Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 1722 Old Food Farmer Fox
Mark Webb, who got the news, had already been waiting for the boss at the gate of the ranch. Seeing Zhao Lei and a petite and cute Asian girl came to the ranch together, and the two of them looked very close, Mark Webb also secretly ate. shock.

In Mark Weber's view, the boss Zhao Lei is good at everything.In addition to being very concerned about the development of the ranch, he also cares about the welfare of the employees. He is indeed a very rare and good boss.If you have to say something is wrong, it would be too bothersome.He was already very close to that beautiful female reporter, but in the blink of an eye he brought another Asian girl, which really gave him a headache.

Zhao Lei has always been vigorous and resolute in his work, and immediately went to see the newly cultivated grain fields when he arrived at the pasture.

Mark Webb was also unambiguous, and immediately asked his cowboy to drive a pickup truck, preparing to take Zhao Lei and Yingzi to the newly reclaimed grain field.

This is the first time Yingzi has come to Hongshi Ranch. While waiting for the bus, she looked around curiously and was deeply impressed by the magnificent scenery of the ranch.

Mark Weber looked at Yingzi secretly, and after a while he couldn't help but whispered to Zhao Lei: "Boss, I'm not qualified to manage your personal affairs, but this time I have to remind you that in the United States and underage The woman...is breaking the law and is likely to go to jail!"

At first, Zhao Lei didn't understand what Mark meant, but when his eyes fell on Yingzi, he realized that the ranch manager thought the Japanese girl was underage.

In fact, it is no wonder that Mark Weber would say that, Asians appear younger in the eyes of Westerners.What's more, Yingzi looks much younger than her actual age, almost like a junior high school student.Today she was dressed casually again, which added a bit of childishness to her. No wonder Mark Weber misunderstood her.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lei couldn't help laughing. He patted the farm manager on the shoulder and said, "Wei Bo, you made a mistake. Ms. Yingzi is 24 years old this year, and she is also the general manager of the fairy gourd seed company! I brought her here specially. , just to inspect the situation of the American experimental planting base.”

Mark Webb was shocked and said: "What? She is 24? She looks not much older than my daughter!"

Zhao Lei smiled and said, "Yakko just looks young, if you are worried, just ask her to show you the passport later."

Zhao Lei has already talked about this point, and Mark Weber is of course no longer worried, he quickly shook his head and said: "Then there is no need, the car is here, I will take you to have a look!"

The pickup truck moved slowly on the endless pasture, and it took more than half an hour before it came to a piece of black land.

This piece of land was obviously just turned over by a tractor not long ago, and there was no vegetation growing on it, it was a newly reclaimed grain field on the ranch.

Mark Webb took Zhao Lei and Yingzi to inspect the land, and introduced to them: "The total area of ​​this land is [-] hectares, and it is divided into two plots, which are used to grow wheat and corn respectively."

Zhao Lei asked Mark Weber: "How about the fertility and moisture content of the land?"

"I have invited experienced grain farmers to look at it. The fertility and moisture content of this land are similar to those of several large grain growers nearby." Mark Weber told Zhao Lei: "In this way, the growth and yield of wheat and corn will be better. persuasive."

Zhao Lei nodded in satisfaction and said, "You've done a good job. I've brought the grain seeds, and we'll officially sow them tomorrow!"

That night, Zhao Lei and Ying Zi spent the night in the small villa on the ranch. The Japanese girl was very satisfied with the environment of the ranch, and she was very relaxed when she was alone with Zhao Lei at night, which really made him enjoy the beauty.

But for Zhao Lei today, even if he works hard all night, he won't feel tired the next day.He got up early the next morning with Yingzi, and went to sow the two kinds of grains with the ranch workers.

In order to successfully complete the trial planting of wheat and corn, Mark Weber deliberately hired several experienced grain farmers.

These grain farmers skillfully drive tractors, driving back and forth in the newly reclaimed grain fields.The agricultural machinery hung behind the tractor automatically sows the grain seeds into the ground, fully mechanized production.This method of sowing is very efficient. In just half a day, all [-] hectares of land have been sown.

The person in charge of the trial planting area is a farmer named Fox. He is in his 40s and has been growing grain for nearly 30 years. He is the most experienced grain farmer in Columbus Town.

Mark Webber spent all his money and offered Fox a salary no lower than his own before convincing the food farmer to work on the ranch.

However, Fox didn't disappoint Zhao Lei. Even driving a tractor sows seeds faster than others.He took the lead in completing the sowing work he was in charge of, and jumped off the tractor and said to Zhao Lei: "Boss, the moisture content of the land is very good at present, and it is estimated that the wheat will germinate in a week. As for the corn, it may take longer, but I guess it will be fine." It won't take more than half a month."

Zhao Lei smiled and said: "Thank you for your hard work, as long as you work hard, I will never treat you badly."

"Haha, we all know that." Fox said with a smile: "Redstone Ranch treats the workers the same as in the entire Columbus Town... No, it should be the best in the state. We are very satisfied to be able to come and work here!"

Zhao Lei has always been generous to his subordinates, especially in terms of salary.Take the cowboys in Redstone Ranch as an example, the average wages are very high, plus there are generous year-end bonuses, the annual income is much higher than the senior white-collar workers of those big companies in Houston, no wonder Fox would say so Woolen cloth.

But after Fox laughed, he quickly frowned and said worriedly: "However...we have missed the best planting period, which is more than half a month later than the normal time. I am worried that this will affect the grain production."

This is what Zhao Lei is least worried about. He smiled and said to Fox, "You don't have to worry about it. Although it is true that we missed the farming season, it will not have any impact on our wheat and corn!"

In all honesty, Fox didn't quite believe Zhao Lei's words.Experienced farmers know that unless they grow their crops in a greenhouse, missing a crop can be a disaster.Light ones will cause crops to be vulnerable to pests and diseases, which will eventually affect the yield; heavy ones will lead to no harvest, and the whole year will be a waste of work.

Just by looking at Fox's expression, he knew that he didn't believe what he said, so Zhao Lei said with a smile: "How about we make a bet, whoever loses, please go to the bar for a drink!"

Fox stretched out his hand to Zhao Lei: "It's a deal!"

Zhao Lei also high-fived Fox: "It's a deal!"
