"Do you want me to give up a cowhide worth a few thousand dollars? Elena, you know I'm short of money right now. Zeng Gong spread his hands and said helplessly.

Their own Angus cattle is not only the value of beef, but also the cowhide is also very high-end, why those luxury companies compete to buy? It is not first-class quality, it is an ideal raw material for making top leather goods, if it is not for Zeng Gong himself who does not want to trouble, he will definitely make a lot of money if he directly opens a luxury company.

"How many thousand dollars?" said Elena's beautiful eyes with shock.

The Morgan family has some investments in some luxury companies, and through the annual report every year, Elena still knows a little bit about the price of luxury raw materials, and first-class cowhide can't reach this price.

"Think it's incredible?" Zeng Gong asked nonchalantly.

"I'll show you something tomorrow. Zeng Gong saw that Elena did not answer, and it was not strange at all, but said mysteriously. 、

······

Early in the morning, Zeng Gong took Elena to the helicopter, and with the buzzing roar, everything in Qinglian Ranch was fully visible.

The cattle and sheep grazing leisurely have long turned a blind eye to the helicopters that often appear overhead, without any vigilance, let alone any interest, the delicious grass, the sweet stream and the quiet life are all the cows, everything else is floating clouds.

Of course, Zeng Gong didn't take Elena to the helicopter to disturb their lives, but for another purpose.

"Once, is there a dam over there?" Elena pointed to the roaring machines in the distance.

"The dam is only part of it, artificial rivers, qanats, dams, spillway dams, will appear in Qinglian Ranch one after another, you see there, will be developed into terraces, there will be a sky lake in the future, there will be several artificial rivers, parallel or staggered shuttles, artificial islands and even artificial mountains will also be dotted. Zeng Gong took Elena to overlook Qinglian Ranch, so that she could better understand Qinglian Ranch.

"Wouldn't that be a big change in Qinglian Ranch?" Elena opened her beautiful eyes and looked at Zeng Gong in surprise.

Elena made up for it, but she still didn't dare to imagine what Qinglian Ranch would look like in the future, and the information she got from Zeng Gong's introduction just now was too huge.

"It's for sure, but it's definitely good for Qinglian Ranch. Zeng Gong muttered to himself.

"Benefits?Zeng, don't you think your renovation project is too huge, where did you get the funds?" Elena was suddenly anxious, she finally knew why Zeng Gong was crying all day long, he had to cry, this expense was too huge, it was simply sensational.

"There is no way, most of the two or three hundred million dollars invested have been paid salaries. Zeng Gong couldn't help but want to complain that American labor is too expensive.

"Two or three hundred million investments?" Elena looked at Zeng Gong hesitantly.

Water conservancy projects are simply gold-swallowing machines, and water conservancy projects that can cover a radius of more than 5,000 square kilometers with two or three billion US dollars sound like a fantasy, and Elena is not very optimistic.

"I will invest no more than $400 million, and the Montana state government and the federal government will each contribute $150 million, and then the water conservancy project will be fully managed by me, because I am a water conservancy hub in the upper and lower reaches of the Yellowstone River, the state government and the federal government will pay me a certain amount every year, as a management fee, which is free at the beginning, and then it will be charged, and the specific time is still being discussed." ”

"Actually, some things are not what you think. Zeng Gong shook his head, obviously not very satisfied with his explanation, after all, some complicated things can't be put on the table.

"That's not going to work. Elena was still skeptical.

"Take local materials, pile up soil into mountains, and practice the law of nature. Zeng Gong said confidently.

Stretching over 5,000 square kilometers, the materials used to build the water conservancy project are absolutely massive, if it is only transported from other places, it is simply a fantasy to build a water conservancy project for 700 million US dollars, not to mention that it does not meet his original intention, and local materials have obviously become a very important thing.

Isn't this how many majestic water conservancy projects were built in ancient times?

The rows of water conservancy projects made Elena look a little confused, and even more so that the two of them had a bird's-eye view of the air for a while, and landed near the alpaca.

"God, why so many. Elena looked at the boundless alpaca in amazement and couldn't help but cover her little mouth.

"Smuggling, you know that in fact, the economic development in South America is a bit deformed, although the independence is earlier, the economy is still a low-end market, the economy is controlled by big chaebols or powerful countries, all aspects are not sound, border management is lax and chaotic, smuggling is easy. Zeng Gong explained.

Formal channels can only flow out of a few hundred, a few hundred, and the countries that own alpacas prohibit the export of large quantities of alpacas, so how can they be brought back without smuggling.

It makes sense.

Elena shook her head amusedly, she was no stranger to smuggling, and even some people in the Morgan family specialized in smuggling business and some shady things, although the U.S. Customs was strict, this was only for ordinary people, and for people with magical powers, that was the way to go.

"Is there anything different about them?" Elena was a little curious, it seemed that these alpacas were not top-notch, and there were hundreds of thousands of such alpacas in South America.

"It's different, I can't tell it yet. Zeng Gong touched his nose and said embarrassedly.

Doesn't everything take time, and the Angus cow is a good example.

"Alpacas, cattle and sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, fertile fields, fruit forests, vegetables, fisheries, Zeng, Qinglian Ranch seem to be very complete, is it a little big now?"

"They sell very well, I'm taking the high-end route now, the market is very large, I'm afraid there are not enough, and the low-end market with fierce competition is different. Zeng Gong said confidently.

The confidence in Qinglian Ranch does not come from customers, not from experts, and not from those hard-working and simple cowboys, although they are an indispensable part of Qinglian Ranch, but from the characteristics of Qinglian Ranch itself, from the nurturing of space, and the water conservancy projects under construction.

"But?" said Elena, who was still reserved.

"Don't worry, Elena, there will be no problems with the ranch, and if I make any mistakes in my business, won't I have a shrewd and capable mistress like you? Zeng Gong said with a grinning grin as he hugged Elena's fragrant shoulder.
