Lisko, who came home in the morning, yawned, threw his luggage into the living room, and went upstairs to catch up on sleep.

This night, he slept until noon, and was woken up by the rooster's cry from downstairs.

"plum!"

Lisko opened the window sleepily.

"Colt is back!" Rooster shouted excitedly downstairs.

"Huh? When?"

Lisko is a little more energetic. He was the one who had the best relationship with Colt when he was a child. Because he was relatively taciturn, he was not so popular in the school. He was often bullied at school. , I haven't seen each other for many years since I went out.

"Last night, Bo called you to come to my house for dinner today." Rooster was also very happy, his younger brother had been away from home for more than ten years.

"Okay. I'll go after I wash up."

Lisko was no longer sleepy, got up and changed his clothes, threw the dirty clothes into the washing machine, and went downstairs after washing.

There was no one downstairs. Jasmine was helping in the ranch. Today's plan was to plant rye. The dog Mag was biting and tearing at the blanket under his kennel downstairs.

Lisko stretched out his hand and hugged it. He held it up in front of his eyes and looked at him. Helulu's eyes looked kind.

"Mag, McGonagall," Lisko called it, cultivating its perception of its own name.

Lisko stroked its hair and walked to the basement with it.

Several households in the United States have an underground storage room, and Lisko's family brought it with him. When he moved in, he brought back the various wines he had collected at the school.

Opening the wooden door, he walked down the stairs. There were many shelves in it, and each shelf was neatly placed with a lot of wine.

"Whiskey, red wine, white wine, and white wine. Champagne."

Lisko touched them one by one with his hands. Then took a bottle.

"Latour Castle 1990."

This bottle of wine was given to him by his roommate. This roommate is not small, and he is the heir of a huge family in Greece.

Lisko looked at it and decided to take this bottle. He went out of the storage room and went to the study to open the cigar cabinet and grab a few Cubans that he liked very much last time.

By the time Lisko arrived at the Bojia Ranch, it was already very lively. Colt was a star in the town and a rugby player who came out of here. Everyone expected him to join a first-class club.

Lisko nodded to greet everyone, handed the wine and Cuban to the rooster beside him, then smiled and raised his hand to make a fist.

"Hey Colt."

The two bumped into fists and hugged as soon as they pulled together.

Colt was a little taller than Lisko, with curly yellow hair, a white face and no beard, and he was wearing sportswear.

"You really surprised me. I thought you would become a lawyer, a Wall Street financier, a teacher, but I never thought you would become a writer." Colt was also very happy to see his long-lost playmate, but also a little bit Sad, in his opinion, Lisko's younger brother, who had been running behind his **** back then, has achieved such a high level of achievement, but he has been without a job since being laid off by a third-rate club. He can only live by being a sparring coach for the school football team.

Rooster was very happy next to him, "Our invincible iron triangle finally got together. The hunting season is coming in a few days. Would you like to repeat our adventure again?"

"Of course." Lisko and Colt both smiled. When they were in junior high school, the three of them would go to the mountains to hunt in groups every year during the hunting season. Their secret bases were two hunting observation houses in the mountains, where they stayed So many memories and laughter.

The three of Lisko continued their meeting together, and the party began. Bo Zai kept showing his craftsmanship and grilled steak. Maggie came back from the tavern on the day her youngest son came back, mixing salad on the side. .

Lisko was eating steak, picked up the wine glass and touched Colt, "What are you going to do when you come back this time? Why don't you go, Bo's getting old."

Colt hesitated, "I'm still thinking about it."

Lisko knew that he was stubborn, but he didn't refute, "Gori is getting married, and her fiancé is a lawyer."

Colt's expression darkened. For him, apart from missing his family and friends this time, what he most wanted to see was Gorie.

Back then, for the club's solicitation, despite his family's objections and without informing Goli, he packed his bags and ran away secretly. After so many years, he still felt ashamed of Goli.

"Is that so? I thought she was already married, and I haven't seen her since I came back."

Lisko has nothing to do with Colt's stubbornness. He has been like this since he was a child.

"She's very happy now. You should think about it clearly. You should be aware of this kind of relationship."

"It's been so many years, and meeting each other is also a friend."

After the excitement, the rooster took Lisko and Colt to visit the ranch.

"The grass seeds have already been planted. It is the imperial bamboo grass. This forage grass contains seventeen kinds of amino acids. It is the most popular in recent years. It can be harvested 12 times a year. The planting of rye has been completed by two-thirds, and it can be harvested tomorrow. At the end, Jasmine also started a poultry farm, bought some chickens and ducks, and the vegetables have been processed to suit the season." The rooster talked about his work in a eloquent and straightforward manner, and Colt felt a little surprised, as if he didn't Get to know your brother.

"Rooster, you impress me, you really make a good cowboy."

Hearing this, Rooster felt a little resentful, "I have been helping at home since I didn't go to school. You have been running for more than ten years, and I have taught Bo a lesson every day at home for more than ten years."

Colt was a little ashamed, he didn't think so much when he ran, "Sorry, brother." He stretched out his hand and hugged the cock.

Rooster was silent for a while, and then patted him, "It's okay, you are my brother, and now our family is together again."

The two brothers were as good as ever and went home with their arms around them. Lisko was amused by these two brothers who seemed a little naive.

Lisko got home, went to the study and opened the wall cabinet. Inside were a revolver, a Glock pistol, and a Remington M887 shotgun. These things are standard for ranchers.

Lisko took out the gun oil and wiped every gun well, held Remington and took aim, then counted the remaining bullets. After a rough look, there were still a hundred or so rounds left, enough for one hunt.

The voice of the US banning guns has been shouting for many years, but no one has been able to act. In recent years, it is not only the promotion of arms companies, but also the American people themselves. They have become accustomed to taking up arms to defend their families.

Lisko's gun license was obtained very early, and he occasionally went to the club to shoot targets. From the beginning, he was obsessed with it, but it gradually calmed down. When you have something within your reach, you gradually don't like it that much. .

When I first accepted the ranch, I bought a few and put them at home. There are deep mountains behind the ranch. Occasionally, there will be incidents of wolves attacking the ranch and biting people and animals.

Lisko sat at the desk and read the post-news news, and climbed the wall to enter the domestic network to see it. Now the domestic network is developing rapidly. Fortunately, I have received information from domestic companies. The companies arranged by Lisko have already invested, like what The famous BAT, as well as some companies that you remember, the investment went very smoothly, and no company would reject an American investment company that could help you to go public without fighting for rights and hand over the management of shares to the existing managers.

Lisko calculated for a while, and estimated that after ten years, his assets could easily be ranked in the top five. Fortunately, when he started the company, he had already registered a shell in a place overseas. People can find the boss behind the scenes, be innocent, and enjoy life in a low-key manner.

After hesitating the agent's urging again, Lisko drank the cheap tea he bought last time, lying on the rocking chair and flipping through the book.

Although many brilliant writers have disappeared from this world, more writers that Lisko does not know have also emerged. Looking through some unfamiliar literary works, Lisko also found many particularly talented works here.

Li Ke just flipped through it and indulged in it. Before he knew it was getting dark, Jasmine stopped when he went upstairs and called him to eat.

Dinner was fried pork chops, and Jasmine's craftsmanship was quite good. With the thick soup, Lisko feasted on it.
