Alpine pasture

Chapter 321 Demonstrators

For the next two or three days, Kung Fu Ju An spent on the ranch and two old men, Thomas Lawrence, preparing the fence for the new ranch. The news that the new ranch was going to be built quickly spread in the town, and some people who lived by doing odd jobs were happy. Up, Ju An must have a lot of manpower to do this, so many fences provide them with a lot of opportunities, at least a few months of work.Clever cowboys began to inquire when the ranch was looking for someone, and wanted to get a seat on the ranch. The salary of the ranch was too attractive.

After signing the document, a check was sent out at the same time, and more than 2 acres of land came under the name of the Xishuihe Ranch. The next job for Ju An was to write the check. The lumber needed to build the fence on the ranch , Not to mention the town of Lewis, several small lumber mills in nearby towns have begun to produce Juan’s fences. The thick piles with ocher-colored bark are covered with anti-corrosion materials, and half of them have to be driven into the ground. A small circle of horizontal rails is erected between each pile, providing work for at least five or six small processing factories for several months.

A new cowboy dormitory has also begun to be built. This time, the cowboys did not help, but a small construction company that built houses for the community. A total of seventeen or eight people have good craftsmanship. As long as the new community in Ju'an is made of wood The houses are basically from the hands of several people, and the quality is trustworthy.

Early in the morning, where Ju An started construction, not far from his new home, he drove a pickup truck directly to the construction site. Today, the first pile is to be laid. Thomas and Lawrence will be there. Of course, Ju An is the rancher.

When we arrived at the place where the construction started, piles of wooden fences had already been piled up in the new place, several pile drivers were already in place, and all the construction workers were also present. Not only these but also some uninvited people also came to the new pasture On the side, but they are all carrying slogans, those who came to oppose Ju'an's purchase of a new site, and those who came to save the wild horses, um, there are some: "Let the wild horses have a home!". A horse's head is also drawn next to the slogan "Don't take our land".Of course, the more sensational ones include "Save us!", "We are going extinct in this country!" and a series of various slogans.Sixty or seventy people in their 30s and [-]s don’t know the organization that came out to protect this and that. Anyway, there are many such groups in the United States, and they don’t understand everything to make way for economic development. Moreover, there are at least several million wild horses in the United States, and Ju An was stunned to see which point was going to be extinct.

Seeing that Ju An got off the pickup and said something to the workers, the protesters recognized it, and they were sure that the black-haired man was the rancher, and the shouting became louder, and there were even people who attacked.Ju Anli ignored them and glanced at the boundary of the ranch. There was a white spot every three meters away. This was the place where the stakes were driven.

Ju An glanced at the protesters standing on the road, and walked straight to Thomas and Lawrence: "How are the preparations, if all is well, let's start work!".

Lawrence nodded and replied: "Everything is fine, just waiting for you to come!".Then he waved to the workers, and the workers stood up against the piles in twos and erected them on the white spots. Several crawler pile drivers had already started up, stretching out their big rams, touch!bump!bump!There was a sound, and the wooden stakes that the workers were stabilizing stretched into the ground little by little. In less than 2 minutes, a wooden stake was driven into the ground, and the height of about 1.3 meters was exposed outside.

Next is the second stake. Thomas and Lawrence are going to drive the stake down while the temperature is high. If it is snowing, it will be troublesome to drive the stake into the frozen ground.

The voices of the protesters on the roadside became louder and louder. Lawrence glanced at him and turned to Ju An and said, "Ann! Don't worry about them being a bunch of idiots!".

Ju An smiled and looked at the demonstrators who were standing outside the ranch and said to Lawrence, "Do I need to care about them? You see that they also understand the law and stand outside my place to demonstrate and let them demonstrate. Okay, how about it embodies the country's democracy? I don't know if I brought enough water, by the way, I should notify the little girls in the town and let them come over to sell drinks. Thirsty, this is really good business!".

The two old cowboys, Lawrence and Thomas, both laughed when they heard Ju'an's words: "You're still worried that the demonstrators are thirsty! I didn't see that they all came by car, they already brought enough water to eat, these people It's not the first time I've done this, with experience!".

"No one from the town will come to protest against me." Ju An thought about it and looked at the protesting crowd.

Thomas glanced at the crowd: "No! They are all raw faces. They are probably full-fed ruffians from the city. Whoever has this spare time in the town, all the idlers come here to work."The old man pointed at the workers with a smile, and then pouted his lips. What the old cowboys disliked most was those who did not work and interfere with others all day: "Today protest against the killing of sheep, tomorrow protest against the killing of cattle, not to kill cattle and sheep What do these idiots eat, it's better to find some work to do with this skill than anything else."

Ju An smiled and continued to watch the pile driver drive the wood piles. After a while, he heard the sound of a police car. He looked up and saw two police cars in the town coming over. Not far away, they stopped on the side of the road and came down seven or eight. A policeman who got out of the car and didn't move, just stood beside the car and watched the demonstrators.

The sheriff in the town walked over to Ju An and shook hands and said, "How is it? They didn't make trouble."

"No! It's all good," Ju An said with a smile, then glanced at the demonstrators, guessing that it would be a little tired to shout, and his voice was much lower: "Why are you here, are you afraid of causing conflict? ".

"I was afraid that the demonstrators would be irrational, rushed into the ranch and was beaten by the cowboys and rushed over to maintain it. As soon as I received a call from the Bozeman Police Department, I rushed over," the sheriff said with a smile.

Ju An thought for a while and said, "They all come from Bozeman? It's not that close, but these guys are really strong!"

"These guys have been protesting for a year, and they've been running all over Montana. Last year, they went to Helena to protest the ranch takeover. They rushed into the ranch and were beaten up by a group of hot-tempered cowboys. You see Now, learn to be good, there were some media reports at the beginning, and now you see that even the media is not interested," the sheriff said with a smile.

"Rush into other people's pastures, these people are really brave!" Thomas looked at it and said, "It was a good temper, and a bad temper shot directly."After speaking, he patted the revolver hanging on his waist, and Ju An realized that the old man had brought the gun over.

Ju An hurriedly said to the old man: "Come in and beat them out, don't shoot!".Although it is legally allowed to shoot people who enter private territory without the owner's permission, it is not good to be bloody because of protests. Looking at the small bodies of those protesters, it is estimated that the two are tied together. Not the opponents of these cowboys who work all the year round. It's better than marksmanship. Every little cowboy started playing with his father when he was five or six years old. These city boys are more than eight blocks away.

"Just to scare me, just shoot or something," Thomas said with a smile.

A few people chatted with the sheriff for a while, and the sheriff returned to the side of the police car. A group of policemen leaned on the car and stared at the crowd of demonstrators. In the spirit of not moving the enemy, they were lazily saving their physical strength.

After a while, the stakes were laid on the area, and Ju An's group also moved the place and continued to drive the piles. The demonstrators also moved together, and the whole large group of people moved a distance of 800 meters at once.

Until noon, Ju An and Thomas returned home together. Dinah and Lawrence's wife prepared lunch together. Dinah stewed a pot of beef soup, fried rice for a dozen people, put shredded pork and Green beans and so on, and of course some bread. Cowboys can choose what they like to eat. Ju An and Thomas got the food into the car. Teddy was lying at the door and rolling from time to time bored. Dinah's little lion was sleeping. Now, Nini went to school, which made Teddy a little bored. Seeing that Ju An and Thomas were going out, they were trying to follow along with their car.

Ju An had to let Teddy climb into the car. Before the door was closed, Hans and Jinbao also ran over and got into the car body.Taking these three guys to the place where the workers were working, the three animals got out of the car at once. Everyone in the town knew that Ju An raised a brown bear or something. He was very friendly to people and never hurt anyone. Teddy wasn't too scared either.

Seeing that there were more people outside, Teddy became a little happy, stood up and waved to the protesting crowd outside, while Hans and Jinbao were lying in the grass, also staring at the crowd outside.

A big brown bear suddenly silenced the entire protesting crowd. Teddy beckoned and sat down. He was slightly dissatisfied with the lack of response from the crowd. People in the new community rubbed their heads when they saw Teddy, while the little baby They rushed up directly. The group of people outside were not enthusiastic at all. They shouted at the crowd twice. They stood in front of the stake and wanted to shoot the stake. Fortunately, Ju An found out and shouted at Teddy: "Teddy. Don't touch the stakes".

Teddy slapped the slap. Now that he is close to the weight of [-] kilograms, it is not for fun. If you use force, at least the stake can be cracked. Ju An walked over to Teddy and touched his head and said, "This stake can't be used. Play, just play here and don't scare others."After that, I continued to walk to the pickup for lunch.

Hans and Jinbao saw Teddy lying down lazily in the sun, and they also emerged from the grass. Two mountain lions weighing nearly [-] kilograms completely petrified the crowd. A group of people outside The man opened his mouth wide and could not make a sound, watching the three animals lick each other's fur.

The three guys cleaned up each other and lay down on the grass. Teddy was lying with his head facing the crowd. The two Xiaodou's eyes looked at each other from time to time. Hans and Jinbao were more alert. Flicking his tail, he stared at the demonstrators.

While eating, Thomas said to Ju An: "These three are much more useful than those police officers, and they calmed down as soon as they came out."

Lawrence said with a smile: "If you see Teddy in the wild, I guess most people will be scared to pee their pants, and their performance is good." After saying that, he looked at the crowd and laughed.
