After counting the number of cattle, Cannon glanced at Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi instantly understood what Cannon meant, took out the satellite phone from his pocket and started dialing.
These equipment are necessary for going into the mountains. No matter who goes into the mountains, they will bring this equipment with them, because no one knows what kind of difficulties they will encounter.
The mountains are not the outside, and even if there are accidents outside, let alone in the inaccessible forest.
Sometimes no animals are needed, just a sudden change in weather can send a person away.
Zhangchi Ranch.
Melika woke up very early today, and her mind was a little confused. It seemed that she slept a little lightly when Zhang Chi was not at home.
Melika got up as soon as dawn, rode a horse around, and felt a little better. When she came back, she met Aunt Lu who was preparing to make breakfast for everyone.
Aunt Lu said enthusiastically: "Miss Mei, let's eat together in the morning. I've made soy milk, fried dough sticks, and cabbage buns here."
Needless to say, Aunt Lu said that Melika had already seen Uncle Chen busy beside the stove frying fried dough sticks. The big fried dough sticks looked very appetizing.
"Okay, thank you. I just don't want to cook in the morning." Melika smiled.
Originally, Merika planned to drink a glass of milk in the morning, then make herself a sandwich, and then have a small bowl of fruit cereal to deal with it.
Returning to the meal she had before the wedding, Melika felt that she was a little uncomfortable for a while.
When she woke up this morning, she suddenly said, "Zhang Chi, I want to eat this morning..." When she came to her senses, she realized that Zhang Chi was not at home.
This made Melica feel a little incredible. She had never felt that she would care about someone so much. She had never felt this way before, not even her parents.
Just when Melika wanted to say something more, the phone rang.
Melika recognized at a glance that this was the number of her satellite phone. Just as she was about to answer it, she heard Lao Xu stick his head out to say hello to her while driving.
Melika waved her hand at Lao Xu, indicating that she understood.
As soon as the phone call came through, Melika heard her husband's voice.
"Hey, wife!"
Melika felt herself instantly happy, but she still pretended to be calm and replied: "What's the matter?"
"I found the herd!" Zhang Chi wanted to cheer himself up, and he had to be emotional when saying this.
However, Zhang Chi overestimated his acting skills and underestimated Melika's IQ and keen perception.
"Really? Congratulations, did you find one end or two?"
Melika didn't feel that her husband was too happy, so she felt that he must be teasing her, so Melika simply showed her intention to cooperate with her husband.
When Zhang Chi heard this, the girl really thought she had lied to her, so she said, "I'm serious, let's do this. I'll give Cannon the phone and you let him talk to you.
Oh, by the way, am I not stupid? You can’t post videos or photos, but you can listen to the sound of cows braying.”
As he spoke, Zhang Chi put the satellite phone up.
Several cow noises reached Melika's ears, and her expression immediately became serious.
However, it was really difficult for her to accept the news for a while. How long had the three husbands been gone? It was less than a day, and there was still an hour or two left before the twenty-fourth hour.
Have you found the herd now?
Isn’t this too childish? Is it so easy to find cattle?
Melika felt as if her intelligence had been rubbed on the ground several times.
Not only Melika, but also Cannon felt that his boss went out this time because he felt that staying at home was a bit unbearable and wanted to go out to get some fresh air.
They were all men. Cannon felt that he knew BOSS well. His views on marriage were a little different before and after marriage. His wife felt a little nauseous when she saw her. Anyway, that was what he thought at the time.
So, this trip is actually just for fun. Cannon will lead the team, serve Zhang Chi, the boss, have a good time, and then come back two days later, shaking hands.
Now in this situation, everyone agreed to go out for fun, but you insisted on bringing a study material with you. You just brought it with you. You even got a perfect score on the exam. This... makes people don't know what to say.
"BOSS, I'm Cannon, we really picked up a cow...".
Zhang Chi is the BOSS, and Melika is also the BOSS.
Listening to Cannon's words, Melika felt that the joy of finding money passed through the radio waves and hit her face so hard that she couldn't stop it.
Lao Xu and Aunt Lu were standing next to Melika at the moment. Lao Xu had just stopped the car. He went to a construction site in another place yesterday and came here in the dark early this morning.
The two looked incredulous when they heard Cannon's voice on the phone and said they had found the herd.
It was already considered lucky that Lao Xu picked it up, and now Zhang Chi actually picked it up again. This made the two of them wonder: Is this cow so easy to pick up?
Thinking about it carefully, this thing is really strange. In such a big mountain, there are not many people who have picked up cows. Even Lao Xu has picked up a lot.
There are more dozens or hundreds of them, and now the most rumored family has found about a few hundred.
In this way, the news is only counted on two hands, that is, less than ten people have found the herd.
Now Zhang Chi and the others found the herd of cattle within less than a day of going out? And there were thousands of them. The cattle looked so worthless.
The two wanted to ask, but it was really hard to ask.
What did you say? You said you picked up the herd?
Is it so easy to pick up?!
That person must be thinking: Why are you allowed to find it but we can’t?
Although Melika may not necessarily think so, it is impossible for Lao Xu to give her the space to think of this path. If she doesn't have this ability, then Lao Xu will still be doing business. With this kind of emotional intelligence, it is good to work honestly and do business.
If you talk like that, you might get beaten.
Melika was stunned.
Because she heard the number from Cannon's mouth, if Zhang Chi had said such a number, Melika would have laughed at him, thinking that she wanted to lie to herself.
But Cannon, Merika still believed in him. This guy was not very good at lying, he was serious about his work, and he never made trouble with Merika.
Wow!
Melika turned her head curiously and found that the key in Lao Xu's hand had fallen to the ground, and Lao Xu was bending down to pick it up.
Lao Xu also heard the number, and he was a little shocked and didn't know what to say.
Even Aunt Lu, an indifferent intellectual cook, felt that she was losing her mind at this moment, let alone a guy like Lao Xu who had no education.
Is the gaffe new?
Cannon and Melika talked about their immediate arrangements. Now they definitely cannot go as planned to get them anywhere. If he had wings, Cannon would like to carry these cows one by one and fly them back to the pasture, because he only has wings.
When we arrived at the ranch, it seemed that these cattle really belonged to Zhangchi Ranch.
After chatting for about ten minutes, Cannon hung up the phone.
After Melika put down the phone, she started dialing again. While dialing, she walked into the house.
Lao Xu was a bit gossipy and wanted to follow what was going on, but his reason made him stand still.
"This is such a coincidence."
Seeing Melika enter the house, Lao Xu said something to Aunt Lu.
"It's indeed a coincidence, but who can tell clearly about things in this world?" Aunt Lu smiled calmly, then turned around and returned to the fried dough stick stove, helping her husband Lao Chen start frying fried dough sticks.
.
Old Xu looked at the old couple with a confused look. Actually, Old Xu didn't quite understand how the old couple could live such a carefree life. Maybe it was because of helplessness.
After thinking about it for a while, his attention returned to Zhang Chi finding the herd of cattle.
Lao Xu felt that his luck had already reached heaven. Who would have thought that Zhang Chi had even better luck? He went into the mountains and found more than 2,000 of them at random.
More than 2,000 cows. How many US dollars does this total? According to the current price of new cattle, this is enough for ordinary people to live comfortably for a lifetime.
After entering the house, Melika immediately called the ranch in Colorado and asked the ranch manager there to send people over. No matter what matters were at hand, two or three more people had to be sent over. She had to take these with her personally.
The cowboys are heading into the mountains.
When the manager of Colorado received Melika's call, he didn't hesitate at all. Everyone knew Melika's temper, so he immediately arranged for the best cowboys to drive over directly.
Zhang Chi and Cannon were discussing how to drive the cattle back.
More than 2,000 cows are actually not too much of a problem for three cowboys and two cattle dogs. The key is the choice of route. Everyone wants to avoid crowded places as much as possible.
Nowadays, people who go into the mountains to look for cattle are just like people who dug gold mines in the past. They are too blind and there are too many. And now a new sign has appeared, that is, among the people who go into the mountains to look for cattle, there are outsiders.
Everyone here has a bad impression of outsiders. Regional discrimination is also common in American society. Just like many old-school people in the West, they look down on Californians and think that these people are not a good thing.
When I have nothing to do, I just do things that are not done by humans to disgust everyone.
The route was chosen quickly. In fact, it was impossible to give Cannon much time. In the shortest time, a route was decided, and then everyone packed up and prepared to drive the cattle.
As for breakfast, according to Cannon's suggestion, don't eat leisurely, just deal with it on horseback.
For the rest of the journey, Cannon's idea was to take as little rest as possible. If the cattle couldn't bear it, everyone would rest with the cattle.
At this time, people are no longer human, and their status is definitely not as good as that of cattle.
Zhang Chi's task is still to cut off the rear, because it is better to rush to the rear, while Cannon and Brian are responsible for both sides.
Cannon's task will be heavier, because he also needs to pay attention to the movements of the cow.
What surprised Cannon and Brian was that this herd of cattle was not difficult to drive. As long as one cow was controlled, the herd of cattle was quite obedient.
