Chapter 240: Helm Avalanche


Helm Ranch is also in Montana.

The reason why it takes an hour to drive from the ranch is because its location is so remote. basket color, Helm Ranch is close to the Rocky Mountains, and part of it is still halfway up the mountain.

It mainly engages in cattle and sheep breeding.

Now, the number of cattle and sheep together exceeds 10,000.

Another important source of income is the breeding of breeding cattle.

Their breeding cattle are very famous in several nearby towns.

It's just a bit strange.

As a long-established commercial cattle farm, although the pasture is not large, it also has professional pasture facilities.

Logically speaking, such heavy snow is not enough to collapse a professionally designed cattle shed.

Although there is now more than half a meter of snow on the road, it is even more brutal than the last snowstorm.

Ryan couldn't explain the reason on the phone.

He only heard the general idea from his old friend.

The thing happened so suddenly that he hadn't figured out the situation yet.

His original plan was to let Qin Yi know the news first, and then find someone to find out more about it.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yi thought for a moment and felt that this was an opportunity.

The cowshed at Helm Ranch collapsed, causing considerable losses.

Moreover, many cattle and sheep are suffering from the cold.

However, Helm Ranch has no way to relocate them.

There are only two ways in front of them: find a buyer to take over the cattle, or look after the cattle.

Sheep freeze to death But the current weather, coupled with the two snows before and after, has made the snow on the road more than one meter deep.

Not to mention that it will not be possible to find a buyer for a while, even if it is found, it will not be possible in a short time.

Cattle and sheep I can't last long in such a world of ice and snow.

The nearest ranch that can feed the nearly 10,000 cattle and sheep of Helm Ranch is Qin Yi's Sun River Ranch, so if Qin Yi is willing, he can definitely buy these cattle and sheep at a low price.

Of course, this doesn't mean taking advantage of others' misfortune.

After all, being willing to take over the cattle and sheep in such weather reduces their losses, and Qin Yi also risks the cattle and sheep getting sick or even freezing to death by transporting the cattle and sheep back to the pasture if the price is not lowered.

Who is stupid enough to take risks to help them tide over the difficulties?

Therefore, if Qin Yi is willing to accept it at a low price, it is the best result for Helm Ranch.

I just don’t know how much damage the bullpen collapse caused.

Think no more.

Diald Marcus' number, "Marcus, this is Yi.

Do you know the situation at Helm Ranch?"

"Yes, I know it's too regrettable.

Old Nord's loss is not small.

Now a rough estimate is that several hundred cattle are lost."

Marcus sighed with regret.

It was not just Old Nord who lost. , the ranching industry throughout Augusta will take some hits.

Of course, the one who suffered the most was Old Nord, the owner of Helm Ranch.

"How could this happen?

This kind of snow disaster is more serious for the cabin, but it won't collapse the cowshed."

Qin Yi was confused about this point.

"Oh, that's it, Yi.

Just now, old Nord called me immediately.

He said it was an avalanche.

It might be due to the strong wind, or it might be the vibration caused by the migration of animals on the mountain.

The specific cause is not clear yet."

Marcus gave a rough explanation and then extended an invitation: "Yi, I'm contacting someone to help at Helm Ranch.

Do you want to go?"

"Of course I'll call Ryan here and we'll drive directly there."

This must go, not only for the thoughts in my heart, but also for the responsibility of being the largest ranch in western Montana.

If you don't help at this time, your reputation in the nearby town will definitely decline.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Yi contacted Ryan again.

Let him bring the cowboys over, and then let the women and children stay at home.

He took a group of people, a set of tools, a snowplow and a large tractor, and drove in the direction of Helm.

Not to mention snowplows, large tractors are even more domineering.

The wheels are over two meters long, and the entire tractor is like a hill.

It doesn't care about the snow covering more than one meter on the road.

It runs rampantly and looks mighty and domineering.

Ye Fang is naturally indispensable for such things.

This guy likes to join in the fun, and the opportunity to run in the snow like this is rare.

If you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

Apart from anything else, it was the first time for him to see this tractor, which was like climbing stairs, let alone sit on it, so he was very excited.

He looked here and there along the way.

His curious look was similar to Angel's. a fight "Your life is really colorful.

Let's not talk about hunting and fishing, let alone motorboats and cars.

Just this big tractor makes people envious."

Ye Fang was sitting in the carriage, tinkering here and fiddling there, having a great time.

"You said it would be so cool if it were driven on the streets of Beijing."

Qin Yi immediately laughed mercilessly: "I'm going to arrest you in a minute.

This kind of bad behavior that damages roads, hinders traffic, and affects social harmony and stability must be stopped resolutely."

"Why don't you have any humor bacteria?"

"I took a shower yesterday and cleaned myself up."

Ye Fang couldn't defeat him and decided to ignore him.

He muttered to himself: "No wonder people say that humans are the soul of all things.

To be able to create such a big thing and run around in a Tutu is simply to ward off all evils."

Qin Yi felt that what he said was right.

Sitting on such a tractor that was almost two stories high, no one could avoid feeling a little arrogant.

In this way, the tractor cleared the road in front, and the snowplow followed behind to clear the snow, clearing the road for Marcus and the others, and they roared along the way.

As the ones who opened the way, Qin Yi and his party were not very fast.

Halfway through, Marcus had already followed them with his people.

In such road conditions, it took two hours to finally reach Helm Ranch.

The rancher, Old Nord, received the news and hurried out to greet them.

A night of wind and snow made the old rancher look even more tired.

Qiang smiled and said hello, welcoming everyone into the ranch.

On the way, snowplows and other equipment were handed over to the farmers, ranchers and cowboys who came to help.

Ryan, Walker, Marcus, and Old Nord all got on Qin Yi's big tractor, and they sat in the spacious cockpit.

Discuss countermeasures.

After listening to what Old Nord said, Qin Yi finally understood, because a valley on the mountainside of the Rocky Mountains belonged to Helm, where the grass was rich.

In order to facilitate grazing, Helm's cowshed was built in the valley, so this A sudden avalanche caused Old Nord to suffer a lot of losses.

The losses have now been roughly calculated.

Together with the cattle and sheep, Helm has lost more than a thousand cattle and sheep, and the remaining more than 10,000 cattle and sheep have been moved to the grove at the foot of the mountain.

Arriving at the ranch soon, the cowboys helped repair the cowshed.

Old Nord took Qin Yi and other ranchers to check on the condition of the cattle.

Along the way, no one said much because they really had nothing better to pay attention to right now.

Repairing the cattle shed is not a temporary matter.

The only way out is to sell these cattle and sheep.

However, in the nearby towns, the only one who can eat more than 10,000 cattle and sheep is Qin Yi.

Everyone understood this, so they didn't say anything.

At this time, it still depends on Qin Yi's intention.

Old Nord naturally knew it very well.

He also hoped in his heart that Qin Yi could take over, but this was not a small deal.

It could not be decided casually.

What he can do now is to receive Qin Yi and others wholeheartedly, and then quote a price that everyone is satisfied with when Qin Yi really plans to take over.

This is what he expected.

Qin Yi knows what everyone is thinking.

Everyone knows what is obvious.

But he was not in a hurry to express his position.

He always wanted to see the cow first before speaking.

All the way to the grove, the cattle and sheep gathered in groups and leaned together to keep warm.

The cowboys also got some hay for them.

Although it was basically ineffective in this ice and snow, at this time, it was somewhat of a try. , we can’t watch cows and sheep freeze to death.

Qin Yi observed that many cows and sheep had some fright in their eyes.

It seemed that they had been frightened by the avalanche.

Some of them had dull eyes.

It seemed that if they continued like this, they might get sick.

However, these cattle and sheep are all intact.

Now that the road has been opened, if they are fed with some fodder and hot water, it will be no problem to bring them back to the pasture.

So, Qin Yi looked at the old rancher who was looking forward to the side: "Old Nord, please give me a price.

If everyone is satisfied, I will take all these calves."
