Little Life on An American Ranch
Chapter 490: bustling town
Chapter 490 A Town That's Getting Prosperous
"Barley, Wheat, Kate has lived with us for a long time, right?" In order to ask this question, Jian Heng took a magazine in his hand, flipping through it and pretending to ask it casually.
When Damai and Mai turned their heads and saw Jian Heng's appearance, they were immediately bewildered by his performance. After humming, they continued to fiddle with the things in their hands while watching TV.
"Just let her and Jimmy do it like this? Didn't you think about getting a result quickly?" Jian Heng asked.
Balley heard something wrong now, and asked Jian Heng: "Do you think it's troublesome for my mother to live here?"
"It's nothing, I haven't seen her for a few days, your mother is like a dragon, why should I bother!" Jian Heng said quickly.
Wheat became curious: "Then why do you ask that!"
Jian Heng simply put down the magazine in his hand, stopped pretending, and hooked his fingers at the two sisters, signaling them to move their heads closer.
"I think, Kate is either interested in old man Yao or old man Yao, maybe even interested in both of them!"
"Get out!" Damai immediately turned pale when he heard that, and pushed Jian Heng.
Wheat asked curiously: "Why do you think so?"
"Look, today I went to talk to Mr. Yao about clothing, but I didn't expect..." Jian Heng told Mai Mai what happened.
After speaking, he clapped his hands and looked at Mai Mai eagerly, with a clear expression on his face: You still don't understand?
Wheat didn't hear any ambiguity between his mother and the two old men from Jian Heng's story at all, so he stared at Jian Heng with a dull look: What do I want to understand?
"You two are really good!" Damai was speechless.
Jian Heng said: "What is true, I will suffer from any old man Kate finds!"
Wheat didn't understand, after his mother got well with Mr. Yao or Mr. Yao, what kind of loss did Jian Heng suffer.
Jian Heng said: "You still don't understand that although they and I were of the same age, we were of the same generation. Now whoever gets involved with your mother has immediately become my old father-in-law. Have you noticed this? !”.
Before Jian Heng finished speaking, a barley was hit on his head.
Xiaomi also said: "Who my mother is with is her business. It has nothing to do with us. What does it have to do with you?"
"It's not what he thought at all. My mother and the two gentlemen are just friends. Now they are obsessed with a kind of Chinese drama art, so the three of them often discuss together. There is no other relationship involved. Even if there is It has nothing to do with us," Damai said.
Americans are very open about this matter, and they don’t have the feeling of a lower generation like Jian Heng, because they usually call their father-in-law and these elders call them by their first names.
Seeing Jian Heng's slightly troubled expression, Damai had no choice but to reach out and pat him: "Okay, it's time for a massage."
"Then press it." Jian Heng shrugged.
Massage and sleep, step by step, Jian Heng slept until five o'clock, it's not that Jian Heng doesn't want to sleep anymore, but that the weather is getting warmer, and the black bean came to knock on the window again.
Walking on the bed, walking the horse and cooking until watching the two sisters go to class, Jian Heng started to turn around in the pasture. Turning around, Jian Heng found himself transferred to the dormitory area, so the next two days Every day, Jian Heng will always come to the dormitory area intentionally or unintentionally, thinking that he can find something wrong with Kate and the two old men, so that he can prevent it before it happens.
For several days in a row, the more Jian Heng watched, the more he felt that these three were abnormal, but he didn't find anything abnormal. These three people just often babbled together, sang a play, hummed a song or something, and raised their hands and gestures. Jian Heng didn't know whether he was disappointed or delighted that there was no adultery.
In addition to this, Jian Heng also goes to the bar from time to time in the past few days to drink some wine and inquire about the situation of the four-eyed black.
It was like four o'clock this afternoon, when Jian Heng rode a black bean to the bar.
Now that the weather is better, and there are more people in the town, there is definitely no room to sit in the house, even if it is enlarged. So a dozen or so tables were set up outside the bar, and it was still full of people. Some of them could only drink while standing or leaning against their friends while holding a glass of wine.
Jian Heng got off the horse. Black beans didn’t need to be tied, but now it’s no longer necessary, because black beans have a bad temper, that is, they don’t eat what is in front of them, and they like to eat other people’s. It doesn't matter if you are at home, if you eat other people's horses' food and grass when you go out, you are provoking the owner of the horse, so every time Jian Heng came here, he tied the black beans to a place far away from the parting horses.
Now Sarah's bar is much bigger, and even the place where the horses were not used before has been created as a separate space, but if the business is good, there will definitely be competitors. Now the small bar in the town is not far away from Sarah. One hundred meters away, a new bar is being built. The owner of the bar is not from the surrounding people. He originally opened a small bar in the surrounding town of Kalispell, but seeing the popularity here, he moved the bar to here.
Of course, this matter has nothing to do with Jian Heng, and it is Sara's business to jump.
After tying up the horse, he tipped Dai Yingsheng, who was dedicated to serving the horse, five yuan, and Jian Heng turned to the door of the bar.
Stretching out his head to see that there were all people inside, Jian Heng didn't go in at all, and directly reached out his hand to signal the waiter to bring him a glass of whiskey, and then drank it while preparing to inquire about the Wolf King.
"Hey Mr. Sheen! Mr. Jean!"
A young man in his twenties immediately approached Jian Heng. The young man had red lips and white teeth. At a glance, he could tell that he was not a cowboy nearby, nor could he be someone who was looking for a living here. He looked very likely Nine is Yuji, not a bounty hunter, let alone a fan.
Whether it is a fan of a star or a fan with dark eyes, this young man doesn't look like one. He can tell at a glance that he is a child from the city, the kind who has just graduated from the University of Agriculture.
Some people may ask, there are fans with black eyes?
Sometimes I have to say that Americans are quite strange, just like some people believe in Satanism, and now some people worship four-eyed black.
As the super wolf king who is now paying special attention to the whole United States, Four Eyes Hei now not only has his own website, but also has his own fans, and even his own religion.
In Jian Heng's opinion, it's completely out of his mind, what kind of wolf **** religion, black wolf guards and so on, but he himself is having a good time, and the US government actually gave the green light to make these inconspicuous religious registrations a legal one. religion. In Jian Heng's eyes, this brain hole is very strange. It would be good if it is not banned in the country. How dare you make it public?
The most lively scene in the town now is the conflict between the supporters of the wolf king, the bounty hunters, and the victim ranchers. Every time there is a situation, the anti-riot police are dispatched. There is no anti-riot police in the small town. The anti-riot police stationed here are all transferred from the Kalispell Police Station.
There are dozens of anti-riot policemen alone, and eating horse chews every day is not a small sum of money.
Originally a small town of one or two hundred people, a sudden influx of almost a thousand people naturally made the town look particularly crowded, and at the same time, this kind of crowding also brought the smell of dollars.
"What's the matter?" Jian Heng asked lightly.
"Mr. Jean, do me a favor, I am reporter xx, and I want to do an exclusive interview with Mr. Blanca and Mr. Orlando," the reporter said.
"Then you ask their agent, you know it's useless to seek me, you're ruining my business" Jian Heng said, taking a sip of his wine lightly.
"I just want a chance!" said the young man.
Jian Heng said directly: "It is impossible for me to do this!"
Hearing Jian Heng's words, the young man's face paled, and he turned and left silently.
"You are really good, I think this child is very pitiful." Sarah walked to Jian Heng's side with a wine glass with a smile, and said after clinking the glass with Jian Heng lightly.
Jian Heng smiled indifferently and said: "If I pity him, someone will pity me soon. By the way, let's make this bar bigger. The weather is fine now. What about winter? Let me stand in the winter Then I won't come."
"The risk of further expansion is too great, so let's do it, once that bar opens, the flow of people will be separated." Sara can see it.
"Any news about the Wolf King?" Jian Heng asked.
Sarah said: "No, I just know that a group of British guys lost two men and three horses. They were besieged by wolves. No one has seen the wolf king, but all the old hunters know that he is nearby." .
It doesn’t need to be said by Sara, Jian Heng also felt that Four Eyes Hei is nearby, and after hiding for this period of time, Four Eyes Hei has become more cunning, and the hidden wolf king seems to be more deadly than the previous wolf king who charged into battle.
This is good news for Jian Heng. As long as the four-eyed black is not dead, the price of the ranch here will go down. This is good news for the upcoming auction of O'Brien Ranch.
