Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 272: marginalized
Chapter 272 Marginalized
After eating for more than half an hour, all four of them ate like tamarinds with red faces and thick necks. This kind of red face and thick necks was not because of drinking, but because the red oil pot was indeed too spicy, and everyone reacted.
The best of the four is the bodyguard. This one seems to be born for spicy food. He can hardly leave his chopsticks when he eats. When he sweats on his forehead, he just wipes it with his hand, shakes it to the ground and continues to eat.
Jian Heng is now focusing on clear soup pots, taking a sip of small beer from time to time, and only eating two sips of red oil pots when his body feels a little cold.
As for the braggarts Sun Siwei and He Ye, they are sweating all over their bodies now. They look like people with a cold who deliberately wear too many clothes to sweat. It looks very interesting. Now more than half of a beer has gone down, and about eight of them have entered the stomachs of the two people. There is no way, it is too spicy and needs wine to relieve the spicy taste in their mouths.
Jian Heng was eating while preparing to watch the two make a fool of themselves. Who knew that when the fool was about to arrive, there was the sound of a helicopter above his head, and it was not one or two.
"Helicopter?!" He Ye stood up as soon as he heard the sound, walked a few steps to the outside of the corridor, put his hands in front of his eyes and looked up at the sky.
"I'll take a look too!" Sun Siwei immediately stood up after seeing it.
Jian Heng was a little disappointed in his heart. Seeing that these two guys were going to be so hot, he yelled at them, but he was disturbed by the helicopter.
Sun Siwei shouted at Jian Heng: "Come and see, there are five helicopters in total!"
When Jian Heng heard that there were so many fights, he stood up and walked towards the place where the two were standing. When he stood beside the two, Jian Heng was taken aback by the battle in the sky, because the sky not far away The five helicopters lined up in a plum blossom shape and flew neatly towards the mountain.
The place where the helicopter flew was not far from Jian Heng’s ranch, it was just over the pasture opposite the Silent Lake, that is, the sky over O’Brien’s ranch, and Jian Heng could still see the people on the outermost helicopter.
Obviously this one likes to show off too, this season the helicopter has the doors open on both sides, it looks like a psychopath, especially this one is wearing a brown cowboy hat on his head, a square scarf around his neck, and his face is stuck Wearing a pair of toad mirrors and a cigar in his mouth, Jian Heng looked like a complete fool.
"Who are these people?" Sun Siwei seemed to envy these people squatting on the helicopter to suffer from the cold, and said while watching.
Jian Heng took a glance and understood, so he explained to Sun Siwei: "You can tell that you are a bounty hunter by looking at that stupid look!"
It's not that Jian Heng is well-informed, but that Jian Heng saw the logo on the helicopter and didn't know whether it was sprayed or a temporary sticker. There was a picture of the black wolf king on it, and there was an arrow on the wolf master's head. It's clear, and anyone who knows a little information can guess who these people are.
"What are bounty hunters here for?" When Sun Siwei heard about bounty hunters, the little stars in his eyes became clearer and brighter. To him, the name bounty hunter felt lofty, not to mention these People brought five helicopters at once.
Jian Heng explained: "A while ago, almost a month ago, probably less than a month ago, there came out a rather evil black wolf in this mountain, and this black wolf has a strong desire for revenge. It, it has to come back with revenge. If you can get along with it peacefully, it will not provoke people for no reason. Now it is having trouble with two nearby large ranches, and the people in these two ranches are so angry Nervous. The black wolf didn't know why later, gathered a group of wolves, relied on the surrounding green water and green mountains, and played a guerrilla station. This suddenly ruined the two large ranches. No, the bounty has been released, and it is estimated that it will be worth 100,000 knives now, otherwise these bounty hunters can't afford to hire a helicopter." Jian Heng roughly explained the matter.
When Sun Siwei heard that there was such a legendary thing, he immediately asked again.
Jian Heng didn't know too much, so he couldn't bear Sun Siwei's questioning, not to mention that after Sun Siwei asked a few sentences, he also aroused He Ye's interest.
Under the two people's questioning, Jian Heng's stomach was soon emptied, and he raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "Two, two, if you really want to know, don't ask Let me inquire, don't inquire about people in my ranch, you two go directly to the bar in the small town, ask anyone at random, you will know more than me!"
"You don't know what happened around you?" Sun Siwei didn't understand Jian Heng's mentality, and questioned him aloud.
He Ye stared at the shadows of several helicopters, and opened his mouth and said, "Him? You don't know, now you have learned from an ostrich, squatting here and not moving your nest, and you don't hear what's going on outside the window. Make a villain!"
After finishing speaking, He Ye laughed twice.
Sun Siwei didn't wait for Jian Heng to answer, and said to He Ye: "Mr. He, why don't we go to the town to find out?"
"Okay, then let's set off right away, I think this is quite interesting." He Ye turned around and stepped under the corridor shelf to get his coat.
Jian Heng understood at a glance that these two guys were about to run away, and it seemed that the hot pot was at its peak: "You two, come on, let's go after eating. Look, I haven't finished a piece of beer yet. It’s still far from the goal of both of you, and is it spicy enough, if not, I’ll give you some more?”
There was no embarrassment on Sun Siwei's face, and he said without turning his head: "You are boring, you have eaten clear soup for a long time, and you are still chattering here, I don't want to talk to you, even if you can't eat spicy food You can't even tell a good story, you live in such a nice place, you really ruined the beautiful mountains, rivers and scenery!"
Jian Heng was about to open his mouth to complain about this guy, when suddenly the phone in his pocket rang, and when he took it out, he found that it was Dominic who was working at Anderson Ranch.
"Hello, Dominic" Jian Heng put the phone to his ear and said.
"Gene, have you set off yet?" Dominique asked from the other end.
Jian Heng heard him ask this question, and asked strangely: "Let's go, what's going on?"
"You don't know?" Dominic asked back.
Jian Heng became even more strange after hearing this: "What do I know?"
"Um...ha..." Dominic started looking left and right as he got up.
Jian Heng was in the mood to play around with him early in the morning, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Dominique, if you have anything to say, just say it, what should I know but don't know?"
When Dominic heard Jian Heng's direct question, he opened his mouth and said: "The nearby ranchers are going to discuss the matter of the shadow of the wolf king. Catherine received the notification. I didn't know that no one notified you. It's time for the notice, because Catherine can't go here, so let me go and listen to what those people have to say... ".
Hearing what Dominique said, Jian Heng understood that some small and medium-sized ranchers around wanted to get together to discuss a way to deal with the shadow of the wolf king's death because of their own interests. To unify everyone's understanding.
So all the ranchers around may have been invited, and I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional that Jian Heng was left out. In this way, Jian Heng became a marginalized person by these ranchers.
Does this news make Jian Heng angry? Anger is naturally angry, but it is only for a moment, and Jian Heng has no mood to care about these things.
Because in Jian Heng's view, no matter how this matter is discussed, in the end it is nothing more than spending money and effort.
At the same time, because of this matter, Jian Heng also understood that this pack of wolves made all the ranchers around feel uneasy. The behavior of the wolf king at this stage directly frightened all ranchers, even the small and medium ranchers. Also prepare to eliminate this danger.
Some people may ask, since the wolves did not harass their pasture, why are they planning to kill the wolf king?
This reason is obvious, because no one knows whether the shadow of the wolf king's death will point its guns at its own ranch in the future, because in the eyes of these ranch owners, even if their ranch is targeted by the wolf king once, then it will be impossible. There is only one way to go bankrupt.
The safest way for them is to get rid of the wolf king, and then ensure the absolute safety of their own ranch. It is this sense of crisis that brings these small and medium ranches together.
