"Strange? What's strange, it's just a little miscellaneous, I once said that there is grass from the Chinese side in it, but these cows are very strong to eat. Sanders looked at Thornton suspiciously, "It's just grass, what's so strange that the government bureaucrats are bringing in Asian carp."
Not to mention that most cowboys don't have brains, usually not grazing is fighting and drinking, Sanders's herding skills can be said to be one of the best in the entire Livingston neighborhood, but in fact, with his almost never left Livingston in his life, he really didn't sweep much.
"Isn't it strange, it's strange in itself. "Thornton wanted to pull down a piece of grass, but the root system was unusually strong and resilient, and it didn't shake it with a lot of effort": Sanders, the grass root system here is really enough. ”
Thornton has successfully transformed from a cowboy to a cattle broker over the years, traveling all day long, almost all of the United States can be found in his footprints, even in South America he has his clients, not to mention the growth of pastures everywhere, but also very familiar.
"Haha, Thornton is not that the root system of these grasses is particularly good, but the root systems of these grasses are entangled, you are against all the grasses, how can you pull it out?" Sanders, who was standing on the side, hugged his shoulders and looked at Thornton with a wicked smile on his face, thinking that he had tried this way in the first place.
"Huh?" Thornton was stunned for a moment, he had never heard of such a thing, "Sanders, you are right, this is a great thing, are all the pastures here like this?"
Sanders shook his head, "That's what we're like here, the rest of the place is ordinary pasture, and the place that extends a little bit is a state pasture over there, but it's not much. ”
"It's really a strange phenomenon, Zeng's luck is really good, with such a magical pasture, looking at the appearance of these Angus cattle, the meat quality is absolutely extraordinary, when the time comes, you'd better ask those bureaucrats of the Ministry of Agriculture to appraise the beef, it will definitely sell for a good price." Thornton couldn't help but sigh after listening to Sanders's introduction.
Sanders said proudly, "It's up to you to say that we're not cheap to those vampires." Looking at the cattle in the pasture, he felt like he was back to when he was younger, and he was full of energy every day.
While the two were talking, Jason arrived with the last batch of cattle and said with a smile, "Thornton, how is our pasture here?"
Not only Sanders was happy, but Davis and Jason were also happy that they were staying in such a pasture, the abundant pasture didn't need to worry at all, just concentrate on grazing, and if they felt that they were not racists for the first time, they would definitely miss out on such a place.
"It's fantastic, it's definitely the best pasture in the country. Thornton exclaimed, not a boast, even in places like Missouri that fully enjoy the irrigation of the Mississippi River. "It's definitely the most amazing ranch I've ever seen. ”
Hearing Thornton's admiration, several cowboys around him looked at each other and grinned, as if Thornton was complimenting them.
"What is so happy. Zeng Gong also rode a brown quart horse towards this side at this time, and when he got off the horse and saw a bunch of cowboys laughing here, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Thornton was complimenting us on the most abundant pasture in the United States. Sanders explained with a red face.
"Haha, Thornton said this late, even if you compliment me on my bet, it still asks for it, which at least reduces the cost of buying my cattle. Zeng Gong laughed and made a joke about Thornton, and then handed Thornton a written check. "I need more cattle, how about you get me 20,000 heads of Angus cattle of this quality?"
Thornton immediately patted his chest and promised, "No problem, I will do my best to help you make up for it, but I have added another hundred dollars to the operating costs." ”
Saying that, Thornton took the check from Zeng Gongde, took out a hundred dollars from his pocket, and looked at Zeng Gong patting his pocket proudly, pretending to cry and mourn.
The action of slapping the pocket was learned by Zeng Gong and a few cowboys in the ranch, and these cowboys would slap their pockets proudly when they usually bet, which made Zeng Gong depressed, but it also shortened the distance between them.
Looking at Thornton's appearance, several cowboys laughed again: "Thornton, we won't sympathize with you, you have to know that he usually lost nine out of ten bets, this time he won, we have to celebrate well in the evening." ”
"Oh God, Sanders, you can't do that, you have to know that I won the Cruze Ranch in Las Vegas, otherwise there is no chance that you will always win me, you know that bets are not what I am good at. Zeng Gong said with some distress, these beauties are too disrespectful to the boss, if it's too late to pat the boss in China, who dares to entertain the boss like this, otherwise they will fire the squid one by one.
"So, all of us think that we will only bet on you, and we will never gamble with you at the table, otherwise we will never get a knife all year round. Sanders unceremoniously struck that they had gambled with Zeng Gong once, and it was a nightmare, and there was no fun at all.
Sanders looked smug and depressed, Zeng Gong went to the side to draw circles and cast a curse**, while Thornton had a fight with the curious baby, constantly asking Sanders about them, I really don't know how a person of his age could have such a big gossip mind.
Johnny, who had long been impatient, rushed in front of Sanders to tell Zeng Gong's glorious history, which was a ups and downs, and his eyebrows were no worse than Shan Tianfang's, so Zeng Gong's words said that he didn't go to China to say that it was really humiliating.
"Thornton, how about we go to Livingston for a meal?" Zeng Gong looked at his watch, then at Johnny, who was dancing with his eyebrows and didn't want to stop at all, and couldn't help but interrupt.
Thornton also looked at his watch when he heard this, and said with a somewhat gloomy face: "Zeng, it's not early, we have to go back to find the source of cattle for you." ”
"No, Thornton, you may be misunderstanding me, it's our Chinese tradition, after completing a deal, people on both sides will sit together and have a meal. Looking at Thornton's appearance, Zeng Gong hurriedly explained.
"Hehe, Zeng, we don't have time to eat with you, I'm going to Bozeman to fly to Missouri to have a look, and when we finish the deal, let's celebrate." Thornton's face turned slightly pale, and he said with a smile.
In the end, Thornton didn't stay to eat, and left Zeng Gong's ranch with his team, which made him a little stunned and couldn't help but ask Sanders beside him, "Sanders, is there anything wrong with me?"
Sanders patted Zeng Gong's shoulder and said, "It doesn't matter, business in the United States is business, friends are friends, and you can't mix together." ”
Yes, it is a cultural difference, Zeng Gong really did not adapt to their way of thinking in the days of Lao Mei, it is estimated that this is also the reason why China and Lao Mei often pinch each other in the world, the meaning of the two sides is not the same at all, just like China and Japan, although they are close neighbors, and they are two forms of Confucian culture, but many views are completely contradictory.
Zeng Gong spread his hands: "Forget it, the cultural differences are too big, I still can't understand it, Thornton is not going, Sanders, Jason, Davis, let's go together, and by the way, discuss the future ranch management." ”
・・・・・
Full of wine and food, a few people ate dessert after the meal, Zeng Gong said to the three people: "I want to go back to China, as for the matter of cattle dogs, you still have a lot of contact, if not, you can buy some puppies." Thornton is here, and if I don't come back, you sue him, and I can transfer the money. ”
"Back to China?" The three of them were stunned, but they didn't expect Zeng Gong to suddenly make such a decision.
"yes, I'm a little homesick. Zeng Gong said with a sigh.
