In fact, when Liu Heming first came to the United States, people like George couldn't tell the difference between Huaxia stew and soup.In their perception at the time, it was actually pretty much the same.

Now that they have been around for a long time and have eaten a lot, they can distinguish carefully.Each person served a large bowl of crab stewed pumpkin, tasted a bite, the taste is really unique.

There is the sweetness of pumpkin and the umami of crab, and the combination of these two flavors has a different kind of deliciousness.Anyway, George likes to eat very much. He didn't care about the heat of a big bowl, and he ate it up in a while.Even the crab inside, even if it had been stewed to taste, George didn't let it go.

"It seems that everyone quite likes this dish." Liu Heming joked with a smile.

"We used to eat pumpkin, mostly as stuffing. I didn't expect to be able to eat it like this. Do I have to cook it with crab?" George asked.

Liu Heming shook his head with a smile, "That's not the case, as long as some seafood is added, the taste will be much better. Whether it's crabs, shrimps or dried oysters, it's fine."

"When I was at home, I often ate it, but here I ate less. But these pumpkins are good food, which can help maintain blood sugar. These pumpkin pies are also very tasty, without adding any sugar, but Very sweet."

"Father, I've already eaten two yuan." Xiao Nao Nao next to him raised his hands and showed off his victory.

"You, your appetite will be bad one day. Let's eat the bones and compete with your sister." Lao Liu said, and put the big bones in the sauce on Xiao Nao Nao's plate.

Xiao Nao Nao is very serious, he has prepared for a long time for the bones tonight.That is what must be eaten as much as possible, and try to catch up with my sister's appetite.

The two little guys are very bold in eating.But the big guy didn't think there was anything wrong with it, or didn't pay attention to table manners or anything.

Such a big bone, you have to hold it and chew it, it tastes the best.Slowly use a knife to scrape off all the meat on it?Those bones are boring to eat.

"Dexter, will the newly built hotels this year be put into use by the end of the year?" Lewis asked after eating for a while.

Liu Heming nodded, "Isn't it because you are worried that your customers will be taken away?"

"Haha, Dexter, I'm not worried about this at all." Lewis said with a smile.

"There are too many tourists coming to Xiangshui Town. The most depressing thing for me now is that many people call to book a room every day, but there is no room available."

"Our hotel has a good location, and the charges are one level lower than theirs. So for many tourists, our hotel is their first choice."

"If you hadn't left us such a good location, I'm afraid it would be really difficult for our hotel to compete with those big brands. Running a hotel requires a lot more worry than running a motel."

"The point is, it depends on yourselves." Liu Heming shook his head with a smile.

"Hotels can be regarded as a typical example of the service industry. The hardware facilities are actually that, the key is to look at the software services. I was worried before, fearing that you would lose money. Now it's fine, and I can collect rent with peace of mind."

"Dexter, next year our rent will be increased by 20% according to the town's standard." Lewis said seriously.

"Uh... I was just joking just now, and I didn't intend to raise your rent." Liu Heming said with a wry smile.

"Haha, Dexter, even if you don't raise my rent, I will raise it myself." Lewis said with a big laugh.

"In these years, I have maintained the original rent standard. That is to say, I have a thicker skin, otherwise I would be shy when I came to play with you."

"In the past, there was really no way. Although you gave me a lot of help and I made some money, it was all used in the maintenance and operation of the hotel."

"It's fine now. We finally have experience and can reduce a lot of unnecessary expenses. All the money has been paid off."

"So, this time, Daisy and I decided that we must demand ourselves according to the normal business standards in the town, and we can't continue to take advantage of you. Otherwise, our business will really be difficult to continue."

Liu Heming shook his head with a smile, "Why am I stopping you? It's the first time I've encountered a business owner asking for a rent increase. I'm too happy. Let's eat more. Uncle Lewis's rent is enough for us to buy a lot of food." Big bones."

"Well, Dad, I'll try my best to eat." Xiao Nao Nao replied without raising his head.

"That is to say, Xiao Nao Nao usually likes to exercise more, otherwise I am really worried that you will make me a chubby little boy." Su Rong said helplessly.

"Haha, our children don't know how to do it." Liu Heming got Alex some pork elbow with skin on.

"They all like to exercise. Don't look at how much they usually eat, it's good to be able to maintain their daily exercise. Where is the remaining energy accumulated in the body?"

"Not to mention Alex, but Xiao Nao Nao's daily activity is more than [-] steps. The distance is a little hard to count, and occasionally he will find some small animals to walk him."

It can be said that the least worry about his two children is health problems.These two little guys have very strong bodies.

Although occasionally there will be some minor problems, such as Xiao Nao Nao's diarrhea some time ago.That's something that can't be helped, who made this little guy greedy for cold.

And with the lessons learned this time, I reckon that I will pay more attention to it in the future.Alex is very worry-free, and has not worried about this aspect until now.

The big guys come to Lao Liu's place every day to join in the fun, for this year's bumper harvest, and it can be regarded as a rare small gathering for everyone every year.During Christmas and Spring Festival, we can also get together, but at that time, whether it is in the ranch or in the town, there are programs, and everyone is relatively busy.

It’s different now. For the ranch and the town, it’s more or less off-season.That's why the big guys can find time to come together and have a serious gathering.

There are not many old townspeople in Xiangshui Town, George and the others are the ones who can come to Lao Liu's place to play freely.This is because the usual relationship is here, and I know Liu Heming very well, so I didn't treat him as an outsider.

A sumptuous dinner ends with a beggar turkey.Anyway, Lao Liu had had enough, but George and the others liked it very much.

The big bone that Xiao Nao Nao was responsible for finally fell into Lao Liu's stomach.The little guy has really worked hard, but the enemy is too strong.

"Dexter, now that your business has really started, do you have any ideas for the next step?" George asked while sitting on the porch drinking beer.

Liu Heming shook his head with a smile, "I'm just taking care of all the things I'm dealing with right now. I don't know when it will be. I don't have any other thoughts for the time being."

"After the rent increase in the town next year, we will keep it for two years to see the situation. Although we don't have to worry about renting out, we have to leave enough profits for these merchants."

"If there are ideas, there are some. But that is the cooperation with the Montana government. I hope they can develop the surrounding towns and counties. Otherwise, the number of tourists we can accommodate here will not be long. will enter a bottleneck period."

"Would you like to talk to Ball?" Lewis asked curiously.

"I won't go through him this time. Now he has more scruples, and we can talk to the Montana government in an open and aboveboard manner this time." Liu Heming said.

"Because Xiangshui Town belongs to me, we also need our cooperation in the construction of the transportation network. This requires a lot of money, and it depends on whether the Montana government wants to develop here."

"This is a well-known poverty-stricken county in Montana. If they have the intention, they will develop it. If they don't have that intention, I can't help it."

"By the way, Anderson, when do Rebecca and Locke plan to get married? Will they choose to be at Locke's house or our ranch?"

"In the first half of next year, I will go to Locke's house." Anderson said happily.

Seeing Anderson's appearance, everyone became happy.

"What's so funny, I'm just very satisfied with Locke." Anderson gave everyone a blank look, a little depressed.

This group of people is just so annoying.I always want to find something to bully myself, is it easy for me?

"I'm just waiting for your invitation. When the time comes, let's go there together and have a good celebration." Liu Heming said with a smile.

"When the time comes, you won't torture Locke severely, will you?" Anderson asked with some concern.

It's too funny for everyone.At the beginning, Anderson felt like his granddaughter was being snatched away.Now, instead, I worry about Locke.

It is enough to prove that in Anderson's heart, Locke has been regarded as a family.Otherwise, with his personality, he would have to save up a big guy to separate the two children.

For everyone's teasing, Anderson is very calm.If he cared about this, his original small shop would not be able to open.

Chatting happily, the moon also crawled out.George and the others had enough to eat, drink and rest, so they took their leave and left.

To be honest, Lao Liu is usually a little lonely at home.With George and the others chatting and farting, even he felt that the time passed so quickly.

The two children don't need them to care about them at all now. They will wash up and go to bed when they see that the time is almost up.Is Alex the benchmark of Xiao Nao Nao? Alex has to get up early to go to school tomorrow and go to bed early every day.

This can be regarded as something that Lao Liu can be proud of. The two children are so good that they don't have to worry about it at all.
