At this time, Sun Mao explained to Zhang Chi: "Brother Zhang Chi, our brother Yan Zhou has several high-end restaurants in the country. If your beef can be exclusively for him, it will definitely be a benefit for both parties."
Sun Mao had a little misunderstanding of Zhang Chi's words.
Zhang Chi replied: "I really want to, but the conditions are really too harsh, and I only have a few hundred head a year, slaughtering, cutting and packaging. For such a small amount, the cost will increase greatly.
Even if it’s shipped to China, the cost is prohibitively high.”
This is true. Once the volume of business increases, the cost will also come down. Zhang Chi's volume in one year, let alone those who have taken over the large export companies in China, is even a medium-sized one.
The fattening pasture can also throw him away thousands of miles away.
With an output of several hundred head a year, even if it were placed in China, it would not be considered a high-end cattle breeder. At most, it could be regarded as a private farmer, and it would be known as a large cattle farmer in the village or town.
"The output is a bit small and the cost of supply is too high."
Yan Zhou is interested in Zhang Chi's beef, mainly because the beef tastes really good, even better than the beef currently used in his restaurant.
But even if he wants to use it, he has to consider Zhang Chi's output. The cost is really too high and he doesn't know how to use it. Businessmen are all about making money after all.
There are people rushing to do the beheading business, but there will definitely be no one doing the unprofitable business.
After watching the cow for a while, Zhang Chi took Yan Zhou and the other four back to the house.
Anyway, there is a bed in the guest bedroom. How the four of them sleep is not Zhang Chi's concern. He can provide the four of them with a place to avoid the snow and provide a steaming meal. This is already considered as a compatriot.
Zhiyi, if you think too much, it's impossible.
And Yan Zhou and others didn't think too much. Now that they don't have to live in a car, it is already an extremely happy thing for them.
Zhang Chi didn't care how they distributed it. He went back to his room, washed himself, fed him some ink, and then went to bed.
He slept until dawn. When he got up, he found that the room where Yan Zhou and others lived was still snoring loudly, so Zhang Chitang did not wake them up. After washing himself, he left the house and went to the cowshed to help.
When they arrived at the cowshed, Cannon was cleaning cow dung. When he saw Zhang Chi coming, he said hello first.
"BOSS, are there guests?"
Cannon asked.
When Zhang Chi told the story, Cannon said again: "That's such a coincidence."
"Who says it's not the case, but there have been more opportunities to meet Chinese people in recent years," Zhang Chi said.
Cannon said: "That's right. Rich Chinese people are traveling all over the United States, so the chances of encountering them are higher than before."
Nowadays, Americans generally believe that Chinese people are rich. If a bad guy sees an Asian on the street, he will hold out his hand and ask you for fifty dollars. If you don't give it, he may get into trouble.
This is not a good thing. Especially many Chinese people like to carry cash. Now some people don’t carry cash, but they still carry dozens of dollars with them specifically for people to ‘borrow’.
Spending money to avoid disaster is really not easy to evaluate at the moment.
Zhang Chi smiled and the two chatted for a few words before going to work.
At around eight o'clock, Zhang Chi returned to the house to prepare breakfast. It happened that Yan Zhou and others also woke up at this time.
"Can we have noodles in the morning?" Zhang Chi asked.
Yan Zhou said: "That's great, we can do whatever we want."
So Zhang Chi cooked noodles, and after everyone ate them, they drove to the ditch where their car was stuck.
Now that the snow has stopped, although the car is still stuck in it, it is much better than yesterday when it was in the dark. Zhang Chi looked aside for a while, and then a passing cowboy stopped.
"George, what's wrong?"
The cowboy stopped the car and walked next to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi said: "My friend's car is stuck here, and everyone is thinking about how to drag it out."
The cowboy thought for a moment and said, "Can't your car be towed out?"
Zhang Chi replied: "I tried it, but it doesn't work."
"Then add our car and tow the two cars together." The cowboy enthusiastically put forward his opinion.
There was no better way to do it now, so Zhang Chi and Cowboy began to use two vehicles to drag the car out of the ditch.
Before the two of them could do anything, a big guy came on the road. A rancher drove his F650 ranch version of a large pickup truck. The displacement of this car directly beat Zhang Chi's pickup truck.
After hearing about this situation, they put down the cable and hung it on the car in the ditch. After a few twists and turns, they pulled the car up.
Then the second car was also pulled up.
Not only did they pull the car up, but they also helped to check the car's faults. One car had a minor problem and could be repaired, but one car was not working. There was a problem with something major, which is not the case for ordinary people.
It can be repaired.
But now there are two cars out of three, so at least there is no problem driving to Folsom.
So Yan Zhou and others said goodbye to Zhang Chi, and once again asked Zhang Chi to go and play with them if he returned to China in the future. After being polite for a long time, they drove their own cars and towed a broken down car.
Car went to Folsom for repair.
Just like that, the intersection between Zhang Chi, Yan Zhou and others came to an end.
Next, Zhang Chi is going to go back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year. He must bring beef at home, and mutton is also indispensable. As for pork, forget about it. Firstly, there are few pigs, and secondly, there is no shortage of pork at home. As for chickens, ducks and other things
Also escaped.
Zhang Chi pretended to send the stuff full of stuff to the city, but in fact, it was already in the gourd halfway.
The uncle and aunt knew that Zhang Chi was going back, and they wanted to give something as a gift, but it was too troublesome to go through the customs. Send money. Zhang Chi would definitely not want it, let alone expensive things, so the uncle and aunt had to let Zhang Chi give him something.
Chi spread the word that the whole family must come here next year and so on.
I made some arrangements for my absence. Actually, there is nothing much to say. Cannon, who is a rancher, is much more professional than Zhangchi.
After everything was settled, Zhang Chi took his luggage and was sent to the airport by Cannon.
There is nothing for the two men to be fussy about, and there is no crying or waiting to leave that would make one's hair stand on end.
"I am leaving".
“Have safe journeys!”
After speaking, Cannon did not watch Zhang Chi leave. He actually turned around first and ran towards the exit with Xiao Gao. It felt like his boss was a plague and he couldn't hide in a hurry.
Zhang Chi stood there and watched Cannon's back disappear from the door. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
I know Cannon is anxious about the ranch, but now it’s time to give it away!
You old boy, can you be more professional? Even if you are not sad, can you wait until I enter the terminal before going back?
After muttering something at Cannon's long-disappeared back, Zhang Chi held the boarding pass in one hand and walked toward the departure hall, holding his luggage with the other.
Shi Tuzhangchi was lucky this time. Instead of sitting beside him, there was a young girl sitting next to him. As soon as he got on the plane, the girl closed her eyes, put on her headphones, and looked like she would keep away from strangers.
Zhang Chi naturally couldn't be thick-skinned to talk to other girls. Although he was very thick-skinned, he was not in the mood at the moment. From the moment he boarded the plane, the excitement of going home began to ferment.
The plane landed in Los Angeles smoothly.
After getting off the plane and exiting the airport, I saw Brother Zhang Wen and his naughty little sports car waiting at the door.
"elder brother!"
Zhang Chi waved his hand several times at Zhang Wen.
Zhang Wen smiled and stepped forward to help Zhang Chi put his luggage into the car.
"Your sister-in-law is at home, Xiao Wu will come over later," Zhang Wen said.
"Brother Xiao Wu is free?" Zhang Chi joked.
Zhang Wen said: "He, who knows which days he is busy and which days he is not?"
After saying Zhang Wen, he got into the car, started the car and took Zhang Chi home.
Zheng Huai was preparing dinner at home. When he heard the noise, he came out immediately. He looked at Zhang Chi who came in and said with a smile: "Here we are, how was the journey?"
Zhang Chi said with a smile: "I'm lucky today, there aren't any strange-flavored beans next to me, otherwise I would have to use Fengyoujing again."
"Strange-flavored beans?"
Zheng Huai thought for a moment and understood, and laughed loudly: "The adjective you used is quite vivid, Zhang Wen, when it's time to eat, please urge Zhang Wu."
Zhang Wen nodded and took out his cell phone.
After saying a few words, he put down his phone and said: "It's almost there, we'll be there in ten minutes."
"Is his ten minutes accurate?" Zhang Chi said cheerfully.
"I don't care if he's right or not, we'll have dinner when we get there. Oh, come with me. I've prepared some things for my uncle and the others. As I told you last time, you just want to bring them back this time." Zhang Wen said to Zhang Chizhao
beckoned.
Zhang Chi followed his cousin into the house.
When Zhang Chi entered the room, Zhang Wen pointed at the three cardboard boxes placed in the corner, large and small.
"what?"
Zhang Chi squatted down and tried it, and found that the box still had some weight.
"Some therapeutic instruments," Zhang Wen said.
Zhang Chi said: "You buy this thing here? Maybe it is made in China."
When it comes to this kind of messy treatment equipment, which one is better in our country if it is not strong?
Zhang Wen said: "No, my colleague said that this thing is very easy to use and extremely comfortable after use. It is not made in China and cannot be purchased in China."
Zhang Chi listened casually, but when his eyes fell on the production site, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Because it does not say MADE IN CHINA, it says MADE IN PRC.
When I saw PRC Zhang Chi, I suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. After thinking about it carefully, I finally remembered that PRC and CHINA are the same. The two words have the same meaning, just like mother and mother, one thing and two things.
a name.
Poof!
After figuring it out, Zhang Chi couldn't help but feel happy.
When Zhang Wen saw his cousin's appearance, he couldn't help but ask: "What are you laughing at? Why, the stuff is not good?"
"Okay, okay, but come and see for yourself where this place of origin is."
Zhang Chi pulled Zhang Wen over to take a look.
"Produced by PRC, it's... I'm going to go for it! Isn't this just changing the soup without changing the medicine?" Zhang Wen was happy to see it.
"I also asked which country this is made in, but I didn't expect that people would be tricked by people who kept going around." Zhang Wen laughed happily.
After he finished laughing, he said, "Well, let's do this. I'll buy a few bottles of wine for you to take with you when I take you to the duty-free shop tomorrow."
"Stop drinking, just this, I bought everything anyway," Zhang Chi said.
"Okay then," Zhang Wen said, "I really didn't expect that even after buying and selling, this thing is still made in China."
He didn't read the article. He just heard from his colleagues that this thing was pretty good and that it was made in Europe, so he bought it and planned to take it back to his uncle and aunt so that the two old people could take care of it. Who knew he accidentally got injured again?
