Lisko's American life
Chapter 54
"This is Rodriguez, a rancher in Fort Collins. He has a bad reputation and likes to buckle cowboys, so everyone is unwilling to work with him." The cock turned his head and explained to Lisko.
The rooster raised the placard again, and Rodri seemed to be on the bar with him, his eyes glaring, and followed him.
"Boy, I heard that you are working as a supervisor for a book writer. Did he give you so much money?" He stared at the cock closely, trying to put pressure on him.
"You don't have to worry about it. If you fail, give up and I won't laugh at you." The cock was unwilling to show weakness. He had been around here for so many years, and Rodri's tricks obviously couldn't scare him.
"The last time," the auctioneer saw the two aggravated, and began to control the market.
The rooster held the placard again, "Add a thousand dollars."
Rodri's face rose even more red, depressed for a while, and smashed the auction card to the ground, "You will lose money!"
After talking about the direct position, he came to this group of cattle this time. Now that he has failed, it is better to leave.
The rooster certainly wouldn't react to his words of defeat, so he went down with joy to look at the batch of calves he bought.
"It's not bad." The rooster broke his mouth and looked at the cow's teeth, then touched his leg.
Bob followed, "Congratulations, rooster."
"Why are you? Don't plan to buy some back?" The rooster was a little happy.
"Hey, you don’t know that my boss, a stingy Jew, did not work well last year, and he was reluctant to invest this year. Several of my colleagues have been laid off. There are currently two people left on the ranch. I don’t know. I will lose my job someday."
Bob's tone was full of frustration, and he took a sip from his hip flask.
"By the way, do you know cowgirls? Our ranch needs a cowgirl in charge of lavender." The rooster suddenly thought of the ranch's recruitment and asked him about the situation. Generally, Bob, a highly mobile cowboy, has good channels.
"Is it all for women? Men's, you know, mine is an old cowboy," Bob hurriedly asked. He was really fed up with his boss, and he heard that the rooster ranch paid a few bonuses last year. Ten thousand dollars, of course greedy.
"SORRY, Bob, we only lack one woman. The boss knows that we are rough, so we only accept women. I'm sorry." The cock shrugged, Lisko didn't say anything beside him, although he could open to recruit Bob , But he didn't know him. The cock was the supervisor, and he had his own reasons for not accepting Bob.
"I know one, but she is a bit difficult. I will call her to apply for the job tomorrow. You can see if you want to hire her." Bob was a little depressed.
"What's the problem?" The rooster was a little curious about what he said.
"You'll know if she goes there."
The rooster went to pay the money and left the address. The seller will be responsible for delivering the cattle. Of course, no freight will be charged. They will also be responsible for any losses on the road. The rooster is in charge of the accounts of the ranch. Brought a checkbook from the ranch.
"Complete the task, what to eat at noon?" It was noon, and the cock didn't expect it would be so smooth this time. He originally planned to have a hamburger at noon to deal with it.
"There is a TACO shop at this door, shall we go try it?" The rooster often comes here, his suggestion should be good.
TACO is a traditional Mexican snack. The main thing is to add beef, vegetable and cheese to fried corn crust. When Lisko came to the door, it looked like a roadside stall with simple decoration.
This is a Mexican restaurant, and Lisko has no objection. Perhaps the real food is often not very attractive in appearance.
Mexicans really like football. The store is decorated like a football club, with posters of various stars all around and flags of many countries hung on the top.
Li Sike went to get a meal, this TACO is very big, Li Sike took three, these should be enough.
In addition to the meat in TACO, the main dish is onion and coriander, and there is a green lemon next to it. Squeeze it up to make it taste better.
"Well~ very good." Lisko's evaluation of this is still good. Looking at the restaurant's introduction, the meat inside is whale meat. Apart from being a bit salty, it chews like beef.
Lisko eats and observes the surroundings. There are many trophies beside the decoration, which really looks like a football club.
The restaurant also sent potato chips, the crisp potato chips dipped in the provided sauce, unexpectedly delicious.
David and Rooster have been completely obsessed with food.
At the checkout, Lisko found a TACO for only six dollars, which means he was full after buying three for eighteen dollars.
On the way back to the city, the speed of the car was not so fast. Lisko listened to the music and looked at the roadside scenery. Everyone was in a good mood.
When he arrived at the ranch, Lisko threw the clothes he had worn into the washing machine and sat on the sofa in a daze.
Recently Lisko felt that there was something wrong with his relationship with Megan. The two did not quarrel. It felt as if Lisko had mentioned it many times after Christmas. He suffered from lovesickness. Megan seemed a little sensitive and felt that Lisko I don't want her to go out to film.The fiery love affair seemed to cool down all at once.
Every time Lisko hits, she is always filming. This feeling of being in a different place makes Lisko very frustrated.
He plans to visit Los Angeles in a few days, and by the way, talk to Megan and try to get understanding.
Liske poured himself into the sofa and looked at the ceiling. His personality was relatively plain. He had been with girlfriends when he was in college, and he felt that he was very boring and ended in a hurry.
He is quite weak for this feeling.
As soon as he slept, Lisko rode a lap in the morning. He has been doing this for more than a month, and the muscles that disappeared on his body have slowly returned to their original state.
"Huh~" Lisko led the white horse into the stable and exhaled a mouthful of white mist.
Today’s sunshine is just right. He plans to set up a shooting range in the woods behind the ranch. He hasn’t practiced for a long time, and he feels a little handy. Every time he goes to town, it’s very troublesome. It’s better to set up a simple one in his own home, where he can hit a bottle if nothing happens.
He opened the warehouse. There were a lot of leftovers for cowboys, wooden boards for repairing houses and ranch fences, and various tools. In the United States, the cost of hiring workers is very high, so adult men here are skilled in repairing. Sewers, roof repairs, car parts replacement, lawn repairs.
Lisko picked out a square-shaped plank from a pile of wood, and used a compass to draw a perfect circle on it.
"Om~ Zi Zi Zi,"
Lisko put on a special cowhide apron to prevent sawdust from flying into the clothes, and started cutting along the black line.
Soon the circular cut was completed. Lisko continued to draw black lines with compasses, and divided them into equal parts. Painted on the paint, and a gun target was completed. In theory, paper stickers are best, but Lisko I didn't bother to buy it in the town, it happened to have paint, and the ranch was not short of wood.
"Lee, are you there?"
When I was about to do the next step, I heard the rooster shout.
