Driving the car to follow the singing of U2 in the CD, humming softly, shaking his head from time to time, facing the warm morning sun, Ju'an went to pick up Dinah to stay at his ranch for two days, and the teddy in the car was also playing in the back seat, as for the three little wolves, Ju'an was going to keep them in the space, and when they grew up, they would be sent back to the woods, saving trouble. This guy is still a little hostile to himself, and even people like himself who have an animal affinity close to 100% can reach out, and it will be troublesome if he is released and bites others.

I drove the car happily, threw the unhappiness of yesterday to the back of my head, shook my head and quickly arrived at Dinah's farm, and just stopped the car in the yard, I saw Dinah come out of the house: "Arrived so early today!" ”。

"It's nothing to do anyway, I'll come and pick you up early" Ju An opened the car door, jumped out of the car, and said to Dinah with a smile.

Dinah walked to the back door and opened the car door, Teddy and the others were already waiting at the door with their heads outstretched, and while carrying a few little ones to the ground, she said, "Hurry up and enter the house, Daddy just brought back the finished deer head specimen, and by the way, he also took back your last deer skin, so you can go and see it too."

Ju An touched his head when he heard Dinah say this: "You didn't mention it, I really forgot that I still had a deerskin to take, okay, I'll go and take a look." After saying that, he walked up the steps and pushed the door into the house, and when he entered the door, he saw that Marcos was not in the house.

Turning to Dinah, he said, "What about Marcos' people?" ”。

At this time, Marcos heard Ju'an's voice and said loudly: "Come to my workshop!" ”。

Ju An listened for a moment, and Dinah behind him gently pushed Ju An, and then pointed to the seat of a door, indicating that Ju An was Marcos' workshop.

Ju An walked towards the door, and when he pushed the door open, good fellow! In addition to a desk, it was crowded with all kinds of things, and there were more than a dozen shotguns on the shelves next to it alone.

Marcos was sitting on a chair behind the desk, with the deer's head on the table, when he saw Ju An coming in, he stood up and greeted Ju An: "It's just right! Come and see, just got this guy back today, and your buckskin is on the couch outside." He then motioned for Juan to sit in a chair across from him.

Ju An followed the direction of Marcos's hand, and saw a chair with a small snow-white fox decoration, the chair was padded with a complete bear skin, the bear head seemed to be intact, lying on the ground, walked over and took the fox down, Ju An sat down on the chair, and found that the bear skin felt soft, far less majestic than he thought.

Marcosto walked over with the deer's head, placed him on a small table in the middle of the chair, and sat down on another chair: "Look at old Rick's craftsmanship is still so good!" ”。 After speaking, he pointed to the deer head on the table.

Old Rick is the owner of an ornament point in the town, Ju'an's first deerskin was also processed by him, traditional handmade, the leather made has no peculiar smell at all, it was introduced by Thomas at the time, saying that even a few people in the nearby city hunted good skins, and would send them to him to deal with, decades of craftsmanship, very trustworthy.

Ju An picked up the deer head, looked at it carefully, the whole eye and the deer hair looked very beautiful, just like the living, the antlers have also been treated, it looks very soft with a rough luster, the whole deer head is naturally deflected to the right, if it is hung on the wall, as soon as you push the door to see, it is like a deer looking at you, and the small stitching can not be seen even if you don't look carefully in your hand.

"What a craft!" Ju An admired as he watched. Lao Mei for these traditional crafts are well preserved, such as saddle making, although most of the saddle is now impacted by the mechanism of the saddle, but a good handicraft saddle is still the first choice of people with a little money, Ju'an these days in Montana life of a small feeling, it seems that the brand for these slightly older people have little meaning, here a little larger farmers and ranchers are more than one million assets, tens of millions are not a few, no wonder Montana has another name for the continent of wealth, there are too many rich peopleAlthough they don't have a lot of money to spare, it is not a problem for them to afford a famous brand. But they like something traditional. They don't emphasize any high-tech, in their opinion, the more handmade things are, the better, so that a lot of traditional crafts have been preserved, and even on the road you will often see cars that have been driven for decades still running on the road.

Marcos smiled when he heard Ju'an's words and said, "Look at this guy's horns, it's really beautiful, by the way, have you ever looked at that meadow again, and is there such a big deer?"

"I saw one yesterday, but it's a pity that this guy is too clever, hiding behind the bushes, and by the time I get around, there is no shadow left, and you're a big deer with about a dozen forks," Ju Antuo held the head of the deer in his hand.

"Everything is okay on the ranch now," Marcos asked casually with a smile.

Ju An nodded, and put the deer head in his hand on the table: "Everything is fine, it's just that yesterday a professor from the horse training center was interested in the grass in my pasture, and the training center wanted to use our grass instead of alfalfa grass to feed the horses in their center."

"If it is decided, then the price must be negotiated, don't be embarrassed to make a price just because you have horses in their center, business things are one thing, don't mix together, you Chinese sometimes pay too much attention to feelings, often prefer to lose points and care about face, this is very bad, here others will only think you are stupid" Marcos pointed to the ground, indicating that this is the place of the United States.

Ju An nodded after listening: "I know, I gave them a five-fold price yesterday!" ”。

Marcos listened for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I'm worried in vain, they also accept this price?" ”。

"Yes, I feed the cattle now, and I told them that there is not a lot of grass provided, and we will see when the time comes," Juan said.

Marcos nodded when he listened: "In terms of business, communicate with your lawyer more, even if you don't understand the matter, you have to ask the lawyer." Seeing Juan nodding, Marcos continued, "Come and see my specimen of spotted hyenas!" And antelope heads hunted in Africa! ”。 After speaking, he pointed to the specimen placed on the side of the desk.

Ju An saw that the spotted hyena was like a living one, squatting next to the desk, baring his teeth, his expression was still with a hint of a smile, very funny, but the neat snow-white teeth flashed with white light, Ju An walked over and looked at this African dick, and then touched the hair on its body, it was very rough, and it was very unsupple, no wonder no one wanted this fur, this guy could wear it to death.

Looking at this grinning guy with a funny expression, Ju An thought of the spotted hyena that this guy was affectionately called the second brother by fans in the forum. This guy has long front legs and short back legs, his body is a little tilted back, and his ears are big and round, and he said that this guy is best at monkey peach stealing kung fu, he likes to bite the crotch of big prey, bite out the intestines of the prey from the crotch, and then wait for the prey to die, and even the old and weak rhinoceros can be killed by a spotted hyena relying on the monkey to steal peaches. The second-highest person in the food chain in the African savannah doesn't even pay attention to the lioness except for the male lion who is naturally feared.

Follow Marcos behind carefully listen to the introduction of each of his collections, listen to him tell a story, every game here is Marcos personally hunted, a brown bear, a black bear, dozens of deer large and small, and then a few African antelopes, wildebeest, listen to him for a long time, from Marcos's proud look you can feel why these Americans in the western farms are so keen to hunt, they regard hunting as an outdoor sport, It's no wonder that many gun shops in the United States are called outdoor stores.

Marcos introduced his collection with great enthusiasm, and Ju An listened with relish on the side, when Dinah knocked on the door, then pushed the door in, and smiled at the two of them and said, "Dad, Ann, come out for lunch."

Hearing Dinah say this, Marcos looked at the following table, and then said to Ju An: "I'm sorry, Ann, you haven't been bored after listening to me for so long, right?" ”。

"I don't think it's funny, I like hunting myself, and it's nice to listen to your stories," Ju An said with a smile.

Marcos motioned for Ju An to follow him to the restaurant, and said: "In the past, when my three daughters were young, they were willing to listen to me talk about this, but when they are older, no one wants to listen to them, and today I am a little verbose."

Ju An laughed in his heart: Which girl is willing to listen to your mouth like a river about how to kill animals in blood, and then think about it, no wonder Dinah said that Marcos has always wanted a son, this old man does not have much common language with his daughter, and he inevitably feels lonely in his heart, if he doesn't pull himself to talk like this, endlessly.

It seems that the patriarchal concept of this foreigner also exists in the Americans, especially in these old cowboys in the west, it seems that a son watches his son grow up slowly, teaching him to hunt, playing baseball is another great joy in life, obviously the daughters can not fully satisfy them at this point, take Dinah as an example, when she was a child, she could also play soccer or something when she grew up, and she liked beautiful clothes, and obviously she didn't like this kind of sports rolling around in the mud.

Thinking of this, I somehow suddenly remembered the story of the Greek ship king Onassis, this old fellow after the death of the heir's only son, the grief was unbearable, and he was immersed in the grief of losing his son, as if he had followed his son a year later, and then all his property was left to his daughter. It turns out that some foreigners also have the concept of patriarchy, and it is not the same as Ju An thinks in China, giving birth to boys and girls is the same.
