But listening to Simon, that guy should have been used to it for a long time, and when he made a mistake, he was beaten by his daughter-in-law and didn't even dare to go home.

It doesn't matter if it's known to the residents of other towns.

And even if he wanted to hide it, but there were too many times, and the people in the town could guess from the blue nose and swollen face on his face.

And this also dispelled Chu Xiangqian's idea of hiring Penoni to act as a personal armed guard for Xue Jinglan, Hong Kong Sheng, or Ehime when they came to the ranch.

The most taboo thing about being a bodyguard is that his temper is too hot, his personality is impulsive, and he is often unable to perform the duties of a guard.

But the fight is strong, which is naturally a good thing for the ranch.

In the future, there will be a fight between the cowboys on the ranch and other ranches, and if there is a cowgirl on the other side, it will be handed over to Penoni to deal with.

Even the wives of Simon, Hans, and others have done this kind of work before.

It's a pity that the former rancher is a little stingy, and even half of the salary of the male cowboy is reluctant to give Simon and the other people's wives.

But the vast majority of ranchers, or capitalists, are like this.

Only Chu Xiangqian, who makes easy money, would not care about thirty dollars a Tuesday and hire a middle-aged woman to work as a helper on the ranch.

After hearing this, Simon nodded busily, and then suggested, "BOSS, just let Penoni and Red take charge of the shooting range, and let them and their husband and wife act as professional hunters when the beasts come down the mountain."

And during the hunting season, if you want to go hunting, they are definitely the best guides and escorts. ”

Chu Xiangqian thought about it and nodded, there is no shortage of grazing cowboys, as long as he speaks, there are cowboys in the town who are willing to come over and apply.

It's a pity that even if it really needs to be expanded, the quota will be occupied by the cowboy descendants on the ranch for the first time.

Few of the children who grew up on the ranch were good at learning.

Young people who are used to being wild have finally become cowboys.

And in the eyes of them and their parents, cowboys don't make much, but they can support themselves.

This is a serious job that can no longer be serious.

On the contrary, those who engage in finance are liars in the eyes of cowboys.

To a certain extent, this is not wrong.

Chu Xiangqian saved little Frank because he planned to let him start a junk stock trading company.

Now little Frank has also entered Columbia University to study finance, and when he thinks that he has learned about the same, Chu Xiangqian will pay for him to set up a junk stock trading company.

And ordinary people want to make a fortune from junk stocks, which is almost equivalent to buying 'spinach', and it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no one in ten thousand.

And the target customer group of junk stock salesmen is cowboys, red necks and the like.

It's a lie, and it's really true.

But it's legal.

A sentence that the stock market is risky, and investment needs to be cautious, so you can avoid countless troubles.

——

Simon's eldest son, Simon, and Hans's eldest daughter, Sophia, have now passed a three-month to six-month inspection period and are truly part of the ranch.

And there are more than a dozen children in the ranch, half-aged children from ten to fourteen or fifteen years old, waiting to grow up and find work on the ranch.

Even now they are already helping out with some menial odd jobs to earn pocket money.

These children who have been doing odd jobs on the ranch in their teens have long been familiar with the work of the ranch, as long as they are willing to be cowboys, Chu Xiangqian has no reason not to hire them.

Fathers and sons, grandparents and grandchildren, three generations, and even four generations all work for the ranch, and to a certain extent, their feelings for the ranch will be deeper than that of Chu Xiangqian, the boss.

As long as there is no shortage of their wages and their salaries are good, the determination of these people to protect their pastures may be equivalent to protecting their own homes.

——

When the results of the second game came out, Penoni unsurprisingly got 10 rounds and 94 rings.

Not only is it much better than the other two cowboys and a sheriff, but even the scores of the two ace agents are only 2 and 3 rings more than her.

A pistol shot at a distance of 20 meters, with 97, 96 and 94 rings, can naturally be called a sharpshooter.

But in reality, the real power is to shoot moving targets.

In actual combat, the results are often much lower on the field.

Only those veterans who are accustomed to seeing life and death can exert their full strength on the battlefield.

Even overplay.

After the results came out, there was no need to compare the third game, Chu Qianqian reached into the inner pocket of his denim jacket and took out a stack of about thirty or forty hundred-dollar bills from his carry-on storage space.

After distributing the prize money on the spot, he handed over the remaining more than a thousand dollars to Simon, "Hold a barbecue party in the evening, and you can take it with you to buy what you lack." ”

Simon smiled and nodded and took the money, for cowboys, or for magnesium people, the party is the best and most cost-effective activity to decompress.

Don't think that the party costs a lot of money, if each family comes to the door with a plate of roast chicken, baked cakes and other food, a bottle of red wine, or a dozen beers.

That was really just a venue for the host, and three or five dishes and some wine.

Of course, a normal party is actually a party, and there is really no hassle to eat and drink.

People who like to be lively, but they still want to communicate with people.

As long as Chu Xiangqian is on the ranch, he will hold parties from time to time, which can be regarded as a benefit for cowboys.

At the same time, it is also to strengthen the cohesion of the cowboys and the recognition of the ranch and his boss.

If the welfare is high, Simon and Sam Gordon, the two cowboy managers, can also command the cowboys to do things well with more confidence.

——

It was almost time to play, Chu looked at his watch, it was almost 4 o'clock, and he was about to take Margaret and the others back to the manor.

But he didn't want Margaret to put his arm around Chu Xiangqian and shook it, "Honey, you also play a game, let's see how your marksmanship is?" ”

Chu glanced at Margaret forward, but if he thought about it seriously, it was indeed right to conceal his true marksmanship, but Arthur and the others were bodyguards, and Simon's cowboys were also close people.

It is actually beneficial for them to know their marksmanship.

At least when in danger, they don't make the wrong judgment because they mistakenly think the boss is a rookie.

This is often likely to determine whether the bodyguard will be killed or injured due to miscalculation.

Of course, Chu Xiangqian would naturally have reservations.

But when he was ready, quickly pulled out his gun, and fired 10 shots at the target in only 4 seconds, scoring 50 rings, everyone present was dumbfounded.

After Chu Xiangqian finished shooting, he was still a little unpleasant, put the gun back in the holster, and then reported the number himself.

One, two, three, he instantly pulled out his gun and fired 9 shots at the other 9 targets in the shooting range.

Not surprisingly, it was another 10-ring gun, and this time because the shooting angle was almost 120 degrees, and it was 9 targets again, which made it much more difficult to shoot.

But Chu Xiangqian still shot 9 shots in only 6 seconds, and this was not his limit, and it could even be said that he didn't even use half of his strength.

But even so, those present had already put him on the list of extremely dangerous missions.

Arthur and the other four ace agents glanced at each other, and they all saw horror and even fear in each other's eyes.

If the two sides faced each other, Arthur and the others knew that the probability of winning was very low just by looking at the speed of Chu Qianqian's first 4 shots.

And according to the estimation of the four of Arthur, Chu Xiangqian's first shot may not even be 0.5 seconds, and he has already drawn and fired.

This speed is probably already a record.

Maybe the third and fourth people on his side can take out their guns and shoot, but even if they hit Chu Xiangqian, he can also shoot the third and fourth shots at the same time as the third and fourth people shoot.

The end result is nothing more than everyone getting shot.

But if it is in a special scene, one-on-one may not even be able to pull out the gun, and he will have been shot and fell to the ground.

As for the shooting record, Chu Xiangqian's memory is 0.295 seconds, but this is a competitive comprehension, not actual combat.

And Chu Xiangqian still used a pistol, not a revolver that was easier to draw and shoot.

The position of the firearm is to be raised and shoulder-level, rather than shooting at the waist without considering the ten rings.

It was actually equal to Chu Qianqian's hand speed, which was faster than those records held.

Coupled with the fact that he still retains his strength, perhaps the real speed may only take 0.2 seconds to shoot.

In the real blink of an eye, the person has already been shot.

Margaret didn't think it was as complicated as Arthur, and after hearing the target, she excitedly hugged Chu Xiangqian's neck and kissed it.

Chu Xiangqian could only hurriedly put the gun in his hand on the table, and when the others saw this, everyone was envious.

Fortunately, the huge gap in identity and ability makes these people jealous, even if they are envious, they do not rise to jealousy.

It's really a gap to a certain extent, and subconsciously won't make comparisons anymore.

And Chu Xiangqian has such strong marksmanship, which also makes Simon and other cowboys admire, and at the same time, he is also very assured of the safety of the boss.

As for Arthur and the other four ace agents, they no longer plan to list him as a target who needs to be protected.

Coupled with the fact that half a year ago, when the ranch manor was attacked, Chu Xiangqian sniped and killed more than a dozen gang members, Arthur and the others almost felt that if they went on a mission with Chu Xiangqian, they would be the ones who would be holding back.

Chu Xiangqian instructed Penoni, who had been appointed as the manager of the shooting range, to lock up the arsenal of the shooting range.

Then he took his pistol back, changed the magazine casually, and put it in the holster on his waist.

Only then did he take Margaret, who was still excited, out of the house and got on the horse.

Take Simon and the others to ride back to the ranch manor.

On the way back, I also ran my horse and looked at the artificial lake and canal that had been dug by hand before the ranch.

I went to the vineyard area to check it out, but unfortunately the grape seedlings were old enough to be picked, and it took two or three years to say the least.

Even if you buy a ripe vine, you have to wait for a year or two for the newly transplanted vines.

So Chu looked forward and soon stopped paying attention to this side.

Anyway, the actual operator of the ranch now is Maria Tucker.

Since this woman was able to manage Tucker Ranch well since she was a teenager, and now that she has her own support, she will definitely have no problem managing the merged large ranch.

——

At the barbecue in the evening, the cowboys inevitably mentioned the private competition in the afternoon.

Some people envy the ace agent who won the first and second place, and Penoni, who won the $300 prize.

There are also people who are more concerned about their boss's marksmanship and how it is practiced.

There are a lot of cowboys and family members who are talking, not only Margaret feels proud, but even Jiumiko and Olivia, who were only eaten by him last night, look at him with admiration in their eyes from time to time.

But what gave Chu Xiangqian a headache was Maria Tucker, a western girl.

This woman has had thoughts about him since she saw Chu Xiangqian, and it is no secret in the two cowboy circles of the ranch.

It's just that Chu Xiangqian had a lot of scruples at that time, and it was inevitable that he had to avoid Maria.

But since Kumiko and Olivia have both eaten it, Maria Tucker, who has a greater effect, is not a problem now.

And since this woman knows that she has a wife and a princess lover, she is still willing to pounce, which shows that she doesn't care if she can be her wife.

Perhaps for Maria, having a skin-to-skin relationship with her is more meaningful than whether or not to marry.

Men are lustful, but women actually care more about whether their other half is good enough.

As long as they meet their material and physiological requirements at the same time, they are willing to be lovers.

In addition, this is the Wild West, and even though the social climate in these years is conservative, there are not a few unmarried people who are together but do not get married.

Margaret could naturally see that Maria, who had been staying by her man's side and not leaving, had it been for Chu Xiangqian's side to be too powerful, Margaret would definitely want to kill Maria.

But also because she didn't bring Nata, a personal maid, over this time, Margaret actually couldn't stand Chu Xiangqian's request in the past few days.

Otherwise, when I saw Chu Xiangqian taking Jiumiko and Olivia to camp yesterday, I wouldn't have excused myself from being unwell and didn't go with him.

When she returned to the manor in the afternoon and listened to the report of the housekeeper, Margaret knew that her man must have attacked the two female ninjas last night.

And like Chu Xiangqian's thoughts, in Margaret's eyes, Maria, who is in charge of the operation of Alisa Ranch and Tucker Ranch, plays a far more important role than Jiumiko and Olivia.

Blinking at Chu Qianqian, Margaret took the initiative to take the beer bottle and went to talk to Penoni, as well as the wives of Simon and others beside Penoni.

Chu glanced at Margaret forward, and secretly said that his daughter-in-law actually had a lot of thoughts, and after seeing Penoni's marksmanship, he took the initiative to woo him that night.

And Maria Tucker is not stupid, since Chu Xiangqian has a wife, as well as Hong Kong Sheng and Fei Fei, even Margaret is willing to follow him.

If you take the initiative, you don't believe that Chu Xiangqian will always reject you.

At the end of the day, Maria Tucker managed the Tucker ranch on her own as a teenager and kept it in good order.

It shows that she has strong ability, stronger competitiveness, and her vision will naturally not be low.

After meeting Chu Xiangqian, she would rather be a lover than get along with Chu Xiangqian.

To a certain extent, it can be regarded as a female version of the desire to conquer.

And the stronger Chu Xiangqian's ability, the greater his attraction to women. Seeing that Margaret acquiesced, he and Maria disappeared from the party after only a moment's hesitation.

However, the big strong and red girl who had been lying on the grass before, as well as the sables and chickadees hiding in the trees, followed him to the stable at the back of the manor.
