As soon as he flattened his seat, he heard someone knock on his window, straightened up and saw Cannon smiling next to his window.

Sit up and press the window.

"It's all done?" Zhang Chi asked at Cannon.

Cannon nodded: "It's all sold, and now only the handover is left, what about you, how are you, did you see the right calf?" ”

Zhang Chi motioned for Cannon to get in the car, but Cannon waved his hand directly and continued to chat with Zhang Chi through the window.

"The calf saw it, but I don't know if I can buy it," Zhang Chi said.

After a turn in the morning, Zhang Chi saw some satisfied calves, but there were quite a lot of calves brought by the sellers, at least two or three hundred, Zhang Chi pondered that the competitiveness of his own pockets might not be enough.

"Buying cattle is a chance, sometimes you can buy good cattle for less money, and sometimes you can't get a good cow with money in your pocket, and it's a common habit to do this, mainly to visit these kinds of auctions," Cannon said with a smile.

"I think so too, shop more, buy some at the right price, and if the price is not suitable, you should come over and have a long experience," Zhang Chile said hehehe.

"I'm sorry about what happened last time, I have to work overtime on the temporary ranch," Cannon said of the last time he had an appointment for dinner.

Zhang Chi said: "It's okay, let's get together again when we find a time."

"I don't think there's time for that, and it's going to be two weeks away at the earliest," Cannon said.

"Oh, are you still so busy?"

Zhang Chi is a little strange, it stands to reason that the spring should not be busy at this time, because in winter, the cattle have to add material or something, there is no grass in the pasture, so the stored hay is fed to the cows, and the cowboy has to transport the hay or something to the cowshed, this thing may sound like nothing, but if there are five or six thousand cattle in your pasture, then this work is not light.

Feeding grass and shoveling cow dung, cowboys can hardly stop for a day.

Especially on the ranch where Cannon works, the main business is grazing cattle rather than captivity, and the cowboys have a lot of work.

"I'm busy breeding now, and our big boss is coming over in the next few days, so ......."

Speaking of which, Cannon flipped his hand, and that thought should be in our country, you know.

Surface kung fu is also very common here, when we are in China, we feel that when the leader comes, it is called a busy job in various places, what is cleaning the street, cleaning up and so on, I feel a bit fake. But here again, if the No. 1 boss comes to Folson, it is estimated that the mayor of Folsom can turn over the entire Folsen.

This is also the case in the ranch, generally speaking, the big boss rarely lives in the ranch, and the ranch manager takes care of it every day, so as soon as the big boss comes, the manager has to be stunned for a while, and the manager is stunned, so the cowboys under his command have to be busy.

I talked about this matter with Kanmin for more than half an hour, and Zhang Chi was also willing to listen to the affairs of such a big ranch, as if listening to a novel. It's new to Zhang Chi, how can a kid who used to deliver food know about the mess in the big ranch.

"It's almost time, you go in, the auction is about to start, I'll go back here, if I have time, I'll go to the auction to find you to help you see the calf" Cannon patted Zhang Chi's car window after speaking, turned his head and walked away.

Zhang Chi locked the car door and headed towards the auction venue.

When I arrived at the auction and found good guys, there were more people in the afternoon than in the morning, and I felt crowded, and when I came in in the morning, I could find a place at will, and now as long as it is a good place, it is occupied by people.

In the end, there are still many poor people in this world, and there are so many people who don't open in the afternoon.

I finally found a spot, but it was still in the corner, and the auctioneer couldn't see it if he didn't turn his head.

As soon as the butt sat in his seat, the auction began, and the auctioneer didn't talk so much nonsense, and after a sentence or two, he introduced the first batch of calves.

The first calves are breed cattle, but the body shape is not too good, and the calves that are too good will not be used as a warm-up shot at the beginning of the afternoon.

Before Zhang Chi could shout, someone had already offered more than the ceiling set by Zhang Chi's pocket.

Get! Let's watch it.

In the first two or three dials, Zhang Chi was not allowed to shout, and when it was time for the fourth dial, when ten Simmental cattle rushed into the center of the auction field, there was no part for Zhang Chi to speak.

Although these calves are not expensive, and the final transaction price is fair, Zhang Chi still can't afford to play.

After more than an hour, Zhang Chi finally waited for the usual cow to appear.

This time, Zhang Chi could shout a voice or two, but soon Zhang Chi's shouting price was overtaken.

However, soon Zhang Chi's luck came, a batch of twenty calves, the auctioneer shouted the reserve price, Zhang Chi thought that there were still people bidding, but after waiting for a while, he found that he did not want this batch of calves, so he raised his hand.

"Two hundred and ten, this gentleman sells two hundred and ten per head" The auctioneer saw Zhang Chi, a little excited, and shouted at the venue if anyone offered more than this price.

Zhang Chi didn't expect that there would be no one to bid.

The quality of these calves is average, and the overall level is also average, and the calves of three or four hundred pounds say okay, and that's it, if they say it's not good, it's okay.

This situation makes some experienced ranchers and economists a little hesitant, for whom such calves are too ordinary, and the reserve price is not low.

It's a bit of a chicken rib frame, bid by yourself, this price is a bit not cost-effective, so Ren auctioneer shouted for almost a minute, and no one covered the price that Zhang Chi shouted.

Zhang Chi didn't expect that he would auction this batch of calves, and when he heard the auctioneer's small hammer knock on the small wooden board on the table, Zhang Chi knew that his ranch had the first batch of calves.

The first batch of calves started, Zhang Chi felt that he was stunned all of a sudden, and his spirits were lifted and he was ready to continue to win these three or four batches.

But the ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, and then Zhang Chi will open his mouth.

At the end of the whole auction, Zhang Chi still had twenty calves in his hands, and there was no change at all.

Then the matter is simple, Zhang Chi went to swipe the card, the auction house prepared the information of the cow, the buyer and the seller signed, and waited for the money in Zhang Chi's bank to arrive in the account of the auction bank, then the transaction was officially completed.

With the auction house settlement documents, Zhang Chi went to the designated place to pull cattle.

At this time, Zhang Chi realized that the trailer he rented seemed to be a bit small, and it could only pull ten cows at most, but he could buy twenty of them.

The first time he bought a cow, Zhang Chi did this thing is really not a head, not a head, not a head, quite unforward-looking, a little underestimated for his behavior, if he was an old rancher, he would definitely not make such a mistake, how many cattle to buy before people came, it had already been planned, and the trailer with it must have a margin.

What about Zhang Chi? Renting a car and picking at it, just thinking about saving money, but now it's a bit silly to buy a cow. It was found that the trailer could not transport so many cattle.

As a livestock auction, it will definitely provide such and such services, but the people who Zhang Chi didn't consider were quite thoughtful, and the only trouble was that Zhang Chi had to pay for it.

This Qian Zhangchi really couldn't hide, so he had to find a passer-by and ask where to rent a car, and then rushed.

"Zhang Chi!"

Hurriedly went to the place, for fear that there would be no one over there to go late, and the cattle that were bought would be a little troublesome, who knew that he had not yet arrived at the place where he rented a car, and heard someone call himself.

When I followed the voice, I found that it was an acquaintance.

"Phil!"

The man who shouted Zhang Chi was a white man, about forty-five or sixteen, tall and strong as a peasant, wearing a gray long-brimmed baseball cap on his head, clothes and pants of the same color, and a pair of brown half-height boots on his feet.

Phil's daughter-in-law and Zhang Chi's aunt are friends, a strange woman who married from the Northeast to the United States.

Why do you say that strange women, this thing can be said, it is said that Ah, Phil, who was in his twenties at the time, met this Northeast girl, and thought that the girl was good, and she was very good-looking when she smiled, and she was an extremely gentle woman at first glance.

At that time, Phil was still relatively simple, and believed in the legend of Chinese girls in the society, what a gentle and lovely, obedient at home and so on.

This is like the opinion of our Chinese netizens on the Internet now, thinking that RB girls are the kind of soft-spoken and soft-spoken, and when they see them going home, they immediately bend down and say: You are back and something like that.

In fact, it's not like this at all, who lives like this all day long, and what age is it.

Having said that, Phil was also poisoned by the Internet, and felt that the American girl was a little too selfish, and it was difficult to grasp, but it was better to be an Oriental girl, with a soft body and good skin, and there was no hair on her body without hair removal from time to time, anyway, it was all kinds of good.

So he fell in love with the current Aunt Phil, and it felt good to meet the two of them, so the two got married smoothly.

This marriage, good guy, Aunt Phil's nature was exposed, and the two began to fight, don't look at Phil's tall and big horses, but Aunt Phil fought and was called a ruthless, stunned by her own 1.6-meter-6 little man, and retreated the 1.8-meter-8 Philgan.

After several defeats, Phil was honest in the end, Phil was not a strong character, but he was gradually trained by Aunt Phil to become a Chinese husband, and all the money earned by the family was handed over, and he had to apply in writing to buy a pack of cigarettes.

However, Aunt Phil is also a housekeeper, not only training her husband well, but also taking care of everything in the house.

Lao Mei, everyone knows that it is common to spend tomorrow's money today, but as soon as Aunt Phil took charge of the house, Phil found that the original family had saved money.

Just a few years ago, during the financial crisis, other families were crossing their fingers, and their family actually used the money they saved to expand their farm several times under the control of Aunt Phil.

Anyway, it is in response to the old saying: listen to your daughter-in-law and have food.

Seeing this, Zhang Chi smiled and asked, "You also came to buy cattle?" ”

Phil laughed, "Let's come and sell pigs".

Pointing to the side as he spoke, Zhang Chi found that Aunt Phil was talking to a few people, and saw Zhang Chi looking at his side, so he said a few words to the people next to him and walked to Zhang Chi.

"Da Chizi, I heard that you bought a ranch? I won't tell your aunt when I move to a new house," Aunt Phil asked cheerfully.

Zhang Chi said: "Auntie, don't make fun of me, my corner is still called a new home?" Besides, there is nothing in it, not even a place to stay, and for the time being, I will borrow my uncle's RV to live."

"I heard what your aunt said, but no matter how you say it, you still have a piece of land to settle down, as long as you work hard, this day will always get better, I think it wasn't just a small farm when I married this guy," Aunt Phil said with a smile.

Aunt Phil uses Chinese, Zhang Chi uses English, because Phil does not understand Chinese, if Zhang Chi uses Chinese, it seems that there is no politeness, the three of you stand here to chat, and stand next to one who does not understand at all, what is it called.
