North American Rough Police: Starting from the Los Angeles Patrol

Lunch at noon is quite rich, including barbecue, smoked fish, steak, stewed pig's trotters, sausages, cheese-baked lobster, vegetable salad, fruit salad...

Most of the dishes come from the Rock family's own ecological farm, which is open to the public and provides various leisure activities such as strawberry picking, fostering cattle and sheep, and pumpkin picking competitions. The annual turnover exceeds US$300 million.

Even the red wine that goes with the meal is made from grapes from his own vineyard, but the taste is very average, so it doesn't mean that something made by himself is good.

In fact, the grapes produced in the Locke family's vineyard are not suitable for winemaking. The vineyard mainly grows redgloble that is sold around the world. The revenue from the vineyard has even exceeded the revenue from the ranch.

On the long dining table, Jester Locke sat in the middle. Locke and Marian Leebo sat on his right side, and his two uncles and aunts sat opposite them.

The Locke family doesn't talk about table manners. Chatting while eating is their table manners.

First, his father Li Bo talked about the situation on Wall Street and analyzed the recent economic situation, including why inflation is getting worse and the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates.

Henry talked about the situation on the farm this year, such as coyotes breeding too fast and illegal immigrants invading the farm.

Lucy added some farm revenue data for the first half of the year.

The farm is a family property and everyone receives dividends.

Sophia mentioned that she has recently been in contact with some Chinese customers, including fruit importers. Next time the customers come to Los Angeles, she plans to take them to visit the family vineyard to see if she can expand exports to the Chinese market.

Locke and Glenn didn't talk much. They were both disciplined troops, so they didn't have much to talk about, and they weren't suitable for talking at the dinner table.

Although his mother didn't say anything, she always controlled the rhythm of the dinner table. Her dominance was a habit she had formed since she was a child.

After finishing the serious chat, we started chatting, chatting about recent interesting things, commenting on the food on the table, and complaining about the policies of the Democratic Party.

Because Jester is a member of the NRA (National Rifle Association of the United States), the Locke family are all supporters of the Republican Party, and it is common for them to complain about the Democratic Party.

Jester Locke had a limited appetite due to his age, so he finished early, drank red wine, and chatted with everyone from time to time, always with a smile on his face.

Henry Locke looked at Locke, who had been listening to everyone's chat, and asked Marian and Li Bo: "What's going on? Why is Locke so quiet today? Did you train him again?"

Marianne said angrily: "Do you think he will be like you and never grow up in his whole life?"

Marianne has absolute bloodline suppression over her two younger brothers.

Even though Henry Locke looked very gangster, he could only admit defeat when facing Marianne. He looked embarrassed and retorted: "Why haven't I grown up? I already have two children, and Rand can get married!"

In the Locke family, apart from Jester Locke, Henry and Locke have the best relationship, because their previous personalities were really similar, and they were both very reckless and fiery types.

Even though he later had his own son Rand, he still loved Locke. He felt that Rand was too weak and not like a cowboy.

Marianne swung the red wine glass and said with a proud look on her face: "You can let Locke cook a dish tonight. He recently learned a Chinese dish, which is very good!"

Jester looked at Locke in disbelief, "Jesus, is this still my grandson?"

Lucy said expectantly: "Locke, you can tell me what ingredients you need later..."

Although it was agreed long ago, Locke was still a little embarrassed and replied: "The pork ribs are enough, they need to be marinated first..."

Marian did not stop showing off her baby, and went on to say: "Not only can he cook, but he has also decided to bid farewell to his previous chaotic life. He has a regular girlfriend, who is a top student at Harvard Medical School and works in Western Medicine. Darsenay Medical Center…”

Everyone was amazed again. Sophia Locke put down her knife and fork and asked, "What department does Locke's girlfriend belong to?"

Marianne glanced at Locke and replied: "It seems to be surgery?"

Locke also nodded and said, "Yes, surgery!"

Sophia Locke looked tense and said: "Locke, ask your girlfriend if she knows Professor Harold Caldwell from the Department of Cardiac Surgery. I have been trying to contact him recently and want to invite him to dinner..."

She explained: "I have a Chinese client who made an appointment for Professor Harold Caldwell's heart surgery, but it was scheduled to be three years later. Based on this client's condition, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait that long!"

Locke didn't even know who Professor Harold Caldwell was. Apart from physical communication, he and Jennifer Glenn rarely talked about work matters.

But this matter is not a big problem, he replied: "I will ask her later..."

Marianne looked relaxed and revealed another piece of information, "It shouldn't be a big problem. Jennifer's mother is Lauren Anderson, the president of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center..."

The atmosphere at the table suddenly became tense, as everyone realized the importance of the president of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. He was a real big shot.

American families also attach great importance to class improvement. Although the Locke family also belongs to the wealthy class, they are at a relatively low level.

Sophia Locke said seriously: "Marian, I think you should pay attention to Locke's relationship..."

Marian nodded and replied: "I take it very seriously. I have already given him my g55 for a date!"

Locke couldn't help but rolled his eyes, you just want to change your car, okay?

He really wanted to tell him that he and Jennifer were just sex partners.

Forget it, we can’t ruin the atmosphere.

Because he was underage and could not drink, Jet was assigned to sit at the end of the dining table with Hannah, Olivia, and the others, and he also took on a very important task, taking care of his younger sister and brother.

Looking at Locke who was next to him and becoming the focus of the dinner table, this made him feel a little depressed. He was obviously better.

Hannah ate her green salad and whispered, "You're so childish!"

Jet turned to look at him with an unkind expression, and Hannah looked like she had seen through it all. "Everyone liked him when he was a bastard, let alone now!"

After the meal, Li Bo and Marianne were called into the study by Jester. Seeing that both of them looked nervous, Locke guessed that it was related to the separation between the two some time ago.

Henry Locke came over and put his arm around Locke's shoulders, "Come on, let me see if your marksmanship has improved?"

"Henry, give Locke to me. I'll come to him if I have something to do..."

Henry glanced at his brother and saw that he had a serious look on his face. He shrugged and said, "Okay, business matters..."

Locke followed Glenn Locke out of the villa in confusion. Glenn walked to a sink. There was no one around, and the breeze was blowing, mixed with the smell of fresh cow dung.

He leaned on the fence, turned to Locke and asked, "Do you know why I heard about you in the IRS?"

Locke shook his head, and Glenn said: "The IRS is currently checking Lapd's accounts..."

"what!"

Locke was taken aback. This was the notorious IRS, an existence that Americans could not get rid of from birth to death.

Glenn was a little dissatisfied with Locke's surprise, but Marianne also said that this kid was mature, "I know that Marianne is very familiar with Captain Davis, but wait until you reveal this information to her..."

Seeing Locke staring at him in astonishment, he became even more unhappy, "You don't really think that the IRS is a piece of metal, do you? The senior management of LAPD probably know everything they should know, and they probably want to check through the IRS." How many illegal police officers are there? As for the level of police supervisor, no one should know yet..."

Of course Locke was pretending, he nodded hurriedly and said: "I know, uncle!"

Then he asked: "Uncle, how many illegal police officers do we have in the Wilshire Police Department?"

Glenn frowned and said dissatisfied: "Hey, boy, I let you tip off the information so that you can buy a good deal from your boss. Don't push yourself too far. Besides, I am not responsible for the Wilshire Police Department... "

Locke smiled sarcastically, moved in his heart, and said, "Uncle, you must investigate the West Canyon Police Station. I suspect that some police officers are colluding with interest groups..."

Glenn frowned, "What's going on? Let me tell you..."
