pasture leisure

Chapter 158

Everything is quite satisfactory, Zhang Chi asked Brian to pay attention not to let Langdon and the others water the water too much, and he went back to the temporary dormitory to rest.

In less than an hour, Zhang Chi reappeared on the pasture and got off an extra horse. Riding on the horse, Zhang Chi saw that the cowboys had already planted a large area.

"There is a distance of nine to ten feet in the middle, and the grass will soon cover this distance, so there is no need to plant it specially," Zhang Chi said to Langdon.

Langdon nodded, then called the cowboy, and told him to keep a distance of three meters between the blocks, but the cowboy didn't ask, and kept the distance as required.

Turning his head and looking elsewhere, within sight, several tractors were pulling plows to plow the ground, while others were hanging natural gas tanks, scorching the ground with blue flames sprayed out, using high temperature Take the original alfalfa in the field with other plants and kill them together.

All the cowboys in the entire ranch started to move, a scene of enthusiasm.

But Zhang Chi knew that most of these people might be cursing himself in their hearts. The reason is very simple. It didn’t take so much effort. But with a word from himself, all the alfalfas here are being shoveled and planted with big beard that they don’t know. .If I were in the same position, maybe it would be worse than what they scolded.

Does Zhang Chi care?
It doesn't matter if you want to care about it. After all, these cowboys belong to the Melika Ranch, not his Zhangchi Ranch.

Looking at the endless pastures and the cowboys working on them, Zhang Chi couldn't help sighing.

"What a ranch, what a pity, what a pity".

Zhang Chi thinks this ranch is very good, the only pity is that such a ranch is not his own.

Thinking that the ranch is not his own, Zhang Chi began to think about it, wondering if he could hack the ranch.

But after thinking about it, it seemed a bit impossible for him to get his teeth out of the tiger's skin.

"Forget it, after all, we are friends. We have always been good young people with a conscience, so we can't do this kind of thing." After pondering for a while, he felt that he was thinking blindly, so Zhang Chi comforted himself.

"What's more, the little girl has a conscience this time, and gave me [-]% of the profit." Zhang Chi was happy again when he thought of this.

Even though Zhang Chi wanted [-]% to [-]% at the beginning, he also knew in his heart that this was impossible, not to mention Melika, a shrewd little girl, and it would be impossible for him to agree to it.

Why?

If it were you, would you be willing to use your own land to do business with others, and then only get [-]-[-]% of it?It's impossible for a fool to do it, let alone someone as shrewd as Melika.

Even if it was [-]%, Zhang Chi actually didn't expect it.

If you think about such a large piece of land, if you want to change the grass, water it, etc., you will definitely need manpower and machines, and these all cost money. Don’t look at the hundreds of thousands in Zhang Chi’s hand, which seems to be quite a lot, but This piece of pasture in Melika is nothing, with an area of ​​more than [-] acres, combined with more than [-] acres of land in China, and two million yuan, do you think it is a big deal?
What's more, Melika will solve the cattle problem at that time, which is another big expense. Don't ask Melika if she will transport the calves eliminated from the family ranch, a cow is a cow!

If Zhang Chi didn't have the ability to raise and weed out calves, Melika would go crazy and take Di Nong Niu and Zhang Chi to do this business together, and give Zhang Chi half of the net profit.

Although Melika earns a little more than before, but if it is really put outside, few businessmen are willing to split the bill with Zhang Chi, because on the surface, it is obviously not equal, Melika Others pay more, while Zhang Chi pays less.

So for this cooperation, Zhang Chi didn't show it on the surface, but he was a little touched by Melika in his heart. Of course, there was a little touch, but it's hard to say how much.

The cowboys in the ranch didn't want to talk to Zhang Chi too much, and of course there was Brian, but Brian didn't talk too much, so he didn't care, and it was even more impossible for Zhang Chi to care, because his mind was full of money now.

Waiting for the first batch of [-] acres of land to be planted and watered, Zhang Chi left and returned to his pasture.

When I came again, another batch of grass seeds was shipped over.

On average, nearly [-] catties of grass seeds are needed for one acre of land, and the amount of seeds required for more than [-] acres of land is quite a lot.

After transporting all the seeds, Zhang Chi directly threw the seeds into the warehouse here, and the rest was to wait for the cowboys to water them, and add the gourd pulp by themselves.

Therefore, Zhang Chi will 'check' the water source every time he waters.

Zhang Chi's place here is not big, the cowboys don't like him, and Melika doesn't have any special instructions, so it would be a ghost if Eric can arrange Zhang Chi into a large standard room.

So Zhang Chi shared a room with Brian here, and the two of them didn't care at all, and lived quite happily.

Eric got up early in the morning, washed up, stood in front of the mirror and trimmed his beard carefully. Most old cowboys like to grow beards, and they pay special attention to their beards, even more than the pursuit of personal hygiene. , it seems that there is a unique beard on the face, and it seems that you can eat two more bowls when you eat.

"Eric! Eric!"

While Eric was grooming his beard carefully, there was an eager knock on the door.

Eric put down the small scissors in his hand, came to the door and opened it, and said to the cowboy in the door: "Why are you so impatient?"

"Sprouted, sprouted!"

The cowboy said to Eric with a look of surprise.

Eric didn't quite understand, so he opened his mouth and asked, "What sprouted?"

"Grass, the grass we just planted has sprouted," the cowboy said happily to Eric.

"Sprouted?" Eric suddenly understood, and immediately confirmed to the cowboy in front of the door.

The cowboy nodded: "Well, it has come out of the ground, the buds are so tall, and they grew so tall overnight."

While talking, the cowboy gestured with his hands.

At this time, Eric didn't have the mood to take care of his little beard, so he went out immediately: "Let's go and have a look!"

The two left Eric's dormitory one after the other and came directly to the ranch.

There are already five or six cowboys on the nearest pasture, and everyone is standing on the edge, looking at the seedlings that have just sprouted on the ground with surprise.

Eric came to the side of these people, squatted down and looked at the young shoots that had just sprouted on the ground, his face was full of joy.

"It germinated so quickly." Eric felt a little unbelievable.

"Is the temperature getting warmer soon?"

A cowboy replied: "No, no buds can be seen in the fields of other farms. We have only planted them for a few days?"

The small young shoots in the ground are yellow-green, and you can tell at a glance that they have just emerged from the ground and have not really turned emerald green. Grow into what it is now.

In other words, these little grass sprouts proved that Zhang Chi is not a liar, and the new pasture he provided did grow much faster than the original alfalfa.

"Is this all the same?" Eric asked again.

"It's all the same, the grass seedlings are almost the same height," a cowboy replied.

"Go, have a look."

While Eric believed his cowboy wouldn't lie, he had to see it for himself to be reassured.

So Eric used his feet to measure the land that was first planted, and just as the cowboy said, all the grass in this land was the same as what he saw just now.

"Where's our original alfalfa? Has it sprouted?" Eric asked again.

The cowboys shook their heads.

Eric rode on his horse worriedly to have a look again, but what he saw was not the slight greenness drilled out of the soil surface, but a barren land with no greenness at all on the original ground.

The entire ranch suddenly became lively, and the cowboys who had been indifferent or even dissatisfied on their faces all changed into smiling expressions.

Zhang Chi just got up at this time, he just arrived here last night, so he got up a bit late today, and when he woke up, he heard the chaos outside.

After doing a good job of personal hygiene, Zhang Chi opened the door and was about to go out. In the aisle, he met Brian with a smile on his face.

"What's so happy about picking up a gold nugget?" Zhang Chi and Brian joked.

Brian laughed and said, "No, no, the grass that was planted has sprouted."

"What's there to be happy about?" Zhang Chi was a little speechless. Didn't he say this a long time ago? Why are the group of people still so happy.

Pooh!I really don't know.

Brian said: "They don't believe it. They always thought we were liars. If Miss Melika didn't agree, maybe we could all be beaten to death by these people here."

"Killed? Who do they think they are?" Zhang Chi curled his lips and said disdainfully.

Brian laughed a little.

"Let's go and have a look." Zhang Chi waved his hand and led Brian outside.

Just arrived on the road.

"Mr. George, good morning"

"Mr. George, good morning."

In the past, none of the cowboys liked talking to Zhang Chi, but now as long as they see Zhang Chi, they start to say hello from ten meters away.

Uh!
Is it so realistic?

Zhang Chi said good morning to these people, and then muttered in his heart.

The cowboys were nothing. Zhang Chi met Eric who had just come back from the field. The old guy with a dead face, now saw the wrinkles on Zhang Chi's face unfolded in an instant.

"George! You look really good today."

Zhang Chi said with a smile: "You are not bad."

But he said in his heart: Yes, you old man, I have been here several times, you old boy showed up for the first time today, I couldn't see you when the grass didn't grow, now when the grass comes out, your old boy will follow, what's the matter?Are you green too?

"I didn't expect the grass to sprout," Eric said happily.

Zhang Chi said: "Where is this? It will soon enter the rapid growth period. In addition, you should hurry up and plant the rest of the land. I don't have time to waste here."

Eric said with a smile: "We strive to complete the rest of the planting plan as soon as possible, no, we will work overtime from today."

Looking at Eric, Zhang Chi thought to himself: These people really don't see the rabbits and don't scatter the eagles. It's very realistic!
