Mo Xie thought seriously for a while and said: "At most two months a year, however, I will arrange for people to develop here, such as drilling wells, building reservoirs, building solar power stations, and finally cultivating farms, of course, if there is enough water, planting grass is also very interesting."

Old William smiled and said, "Haha, the young man is really interesting, you think I'm too lazy, right?" ”

The land utilization rate of most pastures in Australia is not high, so William, as an eighty-year-old man, can easily hear the meaning of Mo Xie's words.

Looking at this old man with a loud voice, he is eighty years old, and he feels similar to a sixty-year-old man in China.

Old William's face was ruddy, there were no age spots at all, plus his voice was loud, his steps were steady, and even his teeth were white and neat.

Such an old man, you say that he is sixty years old, some people will definitely believe him, but on the contrary, he will say that he is eighty years old, so no one will believe him.

"This is a fact, maybe because the resources are too abundant, so even the hard-working people will become lazy after living here for a long time." Mo Xie said with a smile.

This is not nonsense, for example, the largest ranch in Australia that Mo Xie knows, with an area of more than 10,000 square kilometers, but this ranch only raises 60,000 sheep.

Not to mention the pasture, let's talk about the old William Ranch, here is only 10,000 sheep and 3,000 cattle, plus some other bits and pieces of animals, they usually do not manage at all, completely free-range.

Old William shrugged his shoulders and said, "However, you don't seem to meet my qualifications, so you can't be diligent if you want to." ”

Looking at the smiling old man, Mo Xie also smiled: "I am a student and need to go to school, so I can only come here during the holidays." ”

At this time, old William fell silent.

There are few Australians, and foreigners generally don't get the news of his gift of land, and even if they know about it, they will think it's a lie.

Of course, the biggest thing is probably the fear of the unknown, so the chances of foreigners coming here are very small.

Mo Ye is not the best option, but it is one of the few good ones.

Although Mo Xie will not spend much time here, he will vigorously develop the ranch, and there must be a lot of workers to use.

And with more money invested, Mo Xie will not give up here easily, so in the future, there will be more and more time here.

"Your country has little land, and it is all intensively cultivated, I wonder how many workers you plan to recruit?" William Sr. quickly thought of how to deal with it.

"It won't be too much at first, but this piece of land is very large, and if it is divided into three hundred parts, each one will require at least five or six people, so that the house you prepare will be a little less." Mo Xie said with a smile.

Mo Xie is not afraid that this lonely old man will reject him, if he really recruits more than a thousand employees, a small town will be formed here, and then he is afraid that Old William will be afraid that it will be too noisy.

Old William said with a smile: "Six hundred square kilometers, divided into three hundred parts, each two square kilometers, isn't it too small?" ”

Although Old William wanted more people, he was afraid that Mo Ye would not have so much financial resources.

You must know that labor in Australia is not cheap, and if there is not enough profit, it will definitely lose money.

"Two square kilometers is 200 hectares, and if you do intensive farming, you will need a lot of workers, so this piece of land is still too large." Mo Xie shook his head and said.

Mo Ye had already learned a lot about the situation here, and there would not be much land that could be reclaimed into farmland after removing the jungle, rocky areas, and protective grasslands.

However, 200 hectares is 3,000 acres of land, and even if only 300 acres of land are cultivated, it will take four or five people to cultivate and manage it.

Don't think that there are fewer people using mechanized farming, if you add other work, five or six people manage 3,000 acres of land, the workload is still very large.

Therefore, this is a decision made by Mo Ye after careful consideration, if it is carried out according to his plan, three hundred pieces of land, at least 1,800 workers will be needed.

These workers, on average, manage 3,000 acres of land, and they need to feed cattle and sheep, grow crops and, if they can, grow grapes and other fruits.

So, don't look at the 1,800 workers who are more than that, if they are scattered over this huge land, it is really not enough.

Feeling that Mo Xie was telling the truth, Old William fell silent.

If it could really gather 1,800 people, plus their families, it would really be a small town.

William Sr. had a good plan, and the land he divided was all around the small lake in front of his house, in order to gather the population.

Now Mo Xie has fulfilled his wish, so, Mo Ye should be the best choice.

At this time, Wang Yihe has a role, and the land sale contract provided by Old William definitely needs to be carefully studied.

"No problem." After studying for two hours, Wang Yihe said to Mo Xiedao, who was barbecuing by the lake.

The two sheep catchers they saw when they came here were old William's employees, so they could eat roast lamb at this time.

William Sr. controls such a large pasture, but only employs these two people, and their cattle and sheep herds are really naturally free-range, really extensive free-range, if they are left alone, maybe these cattle and sheep will become wild animals.

On more than 1,600 square kilometers of land, just three people are in charge, which sounds incredible, but it is the truth.

On this land, the two workers only need to shear sheep or sell cattle and sheep, and their usual job is to tend to the hundreds of acres of farms and vegetable fields near the lake.

Compared with Mo Xie's plan, Old William is really lazy to go home, but he is an eighty-year-old man and a well-known landowner, and he has enough capital to waste.

And Mo Xie is different, he signed a contract, and he got the right to use 500 square kilometers of land, which is 50,000 hectares of land, and the price paid is only 100,000 Australian dollars, which can be said to be the real price of cabbage.

Of course, it was absolutely impossible for the land to be sold to Mo Xie alone, so Mo Xie had to find three hundred people to come and continue to sign the contract.

And the others don't have so much land, they only have a hundred hectares each, a total of three hundred people, that is, 30,000 hectares, three hundred square kilometers of land.

This time, Mo Xie bought a total of 800 square kilometers of land, and he had already bought a large area of land in the center of William's Ranch.

Now the land in the hands of old William is only a ring around the Mo Ye land, in order to surround the Mo Ye land and prevent Mo Ye from having the possibility of repentance.

"The remaining 80,000 hectares of land, $50,000 each, will be traded in 10 years at the latest." Wang Yihe explained in a low voice.

"As long as we honor our agreement, in ten years at the latest, this land will be completely mine?" Mo Xie asked.

"Yes, now this transaction, the transaction tax is completely borne by William Sr., but in ten years, we will need to bear it." Wang Yihe said.

Mo Ye nodded, the current old William sold the land, not to make money.

After ten years, he doesn't know what the situation is, and even if he lives, it is unlikely that he will be able to wander around, so he will give up the land.

At that time, there was no need for William Sr. to continue to help pay the transaction tax.

"50,000 Australian dollars a hectare, a total of 80,000 hectares, that's another 4 billion Australian dollars!" Mo Xie was a little helpless, he just had hundreds of millions of dollars, and he just felt that he was a rich man, but now he was hit again.

Four billion Australian dollars, that is, 20 billion yuan, must start preparing from now on, otherwise ten years later, where will he get the money to buy this land?

"After signing the contract, we must prepare to fulfill the agreement, otherwise, all our preliminary work will be wasted." Wang Yihe reminded.

Mo Xie naturally knew that without four billion Australian dollars at that time, the land he got now would definitely still fall into the hands of William Sr's descendants.

Otherwise, the descendants of Old William would not let Old William mess around like this.

Don't look for rich people, sell land piecemeal, in order to be easy to handle.

However, do they really think that Mo Xie will not be able to make up four billion Australian dollars? Not to mention that there are still ten years to go!

At this time, Mo Xie thought of the No. 1 big landlord in the east, where there were 470,000 hectares of land waiting to be sold, and the sky-high price of 14.1 billion Australian dollars must have discouraged many people.

There is very little money to use, and a delicious meal of roast mutton was eaten by Mo Ye without taste, which was completely troubled by money.

"It looks like we're going to have to use some unconventional means." Mo Ye touched his left wrist, feeling that the preparations he had made earlier could now be used a little.

"Young man, you seem to be in a bad mood?" Just as Mo Ye was making a decision, Old William walked over.

Looking at the smiling old William, Mo Ye smiled and said, "Thinking about how to make money!" ”

"Haha, this is good, young people should be a little self-motivated, if you want to make money, you must listen to my opinion, we are not short of water here, if you can invest some, planting grass will definitely make money, otherwise your workers' living expenses will be enough for you to have a headache." Old William laughed.

"Raising cattle and sheep? Forming a large ranch like the United States? "Mo Evil Dao.

"Yes, increase the utilization rate of land, can my old man know? It's just that I'm old and no longer have the energy, now it's up to you young people, you know, although our country is called a country riding on the back of a sheep, but the price of beef and mutton is not cheap. Old William said with a little emotion.

"High cost of living?" Mo Xie said thoughtfully.

Old William said: "Yes, if all the living materials rely on the purchase, the cost is not generally high, not to mention beef, just mutton, do you know how much is a kilogram of mutton in the supermarket?" ”

At this time, Song Yuanhang said: "It's about 126-289 yuan per kilogram, and I'm talking about RMB." ”
