Chapter 443: Rough Craft
Zhang Chi squatted, Xiao Xiao just sat on the ground, sharing the delicious food with his friends.
Zhang Chi ate the buns and kept nodding, I have to say that the buns made by his wife are really delicious. In fact, Zhang Chi also knows that this bun is not about how high the skill is, but mainly because this bun was made by his mother, and it was the taste of his childhood.
"Are the buns delicious?"
While eating steamed buns, Zhang Chi asked Xiao Xiao that he wanted to know if his little nephew had the same feelings as himself.
Xiao Xiao snorted, took a big bite of the bun and swallowed it, and then said to Zhang Chi: "It's delicious, it's much better than my mother's cooking, my mother and I don't like to eat it, I'd rather go out to buy steamed buns to eat."
It's still my grandmother's steamed buns that are delicious, I used to like Wagyu beef and green onions, but now I don't want to eat them too much, and the pork and cabbage seem to be more delicious.
Uncle, is your cabbage sugary, how sweet and silky".
Zhang Chi knew that the little guy had eaten too much beef during this time, frying, steaming, boiling, roasting and stewing, there was a dish of beef in every meal, and no matter how delicious it was, he had to be greasy to eat.
Stretched out his hand and touched Xiao Xiao's head: "You, you have eaten too much beef, and you don't want to eat it."
Xiao Xiao blinked his eyes when he heard this, and then focused on his bun again.
was eating steamed buns, when suddenly the kitchen door was opened, and Li Xiumei, who was wearing plaid flower pajamas, came in.
"Hey, how did you eat in the middle of the night, hungry?" Li Xiumei saw that her son and grandson were stuffed with buns in their mouths, and asked with a smile.
Zhang Chi stretched out his hand and pointed at Xiao Xiao: "I'm here to arrest him."
"Grandma, I want to eat your steamed buns."
Xiao Xiao's mouth is really sweet.
Li Xiumei listened and said: "Just eat steamed buns, wait a minute, I'll cook some soup for you, how to eat steamed buns......
Zhang Chi saw his mother's behavior, and immediately said: "Mom, no, it's almost all eaten, don't bother."
Before Zhang Chi's words were finished, Xiao Xiao said, "Grandma, I want to eat tomato and egg soup."
"Okay, grandma will make it for you."
When Li Xiumei heard this, she immediately perked up and turned around to make tomato and egg soup.
"Going to work?"
Li Xiumei gestured at Zhang Chi.
"What kind of work?"
Zhang Chi was a little confused, he didn't know what kind of eyes his mother gave him, and he didn't want to drink soup.
"Get some tomatoes out there and wait for ready-made ones, you're three years old?" Li Xiumei thinks that her son is usually very clever, why is his IQ not online today, such an obvious matter, I have to ask more.
Zhang Chi realized that he was going to pick tomatoes, so he threw the last piece of bun skin in his mouth, stood up and opened the kitchen door, and went to pick tomatoes in the small vegetable garden outside.
It was very dark today, there was not a star overhead, and there was no moonlight.
If it weren't for the lights in Zhang Chi's ranch, I wouldn't have seen anything.
Zhang Chi took out a flashlight from the gourd, unscrewed it and shone it on the several breeding boxes he had planted by himself.
Tomatoes are easy to find, because tomatoes have shelves, which are not slippery in the middle, and are not as high as the shelves of beans, almost to the waist of a person.
Coming to the tomato shelf, Zhang Chi took a look, picked two or three and took them in his hand and went back to the house.
As soon as I turned my head, I heard a rare movement in the distance.
Looking in the direction from which the movement came, Zhang Chi found that the lights in the cowboy dormitory over there were turned on, and several gray figures came out of their respective dormitories, looking like something was wrong.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Chi quickly returned to the kitchen and handed the tomatoes in his hand to his mother.
"I'll go and see, it seems that something happened to the ranch," Zhang Chi said as he put the remaining basket of buns into a plastic bag.
"Uncle, I haven't eaten yet?"
Xiao Xiao saw that his uncle had put the last basket of steamed buns into a plastic bag, and thought that his uncle wanted to eat alone, so he immediately protested.
"If you haven't eaten enough, then steam, if you say more, tell your mother tomorrow morning, don't sleep well, get up at night to eat, and don't brush your teeth."
As he spoke, Zhang Chi gently flicked it on the little nephew's head.
As soon as the little guy heard that his uncle was going to do this, he immediately became honest, but the expression on his face was obviously not very convinced.
Zhang Chi was in no mood to tease his little nephew now, so he walked out with a bag containing buns.
When they arrived at the stable, Zhang Chifa Cannon and Brian were preparing their horses.
Zhang Chi asked at the two, "What's the matter?" ”
As he spoke, he placed the bags in front of the two of them in turn.
Whether it was Cannon or Brian, they had both eaten steamed buns, and when they saw this, they were not polite to Zhang Chi, so they directly took the buns and stuffed them into their mouths, and the work on their hands did not stop while stuffing them.
"There was a cow over there that had a difficult birth, and Dominic came to let us know that there was something wrong with the delivery," Brian said.
"The craftsmanship of these two men is also a little too rough. Let's go over and see," Cannon said.
Zhang Chi listened and hung the bun directly on the door of the stable, and he took a saddle sweat pad or something, and began to set Chiyan Mountain.
All three were veterans, and soon their horses were ready, and everyone mounted their horses and headed to the pastures to the west.
Cannon and Brian were eating buns all the way, and Zhang Chi asked about the situation in detail.
Cow dystocia is not a big deal, and cows that give birth to calves for the first time are most likely to encounter this problem, and many cows in Zhangchi Ranch are now facing this problem.
Some cows have little experience in calving their first calf, so cowboys need to watch over them carefully to know when they are likely to give calves, and they have to provide some companionship when the time comes.
If there is no human intervention, then it is easy to cause the calf to die, not the worst outcome, the worst is that the cow does not survive, and the calf is also hung thoroughly.
This is the case with Laifu before, if it weren't for the intervention of a few people at that time, Laifu and Laifu and its mother estimate that they would have to explain that night.
The three of them galloped all the way, galloping along the horse path, and soon reached the place.
The cow would leave the herd and give birth to her calves in a place where she felt safe and comfortable, so the three Cannons came to a leeward grove, not in the grove, but beside the grove, under the outermost oak tree.
The calf had been born, and Kevin and Xavier were standing next to them.
The cow was already on her feet and was licking the calf with her tongue.
"What's going on?" Zhang Chi asked.
It's been a bit of time since the announcement, and with Kevin and Xavier pulling the calf out, it stands to reason that the calf can already stand up.
Although humans have domesticated cattle for thousands of years, some characteristics remain as herbivores, such as calves being able to stand not long after birth.
"The calf seems to have injured his leg," Xavier said.
"BOSS, it's my fault, I didn't notice it when I pulled, the calf's front hooves were a little rolled, and finally Kevin reminded me of ......."
Xavier said.
Zhang Chi didn't say much, things have already happened, it's useless to complain or anything, even a cowboy no matter how careful he is, he can't guarantee that every time he encounters something, he handles it perfectly.
Although a calf was injured, Zhang Chi was a little distressed, but he still didn't get angry at Xavier.
"Just pay attention next time, have you called a doctor?"
Zhang Chi has a free doctor here, Isaac and his gang have a team of veterinarians, the level is definitely not low, how to say that they are also engaged in scientific research, if the level of veterinarians here is low, then what will this research institution become.
"The doctor wasn't here today, and they went back to town in the afternoon with some samples," Brian said.
Zhang Chi sighed.
Cannon was examining the calf at this time, and with his experience, he quickly saw the problem, or hurt the calf's leg when pulling the calf's birth canal, but it was not a big problem, and when the time came, it was enough to simply hang some water and feed some medicine to increase the physique.
Now Cannon's main concern is not the calf, but the cow, and if Xavier and Kevin hurt the cow this time, it will be a big loss for the ranch.
A cow can give birth to ten calves normally, but now if it hurts the body, the ranch will be a big loss.
So Cannon immediately checked the cow with Brian, and the two were relieved that there was nothing wrong with the cow.
Now that there is nothing wrong with the cow, then the problem with the calf is not a problem.
Cannon removed the sleeve from his arm and stuffed it into a disposable bag.
"In the future, the three of us will take turns in shifts."
This was said to Brian.
Kevin is 28 years old, and the Dominic brothers are also twenty years old, and they didn't think it was when they didn't have an accident before, but when this incident came out today, Cannon felt that the work in the hands of young people was too rough, so he decided that he would have an old cowboy formation every night shift in the future, otherwise who knows if there will be such luck next time.
"Okay, let's talk to Zarik tomorrow and see how this class should be arranged" Brian didn't object, he also felt that today's incident was his own luck and the others' luck, if he hurt the cow, it would be a big loss for the ranch.
Everyone chatted and waited to see if the calf could stand up.
The calf is also considered to be hard, but his front leg is like soft, and he doesn't focus at all, so after trying many times, the calf still can't stand up.
"BOSS, you go back first, this calf is estimated to be unable to stand up today" Cannon looked at the situation and said to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi didn't insist on staying, he also knew that he really couldn't help here, except for causing chaos for others, that is, being a mascot.
After saying a few words to everyone, and at the same time comforting Xavier and Kevin, Zhang Chi rode up the Red Flame Mountain and ran towards the gate of the ranch.
Zhang Chi knew that Cannon was definitely going to scold the two, and it was strange that Cannon didn't scold when this happened, and Xavier and Kevin should also scold.
As the ranch director, Cannon is now in a very correct position, and Zhang Chi is the boss, he is definitely not suitable for scolding, so this scolding must be done by him, the cowboy director.
To put it plainly, in front of the cowboys, Cannon is always blackfaced, and Zhang Chi is the image of a 'good boss'.
