Zhang Dawei interviewed the first cowboy, a cowboy in his forties. Being in the prime of life and in the prime of life seems to be a good fit. It's just that he has a big appetite and has relatively high requirements for salary, which makes Zhang Dawei dissatisfied.

As for the second cowboy, there is definitely no experience to say, it is said that he has more than 40 years of work experience. But he is indeed too old, he is in his early sixties, which makes Zhang Dawei very hesitant.

In TV and novels, western cowboys are very handsome, and these "heroes on horseback" called by Americans seem to be synonymous with adventure and hard-working spirit.

He wears a wide-brimmed high-top felt hat, a revolver repeating pistol or a shoulder rifle on his waist, jeans and a leather jacket, a tight-fitting multi-bag jeans with tight sleeves, a pair of high-leg leather boots, and a colorful and eye-catching printed scarf around his neck.

Such a cowboy is indeed handsome, and his image is powerful and free.

But it is only an image in literary works and works of art, and this is an image rendered by Romanticism.

Now in the United States, it is common to see some young people dressed as cowboys, and what they like is the image of cowboys in film and television works. A real cowboy is actually doing dirty and tiring work, and his income is the middle and low income of the United States, this is the reality!

"Older people definitely can't, the cowboy's job is manual work. Especially my ranch, which has just been built, has a lot of things, and it will definitely not work without individual strength. Zhang Dawei is seriously analyzing, which is also very simple to know, "A younger one may not be very suitable, I don't have any experience myself, basically everything has to be picked up by cowboys." ”

Thinking about it this way, Zhang Dawei felt that the cowboy he was going to recruit must have high requirements for his personality. If he cheats and cheats, then Zhang Dawei will basically become a wronged leader. It's one thing to spend money, the key is to influence the development of the ranch, that's the key!

"Wages can be a little bit higher, but only a little bit higher than the average, the normal level. Zhang Dawei still thinks that the salary is the key, "It's definitely not too high, my ranch is small, and the output at the beginning must be small." Regardless of how much money I make, I can't lose money. This labor and cost must be controlled. ”

Looking at the baby and Xiaobai who were running blindly at the door, Zhang Dawei continued to think about hiring a cowboy.

"Hire a cowboy, it's going to cost at least $2,000 a month, and that's almost the price of a cow. Zhang Dawei carefully analyzed, some basic knowledge, "No wonder the ordinary small ranch operation is under great pressure, this cowboy basically compresses the profit margin." It's a novice like me who wants to hire cowboys on a regular basis, so it's no wonder that small ranches basically hire cowboys for a short time when they're busy. ”

If this is a large ranch, it is normal to hire cowboys all year round, because there are many cattle raised, and the profits are relatively more. However, the model of small ranches is not good, because they can't raise many cattle, and naturally there is not much profit margin.

It is also a reality that some small ranchers in the United States basically do not hire cowboys, and basically run their own businesses.

"It's still going to take it slowly, first put up the shelves, and then raise more and more cattle. Zhang Da is firm in his goal, and becoming a big rancher is his pursuit, "It is still necessary to raise cattle or maintain the value of land prices, although the increase has been very low in recent years." ”

Although investing in land in the United States is one of the lowest returns, it is very valuable. Zhang Dawei thinks that it can still be considered, and because cattle raising is also good, it is relatively stable to become a large rancher.

Of course, this is also Zhang Dawei's personal ideal, he actually yearns for a large pasture, where he can ride horses and gallop, and can see cattle and sheep grazing leisurely.

Let's continue to hire cowboys, continue to interview, cowboys are not a high-end profession, and Zhang Dawei naturally does not need to worry about not being able to recruit people. As long as you have a little more patience and are willing to give a decent salary, you will definitely be able to hire a cowboy.

"Dad, our kitchen is the biggest!" the baby happily rolled on the floor, happily showing off, "Dad, I like this big kitchen, the biggest and biggest kitchen." ”

Zhang Dawei was a little amused and said to the baby, "Our current kitchen is not good enough, Dad will renovate the kitchen in a few days." The current stove in our house is not strong enough, and I can't cook Chinese food. ”

"Daddy, the baby likes steamed eggs, and the baby wants beef and potatoes. ”

Zhang Dawei was happy, looked back at the baby, and said word by word, "Potato roast beef." ”

The baby who was mopping the floor immediately laughed happily and continued to roll around on the floor hard. The floor at home is so clean now, and the baby is indispensable, because it is strange that this little girl does not roll so many laps on the floor every day.

There are not so many kitchens that can cook Chinese food in the United States, and they also need to be slightly renovated, because Chinese food is relatively heavy, and because the requirements for firepower are also slightly higher, which requires Zhang Dawei to spend money to solve.

Since it can be solved with money, it is naturally not much of a problem, and it is not very expensive anyway. Compared to renting a house in the city, many landlords will remind you that you can't cook Chinese food, I don't know how much, after all, the range hoods in those houses are not so fierce.

Snack baby really eats everything, as long as it is delicious, Chinese food or Western food, the appetite is very good!

Xiaobai is the same, as long as it is delicious, it eats it, and it is quite edible. But it doesn't grow, which makes Zhang Dawei very congested, because Xiaobai is a one-year-old dog, but it has always been an ordinary Labrador for three or four months, and it is almost not long!

I made a fairly hearty meal, and the whole family ate happily, and they all ate very well and were very satisfied.

The next task is naturally that the baby continues to watch cartoons, and Zhang Dawei hurries up to do housework. Washing dishes, cleaning, etc., these things are all Zhang Dawei, and these things are indeed very time-consuming.

"Dad, our new house is good, and the old house is good. The baby ran around the door and came back immediately, "Dad, the old house has a boat, and the new house is big and beautiful." ”

Zhang Dawei is happy, the little girl is very knowledgeable. Although our new house is not a luxury villa, it is indeed much better than the previous wooden cottage. Isn't this high-priced acquisition because of such a nice house?

"Your mother will come over in two days, and when the time comes, she will help us buy furniture, and our house will be even more beautiful. Zhang Dawei smiled, extremely happy and looking forward to it, "When the time comes, we will decorate our new home together, and our new home will definitely be more beautiful." ”

The baby happily slapped the little slap, jumping and jumping. Because the new home can be prettier, and even more so because her mother is coming.

The little ones are naturally carefree and have fun playing, while for the adults, they naturally have more things to do. In order to ensure that children grow up carefree, financial factors must be considered.

Zhang Dawei is now making phone calls, sending emails, and now he is continuing to recruit cowboys.

I was going to go to a bar, but of course it wasn't a bar for noisy young people, but for older people, farmers, and lumberjacks. But forget it, because you have to take the baby to sleep at night, no one in the family is worried.

As for taking the baby to the bar, I don't even think about it, the baby is still young and can't go to the bar.

"David, if you're looking to hire a great cowboy, I can recommend you. Zhang Dawei received a call, a call from Toms, the owner of the town's outdoor goods store, who is very well-connected, "If you can really do the treatment you said, I think many people are willing to give it a try and get this job." ”

Zhang Dawei was very straightforward and would not drag the mud at all, "Of course, since I have such conditions, I will definitely do it." Old fellow, I believe your recommendation. ”

Toms laughed, he really knew cowboys, because he ran an outdoor store and dealt with hunters and cowboys. And he is a native snake, in such a small town, although I dare not say that everyone knows it, but the vast majority of people still know it, especially the older ones, who are more familiar.

"I can give you Steven Carlisle's number, this is my old fellow. Toms didn't sell it either, he introduced the candidate, "This is an experienced cowboy who still works on the ranch. I'm sure he'll be able to do that, but you need to pay a good salary. ”

Zhang Dawei began to ask seriously, and did not agree because he had a good relationship with Toms.

The more I listened, the more I felt that Steven Carlisle seemed to be a good fit, and now he was not yet sixty years old, which was still quite young. But when I was a teenager, I started working on a ranch, so I naturally had a lot of experience. I used to work on a large ranch in Montana, but in the past few years I have only worked on a small ranch...... Carlisle wants to get a stable job, but not for too little pay.

Zhang Dawei thought about it, maybe it was quite appropriate.

"Hello, is this Mr. Steven Carlyle?"

"Who are you?"

"I'm Zhang Dawei, you can call me David. Zhang Dawei began to report his home, and said what he meant, "I am now running a small ranch and recruiting cowboys, and Thomas recommended you to me." ”

There was a brief pause on the other end of the line, then he said, "I know you, and I know your ranch. But I want to get a stable job, not a short-term job. ”

"If you can pass the probationary period, I will give you a long-term job ......"

That's no problem, because one is genuinely hiring cowboys, and the other is genuinely wanting a stable job. So naturally it's worth talking about it, because everyone is very sincere!
