Chapter 388 Big place

"Yes, yes, let's talk after we go back." After hearing what his grandson Zhang Chi said, Zhang Jiaren smiled at Zhang Youliang and his wife.

"Uh-huh!"

Zhang Youliang couldn't help but nod.

After saying this, Zhang Chi looked at the car on the roadside and couldn't help but feel a little confused, because there was only one pickup truck on the roadside. Although five people could sit in the car, six people could sit in it if they squeezed in a little, but even if it seats seven people,

What to do with the rest? Take a ride in a car?

So Zhang Chi looked at Melika and thought to himself: This little girl always does things in a high-key manner, why did she only drive one car when she came to pick up people today?

How could Melika not guess what Zhang Chi was thinking, but she didn't know that Zhang Chi called her a little girl, so she explained to Zhang Chi, Zhang Jiaren and others.

"Grandpa, grandma...Originally, my uncle was planning to drive here, but he was too excited, so I didn't dare to let him drive, so everyone squeezed in first. The elders will sit in the front, and we will sit in the back."

Zhang Jiaren was so excited when he heard the call "Grandpa". He didn't care where he sat, and even if he was tied up and dragged behind the car, the old man would still be smiling.

"What's the matter? It's such a small road, why can't we just make do with it? I'll sit in the back," Zhang Jiaren said.

There was no way anyone could let him sit in the back, so Zhang Jiaren and Miao Guifang sat in the front, Zhang Youliang and his wife also sat in the front, and the rest all went to the back compartment to deal with it, since there was only a few steps to go.

Zhang Youpeng and Li Xiumei sat in the innermost position, holding their grandson in their arms. There was a suitcase next to them. Zhang Juan and Zhang Chi sat in the outermost position. The trunk lid of the car was opened, and their legs were all stretched out.

The speed of the pickup truck is not very fast, so although the people sitting in the back feel a little bumpy, it is not unbearable.

"This road is not very good, it is full of potholes," Zhang Youpeng said to his son after waiting for the car to start moving.

Zhang Chi smiled and explained: "There are no urgent repairs yet. Firstly, there is no time to manage, and secondly, there is no money in the pocket. It is almost a mile and a half from the door to here. A good repair will cost a lot."

Money".

"One and a half miles?" Zhang Youpeng was a little surprised.

Zhang Chi said: "This is quite close. Some people's roads are further away. The main reason is that the pastures of other people next to us are large. They are ten times larger than our pastures."

Zhang Juan asked at this time: "Is this the big boss you mentioned?"

Zhang Chi nodded: "Yes, that's the guy."

"Then the trees on both sides belong to other people's homes?" Li Xiumei looked at the trees on both sides of the road. They were all as tall as canopies, and she couldn't help but start to wonder how much these trees could be sold for.

As an old man, most of the ways to quantify something when you see it is money. How much RMB can be exchanged is the most intuitive.

Zhang Chi said: "That's not true. These trees belong to our family."

"Then these trees are worth a lot of money, right?" Li Xiumei asked.

Zhang Chi said: "You need to apply for a permit to cut down these trees...".

"Do you need to apply for a certificate here?" Li Xiumei and others were surprised when they heard this.

She thought that Americans had to cut down trees for oil anyway, but it turned out that Americans didn't have to cut down trees for oil, and they also had to apply for a certificate, just like over there.

Zhang Chi said: "Yes, it's just a matter of review and approval. If you give the reason, it will be approved. Whether you do it or not is just one more hand entangled."

Although there are many forests here, if you want to cut down trees for no reason, you have to declare it. Of course, it’s okay if you don’t declare it. As long as no one has any objections or accuses you, no one will care about you, but there must be someone

I'll file a complaint, and I'll find out and confirm it. I'm sorry, you will feel very comfortable. It would be strange if your wallet doesn't lose weight.

Fortunately, Zhang Chi has no interest in cutting down trees. Even if he wants to cut down trees to make a fire, he only cuts down the trees on the state government mountain. How much effort does it take to grow his own trees to such a big size?

Since there are trees on other mountains, why bother cutting down your own trees?

This is one of Zhang Chi's principles of life.

You can't say this to your family. Firstly, it will affect Zhang Chi's image. Secondly, if you tell your family about it and publicize it, they might think that he is making money by committing crimes in the United States.

"How big is your ranch here?" Zhang Juan asked.

"It used to be more than 500 acres. Some time ago, I bought a piece of land with more than 2,000 acres. The total is almost 3,000 acres. There are more than 1,000 cattle here, and there are more than 2,000 cattle in the new land over there...".

Zhang Chi told his sister about the situation at the ranch.

As he talked, the car arrived at the gate of the ranch.

Zhang Chi jumped out of the car and opened the door, while Zhang Juan and others looked at the gate of the ranch. They waited for Zhang Chi to close the gate and jump back into the car, then started asking questions.

"This gate is too shabby. The gate is the facade. It should be renovated...".

Li Xiumei felt that the front door of her house was a bit shameful. Why did her son already have thousands of acres of land here? Before liberation, he must have been a big landowner or the like. The facade was not done well. It was so unsightly.

, not to mention that this is abroad, don’t let foreigners look down on us.

Zhang Chi laughed when he heard this and said: "Mom, who has nothing to do to look at your front door? Did you see the front door just now?"

"The gate is okay, but it doesn't have much momentum," Li Xiumei said.

Zhang Chi became even more happy when he heard this: "They have thousands of acres of land over there, and all the people coming in and out are their own private jets. Even if the gate is like that, it will make people laugh if we do better here."

"Oh, it turns out that this is the custom here. No one laughs at you if you are shabby...".

When Zhang Chi heard that my mother had thought wrong again, he said: "If you pretend to be shabby, no one will laugh at you. If you are really shabby, you will not be laughed at."

I remembered that when I first came here, many cowboys would make fun of me when they met me. This joke was obviously ridiculing. Maybe the person making the joke didn't really have any opinions, but the person listening would definitely not feel so comfortable.

After they sold their cattle and made money, most of the cowboys changed their attitude, got two groups of cows, and took over Nell's ranch. Now when they meet cowboys on the road, they have the nerve to tease Zhang Chi.

There are almost no cowboys left.

This is how strength determines other people's attitudes.

"That's your old house, right?"

Zhang Juan reached out and pointed at this time.

Zhang Chi followed his sister's gaze, took one look and said with a smile: "That's not my house, it's a cowshed. What kind of look do you have?"

"The bullpen?"

"Look at how big it is and how many houses there are for people to live in," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed: "That's my old house over there, and that's my current house directly opposite...".

Everyone has actually seen it, but there are a lot of buildings in Zhangchi Ranch now. Now that I have money in my pocket, the fodder cabin and tool room are all ready. Apart from these stables, these buildings are not much different from houses.

.So everyone has seen it, but they don’t dare to recognize it. Even if they have seen the house on the video, they still don’t dare to recognize it in reality.

"This house is really big." Li Xiumei looked at her son's big house with joy in her eyes.

"It's not that big, at least not as big as Brother Dawen's house," Zhang Chi said.

Zhang Juan laughed after hearing this and said: "Compared with him, the boss who collects money just by holding the paper can't make much more than you, a cattle farmer."

Zhang Juan now understands how her cousin Zhang Wen makes money. It would be a lie to say that she is not envious. Who doesn’t want to live comfortably in a large house of several hundred square meters?

, but you have to have that life!

Zhang Wen has this destiny, but Zhang Juan doesn't think she has it.

Although my brother’s house is big, compared to Zhang Wen’s house, it’s really a hair in the ass—I can’t even mention it!

Although I haven't entered the house yet, I have seen it in Zhang Juan's video. Even if it is the most beautiful, it is not as luxurious as the decoration of Zhang Wen's home. There is no accumulation of gold, silver and jewelry, but as soon as you walk in, you can't help but feel a sense of joy.

A very empty feeling in my heart.

What does wealth mean? As a teacher, Zhang Juan understood for the first time that her ancestor invented this idiom, which directly spoke to people's hearts.

"These cows...".

"Mom, what you see now, do you see the white fence on the east side and the iron mesh on the west side?" Zhang Chi pointed out.

Li Xiumei saw the white fence, but after looking at the iron mesh for a while, she realized that firstly, it was too far away, and secondly, it was thin and not as thick as a solid wood fence. One was white and the other was gray, making it hard to recognize.

.

Mainly because of the distance, more than 500 acres is not 500 square meters, so it's not so easy to see the end.

"Well, I saw it."

"Within these two sides, even a fly flying on the grass belongs to our family," Zhang Chi said jokingly.

Li Xiumei was delighted when she heard this: "You brat, what do we need flies for in our house?"

"Didn't we say hundreds of acres? Why is it so big?" Zhang Youpeng was thinking about hundreds of acres, but when he saw the scene, he felt that it was not hundreds of acres. I'm afraid even if he didn't ride an electric bike, he would have lost his legs.

And the shadows are too beautiful. After entering the door and passing through a few small woods, the rest of the place is an unobstructed view of the grassland.

Zhang Youpeng didn't know how to describe this beauty. He didn't speak for a long time. He just looked at the land. As a farmer, his feelings for the land cannot be expressed in words. Such a large piece of land belongs to his family.

It can be passed down to future generations. Zhang Youpeng's heart was filled with excitement at this moment.

Zhang Juan rushed to say: "They are talking about acres. If you exchange it for six, if you exchange it for our Chinese land, it will be more than 3,000 acres. This is the first time I heard that Sun Yan calculated it, which is almost 300 football fields."

…”.

"More than three thousand acres of land..." Zhang Youpeng was a little confused. He was thinking in his mind at this moment: How many cows must be raised, and how much can these cows be sold for?

Darling! This calculation in his mind soon made him a little confused.

When they came to the ranch for the first time, they realized how big their own ranch was. Originally, they heard it sounded like a few hundred acres, but other places nearby had thousands of acres, and the smallest one around them was their own ranch. They couldn't help but feel...

This place is really small.

But when I looked at the scene, it was not like that at all. Looking around this place, everything in my eyes seemed a bit empty.
