Lisko’s American Life

After living in the ranch for a few days, Yassin returned to New York satisfied with some short stories and poems written by Lisko these days. Of course, there was Lu Bo who was reluctant to leave. eating steak, snacks.

However, the cultural company was busy with affairs, and there were already several phone calls, so there was no other way but to follow Yashin with a sullen face.

The manuscripts that Lisko gave to Yassin include Jack London's "Before Adam" and "Love of Life", as well as the classic O. Henry's "The Last Leaf" and "The Gift of the Magi". Liskot and Yassin's explanation It was written in his spare time before, and Yashin certainly wasn't picky. From the perspective of his 20 years of editing, they are all fine works.

The poems are written by Cummings, because most of the short poems of this poet are about love, which is in line with what Lisko can write at his current age.

After seeing off the guests, Lisko also began to pack his bags and arrange things, preparing for his own trip.

Lisko planned to go to Iceland, known as the "Land of the Gods", because it has the purest air and water and the best hot springs in the world. Or because Iceland is a mysterious country: Compared with other Nordic countries, Iceland seems very primitive, and people are very close to nature.

There are a lot of things that need to be brought, a change of clothes, a passport, a first aid kit and an indispensable camera for travel.

Because it is the beginning of June, Lisko checked the guide, and the temperature in Iceland is 7-12 degrees throughout the summer, so you still need to take a coat.

To Iceland, you can generally fly to Reykjavik via Icelandair via Frankfurt. There are famous scenic spots Blue Lagoon and Ice Spring City nearby.

The timing of Lisko's trip is a bit late. If it was earlier between January and March, you can arrange exciting activities such as ice skating, ice fishing, snowmobiles and off-road hunting trips in Reykjavik. .

Rooster cares about the ranch, and Lisko doesn't need to be too concerned. The more time passed, the more Lisko felt that it was a wise decision to hire Rooster to work.

The affairs of the investment company are also proceeding according to the plan, as long as they can enter the market before the U.S. Treasury Department announces the takeover on September 7th, the plan arranged by Lisko is to fully withdraw in mid-August, not to eat the last piece of meat, so as not to be locked up.

Lisko was also observing the news from the other side of the ocean, and the Olympic Games were in full swing. The disaster that had a great impact in his memory did not happen, and Lisko was also relieved.

There is another big event. Lisko arranged for the cowboy to move the villa he lives in now after he left. He planned to level up the heavy building and build a larger manor, because it is estimated that Lisko will spend most of the rest of his life here. After spending time, he is not very willing to go to those first-tier cities to live with others, so he plans to rebuild his residence.

I had always thought this way, but I never had a good time. Lisko’s villa was built by his father many years ago. Although the house is very solid, the decoration and style have shown some dilapidation.

I just took advantage of this trip to deal with this, and when I come back, I can live in a new house directly, seamlessly.

If you want to speed up the construction, it is impossible to hire the construction companies of these big men in the United States. Their timekeeping is more than three months, of course Lisko can’t wait, and the craftsmanship is not very reassuring. Every day, the sun sets and the work is stopped. up.

Lisko found the branch of the Continental Construction Company in Cordorola State, and reported for a little more than a month. Lisko had already invited the person in charge and the designer to come over for negotiation and on-site inspection.

The appointed time came soon, Lisko saw a car coming in from the gate of the ranch, and went downstairs to greet him.

"Hey, I'm Lisco, welcome."

Lisko's speaking of Chinese did not cause much fluctuation. The guests who came were two middle-aged men with yellow skin and black hair, who introduced themselves.

"Hello, Mr. Li, I am Wen Liang, the person in charge of the company, and this is our designer Sun Qi."

Lisko stepped forward to shake hands.

The two visitors had checked Lisko's specific information before, which was the basic means for them to get the order. They knew that the customer this time was a very famous young writer with a high status in the American literary circle, so they also found out Liske has Chinese ancestry, so I am not surprised that he speaks Chinese.

"We read in the information that Mr. Li is proficient in Chinese and is a language genius. I saw him today and he really deserved his reputation. I thought he was back in China." As the person in charge, Wen Liang of course started to exchange pleasantries. Heavy build house, it can be seen that a sociable professional.

"Come on, enter the house." Lisko led the guest into the house and poured tea.

"This is a Chinese green tea from a friend, let's taste it."

Of course Wen Liang was full of praise, after some pleasantries, Lisko got to the point.

"You have also seen the task this time. The current house was built by my father many years ago, and it has some history, but now it seems a bit crowded. I often need to receive guests here, and I am facing a situation where there are not enough rooms."

Wen Liang looked around, and could tell that although Lisko's design and decoration were very artistic, it still couldn't conceal the dilapidation of the house.

"My requirement is to build it quickly. We have already discussed this matter on the phone, and the other thing is to be firm. I will find an evaluation company for acceptance during the acceptance. Because of the weather here, I don't want to even build the house one day. Scratched away with people."

Lisko took a sip of tea and joked.

"Don't worry about that, what we require of ourselves is firmness." Wen Liang put down his cup and slapped his chest loudly.

Sun Qi who was on the side spoke, "Mr. Li, is your area still this big?"

If there is only such a large area, there is no point in rebuilding. The land occupation has not been expanded, and the rooms are still not enough.

"No, no, no, I bought a two-acre location behind the room, so with the current land occupation, I have already drawn the approximate area, and I will take you to see it later." There is no one's land behind the ranch, Lisko The villa was in the innermost part of the ranch, and he bought it before he went to the town to hand over some points in advance.

The two looked around again, and took pictures of the range and terrain with their cameras.

Lisko has been walking around with him all the time, talking about his own ideas, and these requirements will be absorbed together when designing the house.

What Lisko wants most is a greenhouse, which can also be on the roof. As for the type of house, he still prefers the kind of castle that his mentor has. Of course, modern elements must be added, and it should not be so big. Many rooms.

Lisko has always been very greedy for the library in his tutor's house, and made up his mind to get one himself. To him, all he has to pay is money, but he hasn't used much of his income all the time. Hobby body.

After making an agreement with the construction company to receive the design drawings by mail, Lisko bid farewell to the two of them.
