020 Spend money, make money

Oregon is not a state with a strong agricultural and pastoral state, and there are not many livestock markets here, but Zhang Hao is not buying a large number of cattle this time, so it is not too much trouble. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, Zhang Hao's requirements are not low, because American beef is graded, and there is something special about it.

In addition to the improvement of breeding and feeding technology, the beef grading system has played a crucial role in the development of the beef cattle industry in the United States, which has a history of more than 100 years.

According to the standards of the United States Department of Agriculture, beef can be classified into premium, selective, standard, commercial and other grades, which is the consensus of beef cattle producers, buyers, slaughtering and dividing companies to supermarkets and retailers, and even consumers on the evaluation of beef quality, and is also the basis for the formation of price gaps.

Although there are some different standards when grading, it is certain that if the breed and foundation of the cattle are better, there is a higher probability of producing high-quality beef, and the price will naturally be higher.

An Angus cow may reach seven or eight hundred kilograms when it reaches adulthood, and generally speaking, it does not care about the meat yield when it is slaughtered. But to be sure, if the quality of the cattle is relatively high, it may be a few dollars per pound, and if it is ordinary beef, it may be cents.

Zhang Hao knew that Rome was not built in a day, and he also knew that if he wanted to raise good cattle, he needed cattle with a certain foundation, and he also needed high-quality pasture.

It takes time, and Zhang Hao will naturally not slow down the pace of pasture, but Zhang Hao is also working hard to cultivate and improve cattle breeds. He wants to raise the best cattle so that he can really make a lot of money.

Zhang Hao and Greg went to choose cattle, their requirements are relatively high, which naturally means that the price will definitely be higher; this is not a problem, as long as the price is right, Zhang Hao is willing to take out the checkbook.

Although Zhang Hao thinks that his eyesight is good, he feels that it is also necessary for Greg to go with him, because this can ensure that he will not be slaughtered, because this can give him an extra insurance.

Greg is also an experienced old cowboy, and this guy can still give some guarantees.

"Boss, it's not the best trading season. At this time, some cattle will be slaughtered, but not many will be sold. You should be clear that spring is the best season, and that time is also the heat period for bulls. ”

Zhang Hao nodded, he probably knew some of these things, but he definitely didn't know as much as Greg.

"It's a good idea to buy cows now, at least the cows we bought are probably pregnant. I hope it's the ones with the calves, and I want the cows to be bought that haven't been castrated. ”

Greg frowned, looked at Zhang Hao and asked, "Boss, I know you want to breed breeding cattle." But you should be aware that if those bulls are not castrated, they will have a more irritable temper, which is not conducive to management. Especially since we just bought some cattle, it will be a big test. ”

Zhang Hao also said his plan, "I know this, I know that cattle that are not castrated are more difficult to manage." But Charles, I also know that cattle that are not castrated will grow meat faster. The most important thing is that I want to breed more reliable breeding cattle, and I want to breed my own herd, so I have to go through this step. ”

Since the boss said so, Greg naturally knew that this seemed to be necessary, and it also represented the boss's lofty ambitions, proving that the boss was full of expectations for the ranch.

Although the ranch seems small now, some of the boss's choices seem to be making a fuss and asking for trouble, but Greg knows that he is only a part-time worker, and let the boss handle it.

During this period of working in the ranch, I can feel that the boss is a little lacking in experience in running a ranch, but the boss is not the kind of person who has no purpose. Even if it seems a little too optimistic, it can be regarded as a bit capable.

Choosing cattle is learned, although the livestock broker is working hard to sell, but Zhang Hao is not so easy to blindly listen and follow; he is very clear about the truth that Wang Po sells melons and boasts, so every cow needs to come and see for himself.

It can't be sick, it can't be that it has little potential, and of course it can't be shoddy; the price of relatively poor cattle will naturally not be high, and Zhang Hao doesn't want to spend a high price to buy some defective products.

Greg watched from the sidelines and felt that the boss seemed to be more capable than he thought.

I used to just watch the boss choose horses, and the three good quartes on the ranch were bought by the boss. But I didn't expect that the boss also knew a lot about cattle, and according to Greg's opinion, the boss was still very discerning in choosing cattle, except for being a little bottomless about the price, he was completely a very reliable rancher.

After buying 30 cows, Zhang Hao's heart was also trembling; he really needed to make more money, the bank loan was not enough, and after buying the cattle, Zhang Hao was basically empty in his pocket.

Although the price of a cow is a few thousand dollars, this is 30 cows!

It looks like I really need to find a few games to make some money, otherwise I won't be able to buy feed and living expenses in the future.

It's time to gather troops, Barney and Phil should have appeared at this time, and they should go out with Zhang Hao to make money.

Fortunately, this time there is not so much pressure, you can choose a few games in a targeted manner, you don't need to run around all day, you don't need to be tired like a dog.

The Whitney Tournament is a good tournament with a total prize pool of more than $1 millions, and the Arlington Millions, as the name suggests, you can see how high the prize money is, and you can't miss it. And what else is the Pacific Classic, the Traverse Championship, which is a Division I event with a total prize pool of millions of dollars.

Although the exposure and importance of such a tournament are not as good as those of the Triple Crown, they are also very influential.

What makes Zhang Hao excited is not only that he can bet on such a race, but also that if he really builds his own horse farm and finds an excellent horse, he may really be able to cultivate a super racing horse that can make money on the track.

The prize money of these Marseilles is in the million-level level, which is very exciting.

As for betting, it is necessary to take into account the strength of the rider and the state of the race, which is a bit uncertain, and because of the fear that betting too much will cause accidents, I dare not move too much at one time.

Carrying a backpack, he pinched Xixi's little face: "Xixi, Dad is going out to make money, you have to be obedient at home, you have to listen to your grandparents, and you have to be a good baby." ”

Xixi, who was holding a Barbie doll in his arms, nodded his little head and said, "Okay, goodbye, Dad." Grandma has no money, Dad has money. ”

Zhang Hao laughed, kissed Xixi and said, "Yes, grandma has no money, so dad has to make money." Grandma wants to buy new clothes, Xixi wants to buy toys, and they all need money. When Dad makes money, he calls Grandma and asks Grandma to take you to buy toys, and you can also help Grandma buy new clothes. ”

Xixi, who only had his mouth cannon kung fu left, immediately said: "Okay, Dad went to work to make money, but Grandma didn't go to work." ”

Yu Xiu smiled and hugged Xixi in her arms, she has been taking care of this little granddaughter for the past two years; although the little girl is very young and ignorant, sometimes those innocent words are really gratifying.

In the past, when the economic conditions of the family were not good, the little girl always said that her father made money to buy clothes for her grandmother, and asked her father to send money to her grandmother. Although the little girl may not understand what she means, although Yu Xiu also knows that her little granddaughter is just naΓ―ve words, she is really relieved to listen to it.

Zhang Hao began to find his fox friends and dog friends to prepare to make money, and everyone worked together to make a fortune, but good buddies also need their brothers to settle accounts when they do business together, and Zhang Hao naturally makes a lot of money.

For Phil and Barney, it is naturally a good opportunity to make money with Zhang Hao.

Barney, who has already started looking for a job, needs money, and Phil, who has been 'idle', needs money even more, and he doesn't necessarily have much better economic situation than Zhang Hao before.

Phil happily put his arm around Zhang Hao's shoulder and said, "Hao, I finally received your call." You know, I've been worried that you're going to give up this business. Don't, I want to improve my life with this business!"

"I want to get a job in Los Angeles, and I can't get financial support from my parents," Barney said. I want to rent a good apartment, I want to pick up girls and enjoy the fun of the City of Angels. Man, we need more money. ”

Zhang Hao sweated, looked at his good buddies and said speechlessly: "I don't want to give up this business, my ranch will definitely not have much income in the next year or two, I need horse racing to make money and improve my life." Guys, let's make money together, we'll all make it!"

Rejoice, in order to go and make money.

But before making money, the brothers went straight to the nightclub, drank alcohol, bragged, and it would be nice if they could soak in the girls.

Zhang Hao's buddies seem to be unreliable people, and as for Zhang Hao himself, don't think how disciplined this guy is, otherwise he won't get mixed up with Barney and Phil.

"Guys, I hope we can work together in the future, and I hope our friendship lasts forever. I've suffered, I've been poor, and all I had in that time I had two true friends!"

Although some of the big Zhang Hao has a big tongue, he is telling the truth.

Buddies who have suffered together, friends in trouble, now Zhang Hao may be in better condition, but he definitely doesn't think that he has to leave these buddies at this time, he has the ability and can also take his good buddies to live a better life together.

In addition to horse racing, we may be able to cooperate more in the future, as long as there is a chance!
