Chapter 79: Catch up with the American set

Early in the morning, Jian Heng got up and was sent by Zhang Jialiang to Kalispell and picked up lawyer Daniel. Jian Heng and the lawyer went to the New York auction house to deal with the purchase of the Daben car.

Things in New York are quite simple, one has money and the other has goods, and the auction house also charged a handling fee, and made a good profit, a real win-win, there is no obstacle at all.

It only took more than a day of work to deal with all the things, and after deducting a tax that made Jian Heng feel so worried, a large sum of money that he had never seen in his life was so smoothly entered the account of Jian Heng's New York company, and soon became the vast majority of the investment transferred to the ranch's account.

The numbers on the account are very good-looking, but unfortunately Jian Heng has only been looking at them for less than two hours, and when the flight from New York to Calisper landed, a large part of the numbers were swept away by the vampire-like bank.

In a few hours, Jian Heng changed from a millionaire to a small wealthy class with only hundreds of thousands of dollars left in his pocket, of course, in terms of real estate, Jian Heng is still a billionaire at the level of tens of millions of dollars, but unfortunately this thing can't be exchanged for money.

Holding a golden bowl and asking for food, it may be someone like Jian Heng. This is also a common problem of all family ranchers, who look rich, but have the money at their disposal.

Back in Montana, the light rain that started yesterday still doesn't stop, ticking and ticking is annoying, and what annoys Jian Heng the most is that a group of cowboys who have worked too hard have not eased up, and it seems that it is not a matter of a day or two to start work.

Fortunately, Jian Heng has a little money in his hands, and the extra money sold gives Jian Heng more room to operate, and the plans that there was no way to start can be launched, including the new home in his own planning.

The great ancestor said: Don't panic when you have food in your hands!

Jian Heng now has a beautiful knife in his pocket, and the flowers are natural and smooth.

Cowboys can't count on hiring people just right, and if you don't have one in the town, go to the nearby town, whether it's Kalispell, Batavia or Marion, you can hire people at this time, and you can still hire people in the professional construction industry.

As soon as the ticket comes out, what kind of person is hired? In just two days, Jian Heng finalized two professional construction companies, one large and one small, and the company responsible for Jian Heng's housing by the lake was of a higher level.

The low level is responsible for the new stables, as well as the huge new livestock shed, plus the supporting farm tool storage and forage storage, in short, the original ranch should have been relocated, staggered the planned student area to start anew.

Jian Heng, who has money in his pocket, has higher requirements for his residence, and he is unwilling to live in an all-wooden one, and that thing is full of bang when he walks up, and the sound insulation is not good, which is particularly unreliable.

Such a house is really not to Jian Heng's appetite. If an all-wood structure is not suitable, then build a mix of stone and wood.

In this way, Jian Heng made himself a gray stone-based bungalow with large transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, six bedrooms and two living rooms, a large bungalow of more than 350 square meters.

It sounds like a house of more than 300 square meters is quite awesome, it seems to cost a lot of money, but in the end, it is only more than 300,000 US dollars, which is a little bit more than a little bit according to the salary of the United States, which is the income of the middle class for two years. It's still made of stone, and it's cheaper if it's all wooden, and you can build the same house for almost half the price.

The workers entered the field, and Jian Heng became a supervisor, no longer participating in the work, not only Jian Heng, but also Zhao Changshan and a few others.

paid to hire someone, there is no friendship or friendship, Jian Heng can naturally be idle here, and let go of the sheep by the way.

Early this morning, Jian Heng got up early and prepared to go out, because today was Marion's livestock auction.

Jian Heng didn't go alone this time, not only the barley and wheat sisters were with him, but also Zhang Jialiang and Zhao Changshan went to see the excitement.

In other words, except for Zhao Wei and Huang Xiaodong, who stayed to watch the house, everyone who could go went today.

"Boss, we haven't done anything in the barn yet, why do we have to be in such a hurry to catch up with Marion's small auction, we can't wait until the middle of next month, also in Marion, isn't there a big one at that time?" Zhang Jialiang asked a little puzzled.

Jian Heng threw the things he was going to bring into the car body and explained: "Large and small have little to do with us! ”

Seeing Zhang Jialiang, he was still puzzled.

Jian Heng continued to explain: "The so-called large-scale, in fact, the main difference is whether there are many excellent cattle breeds, such as longhorn cattle, a good breeding cattle is hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars, with our strength, where can we buy this kind of cattle."

After sorting out the things he was fighting, Jian Heng didn't look at Zhang Jialiang and continued to explain: "The cow is like this, and the same is true for the horse, the big auction, what kind of thoroughbred horse, a good competition-level quart, will also appear at this level of auction, and our ranch can't afford it." What we need is a general ranch horse, not to look at the pedigree only to look at the training, an expensive horse is in the sky at four or five hundred dollars, the small auction will be bought, and it is more convenient and saves time, naturally there is no need to go to the big auction will waste time! ”

While speaking, he stretched out his head to look at the things in the car body, and felt that everything he should have brought was brought and placed very neatly, Jian Heng left the back of the car and walked a few steps to the bolt horse pile in front of the house.

After throwing off the saddle, he stepped on the inferior horse and shouted into the house, "Denver! Denver! ”

Zhao Changshan was already sitting in the car waiting to set off at this time, and when he saw Jian Heng actually getting on the horse, he asked puzzledly, "What are you going to do if you don't drive?" ”

Jian Heng said: "I'll go and see the construction site!" ”

When Zhao Changshan heard this, he immediately asked with an uncertain face: "These two groups of people are very good, let's put it this way, I haven't seen such diligent Americans in the United States over the years, you look at the speed of people, the workload of the wall is almost half a day on the side of the livestock shed, the work is fast and good, what else do you have to worry about here, be content!" ”

Jian Heng just smiled when he heard this, and saw the white lion Denver walking out of the house with an impatient face, still grinding as he walked, so he opened his mouth and said, "It's itchy skin, isn't it?" ”

Hearing the master's scolding, the little white lion Denver was in high spirits and trotted up. However, this state lasted only a minute or two, and soon turned into an unhappy expression lion.

"Brother?" Zhang Jialiang stretched out his head and asked Jian Heng: "Do you say that our Denver has grown a little too fast, it seems to be so big when it comes, and it has only become so big in just a few days!" ”

While saying that Zhang Jialiang also gestured.

In less than a week, the white lion Denver has grown up twice, and when he first came, he still ate goat milk powder, and now he eats meat directly, but unlike other lions, it seems to be better to eat cooked food, especially like pickled steak, or black pepper flavor, and the taste of the Chinese people is strange.

Like in the evening, this guy was stunned to eat more than a pound of roast beef, and the amount of food was really scary.

Jian Heng replied: "If it's long, it's long, you can't help but let it grow!" ”

After speaking, Jian Heng snorted and urged the bad horse to trot.

Jian Heng rode a horse, and the little white lion Denver was trotting with a small step with the inferior horse, don't look at the big pace of the horse's running, the speed was not slow under Jian Heng's urging, but the little white lion was stunned with four fleshy little short legs, and he was not behind at all.

The fleshy little paws tread on the grass that almost buried its back, and one could not hear it by ear.

When he arrived at the student dormitory, Jian Heng said hello to the workers and the team leader a few times and chatted for a while.

Of course, Jian Henglai didn't greet them, but wanted them to listen to the roar of the little white lion, so that they would maintain a high morale for at least two or three hours!

The rare diligence of these two engineering teams mentioned by Zhao Changshan is not that they want to be diligent, but the roar of the white lion Denver. Now the engineering team is doing its work, and it is a few points better than the Chinese construction workers, who are known as infrastructure madness.

If at the speed of real American workers, it will take a month and a half to renovate this livestock shed at the earliest, otherwise how could Jian Heng hand over the four walls to the nearby cowboys to do, just to rush the construction period!

Unknowingly, with the white lion, Jian Heng secretly began to squeeze the labor force of these Americans, so that the lazy American workers, the labor efficiency increased several times at once, which is equivalent to Jian Heng spending the same amount of money and hiring three people to work.

Of course, it's not enough to have a lion's roar, you have to secretly feed these people some secret realm water to eliminate fatigue, otherwise you might as well not play this trick if you work for four or five days a day.

In short, he took the little white lion Denver to walk around all the construction sites, and Jian Heng handed the little white lion to Huang Xiaodong to take care of, and got in the car and went to Marion to buy livestock with barley and wheat.

When the car arrived in Marion, it had not yet entered the town, and the first thing I saw was a large sign standing on the side of the road, which said a few simple words: Livestock auction, turn left at the first intersection ahead.

In addition to the text, there is a simple road diagram on it.

The brand is quite casual, a few wooden boards are so spelled, it is the size of an ordinary desktop, and even the burrs on the board are not dealt with much, and the words are written directly on it with paint, the only thing that is a little characteristic is that there is an eagle painted in the blank space of the wooden card, or an eagle wearing a hat with a star-striped banner.

The handwriting is good, but the painting style is not very good, half like an eagle and a chicken. It looks particularly heart-wrenching, making people feel like frequent urination.

This is the patriotism that can be seen everywhere in the United States, or I want to show my sense of humor, anyway, the American sense of humor is like this in Jian Heng's opinion.

According to the instructions of the road, Jian Heng took the lead, and Zhang Jialiang's pickup truck was behind, turning from the main road to the small fork.

Following the instructions along the way, I turned a few corners and arrived at the livestock auction house.

Zhang Jialiang got out of the car, looked around, took off the cowboy hat on his head, and asked Jian Heng while fanning the wind, "This is the auction venue?" ”

Seeing his surprised look, Jian Heng asked rhetorically, "Well, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Changshan followed: "This is not as big as the queue for the market in our town!" This is simply a group of defeated soldiers in the TV series."

Hearing that it was an auction venue, Zhang Jialiang felt that even if it was not as good as the auction in New York, there should be a formal venue, who knew that when I came to take a look, good guy, the whole thing was an empty field, and there were sparse pulls, large and small livestock trailers parked everywhere, which was simply a mess.

Each trailer has more or less cattle, sheep or horses next to it, and some of the animals have numbered plates on them.

Because filming has not officially started yet, cowboys of all ages are chatting together in groups, and those who are interested in them have also started to talk.

"Don't even have a place to sit? What kind of auction is this! Zhang Jialiang said dissatisfied.

Jian Heng smiled and pouted: "Huh! Isn't it over there? ”

Following Jian Heng's gaze, Zhang Jialiang saw several small stairs welded into iron frames, each iron staircase only has four steps, one meter five or six is about three meters long, and if you don't pay attention to it, you really ignore the past, not only is the height not high, but there are not a few, at most there are about a dozen.

"That's it? That's how many people can be seated! Zhang Jialiang said casually.

"It's just a small auction, not a $100,000 dollar order, so you don't think someone will bring you champagne and get a snack!" ”

Barley and wheat are farms at home, and although the regions are different, the routines are still similar.

"It's not as lively as the temple fair on our Bay Island," Zhang Jialiang was very disappointed.

This kind of small shooting will be quite simple, and the procedures will be as simple as how to come.

It's not simple, it's not good, the volume is here, the investment is too much, the money will definitely be posted, and the organizer is not stupid, he will do such a loss-making thing.

The auction is not simple, Jian Heng has no interest in caring, what Jian Heng wants now is to buy a dozen docile horses, and then buy dozens of suitable cows, with a few sturdy bulls, so that the skeleton of the pasture will be built first.

There was still about half an hour before the auction started, and Jian Heng and the others began to spin.

Zhang Jialiang and Zhao Changshan couldn't help much in the matter of buying livestock, but the two sisters of barley and wheat impressed Jian Heng, and the two girls could actually tell a word about the quality of cattle and horses.

With their help, Jian Heng saved a lot of time in the primary election of cattle and horses.

At about half past ten, the auction officially began, and interested buyers entered the venue in a sparse manner.

At this time, the iron steps, which had looked disorderly, had been moved into two rows facing each other, with an aisle of about thirteen or fourteen meters vacated in the middle, which was the passage for the cattle to enter for the buyers to choose.

Generally speaking, sellers rarely enter the auction market, unless their livestock is sold, they will come in to take a look and wait for the settlement to get the money, if there is no deal, many people do not care too much about how much money others sell, most of them will drive the livestock home.
