Lisco's American Life
550. Rooster's House Repair
Seeing that David spoke eloquently and his face was full of longing for the future, Lisko nodded in agreement. Even if he was left to think about it himself, there was no better way than this.
It can be seen that after several years of accumulation, David's ideas about work have grown much better than before.
"Okay, let's do it. If you have any financial difficulties, you can come to me."
Lisko made his promise and returned to his castle with a satisfied look.
After a period of production, Brownie finally completed the work of making a specimen of the wild boar's head. He rubbed his waist and bent for a long time, which had caused him to suffer from waist problems.
Looking at the finished product in front of him, his eyes were full of pride. He was old enough, and he had always planned to stop making specimens. Just selling horse gear could already cover his life.
So he has been thinking about retirement.
It is a consolation to his taxidermy career that he can still complete such a large work when he is about to retire.
"Boy, your specimen has been made. You can come and take it away."
Brownie's voice was filled with fatigue as he called Rooster.
The rooster immediately put down what he was busy with, drove his pickup truck, and drove all the way to the specimen production site.
"Wow, cool, so beautiful."
He looked at the huge work in front of him. All the meat of the wild boar's head had been removed, and the fur had been specially processed and draped over the bones. Apart from being a little smaller, it looked the same.
The eyeballs were shot into pieces by Charles and Leiter, and Brownie filled them in with ground crystals, making them look very beautiful.
"Brownie, your craftsmanship is great, I like this specimen very much,"
The rooster's face was full of excitement, imagining what this behemoth would look like in his living room. I believe everyone who sees it will be surprised and open their mouths from ear to ear.
"Your materials are also great. After I finished this one, I will completely retire. I am getting older and for the sake of my health, I can no longer do this job in the future. I think this specimen is already my peak."
After lighting his pipe, Brownie sat on a wicker chair on the side, looking at this work with a face full of satisfaction.
"Then I've earned it, right?"
The rooster looked at Brownie, who was not in a very high mood, and joked about it.
"That's right, so do you want to add some money?"
Brownie is an old man, so of course he won't be teased by a rooster with just a few glances, and he will fight back when he opens his mouth.
"You're dreaming."
The two people looked at each other, and their laughter spread far, far away.
After taking the prepared specimen back to the pasture, it once again received the attention of passers-by on the road, but for the rooster, these looks were not an annoyance.
A rancher's achievements are the specimens displayed in the living room. This is also the custom of all ranchers.
It's relatively normal in Garrison, Texas, the place with the most ranches in the United States. Almost every house in Texas has the head of a beast hanging on the wall, with twelve antlers, the head of a black bear, and even a tiger.
Many of them are passed down from ancestors and represent a family's most prominent achievements.
"Rooster."
Wen Liang had been waiting at Rooster's pasture early. He had made an appointment with the other party today and was going to talk about house renovation.
"Wen, haha, look at my trophy."
Rooster got out of the car, hugged him first, and then immediately introduced the specimens on the car.
"Oh, awesome."
Wen Liang didn't know that everyone hunted the wild boar together. He thought it was the rooster who hunted it alone, and couldn't help but curse in his heart.
"The wild boars in this old beauty's house are so big, they are as big as elephants."
"Come on, let's go inside first."
The rooster was very enthusiastic and greeted Wen Liang and walked into the room.
While walking, Wen Liang was still looking at the main facilities of this room, thinking about how to proceed with repairs.
The more I looked at it, the more worried I became. Ever since Rooster's grandfather built this house, it has been repaired countless times. However, with the weather, the sun, and the invasion of time, this house has reached the end of its life. There is nothing
The repairs are worth it.
What made Wen Liang even more speechless was that the floor in the room was cracked.
"Come, have a drink first."
Rooster generously handed over the cup in his hand. As an alcoholic, the most abundant things in his house were various whiskeys and brandies.
"Drinking early in the morning?"
Although Wen Liang has been in the United States for a long time, there are times when he still feels unable to accept the customs here, such as the practice of using wine as daily water.
But the rooster's hospitality was hard to resist, so Wen Liang had no choice but to take it and take a sip.
"Rooster, does this house need repairs?"
After dealing with it for a while, Wen Liang immediately started working on the topic, asking about the cock.
"Yes, I'm planning to get married, so I need to fix it up."
Rooster looked at this house with confused eyes. This house held all the memories of his childhood and adolescence. It was the house where he had lived for more than thirty years. His grandfather, Beau, Maggie, and Colt all lived here.
"We are all old friends, so I just spoke up."
Wen Liang hesitated.
"It's okay, you can just say, we are all friends."
Rooster shifted his gaze to Wen Liang, quietly waiting for his words.
"This house really has no repair value. Even if we try our best to build it, it will soon leak and crack. From my perspective, I still recommend that you tear it down and rebuild it, and build a house with cement exterior walls.
After all, there are often dragon spring winds in Colorado."
Although Lisko had already contracted the cost of this repair, Wen Liang decided to tell the truth to avoid any problems with the house in the future, which would damage the reputation of the construction company.
"Is there no other way?"
Rooster opened his mouth, his eyes full of struggle. He originally meant to repair it and make the house more convenient and stable while retaining most of the decorations. However, his gentle opinion was also very pertinent, with preciousness.
It has happened many times that items have escaped from the room to avoid tornadoes.
Wen Liang shook his head firmly.
"Okay, then do as you say."
Although the rooster was very reluctant to let go, but considering that after getting married, he would have to take his wife and children to avoid tornadoes. When it rained, there were buckets everywhere in the house to collect water, so he decided to rebuild according to Wen Liang's words.
