magic ranch

Chapter 165

(Thanks to my friend Tian Baiyunfeng for the reward and encouragement, and thanks to my friends abdy, Yaoye 1993, aeseas monthly pass for encouragement)

On this day, Liu Heming and George came to the trading market in Glent Town again, bringing Alex with them.The bear kids didn't dare to take them. Now they are a bit bigger, but not like when they were young.

The reason for coming here this time is also very simple, it is to buy cows.

When he was at home, he didn't drink much milk, but after coming here, he got used to drinking it and drank some every day.He thought, anyway, the ranch is big and there are so many corns, so why not raise a small cow and milk it for yourself.

When he told George about this idea, George laughed so hard that he was a little confused.

Someone George said, one cow is not enough, at least two are needed.The reason why he laughed just now was because Liu Heming spoke in layman's terms.Dairy cows also have to give birth to calves before they can produce milk. In fact, the milk that people eat every day is snatched from calves.What do you want a cow for?I can't conceive a baby, where can I give you milk.

He originally wanted to buy a mature cow so that he could continue to milk it when he returned home.But George said again, you eat it yourself, it is best to raise it with a calf, so that you can keep an eye on its health at any time.Dairy cows are different from beef cattle, as long as they have a good fattening period, if you think about the quality of milk, the overall quality of dairy cows is very important.

Liu Heming is an outsider, and George is an expert, so his awesome plan this time has to be slightly adjusted, from the original one to two, from the big to the small.

When we came to the trading market, it was very lively here.Winter is coming soon, so now is the peak period for cattle and sheep trading.It's just that here, there are still more cattle than sheep.

Although Americans are now trying to eat mutton, there are still very few chefs who can cook well and get rid of the smell.Anyway, Liu Heming had never seen any mutton sellers in Walker Town or Glent Town, otherwise he wanted to buy some shabu-shabu.

In the past, Liu Heming and his daughter would let her play here by herself.But it doesn't work now, the daughter's affinity is too high, and he is worried about what trouble the daughter will cause here.That's why he held my daughter's little hand tightly to save her from running around.

Even if looking at those meat calves is very greedy, he can only be greedy, because he doesn't have that financial strength.

There are also a lot of cows for sale here, and Liu Heming's understanding of cows has been refreshed in terms of varieties.In his cognition, cows are black and white, but on his side, there are more than one breed.

Black and white Holstein cattle, red and white Ayrshire cattle, brown Jersey cattle, yellow and white Guernsey cattle, Swiss brown cattle with both milk and meat...there are so many breeds, which dazzled Liu Heming anyway.

"Dexter, each type of cow has its own advantages, but I suggest you choose between Holstein cows and Jersey cows." George said after browsing around.

"The milk production of Holstein cattle is the highest among all breeds, but the shortcomings are also obvious, such as heat intolerance and low milk fat rate. When the summer heat is high, the milk production will drop significantly. Although the milk production of Jersey cattle It is very low, but the milk fat rate is high, and it is more heat resistant.”

"Actually, there are many new breeds of dairy cows here that are bred by crossbreeding Jersey cows with other cows in order to increase the milk fat rate. Just like in New Zealand, nearly half of the breed of dairy cows is Holstein. A new breed of cattle and Jersey cattle.”

"George, which one do you think is better?" Liu Heming frowned and asked.

He has a bit of choice syndrome. Both breeds of cattle are highly praised by George, and their respective advantages are also very prominent. On the contrary, he doesn't know how to choose.

"I am more inclined to the Jersey cow. There are not many people in your family. The milk production of the Jersey cow is low enough for your family. Of course, you can also choose one. If you can also breed It is even better for a new variety that can take into account both milk production and milk fat percentage." George said with a smile.

"OK, let's do the same thing." Liu Heming nodded and said.

"Dexter, I was just joking just now. New breeds of dairy cows are not so easy to breed. Sometimes it takes several generations." George said hastily.

It was really a joke just now, but Liu Heming took it seriously.Indeed, when these two types of cattle are crossed, there is a certain chance that a good breed will appear. Isn't it just bred in New Zealand?But the greater probability is still based on failure.In other words, nothing will work, and all indicators will not work.

Otherwise, if it is really so easy to breed, the world will be full of various excellent breeds of dairy cows, and it will be the turn of only these breeds to be more famous.

"George, it's okay. I'm just using it at home. Let's keep it for fun. And I plan to buy some beef calves." Liu Heming said with a smile.

George's words really touched his "ambition".What if?What if a new variety comes out of tinkering?There is a system, so what are you afraid of?

In the past, he only thought about raising beef cattle on his pasture, but why couldn't he raise dairy cows?The sales of milk here are so high, if it is really made out, it will be posted.And it's not just for making money, but also for completing the task assigned to him by the system.

As for the five special varieties, how can they be so easy to gather, now they can only cast a wide net, and catch one is one.

George was dumbfounded. He didn't know what kind of madness Liu Heming was going to buy a beef calf.

Liu Heming's heart is bitter. Although he loves money, he still has to buy it.The task of the system has a deadline. During this period of time, the money saved in the restaurant, plus a little bit of my own savings, is estimated to be accounted for when buying a calf.

George bit the bullet to help Liu Heming choose all kinds of calves, and Liu Heming also bite the bullet to pay by card.The dairy cows bought two Holsteins and two Jerseys each, and three beef cattle, Charlotte bulls, Angus and Simmental cows.

Regarding Liu Heming's procurement method, although everyone didn't say it clearly, the meaning in their eyes was obvious.This is a whimsical lunatic, and I can see it every year anyway, but this year is particularly crazy.

How many people want to breed high-quality breeding cattle, and they end up bankrupt. Is it so easy to breed?Now another little lunatic broke in over his own strength, and wanted to breed a new breed with the help of these three calves that were not of high pedigree?That's not what a madman is.

Liu Heming and George also knew that such a purchase was too "crazy" and somewhat embarrassing.The only one who was happy was Alex, who couldn't be happier to see these little calves.
