Chapter 229: Alpine Pasture
Early the next morning, considering that he was going to go to the place called Alpine Ranch for a field trip, Li Anran got up and called the winery directly, asking Smith to contact Williams, who had originally made an appointment to meet in the afternoon, and directly explained that he was going to inspect the ranch, hoping that the other party could accompany him.
For such a request, Smith, who knows his boss's personality and temper well, will naturally not refuse. At that moment, I found out the phone call of my friend, and repeatedly emphasized on the phone that this time I can accompany someone to visit the ranch is a very good opportunity, and if I can show enough professional strength, I believe that I will be more sure to win this job.
During this time, because the job was gone, and the mortgage, car loan and living expenses were still unavoidable, Williams, who was having a little unpleasant quarrel with his wife, learned some of the Chinese boss's personality and work habits from his friend's mouth, and naturally did not want to miss such a good opportunity, so he immediately agreed.
Considering that his private jet was still parked at San Francisco's international airport, after receiving a positive answer, Li Anran directly asked that Williams to meet at San Francisco International Airport. Then, I finished my breakfast unhurriedly, and then drove towards the airport with Anne, who had become a cold and beautiful woman.
This is also because the original Antelope helicopter completely disappeared because of the so-called shipwreck. Otherwise, it would be so much trouble to get from Napa to San Francisco International Airport, and it wouldn't take much time to get there by plane. As for the car that drove to the airport, it was natural that someone would send it back when they turned around.
With beautiful women by your side. An hour-and-a-half-hour drive will naturally not seem boring. If it weren't for the tossing and turning of the night before, Anne, who was probably in a very good mood, would definitely not mind experiencing the wonderful taste of (car) (earthquake) with someone on the road.
As soon as the two arrived at the airport and parked their car in the airport's parking lot, they saw a man wearing a beige casual suit, which would not look too formal and would not make people feel too "unkempt".
"Hello, is this Mr. Kevin?" The man, who looked to be in his thirties, asked politely.
"Hello, I'm Kevin, you're Williams. I've seen the photos Smith sent. Nice to see you. Li Anran, who quickly matched the other party with the photo he received before, stretched out his hand with a smile and said.
Kevin. Li is a foreign name given to himself by Li Anran in order to follow the customs of the country. It was originally intended to be called Bruce. Li's, but this name is too famous. After taking it, it will inevitably be reminiscent of the big man. So I changed it anyway.
"I'm glad to meet you too. I'm Williams. Williams, who was worried that his friend's description was a little unreliable, saw that the other party could not only speak authentic American English, but also gave people a feeling of getting along very well. He said with a sigh of relief.
"This is Anne, my lawyer and partner, and this time she will be in charge of the formalities of buying the ranch." After shaking hands with the other party, he pointed to Anne beside him, and Li Anran introduced with a smile.
"Nice to meet you."
"Me too."
Zhilu Dao's itinerary for this day is relatively full, after the three of them exchanged pleasantries, Li Anran did not delay any longer, and directly took the two of them through the VIP channel, because they received the news of the trip in advance, Gulfstream g550 has made all the preparations. After the three of them got on the plane, they quickly took off smoothly on the runway.
Montana is a state in the northwestern United States, and the local economy is dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry, and the climate is relatively changeable.
The climate in the western part of the continental mountain line is generally mild, with higher precipitation. The average January temperature in the west is 7 degrees Celsius, while in the eastern part it is -10 degrees Celsius. The average temperature in July is 18 degrees in the west and 22 degrees in the east.
In winter, the Eastern Plains sometimes experience heavy snowstorms and strong winds from Canada, and the climate conditions are relatively harsh. The wettest time in the state is in spring and early summer, while the snowfall is in the mountains.
According to Anne's introduction, the external environment and internal facilities of this ranch are very good, the only drawback is that it is a little far away from the airport, and it takes more than an hour to drive.
And this problem is naturally not difficult to solve for ranchers who can buy such a large ranch. No, when Anran Lee's private jet landed at the airport in Lewistown, the rancher's helicopter was already waiting there.
To Li Anran's surprise, the rancher of the alpine ranch was actually a mixed child with Chinese blood. Moreover, this guy who has an industry worth more than 40 million US dollars is actually just a young man who is not even thirty years old.
When the helicopter flew to the ranch, the young rancher named Davis did not land directly. Instead, he took the opportunity to take Li Anran and others to take two circles around his ranch, so that the buyers could have a preliminary understanding this time.
After the helicopter landed at the ranch, the group was quickly taken to the rancher's villa.
Taking the opportunity of the break, Li Anran communicated well with the other party who could speak a little Chinese, but the accent was very Westernized. Only then did I know that this guy named Davis, his father was actually an authentic Chinese. And this ranch is also the one on the other side, who is said to have a legacy left by a legendary Chinese father.
When communicating, Li Anran also asked the other party why he wanted to sell this ranch. Davis, a rancher, said that although this ranch was his father's effort, it was not suitable for him at all. In addition, I had a very unpleasant relationship with my brothers and sisters because of inheritance issues, so I thought about selling the ranch and living in another place.
For other people's family affairs, Li Anran is not interested. After reading the corresponding documents and confirming that there are no legal problems with the property, he said that he wanted to go around the ranch again.
And such a request, Davis, who has already learned about someone's economic conditions through the law firm, will naturally not refuse. Considering that the ranch is relatively large and there are several places with good scenery, I chose horseback riding as a means of transportation.
Li Anran is no stranger to horseback riding. Although he has not undergone professional training in modern time and space, he has learned the skill of riding horses in the hands of Cheng Zhihei in Datang time and space, so there is no problem with this suggestion.
Williams, on the other hand, originally worked on a ranch, and was no stranger to horseback riding. As for Anne, although she can't ride a horse, it doesn't matter, she just needs to ride with Li Anran, and she is not in a hurry anyway.
After the group rode around the ranch for a while, Li Anran had to admit that the environment of this place was really good. There are mountains, waters, forests, grasslands, and a large lake, but the only fly in the ointment is that there are no hot springs.
Fortunately, the hot springs in Datang time and space can be soaked at any time, and this little flaw is nothing. Since he had already turned around the sky twice before, after looking at the main areas, Li Anran had already made a decision.
"Davis, if I pay the full amount in one go, how much cheaper can I get in terms of price?" Li Anran, who was driving the horses under him and rushing in the direction of return, asked.
"Kevin, this is more than 55,000 acres of ranch, and this price is really cheap." Davis, who drew a circle around with his hand holding the horsewhip, said, "However, if you can pay the full amount, forty-five million, this is my bottom line." ”
"Oh? Forty-five million is it? Facing this price, Li Anran smiled slightly, but did not make a counteroffer.
"Kevin, you have to know that this price is not just the ranch, I even leave the cattle, sheep, horses, and all the facilities that the ranch is raising now, and you can operate it directly after you take over." Seeing that the other party was silent, Davis was a little anxious. (To be continued......)
