Although this house can't be compared with the ranch mansion built by Garrison Investment Group in California, it is already quite good in Ye Mu's opinion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After lying on the bed for a while, Ye Mu called Hank.

Ye Mu bought the farm and took it over with his former employees. Hank is a farm manager with more than 10 years of farm management experience.

I went to the bathroom to take a shower, and when I came out, Zhang Dongsheng had just sent away the truck muscular man, and he was sitting in the yard chatting with a white man in his fifties with a big beard.

"Hey, Boss." When Hank saw Ye Mu coming out, he quickly stood up and said.

"Well, I'd like to know how the farm is doing." Ye Mu asked directly.

"Occupying the fertile land of the river valley, the farm is doing very well, making a profit of between four and six million dollars a year......

Listening to Hank's introduction, Ye Mu couldn't help frowning, investing 200 million, the annual profit is only 5 million, which is not as high as the interest of the bank.

It was also learned that the reason why Stephen sold the farm was because Stephen's son owed a large bank loan and was unwilling to return to the countryside to take over the farm, so Stephen had no choice but to sell the ranch. I also don't want the son of the loser to be unable to pay the inheritance tax after he dies, so that the farm will fall into the hands of the federal government.

The farm has 27 employees, all of whom are long-term local residents, some of whom have moved into the farm with their families. Every family depends on farm life......

Ye Mu nodded: "They all rely on the farm to live?" ”

"Hmm. Working on a farm costs $3,000 a month, which is already an upper-middle-income income in Montana, more than enough to support a family by one person. ”

Montana is the most economically backward state in the United States, and according to a 2015 survey, the average annual income of young people (under the age of 30) is only $18,000. You know, once you get the data on the 'average', there is a lot of moisture in these two......

Ye Mu was a little speechless, and then followed Hank to see the farm machinery warehouse, and listened to Hank complain about various problems with farm machinery. The main problem is aging, many of the equipment is the 80s products, most of them are small machinery, large and medium-sized are basically second-hand.

"I'm going to upgrade the farm's capacity and buy a batch of state-of-the-art equipment, which is all sold." Ye Mu touched the rusty tractor and said speechlessly.

The investment has been filed with the tax bureau, and upgrading the equipment is also an investment plan. For the next few days, Hank and Ye Mu hated the problem of purchasing machinery. 90,000 acres of cultivated land, and the best thing about it is that it requires large machinery.

"Hank, look at this combine." This is a combine harvester designed specifically for large farms, several times more efficient than the harvesters used on farms today, and of course, it is also expensive, with a new harvester costing $600,000. With an intelligent navigation system, it can accelerate or slow down according to the density of crops, without wasting a little food and diesel.

Moreover, its cab is very beautiful, and the computer shows that it can tell the driver how much grain has been harvested in an acre of land at the time of harvesting, and can also display the temperature of the grain, as well as connect with the grain dryer......

"Not bad, yes, yes. But ......," Hank said indescribably, "the big guy can free up labor, but it also means that the farm needs to be laid off." ”

"No, I don't. I'm going to make the farm an integrated farm, and I will need more employees. ”

Hank and Ye Mu stayed together for two days, he deeply felt that this boss's aura was strong, but he didn't smile, as if no one was allowed to enter, giving people a feeling of iron-blooded ruthlessness. The farmworkers are residents of a town and have been friends for decades, and if they lose their current jobs, most of the family will struggle to make ends meet.

Hearing that Ye Mu was preparing to transform the farm, Hank was relieved and secretly happy. began to give advice to Ye Mu......

He knew that Ye Mu was a master who was not bad for money, and said, "Otherwise, contact John Deere Company to design a management system for our farm." All the machinery and equipment required are purchased from John Deere Company. ”

Ye Mu felt that Hank's idea was good, so he agreed.

This was handed over to Hank, who also talked about his plans to make a major renovation of the farm: "I want to build an asphalt road to the pasture and expand the farm. Build a new horse farm and buy some good horses. ”

"If you are happy to build an asphalt road on the farm. A new horse farm is necessary, and there are cattle pens and sheep pens that need to be maintained...... The boundaries of the pasture also need to be repaired, and a few days ago a black bear visited the stone canyon and killed several goats. ”

"There's a black bear in this place?" Ye Mu asked.

"Behind it are the Rocky Mountains, and there are not only black bears but also wolves...... After the busy farming, we often organize hunting together. ”

Speaking of hunting, Ye Mu immediately became interested and said, "Remember to call me when hunting." Also, the boundary fence should be maintained as soon as possible, before the arrival of the snow season. I don't want unpredictable risks on my farm. ”

"OK, I'll contact the farm maintenance company right away."

"Well, you make a list of what else you need on the farm. I estimate that I will invest another 60 million ...... in the farm."

"Sixty million?" Hank took a cool breath.

Ye Mu smiled bitterly: "You should know about my business, investment tax reduction." ”

"Well, the farm needs a lot of maintenance." Hank said goodbye to Ye Mu, only walked a few steps and stopped, and said, "Boss, are you going to settle down on the farm?" ”

"With this plan, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, I want to give the employees a day off tomorrow to prepare a picnic event. You've just arrived, and people are curious about you and want to get to know you. ”

“ok。 How about the event by the river? By the way, call the staff of the ranch and kill a few sheep. ”

"Long live the boss." Hank cheered, got into the car, and left.

Back at home, Zhang Dongsheng was bored playing League of Legends: "In the countryside, I didn't expect the Internet speed to be okay." ”

Ye Mu looked at his record, he was already super godly, twelve kills, zero deaths: "Tomorrow there is a staff party and a picnic." Where did you put the seasoning you brought from China before? ”

"Tomorrow? I ...... day Anna is coming over, I'll pick it up tomorrow. Zhang Dongsheng has been playing the League of Legends for twenty minutes, and the other side chose to surrender, and he also closed the page and found the seasoning for Ye Mu, and said.

"The event may continue until the evening, and when you come back, I'm sure you'll be given a hot drink." Ye Mu smiled and said, "Have you figured out the direction of investment?" I still have a little spare money that I can fund a little. ”

"I wanted to invest in a ranch, and yesterday I consulted with a real estate agent, and there is a ranch for sale at the southern end of the town of Donggus, 10,000 acres of pasture, and the existing cattle pen can accommodate 35,000 beef cattle. How about you invest in me to help you manage it? Zhang Dongsheng said cheekily.

Ye Mu replied with one word: "Get out!" 35,000 head of cattle is more troublesome than managing my Huaxi farm, and less than 50 million investment can't be played at all. At your level, invest in you, and I'm going to lose money. ”

Zhang Dongsheng touched his chin awkwardly and said, "There is also a pasture, 3,000 acres of pasture, raising 2,000 cows." I want you to borrow five million, take that ranch down, and do it myself. ”

"It's pretty much the same, let's go over and see it together in two days." Ye Mu took out the checkbook, filled out a check for 5.5 million, and said, "The extra 500,000 yuan will be used as working capital for you, and you don't have to pay it back." Tomorrow you go to the county seat, and it will be cashed out. ”

“3Q。” Zhang Dongsheng took the check, quickly wrote an IOU, five million, and said: "To be honest, buddy took a lot of benefits from you, and then took 500,000 yuan from you, and I panicked." ”

"My day, you still know the skin." Ye Mu rolled his eyes.

"Damn! It's very good and powerful, and there was still a little bit of guilt, but now it's gone, and I feel at ease. ”
