pasture leisure

Chapter 23

I was quite sleepy at first, but who knew that I didn’t feel sleepy when I lay down on the bed. There is no way, rough pigs can’t eat fine chaff, Zhang Chi usually sleeps on hard beds, but suddenly he sleeps on these soft beds at the elder brother’s house, feeling confused. It's as if the body doesn't exert any strength.

Unable to fall asleep, and did not turn on the lights, the curtains were drawn, and the room was already clearly seen through the night outside.

The scenery outside is really beautiful. Countless lights illuminate the center of Los Angeles as if it were daytime. The cars coming and going below are like small matchboxes in Zhang Chi's sight at this moment, constantly running on the road.

Raise your gaze, and you can see the flashing lights on the top of the tall buildings, flickering and almost merging with the stars in the sky.

Today's elder brother's house has really shocked Zhang Chi too much. Before, he had only seen such a house in movies and TV dramas. At first, he felt that such a life was far away from him, but now his elder brother lives in such a house. The house made Zhang Chi feel that he was very close to such a life.

The two people who came out of the same small place, the eldest brother has already lived such a life at this moment, and he is still running around for his life.

There is no one who does not like to enjoy, and it is impossible for Zhang Chi to escape.

I thought in my heart that I would live this kind of life one day, and felt that this was like living, and it was worthwhile to come to this world for a trip.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Zhang Chi admired the night scenery that ordinary people in Los Angeles could not appreciate. His mind was like a galloping horse, and his thoughts fluctuated.

I don't know how long I watched, Zhang Chi lay back on the bed, ready to sleep.

Unexpectedly, just a little sleepy, a message came from the phone.

Boom!
Zhang Chi took the phone and turned on the screen to see who sent him a message so late at night, but he didn't know what to do when he saw it.

"Brother, I did a good business today. There is a very good song. I bought it for [-] yuan. Don't worry, this song will be sold at a high price. I will count you as a shareholder and wait for the song to sell. Then you just wait to collect the money..."

Seeing the message Zhang Wuge sent to himself, Zhang Chi's heart went cold to the soles of his feet. Buying a song for [-] yuan, this person is going crazy!

Zhang Chi looked up at the ceiling above his head, and felt that his [-] yuan had grown wings and flew away from his eyes humming a little tune.

To be honest, even if Zhang Wu spends [-] yuan to pick up a girl, Zhang Chi will not feel this way when he has a good time. Buying a song for [-] yuan is really better than going to a bar to invite her. A beautiful girl drinks some wine, and then takes her to the hotel to have a good time, and she can still have a good time, what can I buy a song for?
红？
Red your sister's red!
How many songs can a well-known and unknown composer in the United States produce today?There are a few who can be popular, just buy a song at random and you can become popular, so why don’t you just buy an egg song, why not just buy a lottery ticket, now the prize pool is worth hundreds of millions, won’t it be better than buying a song?
Zhang Chi was really not in the mood to go back to his cousin for some news, so he just turned off his phone and continued to sleep.

The next day, when Zhang Chi woke up, Zhang Wen had already gone to work, and a small note was left on the table for Zhang Chi: Breakfast is on the table, if it is cold, reheat it.

Zhang Chi lifted the flipped-down plate and found a bowl of soy milk, and two small fried dough sticks that looked like grandchildren's generation. I don't know if the two together are as long as a palm, and two slices of toasted buns slices, with some lettuce and bacon on the side.

Regardless of whether it was cold or not, Zhang Chi sat down and cleaned everything on the table, then washed the dishes, dried them and put them in the cabinet.

He took out a piece of paper and left a message on the table, saying that he had gone back.

Zhang Chi didn't have any luggage, just a backpack with two changes of clothes in it, and it only took a minute or two to pack it up.

When he got downstairs, Zhang Chi walked along the route to the nearest rental car. When he arrived at the car rental company, he successfully rented a pickup truck. After getting on the pickup truck, he drove to the address given by the salesman.

At the intersection, Zhang Chi was a little confused, because the map showed one road, but there were two small dirt roads in front of him, and Zhang Chi didn't know which road to take for a while.

I had no choice but to take out my cell phone and call the elder brother.

"Have you seen the mountain, there is a big cross on it, any road is fine, just go straight and you will be there."

The eldest brother was very enthusiastic on the phone, told Zhang Chi the direction of his home, and asked Zhang Chi to come directly to the mountain.

So Zhang Chi, who hung up the phone, chose the closest road and drove up.

After driving in for about ten minutes, I saw a big dilapidated iron gate.

The door was ajar, and an old man in his forties with a stubble was standing at the door with a smile.

"Zhang Chi?"

"Brother Ma?" Zhang Chi asked with a smile and stretched out his head.

Brother Xiao Ma is not the brother Xiao Ma from Chow Yun-fat, but his surname is Ma. He opened a blog on the Internet and played short videos. His name is Brother Xiao Ma’s Ranch Life, so Zhang Chi and other netizens call him Brother Xiao Ma. .

Brother Xiao Ma has a bit of a cowboy taste, his whole body is a bit dirty, and he mainly wears dirt-resistant colors. Plaid shirt and jeans with riding boots, if you don't look at the face, you will think that this is a white cowboy.

"Come in, come in, the weather is quite hot, isn't it? It's cool in your place now." Little Ma led Zhang Chi to drive the car into the gate.

As soon as Zhang Chi entered the yard, Zhang Chi was shocked by Brother Ma's posture, because as soon as he entered the gate, there was a row of brand new small excavators parked in the yard, there were almost a dozen of them, which was quite a spectacle.

"These are all yours?" Zhang Chi jumped out of the car and said to Xiao Ma.

Xiao Ma said: "It's all mine, not just here, see that mountain top, it's also mine."

Brother Xiao Ma said proudly.

"The place is really not small," Zhang Chi praised.

Although this location is in the suburbs of Los Angeles, and it is also a suburb of the suburbs, it must be rich people who can own such a large piece of land in this place. The place is probably smaller than Zhang Chi's ranch, but the value is estimated to be Zhuo Chi Ranch This is several times higher, because this is California in the suburbs, and an acre of ranch costs an average of ten thousand yuan, no matter how cheap it is, it costs four to five thousand one acre.

"It's okay, by the way, how is your pasture over there? Have you bought all the cattle?" Brother Xiao Ma had chatted with Zhang Chi and knew that Zhang Chi also bought a pasture, so he asked casually.

"I've only bought [-] so far, and I'm looking at some more," Zhang Chi replied with a smile.

"Oh, let's go, I'll take you to see the drone," Ma said.

Brother Xiao Ma also runs a ranch, but his ranch does not mainly raise cattle and sheep, but raises a lot in a mess, including alpacas, geese, and chickens. In short, his ranch has no less than a dozen species of animals. many.

He doesn't live on the ranch either, and his main income comes from overseas shopping, but unlike others, he sells some Chinese products to the United States, such as those small excavators made in China just seen, in short, big There are big and small ones, and they do whatever makes money.

Others shop from the United States to the United States, and he does the opposite, from the country to the United States.

Taking Zhang Chi to the warehouse, Zhang Chi was startled again. He saw that the large warehouse with hundreds of square meters was full of piles. After a glance, he found that besides some machinery, there were clothes and even Some holiday plastic flowers or something.

"You have a lot of things here," Zhang Chi asked.

Brother Xiaoma said: "They are all worthless, like those clothes are the last order of returned goods, they are sold in boxes, I take them back when they are cheap, and sell them when someone needs them, again and again Make a difference... come, come and see which one you like."

Brother Xiaoma pointed to a row of agricultural drones on the ground.

The bodies are all about the same size, but the plastic jars under the abdomen are different. There are several types of large and small.

"The only difference is the jar?" Zhang Chi asked.

Brother Xiao Ma laughed and said, "How is that possible? How much is a plastic jar worth? The largest one can hold [-] kilograms of pesticides at one time, the smaller one is [-] kilograms, and the smallest is [-] kilograms." , but ten kilograms is fine. It’s okay for domestic use, but it’s not suitable here. Which one doesn’t have dozens of acres of land? Using this can kill you. Your family’s ranch is relatively large, maybe [-] kilograms. It's too small to fit..."

Zhang Chi nodded after hearing this: "What price?"

Brother Xiao Ma smiled and said a price.

"Can it be lowered?" Zhang Chi thought about lowering the price.

Brother Xiao Ma shook his head: "You also know the price of such things in the United States now, and what the price is here in my country. They are all Chinese and I won't cheat you. The price is the end. Don't worry about the quality, they are all very good. Yes, our domestic products are not bad, if you have a problem with what you use, come to me, even if I run away, I can’t get away from the waistband of my trousers, otherwise I will build you a small thing.”

The price offered by brother Ma is indeed good. As for buying these from American merchants in the United States, the price is enough to buy two or three here.

Otherwise, Zhang Chi wouldn't have traveled so far to Brother Ma to buy an agricultural drone.

"Okay, then give me one." Zhang Chi didn't want to linger here, and he had to go to the airport to go home later.

"Then I'll get you a new one. It's easy to install, and you can install it yourself when you go back."

Brother Xiao Ma was about to get Zhang Chi a new one off the shelf when the phone rang.

After answering the phone, Brother Ma said to Zhang Chi: "Brother, wait, I'll send these Mexicans away first."

"It's okay, you go to your business first."

Zhang Chi was very curious, so he followed Xiao Ma out of the warehouse.

A few old Mos at the gate drove two pickup trucks.

Brother Xiao Ma went up to greet them enthusiastically, and then followed them to drive the two excavators in the yard into the pickup bucket.

After a few polite words on both sides, the group of old Mos pulled the excavator away.

"Business is pretty good," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Brother Xiao Ma said: "Our machinery is cheap, and it is quite resistant to manufacturing. These old Mos can't make a lot of money after a single project. It is not cost-effective to buy American machinery. I bought my machine once and followed After a wave of old ink, I bought it from me, and all of them are repeat customers... ".

Back at the warehouse, Xiao Ma gave Zhang Chi a test of the new machine. There was no problem in starting it, and the spraying was smooth.

After repacking it into the packing box, Xiao Ma put the thing on the back of Zhang Chi's pickup truck.

"What's for you?"

Brother Xiao Ma thought for a while, and then said: "How about this? If you have a pasture, I will give you some affordable ones. How about giving you three little lambs?"

Zhang Chi originally thought that he would give him some spare parts, but who would have thought that he would actually give him three lambs.

"How do I transport this thing back?" Zhang Chi was a little in trouble.

Brother Xiao Ma said: "Just say it's a pet, just check it in at the airport. Don't be afraid, it's not difficult. I've done this more than once, and it doesn't cost much. Come on, pick sheep with me."
