Chapter 8 Purchase System
Taking advantage of Zhang Chi's boots changing, the owner asked, "Where are you buying the ranch?"
Zhang Chidao: "Near Amber Town".
The owner thought about it and was a little curious, so he asked, "There is a small ranch for sale over there?"
"A small piece of the original lion ranch" said Zhang Chi.
"Oh, it turns out there." The owner understood when he heard this, but asked again: "You are from the foot of that mountain, right?"
Zhang Chi smiled and said, "Yes, where can I afford it elsewhere."
The owner smiled and said, "It's already great. You can buy a ranch by yourself at only a few years old."
He owns a ranch in his twenties, and no one can say that Zhang Chi, the child, is not motivated.
Zhang Chi smiled after hearing this, put on his shoes and stood up. He stepped on the ground twice. He thought the shoes on his feet were quite suitable, so he prepared to pay.
"Would you like to buy some other things? I have a bridle and a saddle..." The owner introduced it.
Zhang Chi smiled and said, "I haven't bought my horse yet."
"Then I have to buy it even more. Besides, there are a few people who still make saddles based on horseback. They are all machine saddles, and we don't produce them anymore. They are all handed over to the children's sweatshops in Chen Town. Americans are now becoming lazy..." said the owner.
Zhang Chi couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and he did not refute it. Most Americans think that the goods they use now are produced by factories hiring child labor. This is the propaganda that the American media smears domestically.
But they don’t know that if you build a factory in Chen Town now, the cost of the factory land alone can scare a large number of Americans to death.
The one-square meter house in the SAR is almost comparable to New York. The children's factory there? Comedy.
However, Zhang Chi didn't want to explain, but some people are too stubborn and it is difficult to reverse their ideas. They want to reverse a person's inherent thinking. Zhang Chi has no time, and no such leisure.
Zhang Chi tried it before, and someone with a red face and thick neck would offend people.
"If the price is not expensive, I will buy it. If the price is too expensive, I can't afford it now," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
"The machine saddle is at this price everywhere you go, it cannot be expensive," said the owner.
Zhang Chi thought to himself, let’s take a look.
So the owner asked, "What horse are you going to buy? The ranch is usually Quat, and there are some cabbage horses. My suggestion that if you buy horses, buy Quat, which is suitable for ranch, and don't buy the kind with blood certificate. That thing is of no use except cheating you for two yuan. If you want to buy it, you can buy it. If you want to make a good cowboy in the ranch, it is usually only more than 400 US dollars per horse. Don't go to economic people. The most unreal thing is these people, all of them are vampires..."
Zhang Chi knew that the owner's advice was quite reliable. There are many horse breeds in the United States. So you can find almost all the horse breeds in the world in the United States, but if Quater is really suitable for ranch, he will probably be embarrassed to say that he is the first in other horse breeds.
There are usually only a few types of horses used in nearby ranches, such as Quarter, American riding horse, flower horse, and Morgan horse. The most important two are the first two.
"Quat, I'm going to raise calfs on the ranch," said Zhang Chi.
After hearing this, the shop owner directly picked a pair of saddles for Zhang Chi.
"You can take it back and try it. If it is not suitable, you can exchange it. As long as it doesn't break it or there are obvious scars, it's fine," said the owner.
Zhang Chi looked at the saddle in his hand, with a brown leather, and a huge village head on the front bridge. This is the most obvious sign of the grazing saddle. The usual riding saddle head is a decoration.
The saddle is very ordinary and there is nothing to choose from. Just as the shop owner said, it is all mechanical saddles, and the size and regulations are almost the same.
The goods from the assembly line are cheap, and it is not suitable for you to think about anything.
As for handmade saddles, they are almost all customized, with a price of thousands to tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. If you want to choose, you have to ask how deep your pocket is.
Anyway, Zhang Chi is still reluctant to pay this money to customize this thing.
With a saddle, you have to get one sweat pad. With a sweat pad, will you have to get one bridle?
Originally, Zhang Chi came to buy a pair of shoes, but in the end he was a mess, he spent more than 300 dollars in the store.
The shop owner smiled and took Zhang Chi's money, then turned around and picked up a hat from the hat stand next to him and handed it to Zhang Chi: "This is a gift!"
Zhang Chi glanced at the hat and did not dare to reach out to pick it up, because the color of the hat made him a little scared.
"What's wrong?"
Zhang Chi smiled and pointed at the hat: "This color is not a good hat color in our culture."
The owner gave Zhang Chi's hat that was green and solemn, the light green one was like the prairie in spring, the green one was so lively and the green one was so open.
Green is very danced and very beautiful. This is what Americans think, but for us Chinese, there are a few people who are not afraid of this color.
Hearing Zhang Chi explaining, the shop owner smiled and leaned back and forth, apologized to Zhang Chi repeatedly, and then changed Zhang Chi to a gray hat.
"I'm sorry, I don't know, there's no problem with gray, right?" said the owner.
Zhang Chi took it with a smile and tried it on his head. He thought the hat was pretty good, so he nodded.
There are generally two types of hats when cowboys work, one is the common cowboy hat in movies, and the other is the baseball hat that Zhang Chi now wears. The brim is longer than that of ordinary baseball hats, and can block more part of the sunlight when working.
He took the things out of the door and threw them into the back pit. Zhang Chi drove to his uncle's house for a meal. After eating, he drove back to his ranch.
After arriving in Amber Town, Zhang Chi did not return to the ranch directly, but moved to the small bar in the town.
There is a small parking lot next to the small bar, with no signs or signs, but you can tell at a glance that this place is a parking lot.
After stopping the car, Zhang Chi came to the door and gently pushed open the small door. The style of this bar is a bit old-fashioned. The small door is like two small short doors, one empty on the top and one empty on the bottom. It is common in western films. Nowadays, bars in the city are not like this.
I opened the door and walked in and found that the bar was not very small, about seventy or eighty square meters, an L-shaped long bar counter, several round tables, and a jukebox in a corner of the house.
The surrounding walls are full of wood colors, and there are some classic Western movie pictorials on the walls.
Behind the bar, there is now a white woman in her forties and fifties who is wiping a wine glass. When she saw Zhang Chi come in, she asked, "What do you want to drink?"
The voice is dull and there is no enthusiasm.
However, this kind of bar is usually like this, and it looks like you love not to come. It is already quite enthusiastic to greet him like today.
"A bottle of beer"
Zhang Chi said.
After saying that, Zhang Chi sat directly next to the bar, took the beer, and then slowly started drinking.
"I haven't seen you before."
The woman asked at Zhang Chi.
"I just moved here and bought a small ranch here," Zhang Chi introduced himself.
As soon as Zhang Chi said this, the woman knew who Zhang Chi was and which ranch he bought.
The reason is actually very simple. There is only one ranch for sale nearby in the past six months. Although it is divided into several pieces, the people who buy other ranchs will not have the same temperament as Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi knew that he had no money at first glance. It was not that the rich people here were quite arrogant, but even if the Lion Ranch was divided and sold, except for the one that Zhang Chi bought, the other prices were between two and three million US dollars.
Most of the people who spend so much money to the ranch do not make a living by operating the ranch, but are mostly for vacation or other purposes.
These people can make money by using any method, but they don’t live on the ranch.
Now Zhang Chi can't smell the rich man.
I have to say that people who work in bars have a sharp view.
"Kimberley"
The woman stretched out her hand at Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi shook with the woman: "Zhang Chi!"
"What are your ranchs going to be used to raise?" Kimberly saw that he had settled in the town, so he was his own customer from then on, so he started to talk about it.
"I'm going to raise cattle," Zhang Chidao.
"It's hard to raise cattle now," Kimberly said.
Kimberly means that raising cattle has not been too profitable in recent years.
Zhang Chi also knew that as the ranch became more and more corporate and technologically large, the ranch became less and less advantageous in market competition.
People in large ranches can raise tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of cows at one time. The cost of spreading evenly is naturally lower than that in small ranches. This is a normal phenomenon.
Small ranches also have solutions, that is, to go to quality and differentiate. In short, big has great benefits, and small has small ways to live.
"Try it," said Zhang Chi.
Hearing Zhang Chi say this, Kimberly stopped saying anything more.
Zhang Chi said: "Is there any horse for sale in the nearby family? I want to buy a horse for ranch, Quat horse, and it doesn't require a proof of bloodline. The only requirement is not to be too six or seven years old, and to train well."
After living in Folson for more than ten years, Zhang Chi still has a certain understanding of horses. Although he is not very good at riding, he knows what kind of horse he is suitable for at this level.
If a Chu brother chooses a horse, he must be picking the kind of supernatural horse. Most of the people will choose a white horse because it is handsome.
However, people with certain riding experience will choose horses that suit their figure. Because it is too tall, you may feel handsome at the beginning, but you will find it very hard to climb the horse's back a few times, especially for people of Zhang Chi's height.
Moreover, Zhang Chi would not think that he has the ability to train a horse, and he can train a horse very well. If a horse is now Zhang Chi, it is probably no different from seeking death.
This is not a joke, and being killed by a horse is not an isolated case. Such things often occur. Zhang Chi doesn't want to ignore his life just because he wants to be handsome.
"Then I'll ask for you."
In addition to drinking, the tavern in the town also undertakes the task of delivering messages, such as if someone wants to buy something or wants to buy something. The number is too small or there are definitely people nearby. Usually, they just leave a letter here.
The matter was done, so Zhang Chi decided to leave after drinking.
To be honest, Zhang Chi doesn’t like bars very much. One is that he doesn’t drink often, and the other is that this place is usually noisy.
Zhang Chi prefers a quieter place.
Just as I was about to put down the wine bottle and leave, the bar door was pushed open again.
When Zhang Chi heard the sound, he subconsciously looked at the door.
The one who came in was a thin old cowboy in his fifties and sixties, wearing a gray cowboy hat. The hat was a little old and the front of the hat was a little worn out.
The old cowboy has a very thin face. The most outstanding one on her face is her thick mustache, her eyes are very sharp and her expression is very serious. There is no smile on her face.
He wore a thick gray plaid shirt, and a dark brown vest on the outside, and his lower body was jeans. He almost lost his color after washing it. He was light brown half-high-top riding boots on his feet.
