Chapter 514 502. Fat Cat Demon King (35)

Wang Bo comforted the old man a few words, and the old man pulled him and began to chatter.

His grandfather bought this ranch during World War II. At that time, the world was chaotic and prices were low. His grandfather exchanged ten cows and 5,000 New Zealand dollars for 400 acres of land.

Later, with the hard work of his grandfather and his father, the ranch expanded and acquired surrounding land, finally owning the current area of ​​thousands of acres.

The ranch passed from his grandfather to his father to him, and then it was over. Both his two sons hate farming and animal husbandry. They like a life of feasting and feasting. They both studied in the United States and later stayed in the United States.

The old man got old and began to miss the life of family reunion. The reason why he was willing to sell the ranch during this bad market was because his wife just passed away this year.

The old man couldn't stand being alone in the place where his wife died, and finally decided to sell the ranch, even if it was cheap.

After the party ended, Wang Bo and Wensi signed the contract under Leonard's witness. The old man asked, "Which bank are you going to get the loan from?"

Wang Bo said: "Cash transaction."

Vince and Leonard: "..."

He bought this ranch quite well. When preparing for activities on Sunday, people kept talking to him about Wen Si's ranch. In fact, there are many tycoons and rich people among these people, but they are not willing to invest in ranches now.

In the words of one of the ranchers: "With that money, I might as well go to Oakland to buy an apartment, and sell it, and I can earn the money that I can earn by running the ranch for several years."

It is mainly due to weather and economic reasons that people are reluctant to invest in animal husbandry. The South Island has been a bit dry since last year, and it will be even drier this year. No one knows what will happen in the next year or the next.

And because of the global economic crisis, New Zealand's economy is very bad, and the prices of agricultural and animal husbandry products have not risen for a long time. Now many people's pastures are losing money, so they are unwilling to invest in buying land.

After the exchange, Wang Bo had some ideas. Taking advantage of the price cuts of farms and pastures in New Zealand, he couldn't do it himself and bought dozens of his pastures.

Although there are many large ranches in New Zealand, they are mainly small and medium-sized ranches. After all, the country is limited in size, and it is impossible to produce super ranches with an area of ​​tens of thousands of square kilometers like the United States and Australia.

In the South Island, many pastures are only tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of square meters. When converted, it is a few hectares or tens of hectares. If it is converted into square kilometers, it is even smaller. square kilometers.

As long as this kind of ranch is not in the nature of a land bank, the price is not high, especially now that the market for farms and ranches is in a downturn, it is even cheaper.

He plans to sell it to Asian immigrants in the future. Most Asian immigrants have a sense of land, and many immigrants are very rich. It should be a good business.

However, this kind of investment is of a professional nature. He has to go back and ask the domineering president for advice, and he can't do it alone.

Starting Sunday, the carnival has begun.

The so-called carnival is to give everyone a chance to relax, let everyone get to know each other, enhance their relationship, and increase their connections. Therefore, the activities are organized by themselves and are in the nature of small groups.

Fiordland National Park lies on the alpine fault between the Pacific plate and the junction of the Australian and Indian ocean plates. The unique landscape here is diverse, with fjords, rocky coasts, cliffs, alpine lakes and numerous waterfalls.

Therefore, there are many activities that can be carried out, such as mountaineering, rafting, fishing, camping, etc., which tend to be a relaxing vacation. This is the theme of this year's carnival. Last year it was gambling, and all went to the Oakland casino.

The light rain that lasted for a day ended in the early morning. Wang Bo chose to climb the mountain, and he was in a team with Motak, Leonard and others.

After breakfast in the morning, they prepared their luggage and started the mountain climbing trip.

This time we will stay on the mountain for a few days, so the group of men, women, and children all carried heavy luggage. Wang Bo carried two tents, stoves, pots and other tools, and the backpack weighed more than 50 kilograms.

Big Fatty and Er Fatty also carried small bags on their backs, as if they were strapped with explosives. Their backpacks contained small things such as sunscreen and mosquito repellent.

Wang Bo and Eva walked at the end of the line, holding hands and chatting softly while walking.

The forest is full of birdsong and insects, and wild flowers appear on the roadside from time to time. After the fat cat brother was quiet for a while, he climbed up the mountain with short legs.

This time their goal is the largest alpine lake in New Zealand, named Lake Manapouri, which means "sad lake" in Maori. This lake is surrounded by mountains and has a large area, nearly 200 square kilometers, about 29 kilometers, the deepest reaches 443 meters.

It is said that overlooking the lake from the top of the mountain is beautiful, and their goal is to climb to the point where the mountain overlooks Sad Lake and then stop and camp.

Wang Bo went with them, but because Eva had to go back to work tomorrow, they stopped at noon and camped to rest, and chose to go down the mountain at dawn to send Eva away.

There are 25 rare or endangered plants in the Fiordland National Park, 22 species of unique plants in the park, and 21 plants with extremely small distribution areas and concentrated in the fjords.

Among them, two-thirds of the area here is covered with primitive beech and podocarpus forests, which are the trees they saw most on the road, but after climbing for a while, Rimu tear pine began to appear.

In the dense forest of Rimu lacrimal pine, many animals and birds live here, including many kinds of squirrels.

Everyone would not disturb these animals, but the Fat Cat Brotherhood, the two of them were very naughty, and after spotting a squirrel, they immediately chased after it.

The squirrels didn't take them seriously when they saw Dapang and Erpang, who were short-legged and fat, with things tied to their bodies.

But immediately, they understood a truth, that is, they should not underestimate their opponents at any time.

It's true that manuls are not good at running on flat ground, but they are good at climbing mountains! Especially in the dense forest, running and jumping is omnipotent, forward and backward is as fast as the wind!

Er Pang climbed up a big pine tree. At first Wang Bo was worried that it would fall, but it turned out to be very agile. After climbing up, it chased a squirrel and jumped around, and finally ran back with a dying squirrel in its mouth. red squirrel.

Running up to Wang Bo, it opened its mouth and let the little squirrel out. The little squirrel tried hard to get up and try to run, but Erpang immediately went up and slapped it to the ground with a smug expression on his face.

Eva brought it up to make the little squirrel limping away, if it wasn't for food, there was no need to hurt these little animals.

Then Big Fatty also ran out with something in its mouth. Seeing the squirrel limping away, it rolled its eyeballs and let go of the prey in its mouth.
