Chapter 157: Planting Grass

Coming back from Merika's ranch, Zhang Chi's mood was good and bad, the good was that he thought that he was going to make more money, and the bad thing was that he couldn't do Merica's little girl.

Thinking of avenging herself and blood hatred, she must have skinned her next time, and practiced martial arts on other people's videos for two days.

On the first day, I came up with a lot of energy, practiced for five or six hours, and almost lost my practice.

On the second day, I had a day off, and on the third day, I got better and continued to practice.

On the fourth day, Zhang Chi felt that he still had to convince people with virtue after all, besides, such a practice was really tiring.

So from the fifth day, Zhang Chi lay flat again.

On the sixth day, Merica came over with two fishes and asked Zhang Chi to make fish, and practiced Zhang Chi again, so Zhang Chi was ruthless again.

Then practice for three days, and then ...... He began to convince people with virtue again.

After a few days of convincing people back and forth, Brian's side was busy with things, and he came to the ranch to report with his belongings.

"Boss, I'm coming".

Brian stopped his broken pickup truck at the door with great interest, entered the house and shouted at Zhang Chi.

"Be quiet, we don't have that many people here," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Brian smiled and clenched his baseball cap.

"Sit!"

He gestured to the chair next to him and motioned for Brian to sit down.

Brian sat down, and Zhang Chi and Brian assigned the task here: "When you get there, you don't have to worry too much about other things, just stare at them and record how much hay they cut each time, how many bales of hay they get, don't let them take advantage of our ranch ......."

Brian nodded, "BOSS, I see."

"In addition, they may not be so friendly, you try not to conflict with them alone, it is you who will suffer when the time comes, let others take a look, remember not to let them cheat you."

"Don't worry, even if they take an extra piece of grass...... Grass stems, I'll remember that too," Brian said.

"That's it, the task is not too heavy, work, you can do it if you want, if you don't want to do it, don't worry about them, let's focus on collecting money here" Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Brian asked, "Boss, am I always there?" ”

Zhang Chi thought for a while: "No, you can also go home for two days when you usually have nothing to do, and see your wife and children or something." There is always a cycle of harvesting, and staying there in the middle is also dry."

Brian was a little embarrassed: "BOSS, I'm not married yet, I don't have a wife and children."

Zhang Chi didn't think it was strange, generally speaking, it is not too easy for this kind of casual cowboy to find a daughter-in-law, which is actually no different from China, it is always a little difficult for a poor baby to ask for a daughter-in-law.

"If you don't have a wife or children, you can give yourself two days off," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Brian didn't answer, just looked at Zhang Chi with a smile.

When the person arrived, the matter was also said, and Zhang Chi had to use the means here.

What means? Of course, it's money, what can buy people's hearts than giving money?

Could it be that you asked Zhang Chi to get a medal for everyone? Guan Jian just got it, unless this thing is hit in gold, otherwise let alone Brian, the Cannons won't recognize it.

When people's hearts are scattered, the team will not be easy to bring, and Zhang Chi's principle of leading the team is one: give money!

"This is your salary this month, as well as your settling-in allowance, a total of 1,700 yuan, save a little money, the next time you send money, it will be on the first or second of next month" Zhang Chi took out a small green roll from his pocket and handed it to Brian.

Brian is a little strange, because now he is paid after he works, and the first time he meets the boss, he is paid first.

"We're all like this, if you have any difficulties, you can also tell me" Zhang Chi smiled and looked amiable.

"Okay, Boss, I'm out," Brian said, taking the money.

"Go ahead," Zhang Chi waved his hand.

Out of the house, Brian drove to the side of the RV, stopped the car, and walked towards the cowshed.

When I got to the cowshed, I helped Cannon with his work.

"The boss gave me a month's salary, and a settling-in fee, hundreds of dollars," Brian said.

Cannon smiled and said: "There will be a lot of money in the future, the boss is not a stingy person, every time the ranch has income, he will give me a share, and you will definitely have it when the time comes, and it will be much easier to work here with peace of mind."

Brian nodded, he was a casual worker like Cannon, although he was an American, but he couldn't read a few big words, which was almost equal to illiteracy.

You may not know that the illiteracy rate in the United States is 14%, which means that 7 out of every 50 Americans are illiterate.

So Brian can't do anything other than do some odd jobs, it's not that he doesn't want to be a resident cowboy, but people don't look down on him, and almost all the resident cowboys have worked on a ranch for several generations, how can he have this way.

Cannon rolled up his sleeves and wore a chapter ranch coat of arms on his left shoulder.

Brian looked at the coat of arms with a look of envy: "The boss allows you to do this?" ”

Cannon didn't answer, he just said, "I'm going to work on the ranch until I can no longer shovel cow dung and then retire."

Brian envies, that's because it's a sign of the resident cowboy, which means that Cannon is the resident cowboy of the ranch, and his life and the ranch are closely linked.

And at the moment, Brian doesn't have a face branded with the mark of the ranch on his arm.

Now many people will say that branding on the body is something that cows and horses only do, but for cowboys, this mark is loyalty and honor.

Zhang Chi didn't know that Cannon had done this, if he knew, he would have said why bother, there was no need to engage in this kind of formalism. Of course, when he turned his head, he felt a good feeling in his heart.

For ranchers, it's a cowboy's endorsement of himself.

"Do a good job, our boss will definitely not be satisfied with the current ranch, it will definitely be expanded in the future, otherwise it will not let you go to the ranch over there, only by making money can you expand the ranch, if it weren't for me, the boss might have rented another ranch today" Cannon sighed a little.

"Well, I believe," Brian nodded.

The cowboys under his command have hope and confidence, if Zhang Chi knows it, he must feel that we are under great pressure!

The two of them cooed and cooed, and with Brian's help, the work was done very quickly today, and the work was done, so Cannon and Brian began to weave pimps again, these leather cloths were for the cows, and the cows in the pasture were going to give birth today, and they had to hang bells around their necks so that they could be easy to find, and of course the more modern method was to hang a locator around the neck of the cow.

But Cannon thinks that the old way has to be there, and the new equipment has to be used, and in case the electronics don't work, there is no old way.

Zhang Chi is even lazier now, he has nothing to do with ink, and he has nothing to do but ride a horse and turn around twice.

After spending a week on the ranch, Brian left for Colorado, and after a few days, it was said that the first 100 acres of ranch had been leveled and let Zhang Chi go.

The night before Zhang Chi was about to set off, he brought a few grasses into the gourd, planted the grass and watered the gourd, and in an instant the grass spread out a large area, and then the grass seeds hung all over the tips like rice.

Holding the cloth in hand, Zhang Chi was still ready to harvest, but as soon as his mind moved, these seeds went into the cloth bag, which saved Zhang Chi a lot of time.

Early the next morning, Zhang Chi drove his pickup truck to Colorado, and put a full hundred acres of grass seeds in the back compartment, almost two tons in weight, if it weren't for the gourd, Zhang Chi estimated that an agricultural checkpoint would have taken some time.

The car drove into the ranch.

Aside from Brian, only Langdon came to pick him up, and Erik, who was really in charge of the entire ranch, was not there.

Zhang Chi didn't care about this, just asked Langdon to take the seeds off the pickup, and then prepare to plant them.

Langdon's side was also fully prepared, although he didn't look down on Zhang Chi either, but Merika was determined to do what they were going to do, and they had to do it.

Eric is not without a little calculation here, first open a hundred acres, if the seeds brought by Zhang Chi, a liar, are not good, then even if there is damage, it is within a controllable range, more than 4,000 acres and 100 acres who are bigger and who is small, a person with brains can see it.

Everyone doesn't talk nonsense, and the seeds start planting when they arrive.

A farm like this can't be artificial, fully mechanized, and the machinery here is much richer than that of Zhangchi Ranch, so to speak, the machines here add up to buy two or three ranches the size of Zhangchi.

I have to say that the agricultural machinery in the United States is really expensive, and it is hundreds of thousands of dollars at every turn, which is really a bit unbearable for small ranchers.

Zhang Chi rode on his horse and watched the cowboys drive the seeders to sow the seeds.

Next to him is Brian, who is also on a horse.

There were only two people left, and Zhang Chi asked, "How are you doing here?" ”

Brian smiled wryly, "No one here wants to talk to me."

Zhang Chi smiled when he heard this, stretched out his hand and patted Brien gently: "When our grass grows, they will talk to you."

"I don't care" Brian didn't care what the cowboys here thought, he came with one mind: watch the money on the ranch, don't let these people take advantage of it.

Once the field is sown, the next step is to sprinkle the water.

At this time, Zhang Chi rode to the side of the large water storage tank, dismounted and climbed up the escalator.

Langdon, who was directing on the side, saw it and walked over.

"George, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Chi said in his heart: What are you doing, if you don't add a little gourd pulp to it, you think that just this water can make the seeds of the big mustache grass germinate?

I think so, but I can't say that.

"How about the water?"

Saying that, Zhang Chi put his hand into the jar and stirred it, and took the opportunity to command the gourd to pour a little gourd pulp into it.

The gourd syrup instantly dispersed when it encountered the water, and when I looked closely, I felt that this jar of water seemed to be different, a little slightly sparkling.

Climbing down from the water tank, Zhang Chi said: "The water quality is okay."

Langdon didn't speak, he just felt in his heart now that Zhang Chi, an Asian, was posturing.

"Simon, start sprinkling".

"Don't have too much" Zhang Chi hurriedly said: "If you spill too many seeds, it will rot."

Langdon listened and said, "Do as George says."

Simon was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean more?" ”

"You sprinkled it, I'll take a look," Zhang Chi said.

As soon as the water sprayed, Zhang Chi said: "If there is less, there will be eighty percent of the amount."

Simon tweaked it, and Zhang Chi gave it a thumbs up.

The whole process is quite smooth, everyone is an old cowboy, where to use Zhang Chi to teach more grass planting.
