Chapter 10 Ranch Beginnings
10 ranch starts
All the way to the smoke and dust, fortunately the horse has a good memory, did not deviate, safe Chen Nan took it to the horse circle, Chen Nan rubbed his thighs and scolded and came home, picked up the phone and gave Rachel, after the phone was connected, Chen Nan couldn't wait to say, "Hi, Rachel, can you help me contact the drilling company?" ”
Rachel said, "Nan, this is my job, I'll get in touch soon, I'll come over tomorrow." ”
Chen Nandao: "Can it be faster?" Okay today? "Yes, all right!" Rachel said strangely.
In the afternoon, Rachel arrived with a drilling company manager named Constance, and Chen Nan led him to the dry shaft next to the woods, "Do you want to continue drilling down here?" "Mr. Chen Nan, this was drilled by our company before, and there is rock down here, you know, it's not easy," Constance said.
"50,000" Chen Nandao said, "But it's closer." That's all there is to capitalism. It's easy to get things done with money.
Although I don't know why Chen Nan insisted on drilling here, Constance still happily signed the contract.
Chen Nan has more to be busy than that, because Chen Nan knows that there will be water, so he can speed up the replacement of grass. Plant grass one day earlier, make money one day earlier.
Finding Crion and asking Crane to contact the Grass Company, Crane looked puzzled, "Nan, this is not a good choice. ”
Chen Nan didn't want to force this old cowboy who was really a ranch, and if he encountered this kind of thing in the future, it would not be easy to explain, so he said, "Corian, Huaxia has a history of 5,000 years, and there are many magical inheritances, which cannot be explained by science, you know!" ”
Corion exclaimed, "Nan, are you saying you have that magical heritage, like witchcraft?" Chen Nan said with an unfathomable face, "It's Taoism, and there are many rules in Huaxia, so try not to go around saying that you know?" ”
For a country with no history, most Americans have enough respect for historical heritage.
Seeing this, Chryan didn't say anything more, and left with a look on my face that I would keep it a secret.
The price of the seed company is 200 US dollars a year, the time is 20 days, after all, it is close to 10,000 acres of pasture, the pasture is alfalfa, not only the grass yield is high, and the grass quality is excellent, with high nutritional value, crude protein, vitamins and inorganic salts are rich, the amino acids in the protein are relatively complete, and the amino acid content of animals must be high. The crude protein content in the dry matter is 15-25%, which is equivalent to half of soybean cake, 1-1.5 times higher than corn, and the lysine content is 1.06-1.38%, which is 4-5 times higher than that of corn. The soil requirements are not strict, and sandy soil and clay soil can grow. There is also satawang, which has strong resistance to stress and wide adaptability, and has the characteristics of drought resistance, cold resistance, wind and sand resistance, and barren resistance.
Chen Nan calculated that he still had 7 million, 1.7 million for pasture, 50,000 for drilling, and reserved for pasture expenses. Set aside to pay taxes, Chen Nan still has about 5 million left.
It's been 3 days since the drilling, and today Constance found Chen Nan with a surprised face, "Nan, the water has been drilled, but there was a little accident." ”
Chen Nan wondered, "What accident?" Pierced the Earth? "The place is all pointed out clearly, you only need to hit through the rock of about 2 meters, and there will be an accident, you play me, right?
Constance explained, "No, no, it's good news, there's a fountain down there. ”
At this time, Chen Nan was not calm, "You mean the fountain?" Quick, go check it out. "Said that he was going to drive a pickup truck, and he was a pickup truck, and he didn't do it anymore until he became a master of riding.
As they passed by the herd, Corion and Daisy got into the car together when they heard about it, after all, it was a great event for the ranch.
When they arrived at the northwest corner of the drilling site, the workers all stopped and gathered around, in the middle only a column of water with a diameter of half a meter rushed out of the ground more than one meter high, watching the cool spring water soak the soil, Chen Nan's heart was filled with great joy, it turned out that Chen Nan's plan was to use the machine to pump up the water, but he didn't think about it, God gave Chen Nan a big surprise. After all, Chen Nan is not a geologist, so he doesn't know where a fountain will be built.
Daisy was already shouting with joy, after all, it was the ranch where she grew up, and Corian was full of surprise and such an expression, and then squeezed her eyebrows at Chen Nan, Chen Nan looked at him and said a word in his eyes (don't worry, I will keep it secret)
At this time, Constance said, "Nan, you are a lucky fellow, but I think you need a big cistern, our company is very experienced!" ”
Chen Nan smiled all over his face, thought for a while, and said, "Okay! Let's dig a small artificial lake! It doesn't need to be too big for the ranch, how much does it need?. "Okay, how about 0.2 acres and 3 meters deep, it only costs 2 million US dollars." Constance said with a smile on his face
Chen Nan calculated that it was more than 700 square meters, and said, "1.2 million," Seeing that Constance also wanted to say that he would become stronger, "You know that the economy is not too prosperous recently, and there will be many people who are willing." "Chen Nan has been here for more than a month, and he knows that Lao Mei likes to slaughter Asians as big heads, so he bargained directly for death. Seeing that Constance was full of entanglement, Chen Nan's heart was dark. "Alright! Nan, I shouldn't have listened to that damn old drunkard Dick, he said that he had been to Huaxia when he was young, and said that there should be room for bargaining when doing business, but, 1.2 million is too low, how about 1.5 million? ”
"120, this is the bottom limit" Chen Nan refused without hesitation.
In the end, Constance agreed. It's not that Chen Nan is too ruthless, but Chen Nan can't help it, because Chen Nan doesn't have much money, and he just received Rachel's phone call, and he has to pay 1.8 million taxes this year, which is the data after reasonable tax avoidance. Chen Nan calculated that he had a deposit of 5 million a few days ago, and now there is 2 million left, alas! Plans don't have to change quickly.
From 15 million to 2 million, the gap in my heart is not ordinarily big! Fortunately, Chen Nan has a gourd ranch, as long as he manages it well, it will definitely bring Chen Nan a lot of income.
Chen Nan was very busy this month, Chen Nan had to watch the progress of the project during the day every day, and secretly soaked the grass seeds with spiritual water at night, and this work was not sent to others to do.
Today, the pasture grass in the pasture has finally been replaced, and the seeds planted in advance have begun to germinate, and the seeds that have been soaked in spiritual water are different, and the vitality is small and strong, plus there is plenty of spring water, it is simply a day a day!
The small lake has also been dug up! Chen Nan stared at it every day, the speed was very fast, and the irrigation system began to be used after the spring water came out, after all, it was just that there was no water source.
Chen Nan walked in the pasture, the sky here was clear and clear, the blue seemed to be within reach, the earth was a piece of emerald green, and the small buds that had just emerged were swaying in the wind.
Today's work is no longer coming, and only Chen Nan and Crion's family are left in the ranch, and Crion's home is more than 100 meters behind Chen Nan's house.
