Chapter 85: Losses

After settling the cattle in the pasture, in a sparse grove closest to the house, the whole task of herding the cattle was completed.

Old Lynch saw that the matter on his side was over, so he rode on the horse, supported the saddle bridge with his hand, bent over and put on a comfortable position, and said to Jian Heng: "Find someone to take me home."

"It's never too late to leave after eating" Jian Heng immediately invited Old Lynch to have dinner together, and he must have kept the family busy for several hours.

Old Lynch waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I have the opportunity to come to your ranch as a guest again, I have to run a ranch tonight, and it is not good to change the appointment time."

"That's it!" Jian Heng immediately took out his wallet from his pocket, counted out some money and handed it to Old Lynch: "You deserve it, today's salary for driving cattle."

Old Lynch was not embarrassed when he heard Jian Heng say this, he reached out and took the money and put it in his pocket: "Then I'll go, by the way, it's okay for the cow to stay in the forest for a few days, and there will be a problem if it takes a long time, you know the reason!" ”

Jian Heng likes Lao Mei's point, and he helps when he is suspicious, but when he talks about money, he talks about money, unlike in China.

Hearing Old Lynch's reminder, Jian Heng nodded: "It's just an expedient measure, the cowpen will be fine in a few days, and the cowshed should be completed in another week, not to mention the rain at that time, even if it is winter, there will be no problem."

Jian Heng has been paying attention to the weather forecast, there will be no thunderstorms in Montana this week, Jian Heng only needs a week, as long as this week passes, wait for the cowshed together, don't say anything rain, it will snow, Jian Heng is not afraid.

Old Lynch remembered another thing at this time: "Do you want to change this year?" If you want to transfer to a winter pasture, it's best to apply to the prefecture now, if it's slow, it probably won't be your turn."

If there are many livestock or other plans, you can apply to graze on the public pasture, and drive the cattle and sheep from their own pasture to the public pasture, or drive them back to their own pasture from the public pasture, which is called transfer.

Some people think that the land in the United States is fully privately owned, but in fact, the United States federal ownership of 32% of the country's land, these lands are mainly concentrated in the west, are mountains and grasslands, and at the same time, the state and local land also has a 10% proportion, whether it is federal, state, county ownership of these public land, of which the prairie that can be grazed is almost all public pasture, private ranchers can apply to graze on it.

For example, Jian Heng's current pasture, almost all of them are family ranches, and there are not many livestock, if there are particularly many livestock, for example, there are two or three thousand cattle, or even tens of thousands of cattle up the pasture, most of them will apply to spend the winter in the warmer valley public pastures, these pastures are usually surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the cold wind in the Montana Valley in winter is much weaker than that in the plains, so the relatively warm weather is more suitable for cattle and sheep to spend the winter.

"I have a maximum of 20 to 30 cattle in my herd, so I don't need to change fields, and when the harvesting machine from the pasture arrives, I'll be ready for winter and silage."

Jian Heng's plan is to eat all the cattle raised in the pasture in the future, and not sell them outside.

Raising too many cattle and sheep or something, it's really tiring, even if you don't need to work in person, thinking about how much cow you have to shovel, Jian Heng's head is bigger.

Old Lynch listened to Jian Heng's arrangement, and hummed: "If you need to, call me."

"No problem!" Jian Heng smiled.

The two chatted while riding to the house, and when they arrived at the place, Zhao Changshan took the initiative to drive Old Lynch home, and the rest of the people took a bath, changed into clean clothes, and sat around the table downstairs to enjoy dinner together.

"Why are you so old?" Zhang Jialiang now walks with his legs crossed.

On the table are fried beef tenderloin with onions, beef with dry cut sauce and beef stew with tomatoes, each of which is a pot, the kind of big soup pot in China, which is full of all of a sudden, and the rest are two vegetarian dishes, a plate of fried vegetables and a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

"It's a loss to you for eating beef all day long," Jian Heng smiled and reached out and knocked on Zhang Jialiang's head.

Picked up the bowl and put a piece of beef in the tomato stew in his mouth, and after chewing the rice twice, Jian Heng felt that it didn't seem to taste so delicious, not bad, it was really too much, so he mentioned it to Zhao Wei.

"Xiao Wei, remind your uncle tomorrow, tell him to change the taste, don't always be beef, get some braised pork, sauerkraut fish or whatever, you can't fall into the cow nest all day long" Jian Heng said while eating.

The beef is delicious, but I can't stand it for a long time when I've been so happy.

Zhao Wei made a bitter face when he heard this: "Boss, it's not that my uncle can't come up with a new trick, you go to our big refrigerator and take a look, in addition to beef or beef, last time you went out, good guy!" Bring back more than 100 catties of beef at a time, the freezer can't put it at all, and the refrigeration is full. ”

Tut!

Jian Heng took a breath, only to realize that the source of the problem was himself. Jian Heng couldn't say that there were still two or three hundred catties of bison in his secret space.

"Okay, let's finish it first, but the main beef is a little bit else, and it's always a fish from time to time, right?" Jian Heng said.

"Okay, I'll talk to him when my uncle comes back," Zhao Wei said.

Huang Xiaodong is very happy to eat at a table of people, a chopstick and a chopstick clip, not like others mainly greet vegetarian dishes, eat some beef from time to time, he mainly greets beef, rarely touches vegetarian dishes.

"Hey, look at Xiaodong's meal, it's so fragrant!" Jian Heng said with a smile and took a few bites of rice.

Huang Xiaodong heard Jian Heng say himself, swallowed the rice in his mouth, paused and drank the green vegetable soup, and then said: "If I tell my mother that I eat beef every day, my mother will not believe it!" Brother Heng, you are really good to us, before Uncle Zhao, I worked somewhere else, whether it was in China or in the United States, the boss would put some vegetables between two breads or something, and eat that thing for every meal, and I am about to grow hair when I eat it."

"Okay, you little pony, if you like to eat, eat more, follow the boss, he has a bite of meat to eat, he can share half of us! Or do you think I'll be following me here from New York all the time? Zhang Jialiang said with a smile.

When Jian Heng heard him say this, he smiled and said, "Your little pony is also good, and you are good at kung fu, why doesn't your thigh hurt?" Have the strength to speak? ”

Zhang Jialiang hurriedly shook his head: "It hurts, it hurts!" ”

"Wait for the end of the meal, I'll go and make you some ointment, you can apply it when you go back tonight, and you will get better after a good night's sleep," Jian Heng said.

"What about the cow?"

Jian Heng said: "Do you think you won't be able to leave you?" I'll watch tonight, and after the bullpen or something is ready, you'll have to call the cows alone, and when the horses are all bought, and then add a helper to you, and you'll have to study hard during this time, or you won't look good when the cowboys hire you, and your face won't look good."

Zhang Jialiang immediately said: "Don't worry, brother, I will concentrate on practicing, I won't go back in the future, I will live here!" ”

"Where to live? Where do you live? Jian Heng paused for a moment and asked, "I'm not interested in squeezing into a room with people!" The two of them are inseparable from twins."

"Isn't there a small miscellaneous room, I'll clean it up later, and I'll live there for a few days, and save running back and forth." Besides, don't you have a good house over there, and I'll sleep there when the time comes," Zhang Jialiang said.

Jian Heng thought for a moment: "Whatever you want!" ”

Living on the ranch is indeed beneficial to him growing into a real cowboy, wasting an hour every day on the way back, it is better to use it on studying, Zhang Jialiang thinks this is also a correct learning attitude, so when he thinks about it, Jian Heng will not say anything more.

After eating, Huang Xiaodong and Zhao Wei cleaned up the table, Jian Heng went upstairs to 'dispense medicine' to Zhang Jialiang, Zhang Jialiang slowly cleaned up the small miscellaneous room by himself, and the two sisters Barley and Wheat rode on horses to see the situation of the cattle.

The so-called dispensing medicine on Jian Heng's side is just a little melon paste, with a few drops of secret realm water, this amount is impossible to completely recover the wound, Jian Heng is not stupid enough to do this, but it is much faster than normal medicine, this is for sure, Yunnan Baiyao has caught up with Jian Heng's melon paste.

This medicine guarantees that Zhang Jialiang will use it, at least tomorrow he will not walk like he is now.

took the medicine downstairs, and just handed it over to Zhang Jialiang, Jian Heng heard the shout at the door and didn't know if it was barley or wheat.

"Jane, Jane, something is wrong!"

The voice is impatient, and it doesn't sound like a small thing.

The two sisters were in a hurry, and the first thing Jian Heng thought of was what happened to the herd, and he immediately trotted out of the house.

"What's wrong?" Jian Heng saw that Mai was looking at him anxiously, so he asked.

"Cow, cow, that pet cow of yours is fighting with the breeding cow, and the fight is very strong, my sister and I don't dare to step forward and separate them, it seems that your pet cow wants to drive all the bulls out of the herd....", Wheat gasped.

Jian Heng didn't say much when he heard this, and shouted directly: "Go, go and see!" ”

Then quickly saddle the horse bolted in front of the house, this job Jian Heng is much easier to do, as long as Jian Heng is given more than two minutes, Jian Heng can do it well.

"You come up! Let's hurry up, when are you still preparing a horse" Seeing that Jian Heng still wanted to prepare a horse at this time, Mai immediately urged.

Jian Heng didn't think much about it at this time, he directly put the mat he picked up in his hand back on the wooden frame, trotted to the side of Wheat's horse, reached out and grabbed Wheat's hand, and then turned over on the horse with his strength, clinging to Wheat's back.

"Hold on!" As he spoke, the wheat stirred up the horse.

Jian Heng subconsciously hugged Wheat's waist, and the moment he wrapped it, a strange feeling suddenly came from his palms and buttocks, and after a pause of two seconds, Jian Heng changed his waist to stretch out his hands and grabbed the pile head of the front saddle bridge forward.

Jian Heng didn't know if Wheat felt anything, but he carefully moved his butt back, lest his front crotch touch Wheat's plump round buttocks with the undulation of the horse's back, in case he would be ugly or something.

Before he reached the forest, Jian Heng heard the cry of a cow, not a cow, but the cry of several cows, with the intuition of a cowboy, one of them must have been seriously injured.

When it came to the side of the forest and the barley, Jian Heng found that the matter was far more tricky than what the wheat said, the two breeding cattle that he had just bought today were now lying on the grass, one seemed to have more air and less air intake, and the originally beautiful horn had now broken one.

The other one is slightly better, but not much better.

The remaining one was standing, but a bloody hole had been poked out of its back near its stomach, and it was bleeding outward.

On the other hand, the African bison, which was not injured at all, was now holding its head high, its body between the bull and the cow herd, and when it saw Jian Heng coming, it raised its head and mooed in the direction of Jian Heng.

I have to say that this voice is very rough, and the sound of the three bulls is covered at once, not only the three bulls, but it is estimated that all the bulls in the nearby pasture can hear it.

Because of the factors of the secret realm, there was a special feeling between Jian Heng and it, and when he heard the voice, Jian Heng seemed to understand that the African bison did not want other bulls to enter his herd.

As for when this group of cows became it, isn't this reason obvious, people are ruthless, these bulls are too wasteful to beat, and they can't be willing to be beaten by others.

People are not ruthless and unstable, let alone a bull grabbing a cow!

"Get a veterinarian!"

Big Mac said helplessly.

Jian Heng took a look at the breeding cattle and sighed: "Don't look for a veterinarian, find a slaughtering company and let them send a slaughtering car."

"That's not it, I think the cow can survive!" Wheat gestured to the bull that was still standing.

"What about surviving? Can't fit into the herd and want to sell? You see it's all scared out of the guts, who will buy it? It's better to kill and eat meat, it's a hundred," Jian Heng said with a bitter face.

Damai felt that Jian Heng's words were also right, so he nodded.

As soon as Wheat heard that he was eating meat, he immediately said, "Still eating?" ”

The three big bulls have to get a few hundred catties of meat, this is the bare meat, and when will it be eaten.

Jian Heng thought for a while and said, "Let's see how the price is, if you can, sell it!" ”

"At this time, the price can't be high! ”

Now is almost the time to sell the cattle, and it will not be too easy to sell it for a good price.

Whether it is selling or eating, now you have to find a slaughtering company, Jian Heng took out his mobile phone to make a call, and the other person happened to have nothing to do, so he asked the address and sent a car over.
