Chapter 414 404. Lemon Garden (55)

In this transaction, the most valuable are Simmental cattle. Sharp needs to take 500 heads. Ordinary Simmental cattle weigh 1,700 to 800 pounds a head. With the improvement of the Heart of the Ranch, they are bigger and the lightest The ones that weigh 2,000 pounds can be seen everywhere, and the ones that weigh 2,500 pounds are everywhere.

According to the agreement, one pound of live cattle is 20 yuan, 2,000 pounds is 40,000 yuan, and 500 Simmental cattle are worth more than 20 million New Zealand dollars!

The domineering president next to him couldn't help but sighed when he saw the purchase contract, and said dissatisfiedly: "Damn it, if I had known this, why did our family run banking and finance? We should run a ranch!"

"Your Simmental cattle are worth at most 4,000 yuan, and it is impossible to sell them for 40,000 yuan." Sharp joked, "Even if it is 4,000 yuan, it is God's blessing."

This is why he has always wanted to lower the price for Wang Bo. This price is too exaggerated. In the market, an entire head of ordinary Simmental cattle can be sold for 4,000 yuan.

Wang Bo thinks the price is very appropriate. How much is the wagyu beef? It is several times more expensive than his, especially Matsuzaka beef and Mijima beef. He has learned before that these top-quality wagyu beef can't even reach New Zealand, and are digested by Japan, Europe and North America.

Although he has never eaten wagyu beef, he never thinks that wagyu beef can be compared to the improved version of the heart of the ranch.

If it wasn't for his lack of understanding of the capacity of the high-end ingredients market, Lao Wang would still raise prices.

Now the heart of the ranch has been promoted to the second level, and the quality of the beef has been further improved, but he still maintains the original price when he sells it to Sharp.

In the next few days, Sharp's convoy arrived from Oakland and began to transport large quantities of cattle and sheep.

The New Zealand Road is basically completed, and it is easy for the transport vehicle to enter the ranch. Cut off from the No. 8 Highway to the New Zealand Road, and the terminal is located on the ranch.

Seven cowboys, including Peterson, got to work. They were responsible for driving the cattle and sheep, while the Mexican pretty boy was doing the registration.

Hani was temporarily requisitioned and came to help the ranch. He complained dissatisfiedly: "Please respect my profession, Mr. Mayor, I am not a bookkeeper, I am an inspector."

"If you don't help, I won't supply you with beef and mutton in the future. I don't have any meat. If you want to eat, you can buy it yourself."

Hani is an excellent accountant. His brain turned quickly and he made a decision immediately. In the next few days, when he registered the number and weight of cattle and sheep, he was more serious than the handsome Mexican boy.

On the weekend, Eva brought little Lolita to find Wang Bo and asked him, "I see that your ranch is very busy, do you need help?"

Wang Bo shook his head and said, "No, my dear, I just drove some cattle and sheep to the car, and then I received their money for the meat. In fact, I'm not even needed here."

Eva said: "If you have free time, let me tell you something, maybe you will be interested. That's right, our old school site in Aocheng has been sold. There is a lemon grove on the campus. If you want to Yes, you only need a transport vehicle, and you can pull them all back, free of charge."

"I thought it would be nice to have these lemon trees in your big vegetable garden, what do you think?"

Lemon is a very important condiment fruit in New Zealand. It cannot be eaten, but it is used many times in life.

For example, slices soaked in wine or water, which requires lemon; if you want to mix vegetable salad or fruit salad, you also need lemon juice, as for cooking fish and grilling, lemon is even more essential up.

Lemons are not expensive, and there are plenty of them in supermarkets, so Wang Bo never thought of growing lemons himself.

But Eva told him that there was a lemon tree, not one or two, and there was still a lot of empty land in the vegetable garden, so maybe it would be good to plant a lemon tree.

Lemons can be used as a seasoning, as are lemon trees, they repel insects and are protective for vegetable fields.

There are many farms and estates in New Zealand, where a large number of strawberries, blueberries, kiwis and other fruits are planted. Flowers and lemons are usually planted at the head and tail of these fruit fields.

Many pests here look for the smell and color to find food. They don't like the smell of lemon. When the smell is diffused in the vegetable field, the number of pests will decrease.

Thinking of this, Wang Bo said without hesitation: "Then what are we waiting for? I happen to have a lot of transport vehicles here, so I can just pick one up."

The old site of the special education school in Aocheng was sold, and a garment factory bought the land. It is said that it was going to tear it down and build a factory building, so the fruit trees inside became an obstacle.

Wang Bo asked Aturu to hire a large number of Maori, and dozens of people rushed to the school in a mighty manner to dig up all the lemon trees inside.

Eva called ahead of time to a manager of the garment factory, who opened the door for the trailer and said, "Thank you very much, we really don't need these fruit trees, it would be great if we could help you. "

Wang Bo brought some beef from the ranch as a gift. These lemon trees may not be worth much, but the garment factory can also be used for sale.

But they didn't do that, but gave it to them when Eva said that the town was useful. Such behavior is very admirable.

A small grove of one or two hundred lemon trees is evenly distributed in the yard on the north side of the school. These trees are not too tall, only a little over two meters, and it is obvious that they have not been planted for a few years.

At the end of spring and early summer, the lemon tree was already bearing fruit, with blue fruits the size of a thumb growing on it. The leaves and fruits exuded a faint sour fragrance, which was not as strong as Wang Bo imagined.

The Maori He Zuo dug up the lemon trees. Their roots are very thick, so it is inevitable to shovel them. Eva was worried that the roots would be too small to survive. Wang Bo was not worried. He has the heart of a vegetable garden. Transplanted in the past, survival is no problem.

After digging out, plastic bags must be wrapped quickly on the soil clods of the root system to protect the vitality of the root system.

A big Maori man looked at the slightly yellowed leaves of the fruit tree and said to Wang Bo: "Mayor, you'd better sell some iron-magnesium fertilizer. The soil here lacks iron and magnesium elements, and there may be problems after transplanting."

Then, he tore off a few leaves and looked at them carefully, pointing to some light yellow insects on them and said: "In addition, we need to buy special insecticides for citrus. Look, these are aphids, these are small borers, they will Harm the lemon fruit."

Wang Bo asked strangely: "Aren't lemons not easy to attract bugs?"

The big man smiled slightly. He obviously understood the knowledge and said: "The premise is that the lemon fruit grows, and there is no fruit or vegetable that will definitely not attract insects. Before the lemon fruit grows, the leaves are easy to attract aphids and the like. Wait until the fruit grows and releases it." Insect-repellent flavoring, so that you can protect yourself."

"And if the fruit attracts insects before it grows up, when the fruit grows, the flavor released will stimulate the insects, causing them to damage the fruit."
