Lisko’s American Life

Chapter 522: Bad news on the ranch

In the morning, the lake was calmer. Lisko watched the ripples on the mirror-like lake, and his heart became more peaceful.

After a morning of fishing, he had a rich harvest. There were already a few small fish floating in the bucket. Because the space was small, the fish were crowded and looked full.

Lisko knows very well that his fishing skills are not so superb, and his level is only an amateur among amateurs. He is satisfied with this harvest.

This is because the fish in the small lake is rich, there are no natural enemies, and there are not many people who come here to fish. In addition, the water resources are abundant, so the fish begin to develop unscrupulously.

In a good mood, he came directly to stew fish soup at noon, and he cooked it himself. If he cooks by himself every day, it may be a burdensome job. It is still very comfortable to cook the food you like occasionally.

I was going to take a nap in the afternoon, but was woken up by David's loud shout, and Payne knocked on his door just in time.

"Sir. David wants to see you on something. It looks like something happened at the ranch."

"pasture?"

As he changed his pajamas, he wondered. David can usually make up his mind about the ranch, and he doesn't need to ask himself at all. This is the authority he gave the other party.

Thinking about it, it should be a big thing, so his movements also became quicker.

Going downstairs, David, dressed in a cowboy costume and a brown cowboy hat, was waiting. It could be seen that he was very anxious and kept wandering in place.

"What's wrong?"

Lisko asked with a frown.

"Sir, there is a problem with our ranch. There may be an infectious disease. I have sent someone to the veterinarian."

David's forehead is covered with sweat. This is not a small matter. For the ranch, this is the most serious accident. If it is confirmed, the livestock in the entire ranch may be burnt centrally to prevent the possibility of infection. At the scale of the ranch now, that's a loss of nearly a few million dollars.

So he was very anxious.

As Lisko, who grew up on a ranch, he also understood the urgency of the matter, so after walking to the living room, he didn't stop at all, just picked up the windbreaker next to him and put it on for himself, motioning for David to follow.

On the way, David also explained the ins and outs of this matter to him clearly.

In the morning, the cowboys, as usual, went to their stables to prepare for grazing on horseback. The grass in the pasture had begun to emerge. It was the tender time, and the cattle liked this kind of food the most. Hammer found a horse that was a little lethargic. At first, he thought it was a gastrointestinal problem, so he did not ride this horse, but chose the spare horse next to him.

After the grazing came back, the horse was already on the ground, roaring incessantly, and foaming from its mouth. At this time, everyone realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately reported it to David.

Lisko frowned, this is not easy to handle. If it is determined to be an infectious disease, the loss is a small matter, and the development of the ranch will definitely be stagnant.

Even this situation may spread to the entire state of Colorado. Most of the livestock produced in this state capital will be humanely destroyed, completely eliminating the possibility of infection.

Many ranches will go bankrupt because of this. The ranch is the most important economic pillar of Colorado. The economic situation in this region will be hit no less than another financial turmoil.

Along the way, he has been tensing his face, considering various consequences and how to deal with it.

When they arrived at the stables, the cowboys were standing far outside the fence. Because it was not sure whether it was an infectious disease, the protection measures for people should also be adequate. Many large-scale viruses were also transmitted from livestock to people. on the body.

"coming."

Jimmy was driving the pickup, and a sudden brake stopped nearby, and a familiar figure came down from the car. It was the new veterinarian, Gary Kubiak, who was seen at the Rooster's house last time.

Lisko greeted with a heavy face.

"Gary, please, stay safe."

At this time, nothing is of much use. The most important thing is to first determine the cause and cause. If it is not an infectious disease, then everyone is happy. If it is an infectious disease, Lisko has more things to do. First, report it to the state government and the livestock association. , waiting for the government departments to deal with, the biggest result of the treatment can only be the destruction of all livestock.

Gary nodded, opened the medical box he carried with him, and took out a protective suit from it. His face was completely isolated, and only a transparent window could see the outside.

Seeing Gary walk into the stable, everyone's heart twitched. This is a big event for the entire ranch. What happens next depends on Gary's diagnosis.

Because the horse that Hanmer often rides was upside down, so he stood the closest, and kept whispering the name of the horse in his mouth, thinking that this would make the other person feel more comfortable.

Horses are the closest companions to cowboys. In addition, Americans often regard the animals raised at home as part of the family. Everyone's eyes can't help but be moved.

Gary crouched down, first opened the horse's mouth with his gloved hand, carefully looked at the situation inside, and put his hand on the horse's body to feel its breathing.

At this time, the horses were no longer able to neigh, and their bodies rose and fell, looking extremely weak.

Lisko put a mask on his face and held his chin.

Hammer had already started to cross his chest, praying that God would give the partner a little strength to keep waiting for the inspection to end.

Gary moved more and more, because he was facing his back, so everyone couldn't see his expression clearly, and he didn't know whether the situation was good or bad.

I saw him take out a cotton swab from the medical box, carefully wipe the white foam on the corner of the horse's mouth, put it into a test tube, and add some reagents whose names are unclear.

After doing this, step by step came out of it.

However, the subconscious movements of the cowboys were all taking a step back, not even Lisko.

Gary looked at everyone and felt helpless. He took off his protective suit clumsily, and then took a deep breath of air.

"How about it?"

A few dozen meters away, Li Ke's voice involuntarily increased the volume, shouting with a look of anticipation.

"It's very bad. It is Bacillus anthracis, which is contagious to a certain extent, so all livestock on the pasture need to be checked to find out the infected as soon as possible, and then concentrate on treatment to avoid further expansion."
