Chapter 22

Li Han came to the pond and caught some fish and shrimp, preparing to make a soup for lunch. The fish were plump and the crabs were full, making the soup of fish, shrimp, and crabs particularly delicious and unforgettable.

"Kylie, I'm at the farm, come over." After resting for a while, he brewed a pot of green tea, sat on the balcony to enjoy the nice sunshine, with high clouds and a vast sky. It was rare to not be busy with money, until the phone rang. Li Han lazily stretched, moved to the sofa, and answered the phone.

Guests arrived, and Li Han ground some coffee, brewed it, and prepared to entertain Kylie and Pierre. It was quite coincidental. Just as Li Han finished brewing the coffee, the car arrived. Not only Kylie and Pierre, but also Will and Kade came on their motorcycles.

Li Han invited them into the house, poured coffee from the pot, and asked everyone to have some. "Han, I think a beer would be better. Kade, what do you think of this idea?" Will nudged Kade, and of course, beer was more satisfying than coffee. "Of course, it's a great idea, Will," Kade said.

"Pierre, I don't recommend it." Li Han put down the coffee pot, opened the fridge, and took out a few bottles of beer, handing them to Will and Kade. Kylie and Pierre shook their heads. "Han, these documents need your signature."

"Sure, Pierre, is this okay?" Li Han read the contract carefully, as it was very important. After signing, he handed it to Pierre. "Yes, Han, now we can install it."

"Pierre, I'll take you there." Li Han told Kylie, and Will and Kade followed closely, not forgetting to carry the beer. The beer equipment had several parts, and Li Han planned to install it in the small warehouse behind the small building. The small beer equipment was just the right size. The filtration equipment was installed in the small building, so fresh beer could be enjoyed directly inside. Li Han intended to tell Pierre, and they started working.

The water for the beer was from the windmill well, and Pierre tested the water quality, which was good and met drinking standards. Li Han and Will, Kade were quite curious about the beer equipment. Unlike the old equipment, the new one was much more modern, and Will and Kade were very envious of Li Han.

"Really makes me jealous, Han, you have such a large farm and a brewery."

"Will, maybe you can be my taster. What do you think?" Li Han patted Will's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Oh, thank God, Han, this is great, you're my best friend." Will hugged Li Han with both hands, almost knocking the breath out of him. This guy had grown up on the farm and had quite a bit of strength.

"Han, we're the best morning brothers, right, Will?" Kade didn't want to fall behind. Free beer, after all, Kade and Will's salaries were not high, less than a thousand dollars a month, and they needed to invite girls, attend parties, and buy some necessities, leaving little left over.

"No problem, Kade." Li Han said with a smile.

"Han, you're a good person." Kade was very excited. Beer was a good thing, and free beer would make Will and Kade very envious. They promised to help Li Han buy barley and hops as soon as possible, and even offered to plant some barley for free, of course, with beer included.

"Will, Kade, I think we should brew delicious beer as soon as possible. The first barrel of beer on the farm, I think it will taste great. Will, Kade, do you want a glass?" Li Han watched the busy workers as the equipment was installed piece by piece. He could almost see the barrels of beer foaming, the aroma spreading.

"Of course, oh, it sounds delicious, Han, I can't wait." Will waved his hands, and Kade was equally excited.

"Han, I think it won't be long, the first barrel of beer, it will be delicious."

Will and Kade, along with Li Han, stood by the side, watching the equipment being moved and installed. After a while, Kylie came over, and the three of them talked to Pierre and returned to the living room. "Han, the four-wheeled motorcycles have been delivered, along with the harvester and tractor. I think you need to confirm them again. The manufacturer will send someone over tomorrow."

"No problem, Kylie. I'll write a check in time. Another cup of coffee?" Li Han sat opposite Kylie, poured some coffee for her from the pot. "Thanks, Han." "Will, Kade, do you want a cup of coffee?"

"No, we prefer beer." The two raised their beer bottles, drank a cup of coffee, and Li Han got up and followed Kade outside. Four black off-road motorcycles were lined up. Kylie and Kade started them one by one, showing Li Han. Li Han tried them out, found no issues, and signed for them. The transaction was complete, and Kylie would handle the paperwork.

"Thanks, Han." Kylie took the signing book from Li Han. Five four-wheeled motorcycles, Kylie made a small profit. "Kylie, when you have time, I'd like to ask you to help me repair the old plane left by George. Maybe it can fly again."

"No problem, Han. I'll let you know. Maybe I'll have time before the football game next week." Kylie and Kade left, and Kade was a bit disappointed not to have tasted Li Han's Chinese cuisine. Will didn't stay long, planning to go to the Marbury family, where there was still a lot of barley in the warehouse. Installing and testing the equipment would take more than a day, so Li Han and Pierre discussed it, and Li Han took the fish and shrimp, riding the four-wheeled motorcycle back to George's farm.

On the way, he met Hutton riding a four-wheeled motorcycle back from the pasture. Li Han greeted Hutton. "Han, I think I need to talk to you. The pasture situation is not good," Hutton's face was not good.

"Okay, I've seen the pasture, it's not bad. Hutton, what do you want to say?" When Li Han bought the farm, he had seen the pasture, which was good, with very fertile land.

"Han, I think we need to talk to our neighbors. Damn it." Hutton was a steady cowboy, rarely like this.

"Hutton, I want to know what's wrong with the pasture?" Li Han realized the problem might be serious.

"Han, our neighbors are causing a lot of trouble. Damn Hollywood, damn Wall Street, damn Texas oil fields, damn federal government, damn Obama. Montana will be destroyed by these people. The pasture will become a haven for weeds, insects, and wild animals." Hutton was really angry. These people were making life harder for the Montanans and cowboys.

Li Han understood. His neighbor might be a wealthy person or a Hollywood star. These people were attracted to Montana's blue skies, white clouds, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands. Li Han was unfortunately their neighbor. "Hutton, I agree with you. We need to talk to our neighbors."

These rich people were not interested in running the ranch. Their living places were well-built, but they did not pay much attention to controlling weeds or maintaining irrigation channels. These were things that needed to be shared with neighboring ranches. If one side did not do well, the other side would also be affected. The pasture was most afraid of weeds and insects. The ranch was essentially about growing grass. Raising cattle and sheep was actually about growing grass. The grass had to be lush for the cattle, sheep, and horses to be healthy.

The pasture was home to wild animals like rabbits, pheasants, white deer, antelopes, even bison, black bears, and wolves. After the busy season, hunting was generally not divided by boundaries, all to reduce the attacks of wild animals on cattle and sheep. However, the rich people's ranches did not welcome others entering or passing through, emphasizing privacy. This gradually changed the original spirit of mutual help among ranch owners and cowboys, making relationships colder and adding to the difficulties of running the ranch.

Li Han had participated in several protests, but the effects were minimal. Max had promised this during his campaign, but this traitor must have received funding from the rich, damn it.
