Hannah was not afraid at all this time. She shook the phone in her hand and said, "Didn't you hear what I said? Jennifer Gray, Locke's girlfriend, took a photo with Ivanka and Tiffany. Ivanka just Updated her instagram…”

Marianne was startled for a moment, but she didn't seem surprised. Her face darkened and she said angrily: "Are you going to turn a deaf ear to what I say? Put down your phone, take care of Olivia, and have a good meal!"

When Hannah saw that Marian was really angry, she immediately put the phone behind her obediently, shrank her head and continued eating.

Because of Hannah's interruption, the relaxed and happy atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became a little weird, and the expressions of Marianne, Li Bo, Glenn, and Sophia all became a little gloomy.

Locke glanced at Marian and Li Bo with curiosity and said, "Jennifer told me to accompany her parents to a banquet in Florida. It turned out to be Mr. President's banquet..."

Only then did he remember that Mar-a-Lago is the current president's vacation estate, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "So, who is Jennifer's father?"

A mother from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center alone does not qualify to be invited to Mar-a-Lago.

"So Jennifer told you about this!"

Marianne forced a smile and replied: "Jennifer's father Sullivan Gray is the chairman of the California Republican Party and the minority leader of the House of Representatives..."

Locke was stunned for a moment, and finally understood why Marian and Li Bo lost their temper last time, and exclaimed: "Wow, they are really big shots!"

Although California is now a state controlled by the Democratic Party, the chairman of the Republican Party is definitely a big shot.

Well, it seems that the House of Representatives is also controlled by the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party is the majority party. After all, the Speaker of the House of Representatives is Nancy Pelosi, an old witch from California.

However, the minority leader of the House of Representatives is definitely a big-shot figure in Washington. After all, he is only one step away from the speaker, who is the third in line to succeed the President of the United States.

Sophia sighed and glanced at Locke regretfully, "Although our family is also a Republican, it is indeed far from Sullivan Gray. However, Jennifer is several years older than Locke, so it is not suitable..."

Glenn gave her a dissatisfied look, "Locke is doing well now. Being associated with politicians is not necessarily a good thing..."

"Okay, okay..."

Jester stopped Glenn and the others from continuing this topic, "The Locke family has never been able to survive today not through marriage, but through ourselves. Let Locke handle his own affairs, and you should not get involved..."

He looked at Li Bo and asked: "Todd, do you think what I mentioned to you last time is feasible? Can it be sold in Los Angeles?"

Li Bo looked embarrassed, "Jester, give me a little more time, I will find a suitable new project, but I'm sorry, I can't accept this. Although the leaves are legal in California, this matter is always for Marianne, Ge Lun, and Locke’s careers are influential..."

It turned out that Jester gave him an idea after knowing that Li Bo had agreed to leave his job and come back to help the farm.

Since the introduction of California's ten bills on leaves, leaves in California have become completely legal. Legally grown and illegally grown leaves are everywhere, and they are quickly spreading.

There are countless people who can plant a few trees in their own homes and become self-sufficient.

So Jester proposed that the farm could apply for a legal leaf cultivation license. Currently, more and more leaves are planted in Lebec, and leaves are definitely the most profitable crop.

This was the first time Locke heard this and was speechless.

Jester is really a genius. He actually thought of letting Li Bo, a Chinese, be a leaf dealer. It seems that he knows nothing about China’s modern history of humiliation!

Every Chinese person will hate leaves.

Moreover, my son is a policeman and I sell leaves. How magical it sounds!

But what was even more magical was that this matter was legal and legal in California. Just when he was about to speak, Glenn on the opposite side spoke first.

He frowned and said: "How could you, Jester, think of planting leaves? Haven't you always been against leaves? I remember that Henry and Matthew were tied to the stable by you and beaten with a horse whip..."

When Henry was exposed, he immediately retorted, "Hey, it made you and..., ahem, but you were not discovered by Jester..."

Seeing Marianne's eyes coming towards her like a sharp sword, he immediately changed his tune.

When Jester saw Alice, Jet, Hannah and other children staring at them curiously, his expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, it's my fault. This matter ends here. My thoughts have always been Nothing has changed. This is something that can corrupt people. Even if the damn law makes it legal, no one from the Locke family is allowed to touch it. I've eaten, you continue..."

After saying that, Jester stood up and left his seat. It was obvious that this wrong suggestion made him feel a little embarrassed.

After Jester left, Glenn asked Henry: "Is illegal leaf cultivation really rampant in Lebec now?"

Henry took a bite of meat, took another sip of beer, and nodded: "There is no way. The land is vast and sparsely populated, and many of them are planted by illegal immigrants. According to information from the Animal Husbandry Association, 600 million illegal plants were confiscated in California last year." For leaves grown illegally in California, the market share of leaves grown illegally has exceeded that of leaves grown legally, resulting in a significant reduction in profits from legal planting..."

"Hey guys, don't talk about this in front of the kids!"

Sofia scolded the two brothers dissatisfied, turned to Li Bo and asked: "Todd, haven't you thought about what to do for the new project? I have three Chinese clients coming back to Los Angeles next month. Maybe I can arrange to meet you then. I have to say that even under the epidemic, China's economy is still outstanding on a global scale..."

Li Bo hurriedly said gratefully: "Very good, I have no problem, waiting for your notification!"

Locke lowered his head and cut the steak on the plate. He thought about the new project at home, and finally found that potion was the best project.

Although the FDA's review of new drugs will be a marathon, once the Locke family gets involved in the pharmaceutical industry, the entire family will be reborn and truly leap into another class.

At worst, big pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer or AbbVie will take shares.

But what happens in the end still has to wait until the laboratory is built and the potion is produced.

He already had a rough idea of ​​what potion to use.

……

In Jester's cigar room, Chester Horton, chairman of the Lebeck Animal Husbandry Association, puffed on Jester's collection of cigars and looked at the handsome Locke through the smoke. Through Jester's introduction, he already knew that this was Locke. The third generation of the farm.

His eyes glanced at Henry again, who exuded a vigorous spirit. It seemed that Henry also agreed!

St. Holden lit the cigarette ashes, turned to Jester and said: "I really envy you, an old guy, who can retire at a young age, unlike me, who still has to run around at such an old age..."

Jester smiled and said, "William took good care of the farm, especially after he started growing hemp. I heard that the profits have doubled several times!"

St. Horton shrugged and said: "There is no way. It is no longer possible to survive simply by grazing, unlike your family that has vineyards and leisure farm subsidies..."

Jester asked: "What happened this time?"

St. Holden's expression condensed and he said in a deep voice: "Grace found something unusual about the tenants of their farm and wanted to go check it out, but was refused. Then she discovered that a group of Mexicans were illegally growing leaves, and the planting sheds were large enough. It's 2000 square meters, and it's even equipped with a separate generator. These sons of bitches are getting more and more cunning..."

Jester said casually: "You can just make a phone call for this kind of thing. Locke Farm can have five people come out this time, and Locke will also go to see the world..."

"Hahaha, if I don't come here in person, how can I smoke your cigar?"

St. Horton showed off the Cuban cigar in his hand and smiled at Locke: "Young people should see more scenes and see blood before they can be considered true cowboys!"
