Chapter 158: Former and Backward
Everything was quite satisfied, Zhang Chi asked Brian to pay attention not to let Langdon and them water too much, and he went back to the temporary dormitory to rest.
In less than an hour, Zhang Chi appeared on the pasture again and stepped on an extra horse, riding on the horse, Zhang Chi saw that the cowboys had planted a large patch.
"It's nine to ten feet apart, and the grass will soon be overflowing, so there's no need to plant it," Zhang Chi said to Langdon.
Langdon nodded, and then called the cowboy and said that there should be a distance of three meters between the blocks, and the cowboy didn't ask, and after listening to it, he left the distance as requested.
Turning his head to look away, as far as the eye could see, several tractors were plowing the field, some were hanging gas canisters, scorching the earth with blue flames, and killing the original alfalfa in the field with other plants with the heat.
All the cowboys in the entire ranch moved, and it was a hot scene.
But Zhang Chi knew that most of these people might be cursing themselves in their hearts, the reason was very simple, it didn't need to be so effortless, but in his own words, all the alfalfa here were being shoveled and planted with the big beard grass they didn't know. If you are in the same position, you may be even worse than they scold.
Does Zhang Chi care?
I don't care if I want to, these cowboys are the cowboys of Merika Ranch after all, not his Zhangchi Ranch.
Looking at the endless pastures and the cowboys working on it, Zhang Chi couldn't help but sigh.
"What a good ranch, it's a pity, it's a pity."
Zhang Chi thinks this ranch is very good, but the only pity is that such a ranch is not his own.
Thinking that the ranch was not his own, Zhang Chi began to ponder blindly, thinking about whether he could hack this ranch.
But after thinking about it, it seems a little impossible for me to pick my teeth from the tiger of the little girl's skin.
"Forget it, after all, we are friends, we have always been good young people with a conscience, we can't do this kind of thing" pondered for a while, feeling that he was thinking about it, so Zhang Chi comforted himself.
"What's more, this time the little girl skin can be regarded as having a conscience and giving me fifty percent of the benefits" Zhang Chi was happy when he thought of this.
Don't look at Zhang Chi at the beginning, but he also knew in his heart that this was impossible, not to mention Merica's shrewd little girl, and it was impossible for him to agree to it.
Why?
If you were to change it, would you be willing to take your own land out to do business with others, and then only take two or three percent? It's impossible for a fool to do, let alone someone as shrewd as Merica.
Even if it was given fifty percent, Zhang Chi actually didn't expect it.
If you think about such a large piece of land, to change the grass, to water, etc., you must need people and mobile phones, and these all cost money, don't look at the hundreds of thousands in Zhang Chi's hand, it seems to be a lot, but it is nothing sprinkled on this pasture of Merica, an area of more than 4,000 acres, more than 20,000 acres of land in China, and more than 2 million yuan, do you think it is a thing?
What's more, Merica will solve the problem of cattle at that time, which is another big expense, don't ask Merica if she will transport the calves eliminated from the family ranch, cows are cows!
If Zhang Chi didn't have the ability to raise and eliminate calves, Merica would have lost her mind and gone crazy, taking the land to get cattle and doing this business with Zhang Chi, and she would also give half of the net profit to Zhang Chi.
Although Merika made more money than before, but when it was really put outside, few businessmen were willing to share the account with Zhang Chi, because on the surface, this was obviously unequal, Merika's family paid more costs, and Zhang Chi's side paid less costs.
Therefore, in this cooperation, Zhang Chi is not obvious on the surface, but he is still a little moved by Merica in his heart, of course, there are small touches, but it is difficult to say how much.
The cowboys in the ranch didn't want to deal with Zhang Chi too much, of course, there was Brian, but Brian didn't talk much, and he didn't care, and Zhang Chi couldn't care anymore, he was now full of money.
After the first batch of 100 acres of land was planted and almost watered, Zhang Chi left here and returned to his pasture.
When I came back again, I brought another batch of grass seeds.
On average, nearly 30 catties of grass seeds are needed for one acre of land, and more than 4,000 acres of land require a lot of seeds.
After transporting all the seeds, Zhang Chi directly threw the seeds into the warehouse here, and the rest of the matter was to wait for the cowboys to water it, and then add gourd pulp himself.
Therefore, every time he waters, Zhang Chi will 'check' the water source.
Zhang Chi doesn't live here much, the cowboys don't like him, and Merica doesn't have any special instructions, so if Eric can arrange for Zhang Chi to enter the big standard room, then it will be a ghost.
So Zhang Chi was in the same room with Brian here, and the two of them didn't care when they arrived, and they were quite happy to live.
Eric got up early in the morning, washed up, stood in front of the mirror and carefully trimmed his beard, most of the old cowboys like to grow beards, and especially care about their own beards, this degree of concern even exceeds the pursuit of personal hygiene, as if he has a unique beard on his face, and can eat two more bowls for dinner.
"Eric! Eric! ”
Just as Eric was grooming his beard, there was an urgent knock at the door.
Eric put down the small scissors in his hand, came to the door and opened the door, and said to the cowboy in the door, "What is so impatient?" ”
"Sprouted, sprouted!"
Cowboy said to Eric with a look of surprise.
Eric didn't quite understand, so he opened his mouth and asked, "What sprouted?" ”
"Grass, the grass we just planted has sprouted," the cowboy said happily to Eric.
"Sprouted?" Eric suddenly understood, and immediately rushed to the cowboy in front of the door to make sure.
The cowboy nodded: "Well, it's already coming out of the ground, the buds are so tall, they have grown so tall overnight".
As he spoke, the cowboy gestured with his hand.
At this time, Eric was still in the mood to take care of his little beautiful beard, and immediately went out: "Let's go, go and see!" ”
The two of them left Eric's dormitory one after the other and went straight to the ranch.
There were already five or six cowboys on the nearest pasture, and everyone was standing on the edge of the ground, looking at the seedlings that had just sprouted on the ground with a look of surprise.
Eric came to the side of these people, crouched down and looked at the young seedlings that had just emerged on the ground, his face full of joy.
"It sprouted so quickly," Eric thought was a little unbelievable.
"Is the temperature warming up fast?"
A cowboy replied, "No, there are no buds in other farms now, so we've only been planting them for a few days?" ”
The small seedlings in the ground are yellow-green, and at a glance, you can see that they have just emerged from the ground, and they have not really turned emerald green, which proves that the cowboys said that these little grass sprouts have grown into their current appearance soon after emerging from the ground.
In other words, these small grass sprouts have proved that Zhang Chi is not a liar, and the new grass he provides does grow much faster than the original alfalfa.
"It's like this in this piece?" Eric asked again.
"It's all like that, the grass seedlings are almost all just as tall," replied one cowboy.
"Let's go, let's see".
Although Eric believes that his cowboy can't lie, he has to see it for himself to be reassured.
So Eric began to measure the first planted field with his own feet, and as the cowboy said, all the grass in this field was just like what he had just seen.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
"What about our original alfalfa? Did it sprout? Eric asked again.
The cowboys shook their heads.
Eric rode on his horse and looked at it, but instead of the faint greenery that had been drilled out of the earth, he saw a barren land, and there was no green at all on the original ground.
The whole ranch suddenly became lively, and the cowboys, who were originally all indifferent or even dissatisfied, changed their expressions one by one to smile.
Zhang Chi had just gotten up at this time, he had only arrived here last night, so he got up a little late today, and when he got up, he heard the mess outside.
After doing a good job of personal hygiene, Zhang Chi pushed open the door and prepared to go out, and met Brian with a smile on his face on the aisle.
"What are you so happy about picking up a nugget?" Zhang Chi and Brian joked.
Brian laughed, "No, no, it's the grass that was planted that sprouted."
"What's there to be happy about?" Zhang Chi was a little speechless, didn't he say this a long time ago, how could a group of people still be so happy.
Bah! It's really uninsightful.
Brian said: "They don't believe it, they always thought we were liars, if it wasn't for Miss Merica's consent, maybe we would all be killed by these people here."
"Killed? Who do they think they are? Zhang Chi pouted and said disdainfully.
Brian laughed a few times.
"Let's go, let's take a look" Zhang Chi waved his hand and took Brian outside.
Just got on the way.
"Good morning, Mr. George"
"Good morning, Mr. George".
In the past, there was no cowboy who liked to take care of Zhang Chi, but now as long as they see Zhang Chi, they start to say hello from ten meters away.
Belch!
Is it so realistic?
Zhang Chi and these people exchanged good mornings, and then muttered in their hearts.
The cowboys are nothing, Zhang Chi met Eric who had just come back from the field, the old guy who originally had a dead face, and now saw that the wrinkles on Zhang Chi's face were unfolding in an instant.
"George! You look so good today."
Zhang Chi smiled and said, "You're not bad."
But he said in his heart: Yes, your uncle, Lao Tzu has been here a few times, you old boy appeared for the first time today, I can't see you when the grass doesn't grow, and now the grass is rising, and your old boy is also rising, what? You're green too, huh?
"I didn't expect the grass to sprout," Eric said happily.
Zhang Chi said: "Where is this, it will soon enter the rapid growth period, and you should hurry up and plant the rest of the land, I don't have time to spend more here."
Eric laughs: "We try to complete the rest of the planting plan as soon as possible, no, we will work overtime from today".
Looking at Eric, Zhang Chi said in his heart: These people really don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, it's very realistic!
