Chapter 166: Fishing in the Mori River (Part I)

"Where am I, who am I?"

The groundhog thought in the bumpy car, reaching over to hold the bag with one hand, and at the sound of a familiar call, it shook its head and bared its front teeth in a defensive gesture.

As soon as Han Xuan got out of the car, he saw the Labrador pudding barking non-stop, so he called it over and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"The two of them have fought before, and I know this groundhog. Old Barton looked into the bag and said with a smile.

"I saw that there was no scar on its face, it was caught by the pudding, and in the winter this groundhog ran into the sheepfold to steal the forage, and the two met, and was almost killed by the pudding, and I found out and saved it. ”

No wonder these two are not happy, it turned out that the enemy met, the groundhog stood in the bag and writhed, accidentally fell down, and hurriedly used his short legs to make a series of kicks, Pudding took two steps back, and was really frightened by it.

Old Barton pointed to the flock and said to Pudding, "Go over there, a few sheep have gone away, and drive them back." ”

Pudding looked at the groundhog, Wang Wang, and left obediently, the fat mouse sat down weakly, scratched his back with his front paws, stared at Han Xuan with round eyes, hurriedly set it aside, and then looked over again, with doubts in his eyes.

"Usually these little things are afraid of people, even if they are caught, they will slip away in the blink of an eye, and we all tied them with ropes at that time, and brought them to barbecue to taste the best. ”

Old Barton pinched the marmot's belly, raised his head and smiled: "It's a fat one, it can make a lot of snow lard, and my legs hurt on rainy days recently, so applying snow lard can alleviate it a little." ”

The marmot's eyes widened wider and wider, ignoring the pain, he crawled to the boy's feet, poked his head out to peek at Old Barton, grabbed Han Xuan's trouser legs and dangled them for help.

"Barton, let's go catch fish in the Mori River. The fishing season for the tapo has arrived, and I bought a fishing net yesterday. Father Han stood next to him and said.

"I can fish, but I can't catch fish with a fishing net. ”

"But I can recommend to you a man whose family used to be fishermen on the other side of Lake Canningfery, and Alexander remembers taking care of the Romney sheep cowboy. ”

Old Patton felt funny. Lifting the marmot, he said: "Boss, fishing for fish is a manual job, you can find someone else to accompany you, when I had breakfast, I saw Alexander go east, my fishing boat is in the Sen River, you can see it if you go straight along this road, let them be careful with it, the new guy you just bought." ”

"Thank you. Barton, let's go, son. ”

When the marmot saw the boy walking away, he immediately struggled to leave with them, his eyes desperate.

"Little one, don't move, let me see where it hurts"

……

The Sen River originates in the Teton Range, west of Flathead, and is 209 kilometers long. The section that flows through the snow-capped mountain pasture is considered upstream, and the width of the river is less than 20 meters.

For more than 100 years, people have been using wooden bridges to get through. The boy's father once thought of building a new bridge over the river, but the cost was too great for the other ranchers around him to pay for it, and in the end it was gone.

There was not much rain in the upper reaches of the country, and the snow in the mountains had melted by the end of August. Therefore, the water level of the Mori River is now maintained at a depth of about 3 meters, and the flow rate is slow, and the tapo fish like this living environment very much.

The water of the river is crystal clear, and there is a lot of sediment brought out from the upper reaches on both banks, and the water level has only been down for a few days. The reeds on the shore were soaked in water some time ago, and the upper and lower sections were of different colors.

The pale red crab was lying in the mud and sand spitting bubbles, heard the sound of a car moving, and hid in the hole with all eight legs.

"Boss, you go and talk to Barton, even if it's to sweep the cow dung, the stable is in a bad location, only people can be seen in the morning and evening, more than two hundred horses, brush it once in five days, and when it's all brushed, it's going to be washed again, I'm going to be tired." Martinez said as he rested his head on the front seat.

"Okay, okay, nagging all the way, I'm not going to help you with Jones often, watching you lie there and watch the ball game every day, how can it be so miserable. Anderson couldn't help but debunk.

Martinez waited for the car to stop, opened the door and got out of the car, babbling: "It's because I'm bored that I can watch it, besides, you only helped me twice, I called you the day before yesterday, it's not that you didn't come." ”

"I'm here to play today, just help me catch a fish, and then I'll let you brush it for two years. Han's father took two steps and found that the car key was not pulled, so he paused and continued to move forward, and no one nearby could see it, where did he steal the car.

The cowboy named Alexander was thirty or forty years old, taller than Martinez, Han Xuan had seen him before, but he was not very familiar with him, and now he leaned over and asked, "Mr. Alexander, are you two meters tall?"

"Two meters? I was two meters old at nineteen. Alexander's voice was hoarse, and he smiled at the boy's stiffness: "In the next few years, it slowly grew to two meters and seven, and my parents were both tall, which is estimated to be due to genetics." ”

Han Xuan turned his head to look at his father, thinking that he might be about 1.8 meters in the future, and he needed to raise his head to talk to Alexander: "It's definitely good to play in the NBA, it's really strong." ”

"I don't have that skills, or I wouldn't be a cowboy. Alexander replied with a smile, seeing that Han Xuan almost stepped on the wet and soft mud and sand by the river, he reached out and pulled him, picked him up easily, and put it on a wooden boat more than seven meters long.

Next to him, Anderson handed Alexander the fishing net in his hand, bent down and patted the hull of the boat: "It's really good, or Barton will enjoy it." ”

"You can just buy one, lend it to me for a vacation when the time comes, and row from here all the way to the Great Rapids, preferably with a cabin. Jones heard the interjection.

"yes, I'll buy a yacht and lend it to you?"

Anderson joked: "I have been taken care of by Cheryl, saying that when I save enough time to go to Europe for a few days, Alps, boss, arrange more vacations this year?"

"What's so interesting in the Alps, the ski slope of our ranch has also begun to be built, and when the time comes, take her to play, and I'll give you a 10% discount. ”

After Han Xuan finished speaking, he looked at Alexander: "The water is so clear, can there be fish, you can see the pebbles underneath." ”

"I don't know about the other fish, but the tapo and bass like this kind of environment, and look at the red shadows, that's the tamale. Alexander asked Jones to help smooth the nets, and paused to answer him.

Han's father couldn't help if he wanted to help, so he sat leisurely on the bow of the boat and said to Anderson: "My son is right, he can ski on the ranch in two more years, why spend that money, I have been to the Alps on my graduation trip, only the mountain is higher than ours, and it is not as beautiful as Montana." ”

Anderson didn't like the father and son, and refused: "Then go to the Greek Aegean Sea, our ranch can't even have a beach." ”

"I went to Greenland on my honeymoon, God, Cheryl didn't give me a good look for half a month, it was too cold, and there was a period of more than 20 degrees below zero, and I stayed in the hotel with her for three days without going out. ”

"Then you're not happy to die? I'm going there for my honeymoon. Martinez smirked.

"Hey, there's a kid here. Father Han took a water bottle and threw it over, and said with a smile: "Let's wait until you find a girlfriend first." ”

"Don't blame you, boss, there are more than a hundred people in the ranch, and there is not a single woman, I would have done it when Joanna came, damn it, let Hill take advantage!"

Martinez turned the engine joystick, and with a sudden sound, the water low propeller turned, and the small fishing boat broke through the water and drove downstream. (To be continued.) )
