Chapter 11: "The Bottom of the Pot" (I)

After coaxing this glass-hearted elf, Qin Xu asked, "Feifei, tell the master, how did you get the ranch points?"

Fei Fei's eyes were still red, she glanced at Qin Xu, and said with some residual anger: "Master, every ten dollars you earn is equal to one point, and real estate such as houses and stocks are not counted!"

Qin Xu was discouraged after calculating it, this would take more than 100 million dollars to upgrade all the land.

This is going to the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Month, and it is really not expensive, and after the land is upgraded, it will be a treasure land.

After all, after improving the forage seeds, the forage genes will definitely be better, but in the same way, the nutrients needed are more, so it is useless to just grow the forage genes!

Putting these aside and continuing to look at forage seed improvement: the common forage seed is genetically grouped to achieve the quality of perfect forage!

Animal Genetic Improvement: Extracting, adding or strengthening a gene to promote the evolution or mutation of individual animals!

New Cattle Breeding: Combine ancient genes with existing genes to produce new cattle breeds, and ancient genes need to be redeemed with points!

Seeing this, Qin Xu couldn't wait to experiment with new cattle breeds immediately, but seeing the requirement that the pasture land needs to be upgraded by 80% in the back,

I can't wait to go up and take two bites! I continued to see the ranch buildings.

There are cattle pens, sheep pens, stables, racetracks, shooting ranges, warehouses, barns, dairy factories, wineries, and other buildings.

Buildings ranging from 1,000 points to 1,000,000 points are there!

Looking at it, I turned into the fishing ground, and the fishing ground is basically similar to the pasture.

Then there is the winery, which now has only one function for viticulture.

After reading this, Qin Xu found that there were more deputy positions. When I opened it, it was divided into several subcategories.

There is a language system, which includes the languages of English, French, German, West and South Korea, and the cooking skills are also divided into a small category.

Chinese and Western food, various cuisines, fisherman skills, fishing, diving, ranch master and passive skills, animal affinity,

There are even fighting skills, free fighting, military physical boxing, Jeet Kune Do, and Qin Xu is dazzled by various skills.

But when Qin Xu couldn't wait to learn Jeet Kune Do and learn from Bruce Lee to be handsome,

Fei Fei's voice like a magic voice sounded again, "Master, because your physique is not up to the requirements, you can't learn Jeet Kune Do for the time being, please learn free fighting first!"

Qin Xu looked at the 10,000 yuan study fee behind free fighting, gritted his teeth, and learned, for the safety of his life. There is no need to save on this.

And that English, isn't it 10,000 points, brother is not bad for this point!

After enduring the feeling of swelling and pain in his head for a while, Qin Xu suddenly felt that some of the English that he seemed to understand before was now fully understood, which was a magical feeling.

Qin Xu stood up and walked to the bluestone steps. I slowly practiced according to the free fighting routine in my mind, and I was a little rusty at first.

The more I practice, the better I get, and I'm a little addicted. If it's not that the physical strength is a little hard to keep up, so much the better!

Qin Xu turned off the system and practiced free fighting, only to suddenly remember what his mother told him yesterday,

When you move to a new house, you have to invite someone to eat, which is called "burning pot bottom" in your hometown, and you have to invite relatives, friends and neighbors to have a big meal at home.

Qin Xu thought about it, his friends in the United States. Except for the two student girls yesterday, it seems that only one David is quite familiar!

After thinking about it, David had just returned to New York, and the two school girls were going to school today, so he picked up the phone and called John, "Hi, boss, what's the matter?" John's voice came from the other end of the phone,

"That's right, I want to invite the cowboys of the ranch and the owners of the surrounding ranches to gather in my villa at night, do you think you need to prepare something?" Qin Xu asked like John

"Boss, you're going to buy some ingredients and wine, and I'll inform the other ranchers.

In this way, the cattle in the pasture are not yet of slaughter age, I will ask Little John to take you to Revere, you go buy some meat, vegetables, fruits and beer" John thought for a while Qin Xu said!

Qin Xu felt that this arrangement was good, but he still asked, "How to prepare the dishes that night?"

"Boss, we are all roasting and eating by ourselves, you just need to prepare the ingredients and marinate them" Qin Xu was relieved when he heard it,

The Yankees are still very easy to make, and it saves me a lot of dishes!

Qin Xu walked around the storeroom, and saw that there was a lot of charcoal in the oven, so he went to the door and waited for Little John,

After a while, Little John drove the pickup truck and appeared in front of Qin Xu, and after Qin Xu got into the car, Little John shouted "boss" a little shyly and stopped talking.

It can be seen that Little John is an introvert, Qin Xu asked along the way, Little John replied, Qin Xu felt so tired of chatting!

Fortunately, it is not very far from Revere, and after a while, I will arrive at Revere City, which is a city, and the population is a little more than 20,000, which is not as large as the population of a town in China!

Qin Xu and the others came directly to the largest supermarket in Revere City, and after Qin Xu entered, he came directly to the meat area.

When he arrived at the meat area, Qin Xu was dumbfounded, the expensive beef was fifty or sixty dollars a pound, and the cheap beef was four or five dollars a pound, Qin Xu said that he couldn't understand it!

Called over and asked Little John to figure out the beef of the United States, the beef of the American imperialists,

Divided into two grading criteria, namely meat quality and age, according to marbling, they classify beef into eight grades: Premium, Premium, Preferred, Standard, Commercial, Available, Chopped and Canned.

According to the different slaughtering time, it is divided into five levels of ABCDE.

Grade A refers to cattle aged 9 months to 30 months, grade B is cattle from 30 months to 42 months, grade C is cattle from 42 months to 72 months, grade D is cattle from 72 months to 96 months, and grade E is over 96 months.

Basically, the good beef you see in the supermarket is all A-grade.

The best beef available in the supermarket is only the preferred one, but the preferred price is also the most expensive.

One pound (nine taels) of premium beef can be sold for almost fifty dollars, which is indeed too expensive. But preferably, the prices of the three types of beef are much cheaper, such as standard, commercial and usable.

Standard beef, the price of a pound is less than eight US dollars, the commercial one is about five US dollars, the available three US knives, chopped and canned beef can not be used directly, chopped can also be sold for a meat filling or something, about a kilogram of US dollars.

In fact, the canned beef that was finally made was basically not eaten by the civilians of the US imperialists, except for those specially supplied to the army.

What John made for Qin Xu that day was standard-level beef, and Qin Xu, who was still eating, called it delicious.

In China, this level of beef is basically specially supplied to those steaks.

The beef you can buy in the supermarket, the most tender cucumber strips, is basically commercial-grade here in Meidi.

Worse ones, such as upper brain, or brisket, etc., are basically usable levels.

The cost of living here in Boston is quite high, but the usable level of beef, converted into soft sister coins, is less than 20 yuan a catty, but in China, it is sold for more than 40 yuan.

However, if you buy standard-grade beef for more than 40 or 50 yuan in China, in a steak restaurant in China, it will sell for 2 or 300.

This is the gap, two or three hundred yuan of beef, as long as it is cooked, there is no strange taste, it is naturally very delicious, and the most important thing is that this meat is not watered, and the meat quality is quite good.

Little John introduced Qin Xu and walked forward with Qin Xu, but Qin Xu's eyes straightened again after walking for a while,

What did he see? Tomatoes cost $2.99, bell peppers cost ninety-nine cents a piece, and a lettuce sells for more than beef.

Little John shrugged helplessly, which is why the ranchers would rather provide free meat to the cowboys than vegetables!

In the United States, corn, wheat, beef, mutton, fish, and other daily necessities are basically priced by the United States.

The situation varies from place to place, and the price fluctuates slightly, but it is only a slight fluctuation.

In the United States, beef is like domestic grain, and ranchers sell cattle directly to animal husbandry associations, so they don't have to look for a home everywhere like people in China.

On the contrary, it is similar to the grain in the country, and when the harvest comes, people from the country will come down to harvest it, of course, if it is not sold to these people, it can also be sold to people in some private enterprises.

However, the price offered by people in private companies will not be much higher than that of the state, and sometimes it is not guaranteed.

So basically, these fish farmers and herders will sell these production materials to the state, and the state will collect them and grade them, and then sell them according to unified standards, so that the price will not be too high.

On the contrary, vegetables that cannot be transported over long distances are very expensive in the United States, and a good lettuce is even more expensive than standard grade beef. Qin Xu shook his head, he really couldn't understand it!

Although he couldn't understand it, Qin Xu was not stingy, and directly took two hundred pounds of premium beef, chicken wings, chicken legs and some other meats, and Qin Xu didn't look at the price of vegetables and fruits, and stuffed them directly into the shopping cart.

Although he looked at Qin Xu with an indifferent look, in fact, Qin Xu's heart was dripping blood, the ranch was so big, he would definitely plant vegetables and fruits in the future,

I'm eating and throwing it away, I can't let these vampires put their dollars in their pockets for nothing!

After picking out the ingredients, Qin Xu and the others came to the wine area, Qin Xu thought that his wine cabinet was still empty, so it would be even more unkind.

I took more than 20 kinds of liquor, as well as various wines, and finally I took five barrels of beer before I was satisfied.

When I went to check out, the manager came out, and politely said that next time there would be such a thing, a phone call could be sent directly to the door,

Qin Xu, who listened to it, wanted to spit on his face, and there was such a thing, you think of beauty, labor and management will eat what they grow on their own pastures in the future,

Such a big rancher came out to buy meat and vegetables, and was seen not laughing to death!
