"They are so arrogant, do the sheriffs in the town just ignore them?"

Miranda asked angrily.

"Huh, sheriff? They have long been bought by the people of those gangs. Without their indulgence, do you think the people of these gangs would dare to be so ostentatious?"

Old Tom said angrily.

"But, if they are so arrogant, can no one control them?"

Miranda asked in disbelief.

"Who dares to care? The last one who dared to resist was burned to death in the house by the whole family."

Old Tom shook his head and sighed.

"how so?"

Miranda muttered to herself.

"Is there anything you can do?"

Miranda turned her head to look at Zhang Tuohai, she had no choice but to count on Zhang Tuohai.

"I do have a few plans, but it's not just my own business. We need everyone to work together. Otherwise, even if I help everyone get the fruit back, everyone won't be able to keep it, right?"

Zhang Tuohai said.

It's okay to ask him to help, but he can't just do it himself, and he also has his own goals and needs these people as help.

"Do you really have a way?" Old Tom looked at Zhang Tuohai with eyes full of light, he had had enough of this kind of life.

"Of course, but it's not enough just to be myself, I still need the help of a lot of people. I hope that I can gather all the farmers around and bring everyone's strength together, so that the probability of success will be much higher. "

Zhang Tuohai said.

"That's fine." Old Tom patted his chest and replied, "I grew up in this area. I am familiar with every farm, and I will call them all in the afternoon."

"Then I'll trouble you."

Zhang Tuohai nodded.

"I'm going to cook for you. I've been hungry for so long."

Old Tom said, turned around and went into the kitchen to cook.

"My uncle's dishes are very delicious. I must try them later."

Miranda poked Zhang Tuohai with her arm and said.

"Really? Then I'm still looking forward to it."

Zhang Tuohai was interested.

However, after a while, Old Tom came out with three plates of instant spaghetti and put them on the table: "There's nothing to eat, let's make a living."

"Uncle, do you have tomatoes? I remember the tomatoes here are delicious."

Miranda felt a little unbelievable. Her uncle was very generous. When guests came to the house, they always brought out the best. In the end, it took a long time to make instant pasta, which made her a little unbelievable.

"Tomatoes were taken away by United Fruit Industry, all the farms have signed agreements with them, and they are not allowed to grow vegetables without permission, and the few farms that are allowed to grow vegetables have also signed a purchase agreement, all vegetables and fruits. They are all shipped to the lighthouse country for sale, and are not allowed to be listed locally. In the current market, only these fast food products are sold in the lighthouse country."

Old Tom said helplessly.

"How could this be?" Hearing old Tom's words, Miranda felt a little weird.

She really couldn't imagine that people could be so bad.

Forced to sign agreements, raised water prices, lowered the purchase price of avocados, forced the purchase of fruits and vegetables, and dumped cola and fast food.

"Don't think about it, you have diabetes." Old Tom fiddled with the pasta on the plate with his fork.

"What about insulin?"

"It's very expensive, and it's very rare." Old Tom said helplessly, "At least I'm lucky here, and I can still buy a few. The pharmacies in other towns are basically distributors of Coke, selling them to diabetics. The human therapeutic product is Coke.

Old Tom threw the fork in his hand onto the plate: "I won't eat it, I'll go find them now."

Having said that, old Tom picked up his hat and walked outside.

"Feel sorry"

Miranda didn't know what to say, so she apologized to Zhang Tuohai.

"It's okay, it wasn't your fault in the first place."

Zhang Tuohai rubbed Miranda's head soothingly.

"Eat it first, take a bite, and wait for the evening to see if I can get something else."

Zhang Tuohai said.

Old Tom was very quick in his work, and he quickly found all the farmers around him.

A group of people sat around.

"We're all here, what's the solution?"

an old cowboy asked impatiently.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are facing two dilemmas now," Zhang Tuohai raised his finger. "The first one is your current water shortage dilemma, and the second one is the problem of being troubled by gangsters."

"That's right, which one do you have a solution to?"

the old cowboy asked.

"As long as you are willing to cooperate with me, I can solve it."

Zhang Tuohai said.

"It can be solved? How is it possible?" the old cowboy said in disbelief. "We have tried dozens of solutions, but none of them can be solved. You can solve it. What are you going to do?"

"How to do it is my business. The request for you is very simple, that is, cooperate with me fully."

Zhang Tuohai said.

"Of course, I know that you definitely don't believe me now, so I will do something iconic first to prove my ability, and then you will decide whether to believe me, what do you think?"

Zhang Tuohai said.

Dozens of old cowboys looked at each other and nodded. For them, Zhang Tuohai was the last straw. If they didn't seize this opportunity, the gang would force them into bankruptcy, and they had no way out.

"Okay, we decided to trust you once, what support do we need?"

an old cowboy asked.

"It's very simple. It was Viper who came to extort money just now, right~www.mtlnovel.com~ Where is the headquarters of this organization? Just tell me the address."

Zhang Tuohai said.

"So simple?" an old cowboy asked in disbelief.

"It's as simple as that, I'll show my sincerity, and I hope to get your sincerity in the future." Zhang Tuohai said confidently.

"This, I know, at 233 Helu Street in Straw City, my son works at the car wash opposite."

said an old cowboy.

"The straw becomes Helu Street, right? Do you know the way?"

Zhang Tuohai turned his head and asked Miranda.

"I know, my primary school and middle school are over there. There is a beautiful lake outside the city. I like to feed wild ducks there."

Miranda showed a look of memory.

"It's a pity that Crystal Lake is gone." An old cowboy said regretfully.

"Yeah, since the dam was built, Crystal Lake has been completely dry, and there is no place to fish." Another old cowboy said, "I haven't fished for years."

"Very good, then let's go to Straw City now." Zhang Tuohai stood up and said.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of old cowboys, the two drove in Old Tom's pickup towards the direction of Straw City.
