Chapter 19: Departure
After eating lunch in a hurry, Zhang Chi made a little mistake, rode up Chiyan Mountain and continued to chase the calf, the calf naturally could not stop, so one person and one horse chased, a group of calves ran around, and the whole ranch was either neighing or mooing of cows, and it was not lively for a while.
Chased until the sun drooped, Zhang Chi stopped, it didn't work if he didn't stop, the calf didn't have much strength, but the corners of Chiyanshan's mouth also brought Mo'er, and Zhang Chi couldn't bear it himself, for a few hours on horseback, the inner thighs were grinding hot pain from the saddle.
It is estimated that it will not be burned today, Zhang Chi picked up the dry refrigerator and prepared to go back to the RV.
Hey!
As soon as his hand touched the box, Zhang Chi found that the box was so light, and when he stretched out his head to look, he found that there was his soldering iron in the dry refrigerator, and all the dry ice in the original box had volatilized.
"This ...... Grandma drips! Dozens of dollars are over again."
Zhang Chi was a little sorry for his box of dry ice.
Returned to the side of the RV, threw the dry refrigerator on the ground, and then took Chiyan Mountain, one person and one horse to the side of the creek and began to take a bath.
After taking a bath, Zhang Chi returned to sit on the small bench and looked at the small calves grazing in the distance, and suddenly a thought popped up in his mind: Could it be that he made a mistake?
Thinking like this, Zhang Chi took out his notebook and searched the Internet for how to brand the calf.
The good guys came out with thousands of pieces at once, not only text but also videos.
Illiterate, how can anyone be willing to read text, so Zhang Chi clicked on the video for the first time.
"I'm a pig!"
After watching the video for a while, Zhang Chi knew that no one branded the calf like himself, not only the problem of branding, but also the fact that his own cow was too small and his body developed quickly, so at this time, even if he was branded, as soon as the cow's body grew, the brand would be pasted.
Generally speaking, cowboys brand cattle after the cow grows up, and the cattle that want to stay in the pasture are branded, and if it is a cow that is ready to be sold, it usually does not take much effort.
Also, when people brand the cow, there will be something like a bar, which is like two wooden pens, just enough to enter a cow in the middle, and when the cow enters, the front and back doors are closed, then the cow is honestly trapped in the wooden pen, so that the cow can't move, and the cowboy can brand the cow.
"I really have knowledge in everything."
I feel like I've been stupid for a day, and it turns out that people don't play like this.
After flipping through the things on the Internet for a while, Zhang Chi couldn't help but sigh: "There is really everything on the Internet now!" ”
Why do you sigh so much, because Zhang Chi turned to a cowboy blog, on which hundreds of episodes of videos have been published, the theme is to teach you how to be a real cowboy.
Now this is the one that Zhang Chi lacks!
So I slapped my thigh and began to learn from the video, watching it from the first episode!
The first episode is to tie the knot, originally Zhang Chi felt that it was difficult to tie a knot, but it turned out that tying a knot was not as simple as he thought, there are several kinds of knots commonly used by cowboys, there are bolted horses, there are bolted cows, the two are not the same, the bolted horse should be easy to untie, reach out and pull it open, the bolt cow is mainly to prevent the cow from breaking free, so after the knot is tied, the more the cow earns the knot, the tighter it is, and it will not be difficult to untie.
casually found a small rope, and Zhang Chi followed the video.
Zhang Chi is a person with perseverance, if he can't do it once, he will do it twice, and if he can't do it twice, he will do it three times, in short, until he does it well.
Fortunately, the most important thing Zhang Chi lacks now is time, and he doesn't need to take care of more than 20 calves in the pasture, as long as these calves have no problem with their IQ, they know how to eat grass when they are hungry, and they know how to go to the river to drink water when they are thirsty.
Zhang Chi, who was immersed in an online cowboy course, received a call from his businessman, that is, his cousin Zhang Wu, on the third day, informing him that Los Angeles had asked him to go over to shoot commercials.
There's nothing to say about this, people pay for it, it's the uncle, go and go, anyway, it's a knife to stretch out and shrink your head, for the sake of the ticket, how can you recruit if you are not happy. You have to accept your fate if you are poor!
Early the next morning, Zhang Chi drove to Uncle Folson's restaurant.
As soon as I got out of the car, I saw my cousin Zhang Wu jump out of the restaurant, and said to Zhang Chi while running: "Go, go!" ”
"What are you going to go, I haven't said anything to my aunt yet, if you want to go, you go first."
Zhang Chi said angrily.
Zhang Wu suddenly lost his temper when he heard this, and muttered, "Aren't you looking for trouble?"
Zhang Chicai didn't care about him, he didn't go in and say a few words to the eldest uncle and aunt when he arrived at the door, is that still a person!
So Zhang Chi pushed open the door of the restaurant.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the uncle and the aunt were busy working, and a table full of various small lunch boxes was placed.
"Uncle, uncle, what are you two doing here, who ordered so many things?" Zhang Chi didn't react for a while.
Uncle Niang smiled and said: "Who is it, aren't you going to Los Angeles, Uncle Ling and I have prepared some things, which are your eldest brother's favorite food, and you two just brought them over."
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Chi understood, so he smiled and said, "No problem, do you want me to help?" ”
With that, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to help.
Uncle said: "No, no, it's all ready, just put it in the box right away, these things have to be checked, don't take them directly on the plane."
"I know" Zhang Chi saw the uncle say this, so he stood aside and waited to help the uncle and his aunt put these things into the box.
The old couple was very nimble, and after a while, they put a table of large and small boxes into the bag, and did not let Zhang Chi reach out, the old couple put the bag in the back compartment of Zhang Chi's car.
"It's not early, Xiao Chi, hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to catch the plane" Zhang Wu had already sat in the carriage, a little impatient to escape from Folsen.
"Uncle, uncle, then let's go" Zhang Chi said goodbye to the uncle.
"Be careful on the road, by the way, when will you be back?" Uncle asked.
Zhang Chi said: "It's just over a day, I went today, and I'll be back tomorrow, at the latest, the day after tomorrow, it's to take a few photos, and then take a small advertisement."
"Oh, then come back early, and you, come back quickly if you're fine, don't hang around outside, Los Angeles thieves are not safe, don't encounter anything at that time" Uncle Niang said.
For Bo Niang, the big cities of the United States are the same as those of Afghanistan before, and it is not exciting to be exposed to the rain of bullets all day long, and it is not as safe as Folsom at all.
Zhang Chi could only nod and listen, this kind of thing is not very common people can touch, the news is a small probability event, what often happens is still called news?
As for what to do? That can only say that you are unlucky, what else can you say. If you have a gun, you will shoot back, if you don't have a gun, you will run away, and if you can't run away, you will fight hard, there is nothing to say.
Of course, if Zhang Chi encounters it, if any gunner has a gunman who dares to appear in front of him, then the one who dies is the gunman, and the gourd can't kill him, Zhang Chi changed his surname to the gunman, since he got the gourd, Zhang Chi's little guts are indeed a lot fatter.
"Mom, don't say a word, this chatter, the two of us are not going to die, we will be back in two days" Zhang Wu urged.
So Zhang Chi got into the car, as soon as the door closed, he waved to his aunt and uncle who hadn't come yet, and the car jumped out.
"I said what are you anxious about".
Zhang Chi was kicked by his cousin's accelerator and almost hit the front windshield.
"Why don't you be in a hurry, you have to haul or something when you get to the airport, I don't know what my parents think, how much can my brother eat, bring so much at once, it is estimated that most of them have to be thrown ......away."
"Thirty-year-old, do you have a snack too?"
Zhang Chi couldn't listen to it anymore, is the thing that the uncle and aunt brought to the eldest brother just something, that is the child's mind, and besides, they don't often go to Los Angeles, so what's the problem with occasionally going to pick up something?
"Okay, I won't tell you" Zhang Wu also felt that what he was complaining about was a little wrong.
But after a while, he didn't hold back, and opened his mouth and said, "They just hurt big brother!" ”
Zhang Chi listened and said: "Are you sorry to say this, how much care has the eldest brother made the uncle and the aunt so far, how much have you let the uncle and the aunt?" When you say this, you are not afraid that a bolt of lightning will kill you."
Zhang Chi is really unhappy now, the uncle and the aunt have spent too much thought on the second brother, because the eldest brother Zhang Wen's family doesn't have to worry about the two of them, when it is time to go to college, the status of the famous brand is equivalent to our domestic Qingbei, the Ivy League school, which is an excellent graduate when he graduated, and he was assigned to a top hospital in Los Angeles, what do you say the old couple can worry about.
But Zhang Wu is different, that guy has grown up all the way to shit, and the old couple followed him to wipe his buttocks, and he hasn't finished wiping it until now.
"Forget it, I'm just a nonsense, when will you become a big brother" Zhang Wu is actually not complaining about his parents, he just owes it sometimes.
The two brothers talked like this for a while and arrived at the airport.
First, the luggage was hauled, and then it took less than ten minutes to start boarding.
As soon as he entered the plane, Zhang Wuhe grabbed Zhang Chi: "Why are you going?" ”
"Find a seat" Zhang Chi was a little confused.
Zhang Wu said: "Find a fart seat, our seat is here."
"Good guys, business class?" Zhang Chi said with a smile.
"That's not it! Let's go to shoot advertisements now, not to brush small advertisements on the roadside" Zhang Wu was a little proud.
Business class is just a bigger economy class for Zhang Chi, the chair is bigger, and the rest is like that, as for the first class, Zhang Chi has never been there, and there are probably no planes taking off from a small airport like Folsen.
Today's plane is normal, unlike the full trip when Zhang Chi came back, the seat rate of this plane today is only half, and everyone can sit comfortably.
This made Zhang Chi feel that sitting in this business class was the same as not sitting.
When I arrived in Los Angeles, Merica didn't pick up the airport, so the brothers took a taxi by themselves.
I haven't taken out my phone yet, and the phone is ringing.
As soon as Zhang Wu picked it up, he said, "Brother, when we arrived, we were ready to take a taxi at the door."
"What kind of taxi, my parents told me that you two are coming, I guess it's almost time to arrive, which exit I'll go over."
After saying a few words, Zhang Wu hung up the phone: "Brother is here to pick us up."
"Hmm!"
So the two of them dragged their luggage and waited at the door, and after a while, they saw a black old sports car driving towards this side.
"Is that big brother?"
Zhang Wu saw the Asian man sitting in the sports car with sharp eyes and asked.
