Chapter 55: Selling Feeder Cattle (Part II)
Looking up at the wooden wall clock on the wall, the hour hand was pointing to 11 o'clock, and it seemed that they had no time to go back.
"Let's eat here at noon, I'm going to prepare lunch, it may be a little shabby, sorry. ”
"Excuse me, just do what you want, thank you so much, ma'am. The old merchant stood up and said politely.
The hostess smiled and turned to the kitchen, where Joanna also came downstairs to help after changing the water in the pool.
I was in a hurry, so I could only make some simple steaks, and the piece of beef I got back just now weighed more than ten kilograms, which was enough for them to eat.
Money is the best driving force, and within two hours of slaughtering in the morning, a buyer rushed over, or the kind that used to fly.
Han Xuan stood by the window, looking at the small bird helicopter on the grass, the side pattern was very famous, and he happened to know it.
I felt that my father was probably going to make a lot of money this time, but the truth was not what he thought.
In the living room, the old businessman was indifferent, and he was idle to tease the brown bear around him.
Justin had a deflated expression, gritted his teeth and scolded the judges, picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee, staring at the other side.
I can't tell how old he is, Europeans and Americans can't tell the difference when they grow to sixteen, with a shazzy beard on his lips, and he should be about 20 years old.
The young buyer was very fair-skinned, wearing a light-colored suit, the weather was too cold, and a dark gray turtleneck sweater was added to it, which should have been a very elegant outfit, but he wore it a little out of shape.
The reason is simple, because this young man is a fat man, a very fat fat man, at least a hundred kilograms upward, which is simply a miniature version of Pooh.
Through the cracks in the buttons, you can still see the furrow on his belly, he alone occupies half of the sofa, and his leather shoes beat the ground rhythmically, and there is a crisp sound.
The woman who looked like a secretary stood behind him, her eyes kept scanning the surroundings, and she was very capable in professional women's clothes, and she hadn't said a word since she entered the door.
The young fat man looked at the brown bear, looking very interested, and turned his head to look at Han Xuan from time to time, his small eyes narrowed into strips, and he was struggling to exist on his face, almost squeezed by the flesh and couldn't see it.
"I heard that you have a batch of cattle to sell, and I want to buy them all, what do you think?"
After two or three minutes of silence, the unusually young buyer spoke, with a western accent, like he came from Oregon or California.
"That's right. ”
Justin interjected: "But do you want to tell your parents first, this batch of cattle is too large, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy it." ”
On the way, Albert told him that of the ten thousand head of cattle had been ordered to be sold to him in the morning, and that only seven thousand were left, and that one thousand were left for his own use.
The Broken-B ranch is at full capacity, and if you want to quickly breed tens of thousands of cows in two years, you can buy almost all of these cows.
The bull only needs a tenth, so if you have one more person, the cow is not enough.
"My parents are too busy with work, after all, there is a big food group to manage, I'm afraid I don't have time to ask about this kind of thing, I'm Orlando, Orlando Fraser. ”
Han Xuan was even more certain when he heard this name, came to him, and said, "Denzel Fraser?"
"How do you know my dad. The young man asked in surprise, he thought the boy's color was very interesting, and subconsciously looked at it a few times, and now he was even more curious.
Hearing their conversation, Albert was thoughtful, although he had only been in this business for a few years, but the five major American butchers had heard of it.
Justin's mouth was even wider, he had worked there for a few years after graduating, and he knew better than the old businessman how large Sentai Foods was.
Founded in 1935, Sentai Foods has grown into one of the world's largest producers and suppliers of chicken, beef and pork in just a few decades, with revenues of billions of dollars. At present, Fortune magazine does not include American companies, otherwise it would definitely have its name in the world's top 500.
And listening to what this fat man means, Tyson Food is still his family? Justin put away his contempt and sat up slightly straight.
"I've heard from my grandfather about this company, and he has business dealings with you. Han Xuan found that this young man named Orlando was under Justin's gaze, and the stinky fart expression on his face became thicker and thicker, and he couldn't help but pout.
"Is it Chinese? The ranch of such a large ranch is not cheap, and it has a connection with Sentai, I guess it's SOS, the one that opens a convenience store. Orlando affirmed, pointing at the boy.
Father Han next to him was unhappy, and coughed lightly: "You're right, but this ranch has nothing to do with my father." ”
"I'm also working away from home now, and my family has to say that I can't achieve anything, so I have to give them something to see!"
This sentence poked Orlando's sad past, with a sad and angry expression on his face when he spoke, and the secretary behind him clearly agreed, looked down at the fat man, and blocked his face with a briefcase, as if he was snickering.
"So you don't have a company now? You don't have anything to do with Sentai? So how do you buy cattle? Justin kept an eye on him and heard the implications.
The fat man said proudly: "Buy it and sell it to my dad, how about this idea, not bad!"
The boy suddenly didn't know what to say, and was shocked by his powerful thinking, looked at his father, and thought, "This is the cheat father."
He sat down next to Orlando, turned his head and asked, "Then why are you here? I remember Sentai was in Arkansas." ”
"My uncle, who is the Minister of Agriculture in Montana, told him some time ago that there was good beef in several nearby states and would tell me. ”
"Well, how much did you buy, Orlando. ”
"I've been to a few ranches before, and they don't seem to agree with my approach, how about it, do you want to cooperate? I'm very optimistic about your ranch. ”
"How?"
"Give the goods first and then give the money, my dad stopped my credit card. ”
"Hey, you can't do that, I'll come first!" Austin said hurriedly.
"Then it just depends on the price, right, Stephanie, it's the right business. The fat man turned back to the back of the sand and stretched out his head to ask the housekeeper.
Several people in the room were stunned, and Stephanie nodded seriously when the fat man turned around and smiled apologetically at them.
"I've checked the information, and the price of beef in the United States has been around $2 recently, and I can get $2.2. After speaking, Orlando looked through the documents on the coffee table, confirmed that it was found twice and found that it was correct, and looked at Father Han seriously.
Justin was speechless and pinched his temples, a good deal was now made a little big by this troublemaker: "That's ordinary grade 2 beef on the market!"
"So it's level 1 here?"
The fat man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly picked up the papers, quickly looking for something, and after a while, he turned his head and shouted, "Oh God! My dad said that first-class meat is the most profitable! Stephanie, help me see where it is, it's too messy!"
Father Han had quit smoking for many years, and at this time he suddenly had the idea of smoking a cigarette to suppress his shock, and lay on the backrest: "Albert, Justin, let's continue." ”
"Hey, hey!"
"Last year, you came to buy, the meat on a Angus cow averaged $4.1 per pound, and this year the price of beef has increased by 5%, and the proportion of grade 1 meat is a lot more, how about $4.4?"
Father Han ignored Orlando and continued: "The quality of Limousin cattle is high, and the price in the market is also high, even if it is 4.6. ”
Albert already had the price in his heart, and it was not much different from Han's father's offer, so he thought about it and nodded in agreement: "I can buy more than 3,000 heads now, and if I pay you 40% of the money, I will pay you the rest within a month." ”
"Wait a minute!"
"Mr. Justin, what about you?"
"I want all the cattle here, Angus and Limousin, under the age of 5, the healthy ones, pay 60% upfront, and pay the rest in two weeks. ”
"Barton, how many cows do we have now that we can breed. ”
"There are about 5,000 of them, and I have to check them out. Old Barton replied quickly.
Father Han nodded, and looked at Justin again: "What about the price?"
"20% more than the market price, $2,100 a head for Angus cattle and $2,700 for a Limousin cow. After Austin finished speaking, he looked at Han Qianshan uneasily, and Albert told him to be sincere, which was already his greatest sincerity.
The Moore brothers only gave him 15 percent more, and this five percent was added by himself after seeing the quality of the beef.
After listening to the price, the father and son nodded at the same time, and Albert's old face bloomed.
Han Qianshan said, "Congratulations, you got them!"
"Hey, hey, there's anyone here. ”
Several people have a tacit agreement to ignore Orlando and go to the wine rack to get champagne to celebrate.
The fat man saw that there was a boy next to him, and turned his head to look at Han Xuan: "Child, is this bear for sale?"
