Little Life on An American Ranch Chapter 65

  Chapter 65 Preparation

  Drinking heavily, Jian Heng walked towards the pasture with brisk steps. Just after crossing the road, he heard the sound of a horn behind him.

   Turning his head, he found that his pickup was behind him, and behind his pickup was a brand new Toyota Tundra, with two rows of seats, and the small car in the back was the model that Jian Heng despised the most.

   "Hi, Henry!" The young man sitting in Jian Heng's pickup stuck out his head and greeted Jian Heng.

  This young man is called Dominique. He used to work on the Anderson family's ranch. The Anderson family's ranch is also adjacent to Jian Heng's ranch. He and Jian Heng used to be drinking buddies.

   It's just that a few years have passed and I don't know if he is still working on the Anderson ranch.

   Without waiting for Jian Heng to say anything, Zhang Jialiang stuck out his head in the new flat road behind, and said proudly to Jian Heng: "Brother, what do you think of my car?"

  Hearing his question, Jian Heng couldn't help but want to wipe his face, then turned to the young man sitting in his pickup and asked, "Dominique, is this your suggestion?"

  Dominic said with a smile: "I just gave him some advice! The main decision is his own!"

   "Brother, what age is this? You still hold such deep prejudices. This thing was produced in the United States by American workers. It just has an RB plate!" Zhang Jialiang is quite satisfied with his new car.

Jian Heng didn't want to talk about it with him, but pointed to the small rear trunk: "Such a big thing is not even enough to buy vegetables! Besides, how much did you spend on this thing? "

Zhang Jialiang said with a smile: "I have used almost all my savings on it. Brother, I am considerate of you. Now that you have a car, you have to use it. I can't keep rubbing your car. Besides, making money is It was spent, although I have no money now, but Brother Heng, I believe in you, I will never be hungry if I follow you."

   "Hey! As long as you like it!" Jian Heng didn't bother to talk to him. All these words have come out, let Jian Heng say nothing, let this silly boy get a new car for a few days first.

To be honest, although Jian Heng doesn't like little devils, he has to admit that the Tantu is a good car, with few minor problems and it's also durable. It's definitely enough for domestic use, but it's definitely good for a large ranch like the United States. It will be a little insufficient.

  The biggest problem with this car is what I mentioned last time. People can sit more comfortably, and there will be less cargo. Just like Zhang Jialiang's current car, the small body is a bit shorter than Jian Heng's car. You can only choose between comfort and goods, unlike American cars that are so stupid and thick, they want to make them bigger and bigger.

Another point is that the old ranchers here are generally old and stubborn. Although they admit that the little devil's car has fewer problems and is easier to drive, they will still stubbornly choose American cars. Some people even think that they don't need them. Where is the repaired car?

Let's put it this way, in the hearts of the older generation of farmers and ranchers, if you drive an RB pickup, you are almost equivalent to a **** or a hippie. Damn you, you expect these people to tell you some great truths, then you are really thinking too much.

  These people are very straightforward. If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't even bother to look at you. If you buy this RB pickup here, you just wait for everyone to make fun of you from time to time.

  Jian Heng can imagine that Zhang Jialiang was originally an out-of-the-ordinary person in the hearts of a bunch of stubborn old people. Now that he has a brand new Tundra, his image may not improve for several years.

   Too lazy to talk to this kid, Jian Heng opened the door and got into the passenger side of his pickup truck, so the two cars drove towards the ranch one after the other.

  At the entrance of the Anderson Ranch, Dominic got out of the car. Only then did Jian Heng know that Dominic had a rest today and Zhang Jialiang happened to drag him to buy a car.

   I have to say that Zhang Jialiang finally made Jian Heng feel relieved. Anyway, he finally made friends during January at the ranch, which is a good sign.

The two drove into the ranch one after the other. Jian Heng got out of the car and started calling around to confirm the time with the construction company, and then calls would come in from time to time, asking when Jian Heng's work would start. .

   I was busy for two or three hours, waiting for Jian Heng to relax a bit, and found that Zhang Jialiang was washing the car with a bucket.

  When I first bought a new car, as the owner, I always took more care of it, not to mention that this car may be the first brand new car this kid bought in the United States.

Thinking of this, Jian Heng stopped talking about this kid, let him continue to warm up his car, and he began to slowly calculate how many square meters of wood and how many people he needs to take care of for the rebuilding of the barn It can be completed before the group of people brought by the troublesome couple arrives.

  In addition, winter heating must also be considered. If there is no heating equipment in Montana in winter, it can freeze people into popsicles. With Jian Heng's current funds, it is obviously wishful thinking to do something special, so he can only build up the shelves as much as possible. Some things like heat sinks are not too urgent, and they are easy to install. You can move back a bit, and let's get all the pipes and wiring in the house done first.

   Right on Jian Heng's side, he was searching carefully, when the phone rang at hand, and when he picked it up, he found that it was the McAvoy sisters calling.

   "What's the matter?" Jian Heng put the phone to his ear and put it on his shoulder and asked.

   "We will arrive at Kalispell Airport tomorrow morning, can you come and pick us up, or should we take a taxi there?" I don't know whether it is my sister or my sister who is speaking.

  Jian Heng said: "What are you doing here so early? I haven't prepared a lot of things here. Didn't I tell you to come back later?"

  Hearing that the two sisters came so early, Jian Heng scratched his head a little, because the construction of the ranch will soon come, and Jian Heng doesn't want to take time to serve the two young ladies. In the morning, I specially called them and asked them to come over two weeks in the evening. I didn't expect that the two sisters not only came but also advanced the date by one day just after I called from my side.

   "We grew up on a farm, what work didn't we do?"

  Anyway, Jian Heng couldn't tell whether he was a sister or a younger sister. At this time, Jian Heng directly combined the voices of the two sisters into one.

Wanting to say something, another call came in from the mobile phone. Seeing this call, Jian Heng was immediately happy, because the call was from Zhao Changshan. The two sisters were useless in Jian Heng's eyes, but Zhao Changshan was different. , although it is only at the level of a street cook, he is still a cook anyway, and his meal at the ranch is finally settled.

  Don't think that foreigners can't eat Chinese food at all. There are many things, such as fried rice with eggs, seaweed egg soup, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Generally, Americans will have no problem eating them.

Meals for entertaining workers and helpers can't be like eating and drinking in the gym. Not to mention whether it's good or not, eating meat every day is like falling into a pig's nest. How much will it cost? These people don't have it How could Jian Heng do such a loss-making business without paying the money.

   "Wait, there's a call coming in, I'll answer it first." Before the two sisters could respond, Jian Heng connected Zhao Changshan's call.

   "Jian Heng, I will go there tomorrow morning and bring two apprentices with me." Zhao Changshan heard Jian Heng say hello, and immediately reported his flight time to Jian Heng.

   "I'm looking forward to your coming. Okay, I'll send Jialiang to pick you up tomorrow. Oh, by the way, the McAvoy sisters are still on the same flight as you. Let's go together then," Jian Heng said.

  Zhao Changshan knew the two sisters, and when he heard Jian Heng said that they would also come, he immediately wondered: "They also paid money to come to your ranch to get fit?"

Jian Heng replied: "Stop talking, if you talk too much, you will be in tears. These two not only don't spend money, but also want to make money from me! When you understand this matter, you can ask yourself when you meet on the plane! "

"Boy, you can, tell me, do you like sister or sister?" Zhao Changshan immediately thought about it, and smiled and played Jian Heng's joke: "You kid, work harder, I don't know you When you are in your sixties, you can still be like Xu Zhaobin, look at others, at the age of sixty-five, he found a foreign daughter-in-law in her early thirties with a healthy body."

"Okay, brother Changshan, don't mess with me, the phone bill is free. Pay back my sister and sister, I can't even tell who is who now! It's okay, I'll hang up" Jian Heng said and hung up Telephone.

  Hung up Zhao Changshan's phone, and Jian Heng talked to Sister McAvoy about the matter on the same plane, and quickly arranged things for tomorrow morning.

   Seeing Jian Heng put up the phone, Zhang Jialiang reminded: "Brother, people from the construction company will come over tomorrow morning. There is no room for so many of them in one car. Can someone sit in the back?"

   "Why not?" Jian Heng asked rhetorically.

   "Ah, who is sitting in the back?" Zhang Jialiang said in a daze.

"Love someone, anyway, you will pick up someone with your new pickup truck tomorrow, and I will wait for the construction company's people to come here, and then I will pick up the things I bought in South Africa. Also, I will buy some when I come back Stuff, vegetables or something, you just listen to Brother Laoshan on this matter." Jian Heng continued to think about his own affairs intently, and said to Zhang Jialiang while thinking.
