Chapter 137: Chapter 135: Fighting Marmots—Ask Them to "Aah"!

The ranch is getting livelier.

The renovation company is currently renovating Jiang Feng’s house, a full package deal, so Jiang Feng moved with the little ones to the guest house.

Over in the vegetable garden, they’re building a red brick wall.

This large vegetable garden used to be just a piece of wasteland.

Jiang Feng used a tractor to cultivate the land, then planted vegetables, and now he’s starting to build the wall.

Everything is gradually improving.

In the morning, Jiang Feng appeared in the live streaming footage driving his million-dollar tractor.

The huge green tractor is quite imposing, with a seeding machine trailing behind it.

He drove the tractor directly towards the distance.

[Is the ranch owner driving his million-dollar luxury car to haul manure again?]

[You’ll be talking about that one time he hauled manure for a lifetime!]

[This big guy is just like the Kapuda Giant; can it transform?]

[This is the real big toy for men!]

Inside the driver’s cabin, Jiang Feng turned on the microphone.

Suddenly, the tractor’s roar echoed in the live stream.

Jiang Feng said to the viewers:

"Today, I’m sowing grass. With the good weather now, planting early means the grass will grow sooner."

"The future development of the ranch all depends on how the grass turns out."

"The machine at the back is a pneumatic seeder. Now, the country has favorable policies for agriculture. The seeder costs 180,000, but with a 70,000 subsidy, I got it for 110,000."

"Such a large pasture will take about two days to seed."

"I’ll drive for half a day first. I haven’t driven the tractor for a long time, and it feels quite good."

The huge tractor drove into the grassland, with eight downward seeders connected through plastic pipes to one machine.

The machine blows seeds down through the plastic pipes and can control the spacing and quantity of the seeds.

Large-scale mechanized work always attracts men’s attention.

Especially through the drone’s perspective, viewers experience the feeling of mechanized work immersively.

The seeder at the back first plows several shallow furrows and then scatters the grass seeds. Without much care, the seeds will automatically take root downward.

For agriculture, weeds are always a headache.

But for the grassland, they are true treasures.

The tractor pushed forward steadily.

A few small animals came out to play on the wasteland.

Ranch workers Hadan and Bugude were also there, responsible for seeding the pasture.

Xiaojin Hua was with Lucky and Wealthy, after all, they are his biological sons, and Lucky and Wealthy are very concerned about Xiaojin Hua’s situation.

Little White Wolf was playing with a little lamb, both lively and jumping around happily.

Young mammals are both adorable and cute.

The Little Mongolian Mastiff was being teased by Hadan and Bugude.

Sometimes, the two would marvel at how the ranch owner chose such a good-looking Little Mongolian Mastiff; its quality is undoubtedly top-notch, and it will grow up to be mighty and loyal.

At this moment, Hadan looked up and saw a silly and cute Little Donkey.

They all like Jiang Feng’s little pets and envy him.

A person who can run a ranch must indeed have some skills.

In the vast grassland, everything appeared vibrant.

Jiang Feng drove the tractor gradually farther away.

The quantity of seeds continued to decrease, all scattered across the grassland.

Just waiting for a spring rain, and this place could turn green again.

After driving for a while, Jiang Feng noticed something moving up ahead.

"There’s a small animal over there, probably rabbits."

Without binoculars, Jiang Feng relied on his naked eyes to observe.

He drove the tractor closer, only to find that the moving animals were actually two marmots gripping each other’s neck.

"It’s marmots, that’s rare!"

"Judging by the looks, these two marmots are having a spat."

Jiang Feng stopped the tractor, watching with interest.

The drone camera also focused on the marmots.

Viewers saw the marmots, and the bullet comments exploded instantly.

[Ranch owner, make them ’squeal’ one more time!]

[Hurry, make them squeal once more; I feel uncomfortable if they don’t!]

[So this is what marmots are!]

[Are they fighting? I thought they were dancing!]

[Who dances while gripping each other’s necks?!]

The sudden appearance of marmots greatly piqued everyone’s interest.

Marmots are common animals in deserts, highlands, and grasslands, often living by lakes and not hibernating in winter.

They’re best known for a meme—the marmot on a hill letting out a shrill ’squeal’ to the distance.

Of course, that ’squeal’ was added in post-production; marmots have a sharp voice, similar to a mouse’s squeak.

Nowadays, some people even keep marmots as pets, which is quite eye-catching.

The two marmots clung to each other’s necks, heads tilted back, neither willing to relent.

They occasionally moved their heads, changing positions to continue the gripping. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Jiang Feng got off the tractor and walked directly to the marmots.

The marmots weren’t afraid of him, continuing their grip.

"Hey, stop fighting."

"You’re both of the same kind, get along well."

Jiang Feng squatted down, pried the marmots’ hands apart, and mediated.

The two critters finally noticed Jiang Feng.

Released from Jiang Feng’s grip, they turned to look at him, their faces filled with disbelief, standing frozen in place.

A few seconds later, a groundhog realized what was happening, turned around and scurried away.

The other one was still staring blankly at Jiang Feng.

The online viewers found this scene amusing and couldn’t help but chuckle.

[Farm owner, you’re meddling. They’re fighting and you just have to break it up!]

[You guys stop fighting, stop fighting already!]

[Farm owner: Without me, this prairie would be doomed sooner or later!]

[Groundhog: Is this two-legged beast bored or what, why meddle in our business!]

[A bit like Liu Bei trying to mediate between Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, unsure, need to watch again.]

Comments poured in fast.

Jiang Feng noticed the groundhog still dazed, so he gently patted its head.

The groundhog turned its head, still with a look of shock.

Jiang Feng watched it for a while, and the little creature finally snapped out of it and slowly ran away.

"There are lots of prairie rabbits, but groundhogs are relatively rare."

"These guys live together as families near water sources."

"Encountering two at once is quite interesting."

Jiang Feng got back into the tractor and continued planting the fields.

Everywhere within his sights was his land.

He could plant however he liked.

Soon the seeds in the machine were all planted, and Jiang Feng drove the tractor back.

The tractor stopped beside the pasture.

Jiang Feng got off and said to Hadan and Bugude, "Alright, you two take over."

"You can operate it now, right?"

Upon hearing this, Hadan and Bugude promptly responded:

"Don’t worry, farm owner, we drive tractors at home for work!"

"No problem at all."

The tractor had enough space for two people, so they both climbed into the cabin and drove off with the tractor.

This kind of large tractor is only found in big ranches, not in ordinary herders’ homes.

It’s much more stable than regular tractors.

On the grass beside them, a few dogs were playfully romping around.

Among them, a little lamb stood out quite noticeably.

Jiang Feng, seeing this lamb, said, "Look at this little lamb, it’s successfully integrated into the sheepdog circle."

"Little White Wolf seems to enjoy playing with it."

Seeing the little lamb surrounded by sheepdogs and the Little White Wolf, the viewers had new epiphanies.

[See? This shows that skill is not important, the circle is. Hang with wolves and you are a wolf!]

[But a wolf has to like you first, or your fate is to be driven away!]

[I swear I will marry a wolf in the future!]

[If you have skills, better to find a person!]

[Wolf: I am taking good care of you now, make sure you feed me later!]

Jiang Feng walked towards the inside of the pasture.

The little creatures followed swiftly.

These animals are all free-range, going wherever they want.

The ranch is relatively enclosed, with a circle of barbed wire fenced around the outside, so they won’t wander far.

Jiang Feng arrived at the sheep pen.

The biggest task in spring is these lambs.

This morning, over sixty lambs were born; taking care of them has become an indispensable daily task.

The pens inside are almost running out of space.

Upon entering the sheep pen, there’s an endearing scene full of many lambs in sight.

Yang Maolin and two others were busy feeding the lambs with milk every day.

They had lost count of how many buckets of milk they’d used.

The milk bottles were constantly in use.

Seeing Jiang Feng approach, Yang Maolin said:

"Farm owner, Gelya told me the cow’s milk isn’t enough."

"Even milking extra can’t keep up."

"We need to buy more milk."

Hearing this, Jiang Feng replied, "Alright, I’ll get in touch."

Then, Jiang Feng called to the milk collection station.

The person on the other end sounded quite puzzled.

"You said you want to buy milk from us? Are you planning to start a dairy factory?"

The staff at the milk station exclaimed in surprise.

Previously, they always bought milk and camel milk from Jiang Feng, bringing considerable income to the ranch.

Now Jiang Feng wants to buy milk, which struck the milk station as quite peculiar.

Hearing this, Jiang Feng responded:

"The spring lambs are too many, the milk isn’t enough."

"Feeding them cow’s milk keeps them fit; this season, they’re prone to getting sick, and cow’s milk is necessary."

The milk station staff heard him and replied with a smile:

"Alright, no problem."

"There’s plenty of milk this season, it’s great you can buy it."

Jiang Feng added:

"I want it fresh, it’s all for feeding the lambs. Don’t bring me anything not fresh, it needs to be inspected here."

"No worries, we’ll deliver it right after we collect. We’re all good friends here, we do things in good faith!"
