Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 1012 First Contact
This sentence immediately made the guests in the bar admire Zhao Lei. Even those young people who were jealous of Zhao Lei and Jessica's being together cast admiring glances at him, and many people even whistled at Zhao Lei. Cheers to him.

Even these young and strong cowboys are not sure that they can defeat the three burly men alone.But Zhao Lei did it with ease, which earned him respect in the sturdy Texas state.

The bar owner put back the shotgun in his hand and laughed loudly: "China Zhao, I didn't expect you to have this skill. It's really amazing. Damaged a table and two chairs, two hundred dollars, thank you!"

"No problem, put it on my account!" Zhao Lei said with a smile: "Give everyone another glass of the best beer, I treat you!"

Zhao Lei's words immediately erupted in the bar, and a drunken old man raised his glass and shouted: "To Chinese Kungfu, to the owner of Redstone Ranch!"

Only then did the three guys who harassed Jessica realize that the "yellow monkey" they were talking about was not easy to mess with.Moreover, he has a very good relationship with the locals, so this can be regarded as hitting the iron plate.

Amidst the cheers of others, the three guys helped each other to stand up and left the bar in embarrassment.

Amidst the jubilant sound, a tall, thin young man with a hooked nose was sitting in the corner of the bar, staring at Zhao Lei and Jessica intently.

This guy is James, who is respectfully called the "Master" by his followers, and he is responsible for the bloody handprints on the red rock.James just relied on this pretentious means to scare away the original owner of Redstone Ranch not long ago.

James thought that he would be able to get rid of the interference and get a good understanding of the secrets hidden in the red rock.However, Zhao Lei immediately bought the Redstone Ranch, making James' wishful thinking come to naught.

When Zhao Lei bought the ranch, he built a lot of construction work, and even shoveled out the grass and replanted it. This also made James suspect that his purpose for buying the ranch might be for the secret of the red rock.

The strength that Zhao Lei showed when dealing with those men today also aggravated James' suspicion.In his opinion, ordinary people are not that capable. The guy who bought Redstone Ranch is definitely not an ordinary person.

Thinking of this, James walked towards Zhao Lei and Jessica with a wine glass in his hand, and when he was still a few steps away from them, he pretended to be surprised and said loudly: "Jessica, it's really you!"

Seeing James walking quickly, Jessica was a little embarrassed, but still greeted him with a smile: "Hello, James, long time no see."

"It's been a long time." James said with a smile on his face, "I heard that you are already a reporter. Are you here for an interview?"

Jessica shook her head and said, "No, I'm here for a private matter."

James nodded, smiled and said to Jessica: "Anyway, I have to buy you a drink, we can have a good chat!"

James' enthusiasm made Jessica a little uncomfortable. She quickly took Zhao Lei's arm and said, "Let me introduce you. This is James Carter, my college classmate. This is Zhao Lei, my boyfriend."

It was only at this time that James seemed to have noticed Zhao Lei. After taking a look at him, he said in surprise, "Isn't he the new owner of Redstone Ranch? He turned out to be your boyfriend. This world is really too small."

Jessica looked at Zhao Lei with a smile on her face and said, "I came to see his ranch with Zhao Lei this time. I didn't expect to meet my old classmate. What a coincidence."

Of course, Zhao Lei could tell that James seemed to be very enthusiastic about Jessica.But this guy didn't do anything out of the ordinary, of course he would treat each other with courtesy, and said to the other party with a smile: "Mr. Carter, it's a pleasure to meet you, are you also from Columbus?"

"Yeah, I'm a local." James smiled innocently, and soon said seemingly unintentionally: "Jessica and I are college classmates. When we were studying, we invited her to Columbus Town to play." How many days?"

These words made Jessica a little nervous, and quickly added: "I came with several classmates, and everyone took advantage of the summer vacation to travel around."

Zhao Lei said with a smile: "When you are young, you should walk around to increase your knowledge."

Seeing that Zhao Lei didn't look angry at all, James quickly changed the subject and asked, "I don't know what Mr. Zhao's plan is for the management of the ranch?"

Jessica frowned even tighter, feeling that James took too much control, what did Zhao Lei's management of the ranch have to do with him?
Zhao Lei also felt that this guy had ulterior motives, but because of Jessica's face, he didn't bother with him. He just replied lightly: "Since it's a pasture, of course it mainly raises livestock, and also uses some land to grow vegetables. That's all."

This was no secret at all, even if Zhao Lei didn't tell it himself, outsiders would still know it through the mouth of the cowboy working on the ranch, so there was no need to hide it.

However, in James' view, Zhao Lei's straightforward answer to himself only shows that he must not be telling the truth, and his suspicion of Zhao Lei has deepened.

Some people are like this. It is unreasonable to think that other people are like him when they clearly have ghosts in their hearts.

At this moment, Mark and other workers in the ranch entered the bar one after another, and the straightforward Harden immediately yelled at Zhao Lei: "Boss, so you have arrived!"

Old John smiled and said: "The boss asked us to come to the bar, he must be planning to invite everyone to drink!"

Mark couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You drunkard, even if the boss treats you, you can't drink too much. Don't forget you have to go to work tomorrow!"

Seeing Mark and others coming in, James also frowned secretly, and quickly said to Zhao Lei and Jessica: "I still have something to do, let's go first, you have fun!"

After saying this, James left in a hurry, as if unwilling to meet Mark and others.

As soon as the guy left, Mark and the others came to the table. Harden frowned and looked at James' back and asked Zhao Lei, "That guy is James Carter, boss, how do you know this weird guy?"

"He is Jessica's college classmate. He came over to say hello when he saw us." Zhao Lei said with a smile: "Since everyone is here, let's have a drink first, boss, give my guys a glass of beer, remember me account!"

"The boss is so generous!" Old John yelled contentedly, causing the other guests to burst into laughter.

However, Mark's expression was a bit dignified, and he pulled Zhao Lei aside and reminded him in a low voice: "Boss, don't blame me for talking too much, I really do it for your own good. If it is not necessary, try not to contact that guy James Good!"
