Lisko’s American Life

Hearing this news, all the people in the ranch showed sadness on their faces. This is not good news. Infectious diseases will definitely affect the ranch, no matter whether it is serious or not.

Americans don't have that much medical knowledge. As long as they hear that there are infectious diseases, they will definitely take a strange look at the production of this place.

"well."

Lisko rubbed his temples helplessly. The thing has already happened. No matter what, let’s follow the procedure.

As a livestock industry, pastures have been trained by the government, so they know how to deal with such things after they happen.

"David, go and report to the livestock association and the epidemic prevention department. Everyone, equip yourself and sprinkle the entire area around this place with lime powder."

Hearing the arrangement, everyone seems to have found the backbone, and they all started to disperse to work.

Lisko turned his gaze to Gary,

"Doctor, I still have to trouble you for the next thing. All the livestock on the ranch need to be inspected in detail. The infected cattle and horses should be picked out as soon as possible and dealt with in a centralized manner to prevent the accident from spreading again. Of course, the reward will be paid after the event." in your account."

Gary nodded understandingly,

"Mr. Dutiful."

There was no one around Lisko, only Hammer was still leaning on the railing, his eyes fixed on the beloved horse in the stable.

For cowboys, horses are their partners, right-hand assistants, and even family members. Seeing the pain of the other party makes Hammer feel uncomfortable.

Lisko came over, patted him on the shoulder, reached out and took a pistol from the hand of Charles next to him, and handed it to Hammer.

"Give your old chap a good time,"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he heard a gunshot behind him. Lisko paused for a moment without stopping, and continued to walk into the castle. Next, he had to work There are many things.

Payne in the castle has already got the news first, and is instructing everyone to start disinfecting the entire castle. By the way, all the recently purchased items in the kitchen are processed together. The ingredients to be used next may need to go to other places The ingredients are sourced and shipped back by air.

The only good news that can be commended is that the anthrax virus is not a medically intractable disease. Generally, there will be no fatal symptoms. Even if it is infected, the mortality rate is only 1%. The phenomenon.

Generally, the infected person will be in direct contact with the pathogen before it can spread. The greatest possibility of infecting people is only a skin infection, that is, the infected person will have local skin swelling.

After receiving David's call, the relevant departments immediately took action, launched a three-level contingency plan, and dispatched medical and disease control experts to conduct on-site investigations, because the place where they appeared was a pasture, which was also very beneficial to their work. Greatly reduce the difficulty of management.

In the coming days, all livestock and meat products may be strictly prohibited from going out, and people must go through strict epidemic prevention treatment when entering and leaving.

But for Payne, these are not things that need to be concerned about. The most important thing for him is to manage the food, clothing, housing and transportation of his master's house well to prevent infection.

David quickly finished his work as instructed, and then went to the castle to discuss the next step with Lisko.

"Sir, what about the vegetables in our ranch now, and the restaurants that have signed orders, according to the person in charge of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, all the output of our ranch cannot be produced, and all can only be sold after the plan is over. .”

David's face was full of anxiety. Judging from the current situation, the ranch might miss the appointment to the customer. The contract has already stated that if the delivery cannot be made on time due to the condition of the ranch, he will have to pay three times the compensation.

Li Ke was thinking, Li's Ranch has already established its reputation near Denver, which is the result of several years of development. If he misses the appointment, his signboard may be smashed, and it will not be so easy in the future. Gaining the trust of customers is not advisable.

Moreover, triple compensation will increase the loss of the ranch. If the situation is serious, all of your cattle and vegetables will be destroyed, and you may not be able to produce this year. According to the conditions indicated in the contract, you will be compensated triple for each delivery cycle. , that is a sum of money that can repurchase the ranch.

"In this way, I will find a friend's ranch to buy and come back to top it first, and you continue to deliver to the other party, but the delivery location is in Denver, contact the slaughterhouse, and rent a large warehouse. We can't ruin our reputation, we can only supply at a loss. The goods are out, and with shipping costs, we may lose a lot of money, but it would be nice if we could get through this."

"Also, go to every customer to make an apology, explain the situation, and then sell all of them at a 20% discount, so as not to affect the transaction output between us."

As he said that, Lisko took out the contact book from his drawer, which was full of small folders, covered with transparent glass jackets, and full of business cards he got from various receptions.

Searched to the page of the ranch, found out the name of a familiar person, and called the phone number above.

Now Liske is extremely grateful to himself for going to many ranches for field inspections a few years ago, and gained the friendship of many ranchers. Otherwise, if he encountered this kind of thing alone, he would have no choice but to compensate for the treaty in the contract.

"Hey Ian, I'm Lisco from Colorado, how are you?"

On the other end of the phone was Ian Wagner, who visited last time. The Wagner family is the largest rancher in Texas. To others, this amount of purchase is just a piece of cake.

"Hey, my friend, I've been doing very well recently. Last year's income has greatly exceeded my expectations. How about you?"

With a trace of embarrassment, Lisko explained the situation to him in detail before starting his appeal.

"Ian, I'm going to ask for your help. Before the ranch recovers, can you provide me with the source of goods, mainly beef and vegetables. I will buy them at twice the market price, and I will also bear the freight."

After speaking, he anxiously waited for the other party's reply.

Ian was taken aback for a moment, but quickly gave the answer.

"No problem, my brother. Everyone has a bad luck. The price is still according to the market price. I am happy to help you. I will let the ranch manager contact your ranch later, and wish you out of the predicament as soon as possible."

Li Ke immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The biggest problem was solved. The only thing he lost in this transaction was the customer's 20% off payment, plus the shipping fee. Compared with the previous calculation, it was much reduced.
