Back at the ranch, Jian Heng forgot about the meeting and devoted himself to the work of the ranch, because after this heavy snowfall, grazing was already impossible, except for Da Niu and Qianlong, neither bison nor wild deer had the ability to push away such a thick snow to find the dead grass under the snow, even if the snow in the ranch was pushed away, it was not enough for the livestock to eat for a day.

What's more, at this time, even if the snow is pushed away, the grass is hung with ice slag, and ordinary cattle and sheep must have diarrhea after eating it.

To put it more bluntly, this is the time for the silage of the major pastures to come into play. If you want cattle and sheep not to lose fat in winter, you have to feed silage, as for what concentrate to add some beans or something, then sorry, what is fed is impure grass-fed beef, not only the taste of beef is different, but also the price is different.

If someone uses this crooked brain, then the slaughterhouse will teach these crooked ranchers a good lesson.

It's not that American ranchers are highly conscious and don't cheat, but most of them in the United States have too high the cost of doing so, and the punishment they have to face is far greater than the profit of cheating, so that almost everyone cares about credibility, and every rancher knows how difficult it is to build their credibility.

Fortunately, Jian Heng's silage material is sufficient, not to mention some of the original livestock at home, even if it is the thirty-four bison and deer that are newly brought in, there is no problem, there is too much. Because Jian Heng had his own ranch for the first time, and at the same time there was space, he was happy, so the tractor drove a little faster.

Early in the morning, after Jian Heng finished eating, he began to push the snow on the pasture, Jian Heng's snow pushing here was not to let the livestock graze, but to provide a larger range of activities for the livestock group. To be precise, Jian Heng's waist is bulging, and the small cost of burning some oil or something is no longer eye-catching.

The sudden sound of the tractor is strong and powerful, even so, after pushing for nearly a hundred meters, the tractor will become more and more solid because of the snow, and there will be times when it can't be pushed.

Whenever this time, Jian Heng would turn his head and change direction, so that about every hundred meters or so, a snow platform would appear in the pasture, the kind that was pressed very strongly.

Today's first snow platform happened to be, Jian Heng saw Zhang Jialiang riding a horse galloping in his direction, so he stopped the tractor, took a sip of water, and waited for Zhang Jialiang to come over.

At this time, there was no need to patrol the pasture, because the entire fence was buried under the snow almost fifty or sixty centimeters deep, and now the animals that could come out to move could already see the fence and nothing.

Toby's daily task is to drive the livestock out of the shed, and then feed the livestock with a feeder every once in a while, when to feed hay, when to feed silage, about once in a while, when not to feed, to move the material, to shovel manure after moving, in short, don't look at the don't have to drive the livestock to the pasture now, but the workload has increased by 50 percent faster than normal.

People are very tired, Jian Heng also wants to hire people, but unfortunately now the manpower is a hot commodity, not only has the price increased by nearly half, but even if it is the starting money, you can't hire people.

The most intuitive thing is to go to Sarah's bar, where there were only seats at the bar, but now you can find a single table at any time of the day, and you can pick your favorite spot.

There was no way to hire people, so Jian Heng picked up the work of a cowboy again and began to join the work of Toby's group.

"Boss!" Zhang Jialiang stretched out his hand and gestured, then got off the horse, got into the car along the ladder of the tractor, and talked to Jian Heng directly through the door.

"Boss, old Walsh is here"

Jian Heng listened and asked curiously, "He's here?" Why don't you make a phone call? ”

I thought my phone was out of battery, but when I took it out, I saw that not only the electricity was full, but the signal was also full.

"Where's the other man's house?" Jian Heng put the phone back.

Zhang Jialiang said: "In the restaurant!" It seems that the old man has encountered something difficult, and his face is not very good anyway."

Hearing this, Jian Heng pushed open the door of the cockpit: "You come and push it for a while, I'll take a look!" By the way, you're not too busy over there, are you? ”

"Fortunately, Uncle Jian took a hand, as well as Barley Wheat and a few students to help, everyone's enthusiasm is quite ......high," Zhang Jialiang said, leaning sideways past Jian Heng and getting into the cockpit.

Jian Heng didn't listen to him talk about these things, and after humming, he quickly fell to the ground along the ladder, then turned over on the horse, and rode Zhang Jialiang's horse to the restaurant trotting.

When he arrived at the restaurant, Jian Heng found that Old Walsh's pickup was parked at the door, so Jian Heng tied his horse and strode into the restaurant.

"Kyle, what's the matter?" As soon as Jian Heng entered the door, he saw that frost could fall on Old Walsh's face, the old man must have encountered some big trouble to have such an expression, the last time he saw the old man with such an expression, it was when Old Anders was there, an oil company wanted to pass its own oil pipeline through the side of his family's ranch.

"There is a disaster on the public pasture" Old Walsh immediately stood up as soon as he saw Jian Heng enter the house.

Jian Heng said: "I know"

After speaking, he motioned to old Walsh and everyone to sit down and talk. They were all old friends, and they didn't pay much attention to it, so they just sat at the dining table in the restaurant and chatted.

"There's no grazing over there, and if that's the case, I won't have enough silage at home, and it will take at least half a month for the snow to melt! You know how much silage has gone up now, twenty percent! Even if you want to, you don't have to," said Walsh Sr.

Before Old Walsh's words were finished, Jian Heng understood why the old man came to him, he didn't have silage but he had silage here, a whole two large and one small warehouse. Jian Heng made it all when he was making materials here, Toby hadn't taken over at that time, only Zhang Jialiang and Huang Xiaodong, it was really easy for Jian Heng to fool them, let's put it this way, just the silage prepared by Jian Heng's house, if he ate it only by his own livestock, he could eat it until next summer.

"How much green fodder do you want?" Jian Heng stopped going around in circles with Old Walsh, and asked directly.

Old Walsh was stunned for a moment when he heard Jian Heng ask, and then paused for three seconds before he said, "How much more do you have at home?" ”

Jian Heng's next sentence almost moved the old man to tears.

"First of all, it's just your family's pasture, our family doesn't expect cattle to sell for money, it doesn't matter if you lose a little fat!" After Jian Heng finished speaking, he began to calculate in his heart how much green material he could give to the old Walsh family.

"Well, how about I give you two hundred packs?" Jian Heng said.

The bag that Jian Heng said was a bag wrapped in green material, no matter how you say it, a bag must have two or three hundred pounds, and Old Walsh also knew it, because everyone was so stocked with green material, he naturally knew how many pounds this bag of green material was.

Jian Heng's number directly startled Old Walsh, and after coming back to his senses, he instantly became excited: "Really? Two hundred packs? ”

Not in the position of the old Walsh, I don't know what the storage of these two hundred bags means, this can be said to be life-saving material, without these two hundred bags of silage, then the old Walsh cattle are waiting for the silage outside to be transported over, and the fat does not know where it fell, and now the road is closed by heavy snow, waiting to open up the passage connecting to the outside, and then the forage comes in again, whether the calves and lambs can survive is a problem.

Jian Heng smiled and pushed away Old Walsh's hand, the old man's grasp just now almost hurt Jian Heng's bones: "I said, it's two hundred bags of silage, you won't be like this!" ”

"As for it, it's the equivalent of saving my ranch," Old Washh didn't know what to say at this time.

After the excitement, old Walsh was strange again: "What are you doing without raising so many cattle and sheep and piling up so much silage?" ”

Jian Heng can't say that he used a tractor to harvest the grass in the space, and finally got a little too much, not to mention the grass in the space, let's just say that the grass in the pasture outside can be cut down, and the two hundred bags on Old Walsh's side can be made up, you must know that Old Anders is equivalent to abandoning the waste for two years! If the grass is good, it can't be better, feed fewer cows, and waste grass is not what a cowboy should do, so Jian Heng cut more.

But I couldn't talk about it, so I had to say, "I thought I could feed some deer or something during the winter, who would have thought you would use it."

After thinking for a while, Jian Heng said: "When you see Catherine, ask her if she wants it, and if she wants, I will get her one or two hundred packs."

When Old Walsh heard this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed Catherine, and when Catherine heard it, she threw down a word: Yes!

Only then did Jian Heng know that after this snowstorm, emotional silage had become a hot commodity.

"Can I come over in the afternoon to transport the materials? You don't have to be busy, I'll bring someone over directly," Old Walsh said to Jian Heng.

Jian Heng was a little confused by the old man, and joked at Old Walsh: "Okay, are you still afraid that my words won't count?" ”

"I don't have this kind of thought, I'm just afraid that if I don't take it, someone else will take the lead!" Old Walsh said seriously.

"Okay, okay! You're coming in the afternoon! "Jian Heng has no problem with the old man.

Originally, Jian Heng was going to give it, not to write a blank check, and besides, the two families came to transport the silage by themselves, and Jian Heng didn't think much about it, so he let the two of them transport it!

In this way, it was agreed that at three o'clock in the afternoon, Jian Heng took the keys to the two silage warehouses and waited for the two families to come to pick up the materials.

You must know that two hundred bags of silage are not something that one or two pickup trucks can transport, so there are more than a dozen cars gathered here on both sides, including pickup trucks, small goods, and even trailers for transporting horses.
