When he first saw old Thomas, the old man seemed pretty good, so he said to Billy, "I'll go talk to him."
Just as he was about to stand up, Billy gently pressed Ju An's hand, and then shouted to Thomas: "Thomas, come here, come here."
Thomas looked at Billy in surprise, put down the cards in his hand, and walked to the bar.
"Thomas, this gentleman wants to hire a cowboy from the former Straw Hat Farm," Billy introduced.
Ju An stood up and shook hands with Thomas, "Call me Ann, okay, I want to hire an experienced cowboy. I plan to raise about a thousand cows first."
Thomas paused and said, "If there are a thousand cows, two cowboys are a bit too few, and three are a bit too many."
"First a thousand cows, then I'm going to buy a dozen horses and a few hundred sheep. The three of us should be busy," Ju An said, looking at Thomas.
"It should be almost done" Thomas nodded and said.
Next, Ju An discussed the salary with Thomas and gave him $1,500 a month plus insurance. Thomas called his son again.
Old Billy recommended another cowgirl, Nancy.
Then Ju An talked with Thomas to see what else needed to be purchased. As far as Ju An knew, there was only one car and a tractor.
Thomas went outside to look at the F150, then came back and shook his head to Ju An and said: "The traction force is too small, at least it needs a big one and a trailer with cattle and horses."
Only then did Ju An think of what Peter said when he left the car dealership. Then he said to Thomas: "It's still early anyway, let's go to the car dealership later to have a look."
Thomas nodded.
After a while, Nancy and Thomas' son Wynn arrived at the bar one after another. Ju An discussed the treatment with them. The two had no objections and decided to work on the ranch tomorrow afternoon.
After confirming these things, she found a lawyer in the town and signed a contract. After doing this, Nancy said goodbye to everyone and went home to prepare things.
Next, Ju An, Thomas, and Wynn went to another car dealership. This time they met at Thomas's and picked out an F450 King Ranch version, which is also the King of Ranch version. Ju An said that it can tow two unloaded cars.
Black Hawk helicopter. Then it was equipped with a trailer that could carry a dozen cows, and two four-wheel motorcycles were added, which cost nearly $90,000.
Accompanied by Thomas, Ju An went to the supermarket to buy food for four people for a week. He also bought two barrels of gasoline and a barrel of diesel. Ju An took these things back to the ranch that evening.
F450 asked Thomas to drive to the ranch tomorrow, just in time to pick up Nancy. Ju An said goodbye to Thomas and his son, and drove to his new home alone.
On the way, Ju An turned on the radio and found that all the channels played only one kind of music, country music. According to Ju An's understanding of country music, the theme was secret love, love triangle, and broken love.
As Taylor's "oursong" came from the radio, Ju An started humming along with the music.
When we arrived at the door, the sun had not yet set, so we drove the car to the door of the house and stopped. We moved bags of things into the house, and then removed the cloth coverings on the sofa and bed in the house.
I took out the bed sheets and some supplies I bought, went upstairs to the master bedroom, and put on the bed sheets. I took a quick look at them yesterday. Now that these things are completely my own, at first glance, the room is really
It's big. My bedroom is about 40 square meters, the bathroom is more than 10 square meters, and it also has a dressing room of more than 20 square meters.
There are a total of 77 bedrooms in the entire main building, four downstairs and three upstairs. The walkways and living room floors on the first floor are covered with dark red tiles that are dozens of centimeters in size. The dark red color has different shades, but the alternating shades give people a sense of place.
A feeling of oneness.
The upstairs bathroom has dark walnut wood floors and light blue wallpaper on the walls except for the ceramic tiles.
After tidying up his bedroom casually, Ju An went downstairs and drove the car into the garage.
After entering the space, three guys were released. Preserved egg, tiger head, and garlic were sniffing around excitedly as soon as they came out. Tiger head barked at Ju An from time to time.
Ju An ignored these three guys and let them have fun, and walked towards the house to prepare dinner. Preserved egg followed Ju An all the way, Hu Tou and Suan Tou were obviously more interested in the new place, running around to catch something.
No matter what, let's soak in the urine first.
I went into the kitchen, washed a few pots and dishes, took out the fresh bone-in beef from the bag, which weighed about four or five kilograms, and chopped it into about ten pieces, threw it into the pot, and filled it with water.
, Fortunately, Ju An was well prepared for the meal, and took out twenty or thirty bottles and jars of Sichuan peppercorns, dried red peppers, soy sauce, etc. stored in the space.
I casually put some Sichuan peppercorns, poured some soy sauce, and some dried chili peppers, then turned on the gas stove and simmered it. Then I adjusted the seasonings and put some things into the wall cabinet.
After putting the beef stew on the stove, I left the house and took the four-wheel motorcycle off the pickup truck. I couldn't move the oil drums on it, so I had to put it on the car first.
Then he drove the four-wheeled motorcycle and circled around. The three preserved tigers were also attracted by the four-wheeled motorcycle and started running behind the motorcycle. They barked twice from time to time.
Ju An had a great time playing it. It was a bit like the go-karts he had played in China before. Later, he got Hutou and Preserved Egg into the car. The car was too small and there was no place to put Garlic, so he had to let Garlic run with Garlic.
Still making pitiful whining sounds, Tiger Head and Preserved Egg proudly barked at the garlic in the car from time to time. After running with them for a while, they drove the Tiger Head off and replaced it with garlic, and then replaced it again.
Preserved egg, the three guys took turns to sit on the table, no favoritism.
One person and three dogs played together for more than half an hour. They parked their motorcycles at the door of the house and walked into the kitchen to taste it. The beef soup was ready. They put the rice bowls of the three guys in the space at the door and put a few bone-in pieces in each.
beef soup, and then put some buckwheat bread they bought, and the three guys started eating.
Ju An also beat some beef in a small basin and squatted at the door to eat it.
There is one good thing about these guys about Pi Dan. They basically eat cleanly every time and rarely need to clean the dog bowl. They are typical good family dogs. This aspect makes Ju An very satisfied.
After eating, he washed the pots and dishes. Ju An was going to go to the big flower room to take a look. Ju An was not interested in growing flowers at all. He was going to plant some vegetables and so on, and he was going to plant some seeds brought from China.
As soon as I entered the greenhouse, I felt that it was much hotter inside than outside.
After taking off his long sleeves and hanging them on the door handle, Ju An looked inside and saw that the area was quite large. He took out the seeds from the space and filled a bucket of water from the earth enclosure.
He placed a seed one step apart, and about thirty of them were planted. Ju An felt that it was almost done. He scooped some water from the bucket and poured some water on the place where the seeds were buried. After the thirty or so seeds were watered, the seeds
They had already broken through the ground, and seeing the seedlings growing longer and longer, Ju An hurriedly set up the frame. Fortunately, there were many long wooden strips in the greenhouse.
After taking the wooden sticks once, the task of picking up the wooden sticks was given to Preserved Egg, Garlic and Hutou. Each of the three guys held a wooden stick in his mouth and handed it to Ju An who was squatting on the ground. Ju An first took the three wooden sticks.
The sticks were planted in the soil and were close to each other. The seedlings were climbing too fast and there was no time to tie the sticks together. So I had to put the sticks together first and wrap the rope around a few times. I was still sweating nervously.
The last shelf had just been set up, and the seedlings were already above the knees. I tied the ropes one by one and tied up the seedlings. After doing this, the tomatoes had grown almost to Ju An's chest. I wiped the sweat casually and
It’s better not to plant cucumbers, loofahs or other things that need to climb the shelves first.
With this experience, Ju An first set up a scaffolding in the place where he planned to plant cucumbers, loofahs and beans, then planted the seeds in the ground, poured water from the soil fence and left it alone. After a while, the melons were grown.
The vine then began to climb.
Then we planted gourds and winter melons one after another. One person and three dogs worked hard, and after two or three hours, I looked up and saw that there was still a small half of the shed unplanted.
I had a sore back and really had no motivation to plant. So I soaked the cabbage seeds directly in a ladle of water, threw them, and sprinkled them directly on the ground. The seeds actually sprouted.
He found a clean place and sat down. As soon as he sat down, the three tiger heads joined Ju An and lay down together, sticking out their tongues and blowing out air.
I touched the heads of several dogs one by one and watched the vegetables in the flower room growing continuously. I felt very proud. I don’t need to buy these pure green vegetables in the future. I patted the garlic lightly and said, "I will save the money for vegetables in the future."
You guys have a big bone every day, everyone has worked hard today.” It doesn’t matter whether Guan Tou and the others can understand it.
