The eight-sided Blue Emperor Sublimation Talisman consumed the vitality accumulated in Zhang Cheng's body for more than 20 days, but this Blue Emperor Sublimation Talisman can be said to be almost once and for all, and Zhang Cheng also thought about it repeatedly before he dared to complete the most difficult production of the talisman - Nevada At this time of April, the weather began to get hotter, which also means that the vines are about to bear fruit.

After making the eight-sided jade talisman, Zhang Cheng went to the vineyard alone this time, and buried the eight-sided jade talisman into the vineyard according to the innate gossip direction of Tianze Fire Thunder Feng Shui Mountain.

After the jade talisman on the last side of the sword was buried, Zhang Cheng lucked his anger in his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a trace of cyan anger wandering in the air ready to escape being forcibly pulled into the ground by an invisible hand. Zhang Chengxin said that it was fortunate that he avoided the location of the villa when he was buried, otherwise he really couldn't cultivate in this formation.

Because of the need for the formation to be in the right position, about ninety-five percent of the vines in the entire vineyard are in this Qingdi sublimation array, accounting for the vast majority of the vineyard, which is enough.

After dealing with all this, the morning has passed, Zhang Cheng drove the electric car in the direction of the villa unhurriedly, because the speed of the car was blowing away the hot early summer in Nevada, and after driving for a while, Zhang Cheng also understood why some people like to drive out of the car to go for a ride - at least it can cool off.

Because of the relationship between immigrating to the United States, Zhang Cheng read more news and news related to the United States, and after reading more, he realized that the United States is not all good - at least the moon is not rounder.

Montana and other continents in the north are prone to blizzards in winter - ranchers are unlucky, cattle and sheep will freeze to death in large numbers, and coastal areas may encounter typhoons in summer, but don't think that the central region of the United States is fine, there are frequent tornado disasters - almost every family has to dig cellars to prevent tornadoes (Zhang Cheng also vaguely remembers a cartoon of an American girl who was blown to the other world by a tornado).

Nevada, for example, has little but drought and high summer temperatures, and Wassho County, which was exploited as land developed in the Westward Expansion Movement a long time ago, is not a water-scarce area with enough rivers and groundwater to irrigate agriculture and pasture, nor is it in the middle of a Las Vegas desert where the climate is similar to that of neighboring California — or not for its vineyards.

Back at the villa, Zhang Cheng met Jenny who came to look for food in the kitchen, but it was obvious that Jenny had nothing to gain - there was some flour and rice in the kitchen, as well as some eggs, vegetables, milk and bread, but in addition to bread and omelette Jenny really couldn't make anything else, three meals a day of toast, omelette and milk, and those 'gray livestock' in Russia couldn't stand it, let alone the Americans.

"Wang, master, we should go shopping. Master, Wang. ”

"Hey, please don't add mood particles casually, it's easy to cause misunderstandings." Zhang Cheng looked at the refrigerator: "Jenny, you don't know how to cook?" I can still steam rice. ”

"It's the Jenny, Wang." Jenny casually added strange explanations and tone particles: "Wang, I'm driving, let's at least go to the city and buy some beef to make steak." Woof. There is also no salad dressing in the refrigerator at home, Wang. ”

"Okay." Zhang Cheng can't help it, in Zhang Cheng's opinion, his mother's work of making some dishes delicious is more magical than magic - you see Harry Potter, aren't these British wizards still eating British dark food.

Jenny's car is a new small displacement Chevrolet that can be bought for less than a week, and it is very cheap in the United States for thousands of dollars, and Jenny bought the car with an installment loan after finding a new job, and paid a week's salary advance - the previous car was naturally thrown into the second-hand market by Jenny, but because the cost of second-hand car insurance and repair is too high, it will be sold for a few hundred dollars, of course, the second-hand car when Jenny bought it was not expensive.

Now in the whole estate, Jenny's governess salary is the highest, $1,000 a week, but the foreign language governess is a short-term job, in fact, the income is not as stable as the winemaker Johnson Johnson 800 dollars a week, and the wages of the other 20 or so winery workers range from $450 to $750 a week.

This is a weekly salary, not to mention the high cost of labor in the United States, this is still the rural Nevada, to New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and other big cities, the salary level will be several times.

Zhang Cheng went to the room to find the green card and bank card and brought them out, and met Jenny, a who drove a brand new red Chevrolet from the garage. (Ah, it looks like something strange has gotten in)

Zhang Cheng got into the car Jenny helped Zhang Cheng fasten his seat belt, Jenny said while driving: "You should find a car to drive, this is the United States, the kingdom of cars, and in the United States, your driver's license is your second green card." Well, it might be a good idea to get a driver's license first. ”

There is a long way to go in the matter of the exam, and Zhang Cheng can do it before he goes to school - now he can't understand what the coach said is not, Zhang Cheng asked another thing: "The security in the city is okay." ”

Jenny casually turned on the country music while driving and said: "Reno, the most famous small city in the United States, before the rise of Las Vegas, was also the economic center of Nevada, as a casino city in order to attract gamblers from all over the world, there are many activities, such as car shows, striptease shows, opera, striptease shows, bars, striptease shows, magic, striptease shows, gem shows, striptease shows, ......"

"Hey, don't put anything weird in there, I know there's a striptease show there. OK？ Zhang Cheng cautiously asked: "I heard that you can buy guns here, what procedures do you need?" ”

"Simple, the police department has no recent record of violent crime, and the hospital has no record of mental illness. However, you can only buy a long gun at the age of eighteen, and a pistol at the age of 21? ”

A spear is simpler than a pistol, what's going on, and soon Zhang Cheng also figured it out, although the spear is more powerful, it will definitely be worn in the open, and who knows what the pistol is in his pocket? That's the danger.

"This is my gun, which I bought last year for self-defense." As she spoke, Jenny opened a box in the car, which contained a silvery-white shiny revolver.

Zhang Cheng just wanted to get started, but his hand was knocked off by Jenny in mid-air, Jenny said: "Don't mess with my baby, when you get to Reno, if you want to buy it, you can buy a long gun first, and if you want a pistol, you can play there." And not much. ”

There were no cars on the road, and after driving for more than fifty minutes and nearly an hour, Zhang Cheng and Jenny arrived at Reno City. He said he was here to buy beef to make steak, but the two of them were hungry on the way, so when they arrived in Reno, they first found a restaurant and sat down and ordered two steaks.

Naturally, there is also an aperitif (Zhang Cheng can drink alcohol at the age of eighteen), a vegetable salad and a section of boiled corn - meat and vegetarian pairing.

After eating here and laying a little foundation for the stomach, Zhang Chengcai and Jenny went to the supermarket. Of course, the two of them came to the beef first, and the meal of more than 100 dollars just now was not bad.

After taking a look at the price here, Zhang Cheng found that the beef here is more expensive than the thief, and the cheaper one is lower than that in China: "Why is it so bad?" ”

Jenny held two different pieces of vacuum-packed beef and said, "It's all graded beef. Ordinary beef is fattened for poor people like me, and the beef pasture for fattening is also very cheap. It's expensive for the rich, and they don't care about the money.

California also produces the best Wagyu beef, which is the kind that takes a bath and massages and drinks beer every day. Grade 1 premium beef costs four to five hundred dollars a pound and is only sent to high-end restaurants. The most expensive steak here is the 2nd grade premium steak and the 3rd grade optional steak, and the cheapest is this 4th standard grade beef. It's easy to tell from the fat pattern that lower-grade beef is used for canning and other purposes, such as luncheon meat. ”

Zhang Cheng found a question: "So, the cheapest beef used to make canned food is used?" ”

Jenny found a few canned meat: "Don't you understand the price of canned meat?"

Zhang Cheng looked at the price above, and the price of standard-grade beef: "It's really cheap." But it's cheap and not good. Never eat canned food again, and luncheon meat. ”

Zhang Cheng picked dozens of pounds of specially selected steak and dozens of pounds of optional beef, Jenny was terrified to see it, these specially selected optional steak beef is not cheap, the two piles add up to thousands of dollars, Jenny can't help but think of a saying that has been circulating in the United States in recent years: "Chinese are really rich." ”
