Happy Tycoon

In the evening, the Jones brothers lived in the guest room on the first floor, and Yang Jing's bedroom was on the second floor.

It may be because of the change of place, Yang Jing, who usually doesn't recognize the bed very much, is rarely able to sleep tonight. I fell asleep in a daze until after two o'clock, and I didn't sleep well.

In the middle of the night, Yang Jing even heard the Jones brothers get up twice, and they went out to see if there was any problem with the house.

The heavy snow was so heavy that, in the words of the Jones Brothers, even they rarely saw such heavy snow. In order to avoid the heavy snow from crushing the house, the two of them even stepped on a ladder to scrape the snow off the roof once at night, and tossed for nearly an hour.

Yang Jing was also very satisfied with this. In this modern society, there are really not many young Americans who are so committed and willing to endure hardships, but the Jones Brothers still maintain that relatively simple style, which is really rare.

When I woke up the next morning, the snow was much lighter, but I still persisted. Standing in front of the window of the bedroom on the second floor and looking out, the whole world was white, the pastures in the distance and the original There are still green farms, but no other colors can be seen at this time, and the city of Great Falls farther away cannot be seen at all under this weather.

In such heavy snow, it is not bad to be able to see at most one kilometer. Except for the Missouri River, which has not been frozen yet, is still flowing and steaming outwards, there is almost nothing to be seen. other colors.

Yang Jing put on his clothes and walked downstairs slowly. It may be because they got up twice last night, and one of them was busy scraping the snow off the roof. Brother Jones didn't get up and was still asleep.

Yang Jing pushed open the door, and the cold wind that rushed towards him made him shiver involuntarily.

However, this kind of wind is different from the knife-like wind yesterday evening. Although the wind is very cold, it is extremely humid. Taking a breath, the whole lungs feel very comfortable.

The Missouri River, about 50 meters away from the door of the house, is like a fairy river. The whole river is steaming upwards, which is a unique view of rivers that have not yet frozen in winter.

Looking up at the sky, the sky is still overcast, just as Michael Jones judged yesterday, it seems that this snow cannot be finished in one day.

The snow on the ground was already nearly half a meter deep. If it weren't for the porch at the door, the door might not even be open at this time. But even if there is a porch, at this time the side of the porch near the outside is covered with 20 to 30 centimeters of snow.

The Ford pickup truck of the Jones brothers did not drive into the garage yesterday, but parked directly outside. At this time, the pickup truck was completely unrecognizable, just a big snow bump in the courtyard.

With such a thick snow, Yang Jing didn't have the heart to go out for a walk. After sweeping the snow in the porch with the broom placed at the door, he did some activities under the porch before going into the room and starting to make breakfast. .

The breakfast is very simple, oatmeal and rice porridge, plus a few small cold dishes and a few fried eggs, and the bread can be eaten with a little heating in the microwave.

As soon as the eggs were fried, Yang Jing heard the faint ringtone of the mobile phone. He touched his trouser pocket and found that it was not his mobile phone. Then he looked up. Roy looked like he hadn't woken up, and he was holding a mobile phone in his pajamas while answering. One side walked out.

Hmm. Me and Michael will be back before noon, don't worry. Love you

After hanging up the phone, Roy's nose moved, and then he saw the breakfast on the dining table, and said with a smile, Good morning Albert, you got up really early, and even breakfast is ready.

Yang Jing smiled and asked, It's not that I got up early, but that you two were too busy last night, so it's normal to sleep a little longer in the morning.

Just as he was talking, Michael also yawned and walked out of the guest room. It seemed that not only his brother Roy was awakened by the phone call just now, but even Michael could not escape.

Hurry up and wash up, and then eat, or the meal will be cold in a while.

The two brothers walked into the bathroom and began to wash up, and walked out full of energy after a while.

The three sat at the dining table and began to communicate while eating.

The snow was too heavy. Michael and I were worried about the roof of the house, so we got up at four o'clock in the morning to clear the snow from the roof. In this way, even if the snow continued, it would not cause any danger to the house. gone.

Michael ate a fried egg in one bite, took a sip of water and said, I looked outside just now, and the snow was much lighter, and it was daytime, so the safety of the house is basically no problem. Albert , your fried eggs are delicious.

Roy Jones said while eating: Michael and I are going back this morning. My mother called me just now and said that there are several houses in Alm that have been crushed. Michael and I need to go to help So I will leave here with Michael after I have a full meal. You must pay attention to safety here. If the snow continues to grow, Michael and I will come back in the evening to help you clean the snow from the roof clean.

Okay, you go and do your work. You don't have to worry about me here. If the snow is relatively heavy, I can also clean the snow on the roof. The snow on the roof of this slope is easy to clean. I am alone. It can be done.

Well, if there is anything, you can call me directly. I will call Erwin and Oscar later and ask them to come and do some work for you.

The Erwin and Oscar mentioned by Roy Jones are two other farmers hired by Zhao Meng. Erwin's name is Erwin Baldwin, and Oscar's name is Oscar Robertson. Both of them are farmers in this neighborhood, and like the Jones brothers, they are dedicated to working for others. It's just that they're both married with wives and children, so they can't spend the night out like the Jones brothers.

Breakfast was finished soon, and after they were full, the Jones brothers entered the guest room and changed into warm work clothes after a while.

Albert, Bob has a snow plow here, which is attached to the front of the tractor nose. We often have heavy snow in winter, so almost every farm and ranch is equipped with such a snow plow. We don’t have anything to do on the farm right now, and we don’t need to clear the snow from the farm, so I’m going to take this tractor out in a while and clear the snow off the road at the same time.”

Yang Jing nodded and said, That's no problem, just go ahead and do it.

Americans have done a good job at this point, especially in such remote areas, where almost all the snow on the roads is cleared spontaneously by local residents. The United States is known as a country that lives on tires, and every household has a car, so once it snows, clearing the snow on the roads will become the top priority of the locals, otherwise they can’t even drive the car, then there is really nothing Can't do it anymore.

Michael Jones took a broom and began to sweep the snow around the pickup truck, while Roy Jones walked towards the agricultural machinery warehouse next to him, stepping on the snow covering half of his thigh.

Yang Jing didn't follow, but after waiting for a while, he heard the roar of a diesel engine in the warehouse. After waiting for a while, Yang Jing saw a big guy slowly driving out of the warehouse.

This is definitely a big guy, with a length of five and a half meters and a height of nearly three meters. What surprised Yang Jing the most was that the nose of this huge tractor was also driven by the rear four wheels.

Michael, who had already cleaned the pickup truck out of the snow, said with a smile while cleaning the snow particles on his body: This is a big guy, isn't it? This big guy was asked for Bob's opinion last spring. , Bob paid for us to buy. John Deere 6J-1654 tractor, great big guy that makes our jobs easier.

John Deere is currently the most famous agricultural machinery manufacturer in the world. This 1654 tractor is also a work with very mature technology. Usually the tractor head has four tires, but under heavy load or today's special road conditions, the rear A pair of drive wheels can be added to keep the tires gripping. This big guy has 165 horsepower and can pull up to six tons, making it our farmer's favorite machine.

Look at the snow plow installed by Roy. Install this thing, and then use this big guy to push it and walk along the road. The road is basically cleaned up, which is very convenient.

Yang Jing felt a little itchy looking at this big guy, even though it was just a tractor, it was more comfortable than most so-called luxury cars. In addition to the top and bottom of the cab, the other four sides are closed with high-strength plexiglass. The interior space is very spacious, and it also has its own heating and cooling air conditioner.

Roy wanted Yang Jing to see this big guy's ability to clear snow, so he put down the steel plate in front of the snow plow, but not at the bottom, it was about seven or eight centimeters away from the ground, and then stepped on it Accelerate, and the exhaust pipe standing above the right side of the cab suddenly spewed out a faint blue smoke, and easily pushed the snow that was more than half a meter deep forward.

Because the steel plate in front of the snow plow is more than five meters long and inclined, the snow is pushed by the steel plate, and the snow in the area about five meters wide in front of the tractor will be plowed aside along the inclined steel plate. After the tractor came over, behind it was a five-meter-wide clean ground.

If this thing is on the road, it can clean the five-meter-wide road at one time, because there are two constantly rotating sweepers hanging behind the tractor head, which can clean the remaining snow on the road directly. clean up.

This thing is indeed an artifact for clearing snow on the road!
