When Zeng Cheng was busy settling Yun Lao, the work of the major branches of Xianyuan Group was on the right track. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info which naturally includes Xianyuan Ranch.

A week after the rainy season, that is, on February 26, Li Weimiao, the general manager of the ranch, began to order the employees to plough the remaining 70,000 acres of land in the entire ranch, ready to plant the selected pasture.

In the past winter, the 10,000 acres of pasture grass that had been planted in Ranch No. 1 were not frozen by the heavy snow, but they recuperated under the thick snow, accumulated strength, and rejuvenated after the beginning of spring. Today, these lush alfalfa grasses have grown to their knees, with thick rhizomes and plump foliage, better than any grass Li Weimiao has ever seen.

According to Li Weimiao's experience, the 10,000 acres of forage grass in the first phase of the Xianyuan Ranch project can be put into normal use, and every 2 acres of grassland should be able to carry 1 cow. In other words, just 10,000 acres of pasture on this ranch can raise 5,000 cows. And if the entire 80,000 acres of pasture are used to raise dairy cows, it will be enough to raise 40,000 dairy cows.

Of course, this is also impossible. In addition to raising dairy cows, beef cattle and sheep will also be raised in the pasture, so that with the pigs, chickens, ducks, and fish that are already raised, the entire Xianyuan Group can provide relatively complete meat.

In fact, in Zeng Cheng's plan, the ranch is used for dairy farming, which is the No. 1 ranch and the No. 2 ranch under construction, with a total of about 18,000 acres of land. The remaining ten pastures, totaling more than 60,000 acres, will be used to raise beef cattle, sheep and other animals.

The vigorous growth of pasture grass naturally made Li Weimiao let go of the heart that had been hanging, and took advantage of the warm and snowy season in spring to start the second phase of the ranch project and speed up the construction of the ranch.

As an expert in ranch management, Li Weimiao naturally knows the importance of high-quality pasture grass to pastures, and now Xianyuan Ranch has the foundation for great strides in development.

The first and second phases of the project have a total of 80,000 acres of pasture, which can only be regarded as small and medium-sized pastures for countries with developed animal husbandry in Europe and the United States, but in the Yudu area, this is an out-and-out large-scale pasture.

Thinking that he could be in charge of such a large ranch, Li Weimiao would wake up laughing even if he slept.

………………

Just when the lawn mower and rotary cultivator were rumbling in Xianyuan Ranch, Li Weimiao himself had been at the junction of Beijing and Northern Hebei for 10 days, and he basically spent his time in the breeding cattle base under the Animal Husbandry Research Institute of China Agricultural University and the National Animal Husbandry Research Institute, to buy the best quality dairy cows and beef cattle breeds for Xianyuan Ranch.

In Yudu and Xichuan, there are actually many breeding cattle breeding centers for dairy cows and beef cattle, but the scale of these breeding centers is too small to meet the requirements of Xianyuan Ranch. After all, in the plan, the pasture area of Xianyuan Ranch for raising dairy cows and beef cattle has reached 18,000 mu and 30,000 mu respectively, and the number of dairy cows and beef cattle that can accommodate it has reached 9,000 and 30,000 respectively.

In order to choose breeding cattle for the pasture, Li Weimiao flew to the capital after the New Year.

Several provinces in the northern region are the most developed areas of animal husbandry in China, and the central location of the capital is not only the largest livestock trading market in the country, but also the main breeding center for cattle. Relying on universities and scientific research institutions such as China Agricultural University, China Forestry University, and Animal Husbandry Research Institute, Tongzhou, which is at the junction of Beijing and Hebei Province, has become the most important breeding base in China, and there are various breeding centers of all sizes. Every year, about half of the country's high-quality breeding cattle flow from here to all parts of the country.

With a few assistants, Li Weimiao spent a lot of energy, and finally selected 2,000 Chinese Holstein cows and 5,000 Angus calves. If it weren't for the fact that most of Li Weimiao's teachers and classmates held important positions in these two units, even if Xianyuan Ranch had money, it would not have been possible to buy so many high-quality cattle breeds so easily.

After the beginning of spring, it is the best period for major pastures and farms to buy a large amount of fresh blood, and Xianyuan Ranch is equivalent to a tiger's mouth, and its difficulty is no less than a war.

Most of the cows are pregnant or about to enter the maturity stage, and only about 100 mature bulls will be used as breeding cows; The 5,000 Angus calves are also dominated by cows, and the proportion of bulls is only about 4 percent, that is, about 200 heads.

The average price of 2,000 cows is 15,000 yuan, and the price of purebred Angus calves is not cheap, reaching 25,000 yuan, which is equivalent to two ordinary adult Luxi cattle, and the total price of 7,000 cows has reached 155 million.

In the eyes of many people, agriculture and animal husbandry is a low-cost, labor-intensive industry, but in fact, in large-scale production, high investment, capital-intensive has become the characteristics of agriculture and animal husbandry.

In recent years, the high-grade beef and high-grade milk on the market were expensive, but behind their low operating and production costs, it was a high first investment.

However, this is all trivial for Zeng Cheng today. Now his cash is a little unused, not to mention anything else, just the money he made in the stock market last year is enough for him to throw money everywhere, not to mention that every month, several companies under his umbrella will bring him hundreds of millions of income.

More than 150 million funds, in the Tongzhou Animal Husbandry Trading Market, which has a huge trading volume, is like a stone thrown into the sea, and in a blink of an eye, only ripples are left that gradually disappear.

And it is also not a simple matter to transport these 7,000 breeding cattle back to Stone City. However, in this age of money, money can make the devil grind, let alone ask the transportation company to transport these breeding cattle back to Chongqing. After Li Weimiao contacted several large transportation groups, he finally negotiated the matter. However, the price paid is also huge, the transportation cost is as high as 7 million yuan, which is equivalent to each cow, and the cost of transporting it from the capital to Qinglong Village is as high as 1,000 yuan!

Whether it is the cost of buying breeding cattle or the transportation cost, it is undoubtedly astronomical, so Zeng Cheng needs to go to the capital before he can sign and pay. Therefore, when Li Weimiao was negotiating the contract with the other party, he called Zeng Cheng. After receiving Li Weimiao's call, Zeng Cheng had no choice but to leave Qinglong Village temporarily and fly to the capital to deal with this matter.

This time happened to be February 29th, and it was also the day before Fan Xueqing started school. Zeng Cheng just sent her back to school, and then went to the capital to deal with the business.

………………

Zeng Cheng, who woke up from his sleep, felt a faint pain in his head, he propped himself up and looked around, he was now in the hotel room, and there were no bloody scenes in his sleep.

Zeng Cheng shook his head, the young man's anger was fierce, and he had never vented his anger, so that now he has to have some beautiful dreams full of beautiful scenes every night.

Zeng Cheng flew from Feicheng to Beijing yesterday afternoon, and the purpose was naturally to sign a contract with the three units for the purchase and transportation of breeding cattle.

Since he came to the capital, Zeng Cheng felt that since he came to the capital, he was a little reluctant not to get together with his old classmates, so he called Li Yushi.

Li Yushi did come, but she brought a colleague with her, obviously this is a hint intentionally or unintentionally, of course Zeng Cheng understands.

Her colleague looked a little crazy, but he drank so fiercely that he didn't change his face and his heart didn't beat when he went down the two bottles of Blue Fang whiskey, it was terrifying, even Zeng Cheng was a little stunned, and he didn't know where Li Yushi invited such a killer person, not to mention that he really didn't want to take advantage of her again.

Fortunately, although the girl was crazy, she did not interfere with the reminiscence between Zeng Cheng and Li Yushi, and enjoyed it on the sidelines.

With his old classmates, and then drinking, even Zeng Cheng felt that he was much bolder, his skin was a lot thicker, and he usually opened his mouth without any scruples when he was still a little shy.

Although Li Yushi covered it up well, Zeng Cheng was still very careful to notice a trace of depression between her eyebrows, and it was not until she was about to leave the bar that Zeng Cheng found an opportunity to carefully ask if there was something wrong between him and his male ticket.

Zeng Cheng didn't expect that his question would be heard by the crazy girl with the sharp ears, and glared at him viciously, as if he was the culprit, which made Zeng Cheng inexplicable, could it be that Li Yushi had an awkward quarrel with her male ticket or because of herself?

But where does this start? It seems that he has only met her male ticket at the door of Xianyuan Group, and he went his separate ways without even saying a word, so he can't say any grievances and hatreds, right? Didn't he learn about his "feat" six years ago, that's why it's like this? It's just that it's too stingy, and it's too exaggerated to say that something that has already gone with the wind can cause such a storm.

Li Yushi didn't say what happened between her and her male ticket in the end. In fact, even Li Yushi himself didn't know why Feng Yuanxi was so persistent in asking about the things between himself and Zeng Cheng, especially asking Zeng Cheng about his current situation over and over again.

Li Yushi didn't know Zeng Cheng's current situation, but I heard that he was supposed to go to work in a research institute in Xichuan after graduating from college, but he didn't make it, but went home to farm, no one knew what the specific situation was, but he felt that he was very depressed and in a very bad situation, and no one asked to understand, which was too unkind, and Zeng Cheng was not closely connected with his high school classmates, and no one knew his true situation.

But Feng Yuanxi always seemed to feel that he had deceived him, and Li Yushi was annoyed when he didn't listen to his explanation, but he didn't expect this collapse, Feng Yuanxi turned out to be a little unrelenting, and never came to Li Yushi again, which made Li Yushi heartbroken, but he didn't take the initiative to contact the other party, and the relationship between the two seemed to be so stiff.

Zeng Cheng naturally didn't know the details of this, he just felt that Li Yushi didn't seem to be in a good mood, Zeng Cheng was also interested, and ended early, but he was poured two bottles of whiskey by the crazy girl, which also made Zeng Cheng a little unbearable, and he still had a headache after sleeping until dawn this night.

Zeng Cheng's trip to the capital was arranged quite tightly, that is, to sign a purchase contract with two breeding cattle bases, and a transportation contract with a transportation company, which could be completed within a day, and then flew back to Yudu, waiting for the breeding cattle to be transported back to Qinglong Village.
