Alpine pasture

Chapter 493 Low-grade beef
Dinah was busy with her own affairs, and most of the matter of seeing the second devil fell on Ju An herself. After sending Dinah and Cora off all morning, Ju An squatted in the room to accompany the child. The bigger ones, Xiaohu and Xiaochi, are better. The Demon King can drool over the cradle now, and he can crawl without stopping. If you watch TV, you can babble next to you, no matter what. If you ignore him, he is very happy talking alone, and he will crawl out of the cradle if you don’t pay attention. You can often find the chubby figure of the devil king behind the sofa or under the coffee table, and the more corners the place, the more the baby is. like.

"Where is my little grandson?" Mom asked seriously, looking at her son who was watching a football game on TV on the sofa.

Ju An turned his face and looked into the cradle. The cradle was empty, and the little devil crawled to nowhere. He opened his head and looked around, and found that Wu Song and his wife were squatting on the platform on the big wall. , immediately stood up and walked towards the stage, stretched his head on the ground and looked inside, the devil was lying against the wall, and saw his father grinning: "ah, ah ".The little hands happily patted the floor.

Ju An stretched out his hand to reach it, and the little devil clings to the wall inside. Ju An couldn't reach it, as if he was happy that his father couldn't catch him. Try to move the table away, and feel that the weight is not light. The furniture in the house is all solid wood, and there is a [-]-[-] cm prancing horse ornament cast in bronze, of course, the weight is not light.But Ju An had a way, and said to Wu Song, "Pull this little thing out for me."

As soon as the words fell, Wu Song got under the stage, and within two seconds, he dragged his son's two chubby legs to get the child out. Ju An pulled his son who was still about to crawl inside, stretched out his hand There was a light pat on the little butt: "Let you make trouble!".After the filming, Xiaozheng still smiled, the saliva around his mouth drew a trace on the floor, and a few rice grain-sized teeth leaked out of his mouth.Ju An hugged her son, smelling the sweet milk scent on his son, kissed his little cheek fiercely, and then put his head against Xiao Zheng's little head: "You little bastard! You are so naughty!".

After sitting back on the sofa, he was about to hand over Xiaozheng to his mother. The mother took the grandson's hand and teased him a few times: "I'm still busy with cooking. The eggplants, leeks and celery that Melina gave Yes, fry a little of everything today."

Ju An put his son on his lap and sat down: "We have made so much, Dinah and Cora are not here, we are the only ones left at home, just make some, let's fry some celery."

My mother took a look at Ju An: "I'm not as good as you? This dish has to be cut into small pieces. Children don't like vegetables very much, so they mix up a few more."

While talking, Xiao Chi and Xiao Hu came over and said to grandma: "Grandma! I want to drink water."

"Okay, follow grandma to the kitchen to get juice." The mother smiled and led a child into the kitchen.

Ju An was sitting on the sofa with his son in his arms and watching the game. After a while, Clockwork came in and ran to Ju An's side. He stretched his head to look at Xiaozheng in Ju An's arms. Stretching his head over, rubbing against Ju An's arm, Xiao Zheng happily squatted together and stretched out his chubby hands to pull the clockwork's mane.Then he grabbed the clockwork's mouth with both hands and pulled it hard.

Hearing Clockwork's low growl, Ju An saw that the little man had already grabbed Clockwork's beard in his hand, fearing that his son would tear off Clockwork's beautiful beard, he quickly opened his son's hand, Not to mention that this little hand is really strong, Ju An has to use two hands to break it open.

"Go! While playing, he leaned forward again, have you forgotten what Xiaochi and Xiaohu learned when they were two children?" He stretched out his hand and slapped Clockwork's forehead and said.Suddenly felt something was wrong, stunned and found that there were only three, and this Huahua didn't know where it went.

Ju An didn't see Hua Hua and didn't take it very seriously, anyway, Hua Hua might have gone to play somewhere.Watching Clockwork lying down a few hands away from him, Ju An continued to watch the game.

After lunch, my mother had time to take her little grandson with her, and Juan ran to the stable to saddle Dougao in the free time.

Riding Bean Grass, I ran around the pasture with Snowflake and the foal, and stopped by to see the Shire horses. These horses are just a little bit of concern for Juan now, and the cowboys are not too excited. I agree. As for the few Normans that Ju An ordered to take care of them and study them, there is nothing left to say. This group of people started to work for themselves. It is estimated that they will record it for a month to see if they are sick.

Going around, I arrived at the place where Norman’s big cattle were raised. Some simple fences were separated on the pasture, and a group of brown cattle surrounded the fence. Now some gray cattle on the pasture have been mixed into the brown cattle. Many brown cows have round bellies, and some brown calves are running around very lively. Norman, dressed in a cowboy hat and wearing a cowboy hat, is chatting with Benson and Alexander who are also dressed in the same way.

Ju An walked over on a pea grass: "Hi! Norman, Benson, Alexander, how are you all?"

Several people turned their heads and found that Ju An was beside them. They all nodded with a smile and said, "An! Hello! Why do you have time to come here today to have a look?"

Ju An smiled embarrassedly, how dare I mention that my buddies used to watch the helicopter fly around every day.He said to the three old men: "I didn't find anything special about this calf."

"That calf was born less than a week ago," Alexander said, pointing to a calf not far away.

Following the direction of the pressured Shanda's hand, Ju An found a small brown cow with a striking yellow label on its ear. Seeing the size of the calf, Ju An nodded and said in agreement: "This week-old little one But cattle are bigger than white or gray cattle."

"There is a group of cows that are more than one year old over there, I will take you to see them," Norman said to Ju An.

Hearing that it looks like a cow, Ju An nodded, and wanted to turn his back on the grass. Norman smiled and said, "It's not far, just walk."

Ju An patted Dou Cao's neck, signaled Dou Cao to graze here, and walked with the three old Normans.

While walking, Norman said to Ju An: "The cows at Hans Ranch have already started to be bought, and they will be bought in about a month."

"It will take so long?" Ju An asked, frowning. This is your request for buying cows. As long as the requirements are not particularly harsh, the livestock economy will quickly prepare all the cows you need. Buying a cow costs two moon?What's more, it has been almost a month since we started.

Benson said with a smile: "Now the American dairy industry is in a downturn, and many small dairy farms have withdrawn from the dairy industry. It takes time to buy cows from these small ranches, and what we want is small cows. It takes more time. It's one o'clock."

Ju An nodded and agreed with Benson. The milk here in Laomei is not worth much. A gallon of American milk is about 1.7 milliliters, which is a little less than 12 dollars. Considering the price of milk in domestic supermarkets, American labor is still so expensive. More and more family dairy farms have withdrawn from the dairy industry. There is a saying in China that cheap grain hurts farmers, and here in the United States, cheap milk hurts farmers.

Shaking his head in his heart, he thought about why milk in our country is so expensive. Forget it, this is not something that buddies are thinking about. Thinking of this, he said to Norman: "When all the cows are here, I will go to Hans Take a look at the ranch."In the end, my buddies must go around. Although I can’t help you, and I can’t give you any constructive opinions. There are experts, but how to say it should reflect the labor that I, the boss, have paid for the employees. Take care of it.Of course, I also reflected my own existence by the way, lest some people don't know me as the boss when I go there in the future.

Walking and chatting with Norman and Alexander, in about five or six minutes, I saw a group of about ten big cows, which were obviously bigger than the gray cows by more than a circle, and the horns on the brown heads were also very small. The length of half a palm, although it is pointed, but with a big head, it can be seen that it looks good.

Walking to the side of the cow, Ju An stretched out his hand to touch the cow, and asked Norman, "These cows are just one year old?".

Norman nodded and said, "Just over a year old."Then he pointed to the one on the far side and said to Ju An: "So far, that cow is the heaviest. Last week when it was weighed, it weighed more than 210 kilograms. Now the bulls weigh more than 100 kilograms." , the cow is about a thousand kilograms lighter."

"Is there any improvement in the quality of the meat?" Ju An touched the belly of the cow, feeling that he could not feel the ribs, and his whole body was full of taut meat.

Norma smiled and said: "The performance of the meat can only be said to be average. It is similar to ordinary free-range beef, but the meat yield is much higher. This is very good, and it is resistant to rough feeding. Alfalfa, weeds, leaves, everything can eat".

It turned out to be a cow with a big belly. He reached out and patted the cow's back, then turned to Norman and said, "If you can ensure that the cows are of this standard, you can raise them."

With the help of space and water, Ju'an is using good irrigation as a cover, and there is no need for large-scale migration of cattle. This also reduces the number of people used to graze cattle. Naturally, the cost of beef will come down. It is impossible for everyone to If you can eat gray cattle or white beef, you should also pay attention to the ordinary market. The entire beef market must have a suitable variety for high and low grades.Of course, free-range cattle will definitely not be able to enter the lowest gear, and this lowest gear should be reserved for captive cattle.

"Are you going to raise this kind of cow?" Norman looked at Ju An happily and asked.

Ju An nodded and said to the three old men: "Of course I'm going to raise them. If it's not a waste of your research results, I'll buy a ranch and raise these cows separately when there are enough numbers. Get up, it will be good to supplement the beef structure of the pasture at that time."After thinking about it for a while, Ju An asked, "By the way, the patent of the cattle breed has been applied for."

"I applied for it a long time ago." Norman said with a smile, "Not only this breed of cattle, but also the other breeds of cattle that failed to apply."

Forget it, being a buddy for nothing, talking about patents with these researchers, buddy is really looking for the wrong person, these people want to apply for a patent after all the research.
