Li Anran, who handed over the bargaining work to Annie, finally won the alpine ranch completely at a price of 40 million. And in the process of counter-offering, Williams actually made some efforts to point out many problems with the ranch.

Li Anran was very satisfied with this price, and soon with the help of Anne, he looked at the contract for the purchase of alpine ranch one by one, and after making sure that there would be no problems in it, he signed his name.

After all the formalities were completed, the day passed.

What made Li Anran shake his head was that after getting the transfer check for 40 million and confirming that there was no problem, Davis, as the original rancher, was unwilling to stay even one more day, just packed his personal belongings and flew directly into the plane.

Finally, this person is not too unreliable, before leaving, he remembered to get to know the employees who rely on the ranch to eat with Li Anran, and announced the news that under his own request, although the ranch has changed hands, it will not lay off employees.

For these cowboys, Li Anran does not have the idea of replacing them all. Anyway, this place will only be used as a large-scale breeding base in the future, and the key species improvement "technique" will still be retained on the farm on Yingzhou No. 2 Island.

It's just that Li Anran was a little surprised that not long after completing this transaction, he actually received a call from Garcia, an executive of American Express Bank who had received him, and he had to go to San Francisco by himself.

I officially hired Williams as an alpine ranch, no. It should be the director who has been renamed the Runaway Ranch. As for the original cowboys, they all work under each other's hands.

In order to appease these cowboys, Li Anran also deliberately introduced Williams out of the gang and said that everyone's salary would rise by 10 percent. Although this increase is not high, it is enough to make everyone happy.

After spending the night in a five-star hotel in Lewistown, Lee arrived at the American Express branch in San Francisco on his private jet early the next morning.

After greeting that Garcia and getting to the point, Li Anran found out that the other party called him over, because he had spent hundreds of millions of dollars in less than a year, so. Obtained an invitation qualification called the Centurion Black Gold Credit Card.

According to the other party's explanation. Launched in 1999 by American Express, the Centurion Black Gold Card is recognized as a high-end credit card in the world, and as of 2012, it is only issued by invitation in 31 markets around the world.

And the cardholder who has this "king of cards". Enjoy top-notch privileges, customized services and unrivalled global benefits. These include all-day "responsive" concierge services, VIP seats at events around the world, and exclusive access to top private clubs in major cities around the world. It can be described as a card in hand. You can think of anything.

In fact, Li Anran already has one such a card in his hand, but it is not the Centurion black gold card of American Express. It is a VIP card issued by SIX Bank, which is also black. It's just that it has three silver safe keys crossed together.

This card was taken when I bought the island, and at the same time, in the process of buying the island, Swiss banks also made a lot of efforts. And what satisfies Li Anran the most is that after having this card, he has no problem spending in China at all. As for the state-owned bank accounts such as the Bank of China and the China Merchants Bank, they have all been cancelled.

But what made Li Anran depressed was that he couldn't get the card right away after working so hard for this trip. Just according to his own requirements, he chose a pleasing pattern for this one-of-a-kind personal black and gold card in the world, and got his English name on it.

Although this centurion card is more powerful than the VIP card of Swiss International Bank in terms of function. But such an inhumane work efficiency directly made Li Anran make a bad comment in his heart. However, bad reviews are bad reviews, so I haven't forgotten to talk about business.

With the help of American Express's strong business and relationship network, Li Anran only spent one day to decide on the dairy production line, the procurement of top beef cattle, dairy cows, beef sheep and dairy sheep. After throwing a lot of money, these things were quickly taken care of.

Considering that even if the large-scale production line can be brought to Datang time and space, assembly, use and maintenance will be very problematic. Li Anran could only order two production lines, one large and one small, from the manufacturer of this type of equipment on the pretext that he wanted to try the so-called handmade production, and also purchased the processing equipment and technology for the so-called manual production of cheese, cheese and other dairy products.

The big production line goes directly to the Runaway Farm in Lewistown, Montana, which is big enough to have a small dairy production line, or a large processing plant.

As for the small production equipment to be sent to Datang Space, it will be directly loaded into trucks and delivered to a warehouse under the name of the trading company's headquarters in New York. Just find a time to run and you can easily get rid of it.

In addition to the production line, the batch of beef cattle, dairy cows, beef sheep and dairy sheep purchased by Li Anran will also be sent to the pasture recently. Thanks to the fact that the number of beef cattle raised in the ranch was not large in the first place, otherwise how to house this group of cattle would still be a problem.

Considering that it would be very troublesome to transport these animals to Yingzhou Island, Li Anran in addition to fattening cattle and calves, also deliberately spent a lot of money to purchase a batch of Japanese Wagyu cattle with 100% blood, and Jingye from Australian Angus cattle with the same 100% blood.

After the procurement of dairy production lines and beef cattle, dairy cows, beef sheep and dairy sheep was successfully completed, Anne, who was eager to set up her own business, flashed after taking the investment capital of 10 million US dollars and signing the relevant contracts.

Li Anran, who was finally able to act alone, spent another three days running a lap in person. A batch of the purchased equipment and various livestock were sent to Datang Time and Space, and by the way, a large amount of grain purchased by the trading company was also sent over.

After arriving in Datang, this batch of grain was not put into the warehouse for storage, but continued to supply the entire grain market in Kannai Province in unlimited quantities at the price before the disaster, so as to curb the soaring grain prices caused by the locust plague.

Not to mention, with this continuous supply of grain entering the market, the price of food that should have skyrocketed has indeed been suppressed to a certain extent. At the same time, it has also reduced the cost of Datang's official disaster relief a lot.

Of course, there is no shortage of guys who can do anything for personal gain at any time. In the face of such cheap food, there are a few guys who think they are very thoughtful, and they just intercept a batch of it and get a lot of benefits for themselves.

It's a pity that for things like the locust plague, Zhilu Dao relied on killing his brother to win the throne, and Li Shimin, who was most afraid of others talking about natural disasters, was very resolute and cautious, so these "smart people" who wanted to use the locust plague to make a fortune or achieve some ulterior motives were all cut off and confirmed their stupidity with their lives and freshness.

On the side of the academy, after a few days of running-in period, it is also slowly on the right track. Chinese pinyin, Arabic numerals, and many enlightenment textbooks are being taught in the Enlightenment Academy according to different stages.

At the Faculty of Agriculture, the techniques of planting new crops such as potatoes, corn, peanuts, and pasture were taught, and research projects were also set up on the improvement of new plows, waterwheels, wells, and agricultural tools.

There are also quite a lot of people in the cooking training class, the traditional Chinese medicine training class and the driving training class, especially the latter two training courses are in a state of saturation because of the intervention of the Datang official, and even Zhao Er was temporarily transferred to the driving training class as an instructor.

As for the account books about commercial taxes that Cheng Yanjin brought back before, as well as the copper coins used as taxes, they also caused a great sensation in the court. Although the total amount of these taxes is not much, considering that this is only a trial stage and is only limited to the commercial street, it is enough to attract the attention of Li Shimin and those high-ranking officials.
