Chapter 9 Gourd Ranch

9 gourd pastures

All kinds of officials, those who can type leave words, squeak, and book reviews are occupied by advertisements.

After talking to Herb, Chen Nan called Rachel, a private economic lawyer, and made an appointment to come over tomorrow.

On his way back to Uvalde, Beyat said, "South, this is really not a good choice, have you decided?" Do you still need to go to Shulunburg? Chen Nandao "No, that's it, I'm sure" "Okay! South"

Rachel arrived at noon the next day, studied the contract carefully with Herb's lawyer, and after nodding his head in agreement, Chen Nan signed his name on the contract, and standing on this land could finally sense the feeling of belonging to his own fiefdom. Chen Nan was not in a hurry to consciously enter the ground, because it would take another day for Herb to pack up and leave. In the afternoon, after everyone signed the papers, the champagne was opened, Chen Nan and Rachel went back to the town together, and Beate had left after signing the contract.

Knowing that Chan was going to live in Uvalde, Rachel decided to open a small law firm in the town.

This time, a total of 7.55 million was spent, and 50,000 was Beate's commission. Chen Nankari only has about 7 million, and he still needs to renovate the pasture, I don't know if it is enough.

The next day, Chen Nan came to the gourd ranch renamed (hulu), Herb had already loaded his luggage in the car, and it was his son who came to pick him up, and Chen Nan also met Herb's wife. They're going to live in San Antonio.

Chen Nan and Corrine moved their luggage into the cottage together.

Corian is an old cowboy on the ranch, who has worked on the ranch for 10 years, although the weekly salary is higher than 1,000 US dollars, but Chen Nan still kept him and raised it to 1,100 US dollars per week, which is very necessary.

There used to be five cowboys on the ranch, but there was only one left, and it was Core's daughter (Daisy) Daisy, who had been following Coren since she was a child and was a very good cowgirl. Chen Nan raised her weekly salary to 600 US dollars.

There is also Debra, Corion's wife (Debra), who usually takes care of the broiler chickens in the chicken pen, feeds a few sheepdogs, etc., and earns 500 US dollars a week.

The ranch's villa is located in the northeast corner, in the traditional American ranch style, rugged, sturdy, with two floors, a total of 8 rooms, four upstairs and four downstairs with study, kitchen, storage, and one master bedroom, two guest rooms, and the remaining two are empty! It should have been Herb who moved the things! Vacant.

After Chen Nan moved his luggage, he went to the street to make a big purchase, and after eating Western food for 10 days, Chen Nan wanted to eat Chinese food, although there are still many Asians in the town, but there are still Chinese seasonings in the supermarket, but the vegetables of Lao Mei are really expensive, it seems that they still have to grow their own! The price gap between beef is too big! I thought that the 1,000 cattle in the gourd ranch were very valuable, but now it seems that it is the lowest price, a few dollars a list.

Returning to the gourd ranch to cook a good meal, Chen Nan still thought the Chinese food was delicious.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Chen Nan couldn't wait to sink his consciousness into the ground and look for a water source, because he hadn't used his wish power for nearly 25 days or so, and his wish power was usually stored in his chest, and the speed of his consciousness moving underground was the same as running, which was not very fast, and he could only see the situation within 10 meters. I didn't go to bed until 12 o'clock. But Chen Nan was very strange and did not find an underground river.

Today is March 30th, although the temperature is not high, but the air is very dry, Chen Nan is patrolling the ranch alone, Chen Nan has not found any water in the ground for 3 consecutive days, so Chen Nan is not in a good mood, is it really wrong? Is it true that God does not care for him anymore?

Riding slowly on a docile horse is the riding technique taught by Corion these days, although it can only be ridden slowly now.

From a distance, I saw Corion and Daisy feeding the cattle on the edge of the cattle pen, these forages were bought in the market, the appetite of 1,000 cattle was not small, and there was no pasture in the pasture, these 1,000 cattle were basically cows and breeding cattle, and all the cattle that could be sold were sold. What is left is the breeding cattle is the Po Angus cattle.

Angus cattle are black hornless beef cattle. Known for many years as the Aberdeen Angus, it originated in the north-east of Scotland and is closely related to the curly-coated Galloway, sometimes referred to as the oldest breed in the UK. At the beginning of the 19th century, many breeders, including the famous Hugh Watson, improved the breed and fixed its current size. The appearance is characterized by black hornlessness, a short and strong body, good meat quality, and a high meat yield. The advantages are fast growth and development, early maturity, easy fattening, and easy breeding. The meat yield is high, and the quality is good. The 12-month-old slaughtered cattle have an eye muscle area of 32.5 square centimeters, and the meat is marble-shaped. Strong adaptability to the environment. Cold-resistant, disease-resistant, grain-fed; It has a mild temperament and no horns, which is convenient for grazing management.

Among them, the Bo Angus cattle are a branch of the Brahmin cattle and the Angus cattle, which are known for their resistance to heat.

In the 19th century, it began to be exported to all parts of the world, and most of the world's major cattle raising countries raise this breed of cattle, which is one of the main cattle breeds in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, New Zealand and Argentina. Angus cattle account for one-third of the total number of beef cattle in the United States.

Is a pasture still called a pasture if there are no cattle? Chen Nan can only continue to pay for this group of big stomach kings, and he still has to work hard to find a water source!

Seeing that Chen Nan came over to Crien and said, "poss, morning, oh! Your riding skills are much better, and you're going to be a good cowboy. ”

Daisy smiled and said, "Morning, Nan." After a few days of understanding, Chen Nan knew that Corian was a very traditional cowboy with rich experience, and there were many big ranches that had dug him after the ranch was defeated, and if he hadn't worked here for 10 years, he would have left early. Daisy is a quiet character, Chen Nan is the first time to know that there is a cowgirl, although Daisy is not very beautiful, but there is a heroic spirit.

After chatting with Crion for a while, he continued to patrol the ranch.

Before he knew it, Chen Nan was next to the woods in the northwest, and Chen Nan suddenly patted his head, stupid! Why do you want to start looking from the villa, there must be an underground river coming out of the forest!

But looking at the waste well next to him, he hesitated, could he have guessed wrong! Anyway, let's see what I'm saying.

Chen Nan bolted the horse to the tree next to him, leaned against the tree, and his consciousness entered the ground to see a funny picture, not far below the waste well is the rock layer, a rock layer more than 20 meters wide, and the consciousness bypassed the rock and found that under the rock was actually an underground river more than 10 meters wide, passing in the northwest corner of the pasture, and then flowing to the northeast, and more than 100 meters in the pasture was blocked by the rock, no wonder the pasture next to the ranch can still operate, but the reason why the gourd ranch is so dilapidated!

Fortunately, the original ranch rented Herb did not continue to drill wells, it seems that God still likes us!

It's easy to find water. Chen Nan hurriedly got on his horse and ran back, Chen Nan wanted to quickly contact the drilling company, Chen Nan wanted to take out the water from the underground river, "It's going to be sent, driving, it's going, ah, ah, stop, melon, baby, stop it, oh, God, damn it, huh" The galloping horse was tragic on Chen Nan, a moment of Chinese and a moment of English, tightly hugging the horse's neck, galloping in the direction of home.

On the way, when passing by the bullpen, Daisy looked at Chen Nan who was rushing by with a shocked face, and because she couldn't understand the question, she asked, "Corian, what is Nan doing?" "Oh!" Corian looked up and said lightly, "The boss should be practicing riding!" You know, the boss is passionate about horseback riding! Look, at this speed, he's already a good cowboy. Well, although the posture is not right. ”
