America's Road to Wealth

Chapter 114 Going to Houston (910 for subscription)
In the evening, Abel happily chatted with Little John and others.

Set off together to meet up with other farmers, as well as specially hired professional hunters.

The meeting place was about twenty miles away from Smith Farm.

It is said that the wolf pack was last seen by eyewitnesses there.

Smith Farm, originally planned to send four people to go.

Little John and his son, plus two other cowboys with better marksmanship.

Abel wants to go to see the scene together now, and there are more people going to Smith Farm.

It became the father and son of Little John, plus Abel, and Abel's four bodyguards.

A total of seven people, driving three vehicles and carrying an unknown number of weapons, went to the rendezvous point.

Also brought four dogs, two Rottweilers, two Irish Wolfhounds.

Rottweilers are guard dogs, not good at tracking prey.

Irish wolfhounds are good at hunting wolves, but they can't beat Mexican wolves one-on-one.

But two can gang up on a Mexican wolf and drag it until the owner shows up.

Well, in fact, it still can't beat the larger Mexican wolf.

Except for a very few oversized individuals, in reality, there are no dogs that can go head-to-head with the North American gray wolf subspecies, the Mexican wolf.

In this subspecies of gray wolf, the adult male wolf can weigh more than [-] kilograms, and the head wolf generally weighs more than [-] kilograms.

Individual individuals even have a record of 100 kg.

The weight of an adult Caucasian male dog is about 70 kg.

Tibetan mastiff is about 65-70.

In the animal kingdom, a big body is a dick.

What's more, they are still active in groups, and they are very smart and will cooperate as a team.

If you don't rely on the owner, it is estimated that more than one or two hundred large hounds can threaten a Mexican wolf pack.

The main purpose of taking dogs there is to use their sense of smell and keen hunting instinct to help spot wolves.

Humans were the last to do it, and they only played an auxiliary role.

Around ten o'clock in the evening, everyone drove off.

Abel's car was driven by Edward, a native who knew the way.

Little John's son, John IV, is also here, as are two other Rottweilers.

The Rottweilers were in the trunk with Abel, and the two Rottweilers were old dogs.

They were all fed by Abel when they were young, and they remembered this master.

They were very excited to find Abel in the car.

"Haha~ Don't lick, don't lick. Danny, stop, no, shut up! And Luo Wei, you too!!"

The two dogs were so enthusiastic that Abe ended up having to use the same catchphrase that Alexander used when he was tuning them.

Only then did they calm down, and they lay obediently on the seat, leaning on him from left to right.

Both dogs are very clean, and they used to be bathed about every two to three days when Abel was at home.

Abel and Alexander are not at home now, so it becomes Emily to bathe them.

It just so happened that they had all been bathed today and were sprayed with veterinary perfume, so they didn't smell like dogs.

Holding a Rottweiler with one hand, Abel said casually:

"By the way, IV. What happened to the old Depp last time?"

Abel still remembers a small accident that was not an accident on the way back last time when he came back.

It was then handled by John IV.

He thought about it now, so he asked.

It's been a few days, but John IV still has that kind of silly voice.

"After you left, the police came. In the end, I paid Depp $50, and he left happily."

Abel was not surprised by this result.

Due to the sturdy folk customs, here in Texas.

Small traffic accidents like this, or small conflicts.

The police in Texas, as long as they are not too excessive, can choose to be private as long as they can.

Because of this place, there are too many rednecks at the bottom.

Poor and bad-tempered, the key is not educated.

Sometimes when the brain is hot, revenge can be done afterwards.

The key is not to ban guns, and it is not illegal to take a gun on the street.

For this reason, compared to other regions, the police in Texas are relatively friendly.

After chatting with John IV for a few more words, the hunting rendezvous point arrived.

When they arrived, there were already many people.

Twenty or thirty vehicles, forty or fifty people, dozens of dogs, even two police cars and some Texas police officers.

It's normal for the police to show up.

Otherwise, it's so late, so many people are holding guns and driving cars.

Those who know know that they are going to hunt wolves.

People who don't know probably thought it would be a coup d'état.
With the police accompanying, the situation is different.

And you can also supervise and monitor a little bit, so that these people don't shoot indiscriminately.

After waiting for about half an hour, everyone arrived.

There are a total of fifteen farms nearby, and there are 55 cowboys with good marksmanship.

In addition, five professional hunters were invited, as well as the dogs brought by everyone.

Added up mighty, drove more than 30 vehicles, set off under the leadership of professional hounds and hunters.

However, wolf hunting is not that simple, and sometimes it is luck.

One night, a few hours down.

Didn't find the Druid Peak wolf pack that was in the news.

Only two other small wolf packs and some coyotes were found.

These unlucky people became scapegoats.

Under the firepower that can fight a small fortified battle, they naturally rushed to the street.

At three o'clock in the middle of the night, the hunting activities had to stop.

Because after searching and chasing, I went to the next county.

You can't go there, it's considered a trespass of some sort unless you've been told in advance.

Maybe even eat the guns of the policemen next door.

Therefore, the hunting activities came to an end.

Everyone went back to their respective homes, those with wives went home to hug their wives, and those without wives went home to hug themselves.

Several people in the Smith Farm, the father and son of Little John did not gain anything, and the one who gained the most was Abel.

Alone, he killed two Mexican wolves and three coyotes.

Is it Abel's marksmanship?
No, he has the money ability.

These unlucky ghosts had their legs broken or their ability to move under the marksmanship of a few sharpshooter bodyguards.

Then Abel followed the hound to repair the gun and took down the prey.

So good marksmanship, strong skills, super soldier king and so on are all false.

Can you be as strong as Superman?

cannot?Then you are not as strong as a capitalist with the ability to make money!

He is as strong as Superman, but he is often crushed in the hands of the capitalist Baiteman.

When everyone returned to Smith Farm, it was daylight.

Abel didn't bother his parents, just found something to eat, and went straight to bed after eating.

It was noon when he woke up, and Alexander had left to continue his great career in Fort Worth.

On Abel's side, he had a meal with Emily and coaxed his mother for a while.

In the afternoon, his convoy left Smith Farm directly.

The target is Houston.

Houston is located in Harris County, Texas, which is the third largest county in the United States.

At the same time, this city is also the largest city in Texas and the fourth largest city in the United States.

From Smith Farm, it takes about 270 miles to drive.

At this distance, you can go to Fort Worth Dallas Airport and fly directly to one of the three airports in Houston.

But on a whim, he wanted to take a look at the scenery of Texas along the way.

Abel calculated the distance, and it took about four hours to drive.

If you can arrive before dark, you can start directly by car.

Seven cars in all, including Abel and David Jones, and the bodyguard team.

A convoy of 21 people drove for more than four hours.

Before five o'clock in the afternoon, he arrived in the largest city in Texas.

It is the largest economic center along the Gulf of Mexico, and the city was named after Sam Houston, the then General of the Republic of Texas.

Houston is known worldwide for its energy sources (especially oil), aviation industry, and canals.

The Port of Houston is also the sixth largest port in the world and the busiest port in the United States.

The strength of Texas can be seen from the fact that the Fortune 500 headquarters is second only to New York City.

After arriving, Abel sent the motorcade directly to the Oak River community in downtown Houston.

His grandfather, Alex Smith, and grandmother, Arya Smith, lived here.

This community is a high-end community in Houston, surrounded by small villas in the city center.

When the convoy arrives,

It is already 05:30 in the afternoon.

Alex's bodyguards were startled when Abel's motorcade pulled up near the door.

Abel asked Edward to negotiate in the past, and Alex's bodyguard soon confirmed that it was Abel who had arrived.

After making sure it was safe, Abel got out of the car.

As soon as he got out of the car, he walked inside and shouted loudly:
"Dear Alex and Arya, my dear grandpa and grandma, your grandson is here!!"

There was such a big movement at the door, of course Alex and Arya had already received reports from the bodyguards.

The old couple walked out with smiles on their faces.

When they came out, they saw Abel walking into the courtyard.

"Oh, here comes the little bastard. I hope you don't cut down your grandpa's tree this time!" Alex said happily.

"Haha~" Arya was also very happy to see her grandson coming. "Yake, don't keep talking about it. Abel was still young, and you told the story."

The old couple were talking about when Abel was about ten years old.

The Alexander family, come here to spend Christmas with old father and mother.

On Christmas Eve, the happy Alex told his grandson about the story of the falling cherry axe.

At that time, Abel took it seriously and ran to cut trees in the middle of the night.

As a result, he couldn't find a cherry tree, so he randomly picked a pleasing one in the courtyard and chopped it down.

The next day, Alex and his wife saw their precious grandson pulling them to see a small gardening-grade oak tree that had been pulled into the living room.

God, that's the short oak that Alex bought and planted for $[-]
What can Alex do?

Forgive Abel, of course.

It's just that this matter has been often used by the old guy to make fun of his grandson since then.

Facing Alex's ridicule, Abel responded with a smile:

"Ha~ I heard from my mother that you planted a lot of black walnut trees, grandpa. Since you said so, I'll see if they can hold my falling cherry axe."

Alex suddenly changed his color. This is because he spent tens of thousands of dollars last year.

A few specially selected black walnut trees with good appearance and horticultural grade.

It has been planted for almost a year, and it looks very beautiful in the garden.

The old man usually likes to drink tea and read books down there, but he can't let Abel kill him.

Alex quickly changed the topic: "Ahem~Okay, don't mention these embarrassing things about your childhood, come in. Also, Anthony, go and help Abel's entourage arrange parking and resting places."

In the latter sentence, Alex spoke to his own bodyguard.

Anthony, the bodyguard whom Abel also knew, smiled and nodded as he walked back.

Abel gestured to Edward to obey.

Abel himself entered the house with his grandparents.

This house was built in 1947.

It was built by Alexander's grandfather when Alex decided to retire at the age of 60.

The old couple came to live here.

They also occasionally go to Dallas to live for a while, but they live here at least three-quarters of the year.

This is also the best house in the city for the Smith family.

Abel remembered that the house covered an area of ​​about [-] square feet.

The construction area is only more than 5000 square feet, and five-sixths of the land are courtyards, gardens, swimming pools and the like.

Coupled with the fact that Houston has the most advanced medical technology in the United States and is the world's number one medical city, it is the best place to retire here.

The arrival of the grandson made the old couple obviously very happy.

When Abel came in, he had already seen some things he loved to eat when he was a child on the table in the living room.

Don't believe that set of Americans, you will be kicked out by your parents as a self-reliant thing.

Americans are the same as gnawing on the old, and Americans will also spoil their children and grandchildren.

The elite class, even more so.

Those who really turn [-] and need to be self-reliant are either the bottom white people in the slums.

They really can't afford to support or support their children.

Or it's Lao Mo and Lao Hei.

Old Mo is fine, generally because he is not capable enough, so he asks his children to go out and fight early.

Hehe, the lack of a father is almost a common feature of this ethnic group in the United States.

The family is incomplete, and the family basically relies on the mother's part-time job or welfare subsidies for a living.

Don't fight on your own, plan to wait at home to die?

The Smiths were clearly elite, though not the most elite.

But it's not bad in Texas, plus the population has always been thin.

Alex has no brothers, but a sister.Alexander had no brothers, not even sisters.

Abel originally had an older brother, but he died when he was two years old, and there are no other brothers and sisters behind him.

For such an only seedling, the love of the family is naturally poured into him.

This may be the case, Abel's original body was not deeply obsessed with other aspects.

But when it comes to relatives and parents and elders, he is very stubborn.

So much so that when Abel merged with the soul of the original body, he completely took over this part.

This also makes the current Abel have no grudges against the Alex couple and the Alexander couple.

What's more, he grew up in the celestial dynasty, and the celestial dynasty values ​​filial piety.

He also doesn't think it's wrong to be filial to his parents and have a good relationship with his parents and elders.

So it was very harmonious.

He soon had a warm and pleasant chat with Alex and his wife, who hadn't seen each other for a long time.
