Alpine pasture

Chapter 320 New Location

In the next few days, Ju An did not appear on the ranch, and Thomas and Lawrence, the two people responsible for accompanying the Department of Agriculture, stayed at home. When Cora came with the child in the morning, she went out of the house so as not to listen to the two. A woman nags the child endlessly, takes the key to the horse head behind Wang Fan's house, drives the speedboat to the lake for a lap, or rides the bean grass for a lap on the track, you need to ask beforehand when you go to the track Hou Sen, don't let the naughty bag and the bean grass meet with each other, or you will get angry again.

The efficiency of the Ministry of Agriculture is really hard to say. After a group of people returned to the ranch, they received the results on the third day. The white and gray cattle were officially registered as excellent cattle breeds, and they were controlled and slaughtered and sold later. A series of them are subject to government supervision, and both types of cattle are only allowed to circulate in the United States and cannot be exported to any country in the form of live cattle.

Ju An glanced at it and threw a few pieces of paper aside, focusing on his son on his lap.Dinah sat next to her, picked it up, looked at it and said to Ju An, "Isn't this good news, why are you a little dissatisfied?".

"I thought I could reduce my taxes a little bit, but who knows what I didn't mention at all, these bureaucrats are really petty! No matter what, I want to reduce my taxes a few more points," Ju An said to Dinah.

Dinah said with a smile: "Our ranch has already enjoyed the discount, don't be greedy enough."

"In the future, I have to report a series of things for sale. This will add trouble to me, and will increase the operating costs of my ranch in disguise, right?" Ju An teased the son in his arms and said to Dinah with a smile.

Dinah shook the pieces of paper in her hand: "How much has your cost increased? With these pieces of paper as proof, the price of beef on the ranch will increase a lot."

"I hope it's what you said." Ju An clapped his son's hand in his hand: "Happy! Happy! Happy! Happy! Hey! Hey! Hey!".He spoke to his son in Chinese and English.

As soon as a children's song was sung, Cora pushed the stroller in through the back door. When her son saw his little friend, he immediately became happy. Cora took Huzi out of the stroller, and Ju An also put his son on the sofa. , The two little hairs sat together, each stuffed a toy in their hands, and the two little people started humming while drooling.

Ju An watched for a while and said to Dinah and Cora, "What do you think these two little meatballs are talking about? They look so happy."

Dinah and Cora laughed when Ju An said about the two little meatballs, and Cora said, "Who knows what they're talking about, I don't understand at all, both of them can babble when they meet each other. many hours".

After hearing this, Ju An stood up from the sofa and said to Cora, "When will Wang Fan be back?".

"The day after tomorrow, he has been in business for a while now, it seems to be some kind of food production line," Cora said with a smile.

"Then I know. Today, I went to the ranch to get some milk and gray beef back. Last night, I asked if there is half a hind leg left in the beef, and I don't want to go into the belly of the cowboys." Ju An said to Dinah. .

After listening to it, Dinah said: "Then go ahead, can't you slaughter more gray cattle in the pasture, and you have to make a reservation to eat beef from her own pasture."

Ju An said with a smile: "There are few gray cows, even the bulls are kept for breeding. Thomas is very distressed that the Ministry of Agriculture has come to slaughter four heads, and the number will be increased by half next year. I want to kill it, but I can't bear it."

According to Thomas's plan, all the black cattle in the pasture will be sold out next year. By that time, there will be only gray and white cattle on the pasture. There will be no problem with the white beef. The gray cattle will still have slaughter restrictions, and only a few bulls will be slaughtered.

As soon as I got on the plane and was about to start the propeller, I heard the phone ring, and seeing that it was Ninjuan, he picked it up: "Nin! How is it? Has the new ranch been discussed?".

"Yeah! The final decision has been made. The state is going to sell [-] acres, and the price is two percent higher than the market price. What do you think?" Nien said with a smile.

After hearing this, Ju An immediately nodded and said, "Okay! I have no opinion, then let's take a note. I just happened to be going to the ranch to let the two old men know the good news!".

After Nin said a few more words, he hung up the phone and called Lawrence again: "Lawrence! I'm Ann! The new ranch has been taken down, and I'm about to go to the office now. Where are you going to meet and discuss? next thing."

Lawrence replied with a happy smile: "Then stop by and pick me up, I'll wait for you at the east camp."

After hanging up the phone, Ju An drove the helicopter into the air, and when he arrived at the camp, he received Lawrence and the two flew towards the ranch office together.

Arrived in front of the office, parked the plane and walked down, saw Thomas and Leonard already standing at the door chatting with a bottle of beer in each hand, and saw Ju An and the two got off the plane and raised the bottle in their hands Signaled.

The four of them sat casually at the table in the conference room.Ju An announced the size of the new ranch, and then said: "In the next few days, Lawrence will start to prepare the new ranch, not a separate independent ranch, but still a part of the Xishuihe ranch, and the selection of cowboys and other things will still be handed over to You and Thomas, if you don't raise cattle this year, you'll have to build houses and fences first."

After hearing this, Lawrence nodded and said, "After you mentioned it to me last time, I asked Zhuang to drive the helicopter around to have a look. If it comes in, the railing on one side of the old ranch will be removed, and the new ranch will also be surrounded on three sides. Railings, the work is not small, there is not a single railing around the country ranch."

Ju An thought for a while and said to Lawrence: "How much does it cost to enclose it all? By the way, this time, it's not like the old ranch here. There are two wooden stakes connected to a barbed wire, and in winter, deer and other things can get in directly from below. , block these pests directly with wood or something."

After hearing this, Lawrence said to Ju An: "If the best thing is to use three or four layers of wooden fences, but this will cost two or three times the money. It is impossible to make a circle without 400 million." .

After listening to it, Ju An said, "No problem! This money is not deducted from the cowboys' dividends and directly from the ranch's profit. Not only is the new place urgent, the fence of the old ranch will also need to be replaced, the three-layer isolation fence or You can handle the four-layer isolation fence."

After hearing this, Thomas was stunned and said, "An! A ranch as big as ours doesn't do this. Generally, the four-layer wooden fence is a small ranch. Our ranch is a big investment." .

After listening to it, Ju An said to Thomas, "I remember hearing you say that it is better to consider a wooden fence for a long time."

Thomas nodded and said, "Of course, wooden fences are better than wire fences in terms of maintenance and use time, and they are not easily broken by wild animals or bison."

"That's fine!" Ju An put her hands on the table and spread it out, and continued: "In this way, you only need to drive a helicopter around for maintenance in the future, instead of riding a horse and a few cowboys for a day or two. ".After all, the iron wire is a little too thin, and it is really unclear whether it is broken or not when it is not close.

Lawrence followed up and asked, "Are you going to raise cattle this year? If you don't raise cattle, the cowboys won't have to hire them this year, and just hire a construction company to make the fence."

After listening to Ju An, he said, "You can do this. If you don't need it, you can hire it again next year. This year's main task is to build a new location and fence. Cowboys are not in a hurry. Professor Leonard, you can Go to the new pasture to cultivate pasture and try it in another place.”

Leonard asked Ju An after listening to it, "How are the conditions over there, I said it's the soil or something."

After listening, Lawrence said: "The pasture over there is separated from the current pasture by a small hill. The land is slightly dry and there is no river. The pasture is medium. Looking at the growth of the pasture, there should be some seasonal rivers, or rain and rainwater. the river".

Leonard frowned: "No river? Is there a small lake like the pasture now?".

Lawrence thought for a moment and said, "I don't seem to have noticed it either. You can check it out for yourself tomorrow. Maybe I was in a hurry and didn't see a small lake like the ranch here, maybe one or two."

"Then I'm going to take a look tomorrow. It's a big trouble if there is no water source. The grass needs a lot of water to grow, and even the vines around the pond play an important role in the early stage of the pasture's growth," the old bald Leonard thought for a while and said. .

After listening to it, Ju An smiled and said, "Don't worry, if there is no water in the new place, I will dig a small two-acre pond in the middle, which will definitely ensure that your research has sufficient water."If there is no small pond, the old man must find an excuse to dig one if he doesn't mention Ju An. Where would he pour the space water once a year if he doesn't dig it?Only once a year can the activity of the pasture grass on the pasture be guaranteed. If it does not wither away soon, and the vines have no water to transport to the pasture, it will still grow hairy grass.

Leonard nodded and said, "Then I'll have no problem, I'll try my luck in another place."He smiled wryly and shrugged his shoulders.

Both professors have projects, and Norman's achievements are obvious. The old bald Leonard released some pasture data and helped the ranch sell pasture, but he still has no idea how to cultivate new pasture.Last year, Ju'an Ranch had extra income, and it also paid some research fees to two professors, about 30 yuan each, saying that part of it could be used as sponsorship, and let them see how much was paid as salary. Ju An has no objection, after all, the two professors have helped a lot, they can be regarded as two good shields, saving himself a lot of trouble.

After discussing the main business, Ju An went to the original kitchen refrigerator, picked up the remaining half of the corbel, and carried a large pass of milk out of the house. He wanted to take Lawrence with him. The old man said that he would stay and plan with Thomas. Just went home alone.
