He's in the west, he's a cowboy

Chapter 194 Paying homage to an old friend

Soon the soup in the pot was cooked. The meat of this kind of fish is very tender and does not need to be simmered for a long time. If you simmer it for a long time, it will become old.

Zhou Zheng picked out the fish meat and threw the fish bones back to continue making soup. The taste of raw and cooked food is naturally different.

Cooked fish will not be as elastic and tender as raw fish, but the fish soaked in fish soup will melt in your mouth and have a rich aroma.

Two completely different tastes of one kind of fish made the three of them enjoy themselves.

"My God, I feel like we can come here more times in the future. This kind of fish is really good." Arthur couldn't help but sigh.

Arthur quickly fell in love with this fish and thought he would come here often in the future. It's not far away anyway.

"This should still be a wasteland." Zhou Zheng looked at the map. Except for the abandoned Plow Village, almost everywhere in the vicinity is no man's land.

"Ambarino is a famous no-man's land. Except for those Indians and some small villages, there are almost no people in this state." Arthur thought for a while and said: "There are so few people in this state, even the governor Not in the state, but in a big house in New York.”

"How do you know so clearly?" John asked curiously: "What's wrong, are you planning to run for governor here?"

"Haha, do you think I compete with cow shit every day like you?" Arthur said disdainfully: "I'm studying now, you know? I read newspapers every day and read some so-called news."

"Oh my god, this is so scary." John looked at Arthur as if he had seen a ghost. Arthur, who loved to learn, was much scarier than the wild wolf.

"Tell me, if I write to the governor now and want to buy this piece of land, will he give me a cheap price?" Zhou Zheng asked out of curiosity.

Anyway, there is no one here, and the governor probably doesn't care. He is probably very happy to sell these wastelands in his eyes and make a fortune.

"Isn't it enough that you already have so much space?" John asked in surprise: "And this place is deserted, why do you want it?"

There is ice and snow all year round here, and there are mountains everywhere, so there is literally nothing to do. John couldn't understand Zhou Zheng's idea.

"Just for this fish. The water quality here is very good. We can raise these fish artificially. I think this thing can make money." Zhou Zheng looked at the sockeye salmon in front of him. This kind of fish is not a cheap commodity in future generations.

Also, this kind of sockeye salmon in later generations is not cheap. Even now, it would be good to raise some artificially here as a special dish in the tavern.

Anyway, Zhou Zheng doesn’t want it anywhere else, just this lake. It shouldn’t cost much.

"Look, this is a capitalist." John shook his head: "Anything I see that I think can make money, I just want to get it all in my hands."

"Hey buddy, don't forget, you are also a capitalist now, you still have shares." Zhou Zheng looked at John with a look of disgust. This guy is so arrogant and proud.

"Haha, I'm laughing so hard. My dear Mr. Marston has suddenly become the person I hate the most." Arthur couldn't bear to see the excitement, holding his belly and bursting into laughter.

"Don't talk nonsense. I don't have any sense of achievement as a capitalist. There are capitalists there who shovel shit for cows every day." John laughed as he spoke. Also, the capitalists there would not get up in the middle of the night and go there in person. Watching the cows in the cattle pen.

After eating the meat, it was time to drink soup. On the cold snowy mountain, a bowl of steaming fish soup made the three of them warm up. The pot of soup was quickly shared by all three of them.

The three of them finished the meal lively around the campfire. Zhou Zheng wrapped the remaining fish and meat in bags and put them in the snow aside. This is a natural refrigerator. You can just take it with you when you leave.

After everything was cleaned up, the three of them sat by the bonfire and rested. It was already dark, darkness enveloped the earth, and only a little bonfire here still gave out light.

John was sitting by the campfire warming himself, Arthur was sitting opposite, writing and drawing under the light of the campfire, and Zhou Zheng was holding a cigarette in his mouth and looking at the map in his hand.

"From here, walk north along the creek to Plow Village. Do you want to go back and take a look? I remember that one of your previous companions was buried there." Zhou Zheng looked at the map without looking up. asked.

"David, yes, David is buried there." Speaking of this, Arthur and John suddenly became sad.

When David died, Zhou Zheng had not yet woken up. He was buried behind Coulter Village. At that time, Zhou Zheng was not very familiar with anyone else and had no feelings for this person.

But now that I have been with you all for so long, I feel a little bit in love with each other. It can be said that Zhou Zheng doesn't hate anyone in the entire gang except for Micah.

"And Jenny, she is buried further north." John picked up a cigarette, lit it for himself, and said somewhat melancholy.

"Let's go and see them tomorrow. They are all good guys." Arthur stood up and said.

"Well, I have no objection. Let's go and have a look." Zhou Zheng also wanted to go back and see his first stop in this world. This is quite memorable.

"I'm here to keep watch. You guys can have a good rest." Arthur looked at the snowfield outside and said, "The smell we just made was too fragrant. Something will probably attack us late at night. We have to watch the bonfire carefully. This Don’t let this thing go out.”

Zhou Zheng also stood up and said, "I'll stay up until midnight. I've been working hard all day. What will I do tomorrow if I don't get some sleep?"

"Okay, then you can call me when it's twelve o'clock." Arthur took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "It's already past seven o'clock now, and there are still more than four hours."

When people are full, horses also have to eat. There is no delicious green grass on the ground here. The red rabbit uses its hooves to dig up the snow on the ground and gnaws on the grass roots buried in the snow.

The three of them each fed their horses and tied them near the tent. It was closer to the fire and would be warmer than the outside.

But don't tie it too close. Animals are naturally afraid of fire. It would be bad if they are frightened by fire at night. It will not be so easy to go down the mountain on two legs.

After Arthur and John finished their work, they got into the big tent together, and soon the sounds of snoring came out one after another.

Zhou Zheng was sitting at the door of the small tent, using the tent's tarpaulin to resist the howling cold wind at night. From time to time, he picked up the fire tongs on the side to make the bonfire a little brighter.

No matter where you camp, a campfire is always the most important thing. This thing can help you block more than [-]% of the dangers.

John just got a lot of dry firewood, which is enough for tonight.
