Chapter 846: Bob's Farm

? Montana is located in the northwestern part of the United States, covering an area of ​​380,000 square kilometers, ranking fourth among all states in the United States, second only to the three states of Alaska, Texas and California.

However, Montana has only a population of just over one million, ranking seventh from the bottom of all states in the United States, so this state can be called a vast land with sparsely populated areas.

Montana's agriculture and animal husbandry occupies a pivotal position in the United States. This is the granary of the United States. The income from agriculture and animal husbandry accounts for 70% of the state's income. Therefore, in this state, the most are vast farms and ranches.

The city of Great Falls that Yang Jing is going to is located in the north-central part of Montana, only 110 kilometers northeast of Helena, the capital of Montana. The city got its name from the large waterfall on the Missouri River. It is a farming, animal husbandry, miner and financial center in northern Montana.

Except for neat farms and vast pastures around Great Falls, almost no other scenery can be seen. After hundreds of years of development, it has become a well-known farming and pastoral township in the United States and even in North America.

After Yang Jing’s American Airlines flight landed safely at the Grand Rapids International Airport west of Grand Rapids, Yang Jing pulled a trolley case and walked out of the gate alone, and then saw two cowboys holding one writing outside. A sign with "Albert Young" was standing outside the gate.

There are not many tourists coming to Great Falls from San Francisco. Yang Jing, a Chinese with yellow skin and black hair, was mixed up, and the two cowboys immediately saw them. One of them excitedly raised the sign, and the other pointed at it. Yang Jing waved.

Yang Jing greeted him with a smile, and when he got closer, he realized that the two cowboys were extraordinarily similar. They should be twin brothers.

"Hey, hello, I'm Albert Young, is it Mr. Zhao from San Francisco who asked you to pick me up?"

The cowboy holding the sign put down the sign, happily stretched out his hand and shook Yang Jing, and introduced himself: "Hello, Mr. Yang, this is Roy Jones, this is Michael Jones, we are brothers. Two, I'm the elder brother and he is the younger brother. It was Bob from San Francisco who called us to pick up the plane. "Bob is Zhao Meng's English name.

"Thanks for your hard work." Yang Jing said politely. It was obvious that the two twin brothers were very cheerful.

The younger brother Michael Jones said: "Mr. Yang, let's go, the car is parked outside. The weather seems to be snowing, we'd better go back quickly, otherwise it will snow for a while and the road will be difficult to walk."

Brother Roy Jones reached out to take the trolley case in Yang Jing's hand and took the lead to walk out.

The brothers’ car is a Ford Raptor F150, a pickup truck that is also known as a high-end car in China, and is used as a work car for farmers in the United States and Canada.

The sales of Ford pickup trucks in the United States are very large. Like this Raptor F150, the price in the United States is not high. The cheap one is only less than $20,000 and less than $30,000, and the most expensive is only $60,000.

The sky outside is really gloomy, but it feels like the temperature outside is not low, but the wind is a bit strong, how can it be snowing?

Seeing Yang Jing’s doubts, his elder brother Roy Jones said while driving: “The weather forecast says that a strong cold air is approaching Montana from Canada. It’s late October. When the strong cold air arrives, it will inevitably snow here. It looks like this almost every year."

Yang Jing nodded. He knew that Montana was the main channel for the cold air from North America to go south. Generally speaking, when the cold air from the Arctic went south, Montana must be one of the states that suffered first in the United States.

After the car got out of the airport parking lot, it turned south and got onto Intercontinental Highway 15. This highway runs from the north to the south of the United States, from Sweetgrass at the border of Montana and Canada in the north to San Diego, the southernmost point of California, with a total length of more than 2,300 kilometers.

The farm Zhao Meng bought in Montana is in Alm, a small town next to Interstate Highway 15. It is only 12 kilometers away from the airport. At the speed of the Ford Raptor, it will be there in more than ten minutes.

However, Zhao Meng's farm is not in the small town yet, and he needs to cross the Missouri River from Alm Town to the southern bank of the river, and then run another seven kilometers along the country road to finally reach the farm.

Along the way, on both sides of the road are neat farms and pastures scattered with cattle, sheep and other livestock. In the distance are the majestic Rocky Mountains. The North American spine is less than 100 kilometers away from Great Falls. You can clearly see the mountain range, and even the snow-capped mountains in the mountain range.

The scenery here has a strong rustic style, not as rough as Texas, and not as barren as Siberia. Although the land is sparsely populated, it is full of vitality.

"This is the largest town within ten kilometers, and it is also our hometown." Brother Michael Jones pointed to the small town of Alm and said, "This town has only a few hundred people, mostly farmers and herders nearby. , I operate my own farms and ranches here, or work for farmers and ranchers."

Yang Jing asked, "Do you two have your own ranch or farm?"

"My brother and I do not have our own farm or ranch for the time being. The subprime mortgage crisis ten years ago caused our father to lose a lot of money in his investment. The original ranch of our family was sold by my father. Now I And my brother makes money by helping others manage farms or ranches, and Bob is one of our employers."

Roy Jones, who was driving, turned the steering wheel, and the car steadily passed a bridge across the river. Then he said: "Bob is a good man. At that time Julio's wife was seriously ill, and Julio needed money. He was about to sell the farm in his hand. But those vampires wanted to lower the price. At this time, Bob took the shot. He bought Julio’s farm at the market price, so that Julio had enough money to help him. Madame heals."

Brother Michael Jones took the conversation and continued: "Bob said, he bought this farm to have a vacation place, but he is not good at farm management, so my brother and I volunteered to give Bao Bao. Bob helped, and Bob gave us a very good salary. Although Bob has not been to the farm in the past two years, our salary has never been less. In return, my brother and I have Oscar and El Wen takes care of Bob's farm very well."

The car ran steadily on a flat country road. To the north of the road is the winding Missouri River. On both sides of the river bank, Yang Jing can clearly see many regular farmland. In the hilly areas far away from the river, most of them are pastures.

Obviously, the farms close to the river should belong to the kind of better farms. After all, water resources are also an intangible asset. Whether it is in the United States or China, the farmland close to the river is the first-class farmland.

The car walked along the country road for about ten minutes, and two houses, one large and one small, and several tall granaries appeared in front of them.

"This is Bob's farm, on the northwest side of the house, surrounded by rivers on both sides, it is a very good farm." Roy Jones said.

The Missouri River has turned several consecutive hairpin bends here, and the two houses are located at the bottom of one of the hairpin bends, close to the river bank.

The car stopped steadily in front of the big house. Yang Jing got out of the car and found that the place was cleaned very clean, and it did not look like a temporary sweep. It can be seen that the Jones brothers really did it. It's well taken care of here.

The big house in front of me is a two-story wooden house. Its appearance is no different from the American houses that often appear in American movies, except that the area is a bit larger. Yang Jing estimates that this house covers an area of ​​four hundred square meters. .

"This house was originally inhabited by Julio and his children. After Bob bought the farm, almost no one lived here. But you can rest assured that Michael and I will clean it twice a week. , The quality of the house is no problem.” Roy Jones pointed to the smaller house next to him while introducing: “There is an agricultural machinery warehouse. All agricultural machinery is stored in that room, and there is another The repair room is used to repair the agricultural machinery and equipment. There is a smaller house behind the house, which is blocked. You can't see it now. It is a utility room. Some sundries and everything will be placed there."

Yang Jing nodded in satisfaction. The main house in front of me looks a bit old, but it is not in decline. At least from the outside, the house is quite good.

The whole house is white and looks very clean. The agricultural machinery warehouse next to it is red, which is very conspicuous against a green farmland ~www.readwn.com~.

Roy Jones took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and took the lead to walk forward, while Michael Jones took Yang Jing's trolley and followed Yang Jing to the door.

Opening the door with the key, Roy Jones said with a smile: "Welcome to Bob's farm as a guest. Mr. Yang, you will be the owner of this farm for a while."

Michael Jones put the trolley case aside and said with a smile: "Yesterday we received a call from Bob, knowing that you are coming to live for a while, so my brother and I bought some food and vegetables in Great Falls this morning. , Flour and rice are all in the storage room over there. Vegetables and meat are kept in the refrigerator. I hope you can use it."

Yang Jing smiled and said: "Roy, Michael, thank you very much, you are so thoughtful. I think if you are not busy at night, I would like to invite you two to have a dinner with me, I I think you will like Chinese cuisine..."
