Chapter 74: daughter? ?

"Is there nothing else to talk about between us besides money? I remember that when you were a child, you liked to play at the ranch where I worked. At that time, you could also ride horses and catch sheep... " Hearing the woman's words, Burke-Dahler laughed at himself, and then muttered quietly as if he was talking to the woman or himself.

"Don't say it, you know, that was when I was a child. Now that I have grown up, I also have my own life, and the most basic thing to live is money. I don't want to be like you. We are so poor that we can't even pay the alimony after the divorce." However, the girl was even more determined and did not give Burke-Dahle a chance to finish her words. She waved her hand and shouted loudly. When she heard her Burke-Dahler on the opposite side couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then the self-deprecating expression on his face became even heavier.

"Who says he will always be poor? People who work in my manor may not have less income than Moses Adams sitting in the house." After hearing this, Jiang Hai finally couldn't help it. Although he He didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but he felt that this was the time for him, the boss, to take action. However, Burke-Dahler's income was indeed not too much now.

The income of seven hundred and fifty US dollars per week, which is equivalent to thirty-nine thousand US dollars in a year, is not even as good as the middle class of the American emperor. Don't forget that Jiang Hai's welfare has not been taken into account. Including water, electricity, Internet, food, drink, and accommodation here, he doesn't need to spend any money. All of this money adds up to about 10,000 US dollars.

The most important thing is that the above thirty-nine thousand US dollars are dead wages. When Jiang Hai's cattle make money, according to the situation of the American emperor, they will naturally pay dividends. The amount of dividends depends on the mood of the manor owner. Come and share, but if they really make more than a billion for themselves, then Jiang Hai will not be stingy with the one million or so. By then, if these people just come to share this money, they will not be able to earn more than one hundred thousand per person. After all, plus the basic salary, making two hundred thousand dollars a year is not a big deal.

The most important thing is that these money can be saved. It is precisely because they see such a prospect that the reason why these talents work so hard. Even when Jiang Hai is not watching them, they still work so hard for the sake of success. What? Of course it’s for this real money! So now after Jiang Hai heard this, he immediately stood up and refuted this woman.

But after standing up, Jiang Hao regretted it, because he was really embarrassed at this time.

"I'm sorry." Seeing Jiang Hai standing there, the father and daughter were obviously stunned for a moment. Then the girl named Penelope lowered her head and walked past Jiang Hai. As for Uncle Ke-Dal sighed and walked to Jiang Hai's side. Then the two men looked at each other and walked to the door of the villa.

Sitting there, with the cold wind blowing, Burke-Dahle told Jiang Hai a story... to be precise, it was his true incident.

Burke-Dahler is an old cowboy. I have said this before, but he learned the skills of cowboys when he was very young, and then began to become a cowboy. At the end of the twentieth century, the cowboy industry was actually quite advanced. Popular.

Especially in the east, he made some serious money in those years. Later, like most ranchers, he got a piece of land and built a ranch. However, due to poor investment, he went bankrupt in 2003. .

It was also that year that his wife divorced him with their daughter, and he lived a life of being a bachelor and paying off debts.

It took him five years to work and pay off his debts, but then came the financial crisis. It was difficult for him to support himself by working as a cowboy, let alone doing anything else. At that time, his daughter also went to school. He went to college, but unfortunately, as a father, he couldn't afford a penny for his daughter to go to college.

Since then, his wife and daughter, who were already somewhat distant from him, have become increasingly distant from him.

They believed that Burke-Dahle would be like this in his life and had no future. Compared to Burke-Dahle's wife's money worship, his daughter might just have a mentality of hating iron for not being able to become steel. However, after all, they had been taught since childhood. Burke-Dahle's ex-wife has been instilling the idea that there is no money to be made as a cowboy, which has made her increasingly cold towards her father.

Listening to Burke-Dahler's words, although there were some one-sided remarks, Jiang Hai still touched his chin.

Burke-Dahle does not hate his ex-wife because he knows that everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness.

Since she thinks she can't find happiness here, let her go. I heard that she is now in New York, married to a financier, and her life is pretty good. At least in terms of material things, she is better than what she had with him before. Much happier times.

So Burke-Dahler didn't say much, but his daughter's words made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, I don't know if being a cowboy will make money, but I know that as long as you follow me, at least you don't have to worry about making money." After Burke-Dahle finished speaking, Jiang Hai was silent After a moment, he stood up, returned to the house, quietly took out two bottles of beer and walked out, handed one to Burke-Dahler, then took a big sip himself, took a deep breath, Jiang Hai faced Burke-Dale Ke-Dal said that he did not have confidence in himself, but in his own blood!

"Then I'll put my money on you, boss." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, he didn't know if it was because the cow he killed today gave Burke-Dale confidence, and he also laughed. Said to Jiang Hai.

When the two said this, they couldn't help but smile at each other, and then started drinking again...

Generally speaking, the dinner party that night was a good time for the guests and the host. As the time came to about ten o'clock in the evening, the dinner was officially dismissed. The driver drove the car and said a silent thank you for his kindness. After Rees-Smith was sent back to Winthrop, he returned to Boston, but before leaving, Jiang Hai told Moses Adams about paying taxes here.

However, for Moses Adams, he is a professional lawyer, not a professional accountant. However, lawyers and accountants have a close relationship, so he has a way to contact the accountant to calculate the taxes he has to pay for Jiang Hai.

But it's still very early before he has to pay taxes. The tax filing time is in April every year, and it's only November now.

Waiting until March next year to prepare your tax return will be in time.

Jiang Hai is talking to him now just to mention it. After all, these things are very important.

After today's dinner, Jiang Hai's manor has now entered a peaceful life. Of course, this so-called tranquility is only on the surface. Everyone's life is very dull every day, but it is very fulfilling. .

What Jiang Hai has to do every day is very simple. He gets up every morning, goes for a run, and then has breakfast. In the morning, he practices the fighting skills that Bell taught him. Then he goes to have lunch. In the afternoon, he either watches a basketball game at home, or Play games, or lie down on the balcony on the second floor, read novels, surf the Internet, and then have dinner in the evening. After dinner, later, use the extra blood in your body to Renovate the pasture in the manor. Under Jiang Hai's slow transformation, the current pasture in the manor has finally been renovated. Anyway, he doesn't have many friends in this country, so it's quite good to do this every day.

What Edward Anderson has to do every day is to drive an open boat and go around the open sea to see if anyone has stolen Jiang Hai's fish or something like that. Of course, every once in a while, they will go out to catch a boat together. The fish are back, but these fish are not for sale, but for eating, just like the beef cattle in Jiang Hai Manor, now is not the time to sell them.

At the same time, Edward is doing this to prepare for raising fish here next year, or the day after tomorrow. He first needs to know where there is no coral and where it can be better fished. Jiang Hai doesn't understand these, so he can only rely on him. .

Sometimes Philemon or Bell will go to help him, and Jiang Hai will naturally help him. When we go to sea together, it is much easier to have a companion. As for the lobster that Jiang Hai wants to eat, he has not been able to eat it. I don’t believe it. The weather is too cold now. Going into the water to touch lobsters is really a happy thing. And Jiang Hai doesn’t want to expose too much of his abilities in front of the other party, so he has never eaten them. But in beef , and fish, as well as countless shrimps and crabs, the problem of lobster can be postponed for the time being.

The ones with the most troubles are cowboys like Robbins, but they feel very happy now. What these people have to do every day is to drive the cattle and sheep out of the cowshed and take a spin outside. Then we rushed back before dark. As the weather got colder and colder, in fact, the cattle in other nearby estates were already ready to start fattening.

However, Robins and others still drove a circle of cattle with the help of cattle dogs every day, mainly because the pasture in Jiang Hai Manor did not die on a large scale due to the arrival of winter, which made Robin Si and others were surprised and at the same time very happy. After all, dry grass is not as nutritious as fresh grass. These grasses nourished by Jiang Hai's blood can be said to be the most nutritious grass in the world, even except for In addition to eating grass, these cattle do not need too much concentrated feed to grow stronger and stronger. These things are seen in the eyes of Robbins and others, and they are also happy in their hearts.

Every day they were thinking that if these cows looked like the cows that were killed that day, then the manor would make a lot of money, and with Jiang Hai's generosity, he probably wouldn't let them down.

No one would have any resistance to the green and beautiful sword, at least no one in Jiang Hai Manor would feel this way at the moment. And unknowingly, time is passing slowly, and Jiang Hai Manor is undergoing renovation. The inland aspect of the plan is finally complete.

Not only has he renovated all the pastures, but he has also renovated the vegetable garden over there. It is obvious that the vegetables he has eaten recently taste much better than before. But after all, it is already winter, but Jiang Hai estimates , when he plants it again next year, the taste of this thing will be better. This is also his confidence in his own blood.

In such a leisurely life, the first heavy snow of the year also came quietly.
