Chapter 241: Cattle and Sheep Treading the Snow
The calves that Qin Yi said were calves and half-grown cows, because he understood that the most precious breeding cows and cows in the pasture would not be sold by Old Nord.
Not all of the cowsheds in Helm Ranch collapsed, and the small part that remained was just enough to house the more than 2,000 breeding cattle and cows of the pasture, and it was those calves who stayed in the grove.
Originally, Qin Yi turned to look at him, and Old Nord had a guess, but now that he heard this sentence with his own ears, he naturally felt a different feeling in his heart: happy? Grateful? Relieved?
These are all there, but it is undeniable that the trace of regret in my heart is also crossed by my heart without any mercy!
But soon, he let go, and in today's situation, the right price to change hands on this batch of cattle and sheep, as much as possible to reduce the loss, is the best result!
"Of course! Yi, I will give you the most suitable price! ”
The most suitable and not the most favorable, Qin Yi smiled secretly in his heart, it was indeed the true character of a businessman!
But as long as the price is the most suitable, the highest price will not exceed eighty percent of the market price anyway, otherwise let alone Qin Yi turning around and leaving, the ranchers present will also open their mouths to scold this old man!
The relationship between these ranchers who came to help and Qin Yi is not bad, not to mention Walker, Jones, and Marcus, other ranchers will also uphold justice, as a cowboy, there is still at least the boldness and righteousness in his heart!
Everyone is here to help for the sake of your neighbors, you are insatiable, so wait to become everyone's laughing stock!
Fortunately, old Nord was not insatiable, and after calling the ranch manager and muttering for a while, he quoted his price: seventy percent of the market price!
It was lower than expected, Qin Yi nodded secretly, and gestured to Ryan, indicating that it was acceptable, so Ryan took the information of the cattle and sheep from Old Nord, turned it around and handed it to Qin Yi, and then helped the staff on the side.
The market price of calves is now more than $700, and half-sized cattle are generally around $1,500. There are about 5,000 calves in the woods, and after the market price is 70%, the direct price is 3.5 million US dollars, and the price of the remaining thousands of lambs is even lower.
In the end, Qin Yi calculated in his heart that if he could safely transport the calf and lamb back to the ranch this time, he would be able to earn almost $1.5 million!
Of course, this deal. Old Nord is not a loss, let alone a loss, but it is just a small profit compared to previous years. As long as there are more than 2,000 cows and breeding cows, the Helm ranch will not collapse, and within two years, it will be restored to its current size.
Therefore, in this transaction, both parties can be regarded as having their own gains, and they are all happy.
Of course. This kind of joy is a good thing for Qin Yi, but it is a last resort for Old Nord, if he can, he doesn't want to have such a joy again in his life!
Qin Yi called the bank on the spot. Pay a deposit to Helm Ranch and settle the balance after the cattle and sheep have been driven back to the pasture.
He did not delay, but at this time he delayed. The calves and lambs were in danger of getting sick or even freezing to death, so they immediately began to gather the cowboys of the Sun River Ranch to drive the cattle and sheep. Hit the road home.
Several other people came to help the rancher, and also called their own cowboys to help drive the cattle and sheep, and now the most important thing is to drive these cattle and sheep back to the pasture safely.
Anyway, there are still a small part that has not collapsed, enough for the cows to live.
At the same time, Qin Yi also called Susa and asked her to organize the cowboy to prepare for it.
In this way, the mighty vehicles, cattle and sheep hit the road.
As usual, the big tractor is in front, the cattle and sheep are in the middle, and the cowboys are also on foot, while comforting the cattle and sheep to prevent the explosion of the herd, while rushing forward, from time to time someone gets off the car, and they get on the car to rest and warm up.
During this time, Ye Fang watched Qin Yi doing business with others, and he didn't speak, and when he was talking about business, he was still very measured and didn't interject indiscriminately.
This time I bought 10,000 cattle and sheep, and it spread all the way, and the spectacular scene opened the eyes of Ye Enlarged, who saw it for the first time.
"I'll you!"
Ye Fang lay on the back of the seat, stared back with wide eyes, the dense cow head and sheep head was quite weird and alternative beauty, "Today is an eye-opener, so many cows and sheep are walking on the road, that scene is shocking!" ”
Saying that, this guy raised his eyebrows at Qin Yi and smiled: "I will have capital to brag in the future!" ”
"Haha, the last time you bought calves, you didn't see that 50,000 calves stood together, and the scene was shocking! I was a little stunned at the time, you said you were going to launch a madness, and you didn't care if you stepped on the dead and buried it! ”
Qin Yi glanced at the cattle and sheep through the rearview mirror, but he didn't have any special feelings, perhaps, this is the sea that once been.
With experienced cowboys to appease, the odds of blowing up the crowd are negligible.
When Ye Fang heard this, he was a little worried, now that it is cold, he shouldn't go crazy, right?
But he immediately reacted again, he was sitting on a big tractor, crazy and couldn't step on himself, whatever!
So, the guy continued to lie there and look backwards.
Cattle and sheep were driven in the snow, and the movement was even slower, and more than an hour passed, only a quarter of the way was walked!
At this time, in the distance, a convoy came in front, several pickup trucks and board trucks, and a water tanker, which was closer, and found that there were piles of forage on it, and it seemed that someone from the Sun River Ranch had answered.
Qin Yi ordered through the walkie-talkie, the team slowly stopped, and the cowboys ran back and forth to comfort the cattle and sheep.
When the convoy in front of them stopped, it was Susa and Susie who came down, and even Angel and Sara came.
Even the program team that received the news, after seeking Susa's consent, also followed, and was running around to shoot the scene, planning to shoot this huge scene as broadcast material!
Now is not the time to chat, Qin Yi didn't say much, and instructed the cowboys to feed the cattle and sheep with grass and warm water.
The warm water was in the tanker, which Sousa urgently ordered the cowboys to boil after receiving the call, and rushed all the way here, just warm.
The cattle and sheep have forage and warm water, and their sense of security is stronger, so they are more and more quiet, eating grass and drinking water, replenishing their physical strength, and even the cattle and sheep who were originally depressed have recovered a little after eating the improved version of the forage.
Qin Yi saw this situation in his eyes, and felt that Susa had come in time, otherwise some cattle and sheep would be sick if he couldn't keep it.
Sousa then talked about the preparations for the pasture.
Because the cowshed near the main house was already in use, this batch of cattle and sheep could only be sent to one cowshed in the north, and when she came, Hobbes had already informed Hobbes, who was now in charge of the matter that needed him to do nothing on the farm.
Qin Yi was relieved when he heard this, Hobbs, like Ryan, was also an old cowboy and worked solidly.
Not only did the cattle and sheep have something to eat, but Sousa also prepared a lot of hot coffee and burgers, and everyone had been busy all morning, just to cushion their stomachs.
A simple meal in the ice and snow made everyone satisfied, replenished their physical strength, and became more motivated, driving the cattle and sheep who had recovered their physical strength to go on the road again.
Susa and Susie drove back to the ranch first.
More than an hour later, when Qin Yi led everyone to drive the cattle and sheep to the pasture, Susa rushed over with the convoy again, and the grass and warm water prepared again made the cattle and sheep full.
Later, the cowboys left behind in the ranch came to meet and sent the cattle and sheep to the cowshed in the northern part of the living area.
Under the intimate care, the cattle and sheep successfully arrived at the Sun River Ranch and survived a difficulty.
Under Hobbes's arrangement, the electric heating fan had already been turned on, and the temperature in the entire cowshed was more than ten degrees, which was nearly twenty degrees different from the outside.
The warm environment, the kind cowboys, and the warm water and forage prepared made the frightened and unfamiliar environment of the cattle and sheep all feel down, eat and drink enough, and lie down on the soft and warm hay to nap.
Qin Yi and the others looked at this scene and showed a happy smile, this time the accident passed so smoothly.
Of course, the cattle and sheep settled down, and it was indispensable to thank the ranchers and cowboys who helped all the way, it was already afternoon, and everyone hadn't had a good meal, so at Qin Yi's suggestion, everyone came to the cowboy entertainment hall in the workers' room, and sat down to have a meal together, Susa and Susie Chefs, it was very hearty!
