The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 56 56. Love Rival Bennett

"That's enough Bennett, don't embarrass me here!"

shouted old John over there.

It was obvious that he was supreme in Otto Ranch and no one dared to disobey Old John. Bennett, full of anger, glared at Lin Feng and walked back.

Lin Feng really wanted to know what happened between him and Jia Simin, and whether it was what he thought.

The Otto family team was about to leave, but when they reached Lin Feng, Old John stopped.

"We meet again, young man." He was cordial.

Lin Feng responded with a smile: "Hello Mr. Otto, I am always grateful."

"Don't take that matter to heart. I just did a favor to my old friend Tom Frank."

"What I want to say is that Charlie Geraci rejected the generous offer I gave him and chose you. I don't know what kind of ecstasy you gave Charlie, but now he is working at Lakeside Ranch."

"Charlie is great and you are very lucky."

After speaking, a smile flashed across Old John's face, and then he called his people to move on.

After watching the Otto family team leave, Lin Feng and David looked at each other.

David touched his forehead, "Is that bald guy so popular?"

Lin Feng: "I was actually a little touched."

The last group of PETA protesters left, and the livestock trading market returned to its usual appearance.

When only Lin Feng and Jia Simin were left, he was a little hesitant about how to speak.

"Lin, I know what you want to ask." As a result, Jasmine spoke first, "I never gave him a chance."

Lin Feng had a silly smile on his face and felt happy in his heart.

But you still have to put on a very generous expression to avoid being thought of as being petty.

But love has always been selfish, possessive, jealous, deeply invested in emotions, and not wanting anyone to disturb you.

A girl as beautiful as Jasmine is bound to have suitors, even in Riverdale.

Old David came over and patted Lin Feng on the shoulder, "BOSS, love is sweet, but it's time for us to pick up the pieces."

This reminded Lin Feng that there were still tasks to be completed today.

Similarly, Jasmine has to go back to the police station to complete the remaining work, such as making notes for those PETA troublemakers and then submitting them to the city hall.

The two looked at each other with hot eyes, and Jasmine was stroking the hair that fell out of the police hat.

After a moment of silence, they both said at the same time: "How about tonight's date?"

Jia Simin smiled brightly, and Lin Feng also followed suit.

Old David clapped his hands. Doudou, who had just arrived, didn't know and asked them what they were happy about.

Lin Feng drove away the two light bulbs. He wanted to whisper something to Jasmine.

Doudou put his arm around Old David's shoulders and asked if he wanted to smoke a cigarette nearby, and the latter readily agreed.

Only the two of them were left.

Jasmine said: "Lin, don't give me any words from now on."

"why?"

"If we understand each other well enough, we will go to the same date."

Jasmine's smile was sweet and charming.

Lin Feng nodded in agreement.

Jasmine tilted her head and blinked, "At eight o'clock in the evening, let's see how our tacit understanding is."

Watching her leave, Lin Feng felt as comfortable as if someone was picking out his ears.

When I thought about it again, I felt that I had agreed too hastily just now, and I felt at a loss as to how much tacit understanding it would take to meet again in the large town of River Valley.

At this time, old David and Doudou, smelling of cigarette smoke, came up.

Doudou had a mean expression. Lin Feng was stared at and wondered if the fat man was gay, "Is there something on my face?"

"Brother, don't you have anything to ask me?" Doudou said coquettishly.

Showing his shining white teeth.

"what?"

Lin Feng spread his hands, not quite understanding.

Doudou twisted his fat body and stretched out a finger. "Let me remind you, for example... Bennett? Jasmine?"

Lin Feng understood immediately. It turned out that he was waiting for him here, but this fat policeman must know something.

"Okay, let me tell you the truth. Did they date?"

Doudou shook his head like a rattle and said decisively: "No."

"how do you know?"

"Jazmine has no feelings for him, it's just that the guy has unrequited love. Because of this, Jasmine's brother Patricia even had a fight with Bennett in the trading market."

Lin Feng was very interested in this paragraph and asked Doudou to explain it in detail.

Doudou squinted at the sky at a 45-degree angle, recalling, "Obviously, Patricia is a hot-tempered man. He beat up Bennett at the auction site, that's all."

Patricia?

Lin Feng began to recall that night at Grando Ranch. There were indeed two men beside Matthew at that time, who should be Jasmine's second and third brothers.

With three brothers and a father who is a lieutenant colonel in the Air Force, one can imagine how much she was pampered since she was a child.

"You seem to be very familiar with Old John." Lin Feng said again.

Doudou held her chin, "After all, I am the only senior police officer in River Valley Town. I have to deal with them on a daily basis. This is within the scope of my job."

This fat man should eat well, he is an old fried dough stick.

"Kevin, are you married?"

Doudou pouted, "Of course, I also have a daughter who is in elementary school."

Lin Feng wanted to say "I thought you were a gay", but after thinking about it, he let it go. After all, he had helped him a lot, so the joke was a bit too much.

It's time to start another task of the day, go to the livestock and see if you can pick up any leaks.

However, Lin Feng's mind was no longer on the livestock. He was thinking about a date at night. The more he thought about it, the more clueless he felt.

This endless test of tacit understanding is really daunting, but since you agreed to Jia Simin, let’s give it a try.

"Uncle, wasn't I being pretentious just now?"

Lin Feng asked about the old David beside him.

He smiled and said: "No, no, no, this is what young people are like. Let me tell you, BOSS, when I was young, I was even more disgusting than you."

Lin Feng took advantage of the situation and said: "Then take your wife to the ranch and do something within her ability. I will pay her salary."

David scratched his head, "It's better to just shoot me."

There are still signs thrown by protesters in the trading market, and the traces of paint on the ground will probably remain for a while until they are stepped on bit by bit by people or animals.

For today, Lin Feng wanted to buy horses rather than cattle. Lakeside Ranch was indeed short of a few riding horses.

He was interested in a horse that was red all over, the same color as a ripe jujube, with not a single hair on it from head to tail.

The owner asked for $60,000, saying that the horse had the pedigree to win the American Breeders' Cup Classic.

David quietly told Lin Feng that this man was bragging.

"If what he said is true, then the price of $60,000 for such a horse is obviously too little. If what he says is false, it is certainly not worth the price, even though the horse's coat is very beautiful."

Lin Feng sensed the horse through his super power. As David said, it was a good thing but not a good one.

Then I went to the next fence and looked at several horses one after another. They were all average and could be bought or not.

Since it is an ordinary riding horse, the budget for each horse is between two thousand and five thousand US dollars. If it is too expensive, I will feel that I have been taken advantage of, unless I meet someone with great potential like Joey.
