Chapter 695 Nervous

  At noon, he took He Ye to have dinner together. After the meal, Jian Heng took He Ye's driver and bodyguard, and just got four of them to play cards together.

Jian Heng's side is very boring, but the American side is much more lively. Many people, including Barley and Wheat, are destined to have a sleepless night tonight, because as soon as the sun sets, the howling of wolves in the mountains will be louder. One after another, the sound was endless.

Damai arranged everything about the ranch, for fear that the wolves would target their ranch. Although she couldn't understand what kind of news the wolves wanted to convey, but out of the idea of ​​preventing accidents, Damai asked Toby to arrange The cowboy guarded the barn.

"Sister, who has provoked the wolves again?" Mai Mai didn't think too much, she is now concentrating on the magazine in her hand, for Maimai, the sky is falling and there is a big problem, so she can't be bothered Don't care about things.

   "Who knows!" Damai looked worried.

  Sun Xiuying said: "Do you want to call Xiaoheng?"

  Barley said: "No need, what effect can he have if he is so far away, let's be careful here! You can rest early."

   "Aren't you going to sleep?" Sun Xiuying asked.

  Barley replied: "I don't want to sleep yet, you go to sleep first and I will go back to the room."

Sun Xiuying opened her mouth and said: "Damai, go to sleep, even if you don't sleep, the child should rest. I will watch here tonight. If there is nothing wrong, I will call you. I don't sleep much when I am old. nothing!"

  Barley said: "Let me do it, you are so old, don't stay up late with everyone."

   "Why stay up late? I want to stay up too!"

   At this moment, Ning Ning pushed open the door and swept the room like a gust of wind. Instant Noodles and Pooh followed behind, and Xiao An and Denver entered the door last.

   "Your child, just go to bed and you won't go to school tomorrow morning?" Sun Xiuying scolded.

Ning Ning shrank her head and stuck out her tongue after hearing this, and slowly approached Mai Mai. Seeing that the adults didn't notice her, she lowered her voice and asked Mai Mai: "Sister Mai, who wants to stay up late to watch the show?" ?”

This small town can almost be said to be a city that never sleeps. The Chinese tourists who flocked in to prepare for a snowy New Year saw such a snowy scene. After an hour, the small town will be quiet.

  Tourists don't sleep, and the townspeople who make money naturally accompany the tourists cheerfully. While collecting money, they complain from time to time about the lack of energy of the Chinese tourists.

  Mait continued to flip through the magazine in his hand, and casually said to Ningning: "It's not to go to the show, it's because we are afraid that wolves will attack our livestock."

Ning Ning patted his chest and said: "What are you afraid of? If the wolves come, I will take Pooh up, hold them down and beat them violently. After the beating, I will ask them if they are still coming. Shouting for mercy, while saying that I will never dare to do it again next time!"

   Speaking of which, Ningning himself was amused by the scene he rendered, covering his mouth and laughing like a little hen that just laid eggs.

The little girl smiled triumphantly, and immediately attracted Sun Xiuying's attention. Seeing her mother glaring at herself again, the little girl immediately suppressed her smile, and the expression of wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh made Mai Mai amused up.

  Jane Heng’s ranch has made arrangements for today, but several large ranches that have always been the focus of wolves’ attacks are now a little bit waxy, especially the Edwin Harrison Marcus Ranch Company.

Old Edwin, as the largest shareholder, is also the big boss who owns a 50,000-acre ranch in Texas. He now has an angry expression on his face. After scolding American **** for ten minutes in the office, this Pushing open the door, he said to his secretary, "Call Bruce in!"

  The secretary looked hesitant to speak, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to speak when he saw the furious boss.

"What's the matter, tell me!" Old Edwin is in a very bad mood now. Although the pasture made little money in the past, it was always making money. The amount of money posted is not 12 million, but nearly 10 million US dollars are posted every year. Old Edwin is very dissatisfied with this.

Not only old Edwin, but other major shareholders, such as the Harrison family and the Marcus family have lost confidence in this ranch, and have expressed to Edwin several times their decision to sell their shares. The price of this pasture is not what it used to be. Because of the influence of wolves, the value of this pasture is now less than 70% of what it was before. This is the case when someone wants to take over. If no one takes over, then This ranch is just worthless.

Of course, if it is too low, everyone will not sell it. Even if the land is empty, it is still valuable, so what is the biggest hope for the two big stocks now? I hope that old Edwin can use one' Take away the shares they have acquired at a reasonable price.

Old Edwin is not stupid. Although he is not too ready to give up this ranch, he does not want to bear a loss of tens of millions of dollars a year. It's a lot of money to pay taxes in time.

  The secretary said: "BOSS, Bruce has resigned, and he went to Steven Ranch to be a tourist manager."

   "Damn it!" Old Edwin cursed again.

As an old capitalist, old Edwin doesn’t think it’s his fault to cut salary, and he doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with dismissing employees. In his mind, the ranch belongs to everyone, and everyone should “sacrifice” for the ranch like himself. .

   It’s just that the employees don’t agree with old Edwin’s idea. For the cowboys who work on the ranch, the ranch has never been theirs. The cowboys are not stupid. When the ranch is good, they get their own wages. When the ranch is booming, they still get the same wages. All the money is earned by the boss. They are just part-time workers, taking their wages to support a family of industrial workers. It's useless to sing such a high-pitched tune with such a big emotion! Who can feed their wives and children well and make the family live a worry-free life is the ability.

   "Who else is there?"

   After saying two names in a row, the secretary said he had resigned, so old Edwin had to ask the secretary.

  A good cowboy doesn’t have to worry about work in the town now, not to mention anything else, the most basic horse for a good cowboy is riding well, right? Just use this skill to teach those Chinese tourists who don’t know anything after the tour, the income after a week is no different from the income of the ranch at the best time. If you encounter generous Chinese tourists, you can just tip them. Let the cowboys laugh, who wants to waste their time on a ranch that is not profitable.

   Isn’t there a saying: Time is money!

   "The current cowboy supervisor is Mike"

"Then let him come to see me!" Old Edwin didn't even know who this Mike was, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't have the concept of Mike in his mind. First, there were too many Mikes here in the United States, and second, it was the old ranch. There were plenty of cowboys, and old Edwin couldn't name them all.

  The secretary was just about to go out in the new year, when he saw the door pushed open and a cowboy under 30 years old walked in.

   "Mike, the boss is calling you"

   When the secretary saw that it was Mike who came in, it happened to be a coincidence, and I saved a lot of running.

  Mike nodded at the secretary, then walked up to old Edwin, and said nothing else: "Boss, I want to change my job, the job here is not suitable for me."

  Old Edwin wanted to curse, but he held back, nodded and said, "I see!"

   "Thank you!" Mike turned and left.

   "Fuck, Fuck!"

  When Mike left the office, Old Edwin couldn't bear it any longer, and just stomped his feet and cursed a few times.

The secretary saw that his boss was half-crazy, turned around carefully and left the office, brought Xiao Pao to the place where the cowboys were working, and brought a cowboy who had been in the ranch for a long time, and sent it to his house as a temporary supervisor. In front of the boss.

  The task assigned by old Edwin was very simple. He had to defend himself all night, and be careful to guard against possible attacks from wolves.

  The cowboy supervisor who just took office is relatively timid, and his personality is a little timid. If it weren't for that, he wouldn't be picked up by the secretary. He couldn't stop saying yes to show that he knew, but he felt a big worry in his heart, because no matter how good the arrangement is, what should no one do? Isn't that just nonsense?

   Having said that, even today's cowboys, who would still face the wolves? What if they get injured? The ranch pays for medical expenses? Want to litigate more with your boss? The average cowboy has no money to hire a good lawyer. What is the most important thing? Now the treatment of the ranch is not as good as before, and it is not worth everyone to work hard for such a pitiful salary.

   After receiving the task, the newly appointed cowboy supervisor returned to the office and assigned the task. What he said sounded clear, but the dejected cowboys in the room were all listless like eggplants beaten by frost.

Similar to the Edwin Harrison Marcus Ranch Company, there is also the North African Eagle Ranch, but the situation of the North African Eagle Ranch is better, because they are not short of money now, and the person who just took over the ranch is a Chinese tycoon , I heard that they also play basketball or something, anyway, it's just two words: rich!

   So things are much better for the Cowboys here. The money is enough, and the cowboys here are even talking louder.

   At this time, a cowboy suddenly opened the door: "Boss, wolves appeared near our ranch!"

"Cheer up, guys! The old man Taizu said well that man will conquer nature, and I don't believe what a pack of wolves can do!" The Asian face in his fifties waved his hand firmly, like a commanding thousand The commander-in-chief of the army.

   "Okay, Boss!"

The voices of the cowboys’ answers can overturn the roof, which makes the Asian boss very satisfied, but he doesn’t know that these cowboys are not happy to face the wolves in their hearts, but now they have figured out their own boss’s mind, and work hard. It doesn't matter if it's a bit bad, but when facing the boss, you must be energetic, and you must be able to express yourself in front of the boss, just like the current supervisor, who has no other skills except flattery. twice the salary.

  Different from Montana, Jian Heng played cards all afternoon, with net losses and no wins, and he was so happy to die.
