When Ju An came out of the space, it was already almost four o'clock in the afternoon. He also carried Wukong and Teddy out, walked to the bed, picked up the hat and mobile phone on the bed, and was about to install the mobile phone.
In my pocket, I saw two missed calls, one from Jasmine, and the other from Lu Guangyuan, the old man who runs a farm in Great Falls.
First, he called Jasmine back. After the phone was connected, Ju An asked, "I was busy with my work just now and didn't see the phone. What's the matter, Jasmine?"
Jasmine on the other end of the phone smiled and replied: "Nothing, I just wanted to say hello to you and see what you are doing and whether you are finished working on the ranch. I saw you twice, but you were too busy to accompany me. When I came to your place
I feel bored alone."
Are you saying it's boring? I don't know how much fun you had with Teddy and Wusong in the ranch, but Ju An said this without sleeping. All fools know what to say to their girlfriends: "I don't have anything on my hands."
It's over. I've ignored you about the ranch these days. If you have time, come over tomorrow. Wu Song and Teddy can
I miss you, I haven't eaten much in the past two days since you left," Ju An said against his will, glancing at the plump teddy at his feet, who was lying around behind Wu Song, playing with Wu Song's tail, while Wu Song blinked.
He looked at Ju An with his small eyes, grinning from time to time, and he didn't seem to miss Jasmine at all.
"Then I'll go there tomorrow morning. I miss the two little ones too. Don't forget to prepare scrambled eggs with red silk for me at noon. I haven't eaten them in a few days," Jasmine said cheerfully.
Ever since she went to China, Jasmine has fallen in love with this dish. It is simple to make. Chinese people think it is simple, but foreigners think it is very complicated. In short, Ju An feels that foreigners are easy to fool, and the two of them stick together for a while.
Then they each hung up the phone.
Following Ju An, he called Lu Guangyuan: "Hello! Brother Lu, this is Xiao Ju."
Lu Guangyuan's honest voice came from the other end of the phone: "Are you busy during this period? If you are not busy, come to our place. All the pumpkins at home have been collected. Halloween will be here in about ten days, so don't you, either?
"What kind of pumpkins have you bought? Go take some back to your house. The farm is holding a tour during this time, so you can come and play too."
Ju An said in surprise: "I have just finished working on the ranch. During this period, more than 20,000 cows will come to the ranch one after another. I have just had some free time. Unknowingly, it's Halloween so soon. This is my
This is the first Halloween, I have to plan carefully, but forget it if I go to your place, the ranch will take in cattle during this period, so I have to be at home to see what happens."
"Good guy! This is a big deal now. I thought so. I went to your place to look around. It's such a waste. The cows are so good. I think we almost have the manpower. This requires a lot of people. I also listen.
As I said, you bought more than 20,000 cows at once," Lu Guangyuan said with a smile.
"This old beauty is also quite quick-talking. In just a few days, she has already sent the message to you. Forget about looking for people. I originally planned to find all of them, but in the end, she found a few.
They are all in their thirties and basically have families. The younger ones don’t, so I’m going to hire Chileans for the rest,” Ju An complained.
After hearing the complaint, Lu Guangyuan said: "These Americans are lazy. Like us Chinese, we have done all kinds of dirty work when we came to the United States. Now they are better at gatherings and protests. Some time ago, they protested against the robbery of new immigrants."
If they don’t have their jobs, they will be very talkative. Even compared with the older generation of Americans, today’s young people are much worse.”
Ju An agreed and said: "Yes, a bunch of Chileans earn 900 US dollars a month, including food and accommodation, and they don't have Sunday work. They only have one month off a year, and hiring an old American will cost at least 1,200 US dollars a month."
U.S. dollars, food and accommodation are also included, as well as holidays, and you also have to pay these and other things. I spend at least two thousand a month, and I still can’t find anyone.”
Lu Guangyuan smiled and said: "If you want, how about hiring two of your own people?".
Ju An said: "We Chinese can also herd animals? I really didn't expect this. I thought they were all restaurant owners, or they were engaged in scientific research or business. But let me tell you, I am a smuggler.
I don’t dare to hire them. If something goes wrong, if someone with a green card is willing to come, what do you think?”
"There are a few young guys in their twenties who came here with work visas. They lost their jobs. They came to my place two days ago to find a job. They used to herd cattle and horses on a California ranch. It cost the family a lot of money.
We brought them to the United States to make money for a small amount of money. If they can't find a job, they will be sent back. You know that my whole family here is very busy, but I can't help you much, so I thought of you.
Lu Guangyuan said with a smile.
"That's no problem. After all, we are all our own people, but I will be the first to say ugly things about being lazy and slippery. When the time comes, Thomas will leave just because he doesn't like it. I have delegated all my rights to Thomas to hire and fire whomever." Ju An
said.
Lu Guangyuan smiled and said loudly: "No problem, if you are lazy, I can't introduce it to you. The three hard-working young men are all from the mainland. The family spent a lot of money to get a job abroad, which is said to make a lot of money.
I just finished paying off the money to the agency that went abroad and I lost my job. How about I take the young man over to have a look in two days?"
Ju An thought for a moment and said, "Let's go early, just in time to get familiar with it."
Lu Guangyuan said with a smile: "Then I will take three young men there tomorrow and bring you some big pumpkins."
"Okay! That's it, Brother Lu, I'm hanging up." Ju An heard the person on the other end say okay, that's it, and hung up the phone.
If the above conversation had been heard by Wang Fan, Wu Ming, and Liu Chao, they would have burst out laughing. The biggest lazy guy on the ranch? It’s obviously Ju An himself. Apart from sleeping, he just wanders around and starts a company together.
, I only went there once, and people who can’t even figure out what kind of software the company produces have the nerve to call others lazy. But who made Ju An lucky enough to get a bead, so lazy people are also blessed with laziness.
After leaving the door, he called Doucao over with a whistle. When Xuehua followed, Ju An did not bring Xuehua as usual. They had a foal. Some time ago, Ju An specifically told Nancy to ask for more.
Pay attention to the pregnant woman Xia Hua. He saddled Bean Cao and went to find old Thomas. He ran to Wynn and Andrew's herd and asked about it. Only then did he find out that old Thomas was busy at the new house to the east. So he had to go again.
Turn the horse's head and run towards the east.
I let go of the bean grass and ran for a while. I said hello to two people driving a big tractor who were harvesting grass on the road. I looked at the pieces of grass that were cut and the big piles of grass that were rolled up. Although it was a pasture,
There was no usual tranquility, but there was more vitality. After riding his horse to the new place, Ju An saw a lively scene. A group of ten people were spreading square logs and a piece of grass under the house.
has been shoveled away,
The yellow soil was exposed, and twenty or thirty large pits were dug in the soil. A large square was filled with cement in each pit. A square log was fixed on each square, forming a dozen or so holes on the ground.
The wooden grid, so that the bottom frame of the entire building has been completed, and now they are connecting the square timbers with horizontal bars to fix the ground. Most of the square grids have already fixed the horizontal bars, and it is estimated that the remaining ones will be finished tonight.
It can be completed.
Seeing Ju An coming on horseback, he was drawing lines on the square logs. Thomas and Lawrence, who were instructing everyone to install horizontal stripes, smiled and greeted Ju An loudly. Ju An also followed the greetings of everyone who remembered their names and did not remember their names.
After greeting everyone, he walked to Thomas and praised Thomas: "Everyone is moving very quickly. This is basically half of the house completed."
Thomas shook his head: "It's only half of the time. Tomorrow we can ask the housing company to deliver the walls, roof and windows of the house. After they are installed, everyone will connect the pipes, lay the floor and then contact us again."
It would be great if the water company and the electric power company connect water, electricity and heating.”
Ju An nodded. Building this kind of house here in the United States is like building blocks, modular splicing. Don’t look at this house as if it is very simple. The sound insulation and heat preservation effect is better than some brick-concrete walls, and you
If you want to move it, just grab a few components, then find a large flatbed trailer, a few jacks and a few jacks, and you can drag it around. So if you are lucky on the old American West Road, you can see an entire small trailer.
The scene of the house being towed by a car.
"When will it be completed? The first batch of cattle from the ranch will be delivered soon. In addition, I have also found three people here. Come over tomorrow and you can make arrangements then," Ju An said.
Thomas nodded lightly, and then said: "The basic body is all healed. I can basically live in three days, but if I can live in it, it will take ten days to connect the pipes, lay the floor, install the toilet pool, etc.
"It will take almost this long to wait for the paint to dry. Let's live in the house over there when we get there. There are still a few houses vacant."
"Anyway, just look at the arrangement." Ju An also helped everyone lift the wood. When the wide wood strips were connected to the large square wood, Ju An discovered that the wooden strips were connected with short pieces of wood in the middle, forming roughly
Looking at the connections between the fifteen centimeters wide and thirty centimeters long squares, Ju An sighed.
He said, no wonder this house can be transported. The bottom of this thing is really strong. All the wood has been treated when it was bought. It is said that it will not rot after being used for decades, and it needs to be layered with thick wood on top.
After partitioning the rooms, we also need to lay down the floors, which is much better than living by ourselves before.
It was busy until six o'clock, when everyone stopped working and went back. Ju An went back to cook, and a group of cowboys had to gather the cattle together and get close to the house to prepare for the night.
