Little Life on An American Ranch

Back at the ranch, Zhang Jialiang and the others have already returned, and they are sitting in the restaurant eating.

Seeing Jian Heng came back, Feng Sanzhu asked, "Boss, have you had dinner yet?"

"Not yet!" Jian Heng's stomach started to growl when he heard him mentioning dinner, so he rubbed his stomach and said to Feng Sanzhu.

Feng Sanzhu immediately stood up when he heard this, ready to help Jian Heng serve the meal.

The meal was placed on the table, Jian Heng hurriedly took two steps: "Okay, you sit down and eat your meal, I'll do such trivial things myself!"

The staple food in the evening is vegetable porridge and flower rolls, with two dishes, one is green pepper eggs, and the other is braised pork.

Most of the people in this group broke off the flower rolls and ate them with braised pork. Almost no one touched the green pepper eggs.

After serving the rice by himself, Jian Heng sat down next to the pot, took a sip of the porridge, then reached for a flower roll, put a piece of green pepper egg in his mouth.

After eating a few times, Jian Heng understood why no one likes to eat this plate of eggs with green peppers. Compared with the eggs from the previous day, the eggs are obviously not so fragrant, and they are a bit dry when fried, I don’t know How to describe it well, anyway, it means that: it is not delicious.

In addition, the green pepper is not too good, not only is it not spicy, but also has a taste of green vegetables, which means it is a vegetable pepper. The eggs are not tasty, and the spiciness cannot be tasted. It is not unreasonable for this dish to be completely cold.

After chewing a few mouthfuls, Jian Heng swallowed the porridge and asked Feng Sanzhu, "Why did you change the chicken?"

"I finished the eggs last time. These are the eggs I just bought! The old eggs happened to be sold out when I went to buy them the day before yesterday. Brother Changshan bought some of these eggs and brought them back. Hold them until they are big. As soon as the side eggs arrive, they will call us to get them," Feng Sanzhu explained.

Even if it is a foreign egg, it depends on how it is fed. If it is fed all the time, the egg will be big and the portion will be sufficient, but the taste will be a bit worse. If it is free-range eggs, the taste will be natural It is better than the one fed with feed. The reason is the same as that of raising domestic chickens, and there is nothing much to say.

The eggs were originally laid by big and soaked foreign chickens, and the feeding was sloppy, so it is reasonable that the eggs are not tasty.

Everyone is used to eating free-range eggs. Now when they suddenly eat this kind of feed eggs, their mouths will naturally become a little picky. Every time they eat one by one, they will be different. Naturally, the chopsticks will not greet the plate.

Hearing Feng Sanzhu's explanation,

Jian Heng finally understood that the eggs that Zhao Changshan drove to buy some time ago were gone, so he first got this batch of eggs and came over for a while.

"Next time I don't have and don't want this kind of egg, it's too unpalatable," Jian Heng said.

"Well, I see. Brother Changshan also said after tasting it yesterday that he will never buy this kind of egg again." Feng Sanzhu replied with a smile.

Now Jian Heng didn't eat the plate of scrambled eggs, and imitated everyone else to eat braised pork wrapped in flower rolls.

"By the way, boss, didn't you come back a long time ago? Why did you come back so long after us?" Zhang Jialiang asked.

Upon hearing this question, the two sisters, Barley and Wheat, couldn't help but prick up their ears.

"Have you bought all the ammunition?" Jian Heng didn't answer, but asked about the ammunition first.

Zhang Jialiang nodded and said: "I bought it back, went to three stores, and bought thirty-four boxes!"

"So many?!" Jian Heng was taken aback by them.

After recovering, he took out the wallet from his pocket: "Give me all the tickets, and then I will exchange the money for you."

"We didn't pay the money that Barley and Wheat paid..." Zhang Jialiang saw Jian Heng looking at him, and pointed at Barley and Wheat.

Hearing this, Jian Heng said to Zhang Jialiang: "Look at how promising you are. After you go out, you still let the lady pay for things! Do you look like a man?"

The two sisters were used to Jian Heng's way of speaking, so they didn't argue with him about women's rights. They just pretended not to hear them and continued to deal with the meat in their hands.

Seeing that Jian Heng was still admonishing Zhang Jialiang, Damai finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"It's convenient for one person to settle the bill!" Damai stood up after speaking, and took out a stack of bills from a large box next to him and put them in front of Jian Heng.

"It's all here!" After speaking, Damai sat down.

Seeing the list, Jian Heng subconsciously took it over and looked at it. While looking at it, he calculated the total price. After the list was finished, the total price was almost calculated, and the fractions were rounded up. Of course, the fractions were wiped out. It's too stingy, Jian Heng gave about ten dollars more, and made up fifty dollars.

"Here!" Jian Heng counted out the bills from Qianbali, tapped them and put them in front of Damai.

Damai asked Jian Heng a little strangely: "Is it out after reading it once?"

Seeing her looking at him as if she was looking at something miraculous, Jian Heng replied: "Or else?"

Is it difficult to calculate all the addition and subtraction within the hundredth place, and round it up on my own side? I really thought that my buddy received basic education in the United States, and the addition and subtraction of hundreds of digits depends on a calculator? Isn't Jian Heng learning for nothing in the nine-year compulsory education in China?

Mai Mai couldn't bear it at this moment, and asked Jian Heng: "You came back so long earlier than us, and you came back a few hours later at the latest, so why don't you go...".

Jian Heng didn't understand what she meant, and immediately replied: "Your brain is not healthy, where did I go?"

Speaking of this, Jian Heng said to Zhang Jialiang: "Oh, by the way, if your drone came back, it would now be evidence for the police!"

"Ah! Didn't you say that the police don't want it?" Zhang Jialiang's face immediately collapsed when he heard it, and he was a little bit reluctant to part with his girl-picking weapon.

"The police didn't want it before, but now they want it! The gang of cattle thieves were lured out by drones. Now this group of habitual thieves has a clue, and it is not known whether they have been caught. But the specific information of the personnel, the police The sides should be almost done!"

Having said that, Jian Heng talked about how he received a call from a cow thief and how he caught two idiots. Of course, some parts of the truth have to be erased.

When Zhang Jialiang heard that his boss had caught two cattle thieves with his bare hands, he immediately said with regret: "Boss, remember to ask me for things like this in the future, so I can talk to you when I go to the bar to pick up girls." Say!"

At this time, Damai was not as excited as the others, but said to Jian Heng: "Catching thieves is the job of the police, you just need to tell the police what you know, why put yourself in danger? Personal heroism is very dangerous, do you know that, what if it is someone else’s trap? If they don’t want the drone at all, how about sniping you when you go to set up the drone?”

Hearing Damai's words, Jian Heng's heart trembled, but his face didn't show, he smiled and defended himself: "I see, I also heard it from the phone, the caller is a bit stupid , It’s not like a veteran would do this!”

Zhang Jialiang was a little dissenting when he heard Damai's words. He curled his lips and said, "Go to the police for this matter? Which of the few policemen in the town can solve the case? Let them set up a roadblock and check for dangerous driving or something." Okay, expect them to solve the case? If you lose all the cattle, they may not be able to catch the thief!"

"That's the police's business!" Da Mai said.

"Okay, I'll be more careful next time"

Seeing Damai's cold face, Jian Heng was moved for no reason. When he came to the United States, especially after leaving old Anders, Jian Heng rarely felt that someone cared about him so sincerely. As for Zhang Jialiang and Luo Min, both belong to the masters who want Jian Heng to worry about, and the chance of caring about Jian Heng is almost equal to zero.

"Remember from now on, you are not a policeman!" Damai sighed.

For Americans, solving crimes is the job of the police, and the most important thing for a citizen to do when he encounters a gangster is to protect his own life, not to act bravely. Of course, it would be better if you can act bravely, but Americans do not advocate doing what Jian Heng does today. They think that the most correct thing is to give all the clues to the police and let the police do it.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Huang Xiaodong opened his mouth and said, "How about tomorrow, let's go fishing in the river. I heard that there is a river fifty or sixty kilometers away from here that is full of Asian carp! Maybe we can do it tomorrow night." Get a pot of fresh wild fish soup to satisfy your hunger!"

"Fishing is fine, but eat it, those fish taste different from the fish we eat!" Feng Sanzhu smiled at Huang Xiaodong.

Huang Xiaodong was curious, so he asked: "Why is it different, they are all fish, and they look the same!"

Feng Sanzhu said: "It's really different. The fishy smell we eat in China or sold in Chinese supermarkets has little fishy smell. Once the seasoning is added, the fishy smell is almost gone. But the carp in the river here in the United States is not good. No matter how you do it, there will be an indelible stench, which is very unpalatable! It is said that the heavy metals in the fish body exceed the standard. Anyway, the Asian carp in the wild rivers in the United States is extremely fishy. If you don’t believe it If so, try grilling one when you go fishing, and make sure you can spit out the acid in your stomach after taking a bite.”

"What else?" Jian Heng heard for the first time that the Asian carp in the United States is more smelly than the Asian carp in Asia.

Feng Sanzhu nodded and said: "I ate it myself. I ate it with chopsticks, and finally threw away all the remaining fish. After I ate it once, my brain was full of that smell. It's not fishy, ​​anyway. It smells bad, I have been suffering for several days and always feel that taste in my mouth, but it makes me sick to death!".

While chatting about the fish, several people were eating. After the meal, everyone ran away for a day. Zhao Wei finally mentioned a word of shooting, but no one responded, so everyone went back to their rooms. sleep.
