Chapter 1587 Visiting the Weisman Family
When Xiao Peng arrived at Old Charles's farm, Old Charles was already waiting for him at the intersection: Xiao Peng finally saw how big Charles's farm was - there was a fork in the main road that led directly to Charles's farm. It took six or seven kilometers to reach Charles's home, and Charles told him that the land he had just seen was all within the scope of his farm.
This is really big!
Xiao Peng also saw Charles' two sons, both of whom were as strong as bulls. After asking, he found out that they were both students at the University of Texas and members of the "Longhorns", but they were substitutes on the basketball team!
Well, nowadays, black people are more popular in basketball because they can run faster and jump higher.
In fact, Charles never thought that Xiao Peng would come to his house. When he received Xiao Peng's call, he felt flattered - he didn't expect that the young man who played billiards with him that day was actually the famous "salvage king" Xiao Peng. In all honesty, he originally thought that Xiao Peng was just a rich second-generation who came to travel.
Charles was very enthusiastic about Xiao Peng's arrival and took Xiao Peng to visit his farm.
Charles's farm mainly grows grass and corn, and also raises a large number of longhorn cattle.
Texans love longhorns the most. Haven’t you seen that their college basketball and football teams are named after longhorns?
Longhorn cattle, as the name suggests, have exceptionally long horns. How long are they? The longest longhorn cattle ever recorded measured 3.23 meters between their horns! The longhorns on Charles' farm aren't quite as long, but they're generally around two meters long.
When Xiao Peng and Chaer rode to the cattle pen, they were shocked to see the long-horned cattle: "Fuck, so many Bull Demon Kings!"
Charles laughed and said, "Bull Demon King? That's not a very good nickname. They are very docile. You can ride them."
"Can this be ridden?" Xiao Peng was stunned after hearing this.
Charles nodded and said, "Of course. Many of our ranches here invite tourists to ride cows. It's one of our special tourist attractions here."
Xiao Peng looked at the long-horned ox. Hmm, if you look closely, it's a water buffalo with exceptionally long horns. But it's not raised in a paddy field here.
So he asked the question that the Daxia people were most concerned about: "Is this beef delicious?"
Charles laughed. "Of course it's delicious. The longhorn cattle on our farm are in high demand. I knew you were coming today, so I specially prepared a 'Texas three-piece set'. But now, Xiao, do you want to take a ride in the P40 to see the sky?"
Xiao Peng thought for a moment and asked, "Char, I'm more concerned about whether I can fly the P40 into space and see for myself."
"Have you ever driven a P40?" Charles asked.
Xiao Peng shook his head: "No, but I have flown small planes such as the Leisner 208."
After hearing this, Charles said directly, "That's no problem. Let's go to the hangar. You take the controls and I'll sit behind you. There's also a control system in the back. If there's any problem, I'll take over the driving."
Xiao Peng was stunned: "Are you so confident in letting me drive?"
Charles laughed and said, "I don't believe a billionaire would deliberately seek death. Your proactive request shows you're very confident, so why shouldn't I believe you? Besides, this old-fashioned plane isn't difficult to fly. Let's go for a spin in the sky, and then come back and experience our special 'Texas Hold'em'!"
The so-called "Texas Three-Piece Set" is beef brisket, beef ribs, and sausage. It is the most common barbecue food eaten by Texans. Almost everyone who comes to Texas has eaten these three - except vegetarians.
The average American consumes 25 kilograms of beef per year. In Texas? That's almost three months' worth. This place is the epitome of meat-loving.
The most important thing is: every household in Texas has its own barbecue secret recipe, and the "three-piece set" grilled by each household tastes exactly the same.
There is an episode in the popular TV series "Young Sheldon" that tells this story: Young Sheldon's father and his grandmother fought a battle of wits and courage just to get his grandmother's recipe for grilled beef brisket. The two of them made the whole family restless for a recipe for grilled beef brisket.
Xiao Peng nodded and said, "That's a good arrangement! Let's go!"
It seemed that Charles had been prepared. A P40 two-seater version was ready next to the small hangar. Xiao Peng sat in the front and Charles sat in the back, and the two of them took off directly into the sky.
After all, old Charles is the mayor of Sugar Land, and he sat in the back to prove that there was nothing wrong with my plane!
However, Xiao Peng didn't spend much time in the air before landing the plane. It was a disappointment, a disappointment. The P40's handling wasn't as good as I'd hoped. It couldn't even keep up with the Lesnar, let alone the Toucan. Hey, didn't Albrecht Heidegger say he wanted two Toucans? Why haven't they arrived in the Netherlands yet?
When Xiao Peng and the other man landed and returned to the house, Charles' wife had almost prepared lunch. Seeing Xiao Peng coming over, she smiled and waved, saying, "Xiao, you're back just in time. Try my cooking!"
Xiao Peng quickly said, "Thank you, Mrs. Weisman!"
"Just call me Jenny," said Charl Weisman's wife. "You don't have to be so polite."
Charl Weisman's wife is Jennifer Weisman, a typical Texas old lady: she always has a smile on her face.
Xiao Peng nodded: "Okay Jenny! Van der Laupe, where's Bruch?"
Vander Loupe replied, "He was dragged by Billy and George to play with the gun. It seems Billy and George are very confident in their shooting skills."
Charles said proudly, "Every Texan is very confident in their marksmanship. Jenny even won the Sugar Land City Revolver Draw Championship last year. Jenny, show Xiao Lu your skills."
Jenny didn't hesitate, reaching behind her waist. "Well, as expected of a Texan, always carrying a pistol." Xiao Peng then realized that the scarecrows not far away weren't placed in the fields, but were actually gun targets.
She tied the holster around her right thigh, then stood in a lunge with her right leg forward and her left leg back. She leaned forward and slightly back, grasping the gun handle with her right hand while facing the scarecrow next to her and said, "Char, it's done!"
Charles said directly: "Three Mississippi, Two Mississippi, One Mississippi!"
Americans count seconds by saying "Mississippi," which is how they pronounce the word "Mississippi." This way, it almost counts to one second. When Charles reached "One Mississippi," Jenny quickly drew her gun and fired. Her shooting speed was so fast that she practically blew off the scarecrow's head the moment she drew her gun.
If it were an ordinary person, his eyes wouldn’t be able to follow!
Jenny sighed and said, "I haven't practiced shooting for a long time, so my shooting skills are a bit slow. Xiao, are you interested in playing with it?"
After hearing this, Charles said helplessly: "Jenny, can we talk about it after dinner?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Jenny said, "Mr. Xiao, could you lead everyone in prayer before dinner?"
“…”
