Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 350: Lake Kamitenka
Chapter 350 Shangtianxiahu
Arriving at the exhibition site in Kalispell, Catherine and Old Walsh both went to the forage company to look at the forage, and Jian Heng started to visit the exhibition by himself.
It is said that the agricultural machinery exhibition is not only agricultural machinery, but also some daily life things, such as various crawler vehicles, and small aircraft for farms. Anyway, as long as it is related to farming and ranching, Or anything related to American life, you can almost see it at this exhibition.
To be honest, it's more like a hodgepodge!
Because many of the guys on display are large in size, the main exhibition halls are all outdoors, and the things displayed indoors are all high-tech, such as drones, various temperature control systems, and more. There are ranch software for farming and animal husbandry.
There are not as many people in the United States as in China, especially in Montana, so there are not many people at the exhibition site, even if it is a popular booth, or in front of the company's booth, at most there are scattered people. There are more than 20 people, and they don't have the momentum of going up the mountain to Shanghai at the domestic auto show.
It seems that there are almost as many guests as there are salesmen from the ten manufacturers and staff on the exhibition site, so the salesmen are also quite enthusiastic.
The knife flags that can be seen everywhere are the most common ones, each carrying the LOGO of their respective manufacturers, flying in the wind, adding a lot of lively atmosphere to the exhibition.
Because Jian Heng has a Chinese face, Jian Heng walked around outside, and seven or eight leaflets were stuffed in his hands. It is still the same old saying: Now that Laomei thinks that Chinese people are rich, Almost all the Chinese who came to the agricultural machinery exhibition were farmers and ranchers from China, and naturally they were guys with full pockets.
Indeed, just as they thought, Jian Heng also came here today to be a rich man. After looking around, he quickly ordered a forage harvesting and bundling machine.
The salesman who took the order was obviously very happy, and followed Jian Heng to introduce other machines of their company, but his focus was a bit wrong, and he worked hard to promote the company's drip irrigation system to Jian Heng. Jian Heng's ranch doesn't need such a thing.
After leaving this company, Jian Heng moved to the booth of another company. What attracted Jian Heng to this company was the plow machine. Why did he like the plow machine of this company? That one is much bigger, and it is easier to plow deeply. In addition, the pasture used to use this brand of plowers. Jian Heng is used to using them here and does not want to change them. This is also deeply influenced by old Anders.
Ask about the price, and at the same time learn about today's discounts, and feel that today's discounts are not bad for new machines, so within ten minutes, Jian Heng placed an order.
Just like that, after an hour and a half, Jian Heng purchased all the machinery needed for his ranch.
"Finally, it has returned to the grand occasion before the old Anders lost his family." Jian Heng looked at the list in his hand, marked with a check mark behind the names of various agricultural machinery, and said with great satisfaction in his heart.
At this moment, Jian Heng heard the sound of humming propellers coming from above his head, and when he looked up, he saw two small planes passing over his head. There was still a colorful fog hanging behind the planes, and he knew it was planes at a glance A show put on by a manufacturing company to attract customers.
As soon as Jian Heng saw the plane, he immediately thought of Wu Yong's small plane, which is so handsome. He wondered if he wanted to get a plane to fly, so Jian Heng's feet followed his brain unconsciously. Commander, walked towards the aircraft manufacturing company.
Arriving at the aircraft exhibition area, Jian Heng chatted with the salesman, and then asked what conditions are required for learning to fly an airplane. As soon as Jian Heng asked this, he was introduced by the salesman to a booth of a flight school. Of course, this flight school belongs to the same company as their aircraft manufacturing company.
In the United States, as long as you want to spend money, Americans can provide one-stop service, really one-stop service, as long as you have enough money in your pocket, as long as you sit down, Americans will buy luxury houses, luxury cars, and food Use all the brains to pile up in front of you, as for the beautiful chick? Again, as long as you have money.
When he saw the stall, Jian Heng felt that the American flight school was too cheap. A table with two roll-up rolls next to it, and two women standing behind the table, was the flight school’s stall. It was completely similar to domestic commercial At the entrance of the district or community, it looks like a small stall that lures people to learn English and order milk.
With this stand, I immediately pulled the feeling of being tall and tall from learning airplanes from the sky to the ground, not only pulling it to the ground, but also stepping on it twice.
Asked about the requirements, Jian Heng flipped through the materials in his hand, and listened to the salesman's introduction of the conditions for learning to fly.
"If your physical fitness level is above the third level, you can participate in flight learning. The whole learning time is about 20 hours, of which five hours are independent piloting, and you can fly the most basic aircraft..." the stall owner of the flight school said. There were only two of them. Although they were all young women, one of them was ugly compared to the other. Fortunately, Jian Heng came to ask how to study for an airplane license. Although they were ugly, they were quite proficient in their business.
"That plane can't do it!" Jian Heng was a bit disgusted with this simplest plane that could only guarantee to fly into the sky.
"If you want to upgrade your license, add about 70 hours of study, then you can fly a wider range of aircraft, and you will get a real pilot's license, which is a private pilot's license," the female salesman heard. This one was more demanding, and the smile on his face was unknowingly fuller.
Just when Jian Heng was about to ask, he suddenly felt someone pat him on the shoulder.
Turning his head, Jian Heng found Wu Yong's family standing behind him.
"I look like you!" Wu Yong said with a smile.
"Are you also coming to visit the agricultural machinery exhibition?" Jian Hengxin said: "What a coincidence, this guy appeared just as soon as I thought of it."
Wu Yong looked at the flyer in Jian Heng's hand, and said with a smile, "What, are you going to learn to fly?"
Jian Heng nodded: "Well, I'm going to learn a little bit, and then buy a plane to fly. How about you, what are you going to buy?"
"Let's come to see the boat and plan to buy a small speedboat. When we rest later, we can take the family to go camping, go to the lake and sail or something," Wu Yong said.
Jian Heng thought it was a good idea when he heard it. There was also a small boat in his own lake.
Thinking of this, Jian Heng asked the female salesperson of the aircraft school: "How is the time? I'm asking about freedom, because I live a little far away from your place, and it's not easy to go back and forth. of".
"Don't worry!" Wu Yong said with a smile: "Let me tell you, as long as there is no problem with the tuition fee, it is easier to get an airplane license here than to get a driver's license. In twenty hours, you can take two weeks at most, two or three Go once a day, and you will be able to get a basic driver's license soon," Wu Yong said with a smile when he heard Jian Heng's question.
"This gentleman is right. The basic flight license is very easy. Unless you take the commercial aircraft license, other flight license courses are not very difficult." The salesman said with a professional smile on his face.
"Well, I'll visit your flight school in a few days." After hearing this, Jian Heng decided to learn the pilot's license. The commercial pilot's license is fine, and Jian Heng is not going to fly a commercial aircraft to get the captain's salary, so For Jian Heng, an official flight license is enough.
"Welcome to our flight school, here is my card, if you have any questions, you can call me at any time" the salesman said happily.
Nodding to the salesman, Jian Heng and Wu Yong's family walked towards the boat show area.
Seeing that Jian Heng was going to learn how to fly, Wu Yong, as a veteran and senior pilot, began to introduce to Jian Heng the entry-level aircraft he thought was the most suitable, and then picked out a few advantages and disadvantages after flying himself Talk to Jian Heng.
At this moment, Jian Heng feels like buying the first car in his life, with a little excitement.
When Jian Heng arrived at the boat selling area, the original little excitement turned into a big excitement. Jian Heng felt that the Americans liked boats so much. There were about two to three hundred boats, big and small, and all kinds of boats were placed Together, the scene was a shock, except for agricultural machinery, the ship area is the largest.
Although it is smaller than agricultural machinery, the exhibits in the ship area are much more beautiful than agricultural machinery.
There are small windsurfing boats and slightly larger yachts, ranging from ordinary wood, to steel, to the latest fiber materials.
From plain looking, to extraordinarily gorgeous, to cool and futuristic, everything you want can be found here.
All the yachts are equipped with five or six steps next to them, so that visitors can easily walk into the yacht and feel the feeling of riding.
Wu Yong's family chose a speedboat, while Jian Heng wanted to get a fishing boat to put in his own lake. Regardless of the simplicity of the request, Jian Heng and Wu Yong's family were quickly confused by the choice, and they didn't know what to choose. up.
