065 Cowboy
There are many large ranches in the United States and many small ranches.
Generally speaking, small ranchs do not hire cowboys, but some ranchers and their families take care of the ranch themselves. During the estrus period or summer when growing cattle, some small ranchs will temporarily hire cowboys, of course, only for a short period of time.
Otherwise, for ranchers on these small ranchers, the salary of cowboys would be huge pressure.
This also leads to many cowboys working for a short-term job, working on a ranch for several weeks or months, and then considering looking for a new job. Some may be related to the ranch, while others actually have nothing to do with the ranch.
This is the norm, this is the manifestation of the lives of cowboys, and this is the content of their work.
Chen Chen did not hesitate, he really needed help. Although this would make Chen Chen spend a lot of money, time is even more precious to Chen Chen, and he did not intend to become a complete rancher.
At least, like some small ranchers, they would not tie almost all their lives to the ranch, and they did not intend to solve everything themselves. One is that Chen Chen still needs time to do other things, and the other is that even if he has worked in the ranch, he is only limited in energy and cannot do some things well.
When he arrived at the bar, Chen Chen immediately felt some drinkers looking at him, and there was nothing new.
Such a cowboy bar is also considered a "theme bar". Except for some people who misinformed outsiders, they are basically old-fashioned. This bar is obviously something that cowboys like to come here, and they have a glass of wine and brag after the end of a tired day.
It also includes waiting for employers here or asking for some information from peers.
I don’t plan to recruit those cunning people, nor do I plan to recruit those who are old and weak, nor do I plan to recruit those who rely on their third-point ability to look down on their employers.
After all, cowboys are physical jobs, and hard work is the fundamental reason. Not all cowboys are honest, especially many cowboys who have almost no education and are very vulgar. Even Chen Chen is not a person with education, and does not think that character and education are absolutely linked, but he knows that many cowboys are actually annoying.
The bartender brought Chen Chen a glass of beer. There is basically no good wine in such a bar. After all, cowboys are not a high-income group. Many times they still pay attention to cost-effectiveness.
After looking at a drunk cowboy next to him, Chen Chen didn't say anything. Many cowboys didn't work in winter and were waiting for opportunities, but Chen Chen didn't plan to find an employee who seemed to be overly drunk, even if it was just a temporary employee.
After thinking about it, Chen Chen bought another glass of beer and walked towards a cowboy sitting in the corner.
"Please have a drink." Chen Chen handed over the wine glass, very enthusiastic.
The cowboy looked up at Chen Chen and said directly, "I don't make friends with Asians."
There is no need to invite this glass of wine. Montana itself has very few Asians, and various racial discrimination in the United States also exists. Chen Chen, who is not surprised, was not surprised. Some people influenced by the media were extinguished. Many of them thought that China did not have roads or planes, and there were not even one or two such people.
A white-bearded cowboy waved at Chen Chen and joked, "You should learn to observe, that's the motorcycle party."
"If you don't mind, I'll give you this glass of wine." Chen Chen smiled and handed it over, then said to the person next to him, "This round is mine."
The three cowboys sitting together chatting all laughed, probably understanding what Chen Chen meant.
"Charles is a good cowboy, but he can't be friends with everyone." said the old man who spoke before, "Let me think about it, his father died in that unrecorded war. You should understand that."
Resisting U.S. aggressing U.S. aggressing Korea and aiding Korea, this is probably the name.
Chen Chen smiled, then introduced himself, "Chen Chen, you can call me Chen or Chen. Of course, for you, my last name and name pronunciation are similar."
"Louis Louis, is that what it means?" said a chubby old man with red nose. "This is not new, and such names are common to us."
The old man who spoke before introduced himself, "Ryan Thomas, Michael Kane, and our young man Jim Young."
"I am a rancher, and I need some help now." Chen Chen was straight to the point and did not intend to hide it too much. "If you are well-informed, you probably know where my ranch is and how big it is."
Thomas spoke and advised, "I know that land prices have risen in the past few years, which is a good investment. It's just a young man, ranchers are not a good career. We have seen many small ranchers go bankrupt because they lost a few cows, because the weather was dry, or because the price of beef fell."
"Thank you, I know what I'm doing." Chen Chen smiled and felt a little fond of Thomas. "I mean it is very simple. I am very confident in my investment. It's just that my ranch needs to be renovated, otherwise it will rot and lose its competitiveness. In that case, my investment is likely to fail."
Thomas said unhappily, "I know that ranch! Its soil fertility is very low and the pollution is relatively serious. If it is spring and summer, you will see that the ranch there is not rich. I think that such a ranch can only raise up to thirty cows, and I don't think you have the chance to make money."
This is the truth. Raising thirty cows on 500 acres of land is not a good load capacity. However, the foundation of the pasture is very bad, and even thirty cows may not be able to be raised. If it is not overgrazing, the forage there is very average, and it is basically impossible to raise high-quality cows, so the price is naturally low.
"So I need to start sorting out the pasture again, I need someone to help me remove the pasture, I will plant new pasture. I'm in a hurry, I have to complete this work before spring comes." Looking at Thomas, Chen Chen sent an invitation, "Can you tell me your resume?"
Thomas was silent for a moment before saying, "Growing forage is important, but you can't change the soil there lacks fertility. If you use fertilizer, your cattle will be difficult to sell, which will make it difficult to recover the cost."
Kane next to him advised, "My kind-hearted person Ryan, this is a job. You don't need to be with us and can only drink here. You have the chance to get a salary."
"Chan, this is one of the best cowboys. He grew up on the ranch and started working on the ranch before he finished high school. It has been forty years." Pointing to Thomas's legs, Young said, "As long as you don't ask him to take a cow, that's fine."
It seems that Thomas was injured and had some sequelae. So when the cattle were in heat in spring, or when the beef cattle were slaughtered or when the long-distance transition, Thomas may be a little overwhelmed.
"Let's do this, my weekly salary is 600 US dollars. I think I can complete all the work in a month and a half." Chen Chen officially started quoting, "The machines are mine, and a batch of new machines have been delivered one after another."
Thomas picked up the wine glass and thought for a while and said, "A weekly salary of $650 is much easier if you need to replant the pasture. But changing the pasture will be troublesome, I have to plough deeply and remove their roots. And I don't think it can be done in a month and a half, it will take two months."
Chen Chen stretched out his right hand and said with a smile, "Then we'll make a deal like this. I hope to see you appear on the ranch tomorrow."
After saying that, he snapped his fingers at the bartender, "Four glasses of beer!"
Although I knew Chen Chen was here to recruit people, I also felt that this young man was a little unlucky and never looked back. However, this young man looked pretty good, enthusiastic and cheerful, and was a generous and easy-to-dealer.
However, it is still necessary to observe. These old people have seen a lot of people in the bar. When they arrive at the workplace, they are villains and demons. Such things are nothing new.
The wine was finished and the staff was recruited. Chen Chen felt very satisfied. Drinking two glasses of wine was enough. There was no need to stay in a bar where the rough men were like this. Are there any beauties...
No, I have a girlfriend, so I can't be so dirty!
If you go home, if you don’t go home, the child Groot will be in trouble!
