Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 4 The Ranch Sets Sail

Soon, the sky darkened, and Lisko was very satisfied with the progress of 45% of the copying that he had completed. After all, this was his old profession. The foundation is still there, this is the dignity of a writer.

The rooster has already returned in a hurry, and returned the remaining checks, "I bought 120 roosters, all of them are in good health, and they will be sent back later."

Lisko gave him a bottle of beer, and poured himself a glass of water. He still didn't understand Americans' hobbies, and regarded beer as a daily drinking water, no wonder everyone had a big belly.

"I believe in your vision. Have you bought everything you need for the ranch?"

"The seeds are all bought, the baler is also bought, the pickup truck is ready, I bought it at Ruger's in the town, I let the cowboys deal with the cowshed and the gate, it seems to be finished tomorrow, I will go tomorrow Big Schenk went to buy a brewing machine, we can sow seeds the day after tomorrow, the wheat seeds I bought this time are rye, I heard that the brewed wine is better, and the rye bread is also more expensive."

Lisko patted the rooster on the shoulder, feeling more and more that it was a wise decision to pull him out of Beau's pasture.

"Thank you for your hard work. Go to Bo's to buy a cow, and then bring some wine over here. Have a patty tonight."

The rooster drove back after drinking the beer. Lisko stood in the garden on the third floor, watching the cars driving this way. This meant that everyone in the town had come to the party.

The cowboys on the ranch were the first to arrive. They all brought their wives and children. There are currently four cowboys on the ranch besides the rooster. Only David and the rooster live in the ranch apartment, and the others go back to town by themselves every day. live at home.

The four cowboys David, Humber, Weiss, and Locke were all recommended by Maggie. These four guys grew up in the town, knew everything, and were not lazy in their work.

"boss,"

Cowboys say hello,

"Let's all help out, have a barbecue today,"

The cowboys responded and started to get busy, stringing skewers, slaughtering cows, serving wine, and building a music stand. These things are familiar to them Americans who gather every three or two days.

Lisko stood at the door to say hello. People familiar with the town heard that there was a patty here, and they seemed to have come. Lisko had to say hello one by one. He saw Bo and Maggie helping with the barbecue, and the veterinarian Dale who helped carry the wine had already arrived. The drinks started, and there was Golly kissing in the corner with his casually dressed lawyer fiancé, and the girls chattering around him.

"Lisko, I heard that you are rich, right?"

"Lisko, are you disappointed that you didn't win the Nobel Prize?"

"Lisco, is New York fun?"

Lisko was a little distressed. Being single, he seemed to be the prey of all the young women in the town, but he was still a Chinese man in his bones, and he was really not interested in these American women with large pores and freckles on his face.

The rooster saw his embarrassment and pulled him out of the crowd. He finally breathed a sigh of relief and took a sip of his drink, "Thank you brother,"

Rooster laughed and teased him, "You are a great writer and handsome, why are you still single?"

"I have some goals. I want to enjoy life after I conquer the Nobel."

The rooster clinked glasses, "Yes,"

Seeing the rooster that was prevaricated by him, Lisko had a headache. He sent private detectives to investigate after he traveled over. This world has no traces of his previous life at all. His parents, relatives, neighbors, and friends seem to be nonexistent. He was also lost for a long time before he adjusted. At present, he just wants to live a good life, enjoy life, and find a Chinese woman to marry and have children.

Soon the party reached its climax, the black cowboy Weiss was rubbing the music on the stage, people began to twist their bodies, and Lisko was also squeezed into the crowd.

He was surrounded by a group of women, and Lisko was also moved by the atmosphere, shaking with the music. At this moment, he also forgot his troubles, and everyone was dancing and laughing.

Scott soon became a little drunk. He told the cowboys to clean up the wreckage, and then he staggered upstairs. He didn't even change his clothes, and fell asleep on the bed.

The next day, Lisko was woken up by the sunlight. He rubbed his eyes and felt a splitting headache.

Struggling to go to the bathroom to wash up, he felt refreshed after cleaning up, threw the alcohol-tainted bedding into the washing machine, changed into casual clothes and went downstairs.

Jasmine was still busy in the kitchen as usual, and greeted Lisko when she came down,

"Boss, I've warmed up milk for you, breakfast will be ready soon."

Lisko sat down at the dining table and drank the milk first. The warm milk passed through his throat and flowed to his stomach.

"Well~"

He relaxed his frown, got up and found Mag in the kennel, refilled the dog food with warm water, stroked his soft head, and returned to the dining table to open the newspaper.

The newspaper industry in the United States is very developed, and Americans are accustomed to ordering newspapers. It has become a habit to browse newspapers every morning when they have breakfast. In the next few years, the rapid development of the Internet will still not cover up the market for newspapers, and of course it will decline. Lisko also followed suit and ordered several current affairs information.

"Damn it, another tax hike."

When Lisko saw the report in the middle of the newspaper, he couldn’t get angry. In the United States, all kinds of taxes really annoy people. You have to pay it back for the rest of your life.

Of course, the increase in taxes has little effect on Lisko. He just habitually scolds the president and politicians with American thinking. Lisko’s industry has dedicated financial personnel to avoid taxes, and the tax rate is kept to a minimum by purchasing luxury accessories, donating, investing, and opening overseas branches. This is also a legal means of tax avoidance for the rich in the United States.

After breakfast, Lisko also started to work, beating his hands quickly, and the progress was getting faster and faster.

The pleasant bell rang, and the Nokia n73 Lisko put on the table lit up. This is the most popular model this year. Lisko suddenly remembered that he seemed to have shares in Nokia, not much, only a few tenths of a percent, Lisko Ke wrote it down and had to dispose of it before 2007.

"Hello,"

"Lisko, I have sent your new book to Langdon for review. How long will it take to finish?"

Lisko glanced at the screen, "Half a month."

"Okay, the publishing house has arranged the preparatory work here. The editors have spoken highly of this book. They are already planning to contact the academicians of literature to study it and prepare for the Nobel application next year."

Lisko was not surprised by this result. The book "The Catcher in the Rye" was selected as a must-read book for American colleges and middle schools. It led the trend of literary creation at that time and affected the lives of many people.

After hanging up the phone, Lisko concentrated on coding with great interest. He was very excited when he thought that he would win the highest literary award. He didn't feel ashamed about the matter of copying the text. In my own memory, it is better to use it to add luster to the world, not to mention that I copied it from a foreign country.

Time passed quickly, and Lisko continued to work non-stop after lunch, and finally finished the work in the evening. When he finished typing the last letter, he stretched himself and could rest for a while.

He kept the document properly and did not intend to hand it over to the agent immediately, otherwise he would not be able to explain the masterpiece he wrote in a few days.

He made up his mind to have a good rest in the pasture. Today the rooster has bought back the horses used for grazing in the pasture. Lisko decided to go and have a look tomorrow. Speaking of which, he had lived in the city in his previous life and had never ridden. Horses, I really want to experience the feeling of galloping on horses in martial arts novels.

The time is spent in Scooby licking the dog.

The next day, Lisko got up early and went to the stable with excitement.

The stables were built together with the stables, and there are five stalls inside. This time, I also bought five horses. These horses are Quarter Horses used in ordinary pastures, and they are not of rare bloodlines.

When Lisko arrived at the stable, the horse delivery men had already arrived, and they were calling for the cowboys to unload, while the rooster was pouring water from the flagon, while directing the cowboys.

Lisko doesn't care about this kind of behavior of drinking at work, because in his impression, all the cowboys he knows work like this. He remembers that his father is very precious to his flagon. Broken, my father was angry for a long time, until he bought a new one for his father as a Christmas gift with the manuscript fee, and his father was relieved.
