The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 254 253. The last boss

The death of old MacLean was like a boulder thrown into the lake in Riverdale, causing a splash of water.

For Lin Feng, this is not only the departure of a respected elder, but also the end of an era.

The murderer who shot Mr. McClung has passed away, and there is no point in pursuing him.

In the corridor of the hospital, he felt unprecedentedly heavy and depressed.

Jasmine's tears, Hans' sighs, and the sadness on those familiar faces all silently told the fact that old Macron had left them forever.

Soon, the McClung brothers and their mother came out of the hospital room, followed by a priest.

Lin Feng stood aside and looked at them quietly.

No matter what he said at this time, he could not really comfort the pain in their hearts, but Lin Feng still stepped forward and gently patted Nicholas on the shoulder.

"I'm very sad about your father." Lin Feng said in a low voice.

Everyone dispersed, and the next step was to wait for the memorial service a few days later.

Lin Feng thought for a while and said: "Old McClun definitely wants Nicholas to inherit the ranch, but that guy is isolated and helpless. My younger brother George looks harmless, but in fact he is a very scheming boy."

Nicholas raised his head, his eyes were tired, and the corner of his mouth barely raised a bitter smile. "Thank you, brother."

"Santiago."

"What do you think will happen in Tranquility Meadow?" Jasmine asked softly.

"Everyone, although Mr. McClung has left us, his spirit will always remain in our hearts. Now, let us pray for him together and may he rest in peace in heaven."

He thought of what the old McClun once said to him. Those words about courage and persistence seemed to still be echoing in his ears.

The past month has been busy, and it has been a long time since I could live the ranch life as carefree as before.

Nicholas walked out of the hospital alone and went straight to the car. His wife did not follow him out, knowing that her husband needed some time to be quiet now.

Just then, the priest came over with a gentle and kind smile on his face.

"who is it?"

Lin Feng's analysis was clear and logical, and Jia Simin nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Everyone bowed their heads in silence, and Lin Feng also closed his eyes and prayed silently in his heart.

Lin Feng fell into deep thought, "The name sounds familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere."

"In addition, George has the support of his mother's family. It feels like the Nicholas family will be isolated sooner or later."

A muscular middle-aged man with a big beard who looks very powerful.

The two walked out of the hospital side by side and went outside to relax.

Lin Feng slapped his forehead, it turned out to be him.

She asked again: "Yes, but do you know who George's uncle is?"

George looked very calm and always stood with his mother, giving him the feeling that he needed to be protected.

"When we went to the old mine to cause trouble for the bicyclists, it was Santiago who blocked the back door of the warehouse with a truck."

If he supported George McClung, Nicholas would be in real danger. Not only would he not be able to get the ranch, he might be kicked out.

Jasmine said: "How about we help him."

Lin Feng waved his hand, "This is someone else's housework, how can outsiders interfere."

In fact, he was thinking about the 400 acres of land in Serenity Meadows. If George took over, he might actually be able to sell it.

Without his eldest brother to work, that kid couldn't even support a ranch.

Just wait and see what happens, but if Nicholas really finds him, Lin Feng will not stand idly by.

In the next few days, the livestock transport truck from the reservation will deliver the newly purchased 800 calves. Lin Feng may already be in Seattle by then. The follow-up of this matter will be left to Charlie and David. Bonuses were given to the two of them and their wages were increased. Now they are in a good mood, especially the uncle, who has regained his second youth.

The coin from the European colonial era is about to be auctioned. This time Lin Feng plans to take his parents with him on a trip to Seattle.

Jasmine took the initiative to sign up and also went to Seattle for vacation.

The first G2 game in her life will be held next month, and Jia Simin said she wants to relax before that.

Lin Feng readily agreed. On the one hand, his mother liked her as her future daughter-in-law, and they would definitely be happy to travel together. On the other hand, Jasmine can help her "take care of" her parents, and then go and have a drink with Paul in the evening.

The day before departure, my mother prepared two suitcases and several sets of changes of clothes.

Looking at this huge box, Lin Feng felt his scalp numb.

"Mom, if you need anything, just go to Seattle and buy it now. There's no need to pack left and right. It's too troublesome."

My mother stood up and retorted: "It's like buying things for free!"

"Your son is now a millionaire after all. Why is he still living so tightly? It's better if we travel light."

"Don't worry about having a little money. As the saying goes, it's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's difficult to go from luxury to frugality."

Dad quickly winked at Lin Feng, meaning your mother can take it if she wants, why bother with her?

What my mother said was reasonable. Lin Feng said nothing and just stood with his hands on his hips and laughed.

Anyway, drive directly to Helena Airport. When you arrive in Seattle, Paul will drive to pick you up, so you don’t have to worry about luggage transfer.

Jasmine also laughed and asked her why she was laughing.

"Just now, uncle was carrying auntie behind his back and winking at you. It was very interesting."

"My father is afraid of his wife, and he is famous in his hometown."

Jasmine blinked at him, "Are you afraid?"

Lin Feng pinched his chin, "Of course, I'm scared to death, but I have skills on my hands."

A family of four was preparing to set off, and the father did not forget to pick up his old pocket watch.

Since Lin Feng fished it out of Tranquility Lake, this thing has finally seen the light of day again.

I don’t know what good stuff I used. My dad made the pocket watch shiny and it looked like a new one. He also had to patch up the paint that fell off.

When they arrived in Seattle, Paul arrived as promised and drove them to his home.

A beautiful single-family villa located in a quiet neighborhood, surrounded by green trees and fresh and pleasant air.

When my mother saw the environment here, she was full of praise and took Jasmine around in the garden. This refined environment was indeed more advanced than the pure natural scenery of the ranch.

Women all like flowers and plants, especially in spring.

It can be seen that Paul has great taste. There are many paintings on the wall, including those of Mr. Qi Baishi.

"You live alone?" Lin Feng asked curiously.

Paul spread his hands and said, "Otherwise? I don't have a girlfriend as beautiful as you to keep me company."

"If you think about it, the girls aren't lining up."

However, given Paul's ability, most women probably have less than pure intentions in approaching him.

Paul didn't care about their purpose. Since everyone had ulterior motives, he should be thorough.

"Actually, I envy you, brother, for having a girl who truly loves you." Paul suddenly became serious.

Lin Feng whispered: "I also envy you. You didn't hang yourself on a tree and could embrace the entire forest."

Worried that Jasmine would hear it, she even looked up a few times to make sure that little girl was happily strolling in the garden with her mother.
