My Age of Investment

  Chapter 205 The bull runs away (the leader adds 1010)

night.

  The Yang Niu family slaughtered a sheep to entertain Xia Jingxing and the dog.

  The foreign girl’s father, Little Walsh was busy on the grass at the entrance of the yard, turning the grill, rolling the yellow roast lamb, and at the same time brushing the lamb body with oil and sprinkling various condiments.

  In the yard, fragrance is overflowing.

  The grandfather of the foreign girl, the old Walsh and Xia Jingxing sat at a long table and chatted.

  "The Chinese are very brave. I personally witnessed it on the battlefield more than 50 years ago."

  Old Walsh’s muddy eyes flashed with solemnity, “In the winter of minus 40 degrees in North Korea, they were wearing thin cotton-padded clothes, blowing the charge horn, and attacking us in groups of three...”

  Xia Jingxing didn't interrupt much, and just sat and listened quietly.

  When he was a child, he heard his grandfather tell many stories about volunteers fighting, and he felt very brave and fearless.

  In Walsh's mouth, the Volunteers are the same, but they are more serious and cruel.

  "We were retreating in a car. Volunteers were all over the mountains. They were holding guns and running on two legs to chase us."

  Old Walsh spread out, "If they were a mechanized unit, maybe hundreds of thousands of other people and I would have gone to see God long ago.

  The volunteer army is not afraid of death, and our chief also asked us to do the same.

  But most of us think we can go home after staying there for a year.

  In the United States, this is a forgotten war. "

  Old Walsh looked at Xia Jingxing and asked, "Do you know why it was forgotten?"

   "Because the Americans have exhausted everything except the loss of a nuclear bomb, they just can't win this war."

  Old Walsh nodded, "Yes, this is the first foreign war that the United States has lost.

  This war was also carried out meaninglessly, and the lives of tens of thousands of great guys were wasted in vain. "

   "My grandfather also participated in this war!"

  Old Walsh suddenly became interested and asked: "Is he in good health?"

  Xia Jingxing glanced at Old Walsh, who was holding a cane in his hand, "He doesn't have to use a cane, and he has to work on the ground every day."

   "Do you also have a farm in your family?"

  Old Walsh continued to ask.

  "Yes, 0.5 acres (3 acres)."

  Old Walsh thought he had heard it wrong, and asked again, "A 0.5-acre farm?"

  Xia Jingxing nodded solemnly, "Yes, enough for a family to eat."

  Old Walsh couldn’t understand, “Don’t the Chinese government and political program want to allocate land to the poor?”

  "Yes, it’s divided. I didn’t even have 0.01 acres of land. I worked for the farmer (landlord) or rented the land of the farmer.

  When the harvest is not good, the farmer still lends usury to these workers or renters.

  In this way, debts swelled like a snowball, until several generations were not finished, and the ancestors had to work for the farmer for generations. This is the original old China. "

  Old Walsh nodded, "I finally understand why the Volunteers are so strong. They support this country from the heart."

  The little dog stretched his head and glanced not far away, and didn't understand why the old Mr. Walsh liked to chat with the boss so much.

  He just got in, but Old Walsh ignored him.

  "How is China developing now?"

  Old Walsh recalled the past for a while, and then began to pay attention to the current situation in China.

  "The development is very fast, which can be described as changing with each passing day. Many middle and low-end manufacturing industries around the world are migrating because of the low labor cost."

  Old Walsh smiled and said, "Really? I used to remember that China was a pure agricultural country, and its industrial power was so small that it was negligible.

  In my lifetime, I really hope to visit China. "

   "I think you are in good health now. If you want to go, go as soon as possible. In a few years, maybe I will push you to go."

  Old Walsh didn’t mind Xia Jingxing’s straightforwardness, and laughed loudly, “You’re right, it seems I have to arrange a trip to China.”

  …………

  …………

after a little while.

  The foreign girl’s grandmother and mother walked out of the villa carrying cutlery and plates, and began to put them on the long table outside the yard.

Old Walsh said to the old silver-haired lady with plates and cutlery next to him: "Dear Kayla, the children have grown up now, I think we should go out for a walk, just like you and me, just like a young married honeymoon. .

  Let’s go to China for the first stop to see the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and the capital. What do you think? "

  The old lady Kayla, who is the grandmother of the foreign girl, said, "I persuaded you a long time ago. Have you finally figured it out now?"

   "Darren, did you make Mr. Walsh the old one?"

  The foreign girl's mother looked at Xia Jingxing.

  Americans call their parents-in-laws by their first names, and Xia Jingxing did not make a fuss.

  Xia Jingxing smiled and said, "Yes, Ms. Caitlin, I suggest that Mr. Walsh, while still young, take more trips and do not leave any regrets in life."

  Caitlin is the mother of a foreign girl, a black-haired, white woman in her forties who has given birth to three children. She is tall and not very deviated. She can still vaguely see that she was a beautiful woman when she was young.

   "I think you are right!"

  Caitlin hugged the fat girl Jessica, "If I hadn't taken care of this little guy, I would like to go on a vacation with Walsh.

  If you live on the ranch for more than 20 years, I believe you will be as bored as I am. "

  Xia Jingxing smiled, “Yes, one’s life can’t be all for work, but for others, you have to enjoy your own life.”

  Caitlin smiled, "It seems that Darren, you have more fun in life than many Asians. I have met several Asians, all thinking about making money and taking care of the family."

  Xia Jingxing laughed, cultural differences, it’s really hard to answer.

  The whole roasted lamb was finally served. Little Walsh took a knife and skillfully divided the food, giving everyone a large piece of plate.

  Everyone sat at the table, drank wine and drinks, and tasted this roasted whole lamb.

  Xia Jingxing thinks the taste is very good. It can be seen that Little Walsh has made this dish, the heat is just right, the meat is fresh and tender, and the taste is good.

  It’s normal to think about it, the rancher, roasting two lambs in three days, isn’t it a basic operation?

  After a full meal, Xia Jingxing and Little Dog stayed in the guest room of Yang Niu's house.

  …………

  …………

  The next day.

  The foreign girl brought Xia Jingxing and the little dog to the horse farm at home.

  There are not many horses, there are only a dozen horses in total.

   Yang Niu introduced to Xia Jingxing and Little Dog that their ranch is mainly for raising cattle and sheep.

  Raising horses is purely a hobby, not for making money.

  Jessica, the little fat girl wearing a full set of horse gear, led a small pony not much taller than her, and walked slowly on the horse farm.

   "Even she has a horse to ride?"

  The little dog pointed at the fat girl, and felt that the life in the foreign girl’s family was too extravagant, which made people envious!

  The foreign girl smiled, "Horse is actually not expensive. You can buy one for two or three thousand dollars, mainly because of the high cost of raising horses.

  Basically every member of our family has a horse, which is usually taken care of by my father. Everyone occasionally comes to the racecourse for a ride on weekends. "

  Yang Niu chose a horse for Xia Jingxing and Little Dog, and then the three of them rode horses and began to cruise the ranch of Yang Niu’s family.

  Neither Xia Jingxing nor the little dog can ride a horse, for fear that the horse will suddenly go mad and gallop.

  They dare not push the horses, so they can only let the horses wander around the pasture slowly.

  Walking on horseback, the three approached the grazing area.

  Beef cows, dairy cows, white, brown, and various colors of cattle, hundreds of them are scattered on the grassland, surrounded by wooden fences to prevent the cattle from running away.

  After riding close to the herd of cattle, the little dog suddenly shouted: "Kristina, there is a problem with your cattle."

  The foreign girl was puzzled: "What's the problem?"

  The little dog pointed at the cow and said anxiously: "Look, why are all these cows with a big hole in their backs? Who did it? The cows will definitely not survive."

  Xia Jingxing also noticed that there are two palm-sized holes in the upper center of the cow's left belly.

  More than just a cow, every cow has a big hole in its back, which looks weird.

  He carefully observed that there was neither bleeding on the cow nor any abnormality in the cow. It should not have been a recent hole.

  What's the situation?

   With doubts, Xia Jingxing also turned to look at the foreign girl.

  The foreign girl patted her forehead. When she heard the little dog yelling, she thought something serious happened. It turned out to be this!

  She explained to the two of them, “This hole is for better protection of the cow. Workers perform an operation on the cow. This is called fenestration of the cow’s stomach.

  Because there are four stomachs in a cow, which are rumen, honeycomb, double stomach and abomasum.

  The first three stomachs are all esophageal variant stomachs, and the last abomasum is the cow’s original stomach.

  This hole is opened in the rumen. The rumen is the cow’s first stomach and the stomach with the heaviest burden. All plant fibers and messy things are digested by this stomach.

  Because of this, the rumen of cattle is also prone to problems.

  Once the cow’s stomach has a problem, even the best veterinarian will be helpless.

  Therefore, in order to detect and treat problems in the rumen of the cow in time, the workers will make a hole in the rumen of the cow.

  In addition to the convenient and timely removal of some undigested food in the rumen, it can also directly act on the medicine in the stomach, which can greatly reduce the death rate of cattle.

  In the United States, it is very normal to make holes in the back of cows. Basically all farms do this. "

  The foreign girl pointed to the hole on the back of the cow, and said: "Have you seen it? The hole is surrounded by medical silicone, and there is a transparent glass on the hole.

  This piece of glass can be taken down at any time. In addition to observing the digestion of the cow, the workers can also reach in to help the cow dig out its stomach..."

   "Does the cow hurt?"

  The little dog frowned, thinking it was too cruel.

  The foreign girl spread her hands and said, “When the hole is opened, there will be anesthetics, and it will not hurt afterwards, I don’t know, it shouldn’t hurt, otherwise the cow will not go crazy.

  In the past, cows used to eat grass. In order to save farming costs, cows are now fed corn, even cheaper genetically modified corn.

  These foods are not as digestible as grass, and cattle often have problems. "

  Xia Jingxing was convinced. The American capitalists are so arrogant that even the bulls will be exploited.

   "Can you still pass this hole and throw something long for the cow?"

  Xia Jingxing winked at the foreign girl. Through this hole, he thought of many things.

  The foreign girl blinked and said nothing.

  Xia Jingxing understood in an instant, the old capitalist.

   "Mr. Walsh is pretty good, so he can do business."

  Xia Jingxing feels that opening a ranch is not easy. He has thought about every idea and tried every means to save costs and expand profits.

  "Why is this cow wearing an orange plastic card on its ears?"

  The little dog started to ask again like a curious baby.

  Yang Niu replied: “This is the cow’s ID card, which contains the cow’s date of birth, kinship, and serial number. This information will also be backed up on the computer and can be checked at any time.”

  The little dog nodded, "Oh, I also engage in technology ranch, great!"

Sudden!

  A sturdy bull went mad and slammed into the wooden fence frantically.

  This unexpected situation shocked all three of them.

  In three or two, the wooden fence was knocked open by a gap, and the bull ran wildly!

   "Kristina, what should I do? Your cow ran away."

  The little dog pointed in the direction where the cow ran and said, a little anxious for the foreign girl.

  The foreign girl nodded, her face was calm, and instead of chasing the cow, she took out her mobile phone and called her dad.

   "Dad, there are cows in hair/love ran away!"

   Xia Jingxing scratched his head, "How did you know this?"

   "Because of this kind of thing, I have seen countless since I was a child!"

  Kristina didn’t feel ashamed, so she explained to the two of them openly.

  After the cow that leads the pasture in heat/estrus, the urine secreted contains hormones, the smell is emitted in the air, and the bull can smell it from 0.5 miles (0.8 km) away.

  After receiving the courtship signal, the bull will break the fence, follow the smell to find the cow, and possibly fight with the bull near the pasture to fight for the right to mate.

  The foreign girl ignored the two people who were looking at each other, and hurried the horse to the gap in the fence that the bull had just smashed into, and took the horse whip to drive back the herd that was trying to run out, blocking the gap.

  The two of Xia Jingxing couldn't help much, and they stared on the horse.

  　 was really misfortuned by a book friend. The lumbar disc was protruding. I lay on the bed at 4 o'clock last night. The lumbar spine on the bed was terribly painful.

  　　 Thank you for your concern. I will take care of my body. It will be better if I stand the codeword. No work is easy, as long as the body allows it, we will try our best to code words.
