After returning from Melika's ranch, Zhang Chi's mood alternated between good and bad. The good part was that he was going to make more money, but the bad part was that he couldn't fuck this little girl like Melica.
Thinking of avenging her blood, I would definitely skin her next time, and practiced the martial arts in other people's videos for two days.
I worked hard on the first day and practiced for five or six hours, almost to the point of exhaustion.
I rested for a day on the second day, and resumed training on the third day when I felt better.
On the fourth day, Zhang Chi felt that he still wanted to convince others with his virtue. Besides, such a training method was really tiring.
So starting from the fifth day, Zhang Chi lay flat again.
On the sixth day, Melika came over with two fish and asked Zhang Chi to cook the fish. By the way, Zhang Chi practiced again, so Zhang Chi became ruthless again.
Next, I practiced like crazy for three days, and then... I started to convince people with my virtue again.
After a few days of going back and forth to persuade people with virtue, Brian finished his work and brought his belongings to the ranch to report.
"BOSS, I'm coming."
Brian happily stopped his broken pickup truck at the door, entered the room and shouted to Zhang Chi.
"Keep your voice down, there aren't that many people here," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Brian smiled naively and tightened his grip on the baseball cap in his hand.
"sit!"
He pointed to the chair next to him and motioned for Brian to sit down.
Brian sat down, and Zhang Chi assigned Brian a task: "When you get there, you don't have to worry too much about other things. Just watch them and record how much grass they cut and how much they got each time."
Just bale hay, don't let them take advantage of our pasture...".
Brian nodded: "BOSS, I understand."
"In addition, they may not be so friendly. Try not to conflict with them on your own. You will be the one who suffers when the time comes. Just give in to others and remember not to let them deceive you."
"Don't worry, even if they take an extra straw... grass stem, I will remember it," Brian said.
"That's enough. The task isn't too heavy. If you want to do the work, just do it. If you don't want to do it, just ignore them. We mainly focus on collecting money here," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Brian asked: "BOSS, have I always been there?"
Zhang Chi thought for a moment: "No need. When you have nothing to do, you can go home for two days to see your wife and children. There are always harvest cycles, and staying there in the middle is just a waste of time."
Brian was a little embarrassed: "BOSS, I'm not married yet, I don't have a wife or children."
Zhang Chi didn't find it strange. Generally speaking, it's not easy for a cowboy like this to find a wife. This is actually the same as in China. It's always a little difficult for a poor boy to find a wife.
"You can give yourself two days off even if you don't have a wife or children," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Brian didn't answer, but looked at Zhang Chi with a naive smile.
When people arrived and things were discussed, Zhang Chi had to resort to tactics.
What method? Of course, giving money, what can be better than giving money to win people's hearts?
Is it possible that you asked Zhang Chi to get everyone a medal? Guan Jian just did it. Unless this thing is made in gold, let alone Brian, the Cannon family will not recognize it.
When the people's hearts are broken, it will be difficult to lead the team. Zhang Chi's principle for leading the team is one: give money!
"This is your salary for this month, as well as your settlement allowance. It's a total of 1,700 yuan. Save some money. The next payment will be on the first or second day of next month." Zhang Chi took out one from his pocket.
The little green paper was handed into Brian's hand.
Brian was a little strange, because now he is paid last when he does work, but when he met the boss for the first time, he was paid first.
"We are all like this. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me." Zhang Chi smiled and looked amiable.
"Okay, BOSS, I'm out," Brian said after taking the money.
"Go ahead" Zhang Chi waved his hand.
After leaving the house, Brian drove his car to the RV, stopped the car, and walked toward the cowshed.
When we got to the cowshed, we helped Cannon work together.
"BOSS gave me one month's salary, as well as settlement allowance, several hundred dollars in settlement allowance," Brian said.
Cannon listened and laughed and said: "There will be more money like this in the future. BOSS is not a stingy person. Every time the ranch has income, he will give me a share. You will definitely have it when the time comes. You can work here with peace of mind."
It’s done, and working is much more comfortable than other places.”
Brian nodded. Like Cannon, he was a part-time worker. Although he was American, he could not read a few characters, which was almost equivalent to illiterate.
You may not know that the illiteracy rate in the United States is 14%, which means that seven out of every fifty Americans are illiterate.
So Brian can't do anything else except doing odd jobs. It's not that he doesn't want to be a resident cowboy, but that people look down on him. Almost all resident cowboys are people who have worked on the same ranch for several generations. How can he?
This way.
Cannon rolled up his sleeves at this time and branded a Zhangchi Ranch coat of arms on his left shoulder.
Brian looked at the coat of arms with envy on his face: "BOSS allows you to do this?"
Cannon didn't answer. He just said: "I want to work on the ranch until I can no longer shovel cow manure and then retire."
Brian was envious because it was the symbol of the resident cowboy. In other words, Cannon was considered the resident cowboy of the ranch, and his life and the ranch were closely linked.
At the moment, Brian doesn't have the nerve to brand his arm with the ranch's mark.
Nowadays, many people will say that branding one's body is something only cows and horses do, but for cowboys, this kind of mark is loyalty and honor.
Zhang Chi didn't know that Cannon had done this. If he knew, he would definitely say why bother, there is no need to engage in such formalism. Of course, he would be happy when he turned around.
For ranchers, this is the cowboy's recognition of himself.
"Work hard. Our BOSS will definitely not be satisfied with the current ranch. He will definitely expand it in the future. Otherwise, he won't let you go to the ranch over there. Only by making money can the ranch be expanded. If it weren't for me,
Well, BOSS may rent another pasture today." Cannon said with emotion.
"Yeah, I believe it." Brian nodded.
The cowboys under him have hope and confidence. If Zhang Chi knew about it, he would definitely feel that we are under great pressure!
The two of them murmured while working. With Brian's help, today's work went very quickly. After the work was done, Cannon and Brian started to weave leather strips again. These leather cloths were prepared for cattle.
, the cows in the pasture are about to give birth today, and they have to hang bells around their necks to make them easier to find. Of course, a more modern method is to hang a locator on the cows' necks.
However, Cannon feels that there must be old methods and new equipment. If the electronic products don't work, there are still old methods.
Zhang Chi is even lazier now. He rolls ink when he has nothing to do, and rides a horse for two laps when he has something to do.
Brian stayed at the ranch for a week and then left for Colorado. A few days later, they said that the first hundred acres of pasture had been leveled and Zhang Chi was allowed to go there.
The night before Zhang Chi set out, he brought a few grasses into the gourd, planted the grass and watered the gourd. In an instant, the grasses spread out into a large area, and then the grass seeds were covered with branches like rice.
.
Holding the cloth bag, Zhang Chi was ready to harvest, but with a thought, the seeds fell into the cloth bag, which saved Zhang Chi a lot of time.
Early the next morning, Zhang Chi drove his pickup truck to Colorado. In the back was a hundred acres of grass seeds, weighing almost two tons. If it weren't for the gourds, Zhang Chi would have passed an agricultural inspection station.
It will take some time.
The car drove into the pasture.
Apart from Brian, Langdon was the only one who came to pick up Zhang Chi, but Eric, who was actually in charge of the entire ranch, was not there.
Zhang Chi didn't care about this and just asked Langdon to take the seeds out of the pickup truck and prepare to plant them.
Langdon also made full preparations. Although he didn't like Zhang Chi, they had to do what Melika was determined to do.
It's not like Eric didn't have some calculations here. He would open a hundred acres first. If the seeds brought by Zhang Chi, a liar, didn't work, then even if there was damage, it would still be within a controllable range. More than four thousand acres.
Anyone with a brain can tell which one is bigger or smaller than One Hundred Acres.
Everyone didn’t waste any time and started planting as soon as the seeds arrived.
A farm like this cannot be artificial and fully mechanized, and the machinery here is much richer than that at Zhangchi Ranch. Let’s put it this way, the total number of machines here is enough to buy two or three Zhangchi-sized farms.
Ranch.
It has to be said that agricultural machinery here in the United States is really expensive, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is really a bit overwhelming for small ranchers.
Zhang Chi sat on his horse and watched the cowboys drive the seeder to sow the seeds.
Next to him is Brian, who is also riding a horse.
With only two people left, Zhang Chi asked: "How are you doing here?"
Brian smiled bitterly and said: "No one here is willing to talk to me."
Zhang Chi smiled after hearing this, reached out and patted Brian gently: "When our grass grows, they will talk to you."
"I don't care." Brian didn't care at all what the cowboys here thought. He came here with one thought in mind: watch the ranch's money and don't let these people take advantage of it.
Once a field has been sown, the next step is to sprinkle it with water.
At this time, Zhang Chi rode his horse to the large water storage tank, dismounted and climbed up the escalator.
Langdon, who was directing at the side, saw him and walked over.
"George, what are you doing?"
Zhang Chi thought to himself: What are you doing? If you don’t add a little gourd pulp, do you think you can germinate the seeds of the giant beetle with just this water?
I think so in my heart, but I can't say it out loud.
"Let me see how the water quality is?"
As he spoke, Zhang Chi put his hand into the jar and stirred it, then directed the gourd to pour a little gourd pulp into it.
The gourd pulp instantly dispersed when it met the water. If you look closely, you will feel that the water in this jar seems to be different, it is slightly shimmering.
After climbing down from the water tank, Zhang Chi said: "The water quality is not bad."
Langdon didn't say anything. He just felt that Zhang Chi, an Asian, was putting on airs.
"Simon, start sprinkling water."
"Don't have too many seeds," Zhang Chi said quickly, "If you sprinkle too many seeds, they will rot."
Langdon heard this and said, "Just do as George says."
Simon asked in confusion: "What is too much?"
"Let me see if you spill it," Zhang Chi said.
As soon as the water sprayed, Zhang Chi said: "A little less, 80% of the amount will be enough."
Simon made a slight adjustment, and Zhang Chi gave it a thumbs up.
The whole process went very smoothly. We are all old cowboys. I don’t need Zhang Chi to teach me how to grow grass.
Adding an update chapter, I still have a chance for the alliance leader. Congratulations, I saw a big reward for the alliance leader a day or two ago, but Shitou is slow in coding. I have always wanted to add an update, but I just didn’t find the time. Today I finally got it.
It's time. Sorry, it's a bit late.
Big congratulations to the first leader of this book, thank you very much!
