Little Life on An American Ranch

Chapter 219: The Luck of Finding a Job

After tidying up the clothes on his body, he deliberately pulled the collar and flattened it, then took off the hat in his hands, and did not take the wine that Elizabeth handed over. Toby went to the bathroom first, and went I patted some cold water on my face, so that my already a little drunken mind was completely sober.

After wiping his hands, Toby looked at himself in the mirror, then straightened his back, pushed open the door and walked towards the bar with big strides.

Jian Heng saw Toby straighten up from his seat, and was about to greet him with a wine glass, who knew that he hadn't made any moves yet, seeing Toby go directly into the toilet without even holding the wine glass, he suddenly smiled It condensed on the face.

Heart said: Damn, am I putting my hot face on the cold ass of the previous family?

Thinking of this, Jian Heng shrugged his shoulders and turned his face away, took a few sips of the wine in his hand, then took out another bill from his wallet and pressed it under the cup, settled the bill, turned and left the bar .

Sara was busy with a few guests at this time, and she realized that Jian Heng was about to walk to the door, and that Toby had gone somewhere, so she wanted to ask out of curiosity, but Jian Heng's people were already standing there. At the door, he stretched out his hand and pushed the door and walked out.

Sarah took the money, shook her head with a strange expression, and said in a low voice, "Weird!"

As soon as I finished saying something strange, I just put the cup in my hand back into the cup sink, when I heard Toby's voice behind me: "Sara, where is Mr. Jean?"

Turning her face away, Sarah asked curiously, "Where did you go just now?"

"I went to wipe my face. I was afraid that my mind would not be clear when I was talking to Mr. Jean. Can I ask others?" At this time, Toby hadn't put his hat back on his head. The head pressed by the hat is not pretty, and tiny drops of water can be seen on the side of the face.

Sarah could understand Toby's mood now, and hoped that he could find a job. After all, it was not easy for everyone, so she pointed at the door: "Hurry up,

Gene just got out! "

Hearing what Sarah said, Toby thanked her and hurriedly chased her out.

Pushing open the door, Toby searched around, and soon saw Jian Heng who was already on the horse. At this moment, he was about to turn the horse's head with the rein.

"Mr. Gene, wait!" Toby yelled quickly, and then took a step forward, striding towards Heidou's side.

Suddenly seeing a person rushing towards him, Heidou immediately turned his body sideways and assumed a defensive posture. If this uninterested person rushed forward, Heidou would not mind using his hoof to give this person Take a lesson.

Seeing Heidou's movements, Toby stopped quickly, and he just stopped almost at the range line that made the horse feel safe.

This alone made Jian Heng give him a little praise in his heart. As a former cowboy, Jian Heng clearly distinguishes between luck and skill.

"Mr. Jean, I'm Toby, Toby Blair! Nice to meet you. Oh, forgot, thank you for the wine." Toby put the hat in his hand to the side of his leg.

Seeing that he was so polite, Jian Heng couldn't bear to straddle the horse so carelessly, turned over and got off the horse, and stretched out his hand to Toby: "Hello, you can call me Gene, Or call me Henry!"

After Toby and Jian Heng shook hands, they went straight to the topic.

Originally, the old American culture is not very good at going around in circles, and this is another cowboy with a serious straight intestines. As soon as he put down the hand with Jian Heng, he immediately asked about work.

"Is your ranch short of staff?" Toby asked.

Seeing Jian Heng nodded, Toby said again: "I have been working on the ranch since I was sixteen years old. My family used to have a small ranch and sold it. I have been in this business for almost seventeen years. Yes, rich experience in ranch work...".

While listening to Toby's introduction, Jian Heng looked at the cowboy in front of him with his eyes. He saw that his clothes were not neat, but they were not too dirty. Cowboys were like this. They smelled like cow dung. No time for self-care.

Look at Toby's hand again. There are many calluses on the palm and the back of the hand. You can also see some special places on the palm. This is a sign that only old cowboys have. If you want to grind it out slowly, it's nothing like seven or eight years. It is impossible to have such an effect. This is the imprint left by weaving leather strips, just like a piece of wrist bone will protrude when playing computer and keyboard for many years.

"I heard you used to work at the Edwin Harrison Marcus Ranch?" Jian Heng asked.

Hearing Jian Heng's question, Toby's face suddenly darkened, but soon Toby adjusted, and opened his mouth and said: "Yes, I made some mistakes in my work! So I was eliminated by the ranch! "

After finishing speaking, he added a sentence in the self-contained interface: "Well, it was a serious mistake, that night...".

Jian Heng didn't expect that this person would give a brief description of what happened that night. Although he didn't listen in detail, Jian Heng could understand how a living person would feel when facing a strong male wolf.

Let's put it this way, those who condemn Toby now include cowboys. Out of a hundred people, at most one and a half people can keep calm under the situation at that time. The most instinctive subconscious self-preservation behavior.

What's more, with a distance of only one or two meters, facing a North American male wolf in his prime? Jian Heng thinks this is too normal, and not everyone is like a buddy, who has the body protection of the secret space and the ability to smash the air.

"I will try my best to learn from this experience in the future, Mr. Jean, please give..." Toby wanted to get this job very much, and after talking about the mistakes he made, he began to lobby Jian Heng.

But when he saw Jian Heng raised his arm, he immediately stopped talking. He felt that the Asian rancher in front of him had already made a decision.

Sure enough, Jian Heng first talked about the treatment, that is, the monthly salary or something. The salary at Jianheng Ranch is not bad, higher than the average small ranch, but not as good as that offered by Edwin Harrison Marcus Ranch.

"We have dividends at the end of the year. I said the end of the year is Chinese New Year, not Christmas. Of course, we will have a little money at Christmas, but it won't be as much as Chinese New Year..." Jian Heng finished talking about salary, Then we talked about bonuses.

Toby is naturally very happy to give more money, but he doesn't know how much the boss in front of him can give, but even if he doesn't give it, because of the not bad salary, Toby will accept it, With this salary in hand, he didn't have to go to Kalispell or further cities to find work.

"I have no problem!" When Toby said this, his heart was singing, and suddenly he felt that his body was warming up.

Jian Heng didn't talk too much nonsense. Anyway, he found a manpower, and it seems that the standard should be pretty good. As for Toby's so-called mistake, Jian Heng didn't take it to heart at all.

In Jian Heng's view, Toby is only working for the Edwin Harrison Marcus Ranch, and there is no requirement for Toby to die for his work. He is ready to let him pay two to three thousand dollars a month Fighting for you with your life? This is a bit too much!

When Jian Heng worked for others, he never thought of selling his life to anyone, so when he was a boss, he didn't have the stupid idea of ​​giving employees two or three thousand a month to make them work for him.

"When can I come to work?" Jian Heng asked.

Toby snapped the hat back on his head: "I can do it now!"

"Forget it today. Tomorrow, come here tomorrow morning. In the afternoon, I will ask a lawyer to come over and sign an employment contract with you. What I want to say here is that you can only rest one day a week here. It is not the original ranch. That's it," Jian Heng said.

Toby nodded to express his understanding. He worked five days a week and took two days off. He worked eight hours a day and went home either to go to nightclubs or go shopping and drink with friends. That was life in a big city like New York.

If any cowboy wants to put this set of work on the ranch, he will definitely not be able to eat the cowboy’s rice. Sometimes the cowboy’s rice needs to be 24 hours a day. It’s impossible for the cow to drink big wine when he’s sick. Go, the cow is about to give birth, you went to see the little girl dance.

Generally, the cowboys who do this will end up so poor that they can’t even afford to drink. They can only sit on the street with an empty coffee cup in their hands while begging for money while watching the free thighs of girls passing by on the street.

Jian Heng was very happy to hear his promise, so he turned over and got on the horse again: "Then let's see you tomorrow morning!"

"See you tomorrow morning! Mr. Gene" Toby watched Jian Heng disappearing from sight with a smile all over his face, and then turned back to the bar.

Seeing his appearance, Sarah knew that this man had found a job, so without waiting for Toby to speak, Sarah took out a clean glass and poured Toby a glass of wine.

"I invite you!" Sarah pushed the cup in front of Toby.

Toby said happily, "Thank you!"

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at the corner in front of him, and found that the wine given by his new boss was still there, so he stretched out his finger: "I still have a glass over there!"

"That one is that one, and this one is what I ordered." As expected of a businessman, Sarah smiled and gestured to Toby.

Thanks again, Toby took the cup and walked back to the original place. While drinking, he took out his mobile phone, called his wife immediately, and told her the good news that he had found a job.

This afternoon, both Jian Heng and Toby were happy. Jian Heng found a good cowboy, Toby found a job that could make a living, and even the owner of the bar, Sa Lardo had a guest who could afford to drink later.

All in all, today is a good day!

Jian Heng urged Heidou to trot back to the pasture, only then remembered that he was going to enter the space in the morning to kill the raccoon, who knew that he hadn't finished the matter yet.

So I decided to get the job done!
