Chapter 145 143. The Arrival of the Deer (515)
Buying the Predator was the right choice. As the cowboy said, this car has excellent climbing performance, and can drive along the potholed mountain road to the castle halfway up the mountain.
However, the momentum of this car is also fierce. The Xuanhe couple were flying to the gate of the castle. When they saw the oncoming predators, they screamed in fright, flapped their wings and flew away...
The strong man ran out, and it tilted its head to look at the predator. Charlie, who was driving, honked the horn full of mischief. Hearing a loud noise, the strong man was startled, and finally opened his mouth and yelled.
After seeing Wang Bo getting off the car, the mastiff calmed down. After it stopped barking, it ran to the armored car and urinated on the tires to determine the ownership of the car.
The ranch bought new equipment, and Wang Bo wanted to celebrate it. Since the cowboys arrived, he hadn't held a party yet, so he took this opportunity to decide to have a wild meal together.
Cowboys are all good at barbecue, and without Bowen doing it, Bibby and the other six brothers slaughtered a sheep and a few pheasants, cleaned them up, set up the oven and started barbecue.
As usual, Wang Bo was sitting on the hillside outside the door, drinking beer, and looking down at his site with great interest, feeling extremely happy.
It's fun to have money!
The town is under construction everywhere, and the construction of the third-class road is finally completed. Porter began to transfer the construction team and replace it with a building construction team. At the location of the residential area he selected, a series of telephone poles were erected, and the circuit was successfully connected. arrive.
The utility poles in towns and cities in New Zealand are very distinctive. They are not made of concrete like in China, but are made of charcoal, that is, a tree trunk is burnt into charcoal and then used as a utility pole.
In Wang Bo's memory, there was this kind of telephone pole in his hometown, but it seems to be a product of the 1950s and 1960s, and it was rare when he was a child.
With the chilly mountain wind blowing, it is already the end of autumn and early winter, and the winter in New Zealand is from June to August. However, the winter here is not too cold, with an average temperature of eight to ten degrees. For Wang, who has lived in BJ for four years, it is a small matter.
Grasses are very sensitive to temperature and seasons. The leaves of most weeds and trees turn yellow and become dry. Even the pastures that have been lush and green before have begun to fade.
Nothing can go against the power of nature, and nothing can go against the power of time!
Wang Bo opened the sand table to check the pasture. There were a flock of snow-white sheep all over the grass. They wriggled slowly, and the wool on their bodies grew thick and delicate.
The Simmental herd is united unprecedentedly. In the past, the herd would be scattered, just like the sheep herd now.
But this will be different, the herds are all gathered together, the bulls, cows and calves are arranged in an orderly manner, grazing quietly.
In front of the herd of cattle, the Bull Demon King is marching with his head held high. He seems to be the leading bull of the parade team. If there is a conflict between the bulls, he will immediately rush to separate them with his rough horns.
Seeing this scene, Lao Wang became interested. It seems that the heart of the beast is a good thing, and the bull devil has become a cow herder.
As soon as the two fighting bulls were separated, the Bull Demon King raised his head and saw a dozen calves running out bouncing around. He raised his head and let out a roar, as if scolding the elders of the juniors.
After hearing its call, the calves shook their heads for a while and ran back, but they seemed very reluctant and kept looking back.
What is the calf looking at? Wang Bo zoomed in on the pasture, and saw a group of beautiful deer appearing on the edge of the pasture not far from the herd of cattle.
There are about 20 deer in this herd, mainly adult deer, with large branch-like horns on the top of the head, black and yellow back hair, white belly, dark brown topline in the center of the back, and bright white plum blossom spots all over the body , is the famous sika deer.
Seeing the herd of deer, Pharaoh lifted his spirits. Hey, this is a rare sight. He had never found sika deer in the pasture before. It should be a new species that just came here.
As far as he knows, sika deer is a first-class protected animal in China, but in New Zealand, a country that likes to protect animals, the deer population is not protected. On the contrary, the deer industry in this country is very developed, and many pastures raise cattle and sheep. deer.
There were no deer in New Zealand. It was in 1847 that British immigrants introduced red deer and red deer.
The original purpose of introducing these deer was to hunt and entertain nobles. However, due to the suitable local climate, rich forage, and few predators, the deer herd developed rapidly.
Too much is too much, this principle is very suitable for New Zealand. In 1930, the number of wild deer in this country increased to 7-8 million, which severely damaged the local vegetation.
After World War II, New Zealand began to strictly control the number of deer. Many wild deer were culled by helicopter. Until now, hunting wild deer is still legal.
But deer play a very important role. They can provide daily necessities such as venison, antler, and deerskin. Gradually, New Zealand developed a formal deer industry.
Wang Bo studied New Zealand's agriculture and animal husbandry when he planned to start a ranch. As of last year, New Zealand had 1.6 million farmed deer, with a production value of 4 billion New Zealand dollars. The benefits created are second only to cattle and sheep. One of the Big Three in farming.
He once thought about breeding deer, but deer breeding is mainly concentrated in the North Island, and it is relatively rare in the South Island. There are almost no deer breeding in the pastures in Aocheng, so no deer species were introduced at that time.
As a result, he was lucky, and now a herd of deer came to his pasture on his own initiative, which is a great thing.
What made him particularly happy was that the ones that came to the ranch were not the red deer, moose and reindeer with the largest number in New Zealand, nor the common white-tailed deer, black-tailed deer and prairie deer, but the rare sika deer!
After arriving at the ranch, the sika deer herd kept a low profile. They just ate the pasture furtively, and when they were spotted by the calf, they panicked and tried to escape.
The reason why the dozen or so calves ran around was because they wanted to chase the sika deer.
The Bull Demon King called his cubs back, and the frightened deer slowly calmed down, and then returned to the pasture secretly, and began to eat happily.
The cattle in the pasture were not aggressive. After the deer found that their lives were not threatened, they stayed and gradually moved to the hinterland of the pasture, where the pasture was more lush.
Charlie yelled to eat, the strong man turned over and looked at Wang Bo eagerly with his ears shaking, his big tongue was licking his mouth, which meant that the meal was about to be served.
Wang Bo walked into the castle, where the sculptures were located in the inner courtyard, the cowboys were drinking beer and laughing while grilling meat, the atmosphere was hot, and Charlie, Kobe and his party got along very well with them.
The big cowboy Cousins gave Wang a bottle of beer and shouted, "Boss, cheers!"
Lao Wang laughed loudly: "There is wine tonight, drunk tonight, guys, cheers, blow it!"
