The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 183 182. Lin Feng ascends (Part )

At this time, a middle-aged rancher sitting in the corner frowned. He said with some confusion and dissatisfaction: "Lin Feng, your idea is very bold and creative. But have you ever thought about it? How difficult would it be to implement such a plan? How much effort and time would it take?”

"And why should I believe that your idea can lead us out of this predicament?"

Lin Feng smiled slightly, having already expected that someone would ask such a question.

After all, I am too young.

He explained patiently: "What I want to say is that the implementation of this plan does require some effort and time. However, if we don't take action, what awaits will only be a worse ending. It won't be long before developers come back." , if you are willing to sell your land cheaply, then of course you can do nothing."

He glanced around and continued: "I know this plan is not easy to implement, but I believe that as long as the pastoralists unite and work together, we will be able to overcome the difficulties. After all, this is our common home and future, and we have the responsibility and It is our duty to protect it.”

After saying that, the room fell into silence again.

However, the silence this time was different from the silence before, but it had a somewhat heavy and thoughtful flavor.

Everyone was silently thinking about Lin Feng's words and considering the feasibility of this plan.

Although they were let go in the end, it undoubtedly gave the pastoralists a disincentive.

The State Office is also cooperating with a wave of public opinion calling for the abolition of the Animal Husbandry Commission through legislation. Their methods are much richer than those of the cowboys who are straightforward and like to use guns.

The intention of the State Administration is obvious: to weaken the credibility of the Animal Husbandry Committee, guide public opinion to declare its illegal status, and ultimately achieve the goal of completely abolishing the Animal Husbandry Committee, and then let the state police take over the security of pastoral areas.

Fred Cunningham was the first to speak, "Lin, but our pastoral area already has such an organization. It is the livestock police, which is the Strangler Self-Defense Group founded by Ben Grando."

"Do we need another livestock police force?"

Fred Sr.’s words resonated with many people.

Although this did not happen due to pressure from the Livestock Commission, government officials used many methods to limit the power of the livestock police in pastoral areas, such as excessive public opinion supervision through the pervasive media.

Lin Feng nodded. The functions of the "emergency response team" he envisioned did overlap with those of the livestock police. However, in recent years, the state government has been suppressing this civilian team in pastoral areas.

Using the Internet, which cowboys are not good at, to discredit the image of pastoralists, outsiders see them as a group of rough and impulsive primitive people, while politicians stand on the stage of justice.

Therefore, it is now necessary to establish a new team affiliated with the Animal Husbandry Committee. The livestock police will continue to live in the sun, and the matters in the shadows will be left to this new team.

Not only that speeding incident, the state police jointly enforced the law in pastoral areas some time ago. The speeding gang was not caught, but a few livestock policemen were arrested.

I heard Jasmine say before that the real estate company that is about to enter the Montana pastoral area has a great background. They are very good at playing with power and want to replicate what happened in Idaho in Montana.

Lin Feng believes that this is one of the things politicians are doing to help developers smoothly enter Montana pastoral areas. Safety issues are very necessary.

Some time ago, a member was caught by the state police for speeding and made a big deal about it.

After listening to Lin Feng's statement, even the experienced Hans fell into deep thought.

Lin Feng was quietly waiting for their response and decision.

Dick Lambert was the first to raise his hand, and people were surprised.

"Dick?"

"You???" Because Old Dick has always been a stable person, he often plays the role of peacemaker, but this time he was the first to raise his hand to support Lin Feng's radical ideas.

Dick put out the cigarette in his hand, "It's time for the ranchers to make some changes. In the decades since Ben Grando's death, people seem to have forgotten the temper of the cowboys."

"This is a war, and it's time for people to relearn the ways of our old cowboys."

"Don't forget that we are cowboys, and the land in our hands is the inheritance left by our ancestors. Are you thinking of handing it over to others?"

"We're getting older, we're getting hesitant, we're getting hesitant, so we need young people to break the ice."

Old Dick murmured to himself, "I swear to make my mind clearer, my heart more loyal, my hands more diligent, and my body stronger."

"For my family, my pastorate, my world."

This was the declaration of participants when the Animal Husbandry Committee was founded. The old cowboys at the scene chanted it in a low voice along with Dick. Lin Feng was a little moved by the scene.

Dick Sr. continued: "I would love to have my son Cassidy Lambert be a part of the new organization and give that kid some exercise."

At this time, a trembling figure stood up, his voice was hoarse but full of power.

Lin and others looked up and found old McClun in Tranquility Grass.

“Just like how we hung cattle thieves back then, we will hang anyone who wants to take away our land!”

Old MacLean was Ben Grando's most capable general at the time. He once rode alone into the cattle rustlers' camp and dragged their leader out and hanged him in front of the town hall.

It can be seen that he is very prestigious in the pastoral area, and those unruly old cowboys have also restrained themselves.

Then it was Fred, "You are right, my old man, the pastoral area does not need those guys in suits to interfere, this is our land, our war!"

Then Fred raised his hand.

Then a few more raised their hands, and soon they became one, and they were all willing to give out a young man from each family.

However, there is an important issue. The Otto family did not join the Livestock Committee, so no one from them is present today.

This is also one of the hidden dangers. Old John owns one-third of the land in the entire pastoral area of ​​River Valley Town.

Everyone knew that John Otto had a close relationship with the city hall and was also interested in cooperating with developers to develop pastoral areas, so they instinctively put the Otto family on the opposite side.

Lin Feng looked at the people present and felt a warm current in his heart.

Although these old cowboys are a little older, their passion and determination are still as strong as ever.

Lin Feng was naturally elected as the leader of the new organization. He would personally select the members and find time to go to Otto Ranch to meet with Old John.

Vaguely, Lin Feng had a premonition that there would be a fight between him and the big landowners in Hehe Town. Because the interests were in opposite directions, this was inevitable.

Old John intends to enter the political arena, so solving the pastoral development issue has become his pledge. It is obvious that he will stand on the other side of the ranchers, and will no longer be the one who followed Ben Grando to fight against the cattle thieves. By.

Regardless, the war has begun.
