Chapter 53

A few people were taken aback by Qin Yi's words and asked, "Why are you asking this?"

It was the honest young man who spoke up first, "When I was a kid, our village had cows, I've seen them!"

I asked if you know how to herd cattle, what does seeing them have to do with it!

Qin Yi was speechless. Fortunately, the others all shook their heads, indicating clearly and simply that none of them knew how to ride horses or herd cattle.

Qin Yi wasn't surprised. Nowadays, in most rural areas of China, you hardly see cows or horses. Even soldiers, except for special forces and border guards in difficult areas, most probably don't know how to ride horses. He asked this just to lead into what he wanted to say next.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know. Actually, I want to introduce you to a job. You'll be herding cattle on a ranch every day. The salary is 10,000 RMB per month, with food and accommodation provided. Of course, this job requires you to go abroad. Think about it."

After saying this, Qin Yi didn't look at the four of them anymore, letting them discuss it among themselves.

Going abroad to a strange place with strangers requires a lot of courage. In fact, Qin Yi didn't have high hopes. He just thought they were good people and wanted to give them a chance. Whether they could seize it was up to them.

Sure enough, when the four of them heard this, they became a bit wary. A salary of 10,000 RMB with food and accommodation provided was indeed attractive, but who knew if they were human traffickers? How could they trust and follow them!

The four of them looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

"Um, can I go?"

Suddenly, the girl asked weakly. She had just graduated and needed a job. Although she had been tricked by Qin Yi because of the video, he didn't seem like a bad person. Most importantly, because of the video, staying in China might lead to her being recognized, which would be embarrassing. Even though she hadn't had any relationship with that scumbag, the public wouldn't think that way!

Xiangzi and the others found it unbelievable. In the short time they had been there, the four of them knew that the girl and Qin Yi had just met. She wanted to run off to a foreign country with him?

They couldn't tell if she was brave or foolish!

Qin Yi was also taken aback by her question. He had never thought about this. A soft girl like her wouldn't be able to do the job of a cowboy. Not every girl was like Raquel, who had grown up doing farm work.

But indeed, he had pushed her into a difficult situation, and he should help her out.

"What do you do now?"

"I just graduated... I studied tourism management." The girl was a bit nervous but also hopeful.

Tourism management. Qin Yi rubbed his nose, thinking for a long time but couldn't figure out what she could do on a ranch. Should he turn his ranch into a tourist attraction? That would be crazy!

But how could he arrange a job for her otherwise?

After thinking for a while, Qin Yi still couldn't come up with anything and could only shrug helplessly at the girl, "My ranch is for raising cattle, we don't need tourism management..."

The girl became a bit anxious, "Ranches can be tourist attractions too. Nowadays, many ranches abroad are doing tourism, like small farms in the U.S. that offer agritourism. Otherwise, small farms in this era wouldn't have any room to survive!"

Qin Yi looked at the girl in surprise, not expecting her to say such a professional-sounding thing. But since she studied tourism management, it made sense.

Suddenly, he realized they hadn't introduced themselves yet. Qin Yi felt a bit embarrassed. They had stood together for a while and even ganged up on the idiot, but he hadn't thought to ask her name!

"Um, what's your name?"

The girl was delighted when Qin Yi asked her name. Did this mean he recognized her suggestion? "Liu Qimeng. I know you, Qin Yi. I saw you on ** earlier."

Qin Yi rubbed his nose awkwardly, changing the subject, "Well, Liu Qimeng, what you said makes some sense, but I still need to make a call to check."

Liu Qimeng didn't mind. She wasn't just making it up; he could ask anyone!

Qin Yi thought that Ryan, who had been a cowboy all his life, would be familiar with these things. He dialed the number, "Ryan, it's Yi."

"Ha, Yi, are you coming back? The guys miss you, and of course, so does Little Black!" As Ryan said this, the familiar neighing of a horse could be heard, making Qin Yi happy.

"Ha, if there are no surprises, I'll be home tomorrow night. By the way, Ryan, you know a lot about ranches. Are small farms now doing agritourism?"

"Yes, Yi. The operating costs of small farms are too high, and agritourism can save a lot of labor while bringing in income from accommodation, experiencing ranch life, and other aspects. Now, agritourism accounts for a third of their total income."

Ryan gave a brief introduction, as the phone wasn't the best place for such discussions.

Hearing this, Qin Yi thought of Susa's small farm. He wondered how she had managed it alone over the past two years.

He declined Ryan's offer to pick him up and hung up, looking at Liu Qimeng. She was also looking at him nervously. She had understood the English call and knew the result was about to come.

"Alright, I can give you a 1000-acre small farm to manage. If it works out well, your income will be good too."

"1000 acres? Really give it to me? Is it your farm?" Liu Qimeng was incredulous, staring at Qin Yi to make sure she hadn't misunderstood.

"Of course." Qin Yi was a bit bored. He needed to sleep; he had a flight tomorrow. "The farm belongs to my neighbor. It's currently just growing crops. I'll talk to her when I get back to the U.S., and it should be fine."

Qin Yi had his own calculations. Susa managing the farm alone was too much for her. Otherwise, why wouldn't she do agritourism, which accounted for a third of her income? Angel was still young, and there would be many expenses in the future.

If Liu Qimeng managed the small farm, he could bring Susa to the ranch to manage the finances. She was a top accounting student, so it should be fine. This way, he wouldn't need to find someone else and could often take Angel out to play. Hehe, it was a win-win situation, and he was quite proud of his intelligence.

Qin Yi was secretly pleased, while Liu Qimeng's joy was evident.

She knew that although her suggestion about agritourism was correct, Qin Yi didn't necessarily need her to do it. Now that it was in her hands, she was pleasantly surprised.

Moreover, from what Qin Yi said, the 1000-acre farm would be entirely her responsibility, from planning to construction to operation. As a recent graduate, getting such an opportunity would make her classmates envious!

It seemed her luck wasn't too bad today. Although she had encountered a scumbag, she had also met a good guy!

The two strangers had agreed to work abroad in just a few minutes, leaving Xiangzi and the others speechless. What was going on? This girl seemed well-educated, but how could she be so naive, following someone like this? If she was sold, she wouldn't even have a place to cry!

Qin Yi looked at Xiangzi and the others but didn't say more. He had given them the opportunity; whether they seized it was up to them. "That's it for today. Xiangzi, take this scumbag back. It's very late, almost 1 AM. Time to sleep!"

He went back into the house, and Liu Qimeng followed. Qin Yi didn't stop her, thinking about how to get her to the U.S. "Do you have a U.S. visa?"

Liu Qimeng was taken aback, "I have a tourist visa..." She looked at Qin Yi hopefully, wishing he could help her apply for a work visa once she was in the U.S. She didn't want to stay in China any longer; otherwise, she wouldn't dare go out from tomorrow on...

"That's fine. As long as you can leave immediately." He had pushed her into a difficult situation, so he had to help her out. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to sleep. It was the middle of the night, and he didn't know if he could get a ticket.

When in trouble, call Ye Fang. Moreover, the video incident was partly his fault. If he hadn't recognized the trendy guy as Liu Yifei's boyfriend, none of this would have happened!

Well, Qin Yi admitted that he had also wanted to upload the video. Liu Yifei was quite beautiful, and seeing a beautiful woman about to fall into a trap, how could he, a good young man of the new era, just stand by and watch?

He just hadn't considered that saving one person would harm another...

He called Ye Fang, who answered groggily, "Yi, what's up? It's the middle of the night?"

"Can you get a ticket to Los Angeles for tomorrow? Preferably on the same flight as me." Qin Yi didn't beat around the bush, wanting to solve the problem and go to sleep. He yawned, feeling sleepy.

Liu Qimeng stood next to him, listening intently, hoping for good news.

"Ticket..." There was the sound of him getting up, then the sound of slippers shuffling on the floor. "Oh, send me your flight number, and I'll check."

Qin Yi hung up and sent the flight number, then sat on the sofa with Liu Qimeng, waiting. Soon, Ye Fang called back, sounding more awake, "I've reserved a first-class seat for you. Who are you taking to the U.S.?"

"The girl in the video. Bring the ticket to me tomorrow morning!" Qin Yi hung up. Liu Qimeng was relieved, knowing the ticket was secured and she could leave the country the next day, avoiding the public attention in China!

In fact, Qin Yi was intentionally scaring Ye Fang. The guy had tricked him by uploading the video. Now, he wanted to tell him that the girl in the video knew everything and might come to settle the score tomorrow. This would definitely make him scared to come.

Sure enough, a minute later, a text message came, saying he had something to do tomorrow morning and couldn't come. He could just pick up the ticket. Qin Yi felt much better, considering this a small revenge for being tricked.

"Tomorrow morning to Los Angeles. What about your visa? Not going home to get it?"

Liu Qimeng thought for a moment and decided not to go back. She would have her mother bring it to her and explain the situation.

Qin Yi didn't care, leaving the room to him and lying on the sofa to sleep.

Liu Qimeng called her mother, who rushed over half an hour later with a large bag. She looked at Qin Yi, who was sleeping on the sofa, and then at her daughter's slightly swollen face, becoming anxious. She thought Qin Yi had bullied her daughter and almost slapped him if Liu Qimeng hadn't stopped her.

Liu Qimeng quickly explained and led her mother to the bedroom.
