The American Scripture

Lecce, Montana.

Snow has covered the entire town. People in the town are in the house. Only a few people drove the grass slowly dragging the fodder in the pasture. This was prepared for the cows and horses to spend the winter because of this sudden heavy snowfall. , Half of the forage has been covered by heavy snow.

"Hey, boy, where are you going?" The fat middle-aged man who drove the car and dragged grass jumped out of the car. When he refastened the tarp that was blown away by the wind, he saw one A man walking alone in the town, with his head down, his collar upright, and snow on his hair.

"I want to find a place to eat, I am not familiar with this town! So... I haven't found it yet!" The man approached, a very young man with a very friendly smile on his face, and The backpack on his back is also full of snow, and he looks like a traveler who has walked a long distance.

"No wonder you can't find it. We have a bar here, but it's not a bar sign. We call it'Jack's Treasure'. Yes, that's the word. If you want to go, I can bring it. You go, but you have to wait until I put this cart of fodder into the warehouse."

"Okay, I'll wait for you!" The young man was standing, really watching him reversing into the warehouse, then dumping the whole cart of fodder, and then waiting for the middle-aged man to come out. He is still standing on the snow.

"Let's go, boy, I want to have a drink now, maybe I will buy you a drink again!" The man said, taking off his gloves and reaching out to Zhen Fan. The two shook hands, "Anthony Hughes, you can call me a drunkard. Because I like to drink, and I like to hear people call me like that!"

"Very special hobby!" The young man smiled, followed behind Anthony Hughes, and walked towards a seemingly ordinary house not far away. The young people just passed by there, and could not see that it was a bar, no different from ordinary residents' houses.

In fact, it is the room of ordinary residents. After remodeling the living room, a large bar counter was made and several tables were placed. It became a bar. Looking at the lintel, it really reads "Jack's Treasure", it seems. The owner here is Jack.

Jack is an old man in his sixties. The hair is half gray, but the people are very energetic. There are about a dozen tables in the room, and only two of them are people, so there are only eight people in the whole bar. They are not very crowded, and they are scattered, which seems a bit deserted. Up.

"Hey. Anthony, have you brought a guest here? Why have I never seen it?" The drinker over there said hello to Anthony? Jack shouted.

"I picked him up on the road. I'm hungry!" Anthony took Zhen Fan to pick a table and sat down, then snapped his fingers at the old man on the counter and said, "Hey, old Jack, give this guy. Here's a pizza! He's starving, and two more glasses of absinthe. The **** weather came too suddenly."

Old Jack took two cups and put them on the table with "pop" and "pop", then looked at the young man, frowned and said, "Are you Asian?" When he entered the house , The snow on the young man's hair has been shed some, revealing his black hair, plus his face, it is easy to recognize an Asian.

"For preparation, I am a Chinese!" The young man smiled, "I have been in the United States for more than two years, but I am still too familiar with this place from time to time. I try to walk around, so... you are here. Saw me!"

"I like Chinese!" Anthony Hughes said with a smile, "but you are the first Chinese I have ever met, of course not on TV, but in front of me."

"Me too, although I don't hate Chinese people, but...I won't welcome them either!" Old Jack said, turning around and leaving. He really left without a trace of emotion. He walked two steps and looked back. Zhen Fan, "Your pizza will be here soon. Tell me, young man, do you plan to stay here?"

"Well, such a heavy snow, it seems that I can't walk today, so... If there is a place to stay, I hope I can stay here for one night, and then leave tomorrow!" The young man said and looked at the old Jack. "Can you stay here? Of course... the price can't be too expensive."

"Fortunately for you!" Old Jack snorted and left.

"Don't mind, he is deeply guarded against every stranger who comes to this town. This is the same as when he was robbed by two strangers ten years ago, and... he His wife also died in that robbery! So...you understand him!"

"Of course, I understand!" The young man nodded.

After Anthony Hughes finished speaking, he took a glass of wormwood bitter and drank it all at once, and then said with a sigh of relief: "This wine is full of energy, I feel lazy, young man, after drinking this glass, unload Relieve the cold! By the way, what is your name? Can you tell me?"

"Of course!" said the young man, "Bruce Zhen!" After he finished speaking, he held up this glass of mugwort and drank it in one go. This high-level liquor is very effective. After a cup, the cold inside the body is almost gone.

"Where are you going? No purpose?" After a drink, the two became familiar, and Anthony said to the young man, "This kind of weather really makes people afraid to go out."

"There is no purpose, wherever I go, if the snow is too big, I can only stay here, maybe I should still find a job, you know... the journey is long, so... I always Only by walking and working can my journey continue." The young man gestured.

"It happens that I am here alone to take care of my horse. This year the **** homeless man, lazy man and thief did nothing, so he left and took away my two thousand dollars and a horse, so you see When it gets there, I have to do everything by myself, and even delayed the warehousing of the fodder. If possible, I hope you can stay and help me!"

The young man thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Very happy, but...I don't have a place to live, can I sleep in your warehouse?"

"You don't have to sleep in the warehouse. I have a utility room next to the warehouse. You can live there. Of course you have to solve the problem of eating by yourself. I won't care about this." Anthony said to the young man, " I can pay you fifty dollars a day!"

In this way, the monthly salary is about 1,500 US dollars. This is a more appropriate price for a rookie, and it is not because of Bruce Zhen’s Asian status that there is discrimination.

"I think about it!" Bruce Zhen showed a grateful look.

"When you finish eating, I hope you have a decision!" Anthony Hughes nodded, snapped his fingers and said, "Jack, give me another glass, just one!"

Old Jack appeared, with a plate of pizza in his hand and a glass of absinthe. After placing the wine glass on the table, the plate with the pizza was placed in front of Bruce Zhen, the plate shook, and it stabilized on the table.

"Jack, where is our little sparrow? Why didn't we come out to help you?" Anthony Hughes asked.

"She is helping Roselie at home. Someone has to clear a way in the heavy snow today." Old Jack said and continued to walk to the counter to wipe the glass. The business was very deserted at this time, I don't know that it is usually not the case.

Bruce Zhen thought, and then finished the pizza on the plate, put down the knife and fork, and then smiled contentedly on his face, and asked, "What is his daughter's name?"

"Rachel." Anthony asked, "how are you thinking about it? You know, now I need to clean things manually, please leave my house, warehouse and fodder, it's spring, and I don’t have enough manpower, I need A helper, if you want to, stay. By the way, would you drive a tractor?"

"No problem!" Bruce Zhen nodded.

"Okay, when you agree, I can't give you a contract, but don't worry, I won't pay you a dollar less. After drinking this cup, you will go back with me!" Anthony faced Bruce Zhen Said.

"Okay, sir!" Bruce Zhen did not object.

After drinking a cup of wormwood, Anthony stood up, walked to the counter, took out a few banknotes, checked out, and said to old Jack: "From today, this person is my hired worker. What is his name? Tell me. The old man!"

"Bruce? Zhen!" The young man told his name honestly~www.wuxiaspot.com~Hey boy, I have no interest in your name, but... I warn you, don't try to treat the girls here Any thoughts, or I won't let you go! "Old Jack stared at Bruce Zhen.

"Okay, let's go, there is still a lot to do. From now on, help me do the work!" Anthony said, patted Zhen Fan on the shoulder, and the two walked out of the bar one after the other. .

"Why does Jack look hostile to me? Am I looking very vicious or is it because I am a Chinese?" Bruce Zhen said afterwards, "I can feel his unkindness to me! I can still Come here for a drink?"

"Of course!" Anthony laughed. "Do you know why he is hostile to you? He is hostile to all the young people in this small town because he is afraid that his daughter will be affected by young people like you. Seduce. Aha, to be honest, leave this old guy alone, being young is a very good thing."

"Oh, I see, thank you!" Bruce Zhen said, standing up his collar again, followed by Anthony, who wrapped himself tightly with a hat, stepping into the snow. (To be continued...)
