Chapter 246: Shadow of the Grim Reaper
After eating, it was usually an hour of rest and eating, and all the students chatted together in groups of three or five, and most of them started to build snowmen, have snowball fights or something, and a group of people played like children.
Jian Heng naturally couldn't have time to play, if it was snowing, he would be able to play, but now that the snow is over, he has no time to play.
Because he wanted to shovel snow, Jian Heng took the tractor out of the warehouse, hung a snow shovel in front of him and began to shovel snow, the first thing to shovel was from the gate of the ranch to the sports area.
The two sisters of Barley and Wheat also drove a tractor, and a snowplow was hung on the tractor, following Jian Heng's tractor, when Jian Heng pushed it, their snowplow could sweep away the residual snow on the ground pushed out by Jian Heng, preventing the snow on the ground from melting and slipping.
If there is light snow, a snowplow can deal with it, but now such a big snow, 60 centimeters thick, this is not a snow machine machine to deal with, it is necessary to push the snow first and then clear the snow, so the two tractors one after the other, it took 20 minutes, the sports field to the gate of the ranch cleared a road about six or seven meters wide, the original road surface was exposed.
The ranch was cleared, but the road leading to the main road at the gate of the ranch also had to be cleared, otherwise it would be a white sweep, so Jian Hengyan began to clean up the road outside, not to mention that there was a machine to do the work, and the snow removal project of the entire road was carried out quickly and smoothly.
As soon as I arrived at the side of the road, it was only a quarter of an hour, and it was a coincidence, when I arrived at the fork in the road, Jian Heng met with the old Wash, who was also snowy.
The old man is also sitting in the tractor now, but the old man has to push the snow first, so the tractor is currently hanging on the snow pushboard, so there is still an obvious layer of snow on the ground.
"Jean!" Old Walsh saw Jian Heng's tractor coming, and immediately stopped the tractor and stretched out his hand to say hello to Jian Heng.
"Old Walsh, how have you been doing all this time?" Jian Heng also pushed open the door and walked out to say hello to Old Walsh.
The two got together at the intersection and chatted, the old man poured a cup of coffee for Jian Heng from his coffee pot, and then the two chatted with hot coffee.
As an old man who lives in Montana all year round, Old Walsh seems to be very frost-resistant, and in this weather, he only wears a down jacket with a thick sweater underneath, and a pair of jeans underneath, and at most a pair of underpants or something.
Think about the weather at minus seven or eight degrees, and you don't feel cold when you wear such an old guy.
Look at Jian Heng again, now there is a pair of underpants inside, plus a pair of line pants, and a pair of thick jeans on the outside, not to mention the upper body, thermal underwear, towels, and a three-piece wind-resistant jacket, just like this, I still feel that the cold wind on my legs can't stop drilling into the flesh, and I have to stomp a few feet from time to time when I stand outside.
"It's okay, I forgot to tell you, there are a batch of wild horses from our ranch, although the number is not much, only seven, but the quality is very good! It's really weird, there hasn't been such a good thing in almost twenty years" Old Walsh saw Jian Heng, and immediately remembered to show off the wild horses that ran into his own ranch.
Jian Heng said with a smile when he heard this: "Wild horses, it seems that there are a lot of them this year, and our family has also run a lot, but I don't know which one else has run into the wild horses."
Jian Heng was ready to pretend to be confused.
Old Walsh was about to speak, when the two sisters, Big Mac and Wheat, shouted at the two men on the side of the road, "We are going back to class, you can talk here."
"Go ahead!"
Jian Heng looked at his watch, and now it was about to be class time, so he waved his hand at the two of them.
Old Washh smiled at the two sisters, and then said to Jian Heng: "There are several, if you want to say the most, it is Edwin Harrison Marcus Ranch, originally they didn't slander us last time for driving away the wild horses they released, and now the mares that disappeared from their ranch are back, not only came back, but also brought back more than 20 horses, but unfortunately the more than 20 horses are too much, and what's even more strange is that none of the fifty or so mares seem to be pregnant now, so in comparison, they are still at a loss."
"It's good if the mare can come back, this man's heart is not satisfied!" Jian Heng inadvertently pursed his lips, and said in his heart: It's good for Lao Tzu to return your horse, and you still pick and choose, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will take away your cattle again?
Old Walsh knew that the initiator was the person in front of him, and he smiled and remembered another thing: "They can't be ridiculous now, do you know that they have lost more than a hundred cattle so far, almost half of the original breeding cattle have died, and the calves have also died almost thirty or so, and the losses are still rising, not even the loss of the North African Eagle Ranch!" ”
"So many?" Jian Heng asked in surprise.
He hadn't died so much when he left, how could so many cattle have died in less than a week?
Old Walsh sighed: "This is a thorn in the head, and now there is a pack of wolves, under the leadership of the Shadow of the Wolf King Death, it has become a rancher's nightmare!" ”
Speaking of the wolf king, old Walsh used death-shado, and asked an old rancher to use this word to call a wolf king, which made Jian Heng's curiosity aroused.
"So awesome?"
"You know the gear at Edwin Harrison Marcus Ranch, right? Together with the North African Eagle Ranch, six helicopters, and more than a hundred cowboys, they entered the forest to round up the wolves of the Shadow of Death, and in six days, the wolves slipped around six times like fools, leaving behind twenty-five cattle dogs, and then came out in ashes! When Old Walsh talked about this, his face was no longer disdainful of the previous mention of the wolf king, and his face was replaced by a solemn face.
"Won't it?"
Jian Heng felt that this thing was a bit bizarre.
Old Walsh nodded: "The only good news is that as long as you don't provoke it, the wolves of the Shadow of Death will not invade your ranch, we don't mean that we are afraid of them, it's just that a ranch like ours doesn't need a few times, and one time can make us lose half of our lives!" ”
If what Old Walsh said is true, that wolf pack of the shadow of the Grim Reaper is really very powerful. As long as you come to the last time, small and medium-sized ranches will really lose half their lives, and even make small and medium-sized ranches face the crisis of bankruptcy all at once.
Cattle and sheep in the pasture are the first, almost all private small and medium-sized ranchers are in debt, the price of cattle and sheep is actually like a noose around the neck of the rancher, for the general rancher to completely untie that is unrealistic, the price of cattle and sheep is looser, the price is not good, the nosso is tighter. As for losing half of your cattle and sheep at once? Nine times out of ten, you will have to end up selling the ranch.
"Tsk, I didn't expect such a powerful wolf king to come out, is this Chengjing?" The word Chengjing came out of his mouth, and Jian Heng suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his head, thinking if this could be the four-eyed black that he released?
"The bounty has reached 100,000 dollars, I heard that not only the bounty hunters in the United States, but even some people in Europe have come to take the 100,000 dollars, in addition to the ranch bounty, the police have also given a bounty of 30,000 U.S. dollars, a total of 130,000 U.S. dollars, as long as you get the head of the Shadow of Death, there will be a bounty of 130,000 U.S. dollars, and a bounty order posted at the door of Sarah's bar, as well as a picture of the wolf king," said old Walsh.
Just as the two were chatting, suddenly a car horn sounded, and the two of them turned to look in the direction from which the horn came from.
Jian Heng knew who was coming at a glance, a van truck, as long as he looked at the slogan that the soil could not be soiled on it, he knew who was coming.
The sign reads: If you want to build a house quickly, you have to find Serestor! There is also a small slogan underneath: Celesto – your good friend!
There is also a photo of Selesto next to it, the kind that is particularly gratifying, and it belongs to the telephone pole advertisement in China, which seems to be the level of a woman who is rich in money and seeks children.
Tick Tick!
Serestor's car came to the two and honked its horn.
"Jean! Walsh! ”
"Okay, I won't talk about it, there will be classes later" Jian Heng saw that Seresto was coming, and knew that the time was not too early, and he had to end the conversation with Old Walsh.
Jian Heng was about to leave, when he suddenly heard Seresto say, "Do you know the news?" ”
"What's the news?"
Jian Heng stopped and asked.
"I've heard that John O'Brien may be involved in a Ponzi scheme!" Seresto said in a low voice.
