Start with hooves

Chapter 88 One week later
It rained heavily for more than an hour.

After the rain ended, there was a faint earthy smell in the air, and as the temperature continued to warm up, it was so hot that it made people breathe heavily.

Fortunately, the sea breeze is constantly blowing, and the air conditioner is still on in the hotel, so it will not be too uncomfortable.

The dust on the coconut leaves and flowers was washed away by the heavy rain, and even the umbrellas in the hotel garden became brighter in color.

The muddy water was mixed with leaves and flowed into the outdoor swimming pool in the garden. The water in the pool became extremely turbid, and it could not be used again until it was cleaned.

The manager of Kona is taking people to clean up and clean up the water on the floor tiles to prevent guests from falling.

The hotel and the ranch are managed separately. It is estimated that the manager of Kona does not know that this is artificial rainfall, and he is constantly feeling that winter is finally here, and it is rare to have such a heavy rain.

Winter in Hawaii is nothing more than a few degrees Celsius lower temperature, and occasionally encounters some small cold waves from the north. Compared with the hot summer, the environment will become more livable and comfortable.

On the way to check the photovoltaic power plant, Su Rui passed the artificial lake for water storage.

Thanks to several diversion channels that flowed down the Lanai Ridge, the lake is filled today, soaking the surrounding trees.

The soil nearby is dominated by peculiar red soil, causing the entire artificial lake to glow red, and it will become clear after a few hours of precipitation.

Su Rui was a little worried that the freshwater fish raised in the lake might be choked to death by a large amount of sand. There were a few black spots floating on the lake, like small perch fry.

They survived the drought with difficulty, and now they are suffering even more.

With the water in this pond, even if the drought continues in the future, at least there should be no need to worry about watering the pasture for the next month.

Ryegrass has a relatively shallow root system, and watering the soil surface will allow them to thrive.

The pineapple company in the early years did not leave much to Su Rui, except for some worthless warehouses and farm tools, the irrigation equipment leading to many places has come in handy.

Compared with other big islands in Hawaii, the problem of drought and water shortage has always plagued Lanai, so experts choose ryegrass instead of sweet elephant grass, king bamboo grass, etc. with higher yields.

There is nothing anyone can do about the extreme weather this year.

The grass and trees have been washed clean. When the sky clears up, the scenery on the island should be more beautiful. Su Rui went to the photovoltaic power plant on the mountainside to check and found that the hail hadn't affected the surface glass at all.

At least tens of millions of dollars in losses have been reduced, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. If his own equipment was damaged by the hailstones he knocked down, it would be like crying without tears.

With an hourly salary of [-] to [-] dollars an hour for local blue-collar workers, the cost of repairing labor may be more expensive than the cost of the parts themselves.

Cattle and sheep eating fresh grass with water are prone to stomach upset.

Long before the artificial rainfall, the cowboys were ordered by old Andy to work overtime to drive them back to the cattle pen and sheep pen.

Lanai Ranch is home to approximately [-] head of cattle and [-] head of sheep.

Speaking of which, the number is not large, but it is very troublesome to actually drive them away. Fortunately, after nearly a month of practice, these Lanai Island residents have already looked good when they are riding horses and swinging whips.

Encountering a herd of cows on the way back reminded Su Rui of the five cows he was feeding water in the afternoon, so he took a detour to have a look.

Seeing them standing up one by one, even the cow that was pulled to collapse started to chew the grass. Apart from being a little depressed, there seemed to be no major problems in other aspects.

This result made him feel amazing.

During the day, he still looked like he was about to die, but he recovered so quickly. He was a little bit looking forward to what would happen after the large-scale watering.

But it just finished raining.

There is no reason to water it artificially in the next few days, and I have to wait patiently for a few more days...

----------

A week later.

Su Rui's new album has not yet been released, and the two new songs that were released in advance rushed to the top ten of the "Billboard" chart one after another.

That Marshall Branham, who recently got scolded no matter what he posted on the Internet, saw that Suri's song was soaring on the charts, so he simply started to play dead.

Especially a group of Chinese fans of Su Rui, their combat effectiveness is really not weak.

Usually no one takes the lead, and their sense of presence is not strong. This time, Su Rui rushed to the front and firmly occupied the initiative. Many people left messages saying that Su Rui's new song had already hit the charts, and asked where Branham's new song was. .

That guy is really thick-skinned. Although he didn't post a new post, he scolded his mother in the comments a lot.

Su Rui didn't bother to pay attention to this stepping stone, and had already stopped paying attention to this guy.

Recently, in the media, there are quite a few people who praise Su Rui as "the sword is not old". Although he is only 22 years old, it has been more than five years since his last album was released. Enough to make one forget a singer.

Most of the singers who came back after retiring did not do well.

Su Rui has his own resources, and this time he is like a fish in water, using the influence of hype and business to reach the sky in one step.

With the release of the two songs, and the newly established Netflix Entertainment Company, it has influenced the music and film circles at the same time. Silicon Valley and Wall Street are also paying close attention to his movements.

Many organizations organized a delegation to investigate Netflix Entertainment, trying to offer an olive branch and take the lead in building a good relationship.

He obviously stayed on Lanai and didn't move his nest.

Since this week, news about Su Rui has been one after another. Someone even photographed him walking on the beach with two girls in swimsuits, both of whom are very hot.

It's actually Daddario and Thalia the snorkeling instructor.

But this does not prevent the reporters from adding fuel to the story, attracting the attention of countless people who eat melons and...Miss Lily.

I don’t know which tourist was in debt, but actually used his mobile phone to secretly take pictures, and then sold them to a newspaper.

Su Rui sensed something was wrong.

After returning from Los Angeles, Ms. Lily, who had to send messages every day to say good morning and chat about various trivial matters, disappeared. Thirty hours had passed since the last time she sent him a message.

And the news of traveling with the United States broke out, and it was also a day ago.

Although the two had a semi-in-depth exchange before leaving Los Angeles, after calming down and thinking about it carefully, Suri felt that this relationship was crooked from the very beginning. He was with Daddario at the time, and I was very sorry. that girl.

In the past day, Su Rui took out her mobile phone many times, trying to send Miss Lily something, such as making excuses that she was just a tourist, or saying sorry.

However, every time it is played, it is eventually deleted.

This incident was so entangled in his throat that even the report issued by the Stanford University investigation team showed that there was no major problem, which could not cheer Su Rui up.

This is the reason why I used to flirt with women but never dared to provoke a good girl.

If the relationship of mutual use is broken, it will be broken, so that everyone can get together and break up, so as not to hurt others too much. Even if it is mentioned afterwards, you can still praise Su Rui a few times, saying that he is a caring gentleman or something.

Even if she confessed to Ms. Daddario a few days ago that she wanted to be an informal boyfriend and girlfriend, she accepted it calmly. After all, they met out of impulse, and the original intention of getting along with each other was not pure enough.

Girls are greedy for Su Rui's fame and wealth, so why is he greedy for each other's body, there is no need for the two parties to despise each other, they are not children anymore.

Miss Lily was different.

The girl was only 19 years old, with a romantic and lively personality, and a pure heart.

Su Rui could tell that she really liked her, not because she wanted to take advantage of her.

The so-called opportunity to become famous may be very precious to Daddario, full of infinite temptation, but to Lily, it is just icing on the cake, and it does not affect her status as a little rich woman in the slightest.

It is precisely because of this that Su Rui has a headache.

Go lie to her, she's so scumbag.

Not even saying a few words of comfort, it seems to be worse than scum.

After the day passed like a year, I felt confused. After all, I still didn't want the girl to be too sad. I lay alone by the pool and called Lily...
