Little Life on An American Ranch - Chapter 677

  Chapter 677 Eat

   “Just this one!” Xu Wen pointed to a nearby steak shop and said to Jian Heng.

   Jian Heng paused for a moment and asked, “Are you sure about this family?”

   Seeing Xu Wen look at Gu Yuan next to him, and then nodding to himself, Jian Heng drove the car into the parking lot of the steak shop.

Now it’s time for dinner, and there are quite a few people who come out to eat. Most of the people who come to this steakhouse are people who live nearby, such as reporters, people who work nearby, and ordinary tourists. I would not come here to eat, because this steakhouse is not close to the center of the town, but a distance away from the center of the town. It happens to be next to some newly built communities this year, and there are more than a hundred families around, plus a dozen or so A long-term rental house, mainly for people like them.

   Don’t underestimate the place where more than a hundred families gather, this can be a small town by itself here in Montana. The members living in this community are mainly small bosses who start businesses in the town, and some are cowboys who are optimistic about the development of the town. For example, two or three new workers from Jianheng Ranch bought a house here to rest. Time to come back here for a day or two or something.

  The restaurants in this small town are full of restaurants. Although there are quite a few here, they don’t have the scene of queuing up for meals like in the town, and there is no need to wait for a seat.

Most of the diners knew Jian Heng, even if they didn’t know each other, as long as they had no hatred, they would smile at Jian Heng as a greeting, so Jian Heng went from the door to the empty table for four, and almost everyone in the room I’m polite again.

   “You enjoy eating here.”

  As soon as he sat down, Xu Wen said to Jian Heng.

Jian Heng smiled and replied: “It’s not a question of whether you can eat or not. After living here for a long time, you will understand that Montana people are like this as long as they are not enemies. Sometimes two people who don’t know each other on the road When I miss the car, I can have a chat or two!”

   “It’s more humane than domestic ones,” Gu Yuan couldn’t help but praise.

  Jian Heng said with a smile: “Actually, this is the case in the countryside. People are warmer. If you live in New York, you will feel that there is no human touch. Everyone generally goes to their own way. This is the countryside, so life is more leisurely and human.”

  Xu Wen said: “Living in the countryside makes people closer to nature, and people are more simple. It turns out that this is the case in every country.”

  Gu Yuan said: “It’s not necessarily true that you haven’t seen how the demolition and relocation in my hometown have become, the son and the father have turned against each other, and the brothers and sisters have become enemies? …”.

   Just as we were talking about this, a waiter in his thirties came to the table, put the menu in his hand on the table with a snap, and asked at the same time, “What do you want to eat?”

  In a small restaurant in the countryside, it’s a bit pretentious to talk about service. The two waiters don’t seem to be in a good mood, so it’s a bit forced to say this.

  Xu Wen also drove across the United States, so he naturally knows that the service in the United States is just like this, not the kind of big restaurants that are expensive, and the service attitude and standard are not much different from the domestic roadside stalls.

  He reached out and picked up the menu and gestured at Jian Heng: “You order!”

   “I know, a steak, fully cooked.” Jian Heng ordered a steak without looking at the menu, and asked the waitress with a smile, “Demi, what’s the matter?”

“It’s nothing, that **** Frank dared to cheat. Look at me.” Speaking of which, the waitress twisted her body and made a sideways pose, and said to Jian Heng in an extremely disbelieving tone: “I , can you believe that when you are with me, you will hook up with another woman… “.

  Not to mention anything else, this Demi’s self-confidence is really nothing. Although Jian Heng admits that this girl is indeed good looking, it is unreasonable to say that with her a man will definitely not cheat.

   Seeing Jian Heng shrug his shoulders, Demi said: “I was so angry that I threw all that guy’s things out!”

   “A serving of sirloin, medium rare! Add a tomahawk, and another…”

   “That’s enough, three servings of steak are enough, no need to add more” Seeing that Xu Wen wants to order more, Demi said quickly.

  Jian Heng also said after hearing this: “That’s enough, you’ll know when things come up.”

  Xu Wen opened his mouth and said: “Then don’t want the salad, let’s have a pot of coffee.”

   “Okay, the coffee here is good.” Demi wrote it down, then turned her head and left.

  Gu Yuan looked at Demi’s back and said, “The people here are really interesting!”

Jian Heng smiled and said: “It’s not like living a simple life like wearing a mask in the city. If people here don’t like you, they just don’t like you. Some people can end up feuding for decades because of a little thing. Of course, it’s not that kind of thing.” It’s very interesting if you understand the kind of vengeance that blows beards and stares as soon as you meet.”

  Xu Wen said: “We want to buy a small ranch here in the United States, what do you think?”

“Oh, are you going on vacation or something? Generally, the first choice for Chinese to buy a ranch is California, where the ranch family’s small ranch is an hour’s drive from the city, and about ten acres are also less than $100,000. If you live here, you can still rent it out. It’s not worthwhile for you to come here once or twice a year. There are no rentals here all year round. Besides, the prices of the small ranches here have also increased, not much cheaper than the California ranch. The main thing is the climate, the climate here is honestly the same as the Northeast China, but it has to be in the area of ​​HLJ…” Jian Heng said.

These days, as long as they come out and meet Chinese people, they are probably interested in this issue. Many of them did not expect that it would be so cheap to buy a ranch in the United States. If you can’t buy a decent house, you can actually get a hundred acres of land here in the country?

  The temptation of land to the Chinese is deep in the bones, the kind that goes deep into the genes, even if ordinary people don’t necessarily buy it, they have to ask and care about it.

   Of course, this ranch refers to a small ranch. The price of a large ranch is not affordable for ordinary people. In the United States, there are not one or two ranches worth billions or even tens of billions of dollars.

  Xu Wen said: “We prefer snow!”

As soon as he said this, Jian Heng could only say: “You have to look here, it’s best to ask a real estate agent, the price of a small ranch here is between 50,000 and 200,000, the main thing is the ranch The area and the buildings, the buildings are the big ones, and the location of the infrastructure. If you want to buy it, you have to understand these things. Although the laws and regulations in the United States are strict, the real estate brokers are similar in China and the United States. It’s really deceitful to fool people with their mouths. Many people went to Canada to buy ranches, and many of them were tricked into their hands… “.

   “A lot of knowledge?”

   Xu Wen and his wife felt that this matter was not as simple as they thought.

Jian Heng nodded: “It’s like this. There are scammers everywhere. As for the law, it is impossible to cover everything, so everyone should keep their eyes open. There is also a contract. It is best to find a professional lawyer to take a look at the contract. You guys don’t quite understand what’s going on. Don’t save the money. If there is a commercial trap in it, it will be troublesome. Generally, people who are new to China like to make things so complicated, but it’s necessary here. “.

At this time, Demi came up with three plates, stood at the table and put the plates in front of everyone one by one, and said while putting them down: “This is your battle axe, this is yours… and coffee, wait a minute Just a moment, I’ll get it for you right now, I’ll bring you another set of tableware for this young man later, just share it.”

   “Whoa, that’s a steak?!”

When Gu Yuan saw the huge steak in front of her, she was stunned immediately. Her tomahawk frightened her directly. The two-finger-wide beef rib fits into the palm of a normal adult and is full of meat. Pointing at half the width of the flesh, Gu Yuan was so shocked that he didn’t know how to evaluate it.

  The name is Tomahawk, and it looks like a real battle axe. Gu Yuan has also eaten tomahawk in China, and also in the United States, but she has never seen such a big fast steak. This guy is a bit too aggressive for a woman like her.

“The steaks here are quite generous, not to mention us Chinese, and the average American can’t eat a small belly, most of them have to be packed back!” Jian Heng said while moving the knife and fork, cutting I took a piece of steak and dipped it in the sauce next to the plate, put it in my mouth and chewed it.

  At this time, Demi brought the coffee and plates to Xiao Lele, put them in front of Xiao Lele, and left without saying a word.

   “This amount is really scary!”

   “If the portion is small, the guests won’t come to the door. You can move this side to the northeast. Once the big stew in the northeast is served in a pot, it will taste like this here.” Jian Heng laughed.
