If my sister Zhang Juan is obsessed with horseback riding this time, then my brother-in-law Sun Yanping is obsessed with guns. Ever since Zhang Chi took his brother-in-law to shoot a target for the first time in the ranch, Sun Yanping seemed to be obsessed with it every day.
I'm going to a simple shooting range once, unless it rains that day, otherwise I won't miss it.
Zhang Chi also went through such a stage, so he didn't mind too much that his brother-in-law was good at shooting. As for the money for bullets, it was even more trivial.
I don’t even think about what Melika did before. She wanted to buy bullets, but she used two boxes in one store like Zhang Chi. If two boxes were put together in one store, people would just buy them box by box.
When Sun Yanping and others saw Zhang Chi's storeroom for the first time, they thought they were in an arsenal.
"There are no bullets. I checked several times." Sun Yanping only pretended to throw the gun over, but actually did not throw it. In the end, he retracted his hand.
"Don't throw it away if you don't have any bullets. There are none today. What if there are some bullets some time?"
When it comes to playing with guns, you shouldn’t be careless. Even if there are no bullets in the gun, don’t point the gun at someone. This is the most basic thing. Every gun owner first comes into contact with a gun.
, the instructor or coach teaches this sentence, never point your gun at someone unless you decide to shoot him.
Sun Yanping smiled awkwardly.
Zhang Chi was not prepared to let it go so lightly, so he added: "You can't make a joke about this matter."
"Okay, you've gone too far." Zhang Juan began to protect her husband at this time and said something dissatisfied to her brother.
Zhang Chi said: "It's not that I'm troublesome, nor that I want to find trouble, but the bloody things are right in front of me."
While talking, Zhang Chi told the two of them something that happened nearby. It was a very simple story. Two children were playing with guns. They were in their teens. One child pointed a gun at his companion and hugged him. The result was
It's very cruel. The two children were also playing, playing carelessly, and finally killed one of them.
This kind of story is not uncommon here in the United States, because there are so many ways to get guns. Some adults are also like Ma Daha. They forget to lock the gun cabinet and let their children get the guns. In the end, there are not one or two incidents that lead to tragedy.
.
In the practice of old cowboys, it is not common to point a gun at others. Even if you want to warn someone, most of them will aim the gun at the person's feet and a meter away from the ground. It is rare to directly point the gun at someone.
Attractive.
You think this is the kindness of the cowboys, but it is not at all. Every step of operating the gun is paid for with human life.
"I was wrong, it won't happen next time." Sun Yanping also knew that he had gone too far, so he apologized to his brother-in-law.
Sun Yanping is good at this. He corrects his mistakes and doesn't feel lost because his brother-in-law said it. He will admit it when he is wrong. This is an extremely rare quality.
Having said that, my brother-in-law also admitted his mistake, and Zhang Chi put the matter aside.
"How does the gun feel today?"
Zhang Chi asked his brother-in-law with a smile.
Sun Yanping shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It can't be used, the recoil is too great."
What Sun Yanping tried today was a Sand Eagle, a Desert Eagle hunting pistol. In many movies and TV series, the Sand Eagle is the majestic protagonist weapon.
In fact, this gun is not a good gun. First of all, it is very heavy. Secondly, the recoil is large. It is impossible to use it without a certain amount of strength. Thirdly, its reliability is poor.
Its bravery in movies and TV series is mainly based on its appearance, that is, its appearance. If you want to hit the target easily with it, it will be quite difficult.
Let’s put it this way, this is a gun that has made a lot of noise just because of its appearance. There are very few face-control gun fans who don’t like it. Even if they know that it is useless, they still have to buy one.
For example, let’s take a certain prodigal named Zhang Mingchi.
Sun Yanping was also very proud of the Shaying's appearance. Today he took it to the shooting range to try it out. Let's just say he was excited when he went there, and his face was full of tears when he came back.
"It's not easy to use," Zhang Chi nodded and said.
Of course, Zhang Chi had used his own gun, but unfortunately, after playing with it once, Zhang Chi didn't want to use it anymore. It was really a pretty gun, and there really wasn't much to say except for its appearance.
Sun Yanping said: "The first shot almost shocked me. If I didn't pay attention, I would have sat on the ground."
"Just for fun, this gun is just for collection," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
"Why don't you just play that Beretta?" Zhang Chi said again.
"Forget it, I still like Wuliuhan, I will mainly play it next time," Sun Yanping said with a smile.
Now Zhang Chi's family no longer has the two or three guns they used to have. There are no fewer than twenty or thirty guns with long and short guns. They are also divided into guns from the ranching company and guns privately owned by Zhang Chi and Melika.
The ranch company's guns are mainly rifles and revolvers, and there are rules and regulations for their use. Cannon is mainly responsible for them. The guns in Zhang Chi's family are a bit varied. Now Zhang Chi is no longer the poor boy he used to be. Although he still doesn't have much money,
I still have a debt in the bank, but I still have money to buy some guns.
The most special thing in Zhang Chi's gun arsenal now is a 56 and a half. Buying it is purely out of sentiment, there is no other explanation.
Not only Zhang Chi liked it, but Sun Yanping also liked it, so Sun Yanping decided that if he wanted to have fun in the future, he would use half of it.
The two brothers were talking about the gun when the sound of a horse neighed in their ears.
Looking in the direction where the horse's neighing came from, I saw Cannon galloping towards me on horseback.
Seeing the speed of the horse, Zhang Chi knew that something was wrong with Cannon.
"What's up?"
When Cannon came to rein in his horse, Zhang Chi opened his mouth and asked.
Cannon said: "BOSS, the milk company informed us that the milk purchase price will be lowered again."
"How much?" Zhang Chi asked with a frown.
These days, the Zhang Chi family's milk supply is no longer as small as it was at the beginning. Now almost all Amber cows have given birth to calves, so the entire east and west pastures together produce quite a lot of milk every day.
.
The considerable milk production means that Zhang Chi does not have to deliver milk every day. The milk company sends a truck to collect it at his door.
Although the current milk production is many times that of before, Zhang Chi still has no bargaining power. He can sell it at any price. If you don't want to sell it, you can send it to another dairy farm.
If I send it to another dairy farm, the price will be higher?
If you think too much, you drag the milk for another hundred or two hundred miles. When you get to a large field, the price may still be the same. It cannot be higher than this price. Most of the time it is cheaper than the price you send to a nearby dairy farm.
Be lower.
Is the milk from Zhangchi Farm good? It can be said to be very good. In terms of consistency, it surpasses all the professional dairy farms nearby.
It's a pity that the same sentence remains, if you don't have pricing power, you will just be exploited by others.
Originally, Zhang Chi pinched his nose and admitted it, but just now, the milk company notified him that the purchase price of milk sources had been lowered again.
"Has it been turned down?" Zhang Chi asked again.
Cannon stretched out his hand and gestured.
"So much?" Zhang Chi didn't expect that the price of milk dropped by almost five cents. The money didn't seem like much, but it was a bit much when the quantity was large.
"They say the market is weak at this time," Cannon said.
Zhang Chi said: "It's been so weak all day long. It's either this or that. I haven't seen the price of milk in the supermarket come down. It's so damn weak here...".
Zhang Chi cursed.
After speaking, he waved to his brother-in-law and sister, and then led Zhang Chi into the house.
Called Melika down, and the three of them had a simple meeting together.
After hearing Cannon's news, Melika began to think about it, and it didn't take long before she said to Zhang Chi: "Accept?"
"Is there any other way if I don't accept it?" Zhang Chi said.
Nowadays, everyone is a slave and I am a fish. There is no room for Zhang Chi to choose. What others say is what they say. If you don’t sell it, others will sell it. So much milk every day cannot go to the house.
Even if a fat cat can drink, how much can a fat cat drink in a day?
Melika also felt aggrieved. She thought for a moment and said, "Then we just keep retreating?"
"Otherwise, what about deep processing? We don't have sales channels here," Zhang Chi said.
It’s not that Zhang Chi has never thought about the deep processing of milk. So what if you make the milk into cheese? Want to open the market for the products you produce? That’s so easy. Besides, Zhang Chi’s farm produces a lot of milk.
, quite a lot, but in front of professional cattle farms, it is nothing at all.
Even if the cheese is made and cannot be sold, it does not mean that the loss is greater.
Melika said: "It won't work if we keep doing this! We can't let people bully us like this and set up a cheese factory. When the products come out, we won't sell them domestically but export them directly. Let Zheng Bohong and the others think of a solution."
Zhang Chi thought for a while and decided to support his wife's idea. He was also angry. The milk company kept lowering the price again and again, which was really irritating.
As the old saying goes, if you don't eat steamed buns to fight for your reputation, clay figures also have a certain fire nature, not to mention a young couple with a lot of money.
"Where do you think it is best to buy land? How many manpower and machines are needed?..." Zhang Chi asked a series of questions.
Melika was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you want to buy land?"
"Don't you need to buy land to run a business?" Zhang Chi wondered if his daughter-in-law was like other women, pregnant for three years. If so, it would be troublesome.
"Just allocate a piece of land. Isn't there a piece of useless waste land on the west pasture? A cheese factory can be built there. The machines are simple. The milk production of our pasture is about the same as hiring five or six people.
Yes, our quantity is small. If the quantity is large, it would be more worry-free to sell it to a milk company. Of course, if the quantity is large, we have bargaining power."
Melika's mind is quite clear.
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "Then I'll do as you say."
"Well, BOSS, the cheese factory is not that troublesome. We can just do it ourselves," Cannon said.
After hearing this, Zhang Chi and Melika couldn't help but look at Cannon.
