Chapter 258
Old John brought two glasses of water and put them in front of Tang Ming and Mike. They thanked them and drank them.

After drinking the water, Tang Ming put down his glass and asked, "Old John, where is your family?"

Old John said: "Since my wife died of illness three years ago, I only have Alcmene as a family member. Until now Hercules is born, I have another family member."

Tang Ming apologized, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked about this."

Old John said: "It's okay, I'm used to it."

Then Old John talked about his own affairs. He is over 70 years old this year and has no children. Alcmene was adopted by him and his wife seven years ago. Until his wife died three years ago, he raised Alcmene alone. Kemene treated Alcmene as his own child.

But it is very expensive to raise a big brown bear of [-]-[-] kg, and it costs thousands of Australian dollars to manage the food every month. After Alcmene was bred last year, it cost even more. As a last resort, Old John put himself in the market The house in the center was sold and this house was bought in the suburbs so that Alcmene and Hercules could barely support them.

After listening to Old John's story, Tang Ming and Mike were very moved. Tang Ming said, "Old John, is there anything I can help you with?"

Old John hesitated for a moment, then shook his head firmly, and said, "No need, I can support Alcmene and Hercules myself."

"Old John, our boss wants to adopt Hercules."

Tang Ming hesitated for a moment, and when he didn't know what to say, Mike spoke first.

Old John's expression changed, and he said forcefully, "Sorry, I won't give Hercules to anyone else."

Mike said: "Old John, you are so old now that you can no longer work. You need to sell your house to support Alcmene. How can you support Alcmene and Hercules now? If you take Hercules Give it to our boss for adoption, our boss will give you a lot of money, enough to support Alcmene in the future..."

"Mike, don't say it." These words that Mike said gave people a feeling of making things worse, so Tang Ming interrupted him.

Mike shrugged and said nothing.

After listening to Mike's words, Old John didn't speak, but his face changed drastically, showing his inner struggle and hesitation.

What Mike said was also what he was most worried about. Now that the money to buy a house has been spent, it will be very difficult to support Alcmene with his own pension and subsidies, let alone add Hercules.

But Hercules was his family, so he said, "I will not sell Hercules."

Mike persuaded: "How can this be considered a sale? Our boss and family members like Hercules very much, and just want to adopt Hercules, and even if you don't give Hercules to our boss, he will see your situation." It will help you. Also, look at Big Fatty. Our boss’s family lives very well. Our boss has five or six pets, including a white tiger. They all live very well, so Old John, you Don't worry about Hercules being mistreated."

"Wang Wang Wang..."

Fatty lay beside Tang Ming's legs and watched the two brown bears play. When Mike mentioned his name, he immediately raised his head and called him a few times, as if asking him what he called him for.

"It's okay, just lie down." Tang Ming smiled and patted Fatty's head.

Old John looked at the lively and well-behaved chubby, and then at the brown bear mother and child, feeling very reluctant, but knowing what Mike said was right, he fell into hesitation for a while.

Seeing Old John's expression, Tang Ming said, "Old John, don't worry that you won't see Hercules in the future. Even if I adopt him, you and Alcmene are always welcome to my ranch to see him, or You and Alcmene miss it, and I can bring it over to see you, besides, I would like to invite you and Alcmene to my ranch now, and you can make a decision after reading it."

"Okay, Don, then I'll go to your ranch." Old John hesitated for a long time before making a decision.

Tang Ming and Mike looked at each other and laughed, knowing that Old John had basically agreed.

Tang Ming stood up and said, "Old John, let's go. Can I call a truck over here?"

Old John said, "No, I have my own car."

After speaking, he shouted: "Alcmene, come here."

The big brown bear ran over obediently, and the little bear followed behind his mother.

Old John led the big brown bear and the little bear out, and Tang Ming and Mike led the big fat and followed behind.

There is a small van parked in the corner of the yard. Although it is very old, it is painted with various cartoon patterns of brown bears. It looks very loving. This should be the old John who usually took Alcmene and Hercules out. car.

It can be seen from this that Alcmene and Hercules are the whole life of Old John, and an old man gave all his love to these two bears.

At this moment, Tang Ming suddenly had a sense of guilt in his heart, as if he had become a human trafficker, trying to steal the child from the mother.

Mike said, "Boss, I..."

"Stop talking, just take care of Old John and Alcmene's lives in the future, and let them see Hercules more." Tang Ming knew what Mike was going to say, and interrupted him before he could say it .

Old John opened the carriage door and pulled out a ladder from inside. Alcmene walked up it skillfully. It seems that Old John often pulled Alcmene out, and then Old John carried Hercules up again and closed the door. car door.

Tang Ming said, "Mike, you help Old John drive."

"Yeah." Mike nodded.

Mike walked over and said a few words to Old John, who nodded in agreement, and they got into the van together.

Tang Ming walked out of the yard, got into his car with Big Fatty, and drove ahead.

After walking for more than 40 minutes, he returned to the villa on the Gold Coast. Tang Ming parked the car in the yard, got out of the car, and watched Mike drive in the van.

Old John got out of the car and was very surprised to see the villa. He always thought that Tang Ming was just a small rancher, but now it seems that he is a rich man.

Mike patted Old John on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Old John, let Alcmene and Hercules out first, we're going to the ranch by helicopter."

"Okay." Old John agreed, opened the door of the carriage, first carried Hercules out, and then Alcmene slowly came down from above.

Tang Ming said to Big Fatty: "Big Fatty, go play, Dad will come and see you when he has time."

"Wang Wang Wang..."

Big Fatty knew that his father was leaving, so he yelled with some reluctance.
