Chapter 531: Competition
When it comes to business, Zhang Chi knows his own family affairs, and it is not that material at all, so this matter is completely handled by his daughter-in-law Merica, and he doesn't even beat the side drum.
Merika also knew that Zhang Chi was not interested in these, and bargaining was not his strong point, so he took up the burden.
The quality of the moldy cheese is very good, but if you want to sell it, and sell it to these high-end tourist ranches, it is quite troublesome, and you have to obtain some documents, such as ingredients, whether there are harmful substances.
Anyway, everyone knows that the lives of rich people are always expensive, and this is evident in the United States.
This thing is very convenient, because both Isaac and Haydn in Zhangchi Ranch are talents in this area, and the test reports provided by their laboratories are also recognized.
Things sound very simple, but the operation is really not something that can be completed in a day or two, first of all, the price, Merica and others negotiate, it seems that it will not be like a moment and a half can talk about the results.
But Zhang Chi doesn't care about it, he makes a penny if he sells the moldy cheese, and if he can't sell it, it's nothing. Anyway, you can't be poor, you can't be rich, it's up to Merica to operate.
Zhang Chi's attention in the next few days was not on the matter of selling moldy cheese, but on the upcoming sled competition.
I haven't practiced many times, but Zhang Chi is indeed full of confidence, with the gourd in hand, Zhang Chi is arrogant and arrogant, and it is understandable, not to mention that whether it is a big cow, or three biaozi, etc., they are quite powerful dogs, sledding and living in the snow, not inferior to the dogs of extreme land.
On the day of the competition, Zhang Chi got up early in the morning.
Looking out of the window, Zhang Chi said a little depressedly: "Damn, there is really snow today!" ”
The weather outside is gloomy, there is a feeling of black soul pressing the city, this look is placed here, there must be snow, God here will not give you politeness, at this time it is snowing, and I don't even bother to pretend to you.
Merika also got up at this time, the habit of Americans, what kind of competition to participate in, as long as the family can get together, it must be together, not to mention Zhang Chi's race, even the child's kindergarten running, it is estimated that the whole family has to go out.
When Zhang Chi was in China, he heard the news about an American family, that is, he was eighteen years old, and his parents had nothing to do with his children.
After living here, Zhang Chi knew that this thing was a ghost, many Americans actually peeled off the shell, and we Chinese are the same, and some families will have the phenomenon of patriarchy.
Of course, there are also strange wonders, like Merica's family, it is really a very few, but you have to admit that the children who seem to be raised by the family are definitely the kind of business elites, and there are scum in the family, but there are more outstanding members, of course, this kind of excellence refers to business, whether it is an elite in human nature, it is difficult to say.
"What are you afraid of in the snow, the game will not be canceled" Merica glanced at it, then kissed Zhang Chi on the cheek, then sat back at the table and began to eat breakfast.
"Is it snowing?" Zhang Chi was a little confused.
Merica replied, "I've been living here for a long time, and the snow isn't quite normal, so if you have to avoid the snow for a competition, what will it be?" It's a sledding race, not a snow avoidance race."
After speaking, Merika looked at Zhang Chi and asked with a smile, "What's wrong, scared?" ”
"What am I afraid of, even if it is a knife in the world, I will take this first" Zhang Chi patted his chest, posing as if I was very sure.
Merika glanced at Zhang Chi, smiled and didn't speak, and continued to eat her breakfast.
Zhang Chi sat opposite Merika and started moving.
After breakfast, the two cleaned up, Zhang Chi and Merica started the day's work, and now Merica's body has recovered, so she has to look around the ranch every day, especially the cheese factory, for the requirements of the factory, Merica is very strict, although there are not many workers, but the rules set by Merica are firmly implemented.
Zhang Chi went to the cowshed to take a look at his own cattle.
The cows are very energetic, the big cows eat the grass, the calves eat the milk, and the cows that produce milk are very sensible to line up next to the milking machine, and the buckets of milk are collected in this way, and every car that is collected is immediately transferred to the cheese factory in the town.
As soon as he turned around in the pasture, time flew by, and after a spin in the cowshed, Zhang Chi found that it was time for him to race.
At this time, I didn't drive anymore, and went directly to the dog pulling the sled.
Merica also went, and her little girl, Hui Zhen, was also wrapped in a brown by her mother, and followed her in a cup.
So Zhang Chi stood on the back frame of the sled, Merica held her daughter, sat on the frame in front, and was dragged by seven strong Amber cattle dogs such as Da Niu and galloped towards the competition venue.
Before he reached the edge of the venue, Zhang Chi heard the barking of the dog, and as he got closer to the venue, the barking of the dog became louder, and the human voice also became noisy.
When he arrived at the empty field in the west of the town, Zhang Chi found that there were so many people who came to participate in the competition, and Zhang Chi glanced at it and found at least a dozen sleds.
"Good guy, there are still a lot of people," Zhang Chi said.
As soon as he said a word, he saw someone he knew in the town, so he whispered in surprise: "He also came to participate?" ”
What Zhang Chi saw was a Down syndrome patient in the town, who was a silly and stupid person in simple words.
"Is it strange?" Merica saw it too.
"Isn't he playing tennis?" Zhang Chi is quite strange.
"If you play tennis, you can't play sledding?" Merica asked.
Zhang Chi scratched his head when he heard this: "No...... Forget it, it's okay for people to have a wide range of hobbies."
Zhang Chi decided not to be entangled with his daughter-in-law in this matter, here, only this piece that Zhang Chi is familiar with, many people are enthusiastic about sports, which Zhang Chi is very, very appreciated, many of them participate in sports not for what is the first, purely just like.
Moreover, the government and associations will hold some competitions every year, and the prize money may not be much, but it must be very lively.
In other words, sports are widely carried out in the United States, and almost half of the people have a sport that they love.
This Zhang Chi has cognition, but a fool, participating in a few sports, makes Zhang Chi feel that he also has to develop a few more hobbies, you see that although people are so inspirational with disabilities, how can they be lazy as a healthy person?
Of course, this idea just jumped in Zhang Chi's mind, and in less than five minutes, Zhang Chi left this matter behind.
After finding a vacancy, Zhang Chi stopped his sleigh and came to the office of the organizing committee.
In fact, it is a place where two tables are put together, standing on the snow without covering, and the people here are very cold-resistant, at this time, many people are only wearing a pair of jeans, and some big girls are directly bare-bones with two long legs.
Of course, these girls are not from Amber Town, they must have come from the city, because the girls in Amber Town are generally jeans and the kind with two big bells.
I got to the place, I signed in, I got my number, and then I just waited for the game to start.
Zhang Chi took the number and returned to his sleigh, and Merica helped pin the number behind him, and then the family sat on the sleigh and played around.
After a while, some people gathered around Zhang Chi, some came to participate in the competition, some came to watch the excitement, and some purely came to volunteer.
"Oh!"
Hearing someone coming, Zhang Chi looked towards the place he was looking at.
At a glance, Zhang Chi found that Beni and these people came with a tour group, and these guests from the south of the country were wrapped like rice balls one by one, which made these Yankees feel very special.
It is estimated that in their eyes, these Chinese tourists are similar to penguins at the moment, they are all so cute and cute.
"Beni and Walter are doing good business this year."
One of them came directly.
"Why don't your ranch be converted into a tourist ranch? It just so happens that George is here, so let him introduce some guests to you as well," the other guy joked.
"Forget it, I don't have many tourists in that place, and I still keep my alpacas honestly," he said with a smile.
Zhang Chi saw Yan Zhou and Gu Ming at this time, and the two of them also saw him at the same time, so after saying a few words to the people next to him, they walked towards Zhang Chi.
introduced the two to the people around them, and everyone naturally chatted together.
Tiannan Haibei is so nonsense, but most of the time, it is the people in Amber Town here who ask, and Yan Zhou and Gu Ming answer.
Just as the people at home are curious about foreign countries, the people of Amber Town are also interested in some of China's customs and customs, especially now that the American media mentions Chinese, it is either demonized or bullionized, which makes some Americans have a strong interest in China.
Ordinary people accept information, most of it comes from the media, and the media is not much, boasting, praising and stepping on the ground is their essence, as for justice and fairness, you believe that it is best to check the brain.
Therefore, the reception of China's message by ordinary Americans is actually contradictory, but most ordinary people simply do not have the ability to think about this contradiction, or to see through this hypocrisy and grasp the essence.
Although a few people were together with idle boasting, but it was also an exchange between China and the United States, many people in Amber Town felt: Oh, it turns out that the Chinese are not what they think, or what they see in the news.
After about thirty minutes of idle talking, a man with a horn, that is, the mayor of the town, appeared, he stepped on a wooden box, very unpretentious, attracted everyone's attention, and asked all the contestants to assemble at the starting point.
In other words, the competition is about to officially begin.
