncle Andy's home still uses a video recorder.

It just so happened that Li Yifan also brought a videotape, and most of the content of this videotape was filmed in their family's ancestral house, as well as the situation of his parents, brothers and sisters and other family members, which can be regarded as an introduction to their family.

Then there is the operation of their hotel, and they are all overjoyed to see Andrew, and at the same time, they also have an understanding of the general situation of this line of relatives in China, and they have some impressions of the cousin in the mainland.

The idea of this video tape was put forward by Li Yifan, and when his parents decided not to go abroad this summer, he thought of it, after all, after coming out, the relatives on the other side had not seen their parents and their own family situation, so he felt that he should still let the other party know about it like a way.

After watching the videotape, Andrew's family said goodbye, and the second uncle hurriedly arranged for Li Yifan to go upstairs to sleep, after all, after more than ten hours of airplanes, they had to reverse jet lag, and they were afraid that Li Yifan would be tired.

Early the next morning, Li Yifan could be said to be refreshed when he got up, pushed open the window, it was a good time for the sun to warm outside, the greening of Vancouver was very good, and a circle of towering trees was planted around the yard of Uncle Andy's house, and there were some well-tended ornamental gardens below, and the birds and flowers felt very comfortable.

After washing up in the room, Li Yifan went downstairs, and there was no one in the living room.

"Yifan, here."

The voice of the second uncle came from the open kitchen not far from the living room, Li Yifan walked over, the second aunt Victoria was making breakfast in front of the stove, and the second uncle was sitting on the edge of the dining table not far away, holding a newspaper.

The second uncle has a law firm, which is very famous here in Vancouver, and it was originally only a Chinese business, but later became more and more famous, and he also began to do business with foreigners.

Now his law firm has expanded to more than 50 lawyers, and with the addition of assistants and interns, his law firm can probably have more than 100 people, nearly 200 people.

In the western part of Canada, there are several large law firms, especially in British Columbia and Metro Vancouver.

"I slept well yesterday."

The second uncle put down the newspaper in his hand and asked Li Yifan.

"Well, that's good."

Li Yifan replied, it happened that the second aunt had already made breakfast and counted it for the two of them.

A typical Western-style breakfast, no one has a glass of milk, and a fried egg toast, and Li Yifan also gets a high treatment, that is, a large plate of fried bacon.

"Young people, it's time to grow your body, eat more."

The second uncle smiled and said to Li Yifan, Li Yifan was not polite, and after saying xiexie, he immediately started.

"By the way, you came this time, and I heard from your aunt Anna that your family plans to bring in some cows and beef cattle from here?"

Uncle Andy asked as he took a sip of milk.

"Yes, the standard of living in China has been improving very rapidly recently, but the domestic pasture resources are very scarce, so it has also caused a lack of milk sources, and my father and I are very optimistic about this business, so we want to make some investment in animal husbandry."

"Oh! So, are you going to buy some cows to go back? Do you want to do it yourself? ”

"Well, there is almost such an idea, my father recently plans to build a farm in Luoniu Town, not far from Bincheng, not only dairy cows, but also beef cattle are planned to be raised together, and we plan to engage in an industrial chain of breeding, deep processing, and listing operation."

"Oh? Tell me about it? ”

When Uncle Andy heard Li Yifan's statement, he couldn't help but become interested, and while eating his toast, he asked Li Yifan to talk about his thoughts.

Li Yifan didn't hide it, so he told Uncle Andy about his family's plan to breed dairy cows, and at the same time breed beef cattle, and also planned to open a restaurant chain.

Uncle Andy nodded frequently when he heard it, and he attached more importance to his nephew, no wonder Anna said that this child was a genius, such a clear thinking, eloquent, and a description of a business investment, which was really a bit unusual for a child of his age.

You must know that he is only a teenage high school student, not a college graduate in his twenties.

"Well, you're here for the right time."

After listening to Li Yifan's narration, Uncle Andy made an understatement, but it scratched Li Yifan's itch, and he even stopped the fork in his hand.

"Oh? Weishenme said so? ”

"Now Canada's economic situation is very bad, you also know that after the 98 financial crisis, in 99 this financial crisis spread to Russia, and then Russia's Putin actually forcibly postponed the repayment of the national debt, which led to the financial shock on Wall Street, since last year, the financial crisis has hit the US economy hard, and the United States is one of Canada's most important export destinations, and now the United States has not come out of the economic crisis, do you say that Canada's economic situation can be good now?"

Uncle Andy obviously didn't treat Li Yifan as an ordinary high school student, and directly talked to him about these macroeconomics, and Li Yifan can roughly understand these things, after all, he has also done training in this area in later generations, and he still has a little understanding of macroeconomics.

In the original history, this period was indeed the main period of economic difficulties for Canada, with the US dollar continuing to depreciate and the total economic volume shrinking, which caused difficulties in Canada's export industry.

Originally, Canada was a livestock powerhouse, but a few years ago, the government vigorously supported the oil sands project, and the animal husbandry industry was not very concerned.

And this time. The COM economy is very hot, and most wealthy people concentrate their funds on the NASDAQ, which is hot in the United States, which naturally causes a shortage of cash flow, which also has a certain impact on Canada's livestock economy. (To be continued.) )
