Chapter 965: The school sweetheart’s first love who took a check and went abroad (3)
Don't mention it, she cuts it with such a click, the efficiency is really no less than that of the electric one.
The main reason is that she is very strong and does not need to rest in the middle until she shears the whole sheep.
The Hunters couldn't help but stare wide-eyed: This rebellious thorn-headed sheep was successfully sheared of its thick wool by the petite and exquisite lady in front of them?
Xu Yin, on the other hand, looked at her watch after shearing and seemed not to be very satisfied with her speed: "It took almost an hour to shear one sheep's hair, which is really inefficient. But it doesn't matter, I have had an experience, I believe it." Next time I will cut faster. As long as I practice more, my hand speed will increase. Practice makes perfect."
ˆHunter and his wife: “…”
The old shearer was almost autistic: He sheared a rebellious sheep that he couldn't usually catch in an hour. Is this called inefficiency? So who is he?
Mrs. Hunter did not hide her admiration for Xu Yin at all, and said with a hearty smile: "My child, you are really strong! This job is perfect for you! I make the decision, old George's assistant - the second person in our ranch Shearer, it’s you!”
Mrs. Hunter agreed, and Mr. Hunter naturally had no objection.
Besides, with such great strength, what does it matter if it’s a man or a woman? Just be able to do the job of shearing sheep.
In this way, Xu Yin, with her permanent supernatural power, successfully stayed in the Hunter family's small ranch and became the only shearer in the ranch.
Although these days, private ranchers’ employment of workers is far less formal than in later generations. There is no need to sign a formal contract, and there are no strict rules and welfare guarantees like later generations. However, wages are paid with pay slips. Mrs. Hunter copied Xu Yin’s passport. When the name was written, it was a bit difficult to pronounce, so Xu Yin said: "Call me Sean."
Shaun the Sheep.
Sounds quite close to her real name.
From then on, she had an additional English name, Sean.
Except for the cook, all the workers who work in the ranch are tall and rough-looking men. Mrs. Hunter specially arranged Xu Yin’s dormitory near the main house.
It was a small single room that had been converted from a wine cellar. It was a little too small and could only accommodate a one-meter wooden bed, a chest of drawers and a small single table and chair.
But before the cellar was dug, a wine cellar was built here, and the sun and moisture protection was quite good. Living there is quite comfortable, especially since it is close to the main house. If you shout something, you can hear it from the main house.
Xu Yin stayed at the Hunter family's small ranch.
This is also the case in this era where information is underdeveloped. You can make a difference by studying abroad, otherwise you will be called upon by the school every minute.
After living at the ranch, she sheared sheep with old George during the day. With her as a strong assistant, old George no longer had to worry about the endless work. If a sheep was disobedient and just ate and refused to be sheared, Xu Yin would step in. .
At the beginning, Xu Yin was like a big devil in the eyes of these sheep.
No sheep can escape her clutches!
Didn’t she see their eldest brother, the perverse thorn-headed sheep that had broken through the sheepfold several times, almost succeeded in running away from home, and even escaped the fate of being sheared once last year, was she caught and sheared of all its hair?
Until now, I still have no hope of living.
So much so that when most of the sheep saw Xu Yin, they were so frightened that they trembled in place.
Let them do whatever the big devil tells them to do.
It is also the same as extending the head and retracting the head, so why bother with it?
“So good!” Xu Yin brought the best hay to the sheep that cooperated with her obediently, and rewarded them with a sip of her own water—clear spring water soaked in spiritual mist.
She felt that these sheep were so obedient that they didn’t even need to be chased. When it was their turn to be sheared, they would line up and go to the shearing room and lie down wherever they wanted.
Xu Yin cut their hair by hand. After she mastered the trick, she made the scissors faster and faster. She sharpened the blade before cutting, and she kept cutting without stopping. She could match the speed of old George's electric clippers. .
The key point is that she is very gentle with these obedient sheep. After shearing, she will massage them to help them adapt to the body temperature of their hairless bodies to avoid getting sick. It can also promote blood circulation and accelerate hair growth.
As for the few rebellious and rebellious sheep in human adolescence that are disobedient, refuse to cooperate no matter how hard they are driven, and resist shearing, they are not treated so well—
They were fed the lowest grass in the haystack and drank ordinary water. If they did not cooperate with the shearing, they were taken to the shearing room and suppressed by Xu Yin's force, and then old George took over the shearing.
Old George was not as gentle and patient as her in shearing. He continued to cut even when the electric clipper got hot. Anyway, Xu Yin, a strong man, was holding down the sheep, so the blade got stuck, so he stopped to add some oil to lubricate it, and then continued to cut. Leave after cutting. massage? What good things are you thinking about?
After too many times, those rebellious sheep no longer dared to raise their hooves and refused to cooperate with the shearing.
The main thing is that pouting is useless, there is no way to escape the fate of the wool being sheared. Instead of enduring being pressed and sheared, it is better to cooperate obediently.
With the combination, you not only have delicious hay and delicious water, but you can also enjoy a gentle massage. How comfortable! The winner of the Goat birth is nothing more than this.
So, more and more sheep, it was their turn to be sheared, and they obediently came to Xu Yin, lay down and let them be sheared.
But she only has one person and one pair of hands. No matter how efficient she is, she can't massage her. She has to queue up, and the sheep who are sheared first can enjoy it first.
In this case, there is no need for people to chase them away. These sheep are rushing to get to the shearing room before it is too late.
Hunter and his wife were confused: When did his sheep become so well-behaved? Not to mention cooperation in shearing, but still rush to the shearing room? After entering, go to the ground and let Xu Yin and Old George cut as they please. Don't stick out your hooves, don't howl, they are a good bunch.
Sheep: How can you let old George shear it casually? It was old George who was so shameless that when he saw them approaching the new shearer, he came over with a clipper while they were lying on the ground and started to grab them before he could even run away.
In any case, because of the cooperation of the sheep, Xu Yin and Old George were shearing faster and faster.
Mr. Hunter rubbed his chin and suddenly thought: "Do you want to participate in the sheep shearing competition?"
Cooktown holds a sheep shearing competition every year. The participants are usually outstanding shearers from various ranches. Whoever can shear the most and clean sheep within the time limit will be the current sheep shearing champion.
Old George waved his hand: "I'll forget it. I participated in it when I was young, but I didn't win any prizes at that time. Now that I'm old, my energy is not as good as that of young people, and I won't have a chance to participate, so I won't bother."
Xu Yin asked curiously: "Is there any reward for the champion?"
She lived on the ranch for a while and gradually fell in love with this place.
Looking up is the blue sky and white clouds, looking down is the vast pasture, and there are towering mountains in the distance. I want to buy a piece of land here to settle down.
But she is poor.
Although she has a lot of money in hand, the tax for foreigners who want to buy land and real estate in the country is much higher than that of locals, so she is eager to earn some extra money to replenish her capital.
Mr. Hunter laughed when he heard this: "It seems that Sean is still a little money man!"
Xu Yin: Laugh, laugh, who is not a little money-lover?
