Start by trimming cow hooves

Old cowboy Andy Isner.

He seems to have a hot temper and is not easy to get along with.

The old man wore a cowboy hat, a thick beard under his nose, brown short-sleeves, and a pair of jeans that had been washed until they turned white.

This look is enough for people to recognize his profession at a glance.

Suri really didn’t know how to herd cattle and sheep, so he replied calmly:

"I'm sick, suffering from ALS, and may be paralyzed in a few years. That's why I'm looking for help from an experienced cowboy like you. It might be a bit troublesome to manage the ranch myself, but I'll try my best. "

Hear the words.

Old Andy, who had just said in a mocking tone that he was a layman, suddenly became stiff.

Suddenly I felt restless and felt guilty, feeling that I really deserved death.

I originally thought that in order to avoid being bullied at work in the future, I would give the new boss some color. At least, I would let Su Rui know that she was not someone to be trifled with and show her strong stance.

Who would have thought that such a thing would happen.

His tone immediately became softer. The old cowboy Andy took off his hat and added:

"Sorry, I didn't know that before. The Blackberry Ranch where I used to work is also a giant ranch. I believe that with my forty-five years of work experience, I should be able to help you..."

Suri glanced at Daju subconsciously.

The fat cat was playing with its tail. The thick tail seemed not to obey it and could not catch it. It was amusing itself and having a great time.

When it mentioned being sick the night before yesterday, it threw a strange bead to itself.

Although I haven't figured out what it is yet, Suri has been quite energetic in the past day or so and is not always weak like some time ago.

Since he hasn't gone to the hospital for a checkup, Su Rui doesn't know what the situation is, but he knows that his body does seem to have undergone some good changes. At least it no longer looks like a porcelain doll, and it will make him tired after taking a few steps. Panting.

He returned his gaze to the old cowboy Andy and asked curiously: "Forty-five years of work experience? You look only forty or fifty years old, right?"

"Yes, I just turned fifty-one last month, and I'm still in great shape! I can always suppress horses that others can't tame. I've been growing up in a herd of cattle since I can remember."

Older people are always unwilling to accept old age.

As soon as Old Andy finished speaking, he realized that it was obviously inappropriate to praise his physical fitness in front of Suri. His expression suddenly became awkward and he continued to deserve death.

Suri didn't care about this. He was not that fragile and sensitive. He stood up and said with a smile:

"We'll learn about the rest later. Let's go to the cargo terminal first. There's been a little rain this year, and I heard that the grass isn't growing as well as expected. Do you want to buy some more grass?"

"Hawaii is warm all year round, and many places on Lanai have relatively high altitudes, which are indeed suitable for the growth of pasture. Calves do not eat much, so there is no need to purchase forage for the time being. I suggest building another fermentation tank to centrally process cow manure. , it’s time to use these natural fertilizers to make up for the depletion of land fertility when planting pineapples.”

Old cowboy Andy's suggestion made Suri feel very good. He nodded and said:

"Then let's build one. Our ranch will receive tourists in the future. Cow dung everywhere will not be beautiful."

Old Andy didn't think about whether it looked good or not, he just said:

"When I was at Blackberry Ranch, the weather was relatively cold in winter, and the biogas emitted by the cow dung was used for heating, which saved a lot of fuel costs. Hawaii was so comfortable that I didn't even bring winter clothes."

"Fortunately, you didn't bring it with you. It won't be of use on Lanai. We all have to adapt to this new environment. I hope we can cooperate well in the future."

Even though Suri has stepped into the club of the super rich, he actually doesn’t have much experience in managing employees.

He likes to make easy money through investing and free rides.

Only in downtown Los Angeles, there is an investment office with a total of twelve employees, who help with legal affairs, accounting, financial analysis and other tasks.

Treating people sincerely at this time made old cowboy Andy feel that the new owner seemed to be very good, but it was a pity that such a good young man had an incurable disease.

We drove to the simple cargo terminal.

The pier is only for personal use. It docks the newly purchased 36-meter-long Azmu yacht. It is also convenient for transporting goods, so there is no need to be too fancy.

When Suri got off the bus, he found that cattle and sheep were being driven off the boat from the wooden planks.

Seeing countless bleating sheep gathering together, his heart moved, he put his hand to his mouth and shouted "咩咩~"

Sheep and lambs of many varieties immediately followed the trend and bleated.

Old Andy didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He patted Suri on the shoulder and said, "I also liked to play like this when I was a child. I have to do business first. I will lead people to count the number of cattle and sheep, and then drive them to the pasture."

Finally, we have a spacious grassland where we can raise some pets.

Suri specially ordered fifty alpacas, ten mini highland cattle, five mini horses and five mini donkeys. This time they were delivered together with the cattle ship and driven aside separately.

I can only say that imagination is better than reality.

There were so many livestock gathered together and the weather was relatively hot. The strong smell reached Tianling Gai, making Su Rui dizzy.

There are sheep shit and eggs everywhere, and you will get hit if you are not careful. Daju, who just took a bath yesterday, is now holding Suri's thigh for a hug.

Although it is fat, it is short. Facing the densely packed cattle and sheep, this guy can't see anything.

…

It took half a day to check the registration.

Old Andy had a pair of vicious eyes. He quickly picked out a few cattle and sheep that were not healthy enough, and bargained with the suppliers to modify the bill price.

These cattle and sheep have been hungry for a long time after being transported by sea.

Before they spread out and cause harm to the primitive jungle, a new employee first brought some freshly harvested forage, which is a kind of nutritious ryegrass. He drove a pickup truck in front, attracting them with the forage, and slowly walked towards the pasture.

Suri's nose has failed and he can't do anything else at the moment. He feeds some mini highland cattle with fodder.

This kind of cow is very small and has long hair. After trimming, it looks like a big toy. It looks very cute and has a docile temper.

Old cowboy Andy always had a hard time saying anything when he saw his boss trying to fish, so he rode an authentic American horse breed - a quarter horse, and said to Suri:

"I'll go take a look at the front first. The employees don't understand at all. There are three cows with hoof problems. Although the purchase price is a bit high, they are generally a good batch of livestock. If I need it, I can contact you. I contacted my previous boss and he found a way to get authentic Australian Wagyu beef, which is the real money-making cow."

Wagyu, even if Suri is a layman, he has certainly heard of this breed of cattle.

He asked blankly: "Isn't the Wagyu from Japan? What kind of Australian Wagyu is it?"

Sitting steadily on the horse, holding the long whip used to drive cattle and sheep in his hand, old Andy explained:

"Actually, they are Japanese Wagyu. Before the export ban was enacted, someone imported a batch to Australia twenty years ago. The genetic similarity with Japanese Wagyu is more than 90%. The ranch where I used to work imported a batch from Australia at a high price. I am responsible for taking care of the breeding cattle, which is more suitable for people like you who are not short of money."

Obediently speaking, it seems that the price of purchasing the cattle and sheep in front of me is indeed a bit high.

Although the old cowboy Andy didn't say it clearly, Suri had already guessed that in the eyes of the other party, the word "taken advantage of" might be engraved on his forehead.

Anyway, raising cattle and raising some high value-added varieties can also improve the reputation and quality of this new ranch.

Su Rui said nothing and decided directly:

"Then I'll trouble you to ask. It's best to buy some breeding cattle. Just now you said that there is something wrong with the hooves of some cows. You must call me when you want to repair the hooves."

"……no problem."

Old Andy was confused and couldn't figure out why Suri was interested in trimming cow's hooves.

When talking about the cause, we should also mention that in the past life, watching cow hoof trimming before going to bed, or watching a knife forging competition, would always relieve stress and help sleep.

It’s a rare opportunity to observe live, and Suri certainly doesn’t want to miss it…
