Lisco's American Life

756. Jimmy's Help

It was another calm morning. After breakfast, Lisko stood at the window and looked into the distance with a cup of black tea.

The pasture was extremely busy in the early morning. In addition to the braying of cattle, there was also the sound of cowboys' whips. Everyone was driving the cattle. When passing the castle, some cowboys took off their hats to express their respect for Lisko.

This has become a regular program every morning. It has been a long time since the last virus incident. After David’s unremitting efforts, the ranch has now returned to normal and is able to transport goods to customers.

Calculated, the loss this time is really not small. David reported the bill yesterday. The ranch was originally profitable. After the last crisis, it was directly in debt worth millions of dollars. The most expensive cost was to maintain it.

orders, and purchased beef and vegetables at high prices.

Since there is a loss, there will be corresponding returns. Now in many restaurants and chain supermarkets, Li's Ranch has a first-class reputation. When the situation is the same, everyone is more willing to cooperate with Li's Ranch. After all,

The other party fulfilled the spirit of the contract very strictly.

Compared with liquidated damages, most merchants still need long-term and stable supply channels to maintain their customer base.

The cowboys rode horses and drove the cattle towards the foot of the mountain. The original grazing land was in another direction, but since acquiring Les Ranch, David changed the grazing base after inspection.

At the foot of the mountain behind Les Pasture, the grass is more luxuriant, and few people come here, so the cattle are not disturbed from grazing, and the grass juice is fresher than in other places.

Lisko finished the cup of black tea in his hand and was about to turn around and pour another cup. A cup of black tea in the morning can boost his energy for the whole day and make him feel comfortable all over.

Suddenly, a car drove straight from the entrance of the ranch towards the castle. He squinted his eyes and carefully identified whether any friends were coming to visit.

If it is a guest of the ranch, then the destination of the other party should be the cowboy dormitory in the other direction, heading straight for you, then he is definitely his friend.

The car was driving extremely slowly. At this speed, some people believed that they just got their driver's license. And as the car got closer, it was obvious that it was an old pickup truck.

Lisko was extremely confused, turned around and went downstairs to see who this mysterious visitor was.

The car slowly stopped in front of the castle. A young man got out of the car. He was wearing a cowboy hat and a neat cowboy dress. When he saw Lisko coming forward, he immediately took off his hat and bowed in salute.

Only then did Lisko see the other party's appearance clearly. Isn't this Jimmy? "

"gentlemen."

Jimmy's expression was not so comfortable. Anyone who looked at him would immediately realize that this person had something on his mind. However, the etiquette was still in place. After greeting Lisko, he straightened up.

"Are you off today?"

After Lisko saw clearly who was coming, he didn't have much emotion. Jimmy was a cowboy from his own ranch, but he obviously came back from outside. The cowboys who were working just passed by.

"Yes, I have something to take a break from. I asked for leave from the boss."

Jimmy answered Lisko's question with a look on his face that was hesitant to speak.

Of course, Lisko realized that Jimmy had something to ask him, but the other party never spoke, and he didn't intend to ask. He just nodded and prepared to return to the living room. Looking at his actions, Jimmy gritted his teeth and spoke anyway.

"gentlemen."

"Anything else?"

Lisko turned around and raised his eyebrows. He looked at Jimmy and asked.

"I need your help with something."

Jimmy's face turned pale and red. He pinched his trousers in embarrassment and lowered his head, not daring to look into Lisko's eyes.

This sentence surprised him, because if a cowboy has something going on, he will usually go to David first, and basically David can help solve the problem and will not report it to Lisko.

What Jimmy is doing now is obviously an offense to David's authority. However, although the other person is a little stupid at work, he still works very hard, and after working on the ranch for so long, he has gradually become proficient in his skills and has become

A true cowboy.

It stands to reason that he should know that what he did was not appropriate, but he still had a stubborn look on his face. This made Lisko very curious. He thought for a few seconds, waved his hand, motioned for the other party to come up, and followed him in.

explain.

When Jimmy followed Lisko to the living room, he respectfully took the black tea from him with both hands. Only half of his buttocks were next to the seat. He waited for Lisko to finish a sip of tea before continuing to speak.

"Sir, I need your help and I hope you will allow me."

After such a period of psychological struggle, it was obvious that Jimmy had made up his mind. Lisko raised his hand to signal him to continue, while he was listening quietly.

If it was something that could be solved easily, I wouldn't mind helping. After all, as the boss, Jimmy works very hard and is highly appreciated by him.

Furthermore, his father, Jimmie's grandfather, Dale Sr., was also a close family friend. For the sake of the deceased Dale, he would also lend a helping hand.

"Sir, I,"

When the critical moment came, Jimmy didn't know how to speak. Although he had made sufficient preparations on the way, facing Lisko's concerned eyes, all his original plans fell through.

Know exactly how to say it.

"It seems you are not ready yet."

Lisko continued to take a sip of tea, stood up and patted Jimmy on the shoulder, and then prepared to leave. But at this time, Jimmy thought of the little baby still in his car and the way the other person looked at him, and suddenly felt like

Has endless power.

"Sir, I have a daughter."

"What?"

Lisko almost spit out the tea he had just swallowed in his mouth. He shifted his gaze to Jimmy and carefully confirmed whether the word the other person said was the word "baby" or whether he had heard it wrong.

"Yes, that's right. I have a daughter, my biological daughter."

As soon as the words were spoken, Jimmy's courage seemed to return to him again. He looked at Lisko and spoke word by word.

"You? Child? Whose? When?"

Lisko suddenly became interested again, turned around and sat down, leaning his whole body forward, looking at Jimmy carefully, confirming again that the other party was not joking.
