Chapter 477 The Beauty of Thinking

"Brother-in-law, you are so annoying!"

After watching for a while, Zhang Chi couldn't stand it anymore. He drew a square strip back and forth for almost five or six minutes. Who could bear it?

"Just go if you are in a hurry, and you won't be bothered if you don't see your heart. You don't have any certainties at all. Good things have to be grinded like this, you know?" Sun Yanping was a little unhappy.

After speaking, he turned his head and pointed his butt at his brother-in-law: "Go and play."

Zhang Chi didn't get used to him either, and went out with the basin in his arms and went back into the house.

"Yanping finished eating? So soon?"

Seeing her grandson returning with an empty basin, Miao Guifang asked in surprise.

It was only then that Zhang Chi remembered that grandma asked him to deliver things, but now the basins are empty, so he can't do it again.

"Well, it's over."

Responding vaguely, Zhang Chi put the basin on the operating table and walked out of the kitchen.

After thinking about it for a while, don't stay here, go over there to see if there is any work to do on the ranch.

When he arrived at the cowshed, Zhang Chi found that Dominique was laying hay in the cowshed.

"What is this for?"

Zhang Chi asked.

"Cannon told me to spread out the hay to dry," Dominique said.

"What kind of grass are you drying in the rain?" Zhang Chi asked.

Dominique said: "I don't know either."

"Where's Cannon?"

Seeing what he said, Zhang Chi wanted to ask Cannon.

In fact, there is no need for Zhang Chi to ask about this matter, but he is not idle now, he is looking for trouble, and now he finally has something to do, so it is a pity to give up like this.

"Forage library," Dominique said.

After Zhang Chi heard this, he went out from the east gate of the cowshed, and the forage warehouse was not far from the east gate.

Standing at the door of the cowshed, you can see the busy scene in the forage warehouse.

When he came to the door of the forage warehouse, Zhang Chi found that Cannon was carrying a bunch of cowboy yard materials. A new batch of sun-dried hay was about to be put into the warehouse. Because of the rain, the time was a bit rushed, so the hay did not arrive. Just like before, it will be coded as the car enters the warehouse.

First pile them up randomly in the warehouse, and then wait for the rain to come down, and then slowly pile them up, so that part of the grass will not be left outside to get rained due to time.

"How many crops of weed is this year?"

When they all reached the door, Zhang Chi didn't leave, and went directly to work with everyone.

Others are used to Zhang Chi working as a BOSS. No sycophant came to Zhang Chi and told Zhang Chi to stop being a boss. All the cowboys, including Cannon, felt that there was nothing wrong with Zhang Chi coming to help at this time.

Of course, if Zhang Chi doesn't come, they can handle it.

Brian said: "It's the fourth crop, and there will probably be three to four crops."

"How?" Zhang Chi asked again.

Cannon said: "It's definitely not as much as last year, and there are more cattle this year. Boss, I think we have to buy a batch of grass for storage. This year's pastures in the west will definitely not be able to count on it. Our pasture produces grass. Nothing will be enough for this winter, so my advice is to find a good opportunity to buy some hay and prepare for winter."

Zhang Chi said: "You don't have to worry about this matter. Before the snow falls, the ranch in Colorado will bring a batch of silage over, and it will be almost there by then."

"Silage?"

Cannon was refreshed when he heard that, no matter how you say, silage is better than hay, at least it has a green taste, and the cows like to eat it more.

Of course, according to last year's experience, hay and silage alone are not enough for the nutrition of the cattle, and the grass on the low ground will turn green again after the heavy snow falls.

Hearing that Zhang Chi already had a plan here, Cannon felt that this problem was not a big deal.

The two chatted and worked, and soon a pile of grass was piled up to the beams of the roof, almost reaching the top.

"Don't put all the pastures here, and don't leave the fodder storage in the west." Zhang Chi suddenly remembered that the pastures in the west also have fodder storage.

Cannon smiled and said, "Boss, did you forget?"

Zhang Chi was a little confused, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered that the big library over there had been used as a laboratory for researchers, and there was also a small library, but the small library was too small, almost the same size as his own ranch. The tool room is pretty much the same now.

"I really forgot about it," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Ouch!

Zhang Chi was talking here, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he saw something fall from the haystack, so he subconsciously tried to catch it.

Without waiting for Zhang Chi to rush over there, he saw Brian shake off the half bundle of grass in his hand, and the grass fell in the air on the spot where the person fell.

Ouch!

After the ouch, the person had already landed on the grass.

Without this bundle of grass, this person would have to lie on the hospital bed for at least a month if he fell from above. Although the place is not high, his back is facing down, and his whole body is equivalent to lying flat.

"What's going on?" Cannon frowned.

"It's okay, I didn't care for a while, it fell.

Getting off the straw bale, Kevin patted his butt and said he was fine.

But Kevin's hippie smile suddenly angered Cannon, and he shouted loudly: "It will be too late when something happens. Didn't I tell you to put on your seat belts? Why didn't you wear them?"

"I just forgot when I came back from the toilet...".

Kevin was a little scared, so he opened his mouth and said.

In fact, Kevin didn't forget, but felt that it was very inconvenient to drag this thing when the grass was being piled on the top. He thought in his heart that it was only such a high place, and it would be fine if he fell down.The main thing was that he didn't think it was possible for him to fall.

Subjectively, this guy is sloppy and has insufficient awareness of security precautions.

Cannon got mad, Zhang Chi lifted his foot and left, saying that managing the cowboys is Cannon's business, then Zhang Chi will not intervene, unless there is a serious problem, or how to punish the cowboys, it is up to him Cannon thing.

When he said let go, Zhang Chi let go without any muddle.

I haven't stayed here for long, and I want to change another place, so Zhang Chi thinks about where to go next.

Just as Zhang Chi was thinking, the phone rang.

After taking a look, he found that it was Serior who called. He thought it was about the tour group from Yan Zhou, so he answered the phone excitedly.

"George?"

The voice of the old man Seriol came from the phone.

The old guy's voice was so loud that it made Zhang Chi's ear canals itch.

Stretching out his little finger to pick the hole in his ear, Zhang Chi said, "Well, it's me."

"Do you have time now?" Serior asked again.

The voice was quite serious, and Zhang Chi didn't know what happened for a while.

"Yes, is my friend Yan's talk not going well?" Zhang Chi asked.

Serior said: "No, they talked very well, now it's our own business, everyone said we need to discuss it together and see what to do."

"Our business?"

What does Zhang Chi think he and you, an old man, have in common?You can still go hunting with your son, what kind of trouble will you have with you!

"You don't know yet?" Seriol immediately understood when he heard it, this silly boy didn't know what was going to happen soon, so his head is confused now.

Zhang Chi asked, "What should I know?"

Serior said: "As for the tax increase, the state has decided that our city will approve the tax increase first. It is not a big deal to increase the agricultural and animal husbandry transaction tax by a certain amount. There is also the most terrible thing. The state wants to increase the tax on agricultural land. A new law is established for the discovery of oil and minerals, allowing the development company to pay a certain amount of compensation before obtaining the development right without the consent of the land owner... ".

"Hey, what idiot came up with the idea!"

Zhang Chi became angry in an instant, and roared directly in Chinese.

This mud horse is worth it!
Neither of these two things can be allowed to happen, because the first one is to collect money, and the second one is to collect power. Things that originally belonged to the rancher can be plundered by large companies at will.

Needless to say, the first thing is that tax increases are not only done by Americans. The governments of all countries will do it. As long as the government has no money, it will collect more taxes. There is nothing difficult to understand.

The second one is really deadly.At least Zhang Chi can't bear it, and it is estimated that few ranchers can bear it.

It's not that no state has done this, but this state has never done it before, because the political cornerstone here is farmers and ranchers, large and small, especially small and medium-sized farmers and ranchers, who are the main force of the main ticket warehouse .

The United States is a federal system, and the laws of different places are not exactly the same. For example, in some states, if oil and minerals are found on the land, these things are not fully owned by the land owner.

But here where Zhang Chi stayed, as long as you bought the land, even a puddle of cow dung on the ground belongs to you. Thinking about why Nell's old man lives so carefree, at such an advanced age, he spends most of his time picking up girls and playing hawks, and his life is flying so fast, relying on the few oil wells on the land.

What comes out of that thing is either oil or colorful dollars.

Now the state doesn't know which asshole wants to take this thing back to the government.

Indeed, this part can increase the government's revenue, but it is also equivalent to poking a hornet's nest. Now farmers and ranchers the size of the state can't jump their feet.

After getting angry, Zhang Chi suddenly admired the person who brought up this matter. This is so courageous. Isn’t this setting himself up on the fire? You must know that the people who support the politicians here cannot be citizens. Well, there are not many pure citizens in this continent. Even if they live in the city, the farms and ranches are inextricably linked with them.

"Are you going to participate?" Serior asked.

There is no reason to hesitate. After living in the United States for so many years, what Zhang Chi has learned the most is not to give up his rights and interests, but to unswervingly defend his rights and the money in his pocket.

Although Zhang Chi's ranch has not yet discovered oil and minerals, what if one day he buys a piece of land and has it, and then he will let people mine it and dig his own land into a mouse hole?
This is something a father can bear, but a mother can't bear!

"Naturally," Zhang Chi replied firmly.
