Alpine pasture

Chapter 327 Low-key low-key
It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon when Ju An and Wang Fan returned to the house. When they entered the house, they found that Marcos and Melina had also come over today. The two old people were holding their grandson and playing with them. Said hello and carried the luggage to his bedroom upstairs.

When they went downstairs, Dinah asked, "Is everything done? Wang Fan came back as well."

"Yeah!" Ju An kissed Dina: "Wang Fan was so surprised when he encountered something, so I ran away for nothing."After he finished speaking, he walked to the sofa and sat down. The son saw Ju An giggling and opened his small hand towards his father. Ju An took the son from Melina's lap and looked carefully. Her eyes were just like the ones in the photos of her when she was a child. Dinah's shadow was rarely seen, and she praised her in her heart: This is my son.

He kissed his two sons fiercely, put the child on his lap, and asked Dinah, "Has Nini come back? If she doesn't come back, I'll pick it up later!".

Marcos said, "I'm back. When we came over, we went to the kindergarten to pick it up, and we're still playing in the pool now."

"Oh!" Ju An nodded and asked Marcos, "Is everything on the farm okay?"

"It's all good!" Melina said, "I just want the little lion to come and have a look. The New York thing is done?".

Ju An smiled and said, "It's not a big deal."After finishing speaking, he handed his son to Melina's arms: "I'll go see Nini, don't play too long."After speaking, she stood up and walked towards the indoor swimming pool, Dinah would not let Nini run to the outside swimming pool alone to play, saying that it was too close to the lake.

Pushing open the door of the swimming pool, I saw the little girl sitting on an air cushion floating on the water, wearing a diving goggles on her eyes, paddling the water with her hands, Wu Song also mixed a seat on the air cushion, Teddy stretched out a The big head is on the air cushion behind it, and the small ones are still playing by the pool. Of course, there are girls who can't see the brothers Hans and Jinbao. Now they are probably lying on the fork of the tree outside.

Seeing Ju An, "Dad! It's back!" The girl shouted and said to Teddy behind: "Come on, Teddy, let's paddle over."After hearing this, Teddy pushed harder, and the speed of the air cushion increased significantly. Along the way, he knocked down a few ducklings, inflatable toys such as little penguins, and arrived at the pool.

When the girl got out of the water, Ju An picked up the towel on the reclining chair next to her and wiped the water droplets on her head: "Go change clothes, it's time to eat."Looking at the swimming pool with more than a dozen inflatable toys floating, Ju An said to Nini: "When the toys are finished, pick them up and put them in the pool no matter what."

"Little ducks like water! They want to stay in it," Nini said to Ju An seriously.He patted Nini's head: "I see, go and change your clothes. Grandpa and grandma won't play with you for a while when grandpa and grandma come, you know how to play by yourself."

Nini giggled twice and ran into the locker room. Ju An waited for Teddy to climb ashore. She threw the water and took some animals to blow their hair. The warm wind blew on Teddy. On the body, the little things were a little sleepy, and after blowing their hair, they ran directly to the edge of the sofa and took a nap.

Nini sat on Marcos' lap and was telling Marcos the story of kindergarten vividly. Marcos asked, "How did you get along with the children in kindergarten?" "The question of whether you are happy or not."Nini always talked a lot about Ulla Ulla, and began to digress after a few sentences.

After the family finished dinner, Dinah and Melina were packing things in the kitchen, and Ju An and her old father-in-law, Marcos, sat on the sofa and chatted.

Marcos said to Ju An, "I heard that your ranch is going to recruit new cowboys."

"En!" Ju An nodded and said, "There is such a thing, but it's not this year, it should be next year!".Thinking about his extra 2 acres of land, Marcos must know that it is not uncommon to know that the ranch needs to recruit cowboys.

Marcos said with a smile: "A lot of cowboys in town are eager to try. Your salary here is already a little higher, plus the year-end bonus. It's too high! It's almost as much as a small business owner's income."

Ju An smiled and explained, "I didn't expect the income of the ranch to be so high. At the beginning, I followed the net profit set by the cowboys. I can't say how much."

Marcos nodded after listening to it: "Then you have to pay attention in the future, what you did last year was a bit too flamboyant, you can change the way, now I hear the cowboys in town talking about the salary of an ordinary cowboy on your ranch for a year. More than [-] U.S. dollars can easily cause dissatisfaction among other ranchers. If you recruit people like this, other ranchers have to increase their wages if they want to hire people, which is not good.”

After listening to Marx's words, Ju An thought for a while and said: "Well! I know, it will be divided into quarters and quarters in the future, but it is estimated that there are still quite a few this year. , the profits of white cattle are too high, and all white cattle will be even higher in the future.”

"It doesn't matter how many times you send it, you have to mention it to the cowboys and ask them to keep it secret. Don't be like the end of last year, just send the check directly, and the next day a bunch of cowboys will wave tens of thousands of dollars each. A check in US dollars goes to the bank, and direct transfer from the bank is much more low-key, a check can really boost morale, but it is too ostentatious and not desirable," Marcos said to Ju An.

"I see. I told the accountant this year that direct bank transfers should be used to distribute dividends, and the cowboys also said that they should not talk about it everywhere." Ju An accepted the advice of the old father-in-law.

"How many cowboys does the ranch plan to recruit next year?" Marcos continued.

Ju An thought for a while and said, "Fifteen or six new cowboys, that's probably the number that Lawrence mentioned to me last time."

"This time we are recruiting cowboys, so don't make too much fanfare. Lawrence and Thomas both know a lot of good cowboys. In addition, you can show the cowboys at the ranch. If you don't know a few good cowboys in the ranch, let them know a few. Just contact privately," Marcos suggested to Ju An.

Weng and son-in-law chatted for a while, Thomas drove a car with Melina to the house, Ju An watched his father-in-law's car drive out of sight and said to Dinah, "I have something to discuss with Lawrence Thomas and Lawrence Thomas at the ranch. Down".

Dinah nodded after hearing this: "Come back soon!".

"Yeah!" Ju An kissed Dina's forehead, turned and walked out of the house, got on the helicopter, and flew towards the pasture.

When they arrived at the ranch's office, Thomas and Lawrence were both there. When they saw Ju An coming over, he smiled and said, "Ann! Why are you here so late today?"

Gu An pulled out a chair and sat down, put his hat on the table and said to the two of them, "I want to discuss something with you. Just now, Marcos talked to me about the recruitment of cowboys on the ranch."

Thomas was stunned and said, "What's the matter?".

"Marcos suggested that we recruit cowboys this time to keep a low profile and not make it public, saying that you two know a lot of good cowboys, you can get in touch, or you can introduce the cowboys from the ranch," Ju An said to the two of them.

After listening, Lawrence said with a smile: "Thomas and I are planning to do this. How can we open recruitment? If this is open, we don't know how many cowboys will come. We just find some cowboys who are familiar with the ranch and have good skills."

Ju An let out a sigh of relief, the two old men and Marcos wanted to go together, and said on the excuse: "In addition, for this year's dividend distribution, we will no longer use cheques, direct bank transfers before Christmas, and tell the cowboys not to go anywhere. Go and say, after listening to Marcos, I seem to have become the enemy of the rancher."

After listening, Thomas nodded and said: "Let's go back and tell the cowboys, this year everyone's bonuses go directly to the bank, and the cowboys can also inquire about each other, but it's a little more shocking to have a check. I just got it last year. When I got the check, I carefully counted the zeros at the back. I have never been paid so much in my life as a cowboy, and I couldn’t sleep well the next night when I was sitting on the bed. I woke up and looked at it two or three times a night.”

Ju An laughed when he heard Thomas's words, and Lawrence nodded and said, "I felt the same way at the time. The check for tens of thousands of dollars was equal to the total income of the previous three years, so I just held it in my hand. I can't believe my eyes."

Ju An said jokingly: "Then, for your sleep, let's change it to a bank painting, and look it up a few times at night! If you want to see it, go to the bank's ATM and count the zeros. Just these two things, I'll tell you. a bit".

Lawrence nodded and said, "We have arranged the hiring of cowboys, you don't have to worry about it!".

"What should Ann be worried about? It wasn't when we first came here. This time I called two cowboys, and after mentioning the cowboys, I agreed." Thomas thought for a while and said, then sighed in a daze. Thinking of being rejected by some cowboys in the beginning.

"How's Leonard doing? Has there been any movement these days?" Ju An asked.

Lawrence said: "The pond is being dug these two days, and Professor Leonard is preparing a batch of grass seeds for the final preparations."

Ju An nodded: "The pond is almost dug."

Lawrence said: "It will be completed the day after tomorrow. Under Leonard's command, we will find a relatively low-lying ground to start digging. When I saw it yesterday, there was already water seepage."

"Okay, you guys are busy and I'm going back. I'll go see it myself tomorrow." After hearing this, Ju An stood up, put on his hat and went out the door.

Thinking about the grass in the new pasture, Ju An did a good plan to prevent the old man from finding out. He moved his hands and feet to make the space grass grow. It was necessary to control the speed of the grass growth, so as not to be too scary, but also to let the old man wonder if he could not. Well, this is a bit difficult.

After thinking about it for a long time, Ju An launched the helicopter and flew towards his home.
