After driving along the road for half an hour, a slightly quaint gate appeared.

"Bo, I'm here to see you."

Lisko stopped the car and shouted at the door, the castle law in the United States is not a joke. If you enter someone's home without permission, they really have the right to shoot you.

Soon, a man in his fifties who had trimmed his beard came out. He was wearing a denim jacket with pockets and some new denim shoes on his feet.

"plum,"

Bo stepped forward and hugged Lisko, "Welcome back, will you buy your father's ranch back?"

"Of course," Lisko knew what he meant.

"good.boy" Bo was even more satisfied.

Lisko handed him two bottles of wine, "Jack Daniels, I specially kept it. I wanted to give it to my father. Now you can try it for him."

Bo took the whisky and looked at the packaging carefully, with a smile between his eyebrows, "Come in, go in, I just made steak."

Lisko followed him to the dining table. The stainless steel hood was lifted, and there was a particularly large steak inside. The aroma was overflowing. Lisko also picked up the knife and fork to enjoy the food.

After dinner, Lisko took out a special Cuban cigar. These cigars were gifts he received in the literature club. In the United States, there are many relationships in a circle. When he was studying in New York, he was introduced by his tutor and entered a club dedicated to the literature department of Yale University. Of course, his age He was easily nominated for the Nobel Prize for Literature, and his relationship with the club was also helpful. After all, in this world, you are not guaranteed to be talented if you are talented.

Bo took a deep breath, "Great cigar, I haven't smoked such an authentic cigar for a long time."

Lisko smiled and began to say his purpose.

"Bo, I just bought back the Li's Ranch with 7 million, and I plan to settle here in the future, but you know, although I grew up on the ranch, I used to be a nerd and didn't know anything about the ranch."

Bo listened and motioned him to continue.

"So, I wondered if I could find a rooster to help me. After all, he has been managing the pasture for you for more than ten years."

Bo thought for a while, "The rooster is not good enough, he will screw it up."

Lisko was a little anxious, "Bo, the rooster is 30 years old. How old is he? The chicks always go out and fly. Let him try?"

Bo still shook his head and refused. Lisko was a little disappointed. The rooster grew up with him. Although it was a little unreliable, he was still very skilled at work. He had to get up and leave and find another way.

Lisko received the lawyer who handled the acquisition in the afternoon, processed all the documents to be signed, and took stock of his current assets.

"Mr. Lisko, at present your assets are as follows. There is a villa near New York University with three cars in it, with a total value of 30 million US dollars. It has now changed hands at a price of 45 million US dollars, and the proceeds have been transferred to your Citibank account. , spent $7 million to acquire Lee's Ranch, and Random House has brought in your $36 million in royalties from the last quarter. Your investment company owns 3.5% of Google and 7% of Oracle , Intel 0.7%, Microsoft 3%, Apple 3%, Ant Bank 15%, LinkedIn 7.3%, Citibank account balance of 325.27 million US dollars.”

Lisko listened to the financial staff's report and felt that his current asset investment was reasonable. He knocked on the table,

"Investment companies go to Rabbit Country to open mainland offices, and give priority to companies under investment." Lisko picked up a pen and wrote down some company names.

"When investing, communicate well. We can provide them with help in listing. Don't seek rights. We are doing angel investment. We just want to make a profit by listing, and we can hand over the shares to the company's existing chairman for escrow."

The financial staff quickly informed the order. Lisko was lying on the sofa alone, with a smile on his lips, "It's great to be reborn, one-handed king."

Lisko drove to the Li's Ranch. There was a sign on the door that was somewhat playful, "Pony Jasmine Ranch".

He pouted, picked up the stone from the side of the road, smashed it in three or two, opened the door, Lisko stood at the door, looked at the familiar plants and trees inside, and sighed, this is the inheritance of his ancestors for generations , Now take it back, take good care of it, don't ask for money here, just keep running it for your own use.

He walked forward and saw his villa. The villa has three floors. The first floor is the living room, kitchen, and gym. There are five bedrooms on the second floor, and a garden on the top floor.

He picked up the phone, "Hey, David, come over here."

David was a cowboy in his forties who made a living doing odd jobs on the ranch in town. Maggie introduced him to Lisko, who soon decided to hire him as a ranch worker, signed a contract, and Zhou. $700 salary.

"Clean up the pasture, change the signboard, and then see what you need, and give me a list. In the future, the pasture will mainly plant grass, raise dozens of cows, buy a few quark horses, and leave a field to grow vegetables. All are planted with lavender, and the lake is filled with fish."

David took out the notebook and thought about it, "BOSS, the pasture needs a bale machine, the cattle pen needs to be repaired, the gate needs to be repaired, and two pickups are needed."

Lisko waved his hand, "Go ahead and give me the bill then."

He went to the town house to get his luggage, returned to the ranch, put the books from the club seniors into the study, took out the special laptop given to him by Apple, and made a pot of tea, which he specially made He went to Chinatown to buy it. Biluochun was worth more than ten dollars, the kind he liked most at home in his previous life.

"Comfortable."

Lisko was basking in the sun and rocking on the reclining chair. The carefree life here was really a day he had dreamed of for a long time, and the nerves that had been tense until now were relaxed. Soon he fell asleep with the shaking.

When he woke up and covered himself with a quilt, he opened his eyes to see that Jasmine was busy in the kitchen.

"Jasmine," Lisko called out,

"Boss, would you like to eat steak at night?"

Jasmine quickly turned around and asked that Jasmine was David's wife, and Lisko asked her to take care of her own food and hygiene in the future, and she was also assigned a room in the staff dormitory in the ranch.

The staff quarters were built after the former rancher took over from Lisko's father.

"It's okay, thank you for the blanket." Lisko didn't have much pursuit of what to eat. And on the ranch, most ranchers eat steak.

He made up his mind that next time he goes to Chinatown, he must buy some ingredients to make some Chinese food himself, and eat the same thing every day, everyone will be bored.

Lisko went upstairs to take a shower, feeling cool all over. As soon as he went downstairs, he saw the rooster come in.

"Hey, brother,"

The **** and Lisko had a chest bump. They hadn't seen each other in a long time since Lisko High School left town.

The rooster is now thirty years old, and has all the characteristics of an American man, a big belly, a thick whisker, and slightly curly hair.

"Brother. I heard that you want me to help you manage the ranch?"

As soon as the rooster sat down, he hurriedly asked.

Lisko took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator and handed it over, he knew it was the rooster's favorite.

"Yes. You know I don't know anything about ranching. My main occupation is a writer. I'm currently working on a book to hit Nobel again."

He took a sip of beer and rammed the rooster.

"I will mainly maintain the subsequent ranch. For my own needs, I want to develop it into a family ranch, grow some non-GMO vegetables and grains, brew some extra beer, and raise dozens of cows. But you know, Bo refused. got me."

The rooster took another sip of wine, "He has always treated me like a child."

Seeing him like this, Lisko persuaded him, "Bo is for your own good, why don't you discuss it with Maggie?"

The rooster nodded silently.

The next day, as soon as Li Ke woke up from his sleep, he was stunned by the rush of phone calls.

"Hey, I'm a rooster. Maggie persuaded Bo that I can go to work at your place. Now should I call you BOSS?"

Lisko's spirit came, "Really? Great, I need you to take over many things here. Today you go to David and go to the cattle auction. This is what you are good at."

"Of course, please have your check ready, I will come home full of rewards."
