Chapter 424 Squeeze
If the sister Zhang Juan is obsessed with riding horses during this trip, then her brother-in-law Sun Yanping is obsessed with guns. Ever since Zhang Chi took her brother-in-law to shoot the first target in the ranch, Sun Yanping seems to be fascinated, every day Go to the simple shooting range to play one time, unless it rains that day, otherwise you will not be absent.

Zhang Chi has also gone through such a stage, so he doesn't mind too much about his brother-in-law's good shooting, and it's even more trivial as for the money for bullets.

I don't even think about what Melika used to do. She wanted to buy bullets, but she used two boxes in one store like Zhang Chi. They bought two boxes in one store, and they just bought them one box at a time.

Sun Yanping and others saw the storage room of Zhang Chi's house for the first time and thought they were in the arsenal.

"No bullets, I checked several times." Sun Yanping only made a gesture to throw the gun over, but he didn't, and finally retracted his hand.

"Don't throw it if you don't have any bullets. If you don't have any today, what if you have one?"

When it comes to playing with guns, there should be no sloppyness. Even if there are no bullets in the gun, don’t point the muzzle at people. This is the most basic thing. When every gun owner first touches the gun , the instructors or coaches teach this sentence, never point a gun at a person unless you decide to shoot him.

Sun Yanping smiled awkwardly.

Zhang Chi wasn't going to let it go so lightly, so he said again: "This matter can't be a little joke."

"Okay, you're too late." Zhang Juan began to protect her husband at this time, and said something dissatisfied to her younger brother.

Zhang Chi said: "It's not that I'm troublesome, or that I want to find fault, but that bloody things are right in front of me."

While talking, Zhang Chi told the two of them about an incident that happened nearby. It was a very simple story. Two children played with guns. They were more than a dozen years old. One child pointed a gun at his companion and hugged him directly. It's cruel.The two children also played, playing heartlessly, and finally lost one of them.

This kind of story is not uncommon in the United States, because there are too many channels to get guns, some adults are also mad, forget to lock the gun cabinet or something, let the children get the gun, and it is not one or two that lead to tragedy in the end. .

In the practice of the old cowboys, it is not common to point a gun at others. Even if you want to warn someone, most of them aim the gun at the ground one meter away from the person's feet. with people.

You think this is the kindness of the cowboys, but it is not at all. Every step of the operation of the gun is in exchange for human life.

"I was wrong, it won't happen next time." Sun Yanping also knew that he had gone too far, so he apologized to his brother-in-law.

Sun Yanping is good at this point, he corrects his mistakes, he doesn't feel ashamed or flimsy just because his brother-in-law said it, he will admit his mistakes, this is an extremely rare quality.

Having said that, my brother-in-law also admitted his mistake, and Zhang Chi turned the matter over.

"How does the gun feel today?"

Zhang Chi asked with a smile at his brother-in-law.

Sun Yanping shook his head, said with a wry smile: "It's useless, the recoil is too great."

What Sun Yanping tried today was a Sand Eagle, the Desert Eagle hunting pistol. In many movies and TV dramas, the Sand Eagle is the main weapon of style.

In fact, this gun is not a good gun. First, it is heavy. Second, it has a large recoil. It is impossible to use it without a certain amount of strength. Third, it has poor reliability.

Its bravery in movies and TV shows is mainly based on its face, that is, its appearance. If you really hold it and want to hit the target easily, it will be quite difficult.

Let's put it this way, this is a gun that is so popular just because of its face, and there are very few fans of face-controlled guns who don't like it, even if they know it is useless, they have to buy one.

For example, a certain prodigal son named Zhang Mingchi.

Sun Yanping was also proud of Sha Ying's appearance, so he took it to the shooting range to try it out today. Let's put it this way, he was very excited when he went, and he was full of tears when he came back.

"It's not easy to use," Zhang Chi nodded and said.

Zhang Chi has used his own gun, but unfortunately, after playing with it once, Zhang Chi no longer wants to use it.

Sun Yanping said: "When the first shot was fired, I almost didn't startle me. If I didn't pay attention, I would just sit on the ground."

"It's just for fun, this gun is just a collection," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

"Why don't you play that Beretta?" Zhang Chi said again.

"Forget it, I still like five and six half, and I will mainly play it next time," Sun Yanping said with a smile.

Now Zhang Chi’s family’s guns are no longer the original two or three. There are no less than twenty or thirty long guns and short guns. They are also divided into guns from the ranch company and guns privately owned by Zhang Chi and Melika.

The guns of the ranch company are mainly rifles and revolvers, and there are rules and regulations for their use. Cannon is mainly in charge. Zhang Chi’s family has a variety of guns. Now Zhang Chi is no longer the poor boy he used to be. Although he doesn’t have much money now, The bank still has debts, but there is still money to buy some guns.

The most special thing in Zhang Chi's gun store now is a five-six-and-a-half. Buying it is purely sentimental, and there is no other way to say it.

Not only Zhang Chi likes it, but Sun Yanping also likes it, so if Sun Yanping decides to enjoy it in the future, he will spend half of it.

The two brothers were talking about guns when a horse neighed in their ears.

Looking in the direction of the neighing of the horse, he found that Cannon was galloping on the horse.

Seeing the speed of the horse, Zhang Chi knew that something must be wrong with Cannon.

"what's up?"

Waiting for Cannon to come to his side and rein in the horse, Zhang Chi opened his mouth and asked.

Cannon said: "Boss, the milk company informed us that the purchase price of milk will be lowered again."

"How much lower?" Zhang Chi asked, frowning.

These days, the milk of Zhang Chi’s family is no longer what it was at the beginning. Now almost all of the Amber cows have given birth to calves, so the whole east and west pastures add up to a considerable amount of milk every day. .

The considerable milk production prevents Zhang Chi from delivering milk every day, and the milk company sends a car to collect it.

Although the current milk production is many times that of before, Zhang Chi still has no bargaining power. He can sell it at whatever price he wants. Don't you want to sell it?Then you can send it to another dairy farm.

Can the price be higher if it is sent to other dairy farms?
If you think too much, if you drag the milk and run for another hundred or two miles, the price may still be the same when it reaches the land, and it cannot be higher than this price. be lower.

Is the milk from Zhang Chi Ranch good?It can be said that it is very good, and it surpasses all the professional dairy farms around here in terms of thickness.

It's a pity that it's still the same sentence, if you don't have pricing power, you will be exploited honestly.

Originally, Zhang Chi recognized it with his nose, but it has only been a while now, and the milk company notified the milk source that the purchase price has been lowered again.

"All lowered?" Zhang Chi asked again.

Cannon stretched out his hand and gestured.

"So much?" Zhang Chi didn't expect that the price of milk dropped by almost five cents. The money doesn't seem like much, but it's a bit much when the quantity is large.

"They say the market is soft during this time," Cannon said.

Zhang Chi said: "Fuck, I'm weak all day, either this or that, and I haven't seen the price of milk in the supermarket come down. What the hell, our side is weak...".

Zhang Chi cursed.

After speaking, he waved at his brother-in-law and sister, and then took Zhang Chi into the room.

After calling Melika down, the three of them had a simple meeting together.

After hearing Cannon's news, Melika began to think about it, and it didn't take long before she said to Zhang Chi, "Accept?"

"Is there any other way if you don't accept it?" Zhang Chi said.

Now it is man for the knife and I for the fish, there is no room for Zhang Chi to choose, what others say is what they say, if you don’t sell it, others will sell it, so much milk every day can’t spoil the house.

Even if Da Fei can drink, how much can one more fat cat drink in a day?
Melika also felt aggrieved, she thought for a while and said, "Then let's keep retreating?"

"Otherwise, engage in deep processing? We don't have sales channels here either," Zhang Chi said.

It’s not that Zhang Chi has never thought about the deep processing of milk. So what if you make milk into cheese, and the products you produce want to open up the market?It's that easy. Besides, Zhang Chi's ranch produces a lot of milk, quite a lot, but in front of a professional cattle farm, it's nothing at all.

Even if it is made into cheese and cannot be sold, it is not a bigger loss.

Melika said: "It doesn't work if we always do this! We can't be bullied like this. We can set up a cheese factory and wait for the products to come out. We don't sell them in China, but export them directly. Let Zheng Bohong and the others think of a way."

Zhang Chi thought for a while and decided to support his wife's idea. He was also angry. The milk company's repeated price cuts were really infuriating.

As the old saying goes, if you don't eat steamed buns to fight for your breath, clay figurines are also very hot, not to mention a young couple with a lot of money.

"Where do you think is a good place to buy land? How many manpower and machines are needed?..." Zhang Chi threw out a series of questions.

Melika was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you want to buy land?"

"Don't you need to buy land to run a business?" Zhang Chi felt that his daughter-in-law was just like ordinary women, she was pregnant for three years and would be in trouble.

"Just divide the land. Isn't there a useless wasteland on the west side of the ranch? A cheese factory can be built there, and the machinery is simple. The milk production of our ranch is about the same as if we hired five or six people. Yes, our quantity is small, if the quantity is large, it’s better to sell it to the milk company for peace of mind, of course, if the quantity is too large, you will have the right to bargain.”

Melika's mind is quite clear here.

Zhang Chi nodded and said, "Then do as you said."

"Well, BOSS, the cheese factory is not so troublesome, we can just do it ourselves," Cannon said.

After hearing this, both Zhang Chi and Melika couldn't help looking at Cannon.
