Chapter 72

Ranch 3

Cold morning.

Fang Xin was awakened by the alarm. She closed her eyes and reached out to turn off the alarm.

I stretched out in the quilt, wanting to sleep a little longer.

She climbed out of the bed with difficulty and yawned loudly.

She wanted to hold on for a few more days, and then let them go out to find supplies on their own. She wanted to lie down.

Fang Xin put on his clothes.

When I go out to the fields, the first thing I do every morning is to add coal to the boiler.

The key to the house has been given to Grandma Li. Every day, Grandma Li comes to help add coal to the boiler and helps with cleaning.

Fang Xin brushed his teeth, washed up, and tidied himself.

One person and one dog eating.

One person and one dog wearing clothes.

One person and one dog go out.

The wind is quite strong today, and the clothes are rustling.

Driving the snowmobile, I picked up Grandpa Li and Xiao Kai again. They looked normal, as if they were not too affected by what happened yesterday.

The snowmobile drove against the strong wind towards the place where the supplies were located.

The cold wind howled and rolled up the thick layer of snow, lifting the snow on the ground high up and letting it drift in the air, making Grandpa Li and Xiao Kai unsteady.

Fang Xin shouted in the cold wind, "Let's load the six cows from yesterday onto the truck first. I'll take them back first."

Grandpa Li also responded loudly, "Okay."

"Is it okay for you two to stay here?" Fang Xin asked.

"It's okay, don't worry."

It took three men a lot of effort to drag and pull the six cows onto the truck.

It's really heavy.

Frozen hard objects seem particularly heavy.

Especially when loading the truck to a high place, Grandpa Li and Xiao Kai stood at the bottom and used their bodies to lift it up, while Fang Xin stood on top and dragged the truck.

After finally loading the car, Grandpa Li and Xiao Kai sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.

A thick white mist rose from the two people's thick masks.

Fang Xin looked at the two people sitting on the snow and resting. "You two still need to work on your physiques."

Grandpa Li blushed and reached out to wipe the frost off his face. "I'm old now. I can't refuse to accept my old age."

Fang Xin waved his hand and got into the car, "You two take a rest, I'm leaving."

So Fang Xin returned again with his dog and six cows.

The dog must stay with her, she won't feel at ease no matter who the dog follows.

After leaving the ranch area and making sure that there was no one around, Fang Xin got out of the car and put the sled into the space.

Return with an empty car.

When we were almost at the villa area, we took out the big sled and hung it behind the car.

Oops, that's a bit of a hassle.

When we arrived at the second old man's house, Grandma Li ran out in a hurry with an apron hanging on her head.

The dog jumped out of the car and ran around wagging its tail.

"Xinxin, this is another trip back."

"Well, we couldn't get it back yesterday."

Grandma Li said this and followed Fang Xin to untie the rope at the back. When the rope was untied, the rain sheet was lifted.

"Wow, it's a cow." Grandma Li exclaimed.

"Yes, this time it's a cow."

Fang Xin and Grandma Li worked hard to drag the frozen ox off the sled. She didn't see Old Man Wang, nor did she care, and continued with her work.

As if she knew what Fang Xin was thinking, Grandma Li said, "I think Old Man Wang is at home cleaning up the mutton. I wonder if he'll come back again during the day."

"Ah, it's okay, don't call him, there's not much work anyway." The key is that even if Old Man Wang came, it seemed like he couldn't do anything.

"Just leave it like this and divide it up when we get back tonight."

"Oh, okay."

A cow is very heavy, and each cow weighs more than 600 kilograms. Grandma Li couldn't pull it at all, so Fang Xin simply pushed the cows to the ground. Fortunately, there were only a few of them, otherwise she wouldn't be able to move even if there were dozens.

"I'm leaving, grandma."

"Hey, be careful on the road!"

Fang Xin waved her hand, asked Gou Zi to get in the car, and she also sat in the driver's seat.

Start the car and set off again.

It was already past 11 o'clock in the morning when we arrived at the ranch.

Fang Xin stopped the car near Grandpa Li's place. Xiao Kai saw Fang Xin coming back and waved happily, "It's my sister who's back."

Fang Xin saw three cows on the snow and thought, "It's a good harvest."

Grandpa Li stood up straight, straightened his back, and said with a smile, "Yes, I didn't expect there would be more."

The three of them worked until about 3 p.m., and finally finished digging out the big snow pile. However, the harvest in the afternoon was not good, as they only dug out one yellow cattle.

Today we harvested 4 cows.

But that's OK. It's impossible to be lucky all the time. As long as there are gains and profits, it's good.

It took the next two days to dig two more snow piles.

Harvested 8 hairy donkeys and 9 fat pigs.

In the end, there were only two large snow piles left to be dug, and if we persisted for two more days, we would be almost done.

But as expected, an accident happened.

Today, the three of them were still digging in the snow, looking for supplies inside.

A few black dots appeared in the distance from the snow and were slowly approaching.

Fang Xin stopped the tool in his hand and looked into the distance.

As the shadows got closer, we discovered that they were six figures.

Four of them were strong young men, and the other two were middle-aged men in their forties.

Behind them, each person was dragging a large sled and holding a large iron bar in his hand. It was obvious that they were not easy to mess with and their aura was very fierce.

Grandpa Li and Xiao Kai also noticed the figures in the distance, and they stopped what they were doing and looked at the few people warily.

Xiao Kai quietly reached into his pocket, ready to draw his gun at any time.

Fang Xin stood steadily, observing the few people calmly.

When they got closer, they saw a dozen large white geese in the snow. Their eyes almost popped out and their greed was clearly visible.

One of the men in a military coat said, "Hey, it's a good harvest. You guys keep doing what you want to do."

Grandpa Li and Xiao Kai were stunned and did not react for a moment, but they knew in their hearts that the other party had ill intentions.

A short man at the back sneered, "They didn't understand."

So he bent down and laughed out loud, "Why is this so funny?"

The others also laughed, "Hahaha, you must be scared."

The short man stopped laughing, picked up a large iron rod, and pounded it into the snow, saying sternly, "What are you still standing there for? Dig faster and bring whatever you find to me."

This is to treat the three people as free labor.

The six people didn't take the three people seriously at all, as if the life and death of the three people were in their hands.

At this moment, the man in the military coat suddenly felt a strong wind coming. He turned his head and saw his companion rushing towards him, accompanied by his companion's screams.

bang.

The man in the military coat had no time to dodge and was hit hard by his companions.

The snow splashed up under his body.

Fang Xin pulled his legs back swiftly.

She is usually ruthless and doesn't talk much, and she will never talk nonsense if she wants to take action.

"dad."

"Uncle."

Fang Xin raised his eyebrows, it turned out they were still a family.

The others rushed forward to check on the man in the military coat.

The man in the military coat was furious and pushed away the man who was pressing on him.

He stretched his neck and yelled, "Fuck her, kill her for me."
