Chapter 1987: Texas Ranch
Li Han spent a lot of effort to find out from Lingna what happened. "Texas Farmers and Ranchers Association, let's do this. I'll call Jennifer in a minute."
The matter may not be big or small, but it is a troublesome matter. Speaking of this matter, I have to say that Stanley is the future father-in-law. Stanley, it is nothing to acquire a farm. Stanley now has nearly one million acres of farmland and land in his hands. He was known as one of the top ten landowners in the United States many years ago, and now his ranking has risen to seventh.
Something went wrong with a recently purchased farm. This farm is located southwest of San Antonio. It is one of the largest farms here, with nearly 100,000 acres of large integrated farm.
Due to poor management and the impact of the financial crisis, the farm owner sold the farm. It was just Stanley who bought it. Not long after, something happened. Cowboys on the farm broke into the farm with guns and hijacked the farm workers.
The problem lies here. These cowboys are all former employees of the farm. However, due to operating problems and the reduction of cattle and sheep breeding, these cowboys have lost their jobs. When Stanley purchased the farm this time, I don't know who promised to solve these cowboy problems, but Stanley didn't know. Now the problem is, this is not just one or two cowboys, but more than thirty cowboys making a riot.
The Texas government hopes that St. Andy Farms will resolve this matter on its own. Stanley is not in the United States now, but is in the UK. He has just acquired Arsenal shares. Stanley needs to convince other shareholders to sell the shares and complete the final acquisition plan. Short Time, I can’t go back to the United States.
Jennifer originally thought that in the past, the Mexican Walmart bribery case was officially in court. Jennifer was the main person responsible for this matter. It would be difficult to leave for a while.
On Josh's side, the team is in a period of turmoil because of the departure of its star star Anthony. It's okay for a short time, but the matter on the farm is really not something that can be solved in a short time.
Stanley, the purpose of the acquisition was just to hoard land, but now he is responsible for farm experience and employees, which is inconsistent with Stanley's original intention. Han wanted to buy it, but the price for such a large comprehensive farm was not cheap.
"Jennifer, I'll go over there. This can't be solved in a short time." Li Han said. “Farms have to get back in business.”
"Han, I'm so sorry," Jennifer said. "sorry to bother you."
Jennifer hung up the phone, glanced at Lingna, and shook her head slightly. "Jennifer, isn't this a good opportunity?" Lingna said with a smile. "Han will solve this matter. I think Mr. Stanley will look at Han differently at that time, right?"
"I hope so." Jennifer, it's not that she couldn't find anyone, it was just Lingna who encouraged her. After a moment of hesitation, Lingna took advantage of her.
"Texas?"
Natalie looked confused. "Han, what are you doing in Texas?"
"It's to solve something."
Li Han said with a smile. "Tomorrow, let's go and everyone pack up."
"So urgent?"
"It's a bit urgent." The cowboy's question was not something that could be delayed.
The family set out early the next morning and arrived in San Antonio nearly midnight. "I'm so exhausted." After checking into the hotel, he fell asleep.
"Morning."
"Have some breakfast." Li Han said with a smile, holding up his beer.
Natalie yawned. "Thank you, I'd like a cup of coffee."
"This hotel is in a great location." The hotel is located near the River Walk and is one of the best hotels in all of San Antonio. The River Walk is one of the symbols of San Antonio. It is lush green and full of restaurants, hotels, roadside cafes, souvenir shops, and museums. The architecture here is different from other American cities and is full of exotic atmosphere.
This city, located at the junction of the United States and Mexico, is deeply influenced by Mexican culture. Spain once left profound traces here, and relics of Spanish culture can be seen everywhere.
"Natalie, there's something I need your help with." Li Han put down his beer and said.
"Me?" Natalie looked surprised. "Are you sure you're right?"
"That's right.
Li Han said. "I heard Alta say, have you been here?" "
"Yes, Alta is with me." Natalie nodded.
"Well, today, you take everyone to visit San Antonio." Li Han said with a smile. "I have something to do."
"What's the matter?" Natalie muttered.
"A little thing."
"Dudu and daddy are going together." The villain said.
"You, okay." Li Han glanced at the villain and nodded.
Natalie looked at Han suspiciously. "Han, are you sure something is really wrong with you?" Natalie muttered. This guy actually brought Pandora with him, so it's definitely not a big deal.
"There is something really wrong. Let's do this. I promise you a condition." Li Han thought about it and said.
"Okay." Natalie smiled. "You have to remember."
"ok, no problem."
Li Han said with a smile.
After leaving the hotel, Li Han dialed the number of St. Andy's Farm. "Hello, I'm Han."
"Mr. Han." A happy voice came from the other end of the phone. "You're here."
"How is the situation on the farm?" Li Han asked.
"The farm is running pretty well, it's just, out there, the cowboys, hoping someone will come out and negotiate with them."
"What are you doing?" Before Li Han could speak, a roar came from the phone.
"Bobby, this is Mr. Hank's phone number," the man said. "Mr. Hank is the farm manager."
"Are you the farm owner?"
"No, I am the representative of the farm owner." Li Han said. "Li Han, a Chinese."
"Chinese?" Bobby muttered softly on the other side. "Chinese know how to run a farm?"
Although the voice was small, Li Han could hear it clearly. "Bobby, I want to tell you that China knows how to run a farm better than anyone else."
"Well, I don't want to discuss this issue with you." Bobby said. "We need a job. If you can give us a job, no one will discuss farm management with you."
"I like to work for others, but I hope my workers can create value for me." Li Han said. "I won't give any job opportunity to a lazy person."
Bobby paused. This was a little different from his impression of the Chinese. "We are all the most hardworking cowboys. Laziness is a shame for cowboys. Please don't insult the dignity of cowboys."
"No, I respect cowboys, I respect anyone who works hard." Li Han said. "But, Mr. Bobby, what you did first makes people doubt whether you are still cowboys."
Bobby was angry. "Cunning Chinese, I said I need a job if you want San Antonio Farm to operate normally."
"Well, I think we need to have a good talk instead of attacking each other on the phone." Li Han said.
Although Bobby was very angry, Han was right. Anger can't solve the problem. A job, a stable job, is the ultimate goal of these cowboys.
"It's really a troublesome thing." These cowboys need jobs. The government directly pushed this problem to San Antonio Farm for trouble.
"Mr. Hank." Eric said in a low voice.
"Please call me Mr. Li. I don't know your name?"
"Eric, Mr. Li." Eric.
"Eric, can the farm send a car to pick us up?" Li Han said. "I just arrived in San Antonio and I'm not familiar with it."
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Li." Eric said. "The farm gate was blocked by cowboys."
"It's unfortunate. Well, I'll think of a way." Li Han said.
"I'm very sorry."
"It doesn't matter." Li Han hung up the phone and asked someone.
"Car rental shop?"
"Maybe it's more cost-effective to buy a car." Li Han thought about it and said.
A pickup truck, Li Han spent 45,000 US dollars to buy a Ford Raptor. "Get in quickly." Li Han, toot up, little man, sit down. "Let's go."
San Andreas Ranch is close to Cotulla, on the railway line into Mexico. It is about two hours' drive from San Antonio. Arriving in Cotulla, not far southeast, San Andreas Ranch, the place is not difficult to find.
When they came to the farm entrance, as expected, the farm gate was closed. "The door is closed."
"Please open the door." Li Han shouted.
Two cowboys walked over and asked Li Han's identity. "Go tell Bobby to ask the farm people to come over and see if it is this person."
"Okay."
Eric ran over soon. "Mr. Li, I'm so sorry."
"Pandora."
"Ah, Miss Pandora, you are here too." In contrast, Eric was more respectful and enthusiastic to Pandora.
Li Han muttered to himself, this guy, I think he knows his identity, he won't treat me as a gigolo. Li Han muttered to himself, checked the pickup truck and entered the farm.
The farm is divided into several areas, breeding area and planting area, living area and office area, living area, where the original owner of the farm lived. "It looks like it has been renovated here?"
"Yes, Mr. Stanley, renovate here." Eric opened the door.
I have to say that the original owner of this farm is a person who knows how to enjoy, swimming pool, lounge, entertainment room, home theater, and even a wine tasting room and cigar room. △≧miào.*bi(.*)gé△≧,
Indoor and outdoor swimming pool, this is a very luxurious manor, maybe it's more appropriate. "It's really nice here."
"This is the toy room, which Mr. Stanley prepared for Miss Pandora." Eric said.
No wonder this guy is more enthusiastic about Pandora than himself. After all, the owner of this farm is Stanley, isn't he?
"Wow, so many toys."
All kinds of toys, gathered together, with a small yellow duck desk and a yellow duck chair in the middle. I have to say that Stanley really put a lot of thought into it. I wonder if he had thought about inviting Pandora to be a guest here.
Li Han nodded as he looked at it. "Eric, let's stop here for the tour. I want to know the specific situation of the farm."
"You know, this matter is very important to the farm. Mr. Stanley called from the UK and hopes to know the situation here. I hope to solve this matter before tomorrow." Li Han said.
