Text Chapter 176 Su Li Alpaca
"Boss, the number of Suli alpacas we have now has reached 152, including 33 vicunas, and the oldest alpaca is only 10 years old. There are about 18 alpacas in total." Marne introduced the flock of sheep he was in charge of.
"That's just a little bit! How many are pregnant now?" Zhou Jiexi was a little disappointed when he heard that, but it was reasonable. Atwood also said that there were only more than one hundred, but now there are more than one hundred and fifty, which is not bad.
"Boss, there are already eighty-five pregnant sheep in the flock, and a few of them will give birth soon. After a while, the other Suli sheep will probably be finished giving birth."
"Isn't that going to add dozens of sheep? This is really great!" Zhou Jiexi heard that there are still dozens of pregnant sheep, as long as they are all born, the number of sheep will almost increase again.
"Yes boss, as long as we continue to breed, I believe it will form a scale. After all, the number of Suli alpacas in the world is very small. And our farm can reproduce without death. This is definitely the best gift given by God. good gift!
"Now it's one hundred and fifty-two, plus the next eighty, the farm will have about two hundred and thirty-two. According to Atwood, a suri wool costs about five hundred dollars per kilogram. A sheep can produce about ten to twenty kilograms a year. Zhou Jiexi pinched his fingers and calculated.
This Suli alpaca is one of the living gold! Its hair can continue to grow, and it can grow again after cutting. This is an endless gold mine, and what I hate is that this gold mine is too small. Apparently Zhou Jiexi felt very helpless about the number of Su Li's alpacas.
"If you do the calculations like this, one kilogram of wool worth 500 dollars multiplied by ten kilograms, and then multiplied by the number of alpacas, is about 750,000 dollars, and the annual output value of more than 150 animals. Let me go, this is also a A stable income!" Zhou Jiexi did the calculations himself, and immediately felt the approximate profit brought by this business.
And this is still calculated on the basis of the minimum value, and if the calculation is based on the highest value, at least one million can be obtained a year! To Zhou Jiexi, this might not be a lot of money, but it was still when there were not many alpacas. If there are more alpacas in the future, it will be a long-term and stable business.
Atwood also said that this Suli wool is a material that is in short supply in the clothing industry. As long as Zhou Jiexi increases the quantity, basically there will be no buyers to buy it. Seeing these alpacas, Jessie Zhou's heart is moved. As long as these animals are raised well, there will be a lot of money!
"Does the Alpaca consume a lot of food in a year?"
"Boss, these animals are easy to feed. Compared with other sheep and cattle, their food is really cost-effective. Other farms dare not say, but our farm never needs to be careful when it comes to feed!" Marne is slightly proud to be here.
"Hehe, yes, that's good!" Zhou Jiexi remembered that his farm had always been self-sufficient, and he was not allowed to go outside to buy feed. The farm alone is enough for these things to eat. Sure enough, a larger land is also beneficial!
"It eats less than other animals, and the value created is relatively high. It's a good deal! But it would be better if I could cut more fur a year, so the profit will be higher." Zhou Jie Xi was thinking wildly in his head. "Why don't you put it in the space? You seem to write like this in novels! Any animal will mutate if it goes in, or I'll make two and try."
Thinking of Zhou Jiexi, he couldn't help but feel a little moved. This is a new breed that will be bred. Then you can make a lot of money. "However, regardless of whether it can be bred or not, it is bred for myself. Then how do I explain to others, where did this mutated sheep come from? It would be a bit ridiculous to say that it was picked up!"
Zhou Jiexi rubbed his head. Although his idea is good, it is not realistic at all. It is not worth taking such a risk for the money. No matter how many alpacas are bred to make money, it is not as rich as Zhou Jiexi's current net worth!
Zhou Jiexi's thoughts are a bit stuck in a corner now, and he can't get out of it no matter how much he thinks, his head is a little swollen thinking about it. Zhou Jiexi simply didn't want to think about it, since he couldn't understand this matter, let's let it go. Maybe when it will come, maybe I will think of him all at once!
"Uncle, what are these! They look so cute!" Tiantian asked while grabbing Zhou Jiexi, her big eyes kept looking at the alpaca.
"This is an alpaca, it's a combination of a camel and a sheep, right?" Zhou Jiexi didn't know how to explain this thing, so he just made it up, but if it can be called an alpaca, it must be the same as the two something about it.
"Oh, it sounds very powerful!" Tiantian seemed to understand, nodded in style, and then said with a sigh.
"..." Zhou Jiexi was a little speechless about this second sister's daughter, why does it feel a bit cheating? Shaking his head helplessly, Zhou Jiexi said to Ma En, "Ma En, how many other alpacas are there in our farm?"
Ma En pondered for a moment, obviously thinking about something. "Boss, I don't know too well, but there seems to be more than a thousand." After speaking, he looked at Zhou Jiexi with a little anxiety, obviously worried. After all, the boss asked about the farm, but you couldn't answer it.
Zhou Jiexi smiled indifferently and didn't say anything. After all, he was not in charge of management, and he was not responsible for those ordinary alpacas. It was normal not to know the details. "Well, I see, hehe, thank you Ma En!"
"You're welcome boss, I'm glad I can help you!" Ma En said!
"Uncle, can I touch them?" Tiantian suddenly whispered to Zhou Jiexi, with a timid expression on her face, as if she was afraid that Zhou Jiexi would not agree.
"This," Zhou Jiexi looked at the little girl, and without answering her words, he pondered for a while, and then said to her: "For this, uncle can only give you the answer after asking this uncle."
"Well, uncle, hurry up and ask!" Xiao Tiantian said anxiously.
Zhou Jiexi told Ma En about this matter, Ma En smiled, and told Zhou Jiexi that it was okay. Then he smiled at Tian Tian, and rode into the alpaca herd, and brought out an alpaca with the best temper, and led it out for him.
The temper of the alpaca is not irritable, and it is also a gentle species. The attack method is to spit, which can be said to be weak. But just like that, it still has the heart of a brave man. Although this seems a bit silly, when something happens, he spits and rushes upwards.
