In the spring, I was busy for a while, and in the summer, I had less work to do again.

Cowboys are very idle, except for some milking, cleaning the cattle pen and other work, the most energy is to pick up cow dung, a cow pulls an average of more than 20 kilograms of manure a day, and can not determine the location like cats and dogs, these things must be disposed of as soon as possible.

It is used to generate electricity in a biogas digester, used as fertilizer on the farm, and can also be processed into some fish feed, and a small amount is put into the sea, which is considered a feedback to the marine life, plankton, small fish and shrimp like to eat these.

Because of hard work, it is still clean, at least cleaner than the ranch in the south.

Zhang Xiaokai didn't know why his ranch was favored by the MV director, mostly because of the previous news reports, and the Cleveland ranch was filmed beautifully, anyway, someone came to the door and said that it was 5,000 US dollars to rent for half a day, and after bargaining to raise the price to 8,000 US dollars, he immediately agreed on behalf of his father.

If he hadn't hidden this money, he might get into trouble at the tax bureau, and Zhang Xiaokai wasn't even ready to tell his father that this money existed, so that the small treasury could be filled a lot.

Like other fourteen-year-olds, he loves stars.

But judging from the appearance, I actually like Angelina in "Tomb Raider" the most, and Jessica Alba, who is more in line with Chinese aesthetics, one is sexy and the other is sweet.

Today, I was lucky to see Avril without makeup, and quickly turned from a passer-by to a fan, still holding a pen and paper in her hand, and lined up with other cowboys to ask for an autograph, and then felt that the autograph was far less cool than a group photo, thinking that if there was a chance, I would take a group photo.

From a punk style bad girl to a pure young lady in seconds, many young cowboys even guessed whether they recognized the wrong person, and they just came with imitators who looked similar to her.

After asking the assistant, I got an affirmative answer, that is, Miss Avril herself was right, and when she finished putting on makeup, she recognized it.

With bodyguards present, I could only look at it from a distance, and a group of hillbillies who had never seen a star much, including Zhang Xiaokai, also stretched their necks, and when they saw her from more than ten meters away, they couldn't help but feel a little short......

In just a few minutes, the shooting time was very long, Zhang Xiaokai felt bored after watching it for a while, and before he could wait for the opportunity to take a group photo, he was first used as a coolie by his father and dragged to the orchard to help work.

The fruit tree seedlings planted last year gradually grew taller, some branches that consumed nutrients in vain needed to be pruned, and some of the dead trees that were not alive were blown crooked by the wind, which also took up manpower, and the father and son took two employees to take care of them there.

"Son, you said that our ranch is also famous now, I heard that there are a lot of big fish here, and since the beginning of spring this year, many fishing enthusiasts have come to fish near our fishing grounds, and now even the filming crew of popular singers has come. Didn't someone who was going to invest in a resort before, how about we build one ourselves?"

Father Zhang was pruning the branches of the fruit tree, and suddenly held back such a sentence.

Zhang Xiaokai looked at him and asked: "Anyway, there is still some money in the account, and you can get it, but it shouldn't make much money." ”

"It doesn't matter if you make money or not, the main thing is to deal with a group of cattle and sheep all day long, or you always feel too bored to deal with sea fish. ”

Today came a group of Zhang's father's college classmates, and the gang went to sea with the fishing boat, so he didn't need to receive him, so he had time to get busy with things in the orchard.

"That's okay, it's built on the cliff on the coast, and thousands of peach trees are planted around it, it's absolutely beautiful in spring, and the cherry blossom trees are also OK, it's better to build the house beautifully, there are definitely not many tourists, you can only increase the price of accommodation to make money, and the positioning is higher." ”

The most important thing is that his son is happy, and Daddy Zhang now attaches more importance to Zhang Xiaokai's emotions, it is like a different person, and Zhang Xiaokai is not a son.

The money I have earned recently, saving a little money is enough for the father and son to spend a lifetime, and happiness is the most important thing.

"You're the boss, you can do it, and when I get home, you can help me find the design drawings, and then I'll contact the engineering team to ask about the cost, if it's suitable, then try it." ”

"Just make a decision, don't play with me. Zhang Xiaokai said with a roll of his eyes.

With a total of 2,000 fruit tree seedlings, it is not difficult to take care of, but it is time-consuming.

When the weather is hottest, lying on the edge of the redwood forest and lazily, you can see the clear blue sky, the sun is shining, and the white clouds are floating in the sky, round, looking a little bloated, and it looks a little cute.

Perhaps, as Dad said, life here tends to be boring, not as colorful as metropolitan San Francisco, and it is actually a good thing to calm down and live here, and it is quite comfortable to live.

It's just that Zhang Xiaokai also adjusts this boredom by going to school, he can't do it, pastures and fisheries are inseparable from people, so it's a good thing to have a resort, once people get busy, they will feel that time flies.

When the phone rang, Zhang Xiaokai was about to fall asleep on the grass, and the white bear Mocha came over and lay beside him, his hair was still wet, and it was estimated that he had just come back from swimming in the river.

This big creature doesn't need to be fed now, there are enough freshwater fish in the river to fill its belly, and almost all bears have a talent for catching fish, except for the giant panda.

took out his mobile phone, saw that it was Mr. Stewart calling, and after chatting for a few words, he was stunned and told his father: "The copyright of the book I wrote with my teacher was sold, a total of 200,000 US dollars, and the publisher took half of it."

The accident may be moved into the cinema, and if the movie is not made, no one should buy the film and television rights, right? ”

He was slightly stunned, today, more than a year after the accident, he probably really put it down, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Who will I find to play us, I don't care, just make your mother beautiful."

Remember to call Mr. Lamborg and if they feel that they can't shoot, then don't be afraid, it's not our family's business after all. ”

"Okay, I'll call ...... in the evening."

At the beginning, Mr. Stewart was more passive, and the publisher took a larger share of the revenue, and for every book sold, they could only get a 5% commission on the sale price.

Fortunately, if the author does not sign, the publishing house cannot take out the copyright, this kind of thing must be communicated with Mr. Lanbao and solicit the opinions of the other party before making a decision, not to mention how happy or sad, mixed emotions are intertwined, and they are soon forgotten.

I was busy until the evening before returning home.

I thought that Miss Avril had already left after filming the MV, but when she came home, she found that the cars were still there, saying that she was going to shoot some more at nightfall, and hoped that Daddy Zhang would help prepare some food, and they would pay for the money.

With a lot of effort, I helped order some takeout, and let them pay for the restaurant by themselves, and I learned from the director that I wanted to continue to borrow the study, and I didn't refuse, let them use it as they pleased, just don't break things.

Zhang Xiaokai took a group photo, when Miss Avril came to the study, she picked up the pile of animal skins that had already hardened and cracked, and after reading it, she shook it and asked with a smile: "What are these recorded on them, the story of a bunch of people burying treasures?"
