MTL - Treasure Hunt America-Chapter 1247 fan the flames
There is such a brother-in-law, the more old-fashioned and conservative Clive, it is strange to like him.
So even though this guy has become his brother-in-law, the Clive family and this Jerry. The Collins family has never been very close. Even during the Chinese New Year and festivals, they send a postcard to greet each other. Many times, they don't even bother to make phone calls.
But in recent years, I heard that Jerry seems to be doing well, and the reason why he is doing well is not because his ranch is well managed, but because he has such a very good son.
his son Tom. Collins, like his father, is not a guy who can stay on the farm all his life, but unlike his father, this Tom is very good at learning.
When he graduated from high school that year, he was admitted to USC and became one of the few champions in the Red River Valley for hundreds of years. You must know that in such a relatively closed environment, most of these farmers are They are all a bunch of vulgar scumbags. Few of them don't like alcoholism and gambling. They say educating children, but there are really few good ones.
Almost all the sons of farmers here are like them. They are all farmers. They have lived here all their lives, and not many have even gone to college. The highest education is high school graduation.
So back then this Jerry. Collins' son, Tom. When Collins was admitted to USC and got a full scholarship, it was quite a sensation when it spread in the pastures of the Red River Valley.
After all, this is the ranch area of the Red River Valley. One of the most outstanding students in the past few decades, even Clive, who had never been accustomed to Jerry, visited Jerry's ranch personally because of this incident. Congrats to my nephew who hadn't seen a few times at all.
In any case, this child also has half the blood of their Bundy family. This child can have such a future. It can be regarded as a face to their Bundy parents. For this matter, Clive also gave Tom ten thousand dollars as a He was admitted to USC as a reward, that is, since then, the relationship between the two families has eased a little.
And that Tom really lived up to expectations. After graduating from the USC Law School, he entered the most famous law firm in California, and in just a few years, he achieved very good results and became a law firm. co-manager.
And this guy is also very filial, plus he earns a lot of money, so he often honors his parents, so in recent years, despite the poor management of Jerry's ranch, it is in the Red River Valley area. , it was still beautiful.
So even though everyone now disdains Jerry's behavior, they are still silent and acquiesce to his words.
When Jerry saw it, everyone was waiting for him to speak, which made him very happy. Although he has been a maverick all his life, he wants to be different from these ranchers who smell like cow shit, but in fact, he is in his bones. , he still hopes to get the recognition of this group of people.
Now these guys keep their mouths shut, obediently watching the way he speaks, which makes him feel an unprecedented satisfaction in his heart.
"Tom called me some time ago and mentioned what was going on in this area. You must not quite understand Cliff, why did they suddenly come to trouble you?"
When Jerry mentions his son like that, everyone's ears **** up, because everyone's heard of the guy named Tom, who seems to be doing really well in Los Angeles, and he's a lawyer, maybe he really knows, a lot What information does everyone not know?
Especially Cliff, to be honest, he just wanted to break his head and couldn't understand why those police officers suddenly came to trouble him.
He also knows that he has done a lot of **** and criminal things, but he has always been very careful about those things. It ended with his victory.
So he couldn't understand why this time was different from the previous few times. Why did the police keep staring at him and start from the direction of grazing. You must know that their family is grazing in the red river valley. Ten years.
They didn't take care of them before, but this time they suddenly took care of them. Not only did they issue a ticket to themselves, but they also asked themselves to get out of the ranch, which was very wrong.
So when Jerry said this, he immediately turned his head and looked at Jerry, waiting for him to tell himself.
Jerry saw that the heat was almost over, so he cleared his throat and continued: "So Tom told me that recently, several big families in California, as well as some industrial and commercial giants, have been holding secret meetings. , they are discussing one thing, and that is the construction of high-speed rail in California. It is said that they have submitted a bill to the state legislature, and now the legislature is discussing it behind closed doors, and no news has been released to the outside world. But look It looks like this high-speed rail line has been fixed in California, and the route starts from Sacramento, goes to San Francisco, passes through Oakland, San Jose, and then goes straight down to Los Angeles..."
Jerry stopped here on purpose, and some of the ranchers present were really idiots, with a stubborn brain.
But what a shrewd old fox is Crave? Hearing Jerry say this, he basically understood, it seems that the root is here.
"You mean that high-speed railway is going to pass through our red river valley? So they want to seize our land, so the Intercontinental Mounted Police, along with the people from the Land Resources Administration, came to me. trouble?"
At this moment, Cliff suddenly had a sudden realization, what the hell, these damned gang, let me just say, I have been grazing in the Red River Valley for decades, you bastards, don't come sooner or later. Come on, you are looking for trouble with me at this time, the relationship is because of this!
"Are you sure? Jerry, if what you're saying is true, it means that our land here will become very valuable soon."
One of the ranchers in a baseball cap and a blue plaid shirt suddenly asked Jerry that this guy was Leslie, the most famous of all the ranchers in the field, a cheapskate who valued money very much.
When I heard this at this time, my eyes suddenly lit up. If the high-speed rail line really had to pass through the red river valley, wouldn't his land also increase in value?
After all, his ranch is right next to Cliff's ranch, just below Craff's ranch, closer to Los Angeles. If a high-speed rail is to be built here, then their home is also a must pass. .
"Hey, don't dream about Leslie, if they use this method to expropriate the land of the Clive family, do you think they will come to you with cash to talk about the acquisition? I'm afraid that after Clive is settled, they will The first thing to do is to deal with you in the same way."
Another red-necked farmer, Sam, suddenly said with a sneer, and when Leslie heard what Sam said, his eyes suddenly turned red.
"What the hell, if they dare to treat me like this, I will fight with them to the end."
"Fight, what are you fighting for? The nearby ranch, in terms of strength, is not the strongest in the Red River Valley of the Clive family? If even he can't resist those bastards, what are you going to resist?"
Sam, the red-faced guy, looks like a rough guy, but his mind is the most delicate. When he said this, the big guy thought about it, and it really is.
And who knows what those guys' greed for the land here is like? Maybe their appetite will be great?
"Hehe, let's be honest with you, those guys don't have a good appetite at all. They don't just value the land of Clive, but the land of all of us. You must know that they Why did they choose our Red River Valley instead of Bakersfield when choosing a high-speed rail line? It's because they like the ranch of all of us, and they want to build a new city here, a new high-speed rail transit center. City."
At this time, Jerry continued to speak, but at the same time as the words fell, he quietly exchanged glances with Sam and Clive. Obviously, there was a tacit alliance between them.
And he, Jerry, is the one responsible for fanning the flames~www.novelbuddy.com~ and his purpose of fanning the flames is to fool all these farmers and make them angry.
After all, they all know that they can call all these ranchers in today because of his face and the relationship between everyone, but if you really want them to fight the government with you, Then you must be taking the wrong medicine.
These **** red necks are not as simple as they used to be. Why are you stabbing your friends with a knife? That's bullshit. At that time, they are not so special. .
And if you want to tie all these people to their chariots, you must let them see real interests, or let them believe that someone wants to move their interests and move their cakes.
So when Cliff learned the truth of the whole thing from Jerry's son, Tom, he devised such a seditious plan!
And the effect was exactly as they expected. When those red-necked people with their own thoughts, they were all angry when they heard that it turned out to be the **** bankers and wanted to plot against them! (To be continued.)
