Chapter 96
Early the next morning, Jian Heng came up and pulled Zhang Jialiang, who was sleepy and confused, and rode out to get used to driving the cattle. Who knew that when the two rode to the woods where the cattle lived, the cattle had disappeared.
They followed the traces of the cattle passing by and soon found them in a new pasture. The two counted all the cattle, not only the cattle, but also the sheep and the deer. They were leisurely eating grass in the knee-deep grass. Some cattle and sheep even lie directly on the grass and lie down to eat, which looked very comfortable.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Jian Heng turned to Zhang Jialiang and said, "You cowboy may be unemployed!"
"Then can I practice my lasso?" Zhang Jialiang reached out and took up his wide-edged cowboy hat, reached out and scratched his head, and then asked, "That means I won't have to get up so early every morning in the future?"
Jian Heng glanced at him and said, "Look, you are so beautiful. You may not have to drive the cows in the future, but don't clean the cow dung in the cowshed. You can't just let them put it in that way, don't you do these tasks if you don't do them?"
"How much can a cow and horse be able to pull in a night? The work is easy!" Zhang Jialiang had no concept of this at all, so he said without caring about it.
Jian Heng didn't want to explain to him either. He would have a deep understanding of this thing in a few days.
Everything is good now. Jian Heng took the reins and was about to turn back to the house, because there were so many things today. Not only did he have to prepare to cut grass for silage, but he also had to take Denver to a group of lazy people from the engineering team.
Jian Heng was about to leave when he heard a horse's neigh coming from not far away. He stopped the horse and looked sideways, and found that Heidou was running towards him happily.
However, it did not approach Jian Heng, as if it was wary of Zhang Jialiang next to Jian Heng. It was just a sniff about seven or eight meters away from Jian Heng, and from time to time raised its head and jumped gently back and forth, expressing the joy of seeing Jian Heng.
"Go to the side, don't scare Heidou!" Jian Heng signaled Zhang Jialiang to walk two steps to the side and let Heidou come over.
While gently pinching the horse's belly, Zhang Jialiang walked ten meters away towards Jian Heng, while muttering in a low voice: "When did you establish a relationship with Heidou? This is too strange!"
Jian Heng didn't care about his ears, so he naturally heard his words sincerely and said without replying: "Just when you slept like a pig yesterday, I couldn't sleep and just came out to take a walk. I happened to meet a black bean, and then I communicated with it."
"You don't take me, I especially want to learn how to train horses." Zhang Jialiang saw that he left, Heidou walked towards Jian Heng and said a little enviously.
Jian Heng replied directly: "You should practice riding a horse first and mastering the horses. When you can master it skillfully and understand how to become a real ranch cowboy, you will talk about learning how to train horses. You can't even walk, but you want to run away. Tell you that you are still far away from this step."
As soon as he bent down, he blocked Zhang Jialiang's view with his horse's body. He reached into the grass and touched it. It seemed that he had pulled some grass, but in fact what he took out was the space grass.
Black beans smelled the familiar smell and immediately came over, stretched out their necks to eat the grass in Jian Heng's hand.
When Jian Heng found that the grass in his hand was gone, he reached out to touch the bridge of the black bean's nose. Unfortunately, the black bean paused for a moment, but he still stepped back and could not touch it. However, judging from the current situation, it was much better than yesterday.
"Okay, go back." Jian Heng was not in a hurry. Anyway, Black Bean couldn't go anywhere in the ranch, and one day he would become his own mount.
He took Zhang Jialiang back to the house, Zhao Wei and Huang Xiaodong had arrived, and of course the engineering team for the ranch construction also came. The entire ranch seemed to have become a large construction site again, with people coming and going.
Jian Heng also had a lot of things to do, mainly cutting grass for silage.
Under Jian Heng's arrangement, Zhao Wei and Zhang Jialiang took turns to cut grass from the tractor and bale the grass with a bale, Huang Xiaodong was responsible for transportation, while Jian Heng brought barley and wheat sisters to cut grass and put it in bags.
Anyway, everyone is very busy. After two meals, they have to go to the small restaurant in the town to order.
This is how I have been here for several days. Seeing that there are more and more silage wrapped in plastic bags in the warehouse, Jian Heng's heart is becoming more and more at ease.
Dou! Dou! Dou! Dou!
Just as Jian Heng was busy packing silage into the warehouse, he suddenly heard the sound of a trumpet and wanted to walk out to see what was going on. Before he could walk out of the warehouse door, he heard the sound of Xiaomai directly.
"Zhao is back, Zhao is back!"
If you didn't know, Jian Hengguang might think that Xiaomai was interested in Zhao Changshan when he heard this sound. The sounds of these few shouts were full of emotion.
When Jian Heng walked out of the warehouse door, he found that not only Zhao Changshan was coming, but also a young man whom he didn't know, about 20 years old. He was also a middle-aged man in his forties. When he saw the man's body shape, he knew that he often did physical work, and his body exuded a farmer-like strongness.
Zhao Changshan was chatting with the two of them at this time. When he saw Jian Heng coming out, he laughed loudly and said, "Boss, fortunately, I'm not humiliating my fate!"
After saying that, he reached out and patted the small van truck behind him, and a few pigs cried out from the van.
Jian Heng saw that the license plate of the truck was from New York, so he knew that he had driven through several states along the way, so he kept saying, "Thank you, thank you!"
I was about to ask who Zhao Changshan is, but who knew that the young man asked first.
"You are Henry Gene?" There was something strange in the eyes of the young man, as if he was a little disdainful of the man he was staring at.
Jian Heng felt it, but he didn't care.
Because Jian Heng looked down on this kid, either.
Look at this kid's outfit! The smallest clothes are probably two sizes in size. The crotch of the pants is hung directly to the knees. There are almost no legs in the whole person. There are dreadlocks on his head, and his whole body sways in the tone as soon as he speaks. You can tell what kind of hip-hop style it is.
You can say that he has a personality, but this does not prevent Jian Heng from not liking it. Not to mention that Jian Heng probably won’t like this person.
In Jian Heng's opinion, when you talk to someone, your whole body trembles, it means you are rude. Taking rudeness as your personality is simply a manifestation of lack of tutoring, and it has nothing to do with any personality.
For Jian Heng, a person who speaks to him and looks at him with his whole body trembling and looks at him with his body slanted is that he lacks the minimum politeness to himself. He naturally has no good face to him.
There is a saying that face is given by people, but face is given by oneself, that's what it means!
You can talk like this to familiar people in normal times, but for a stranger, you shouldn't speak like this. Jian Heng would not consider that he was hired by Zhao Changshan or who he belonged to.
"I'm Henry Gene! Where did you come out? Now, no matter who you are, get out of my ranch!" Jian Heng pointed to the door and said without hesitation.
Jian Heng's words made the young man stunned: "You told me to leave?"
"If I have a gun on my hand now, you're not leaving. It's better to run out of my ranch in a zigzag shape with my head!" Jian Heng said: "Now, get out of here and figure out how to talk to others before coming back!"
"Jane, Jane! This is my younger brother!" Damai happened to walk out at this time, and hurriedly said when he saw this scene.
Jian Heng frowned and looked at Damai, and said in disbelief: "Your brother?"
He said this, but thought to himself: How could you have such a ghost brother? Your father wasn't angry to death by him?
It is hard for Jian Heng to imagine what would happen if an old-school farmer had such a son in his family? He probably would have been kicked out of the house or locked up in the barn to reflect on his face.
Maybe farmers in Iowa are more open?
Jian Heng was a little inaccurate.
"Don't it look like it?" said the young man immediately.
"If you stand at my home and want to talk to me, stand for me, at least like I talk to you!" Jian Heng said to him.
For some reason, the young man was a little dissatisfied and looked up at Jian Heng's gaze. In just a moment, he suddenly felt that his heart suddenly broke out. He felt that the man in front of him would really beat him in front of his sister, not joking at all.
Shrugged, the young man took two steps back.
Damai was not angry, walked to Jian Heng and said, "My brother said Matthew, this is Gene, my boss. Gene, this is Donald, Derek Donald, my father's farm assistant."
"Hello, Mr. Tang Qide, welcome to the Silent Lake Ranch." Jian Heng politely extended his hand to the middle-aged man, without the domineering arrogance he had just now.
The middle-aged man stood straight and shook hands strongly: "Hello, Mr. Gene! I'm here to deliver Malaysia to Miss McAvoy."
After saying that, he pointed to the small pickup truck behind him, and a horse-drawn carriage was dragging behind the pickup truck.
Jian Heng was a little curious and turned to Zhao Changshan and asked, "Why did you meet each other?"
Zhao Changshan said: "We met Chamberlain in South Dakota. It was a coincidence that we stopped at the same restaurant. Because there were many people inside, we just joined a table. After chatting, we realized that they were also from Montana. When we arrived in Montana, we found that we were on the same road. After chatting, we actually went to the same ranch. Did you think this happened?"
Jian Heng was also quite surprised when he heard Zhao Changshan say this. He really didn't know what people would say about this probability.
"What a coincidence," Jian Heng said casually.
"Jane, let you see our horses." Damai didn't care about her younger brother's unhappiness at all. She respected her younger brother's dress, but she didn't think that Jian Heng was wrong. Being polite is indeed relative. If you don't respect others first, others will naturally not respect you.
Damai didn't think about this at all. When he saw the carriage, he happily showed off his horse to Jian Heng.
Jian Heng was also very curious. The two sisters kept praising their horses, so they followed Damai for a few steps and stood next to the carriage.
Through the breathable window, Jian Heng saw part of a horse. Based on the part he saw, Jian Heng felt that the horse should be good.
Bang!
Damai reached out and opened the door bolt of the rear compartment of the carriage and opened the door. When the two horses were presented to Jian Heng, Jian Heng realized that what the two sisters said was true.
The horse in front of me looked slightly smaller, with a large skeleton on the front chest, strong muscles, and wide hips. You can tell at a glance that it is full of strength, but the whole body looks very symmetrical.
Not only is it good-grown, but it is also well-maintained. All the manes on the neck have been carefully modified and tied into more than a dozen small braids, and even the tail is tied into a bunch.
It doesn’t take a look at the bloodline or something. Jian Heng felt that the friendship price of the two sisters last time that the horse breeds mentioned was really the friendship price.
"Good horse!" Jian Heng praised.
The young man followed and said, "Of course!"
When Damai saw his younger brother interrupting again, he said, "Matthew, this is not a big city. If you dress like this, you will be beaten up when you speak in such a tone!"
Cowboys have never been a gentleman with grace. They don’t like it. If they drink two more drinks, they will definitely speak out for a few people like Matthew McAvoy who appear in the bar and dress up a little ‘sissy’.
Let’s put it this way, just Matthew’s outfit is not a problem in the city. It may be fashionable when it comes to New York, Los Angeles.
But if you go to the small bar in the town that Zhang Jialiang often goes to, it will not end in just a few jokes. If he is beaten, there is almost no chance of being spared.
After being interrupted by this upset boy, Jian Heng forgot about the carp.
No matter how good the horse is, it is from the barley and wheat. Jian Heng feels that it has little to do with him. I thought about it before, but now Jian Heng doesn’t think about it anymore. First, it’s not easy to take advantage of others. Second, such a good horse is really uncomfortable to work in the ranch. You can tell that it is a race-level horse and cannot do rough work!
