Chapter 163 Hunter Charles

Chapter 163 Hunter Charles

Zhang Chi really didn't expect that the conditions for grazing land would be so simple. He thought that there must be a wooden house or something like that. Americans especially like this kind of thing. They would build one if they found a nook and corner place for vacation or vacation.

What.

According to Zhang Chi's idea, he would build a wooden house by the small lake in the forest when he had time. After all, he had to build a serious house in the pasture. No matter how small it was, it still had to be a house.

Who knew that when I looked here, I saw several prefabricated houses.

Yes, the weather here is a little warmer than Amber's, but it's not that warm. Melika's pasture has gone up to freezing, and there's still snow here. How can we live like this?

Aren't they suffering from cold and hunger? I don't know how these people survived this winter.

Several pickup trucks arrived at the door and stopped. Zhang Chi got out of the car and suddenly felt a cold wind blowing against his face.

"welcome!"

At this time, an old man came out of the house. He was wrapped in a very thick leather jacket. He didn't look like a cowboy, but looked a bit like an Eskimo. He was dressed in animal skins.

"This is Nell's father, Charles."

Miller next to him reminded Zhang Chi in a low voice.

This was the first time Zhang Chi met Nell's father. He originally thought that Nell's family had no elders, but unexpectedly a biological father appeared suddenly, which made Zhang Chi a little suspicious.

Moreover, my name is Charles and my son is Nelson. This family seems to have fallen into the trap of the Anglo-Saxons.

But after taking a closer look, I found that the old man's appearance was very similar to Nell's.

The old man is really in good spirits, with a rosy complexion and a strong voice. Whether he walks or thinks, he does not look like an old man in his 60s or 70s. He looks like he is in his fifties.

Nell introduced the people who came. Of course, they were all acquaintances. He mainly introduced Zhang Chi, a new face.

"I heard that you raise cattle very well and you are an excellent rancher." Charles reached out his hand to shake Zhang Chi's hearty hand, and then introduced himself: "My name is Charles, and I am also a rancher, but I am retired now.

, he appears to be a rabbit hunter."

Rabbit hunter? Zhang Chi was a little confused.

Charles didn't pay attention and quickly greeted everyone into the house.

After entering the house, Zhang Chi looked around and felt that it was quite peaceful. After seeing the outside and then looking inside, he became more receptive.

There is a stove in the house, which burns firewood. The stove is not only used for heating but also for cooking, so there are still pots and some shelves next to the stove.

In the corner of the room, Zhang Chi discovered something new. There was a shelf, a wooden shelf with a rope wrapped around it. Standing on the top horizontal pole was a sturdy eagle with gray feathers and a yellow beak.

The mouth looks extremely strong.

The eagle was also looking at the people in the room at this moment. It seemed a little uneasy and walked around on the horizontal pole with its wings half spread.

"Jimmy!"

Charles said something to the eagle, but unfortunately the eagle still walked around.

As soon as Zhang Chi heard Charles calling Jimmy, he immediately added the latter sentence in his mind.

‘Jimmy, come on, Jimmy, come on, come on’.

I have forgotten what song it is. I only remember that I had this tape at home when I was a kid. My father sometimes listened to this song, and it was quite contagious. After listening to a few lines, the song "Come Jimmy" in it was as if it was engraved on Zhang Chi.

in my mind.

"This is my Eagle Jimmy" the old man said with a smile.

Nell said to Charles at this time: "What are you going to do for dinner tonight?"

Charles said: "Let's divide it into several places as before. The main course tonight is roast beef with mashed potatoes and vegetable salad...".

Zhang Chi was not interested in any of the names of the dishes that Charles mentioned. He was just looking at the eagle in the corner of the room and thought it was too exciting.

Leading the yellow to the left, holding the blue to the right, and thousands of horses rolling around the hillocks, what a momentum this is. Now that I have dogs and horses, don’t I need an eagle?

As he was staring at the eagle in a daze, he suddenly felt someone nudge him. He turned around and found Miller winking at him.

Zhang Chi didn't know what he meant.

"Let's go"

So Zhang Chi followed Miller out the door, went to the house at the end, opened the door and walked in.

"do what?"

"Get ready to cook," Miller said.

Zhang Chi asked curiously: "Do it yourself?"

Miller smiled and said: "Otherwise, now that the cowboys here have left, of course we have to do it ourselves. I will go get some firewood and light the fire first. We will stay in this room tonight."

Zhang Chi was quite surprised, why did he still have to cook for himself? But thinking about the small pot in Charles' room, it was obviously not enough for people like him.

Even using a big pot won't work, because the stove is only that big. If you put a big pot on it, it can turn over if you move it even slightly.

Zhang Chi couldn't just sit still, so he got up and went to the firewood pile outside with Miller to bring back a pile of firewood.

I turned on the stove, and slowly the room got a little warm.

Miller brought back a basin. There were two pieces of beef in the basin, as well as some vegetables, potatoes, tomatoes, and a kind of green leafy vegetable. Zhang Chi didn't know its name. He only knew that he didn't like the taste of this dish.

.

With the fire and some beef, the next thing is simple. Rub some salt and seasoning on the beef, set it aside to marinate for a while, and Miller starts cutting the vegetables.

Seeing Miller's appearance, Zhang Chi couldn't stand it, so he took the knife and started to cut it, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang, clang clang, three times five times, five times two times, Zhang Chi cut the vegetables.

Miller had eaten the dishes cooked by Zhang Chi, so it was no surprise that Zhang Chi's knife skills were obvious. When Zhang Chi was fine, Miller unscrewed the bottle of salad dressing, poured some sauce into the vegetables, and mixed it.

Place it not far from the stove so that the hot food will not be so cold when you eat it.

After a while, I started to fry the beef. There is nothing to say about this thing. It doesn’t require any skills to flip it over and fry it. You can eat it when both sides are slightly brown.

"Charles is a hunter? Hunts with a hawk?"

Zhang Chi asked Miller while eating.

Miller replied: "Well, he specializes in helping people catch rabbits. In addition to the eagle, Charles also has two mink. When hunting, he puts the mink into the rabbit hole. If the lucky rabbit escapes, the eagle will send

It’s coming in handy. You don’t need it in your pasture. Your two dogs are good at catching rabbits. By the way, when will you give birth to a dog?”

"How do I know this, but judging from the time, it should be soon. By the way, how is Charles's business?" Zhang Chi found this interesting.

Miller laughed and said: "You can't support yourself by doing this. This kind of work is just a play for Charles. Even if he doesn't have to do anything, he can live a comfortable life without doing any work at all."

You may not know that he used to develop oil fields on his farm, and now those few oil wells can bring him a net income of more than 200,000 yuan a month.

At this time of year, he was busy helping Nell around. At other times, he spent most of his time either basking in the sun on the beach in Miami and picking up girls, or enjoying the sun and delicious food on the Caribbean islands.

It’s quite moisturizing.”

"That's it." Zhang Chi felt a little envious upon hearing this.

Drilling an oil well on your own land is almost a legend, a legend about getting rich overnight. In many states, if you buy land, everything underground is yours, even if the oil is produced.

Of course, some states are different, and every state is different.

Anyway, here, as long as an oil well is drilled on your land, what will come out will not be oil but US dollars. You don't need to do anything, just wait to collect the money.

As for why Charles lived such a free and easy life, but Nell, as his son, struggled to raise cattle, I don’t know.

Sometimes Americans divide money very clearly. What's mine is mine, and what's yours is yours. Even though you are a son, you can't say that my money is yours. If the old man doesn't give it to you, it still belongs to the old man.

Hearing Zhang Chi mention this, Miller laughed and said: "Charles's life is enviable. Last year, I heard that he found a girlfriend. She is in her twenties or 22. She is a model. I don't know this year.

Has it been replaced?"

"This is so clear," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

With a net income of two hundred thousand dollars a month, is it too much to have a model girlfriend in her twenties?

It’s not exaggerated at all. Besides, Charles is so old and still has a few years to live. If he doesn’t seize the time to enjoy the fun of life, is it possible that the money has not been spent yet?

However, Zhang Chi is not very interested in the old man's love history and the old pear blossom crushing the 20-year-old little begonia. What he is interested in now is the eagle in the old man's house.

"Is it troublesome to raise an eagle?" Zhang Chi asked.

Now Zhang Chi is just curious, since he didn't ask anyway, he'll just ask.

"As long as you have a license, you can buy eagles that are bred by others through legal procedures. Of course, no one will care if you raise them on your own ranch. As long as they don't leave your ranch, there will be no problem. What, you want to raise eagles?

?I advise you not to raise it, it’s quite troublesome,” Miller said.

"I just asked casually and thought it was quite interesting," Zhang Chi said.

Miller laughed after hearing this and said: "There are many interesting things. Except for a few animals that cannot be raised privately in our state, it seems that all others can be raised."

"What can't be raised?" Zhang Chi asked.

"I forgot about the other things, but you can look it up online. I remember it's impossible to raise a Komodo dragon."

After hearing this, Zhang Chi couldn't help but say: I'm here!

That thing about keeping Komodo dragons privately? Aren't you out of your mind? This guy is a reptile, and its mouth is full of bacteria. If it takes a bite, the whole village will probably have a feast the next day.

"Tiger and lion are also okay?" Zhang Chi shook the terrifying image of the Komodo dragon out of his mind.

Miller smiled and asked: "Do you know where the most tigers are in the world?"

"Russia?" Zhang Chi felt that Lao Maozi would probably be right with this option.

Miller shook his head and said, "No, it's Texas. Statistics say there are thousands of tigers in Texas being trained as pets by private individuals."

"Where did this thing come from?" Zhang Chi was a little doubtful.

Miller said: "This is the United States. If you have money, you can buy anything, including tigers, lions, elephants, and even all kinds of venomous snakes. You only have to worry about your own pocket."
