"Okay, Dudu is the most beautiful, have you brought a gift?"

Michelle invited Dudu to her birthday party. Michelle's ranch was not far from Li Han's farm. His grandfather, Anderson, was a stubborn German, a die-hard supporter of the Republican Party, and was very opposed to non-white immigrants. Li Han and Anderson had only met a few times and were not familiar with each other. It was a surprise that Anderson's invitation.

  On the table, the United States is a country that advocates racial equality, and any racial discrimination or remarks in public will be condemned. But in reality, whites and people of color, especially newcomers, are keeping their distance very carefully. The social circle is completely incompatible, this time Cider

The pressParty is a gathering of white wealthy class. There are about 200 people in total, mostly farmers and ranchers, some good friends and so on. Li Han drove a pickup to the parking lot. The lawn was trimmed and leveled in one place of the ranch, about the size of two football fields. Enough to park the car.

  Li Hanpika stopped, Little Dudu hugged him, White Wolf jumped down and followed Dudu, Dudu the big bodyguard. "Dad, Dudu gift." "Understood." Li Han brought the gift. It was some domestic gadgets. He bought it and brought it with him. The mountain wood carved basket, like a plate, lifted up in circles and fell into a basket shape , the price is not expensive, there is also a set of books and two small gifts.

The owner of the   Party, Anderson, owns a lot of pastures and apple orchards, with more than 50,000 acres of land. He is one of the largest landowners in the small town of Kemising. The party is held on the lawn of the pasture. Li Han came over with Dudu, Xiaomi Xueer saw Dudu coming, Dengdeng ran over, and the two little guys hugged closely.

  Li Han handed the gift to Dudu and gave it to Xiao Mi Xueer, Michelle opened it on the spot, and the wooden carved basket was really beautiful and very interesting, Xiao Mi Xue Er liked to cheer very much. "Wow, it's so beautiful, thank you Dudu." "Well, Dad bought it at grandma's house. This is Dudu's gift."

  Dudu gave the booklet and a big foot, Michelle tilted her little head and big feet in confusion. "Dudu, this is a big foot, it's weird to be fat." Shu Jian and Big Foot, Dudu nodded their heads and pulled their father. "Dad said it's fine, right Dad." Dudu looked back at his father and said, the little guy can worship his father.

   The guests around were quite puzzled, but before Li Han could speak, someone explained it for Li Han. "There is no misfortune greater than dissatisfaction, and no blame greater than desire. Therefore, contentment is always enough, contentment is always happy, and self-knowledge is satisfied, the heart is always happy."

  Liu Ming said with a smile while holding the whiskey, Li Han shook his head with a wry smile, no wonder Anderson invited himself, mostly because of Liu Ming's face. "Nice gift, thank you, Han, do you want a glass of whisky?" "Of course, Mr. Anderson." Li Han took the whisky and nodded to Liu Ming. "It's pretty good here, Han, what do you think." Liu Ming took a sip from the wine glass.

"Of course, Anderson Ranch has been passed down for three generations and has a history of more than 100 years. The houses here can be regarded as antiques. There are few large ranches in Kemising Town that have been inherited for hundreds of years. The scenery here has always been good." Li Han and Liu Ming came to the guest registration, Li Han himself The name was written on a sticker, which was attached to the chest to greet the guests. He walked to a quiet wooden bridge with some haystacks around. Li Han and Liu Ming sat down, and Liu Ming said with a smile. "Han, the apples here taste good, how about some?"

There are four or five large boxes on the lawn not far away, filled with all kinds of apples, and next to them are large buckets, a large juicer, Dudu and Michelle, Rem, and more than a dozen little guys are busy washing the apple press. juice. "Of course, I think the domestic price of such a good apple must be quite good."

   Liu Ming smiled and nodded. "Hehe, it's pretty good. You know that there are a lot of rich people in China. The price of good-quality apples is higher, but they actually sell better, don't they?" "Congratulations, this is really a good business." Understand, Liu Ming has his shadow everywhere, what a strange person.

   "It's too boring to say this, Han, I'm going to open a horse farm, how about it, are you interested?" Liu Ming put down the wine glass, Li Han looked up and down Liu Ming shook his head slightly. "There are enough horse farms in the United States. I'm not interested in this muddy water."

   "No, no, Han, you misunderstood. I want to say that it is in the suburbs of Beijing. I have a small farm, which may be converted into a horse farm. The horse farm has been quite good in the past two years." Liu Ming smiled and shook his head.

"Beijing suburbs, the place is good, but most of the Anderson Ranch is sheep, and there are not many Quarter Marks. I suggest you go to Milton or Laura Ranch. If there are not many, you can go to Xiaohua Hat." Li Han said , Anderson Ranch raises sheep, there are tens of thousands of sheep, mutton sheep and sheep, hundreds of alpacas, and grass-mud horses. Although there are horse farms, most of them are not very good. Liu Ming takes the high-end route and buys horses.

   "Han, maybe you can try raising some horses, what do you think?" Liu Ming shook the wine glass in his hand, and Li Han frowned. "I need to think about this matter." "I can pay some money or calculate a deposit. Of course, cooperation is also good. I have no problem."

   The more doubts in Li Han's heart, Liu Ming's condition is too good, Li Han does not know that he has such great charm or energy. "It's an attractive offer. Well, upfront, one hundred quarters, and I need a half-million dollar deposit."

   "Ok, no problem, Han, I think you should understand what I want." Liu Ming's eyes changed, shaking the glass gently.

   "No problem, I can't guarantee that the pedigree is the best, but it is definitely the most comfortable riding horse." Li Han knows that as long as he has a good horse with a high IQ, it will definitely save time and effort in training.

   "The faster the cooperation, the toast." Liu Ming raised his glass with a smile, Li Han touched it and drank the whisky in the glass, stood up and said to Liu Ming. "I'm sorry, I'll go over first." "It's okay." Liu Ming said with a smile.

  Li Han smiled and hugged Andrei with a glass of wine. "Uncle Andre, how have you been recently?" "Not bad, except for the **** grass." Andre poured a glass of whisky and patted Li Han on the shoulder. "Little Hank, yes, the new grassland is very successful, congratulations."

   "Thank you, I think the pasture will get better, and God will bless you." Andre is a good person, Li Han said after chatting. "Uncle Andre, maybe I can help you."

  Andre is in trouble, the forage is severely withered, pests and droughts, most of the small farms can't afford the price of forage to rise, sell cattle and sheep or even farms. "Thanks, Han, I'll take care of it." "No, no, Uncle Andre, it's a good thing for us all."

Li Han said that his other two neighbors, Li Han of Glassman Grassland, did a good job, and Dudu helped, and most of the bugs were eliminated. For months, Li Han undertakes to remove pests and weeds. "Thank God, Han, I'm going to have a drink with you, that's great news."

   "Andre, you made a noise with the guests. Maybe I shouldn't have invited you over." Anderson was slightly displeased, and Andre said with a smile. "No, no, no, Anderson today is my lucky day, Han, this is my brother, hey."

  Li Han took a look at Anderson and it turned out that Anderson was somewhat similar to Andre, but his personality was too different. Li Han never thought of it. "Excuse me, Han, andrei come with me, maybe it will help you."

   "No, Anderson, Han has helped me solve the problem, we are about to have a drink, you want a drink." Andre raised his glass. "Oh, Han is a good young man, of course." Anderson looked at the young man in front of him. He went from a black worker to a good farm owner in just a few years, and it was worth a toast.

Li Han and Andre, the Anderson brothers had a drink. Andre was in a good mood to introduce his family to Li Han. Andre's son, David, is going to college in New York. He is a great boy. Aged, looked at Li Han curiously. "Oh, Han, is China fun?" "Of course, China is a great country like the United States, with five thousand years of civilization and a vast territory." Li Han said with a smile.

  Liss Oh, I asked again is the Great Wall really long? There was not much Bruce Lee, and Li Han answered them one by one. Dolores was very happy and stretched out her small hand to say, and Li Han shook it. "Han, we are friends now. Can you tell me more about China? David doesn't want to tell me this."

  Li Han smiled and nodded. "Of course, oh, I have a small gift for you." Li Han took out a small foot and gave it to Dolores.

   "Wow, it's really cute." The chubby little foot pendant is very cute. "Thank you, Han." "Just a little foot." Dolores pouted a teenage boy playing with her.

  Dolores was upset and pulled Lihan. "This is the most interesting gift I have received." "Thank you, I think I should tell you the story behind this gift." Li Han said with a smile.

Contentment and happiness comes from the forty-fourth chapter of "Tao Te Ching", "Who is close to name and body? Who is more than one's body and goods? Who is sick or who is acquired? Loving too much will cost a lot, and hiding too much will lead to death. Therefore, contentment is not disgraceful. Knowing is not dangerous, it can last for a long time." Chapter 46, "There is a way in the world, but the horses are dung; there is no way in the world, and soldiers and horses are born in the suburbs. There is no sin greater than desire, no blame greater than desire, and no misfortune greater than ignorance. Sufficient. Therefore, contentment is sufficient, and permanence is sufficient.”

   Li Han translates it, meaning, there is a way in the world, return the horses to the fields to cultivate. There is no way in the world, soldiers and horses gallop in the suburbs. There is no greater calamity than not knowing how to use the army, and no mistake is greater than the enemy's tricks to lure him. Therefore, sufficient knowledge is sufficient to be perpetual.

"Wow, Han, is this really what the ancients said more than 2,000 years ago? It's great, Emerton, did you hear that?" Dolores happily kissed the little foot in her hand, pulling Li Han to continue listening to the story , contentment and happiness, many small stories, Buddhism and Taoism, and so on, Li Han found that there were many guests around. "It's a good story, Han, it's a wonderful story." Many applauded, yes, it was a good story.

   You must know that many people don't know China. The American people don't even know where Afghanistan or Iraq is. They are mysterious to China.

Li Han was distressed that Dolores followed him with a look of admiration on his face, which made people happy and helpless. Fortunately, Xiaodudu came to rescue his father. Dudu washed the apples, squeezed a small bucket of juice, and drank a large glass by himself. Bring Dad a big cup.

"Dad, Dudu squeezes the juice, it's delicious." "It's good, Dudu, this is Miss Dolores." "Oh, sister Dolores is good." "Good Dudu, Dudu is going to shout. Auntie."

  Li Han shook his head helplessly, such a little girl, don't make trouble, Andrei killed himself. Liu Ming came over just in time, and gave Li Han a thumbs up. "Yes, I really have a good eye."

  Li Han and Liu Ming were familiar with each other, so they winked at Liu Ming and snorted angrily. "Han, let's have a beer." "German beer?" "Of course, it's rare that you forget who the owner is here?"
