Chapter 379 New Friends

American professors teach American students, this matter is not under Zhang Chi's control, at most he is just watching for fun, and he is just talking to others in his heart.

This is the condition of the ranch now, and Haydn and the others didn't have anything to choose from. After watching for half an hour, these people were about to leave.

Zhang Chi took them back to the ranch along the horse path, sent them to the car, and left his home.

Most of the things about eating in the United States do not have this item. Unlike our countrymen, eating is a big deal, and the rules of eating are even more complicated. Most people really can’t figure it out clearly, but in the United States There are not so many rules, and Zhang Chi also likes this one very much.

After Haydn and his group left, Zhang Chi had to cook next, so the meal was ready, and after the couple finished eating, Zhang Chi washed the dishes, and he and Melika were busy with their own work.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Chi's cell phone rang.

The call was from Lao Xu.

As soon as the phone was connected, the old Xu on the other end said, "Why are you still at home?"

"What time is it, where am I not at home?" Zhang Chi asked with a smile.

Old Xu said again: "Come here and prepare, you can't just come and eat ready-made ones, you are too picky."

"I'm not a guest, why do you still want the guest to work? Then what kind of guest did you invite?" Zhang Chi joked with a smile.

"Okay, don't talk about it, hurry up and slaughter the sheep, I need a sheep slaughterer here," said Old Xu.

Zhang Chi heard it and said: "Bought a sheep? What kind of sheep do you want to buy? I have sheep in my pasture. What kind of sheep did you buy? Just let me carry one over."

"It was given by someone else. If it wasn't for you, do you think I would let you go? Oh, there is one more thing, which is the most important thing. Is the wine I made for you last time ready? Let's have a try," Old Xu said.

After hearing this, Zhang Chi asked again: "Where's the bottle you brewed?"

"I put it at home, and I was thinking about it when I came out, but I still forgot, don't be stingy and bring a bottle, it doesn't need much, two catties is almost the same," Lao Xu said.

Zhang Chi is not stingy, if Lao Xu hadn't mentioned it now, Zhang Chi would have almost forgotten about it, and when Lao Xu mentioned it, he remembered that he still had wine.

"Okay! Then I'll take a bottle or two. But you said that your wine is good for medicine. Now I invite a group of friends to drink it. What do you do after drinking it? Isn't it suffering without a wife by your side?" Zhang Chi joked.

Old Xu said: "It's two different things, just don't forget it."

Zhang Chi said: "I can't forget it!"

"Okay, hurry up and wait for you to slaughter the sheep," Old Xu said.

Zhang Chi hummed, and Lao Xu hung up the phone.

Zhang Chi put the phone back in his pocket, went home and talked to Melika, Melika had no objection, as for what she would eat at night, it would be simpler, there was everything at home, even if she didn't want to do anything , You only need to take out the things in the refrigerator, and you can eat them in the microwave oven as soon as they are defrosted.

"I don't know when I'll be back, so don't wait for me," Zhang Chi said to Melika.

Melika hummed and continued to flip through the book in front of her.

Zhang Chi wanted to say something, don't read books for too long, but after thinking about it for a while, he didn't say anything. He left the house, went to the tool room, got on a small quad bike and left the ranch.

Just after leaving the ranch, he realized that his wine hadn’t been filled yet, so he turned back home. The medicinal wine was stored in a gourd, but he didn’t have anything to put it in, so he had to go home and find something to put it in. A two-liter soda bottle was filled with a bottle of medicinal wine, and Zhang Chi rushed to the town again.

Arriving at the land bought by Cannon and Brian, Zhang Chi found that the place was already very lively. Several prefabricated houses had already been erected, and some wood and other materials were neatly stacked in the area near the road.

Old Xu seems to be fine here, sitting on the pile of wood, chatting with a group of people, you can just chat, and he took off his shoes, a big toe protruded from a hole in the sock, Very unsightly.

"Come on!"

Seeing Zhang Chi approaching, old Xu turned his head and stretched out his hand to him.

Zhang Chi stopped the motorcycle, got out of the car with a wine bottle, and said to Lao Xu, "You can't peel a sheep if you are idle? You have to wait for me, you are lazy enough." .

Old Xu smiled and said, "I've only rested for less than a minute. The material has just been unloaded, and the cart loaded with the material has just left, and the matter of your front and rear feet...".

"Okay, I see."

After chatting with Lao Xu, Zhang Chi smiled at the others as a greeting. Zhang Chi knew some people. They were from Amber Town. There were no cowboys. They were all small farmers. Ten acres of land.

I don’t usually have any contact with Zhang Chi, mainly because they operate different projects. They are farming, while Zhang Chi is raising cattle. Although the land of these people mainly supplies nearby pastures, Zhang Chi has never been from these People have bought corn to feed cattle or something.

Of course, they don't rely on Zhang Chi's ranch to live. They still rely on their old customers to survive.

Although we are not familiar with each other, we know each other after all.

Zhang Chi doesn’t know about the remaining three people, and he has never met them before, but he can tell they are all Chinese by looking at their temperament and appearance, and they are Chinese who have come to the United States not long ago. .

"Zhang Chi, come on, let me introduce you. You don't need to introduce these few. You must know them all. These are my friends. They just came from China and want to start a business here in the United States, just like you. Raising cattle or growing a plot of land..." Old Xu said.

"This Yang Jing, this is Li Shu, and this is your fellow villager, Zhao Feng," Old Xu said.

Zhang Chi shook hands with the three of them one by one, and asked politely, "Have you looked at the place?"

Zhao Feng smiled and pointed at himself: "I have a place, and the two of them haven't set their sights on a piece of land until now, either the place is small or the price is expensive."

"Normally, the land price is a little unclear now. All the costs are rising, but things haven't risen at all. Instead, the land price has risen along with it," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

After a pause, Zhang Chi asked again: "Why don't you rent a land in China, and now I heard that you can also rent land in China."

"It's okay to rent land, but you can't rent a good place. The village has already digested it. As for some other places, you don't dare to belittle it. Here! Yang Jing rented you and asked him to talk to you." Zhao Feng laughed.

Zhang Chi was a little strange.

Yang Jing made a bitter face and said: "It's not so easy, things are not as simple as you think, first of all, the land you rented is still someone else's, and secondly, you invested in it, and when you wait for the harvest, a group of old men in the village The old lady came with something.

They usually don’t say anything, just pick up what they see. I rented land and planted some melons and muskmelons. You can still earn more than ten or two hundred thousand.

Who knows that the melons have not been waiting for the ripening. Farmers in the village come, not at night, but in broad daylight, in broad daylight, and those who come with baskets are considered good people. Many old men and women drive directly on tricycles. People jump down to pick your melons.

My daughter-in-law was crying and persuading everyone, saying that it’s okay for everyone to take some back and eat, why do you do this... ".

"Why didn't you call the police?" Zhang Chi asked casually.

But as soon as I asked the question, I felt a little embarrassed. He also came from the countryside, and he knew the twists and turns. Who should be arrested?Turning a few corners can lead to relatives with the chief of the police station. The relationship in the countryside is so complicated.

Besides, stealing some small melons is not worth a lot of money even for a car, and if it costs four to five hundred yuan, it may be difficult to even file a case.

Yang Jing said: "Call the police? I didn't come out as fast as they came out. It's okay if you don't call the police. Once you report to the police, they have more fun doing things. Everyone knows that they can't control them, so they just face you. On the face of your land robbed.

In the end, I stopped doing it, and I stopped renting the land. I can’t afford to mess with it, and I can’t afford to hide.”

Zhang Chi was quite speechless when he heard this. He had stayed here for a long time, but he really hadn’t heard about it. In his hometown, people were gathered together, the land was rented out, and the original farmers were changed to workers. The young people have all gone out to work, and even if they are not working, they have moved to Xuancheng to live, and only the elderly are left in the village.

These old people, like their own parents, are quite satisfied with their current jobs. They go to do some household chores every day, and the money will be settled when the day comes. They feel more comfortable than when they were farming.

Why was Yang Jing so unlucky to meet such a group of peasants.

Zhao Feng said: "It is true that there are troublemakers in poor villages and remote areas."

"That's it!" Zhang Chi followed and nodded.

Yang Jing asked: "I heard that the United States is good here, and you can shoot if you break into your land."

"Not all places are allowed to shoot, some states still have requirements for these," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Many Chinese who have just arrived do not know that the laws of different states in the United States are different. Although they belong to the United States, they are all union states. Otherwise, how can it be called the United States.Therefore, due to historical and other reasons, the laws of each state are not exactly the same. It is normal that what is legal in some states is not legal in other states.

"What about here?"

Zhang Chi laughed and said: "Here, you can shoot directly, and if you kill him, let the police come to collect the body and it's over."

"That's good here!" Yang Jing nodded.

It can be seen how much Yang Jing hated the villagers who stole his melons.

"Okay, stop talking, here, take it and kill the sheep."

At this time, Lao Xu handed over a knife and signaled Zhang Chi to slaughter the sheep.

Zhang Chi took the knife, found a stone to grind it twice, and began to slaughter the sheep.
