After breakfast in the morning, Xiao Feng and Xiao Jinyang drove out two F150s and took Guo Yiyan and others to Helena Airport. At 10 o'clock this morning, a flight was flying to New York.

Compared with China, the United States has more developed air transportation. Small cities like Helena with tens of thousands of residents also have direct flights to big cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Of course, most of the flights on these routes are small and medium-sized passenger planes such as Airbus A320 and Boeing 737. There is no need to say that there is much comfort, and the price is that it is cheap.

In fact, because of the highly developed air transportation industry in the United States, the well-connected highway network and the vigorous automobile culture, the American train passenger transportation business has shrunk to its limit, which is in sharp contrast with China.

In the United States, ordinary people travel far away or take flights or drive by themselves. They will not be like China, and most of them can only rely on rail transit.

…………

Looking at Xu Mengyao standing at the door of the ranch, Xue Lihua and two children, Guo Yiyan felt a reluctance suddenly emerged from her heart.

After two years in the United States, Guo Yiyan did not go home in order to save money on air tickets. Although she could occasionally video online with her parents, her thoughts were always indelible.

During the two days at the "Dream Ranch", Xue Lihua and even the warm hospitality of the Xiao family to Guo Yiyan made him feel the warmth of his relatives and naturally developed feelings.

If the school hadn't started, Guo Yiyan would have wanted to continue to stay in the "Dream Ranch" for a while!

Xue Lihua has made an appointment with Guo Yiyan to come to the ranch during Christmas and take the "Ni Ni" to return to China during the Spring Festival.

"Swallow, come to the ranch when the school is on vacation. Anyway, the plane tickets in America are cheap!" Xiao Feng said to Guo Yiyan while skillfully turning the steering wheel: "Remember your brother's phone number, call if you encounter any trouble in New York!"

Xiao Feng naturally saw his parents' enthusiasm for Guo Yiyan. Of course, in order to take care of Guo Yiyan's self-esteem, Xiao Feng naturally did not need to take care of him. In some necessary places, providing help is what Xiao Feng could do.

"Thank you, Brother Xiaofeng!" Guo Yiyan was not a shy person, nodded and agreed seriously.

In the past two days, Guo Yiyan has learned about the situation of "Jinghu Group" and Xiao Feng through the Internet, and knows that Xiao Feng's promise is very rare.

In the United States, the power of the consortium is unimaginable to ordinary people. The good relationship between the "Mirror Lake Group" and the Walton family and the Morgan family is enough to give Xiao Feng enough connections and influence in the United States.

…………

Thirty miles away, two f150s roared in front of the simple hall of Helena Airport, attracting a lot of attention.

For the Americans, luxury cars from the three major brands of Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi may not necessarily conquer them, but muscle cars like the f150 are most in line with the rough aesthetics of the Americans and have extremely high popularity.

After getting off the car, Guo Yiyan and others received a small box given by the Xiao family, filled with some Xiao Feng., dried goods made by Xue Lihua, bacon and other delicacies.

Because they had already had a very deep impression of the various delicacies of the Xiao family in the past two days, they did not refuse and accepted it with a smile.

When he was going through the security check, Guo Yiyan found that there was an Apple iPhone 5s and an iPad in his box, and a feeling of emotion surged into his heart.

In the past two days, Xu Mengyao saw that Guo Yiyan was still using an old feature phone. Because she was worried that the little girl would refuse to give it to her in person, she simply put the remaining new products she had bought in Los Angeles last time into the box and made it a fait accompli.

Xu Mengyao herself was also a person who studied in the United States. She knew the difficulty of studying abroad, not to mention that Guo Yiyan, a young girl, has made her feel good.

…………

Xiao Feng and his son did not stay at the airport for too long. When Guo Yiyan and others entered the airport hall, they drove away and returned to the ranch.

Today is Sunday, and they have agreed to take her to the small lake on the ranch to take her boat, and they can't go back on their promises.

In fact, as the affairs of the ranch were on track, most of the time and energy of the Xiao family revolved around two dolls, which was also the norm for every family.

When they returned to the ranch, it was just ten o'clock. The little girl and Yu'er couldn't wait any longer and stood on the steps of the castle and looked forward to it.

‘Dream Lake’ is about 20 kilometers away from ‘Maple Leaf Castle’. Although it can be reached by car, it is a simple highway and the speed is not too fast. Therefore, Xiao Feng decided that the whole family will have a picnic by the lake today.

When they returned home, their mother and wife had already prepared all kinds of camping equipment and ingredients. Xiao Feng just needed to move them one by one to the f150 car bucket and then they could set off.

In order to avoid the impact of asphalt, cement, heavy metals and various chemical agents on the ranch, the roads in the ranch are basically the simplest earth and rock roads, and only pickup trucks with high chassis and high horsepower can adapt to this road conditions.

Fortunately, due to the nourishment of the "Space Spirit Spring" and the vigorous vitality of the "Space Ranch", many roads are covered with grass, and there will be no thick smoke.

Xiao Feng drove the car and looked at the rolling grassland. He had to deal with various problems with the two dolls. Although he was a little tired, he was also happy.

Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao have decided that when Yu'er's baby can go to kindergarten next year, they will have another child.

For Chinese people, if conditions permit, they naturally hope that the more children will be better, and the concept of "more children and more blessings" has been deeply imprinted in their blood.

Neither Xiao Feng nor Xu Mengyao were civil servants in China, and their children were born in the United States would not violate the country's family planning policy. The Xiao family's economy was not difficult. Taking advantage of Xu Mengyao's young, they had two more children. This was a consensus they reached after marriage.

In fact, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao decided to go to America. In addition to the development of the "Jinghu Group", children are also a very important factor.

When the car was parked on the hillside by the lake, even though she had seen it several times before, Xiao Feng couldn't help but be shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of him!

"Dream Lake" was not originally called this name, but after the founding of "Dream Ranch", it was called this by the ranch cowboys and gradually continued.

The "Dream Lake" covers an area of ​​more than 10,000 acres, which is more than ten times larger than the Mirror Lake. The vast water surface is endless and looks extremely spectacular. The "Dream Lake" is connected to the Missouri River. It has a source of living water. Its water quality is pure. From a distance, it looks like a large piece of jade inlaid with green carpet.

Because the Missouri River brought a large number of fishery resources, it became a place where a large number of migratory birds stayed and lived. Xiao Feng saw a large group of North American small snow geese for food on the grass by the lake.

The roar of the engine did not disturb the foraging of these snow geese. They just looked up and then lowered their heads to eat grass, looking calm.

It is early September, and snow geese need to supplement their nutrients as much as possible and store enough fat. When the cold winter comes, they will have enough energy to take the young birds away from the north and go to southern California to spend the winter.

Snow geese are determined to be vegan, and their hard beaks are suitable for digging the roots of underground plants, so they can find enough food as long as there is grassland.

"Grandpa, grandma, hurry up!" Nini and Yuer got off the car and shouted immediately!

Every time I came to the lake, the two little guys were used to feeding Xueyan, so they would run to the Xueyan group as soon as they got off the car. My parents were carrying plastic buckets filled with corn to them from behind.

Because he ran too fast, Yu'er fell on the grass and turned several mists, but the little guy got up as if nothing had happened, shouting that his sister would wait for him, and ran up again.

Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao looked at their son's strong performance and smiled at each other, and even the actions of preparing lunch could not help but speed up a little.

Before getting married, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao had read some reports, believing that children are cared for and even spoiled by too many people, and it is easy to develop an arrogant personality. The wealth of the Xiao family determines that children are well-off when they are born. How to cultivate good character and qualities of children has become the biggest problem facing Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao.

After getting married, the two specially called the elderly from both families together and asked them to educate their children as strictly as possible in order to develop their strong personality.

Especially Yu'er, as a boy, was strictly required in many aspects. Gradually, his macho temperament was quite strong, which also made Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao secretly feel proud.

My parents took the children to feed Xueyan. Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao first combined the camping tent and tableware, and took out the fishing rod to prepare for fishing!

Because it is connected to the Missouri River, there are countless fishing resources in the "Dream Lake". Xiao Feng has even seen big carp with a body length of more than one meter. This is a good wild material and is rare in China.

The United States does not like to eat fish with a lot of thorns, which is destined to proliferate Asian carp, a strong fish, on the North American continent. They have even become thorns in the side of the American government and thorns in the flesh!

In the United States, Asian carp usually refers to eight species of fish produced in Asia, including bigheads, bluefish, grass carp and silver carp. In the 1970s, in order to keep aquaculture facilities clean, the American government imported Asian carp from Southeast Asia and invested them in some aquaculture lake areas in southern America to clean water bodies.

More than ten years later, the southern lake area of ​​America encountered floods, and Asian carp took the opportunity to escape to wild rivers and reproduce in large quantities. According to statistics from American government departments in 2011, in some parts of the United States, the proportion of Asian carp in biomass has exceeded 95.

American media reported that if Asian carp enters the Great Lakes, it will compete with the original fish species for food and space, and will greatly reduce the number of fish that are of great value to fishermen, and will also cause great losses to the Great Lakes area's annual commercial fishery. Asian carp breeds in large quantities in the Mississippi River Basin, which will also affect 31 states and 40 mainland US mainland.

Asian carp makes the United States very nervous. On the official website of the US Department of Agriculture, a manual compiled by the US Asian Carp Regional Commission mentioned: Do not hold live Asian carp; do not hold Asian carp for interstate operations; and do not throw it into new waters even if it is a dead Asian carp.

In order to prevent Asian carp from breeding everywhere and destroying the local ecological environment, the American government and even the people have racked their brains, but they still cannot stop the spread of Asian carp on the North American continent.

Today, the Missouri River already has a large number of Asian carp, which is a headache for the local government!

The Montana government even invested in encouraging people to catch Asian carp for food, but it had little effect because the Americans believed that Asian carp had a strong earthy smell, and the prickly Asian carp did not meet the American eating habits.

However, for Chinese people, this wild carp is simply a gift from God. The Chinese cowboys who live in the "Dream Ranch" are very happy!

Just as Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao started fishing, several cowboys who were on the run also drove to the lake to fish.

Xiao Feng discovered that in addition to the three Chinese cowboys, there were two foreigners. It seems that even Americans would fall in love with this taste after tasting the taste of chopped pepper fish heads and boiled fish.

In fact, the Missouri River, the "Dream Lake" has a relatively small number of Asian carp. I heard that on the Illinois River, where the most Asian carp is flooded, there are no one who can play sledding or rowing, because frightened Asian carp can easily jump out of the water, causing a "traffic accident".

Over the years, the proliferation of Asian carp in the United States has become a hot topic of domestic media coverage. Many companies have even begun to target this market, but there has not made much progress.

Chinese people are more able to accept fresh fish. Imported Asian carp is not cheap and is frozen, so they naturally cannot win the favor of domestic consumers.

Over the years, the American government has invested a lot of money and manpower to reduce the invasion of Asian carp on the waters of the Great Lakes, but the effect is average.

Some domestic netizens joked that the American government might as well provide funds to Chinese tourists to pay for air tickets and accommodation fees, and call on Chinese people to go to America to eat Asian carp, which is a killing two birds with one stone!

The various discussions surrounding the topic of Asian carp make the Internet and the media quite lively, but they don’t have much impact on the “Dream Ranch”.

Everyone is used to fishing by the lake when they have time, or even sailing a boat to the lake to "shoot fish". The Asian carp you catch can eat! This activity has become an important direction for ranch cowboys to spend their spare time, and everyone is happy with it.

In China, wild Asian carp are basically sold at around 30rmb/kg, but in the United States, you can catch them at will, without even any procedures and permits, which is in sharp contrast to other protected fish.

Sometimes, the same thing will have completely different consequences under different civilizations! r1152
