Chu Xiangqian and Maria, who were riding horses, talked and laughed all the way into the meadow at night.

Not long after, I came to the newly developed lake of the ranch and entered a two-story, 150-square-meter all-wooden hut, and soon the sound of intense singing came from the house.

Probably knowing that there was no one around the lakeside hut, Maria, a western girl, was excited and released her voice without scruples.

However, even if Maria is considered to be athletic, she is still an ordinary person in the end, and she has already lost a mess in just half an hour of competition.

But the more this is the case, the more this woman loves Chu Qianqian in her heart.

Wrapped in blankets, the two took their beers to the deck chairs on the viewing platform on the second floor of the lakeside hut and lay down.

Not long after talking and laughing and drinking beer and resting, this chick took the initiative to invite to play the second game.

The moonlight, the silver lake, the dark forest in the distance, and the occasional frog chirping did make Chu Xiangqian feel unusually happy.

——

The next day, Chu Xiangqian returned to the manor refreshed, but Maria could only ask for leave to stay alone in the lake hut to rest.

However, when he sent Chu forward and rode away, although the eyes of this chick were already full of exhaustion, there was also love that could not be dissolved.

And a lot of calloused fingers on the palm of the hand touched the diamond necklace on the neck, and this love was even stronger.

A man who is handsome, rich, willing, and super capable can be described as one in ten thousand.

Maria also understands why a woman of Margaret's status would follow Chu forward without a name.

Thinking of the experience of the three friendly matches last night, Maria also understood why Chu Xiangqian had obviously married a wife, and he still wanted to find lovers such as Hong Kong Sheng and Fei Fei.

is really with her own physique, she has lost so badly, and the Asian woman with a more slender and delicate body really can't hide Chu Qianqian's needs alone.

Just like Chu Xiangqian's master said, if a person with his physique only marries one wife, it will hurt his wife.

After Chu Xiangqian returned to the manor, seeing that Margaret's smile was a little reluctant, he immediately knew that this chick was jealous.

Laughing, he picked her up and went upstairs to the bedroom, and when Margaret was tired and lay down, there was no time to think about those messy things.

At the same time, I also understand that it is good for myself and Chu Xiangqian to go out to find food appropriately.

——

After Margaret was physically and mentally satisfied, she naturally didn't care about whether Chu Xiangqian had other women outside.

At the end of the night, Margaret once again returned to the style of a little daughter-in-law, serving Chu Qianqian vegetables from time to time.

I didn't even let the maid on the side do the pouring.

Not two days after the days calmed down, Kumiko whispered a few words in his ear.

In the evening, in the valley that he had often come to before, Chu Qianqian, who had come on horseback, didn't wait long before he saw a small van driving towards this side at a constant speed through the.

Seeing that the person driving was Ichiro Matsuno, the also looked through the glass of the car, and saw that there was no one else inside, Chu Xiangqian was relieved.

A few minutes later, the van stopped beside Chu Xiangqian, and Ichiro Matsuno turned off the engine and opened the rear door of the van as soon as possible.

I saw that there were neatly stacked inside, at least forty or fifty black handbags.

According to a bag of 1 million US dollars, the cash that needs to be shipped out of the magnesium country this time may really be 50 or 60 million.

After Matsuno finished speaking, Chu Xiangqian also determined that there were 50 million US dollars this time.

Of these, 10 million belonged to the Chicago mafia, and the remaining 40 million li, of which 30 million belonged to Pablo, and the other 10 million belonged to one of Pablo's collaborators.

Chu Xiangqian doesn't matter who it is, the mafia's 10 million directly draws out 3 million US dollars, and the remaining 40 million should be enough to exchange for 400,000 tons of wheat.

As for how Pablo managed to buy such a large amount of grain, that was his business.

After asking Matsuno Ichiro to leave all the money bags on the ground, and then driving away first, Chu waved his hand forward and put dozens of money bags into the warehouse of the novice village.

Of the 50 million miles, of which 40 million belong to Pablo, Chu Xiangqian will not directly draw 3 percent, that is, 12 million US dollars in cash.

The money will be used to purchase about 400,000 tons of food from Pablo.

As for the Chicago Mafia's 10 million, it will take $3 million.

That is, this time the mafia was able to buy only 7 million dollars of flour, and not 10 million, as before.

Old Frank and Russell were naturally dissatisfied, but the two also knew that the direct side could not restrain the people of Qian Zhuang at all.

After Chu Xiangqian put the money away, he didn't go back to the ranch manor.

Instead, he rode a red rabbit and crossed 200 kilometers overnight to appear on the magnesium-Mexico border.

Along the way, let go of the red rabbit that ran wildly, and the one that ran was called a pleasure.

The Red Rabbit, who is already level 21, has a physique of 17.4, a strength of 3.1, and an agility of 4.5, which can be said to have completely surpassed the limits of the creatures in the Blue Star World.

Even the demonic beasts in the fantasy world are not necessarily stronger than Chitu in terms of physique.

The 200-kilometer journey took Chitu less than 3 hours to reach the border in one go.

That's a lot faster than driving.

Then, led by the, cross the border and change into a regular quartema and enter the city of Tijuana on the Mexican side.

Seeing that the time was already 1 o'clock in the evening, Chu Xiangqian did not enter the city of Tijuana, but took a detour and went directly to the small airport outside the city.

Because he had to fly to Panama City basically once a month before, Chu Xiangqian simply bought a small auger plane and stored it in the airport outside the city.

And he also rented a warehouse, as long as he arrived at the airport, he could fly his own plane to Panama City anytime and anywhere.

This time, Chu Xiangqian didn't wait for Ichiro Matsuno and others, who should not have arrived in Panama City yet, and this time the money was too much, so he could only be insured, so he chose five banks in Panama City and rented ten safes.

After getting ten keys and credentials, he hid them in the ceiling of a hotel bathroom.

In the end, he asked the sable to stay in the suite, waiting for Ichiro Matsuno to bring someone over to get the keys and credentials.

And Pablo got these keys and the credentials to open the safe, and he didn't have to take the money away, he only needed to take out the money and deposit it directly in the bank.

It's safer and more convenient to do so.

Chu Xiangqian himself flew back to Tijuana early in the morning, and when he returned to the ranch, it only took 20 hours.

As for the grain, Pablo received $47 million in the bank's vault.

Ichiro Matsuno repeatedly promised that he would deposit 400,000 tons of wheat and corn in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

At the price of grain in Brazil, Pablo actually lost at least one or two million dollars of these 400,000 tons of wheat and corn, but Pablo didn't care at all.

Chu Xiangqian gave him more share of the money laundering, and this loss could be recovered from other business partners.

And the extra 10 million shares this time are actually a sum of money that the leader of a big force in Rio de Janeiro is stranded in the magnesium country.

Help him get the money from magnesium country to Panama, not only can it be deposited in a bank on the offshore island, and in return, you can ask them to help buy wheat and corn in Brazil.

The price will also be much lower than the price that Pablo himself sent to Brazil to buy.

A week later, Chu Xiangqian received 400,000 tons of grain from Ichiro Matsuno, which was stored in Port Alegre.

But he didn't plan to go to Porto Alegre on his own.

Naturally, the person who picked up the goods could only be sent by the Celestial Empire itself, and relatively speaking, the power of the Zhongqing Bureau on the Brazilian side was not so great.

Maybe three or five transactions, half a year has passed, and the Zhongqing Bureau doesn't know about the grain.

By the time they started noticing, it was almost 62 years.

At that time, although there was still a drought in the Celestial Empire, the situation would be much better than the previous three years.

However, thinking that there was still a drought in some areas of the Celestial Empire in 62, it was just in case that I could get more food to go back.

If the Celestial Empire can't use it, when Tianzhu starts to move, he can sell it for a good price.

After solving the problem of food, Chu Xiangqian's mind was naturally focused on the shooting competition held by the ranch.

Because it was the first and first event of its kind, the participants were all residents of the surrounding town of Solván.

And the prize of 1,000 dollars for the first place is still not a small attraction.

On the day of the game, even in Santa Barbara County and Los Angeles City, some people spontaneously drove over to join in the fun.

There were too many people, and many of them had guns, which made Margaret want to see the excitement, but was persuaded by Arthur and others.

I could only pout and watch as the woman Maria Tucker appeared on the podium before the game as a representative.

However, Margaret couldn't attend, so Chu Xiangqian was naturally pulled by her and could only stay behind the scenes.

Fortunately, the purpose of promoting the ranch exceeded expectations.

During the three days of competition, most of the people watched the shooting competitions in the morning, and many people stayed at the ranch's holiday camp at noon and afternoon.

Over the course of three days, horseback riding, hot air balloons, barbecues and flying at a small airport alone paid for the prize money awarded by the competition and the money spent on the preparation of the event.

This made Maria Tucker realize that she could make more money from tourists than from running a ranch.

For family trips to ranches, golf courses, wine estates and fruit groves, that's called a positive.

Chu Xiangqian also wished that someone was in charge of these trivial matters, and since he had eaten Maria-Tucker, this woman could be regarded as his own person.

And Maria's needs are simple, she only needs to play a friendly match with her in the lake hut, and this woman will be resurrected the next day with all her thoughts on the operation of the ranch.

It didn't take long to follow Chu Xiangqian's suggestion and reach an agreement with several travel companies in Los Angeles to focus on foreign tourists.

Tourists come in droves, and they don't have to worry about the local city dwellers around California starting to get tired of ranch tours after one or two visits.

As tourists continue to appear, other ranchers in Solvang have begun to transform their farms.

So much so that the town of Solvang will become one of the tourist check-in places in Los Angeles in only three or five months in the future.

It's just that in this way, other towns will inevitably become jealous and begin to compete with the town of Solvang for tourists.

But if business were that good, there wouldn't be so many ranchers going bankrupt every year.

Soon there were some small and medium-sized ranches that lost money because of blindly following the trend.

If you just spend your own money to renovate the ranch, it's better to say that you will lose money, and it won't hurt your muscles and bones.

But if you take a loan from a bank and blindly follow the trend, and you can't attract many tourists, then the rancher will be in trouble.

In less than half a year, the town of Solvang and some surrounding towns had the ranch forcibly taken away by the bank and then auctioned off.

Maria persuaded Chu Xiangqian to take the opportunity to buy more pastures, but Chu Xiangqian was not interested in small pastures.

Moreover, the sporadic acquisition of pastures in various places will increase the difficulty of management exponentially.

When the time comes, no matter how much you buy, it will be a loss-making transaction.

It's better to just stare at the pastures in the small town of Solvan Town.

Or the kind of super-large ranch that is tens of thousands of acres, tens of thousands of acres.

It's just that when Chu Xiangqian was staring at other people's ranches, the local rancher in California also began to notice his Alisa ranch.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian was very prescient, and after buying the ranch, he put the ranch in the fund with the initials of himself and Margaret.

No matter how the outside world checks, the first thing they find is Margaret.

Although the royal family has no real power, its prestige is still not low.

Especially on the side of the magnesium country, after many people have money, if they can't enter the political arena temporarily, many people will put their minds on getting the noble medal of the infant country.

So even if there is capital to target Alisa Ranch, because of Margaret's identity, it has never been done.

Chu Xiangqian learned from Senator Robert Alessandro that someone was investigating things such as ranch taxes and hiring labor.

Robert was immediately asked to come to the ranch with his daughter Liber Alessandro and son Vivi Alessandro.

Liber and Vicky were very close to him because they had been saved by Chu Xiangqian.

Robert is already an advisor to the Solvang Wildlife Conservation Fund, the Cattle, Sheep and Crops Research Fund, which Chu Xiangqian founded.

The money he gets from the fund every year is twenty or thirty thousand, so Chu Xiangqian is now one of his financiers.

As soon as Robert heard the news, he told Chu Xiangqian.

After knowing who was eyeing his ranch, Chu Xiangqian had a bottom in his heart.

Alessandro's family of three, who had been sent away from the ranch for three days, Chu Xiangqian had already thought of how to counter the other party in the past few days.

Since the other party is not only a banker who plays with capital, but also a rancher and vineyard owner in Bells County, north of Los Angeles, don't blame yourself for playing some special tricks.

There are now 12 wolves and 30 boars that refresh every day in the game.

That night, Chu Xiangqian rode his horse, crossed the forest east of the town of Solwan, and galloped all the way towards Bells County.

When he arrived at the mountains outside the ranch where the target was located, Chu Xiangqian rode a red rabbit around this 30,000-acre super large ranch for more than 2 hours.

Only then was in a valley that the 12 wild wolves that had been refreshed today were released.

They rode for several miles, and all of them entered the forests of the county of Bakers, and released 30 wild boars.
