Lisko’s American Life
Chapter 98: first grazing
In the early morning, Lisko put on denim clothes and harnesses. He usually rides without breeches. The breeches are made of a layer of cowhide. They surround the trousers and can block the dust from running and the splashing of the river.
He took off his father's cowboy hat hanging on the wall and stroked it lightly.
It's a brown hat with a worn out lining where it already has.
Lisko looked at it, as if seeing his father taking it down every day and running around the ranch wearing it.
"BOSS." David held his cowboy hat in one hand and covered his chest, asking Lisko for instructions.
Lisko put it on, "Let's go."
After leaving the stables, the cowboys lined up and waited in front of the bullpen. Lisko looked at the four people in front of him.
"Weiss, you take the lead, Humble, finish at the back, I'm on the left, BOSS, you're on the right?"
Lisko nodded, the cowboys took off their cowboy hats and lowered their heads to gesture to Lisko.
For cowboys, ranchers are like their monarchs. They are all ranchers' retainers. This was the rule in the past, and now many old-fashioned ranches are still like this.
The cowshed is opened, and the herd begins to gather.
The cowboys shouted and drove the cattle to run.
This time, Lisko also found that the ranch was really not staffed enough. This year, the herd increased by more than 1,000 cows. The cowboys with the most experience in the ranch are usually the ones who lead the cattle. The herd was trampled to a pulp.
There is one person on the left and right, with a cowboy foreman and a cowboy photo behind to fill the gap.
The current collocation is limited, it seems that the recruitment will be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
Lisko clamped the horse's belly to speed up. Everyone had a walkie-talkie on their chest. In the past, the cowboys used to communicate by whistle when they were scattered. With the development of technology, high-power walkie-talkies are very good tools.
"Ziz~David, the cattle are separated by trees, and there are cattle left behind." Humble behind found the situation.
David quickened his speed, took out the rope he was carrying, tied the knot, swung it from a distance, aimed at the lone calf, grabbed the bull's head at once, turned the direction, and dragged the calf to the back row. This kind of cow-trap thing should be done by two people, one over the head and the other over the legs. It is easy to subdue, but there are not enough people in the ranch. Fortunately, David's cow-trap technique is superb, and he can handle it by himself.
This time Lisko found that he still needed a helicopter, which could be cheaper. The unobstructed view from the sky was more suitable for command.
Only when you really get involved will you know the current loopholes in the ranch.
Lisko galloped, thinking about things on horseback. Helicopter prices are cheap, you can buy a good one for around $50,000, about the same price as a normal car, and the fuel is cheap. It is a two-seater.
Last year, there were only over a hundred cows in the pasture, so everything was simplified. In the future, the development of the pasture will be indispensable. Lisko plans to purchase the previous pasture and expand the scope.
After this period of life, Lisko really fell in love with living in such a ferocious high-rise building, so he changed his initial thinking. If there is a chance, he doesn't mind increasing the area.
Every American wants to be a cowboy. In Hollywood, Western movies are the mainstream movies, and the cowboy spirit is deeply embedded in their lives. The slogan of freedom in the American spirit is the embodiment of this cowboy culture.
In their culture, cowboys are on the big screen as modern knights who save the girls from danger, or the image of brave, fearless and highly skilled knights. Equivalent to Chinese martial arts knights, so everyone wants to be a cowboy.
Many rich people like to buy a ranch and experience this kind of comfortable rural life.
As the cattle arrived at their destination, the current Weiss had stopped.
The speed of the herd also started to slow down, and some of them were already scattered around and nibbling on the grass.
The cowboys were already together at this time, eating breakfast. They were used to eating sandwiches after the herd stopped, and drinking a few sips of coffee or low-brew beer from the aluminum pot they carried with them.
"Sir," David handed over a sandwich wrapped in paper.
Lisko opened it, with lettuce and ham in it, and a few pieces of beef.
"It tastes good, and Jasmine's craftsmanship is still as good." Lisko took a bite and gave David a thumbs up.
"Of course, she won my heart because of her good cooking skills." Speaking of his wife, David's face was full of satisfaction.
David is still very attentive. He knows that Lisko is participating in this kind of activity for the first time, and he definitely doesn't know what to bring.
Although Lisko grew up on the ranch, he didn't know much about the ranch. Because of his good academic performance, his father wanted him to get ahead. The goal at the time was to make him a lawyer, so he never let him. participated.
Cowboys generally carry the Winchester M1873 with them. This powerful gun gives them a great sense of security. In the early years, there were often wild boars and bears going down the mountain.
David is a cowboy with great marksmanship~www.readwn.com~ His father was a cowboy, and he inherited his father's profession when he grew up.
Eating the sandwich, he seemed to have noticed something, the grass was moving in the distance, and he took off the gun stuck on the back of his horse.
"Bang"
There was something in the grass that didn't move, and David rode his horse to the destination, stepping on the stirrups and aiming at it along the way.
Garrison has a lot of pastures, so the cowboys have been preached by the older generation. Don’t put down the gun immediately when the prey is killed. You don’t know that it has kerosene pretending to be dead, or that there are companions next to it.
These tips are all summed up after bloodshed.
After confirming that there was nothing left, he bent down from the horse's back to pick up the prey.
"Beep," the cowboys saw the prey in their hands, whistling the harvest, it was a fat hare.
"Eat dinner," David put the gun on his shoulder and tied the prey to the horse's neck.
"David, good marksmanship." Lisko finished his sandwich, stuffed the wrapping paper into his pocket, and gave a thumbs up to David who came over.
"Sir, it's time for us to raise a few hunting dogs. There are a lot of hares in this season."
David came over and made his appeal.
Lisko touched the stubble on his chin and thought about it carefully. Indeed, hares do great harm to the grass. They do not simply eat grass, but also destroy the grass roots of the pasture.
"I'll leave this to you. Find some good ones."
Of course Lisko didn't think that the Mag he raised could be used as a hunting dog. It was a small dog, and it was his pet.
Speaking of Mag, Lisko kept him in Willow's place, and he lived a very comfortable life every day. The caring little girl bathed him and slept with him every day. Lisko estimated that he was comfortable and reluctant to think about it.
