Lisko's American life
Chapter 109 The Political Lies (Thanks for the reward of his husband and wife)
"Hey, Lee." Les was standing at the door, holding his pipe in his hand, and seeing Lisko galloping on his horse, he came to greet him.
"Hey, Les, how are you doing?" Lisko got off his horse and gave the oncoming cowboy the reins.
"Not bad, you know, the recent travel has made us a lot better, so stingy old ranchers, at last there is no resistance to me as the president of the association."
The two embraced, and began to walk into the white building full of French flavor in Les.
It can be seen that Les is proud now. When he took over the Colorado State Animal Husbandry Association, most ranchers were not very convinced by him. Things based on seniority are available all over the world.
Les gritted his teeth and developed his ranch into the largest nearby area, only to make some people shut their mouths, but not many people really convinced him.
Therefore, he has been trying his best to show his ambitions. This time the multinational tourism company decided to launch a tourism project near Garrison. He also made a lot of efforts behind the scenes. Finally, the dust settled. The current animal husbandry association is all He holds great power, so people also seem to be particularly comfortable.
Liske followed Les into the villa. It was still the same classicist architecture as before, with rigorous modeling, classical pillars standing around, and colorful interior decoration, making people feel like they are in the Louvre.
Although it is exquisite, Lisko thinks that it must be very depressing to live here. The whole building is tall and magnificent, gorgeous and unusual, without any breath of life.
Just after sitting down, the maid of the villa delivered cold sparkling water. In this hot summer, when entertaining guests, no matter if it was coffee or black tea, there was no comfort of sparkling water.
Lisko drank it in one sip, and the iced drink dissipated the heat from his riding horse, making him exhale comfortably.
"I saw the rooster fill out the form in the association yesterday, why? Did you figure it out? I said a long time ago that we young ranchers should actively join the association, and let us slowly weed out old guys like them." Les waited for Lisko to finish drinking the water before speaking.
Although the Animal Husbandry Association is a small department with a small number of personnel, it basically consists of only four or five detectives, but what is special is that they have law enforcement powers and can be equipped with guns and bullets, that is, they can be killed. The price paid by the suspect is just to submit a report.
Of course there are more than these permissions. You can also contact the US Information Center to verify a person’s basic information. This kind of power is already very large. No matter what, in private, at least the United States clearly protects personal privacy and can query any citizen at will. The basic information is already top-notch.
At the same time, they also have the right to call the police security center, and they can ask the mount police of the state government to help with the case.
Therefore, many people want to hold this association in their hands. At least they don't need to be controlled by others. In order to become the president, Les also spent a lot of effort and bribed many people with money to get enough votes.
Therefore, the association is divided into two factions at present. A group of conservatives dominated by the stingy old rancher Rodriguez. They think that these young people like Leis are useless and follow the old ranch management methods. , Is the biggest opponent of Leslie.
The other faction is the young and Zhuang faction headed by Leslie. They have progressed in their thinking and hope that the ranch can be joined with modern machinery to liberate labor and provide faster and more efficient ranch management.
This time, Leslie’s tourism project has saved many old-fashioned ranchers, so many people began to turn to this young, but powerful faction that can bring money to the livestock industry in Garrison Colorado, so there are only a few leftovers of the old-school. The old rancher, the situation is gone.
Li Sike has never liked to mix up these things. He thinks that a single association can develop so many political struggles. He is indifferent. The temple demon is very windy, and Chi Qian is full of kings.
The rooster can join the Animal Husbandry Association. It also represents Colt, Bo, and Lisko’s three ranches in the association. Of course, the three ranches are naturally on the side of Les, and Lisko also feels that Les’s propositions and his There is no attempt in the usual performance.
Although Lisko is well-known in the state, he can talk about any important department, but in life, it is often the soldiers under these departments who are dealing with them. You can't find the people above to solve everything, which is a waste of favor. .
"So the rooster will rely on your help in the association in the future." Lisko understood Les's subtext. What he meant was to win three ranches on his side, although the combined area of the three ranches was not as large as his. , But Lisko is a tough person standing here. He doesn’t want to provoke him because of something. He is not like the cowboys who don’t know anything about politics. He thinks Lisko is just a famous person. It's just a writer.
"Okay, I must help him." Les grinned happily, the top of his bald head gleaming in the sun at a young age.
He walked quickly to the wine cabinet in his living room and took out a bottle of wine.
"I think we should open a champagne, Lee, it makes me so happy that you can agree with me." Les enthusiastically took the goblet and walked to the sofa.
"Boom." The golden champagne was poured into the glass.
The two "Chaires" clinked glasses. The complex taste of citrus, apple, and almonds mixed together, which made Lisko unfinished.
"It's great, isn't it? Champagne is better than France. I have a good collection of champagne here. I will take some later."
Les saw that Lisko was very satisfied with Champagne and was also very enthusiastic. He always wanted to have a good relationship with Lisko, this kind of opportunity would not be missed.
Lisko could not say a word of refusal. He also understood Les’s purpose and would not be disgusted by it. On the contrary, he felt that Les was very capable. If he needed his help, Lisko would certainly not be stingy with his abilities.
"Well, I'm disrespectful. When the rye beer on my ranch is produced, I must give you something to taste."
Li Sike responded with a smile.
"Okay. I usually like to drink beer, so I must taste it." Receiving the response, Les also understood that Lisko accepted his kindness, and the first step in being friends is to send gifts to each other.
"By the way, did your ranch also have tourists recently?" Lisko remembered his purpose of coming here, and asked Les.
"Yes, that's right. Recently, a tour group came from mainland China. I found that the damn politicians' description of China was not correct at all. They were manipulating the information received by the people. I always thought that mainland China was very Poor, I didn’t expect them to come here to travel and make money. It’s not what I think it is."
