:18:13
They're going to get away.
:18:15
Wherever they go,
they'll be on my land.
:18:22
My land. We're here,
and we're going to stay here.
:18:27
Give me 10 years. I'll have that brand
on the greatest ranch in Texas.
:18:34
The big house will be down by the river,
and the corrals and the barns behind it.
:18:38
It'll be a good place to live in.
:18:41
Ten years and I'll have the Red River D
on more cattle than you've ever seen.
:18:46
I'll have that brand on enough beef
to feed the whole country.
:18:51
Good beef for hungry people.
:18:53
Beef to make them strong,
make them grow.
:18:58
It takes work, and it takes sweat.
:19:01
And it takes time,
lots of time.
:19:05
It takes years.
:19:08
Well, we've had
our ten years and more.
:19:11
- About 14.
- Near to 15, and we've got the cattle.
:19:13
- About 14.
- Near to 15, and we've got the cattle.
:19:15
Thousands of heads of good beef.
:19:18
And there as they stand there isn't
a head worth a plug three-cent piece.
:19:22
Three-cent piece? That's more silver
money than I've seen since the war.
:19:26
That's right. It all happened
while you were away, Matt.
:19:30
More cattle than a man could
gather elsewhere in two lifetimes.
:19:35
And I'm broke.
Unless we can move them, I'm broke.
:19:39
Figured that's why
you rounded them up.
:19:40
I'm not going to take it haunch-backed
like the rest around here.
:19:43
- If there's no cattle market in Texas--
- And there ain't.
:19:46
Then I'll take them
where there is a market...
:19:48
if it means driving them
a thousand miles.
:19:50
- Missouri?
- Yeah.
:19:52
That's what I figured.
:19:54
Seems you two have been
doing a lot of figuring.
:19:57
While you were at it, did you figure out
the best way to get them there?
