It was getting late, so they tidied up the scene, put things in order, and put everything in their place. The three of them ended their work for the day.
Back at the house, Zhang Chi and his uncle Zhang Youliang were cooking, while Lao Xu was choosing vegetables with Gu Ying and Melika.
The simple home-cooked stir-fry, full of Chinese flavor, made Lao Xu happy to eat it. Although Aunt Lu's cooking skills are also good, Aunt Lu's cooking skills are long-lasting, and the stir-fries taste good, but they are not as good as those made in the past.
Zhang Youliang’s craftsmanship as a formal restaurant chef.
After dinner, I sent my uncle and auntie off, and Lao Xu patted his belly happily and went to do some odd jobs with the workers on the construction site.
Zhang Chi and Melika were in the house, not having much of a world together. Melika was busy, while Zhang Chi flipped through books for a while, rolled out some ink and began to take a nap.
Melika already knows what Lao Liu is doing, but she has no choice. Lao Liu can afford the money and is willing to pay for it. What can she do? She can't make people stop selling it, so this matter still has to be done.
It didn't even start, it's already gone.
Melika is looking for other pastures at the moment, and the Sivier Ranch is not available. The pastures that are farther away can be obtained at a reasonable price.
If you really can’t afford the pasture, you might consider renting it long-term.
In short, it's still the same sentence, the price is right, the method doesn't matter.
Buying a ranch or a house is not something that can be done overnight. You have to look at it and compare it before you can make a decision to make the money.
If Zhang Chi were to operate it alone, it would probably annoy Zhang Chi to death, but now that he has Melika, Zhang Chi really has peace of mind.
Guan Jian worked by himself while her husband slept, and Melika was not like an ordinary woman. When she was busy working, she couldn't bear to see others idle. Not only did she not take it seriously, but she even found Zhang Chi a blanket to cover herself.
After many women get married, they like to take care of this and that, and don't want their husbands to be idle. Even if their husbands play games for a while, they think why don't you read a book and learn a lot of good things.
Many men can't stand such a woman. It's not like marrying a wife, but marrying a mother.
If Melika were such a woman, Zhang Chi probably wouldn't be able to survive for a month.
Fortunately, Melika is not. Melika has high demands on herself, but she does not have high demands on others, especially her husband Zhang Chi. Apart from finding a woman to raise her, Melika thinks of other things.
Everything is fine.
After he was done with his work, he called Zhang Chi up, and the two of them washed up together and then went back to the room to rest.
Early the next morning.
When Zhang Chi got up, he found that God had changed his face and there was light rain falling in the sky.
"This... damn weather," Zhang Chi complained.
How to make a planting basket on a rainy day?
After turning around and walking around the house, Zhang Chi felt that staying in the house was not a problem. After thinking about it, there seemed to be another idler in the entire ranch, and that was Lao Xu.
Zhang Chi had never thought that Lao Xu was so important. He put on his poncho and rain boots. Zhang Chi came to Lao Xu's car and knocked on it a few times. Seeing that there was no response, he put his face against it and turned inward.
Take a look.
After looking at it, I realized that Lao Xu was not in the car.
If Lao Xu was not in the car, he must be at the construction site, so Zhang Chi walked towards the construction site.
As expected, Lao Xu was working as an installer here, installing panels on the switch boxes on the wall.
"It's raining, so we probably won't be able to do it, but you have nothing to do anyway. The food my uncle and aunt brought is enough for you to eat for a few days," Lao Xu said with a smile when he saw Zhang Chi coming.
"You are working as an electrician again. Do you have a certificate? The operation regulations are not standardized and you are doing this job?" Zhang Chi teased Lao Xu.
Old Xu chuckled: "You wouldn't have thought, I'm a serious electrical engineer with a certificate. That means I didn't bring my certificate today. If I had, I'd slap it right in your face."
Zhang Chi has nothing to do here, and the job is really simple, just close the lid. How can this job be difficult?
So Zhang Chi, who was wearing a safety helmet, joined Lao Xu again.
When it was almost noon, Lao Xu called Zhang Chi while taking off his gloves.
"Let's go and show you some good things," Lao Xu said to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi took off the gloves from his hands and asked with a smile: "What good things? There are good things that you didn't take out yesterday. Today you are full of energy."
"I didn't pay much attention to it yesterday. I took a look at it in the evening and realized that everything is almost there. The professional procedures have been completed. You can just do the rest by yourself," said Lao Xu.
He was confused by Lao Xu, but Zhang Chi still followed Lao Xu.
Lao Xu and the others have a temporary office here. It is more like a large house than an office. People can live in it, and it can also be used as a storage room. In short, they can put whatever they can.
Now that the weather is nice, workers don't need to live in the house. They usually sleep on the construction site, so the house is full of sundries, such as work clothes, tarps and the like, and some wood materials.
Zhang Chi was quite curious as to why Lao Xu brought him here, but when Lao Xu lifted off a tarpaulin, he finally understood.
"Has the deer antler wine been soaked?" Zhang Chi saw two bottles under the cloth. The bottles were exactly the size that Lao Xu held for him at that time.
There is one in each of the two bottles that has been cut into pieces, but it can still be seen that it is a complete deer antler.
The wine in the bottle is now blood red and looks a bit scary.
"I'll take this bottle away. You can take the rest of the bottle wherever you like, but you can't drink it yet. When the wine starts to turn a little yellow and the red is not so bright, the wine can really brew well.
"Lao Xu said.
Seeing that Zhang Chi didn't seem to be listening, Lao Xu said: "Forget it, I'll give you a call when I open the drink, and you can drink it then. Just don't drink it if I don't let you drink it."
.
"I don't usually drink much," Zhang Chi replied calmly.
Zhang Chi really doesn't believe much in this so-called "big tonic wine". The so-called tonic is what he eats, and Zhang Chi thinks it's completely irrelevant. Otherwise, that person eats beef whip as a vegetable every day. Why would you see such a person?
A bullwhip grows out.
However, Lao Xu cut deer antlers in his pasture. Zhang Chi felt that it would be bad if he didn't take the wine himself, so he walked outside holding the glass bottle.
"Just leave like that?"
Lao Xu saw that Zhang Chi didn't even have a polite word, so he said one.
"Otherwise?" Zhang Chi turned around and asked, with a look of surprise on his face.
Lao Xu shook his hand and said, "Go ahead, go ahead."
Zhang Chi carried the bottle back to the house. By this time, Melika had already gotten up and was working out and doing simple training. Melika would do it every day when she had time. Zhang Chi followed curiously for two days and then gave up.
.
"What are you holding, red potion?"
Melika saw Zhang Chi coming back with a bottle of red water. She didn't know what kind of weird thing it was, so she asked aloud.
"Lao Xu made deer antler wine and boasted that it was a craft passed down from his ancestors. I didn't want to take it for free, so I took a bottle back and hid it. Whether I want to drink it or not is another matter."
Zhang Chi said, holding the bottle and walking towards the small storage room of the house.
Melika said: "Don't put it there, otherwise the bottle will be broken when the ink comes in to play with it."
"Then where should I put it?" Zhang Chi didn't know where to put it.
Melika said: "It's whatever you want, as long as it's not put in the storage room."
Zhang Chi held the bottle and walked around the house for a while. Finally, he thought, just throw it into the gourd. The house was originally small, and there were so many messy things.
When I came out, I saw that Melika had stopped and was talking on the phone instead of doing exercise.
Zhang Chi waited for a while and saw Melika put down the phone, and then he was ready to ask who was here.
I didn't mean to ask who called, I just asked casually. It's the same level as HELLO, a simple greeting.
It's not that she's in charge of Melika, even if she calls Zhang Chi, she has to ask her all the questions.
Before Zhang Chi could open his mouth, Melika opened her mouth and said: "GIPSA called and asked us to provide a sample of Black Bull...".
"What kind of dog is GIPSA? What kind of place is this? Why is it so loud?" Zhang Chi thinks this GIPSA is a bit of a dog!
Melika smiled and said: "The Grain Inspection, Wholesale and Animal Husbandry Administration under the Ministry of Agriculture. They are very interested in new cattle breeds. They are going to count the number of these cattle and create a file. There are also all the current cattle breeds.
The discovered cattle, including their living tissues, bull semen and other things, are not allowed to be shipped out of the country, pending their evaluation."
Zhang Chi really didn't expect that this group of people would be so fast. It didn't take long for them to see this new breed of cattle and respond to it.
"That's their business, why...".
Before Zhang Chi finished speaking, Melika said: "They gave us money to help us file these cattle."
As soon as he heard about the money, Zhang Chi immediately changed the subject: "You told me earlier, why did the name sound so smooth when I heard it was GISPA? If you look carefully, isn't this just a GI-SPA for you?
, when I hear this name, I know that it is a good department that serves the people, and it has been integrated into the SPA. Can you tell me how bad it is?"
Merika was happy: "What the hell are you talking about? What kind of spa? It's PSA, GIPSA!"
"Same, same" Zhang Chi smiled.
Zhang Chi naturally welcomes this good deed of giving money and classifying himself.
It was not only Zhang Chihuan who received the call, but also all the ranches where new cattle were found, and individuals received the call. They were all asked to truthfully provide the number of cattle they picked up for inspection.
After all, it is a capitalist country, and the protection of livestock species and other species is really in place.
It's not just a day or two here, nor does it affect Zhang Chi and Melika's happy life, so they still have to eat lunch. As for whether to sleep in the afternoon or continue to play at the construction site, it depends on their mood.
.
It's raining outside, and the available living space is really small. For Zhang Chi, Cannon and Brian don't have this idea. They have to pay attention to the cattle.
They are blind to the character and preferences of the new herd, so now you have to be more careful and pay attention to the changes in the herd.
