After accompanying Old Xu to catch rabbits for almost two days and getting more than 20 rabbits, Zhang Chi felt that all the rabbits in his pasture should be emptied, so Elder Xu used his magical powers.
Zhang Chi followed Lao Xu to skin rabbits, but there was nothing he could do. There were only two idlers in the ranch, and there was also a slightly idle Melika. Lao Xu didn't dare to ask her to come over to help, so Zhang Chi was easier to deal with.
"Put the rabbit away. I'll use it to make a coat after a while." Old Xu added as he saw Zhang Chi peel off another piece of rabbit skin.
Zhang Chi has heard this several times. Rabbit skin is such a good thing, and it is still rabbit skin at this time.
If he wanted to use rabbit skin to make a coat, Zhang Chi would definitely choose rabbits in winter, when the rabbit fur is the best of the year.
But it’s not Zhang Chi who makes the coat, Lao Xu makes the coat, making rabbits whenever he likes them, and now Zhang Chi gets annoyed when he sees rabbits.
Throw the hung and peeled rabbit meat into the basin.
There were almost a dozen rabbits already skinned in the basin, and the results of two of them's labor were almost half and half. Both of them skinned the rabbits at a good speed, so in less than an hour, half of the rabbits had been skinned.
The remaining half of the rabbits were hiding in the cage in a daze, witnessing several of their companions being skinned and cramped. It would be strange if the living rabbits felt better.
The rabbit's internal organs were all returned to Ergou and Sanchi. The belly of Ergou, which had been unloaded, returned to its original state. I don't know where the kitten Zhang Chi was born, nor how many Zhang Chi were born, because Ergou has a certain knowledge of Zhang Chi.
This matter was handled very closely, and Zhang Chi didn't notice any movement. The two dogs had already given birth to kittens.
Sanjou is now guarding the bottom of the stairs all day long. He and Ergou's child are at the bottom of the stairs, that is, in the open space under the gallery.
Zhang Chi is not in a hurry, because he also knows that there is probably no thing in this area that can harm Ergou's child, so he also believes that it won't be long before Ergou will appear in the house with his child.
Ergou ate a lot, and almost all the internal organs of several rabbits were eaten by Ergou. Of course, Ergou only picked up some livers, hearts, and the like, and was not very interested in the intestines.
Sanjou didn't have much interest either.
So this part belongs to Zhang Chi’s chicken.
After more than a year of breeding, Zhang Chi's chickens have grown very fat. Like the geese, Zhang Chi's eggs are far inferior to those of the chickens that lay eggs.
It wasn't until Brian and Melika arrived that the situation was reversed.
The main reason is that Melika eats some fitness meals from time to time. The main source of protein is egg white. She won’t eat egg yolks, but she won’t throw them away. If Melika doesn’t eat them, her husband Zhang Chi will take over.
When Zhang Chi didn't want to take over, there was still Mo Zhi.
Therefore, no matter what happens, nothing will be thrown away from an egg. Except for the egg shell, it will be completely consumed.
Zhang Chi's chickens are also very fierce. Free-range chickens are generally fierce, especially roosters. Apart from eating, these things fight all day long. If you win, you will feel proud, but if you lose...well, generally speaking
, most of it may fall into Zhang Chi’s fault.
Spicy fried chicken is one of Zhang Chi’s specialty dishes.
"I'm going to the toilet." Lao Xu threw down the rabbit in his hand, then went to the side and picked up a water pipe to rinse his hands, and then went to the toilet humming a tune happily.
When he came back, Lao Xu had a mysterious look on his face, clasped his hands together, and came over with a smile on Zhang Chi's face.
Zhang Chi looked at his appearance and joked: "Why, did you bring the shit back?"
Lao Xu said with a look of disgust: "You are too disgusting, I will show you something good."
Zhang Chi thought it was a good thing, but when Lao Xu's hand showed a crack, Zhang Chi was disappointed.
"Is this a good thing?" Zhang Chi asked, rolling his eyes.
Lao Xu said: "Why isn't it a good thing? High protein!"
What Lao Xu is covering in his hand is... how should I put it, let's say it's a locust. It doesn't look like it. Zhang Chi doesn't know its scientific name, but the big guys in Zhang Chi's hometown call this thing Da Qiao Po, and Zhang Chi doesn't know either.
What does it mean? Anyway, I have heard others call it that since I was a child.
This thing looks like a locust, but it also looks a bit like a praying mantis. It just doesn't have the two broadswords of the praying mantis. It has a long head with two thick beards on its head. It's also big, bigger than a locust and slightly smaller than a praying mantis.
"Isn't this Da Qiao Po, that's what we call her in my hometown," Zhang Chi said.
Lao Xu said: "Our hometown is called Green Woman, and this thing is a good thing."
Zhang Chi said: "If you dare to come to my ranch for so many days, you are blind. These things are everywhere."
Zhangchi's pasture has good grass, and naturally there are many insects. Apart from the useful dung beetles, most of them are useless, such as the big Qiao Po.
These things must eat grass, so their presence is a negative factor for pasture.
Fortunately, the number is not large, and Zhang Chi's chickens will also eat these things, so it has not had a bad impact on the ecology of Zhang Chi's ranch for the time being.
"You're not going to catch this and eat it again, are you? I'm telling you, if you're embarrassed, don't drag me along with you and let the Americans see what it looks like. You think we Chinese all eat insects," Zhang Chi said sternly.
Lao Xu said: "Don't worry about them! These people want to think of you and look down on you. They can come up with countless reasons. I eat whatever I like and it's none of their business!"
Hearing what Lao Xu said, Zhang Chi knew that this guy was definitely going to capture Grandma Qiao.
"As long as you don't let me catch you, it's up to you," Zhang Chi said.
Lao Xu said: "You don't need to, I will catch them myself later and wait for them to be fried in the oil pan. Then you will know what delicious food is in the world."
Nice romance novel
"Go ahead and enjoy your meal," Zhang Chi said.
The two of them were chatting with each other when suddenly Zhang Chi's cell phone rang.
Putting down the knife in his hand, he came to the water pipe, stretched out his hand to wash away the rabbit blood, squeezed out a little hand sanitizer, and washed his hands.
After shaking the water twice, Zhang Chi took out the phone from his pocket.
When he took it out, the phone had already been hung up. Zhang Chi found out that it was Miller who was calling, so he called Miller back.
"Hello!"
"George, George, new news, someone over in Barry town picked up a herd of cattle in the mountains!"
Miller told Zhang Chi that he had obtained the news.
Zhang Chi's first reaction when he heard the news was: Damn it, has someone finally found the herd?
How many days had passed since the cattle were thrown out? Zhang Chi originally thought that someone would find the cattle in two or three days at most, but it was only now that Zhang Chi heard the news.
"How many...how many?" Zhang Chi asked.
"Quite a few, rumors are one or two hundred, but I have definite news here, there are almost more than five hundred. In addition to cows, there are calves, and there are four or five bulls. And this breed of cattle does not belong to all the current breeds.
The breeds of cattle are very big, and their weight is actually 15%-20% heavier than the current cross-breed cattle, which is incredible..." Miller said excitedly.
Five hundred heads?!
Zhang Chi felt that this guy's luck was really good. If he threw a group of 500 animals, Zhang Chi only threw two or three groups, and the first one he found was the largest group.
Miller's excitement is understandable. When selling ordinary cattle, one cow costs about a thousand dollars, and five hundred cows costs at least half a million dollars.
Half a million dollars is not a small number, and most Americans have seen this number stuck in their checkbooks throughout their lives.
After talking excitedly, Miller asked: "Why don't you go to the mountains to try your luck?"
Zhang Chi was still pretending and said to Miller: "If you think you can find it, it will cost you around five hundred...".
"You are stupid. This is a new breed of cattle. To breed into such a population, there must be more than just these five hundred cattle. There must be at least ten times this number of cattle. Otherwise, it would be impossible...".
Miller taught Zhang Chi over the phone.
Zhang Chi secretly laughed in his heart. It was Zhang Chi who had the final say on how many cows there were in the wild, but he had no way to tell Miller.
After chatting with Miller for a while, Zhang Chi just put down the phone and was about to continue peeling rabbits, but who knew that Nell called again.
We are talking about cows. If you pick up more than 500 cows for free, that means at least half a million dollars for free. When this kind of news spreads, it is like the wind, blowing throughout the entire countryside in an instant.
After chatting with Nell for another ten minutes, Nell had already decided to take his family into the mountains to look for cattle tonight. He called just to inform Zhang Chi and ask him to go into the mountains to try his luck.
.
In Nell's view, since people in the small town of Bari can find herds of cattle, and the two towns are actually not that far apart in a straight line, there may be a herd of bison in his own area.
The best thing to do is to set out as soon as you get the news. The herd waits for no one. If you are slow, maybe the cattle that originally belonged to you will be found.
Nell didn't think about anything else. There were many cowboys like Nell. Everyone made their own judgment immediately, that is, there must be other herds of cattle in the mountains. The next thought was that they wanted to
Go find it.
Americans sometimes have very simple ideas, just like their ancestors. They couldn't survive in the Old World, so they ran to the New World. When they heard there was gold somewhere, they just took their things with them and went there. They didn't care about the news.
How credible is it that based on a rumor, they can go from the east to San Francisco to pan for gold?
Now I heard that there are cattle on the mountain, and that some people have found a herd of cattle. The enthusiasm of many cowboys who got the news was instantly ignited.
Everyone believes that if you found 500 cows this time, then I might find a herd of 1,000 cows next time.
"Good luck!"
Zhang Chi smiled and gave Nell a strong blessing.
Although they are friends, Zhang Chi is not prepared to provide any convenience to Nell. He goes into the mountains by himself. Whether he can find him or not depends on his own luck.
