933.The Trench Cow, the Good Cow (4/5)
Hearing him say this, Leonard congratulated him in advance: "Then you've come to the right place, man, I have to say, you're probably the one who has gained the most today." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info water cows were very expensive when they were introduced to New Zealand, but they were not suitable for the North and South Island environment, and now many ranchers are selling them at low prices. ”
Wang Bo smiled, it is true, this is the reason why water cows cannot be sold at a high price in New Zealand.
In addition, there is another reason why he dares to buy these two kinds of water cows, that is, the heart of the pasture, which has the double guarantee of hot springs and the heart of the pasture, and he believes that these water cows can live well in the pasture.
With several goals set, Wang Bo waited for the auction to begin.
Before Leonard left, he suddenly showed a mysterious smile to him: "Wang, you have come to this auction today, you are definitely the right one." ”
Wang Bo nodded and said, "Yes, I know, I can buy water cows and these dairy goats." ”
"Not only that, the first shot of the opening, I think you must be very interested, you better take it, you won't suffer." Leonard continued to assume a mysterious posture and floated away after saying that.
At ten o'clock, the morning session of the auction began.
Kulau's auditorium is one of the most luxurious buildings in the area, with a huge screen in front of the stage, like a movie theater, and a welcome message appears on the screen when the auction begins.
The auctioneer appeared with white gloves and announced the official start of the auction.
"I'm going to invite you to the first lot, but before you bid, on behalf of the auction organizers, I would like to invite you to watch the video below!"
Hearing the auctioneer's words, the rancher beside Wang Bo muttered, "What kind of mystery is there?" Hurry up and shoot a delicious meal! ”
Wang Bogang wanted to laugh and talk to him, but at this time, a deep voice appeared in the speaker:
"On a dairy farm in the Saudi desert, 8,000 employees work around the clock to care for 86,000 livestock. Each of the 50,000 cows milked twice a day produces 12,400 litres of 14 different dairy products delivered by 1,000 trucks to 34,000 customers across the Persian Gulf region. ”
"The cows raised on this dairy farm eat corn, straw, grains and syrup, plus minerals and additives. The cows drink water from a cenote pumped from a well two kilometers deep underground and cooled by a 15-metre-high cooling platform. ”
"In addition, the cows live in an air-conditioned barn with several farms. Under these conditions, the most legendary dairy breed in the world's modern history was born! ”
Accompanied by this sound, a video began to appear on the big screen.
The footage is very technical, with a large golden desert appearing first, then the camera stretching and an oasis appearing on the screen, and pastures appear in the oasis.
There are a lot of cows living in the pasture, but the strange thing is that these cows are all skinny, Wang Bo is a little confused, is this a cow that has been bred by abuse? The cows he saw were all big-shouldered and round-waisted.
"Safi Cow!" Peterson, who was accompanying him, was surprised and said, "Is the Safi cow going to be auctioned?" ”
"What kind of cow is Safi? Why haven't I heard of it? Lao Wang showed an attitude of not being ashamed to ask.
Peterson didn't answer, but looked at the screen carefully and said, "This is the Safidairy Farm in Saudi Arabia?" Chief, take a closer look, this is the largest dairy farm in the world according to Guinness, and some say it was paved with gold by the Saudis. ”
Wang Bo said: "If you want to see it, just go to Saudi Arabia to see it, what can you see from the video?" ”
Peter said, "Don't you know? The Japanese keep the Wagyu cow as a treasure, and the Saudis keep the Safi cow as a treasure! As far as I know, they don't allow ordinary people to enter the ranch, and the workers inside have a strict confidentiality agreement! ”
Wang Bo was surprised: "It's just a cow, as for it?" ”
"Of course, the milk produced by these cows is only for the rich, politicians and celebrities, and I have doubts about the fact that their pastures are paved with gold, but I am absolutely convinced that their milk is liquid gold!" Peterson said.
The big screen continues to introduce the reasons for the birth of this cow.
There is a saying in the Middle East that Saudis can not drink water, but they cannot drink less milk, which Lao Wang also knows that milk and dairy products have always been an indispensable food on the table of Saudis, and Middle Easterners like this thing.
In 1973, Arab countries imposed an oil embargo on the West, and the West imposed sanctions on them, including the shrinkage of milk sources.
In this context, Saudi Arabia realized that its food, especially dairy products, was completely dependent on imports, and that a food embargo would be a disaster for the people, and in this case, the Saudi government decided to allocate a huge amount of money to raise its own dairy cows, and the Safi dairy farm was built in this context.
Raising cattle requires water and grass, and raising good cattle requires high-quality water and grass.
In the pasture of Sunset Town, the reason why the quality of beef and mutton is so good is not only the heart of the third-level pasture, but also the effect of receiving spring water.
However, almost all of the deserts and even deserts in Saudi Arabia are incredibly expensive in this environment, but the Saudis did not hesitate, as long as the money can solve the problem, it is not a problem!
Ordinary grass seeds can't grow in the desert, right? Okay, that's no problem, go buy the best grass seeds. All the grass seeds needed for this farm are imported from Australia and the UK!
Solved the pasture, there is still a water source, the desert is short of water, right? It doesn't matter, we are close to the sea and can do desalination.
The irrigation water for this farm is all desalination of seawater, which costs dozens of times more than ordinary fresh water.
Here, the irrigation equipment used in the pasture is all American, and the water sprayed out is very even, like a drizzle, which is very beneficial to the growth of grass.
Wang Bo saw from the big screen that the pastures in this farm were round, one after the other, growing lush, like a pearl embedded in the desert.
Spend a lot of money to build a farm, can it raise ordinary cattle?
On the big screen, the cattle used for breeding were all purebred dairy cows imported from Europe and Canada, and they were worth a lot of money.
In order to transport these special passengers, the Saudi government rented several large converted cargo planes and used special planes to pick them up.
Seeing this, the following Lao Wang was dumbfounded, not only him, but other ranchers who didn't know about this kind of cow were also dumbfounded, and discussions broke out:
"Just use a special plane, or a modified special plane?"
"Shet, Middle Easterners are so rich! Is it so much to breed cows? Why not buy milk from New Zealand? We can't help but sanction it! ”
"I just want to ask, is there a shortage of people on this dairy farm? Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm not here to raise cows, I want to be raised as cows. ”
Cousins sighed: "I always thought that the leader was a big tyrant, but now I know that the tyrant is like this!" (To be continued.) )
