Yunding Ranch

Chapter 342 Busy Morning
When Lu Li woke up, the room was still dark and there was almost no light to be seen. He picked up the alarm clock by the bed and glanced at it, and found that it was only [-]:[-]. time.

It was two hours before his usual wake-up time—an hour and a half at least, and his whole head felt groggy and unable to function.So, Lu Li closed his eyes again, allowing his tense and hot brain to return to relaxation mode, and his constricted breathing slowed down again.

Although there is still some time before dawn, the pasture outside the window has already woken up, and Cole's voice can be heard faintly calling, "Grapefruit, grapes, come here quickly", that thick voice is like a knife piercing through the ice-cold lake. Ships, the sound of hunting wind and the sound of rushing water passed by, and the thick night began to ripple out.

Immediately afterwards, a whimpering sound could be heard, only fragmented sounds, it should be that Brandon, Jessica, Tony and others were talking.

The hustle and bustle in the tranquility burst out with vitality, wonderful and vivid, as if you could feel the process of the slow recovery of all things, in a trance, the call from nature began to flow quickly in the blood.

So, Lu Li opened his eyes again, sat up slowly, stretched his waist, and Bucky, who was sleeping on the bed, stood up cleverly, then walked around nervously, looked up He looked at Lu Li, then looked at the dense night surroundings, and finally turned around again, curled up next to the pillow into a ball of hair.

Leaving the bed and coming to the window, you can see the dark sky and the dark pastures. This is not a familiar sight. The blue and green seem to have disappeared, leaving only Large expanses of black are like thick ink; however, the pure black has different layers, laid out in depth and shallow, like a Chinese ink painting, but the pure ink color outlines an unimaginable grandeur and exquisite.

Unexpectedly, Lu Li liked this kind of ranch.In the silence, there is peace, but the undercurrent hidden in the darkness is silently surging.

Today is the day when the second half of the cowboy conference is held, and it is also the day when Yunding Ranch officially enters the market. After more than half a year of operation and brewing, the ranch is finally going to enter the profit model.

This is an important day.In order to set up the booth and welcome the guests, the ranch naturally couldn’t wait until eight or nine o’clock to slowly go to the town of Bandera. The holiday mode is no longer applicable. They must arrive at the site before 06:30 and start working Prepare.

After a quick shower, Teddy greeted him when he came downstairs. Lu Li patted the old man's head, and from the corner of his vision, he saw a pile of crumbled confetti on the stairs, "This time , whose files have suffered?" As for Teddy's fondness for biting files, Lu Li had accepted it calmly, and he had already learned to put away all the files.

Leaning down, he picked up the pieces and looked at them. Lu Li couldn't help laughing, "Randy probably fainted in the toilet."

This document belongs to Randy. He wrote it specially for today's exhibition. It counts the types and quantities of various vegetables, as well as market prices and stocks, etc.It took Randy hours to make it, but now Teddy has bitten it into pieces and it's completely reduced to a pile of shredded paper.

Not sure if Randy left a backup.

Lu Li quickly swept up the scraps of paper and threw them into the trash can. Then he came to the restaurant and simply filled his stomach with toast and fried eggs. It took less than 5 minutes from beginning to end.Teddy just squatted at Lu Li's feet, wagging his tail obediently, didn't beg for food, didn't make any noise, just quietly waited beside him.

Lu Li couldn't help laughing, "Keer is probably going to be sad again when he sees it. Why didn't you go out with Yuzu and Grape today?"

Lu Li wasn't the type that was popular with animals, even when he came to the ranch, he was still the same.But between him and Teddy, it seems that a bond has been established, and the two get along very easily and happily, even Teddy likes Lu Li more than Cole.You know, Cole is the one who has lived on the ranch for many years. After Liz left, Cole has been taking care of Teddy.

Originally, Lu Li thought it was his own illusion, but now it seems that it is a certainty.

Teddy narrowed his eyes, as if he was enjoying Lu Li's touch, and there was a purring sound from the corner of his mouth.At this time, Bucky just came down, passed by Shi Shiran, saw this scene, and then jumped onto the table in a few steps, and patrolled the side like a demonstration, with an unpredictable expression that looked like contempt, but also Like disdain.

Lu Li patted Teddy's head lightly, "Did you see that? Bucky is complaining about you." After speaking, Lu Li couldn't help laughing, stood up, quickly put away the dinner plate, and cleaned it up. After that, he quickly left the main house.

Standing outdoors, the cool air still has the chill of dew, rushing into the lungs, and the whole person is immediately refreshed, and the last trace of sleepiness deep in the brain has disappeared.Lu Li couldn't help but stretched a lot. He could hear his joints cracking like chestnuts, and his whole body became relaxed and full of vitality.

"Wow, woof, woof." There was a lively roar in the distance, and then Jessica's dumbfounding shout could be heard, "Tiao Tiao, hey, Tiao Tiao, don't provoke Hulk."

"Wow, woof, woof!" The shouts became more and more violent, echoing under the dark blue sky, as if they were calling for the dawn to appear.

He walked towards the warehouse, and then Lu Li realized that Teddy followed him, and Bucky was wandering in the garden like a king inspecting his own territory, which made Lu Li laugh dumbfounded, "Bucky, Are you sure you don't want to follow?"

"Meow", Bucky yelled in disgust, then lightly jumped onto the swing, climbed up the sycamore tree, and then curled up on the branch of the tree, looking down at the bustling and busy scene below, the king is now He began to examine the daily life of his subjects again.

Lu Li chuckled lightly, and walked towards the warehouse without stopping. He could see the roaring Hulk in a moment, and Tiao Tiao was standing on his head, firmly grasping the Hulk with his two front paws. The hair on the top of Hulk's head.

Hulk was jumping, and Tiao Tiao was bumping, his appearance actually looked a bit like a matador, this sense of absurdity made Lu Li smile.

"What's wrong with him?" Jessica looked at Lu Li and asked in disbelief.

Lu Li shrugged, "Because Teddy has accepted the reality, there is no challenge."

Li Yitong has already gone to Los Angeles, and Hulk stayed on the ranch, gradually adapting to life here.Surprisingly, Hulk and Jump get along best, they have a tacit understanding with each other, Hulk seems to be more willing to get along with Jump than Grapefruit and Grape.

Now, Tiaotiao has started to make progress, and that smug little appearance really makes people laugh, but it also makes people feel helpless.

"Aren't you going to persuade?" Jessica stared, Lu Li spread his hands, "I should be the worst choice to solve this matter."

After a short pause, Lu Li's head flashed, and he shouted, "Bucky!"

He just yelled like this, and he could see that Tiaotiao instantly let go of his hands, and then he threw it out with the momentum of inertia, then landed on all fours, and ran out briskly, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Hulk's reaction was a little sluggish, he didn't have time to stop, and went around several times, then stopped turning, looked up, down, left, and right, but found no jumping figure, then squatted on the spot, and started to use his front paws Wiping his nose, I don't know if it was because he was tired from running just now.

Seeing this scene, Jessica and Lu Li were stunned for a moment, and after a moment's pause, they burst out laughing.The law of the food chain in nature is indeed universal, and it is the same in any field, one thing drops one thing, forming a complete circle.

"Teddy, aren't you going to say something? You are the boss of this ranch." Jessica raised her voice, and Lu Li patted Teddy's head, "Dude, aren't you going to say something?"

Teddy didn't understand at all, turned his head, sniffed Lu Li's palm with his nose, and then started to lick it.That silly look made Lu Li and Jessica laugh again.

"Hey, you two, if you don't come to help, we'll be late." Randy's voice came from behind, Lu Li turned his head, and then saw Randy carrying two big baskets.

All of these vegetables were harvested yesterday, and they only guarantee the trading volume for today.As for tomorrow, it will be harvested after returning from work this afternoon, and the booth will be closed at [-] pm.

Since this was their first time at the booth, they had no idea of ​​the market's reaction and could only make preparations based on Randy's estimate.To keep the vegetables fresh, Randy prepares them to the bare minimum.But even then, they'd need three pickup trucks -- not vans -- to make the trip.

"If you can't make it, then you can only pray that there will be more people in the afternoon." Lu Li, who is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, said calmly, causing Randy to roll his eyes, and then Brandon and Cole The two also came out, and Lu Li rubbed the back of Teddy's neck, "But Randy is right, we need to start working. Dude, let's go."

Lu Li stepped forward and began to join in the busy work.First vegetables, then cheese, and finally wine, the ranch dispatched four pickup trucks to load all the goods.

In May, Jessica stayed at the ranch; this time, Brandon volunteered to stay—after all, he was worried about the thoroughbreds who had just joined the ranch.

Then, under the leadership of Lu Li, the expedition team marched towards the small town of Bandera.
