Chapter 123: 122. Ranch for Sale

Wang Bo didn't expect that the first meeting of the ruling class in the small town he held would end like this. There was no sound of gongs and drums, no firecrackers, and no flowers and baskets, which made him very unhappy.

However, the atmosphere of the meeting was good. Everyone attacked the cowboy and kept making fun of him. Although there was no theme, the atmosphere was not dull.

This meeting also yielded some results, that is, the town's first five-year development plan was formulated-the first May, the focus was on the town's grassroots construction, such as the power system, such as the water supply system, such as the network supply system, etc. wait.

In this regard, Hani is an expert. Although he has not been in charge of the construction of a town, he has never eaten pork. He has lived in many small towns and can give Wang Bo a lot of advice.

After the meeting was over, Wang Bo invited Hani to live in the castle with him again. Anyway, there were plenty of vacant rooms, and the more people there were, the more lively it was. And Kobe is in charge of cooking, he doesn't have to move.

Hani refused, and little Hani breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Bo didn't want to anymore. He said to the second-year boy, "You stay here and stay with your father."

The young man became impatient: "No, I want to live in a castle! Living in a castle is good for sleep and food, anyway, it's comfortable to stay there!"

This is true. Speaking of which, the two additions of the Castle Heart can be considered to have reached the second level. Now people live more comfortably inside, and the air is fresher than outside.

Hani smiled and said, "Mayor, don't tease this guy, you go and live. I'm used to living in the workplace. Besides, there are several vacant rooms on the second floor. It's good to live here."

Hani was a little flattered that the second-year boy finally gave his father a good face. At the same time, he was also curious about how good the castle was, and how attractive it was to his rebellious little donkey.

Two days after the meeting, Buck drove to the small town. He was driving a Chevrolet pickup truck with cages, saying he was here to buy sheep.

It has been a week since the end of the charity auction, and the time has shifted to mid-March, and no one has come to buy cattle and sheep. Wang Bo thought that Charlie's price was too high to dissuade the enthusiasm of the residents of the small town.

Charlie's quotation really made the people in the small town hesitate for a while. A sheep costing more than a thousand yuan was a little stressful for them.

Omarama is not a big city like Wellington. There may be some local tyrants here, but most of them are working class. Their income is very low, three or four thousand yuan a month.

As far as Wang Bo knows, the current minimum wage in New Zealand is 14.25 New Zealand dollars an hour. Under normal circumstances, odd jobs are at this wage level. For example, students go to KFC, McDonald's, Burger King and other places to work.

Of course, in the national report, the average salary in New Zealand last year was 72,731 New Zealand dollars, and the per capita monthly salary was more than 6,000 yuan.

Calculated in this way, the price of Wang Bo's whole sheep is ten yuan per pound. The meat rate of Boer goats raised now is the highest, which is about 50%. It's twenty yuan.

Beef and mutton are the staple food of New Zealanders, and a family can eat two to three pounds a day, which is about 50 yuan, which is a bit too high for a working class with a monthly income of more than 3,000 yuan.

Buck was complaining about the high price of meat, Wang Bo said with a friendly smile: "We are friends, buddy, so I can give you a discount, how about a 20% discount?"

After hearing this, Buck was overjoyed. He could save two or three hundred yuan by buying a sheep with a 20% discount.

This time Buck wanted to buy two sheep, and Wang Bo explained to him: "The meat of the Romney sheep is better, and the yield rate of the Boer goat is higher. How do you choose?"

Buck blinked, and said strangely: "Isn't the meat of Boer goats more delicious?"

Boer goat is a specialized meat sheep with high lean meat, low acid content in meat and better taste. The Romney sheep is a dual-purpose sheep with meat and wool, and its taste is definitely not as good as that of Boer goats.

But the pasture is different. The taste of beef and mutton in the pasture is only related to the time when they received the heart of the pasture. Romney sheep came to the pasture twice as long as Boer goats, and the meat quality improved even better.

Wang Bo gave a vague explanation, but Buck didn't care. He said, "How about a Boer goat and a Romney goat, I'll try it when I go back."

It was a good idea, and a few people drove to the pasture in the bumpy car.

Now the scale of the ranch has expanded, and there are countless cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, pigs, geese, and even wild boars.

On the emerald green pastures, two kinds of sheep attract the most attention. Whether they are Romney sheep or Boer goats, the coat color is mainly white, so they look very conspicuous.

When Buck came to his ranch for the first time, he first exclaimed: "Oh, Sheter, your wool here is so clean, it's as white as my clean dishes."

Wang Bo smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, buddy, obviously the sheep I raise are just like me, they love to be clean."

But then Buck said, "My God, king, your pasture has no boundaries? Why don't you fence these things?"

Lao Wang came up with that set of explanations, saying that the beef and mutton raised in captivity are not tasty, and the free-range animals raised like him have recovered their nature and the meat quality is better.

Buck looked at him in surprise and said, "Aren't you worried that the animals will leave your territory, or someone will steal the cattle and sheep?"

New Zealand has never been a paradise on earth, because of legal loopholes, petty theft is very serious here, but Lao Wang is not worried, because not many people know that he has a ranch now.

Catching sheep is very simple. Wang Bo asked Buck which one he liked. Buck drove around and pointed to a fat Romney sheep and said, "Let's go to this one first. It's really beautiful."

After finding the target, Buck stopped the car and took the rope to prepare for it.

Wang Bo shook his hand and said with a smile: "No need, buddy, look at me."

He called the strong man over, and then pointed to the big sheep.

After receiving the order, the Mastiff was like a rocket attacking. It quickly rushed to the Romney sheep with its four paws, knocked it down at once, and grabbed its neck with its paws to catch it.

Seeing this scene, Buck was amazed again: "Wang, this assistant of yours is awesome. Look at its movements, it's so skillful. You must exercise it often."

Wang Bo smiled and didn't say a word, just practiced a fart. After teaching once, the strong man became an excellent shepherd dog without a teacher.

The Romney sheep weighed a hundred and fifty pounds and was worth twelve hundred after discounts.

Compared with Romney sheep, Boer goats are more difficult to catch. Sheep are less athletic than goats, and New Zealand Romney sheep are very lazy, and they stay for a few days after finding a suitable site.

However, for a strong man, catching a Boer goat would take an extra ten seconds.

After Buck selected a goat, the strong man pressed it to the ground, and Wang Bo went up and tied it up.
