Chapter 193: Simply Face Jun
After such a fuss, Shi Lei was completely sober, and when he saw the state of the skunk just now, he really scared the cold sweat out. ∮ ∮ ∮ Xiao ∮ said, Shi Lei, who had already been refreshed, simply ran to the Zen room to continue his training.
In the more than one month I have been living in New York, I basically have nothing left to eat except for playing, and I still pick those delicious foods, and I can keep my figure and not get fat thanks to Shi Lei's strong physique now, of course, shopping is also a very workout thing.
I haven't practiced my fists and feet for more than a month, although I was a little happy when I played, but after returning to the ranch this time, Shi Lei still felt a sense of guilt, it was not possible to waste the law so much, and the things I practiced before had regressed.
So after returning to the ranch, Shi Lei simply used it for training as soon as he had time, for Shi Lei, these trainings never seemed boring, but very fun, and the sense of accomplishment and joy that clearly felt his progress always prompted Shi Lei to continue to work hard.
In the evening, everyone took a break from their work or hobbies, the fishing father and brother-in-law returned, the mother and sister who were busy working on the recipes also came out of the kitchen, and Laura also emerged from her design room, and everyone gathered in the living room to watch TV and chat.
This is also the habit of Shi Lei's family, and then the evening time to relax and communicate at the same time, you can learn from each other's experience, how to deal with things or something, and more importantly, it is a good opportunity for everyone to enhance their feelings.
Shi Lei took Laura's waist and sat on the two-seater sofa together, and his father sat in the middle of the TV. Dad also habitually provoked conversations.
"Stone, I've been watching Laura on the news, it seems that she also talked about Stone Ranch or something, and the stack of newspapers over there, is it also about Stone Ranch?" Dad pointed to the stack of newspapers that had been placed on the coffee table.
"Well, yes, those newspapers are all about Stone Ranch. I just bought it back and prepared to collect it. The main thing is that the last time I went to New York to participate in a food exhibition, many of the ingredients produced by Stone Ranch won the first prize, so many food-related media reported on Stone Ranch.
I didn't want to face the camera, so I asked Laura to go over and face the reporter. When he said this, Shi Lei's tone couldn't help but show pride and pride.
"Oh, this is the great opportunity for the development of the ranch that you have been talking about, since it has achieved such good results as you thought, not only has it won many awards but also has so many reports, I think the popularity of Stone Ranch should have risen by now. Have you taken this opportunity to expand the market? Dad patted the stack of newspapers next to him as he spoke.
"Of course, on the last day of the exhibition, I already signed long-term supply agreements with many customers. For this reason, I am planning to expand the size of the ranch, and there are no suitable places around, so I have arranged for Greens to find a few suitable large ranches to talk first.
As before, this method can be used to fully understand the surrounding environment and negotiate the price appropriately. Anyway, such a big project is not something that can be bought, and the other party will definitely not be able to sell it for a while.
In addition, I have also looked for the person in charge of each sub-ranch, all of them are from the stone ranch, and the current managers are all within the scope of the investigation. Of course, Hanks's side has already decided. He manages a large ranch dedicated to herding beef cattle. The rest is still something to consider, and we'll have to see how many new ranches I can take. Shi Lei explained his thoughts seriously.
"Well, it's best if you have a spectrum in your heart, so is the money enough to buy a new ranch? You don't have to take out a loan, do you? "Dad turned to the money aspect. When I was in China, my family was fed up with the trouble of loans.
"Hehe, it's definitely enough, most of the prizes from the last win haven't been touched yet. The projects invested in before have also had income, and they will soon be able to return to their capital, and the ranch has also begun to make profits, and soon these investments will bring a lot of profits.
Therefore, the money is absolutely enough, and the investment in buying pasture into livestock is relatively large at the beginning, and it will not take a few years to look back, and these investments can be recovered by relying on the output of the ranch.
We're all from our own family, I'll tell you the truth, do you know how much money the beef cattle can earn this time? I can make a lot of money by selling a cow, pure profit. Shi Lei said triumphantly.
"Huh? A cow earns a thousand? That's okay. My mother said with some interest next to her.
"What's ......" Shi Lei looked at his mother a little speechless, "I'm talking about 10,000 US dollars, my beef is more expensive than Heimao and Du, how can it be that a pound of meat only earns a piece of eight cents, such a big cow only earns 10,000 US dollars, or I said less."
What is the cost of raising black hair, you have to feed it concentrate, you have to find someone to massage it, you have to drink beer, and some of you simply grew up drinking red wine.
I am directly grazing here, and I rely on the others I bought from China, the cheap Maifan stone granules and various herbs, even the cowboys don't use a few, even if they spend some money when buying cattle, it will cost a little more.
So don't compare the profits of those fattened captive cattle to me, I'm pure free-range organic green beef, or prime grade top quality. I said 10,000 or less, I didn't accurately calculate the cost of labor or anything, this profit is just my conservative estimate. Shi Lei explained seriously.
If a cow can only earn 1,000 yuan, Shi Lei is still a proud fart, he has already found a place to cry, the actual cost is really only what Shi Lei said, not to mention how much you sell and how much you make, at least most of them are profits.
"Wow, what else do you want, hurry up and open a new ranch and raise beef cattle, that's all money." Mom said excitedly next to her.
"It's not so easy to say that you can open it, you have to have a plan, or you can earn it for a while just by spending more money to buy a ranch." Dad said calmly next to him. "By the way, how many cattle are sold this time, and is the cattle in the pasture enough?"
"This time, because it is the first batch of supply to be concentrated, a total of about 1,000 beef cattle will be needed before and after all the agreements are completed, and the supply of other things such as milk is much smaller, and it is still enough at present, but the demand for beef is larger, so this must open a new pasture." Shi Lei replied happily.
"That's good, work harder. Don't keep trying to play. In the end, my father still couldn't forget to count Shi Lei, and Shi Lei could only smile helplessly.
Basically, every night's conversation will end with Shi Lei being counted, and today is about the same, Shi Lei went back to the house with Laura to rest.
Early the next morning, when Shi Lei was still in the haze, he was once again slammed on the door by Guoguo and screamed.
"Uncle, crispy noodles, crispy noodles, there are a lot of crispy noodles over there." Guoguo was slamming Shi Lei's door vigorously while shouting vigorously.
"What kind of noodles? There's no crispy noodles here. Do you want to eat? Shi Lei reluctantly dragged himself up from the comfortable quilt, randomly found a tactical outfit that looked similar and put it on, and ran to the door to ask Guoguo suspiciously.
"It's not that I want to eat crispy noodles, although I want to eat them too, but I caught a lot of crispy noodles at the top of the mountain. Hurry up and go, you can just take a look, it turns out that the noodles are really so funny. Guoguo dragged Shi Lei out again, and the target went straight to the artificial lake at the top of the mountain.
Seeing the two big and four small ones in the poultry house, a total of 6 raccoons, Shi Lei finally understood what the crispy noodles in Guoguo's mouth meant.
Because the mass base of the little raccoon is too strong. These raccoons are often referred to as "Crisp Noodles", so it's completely understandable that Guoguo is called that.
In the past, Shi Lei could occasionally see these guys in the pasture, but they were usually in the trees or by the river, and they were not a threat to them. Shi Lei didn't pay much attention to it.
These little guys don't really have a habit of cleanliness, they like to wash and eat when they have nothing to do, but they are used to going into the water to touch a fish. And they are called mysterious thieves, and they usually appear in the second half of the night. During the day, most of the time is just a glimpse.
Anyway, there are seven and eight masters here, these guys can't harm those koi in the backyard of the main house, and Shi Lei didn't deliberately drive them away.
These little creatures who are really loving are surrounded by the dogs in charge of the poultry house, and I don't know what bad things they have done.
Mo Yan saw that Shi Lei was also coming, so he came over to tell him what had happened. There should be a big raccoon into the poultry house to steal eggs, and it is very skillful to let another big raccoon make a sound, first attracting the attention of the dogs, there are too many places, and the number of dogs is not enough, so let them take advantage of this loophole.
However, they did not retreat fast enough for the dogs to catch up, and the fellows lived in a tree hole not far from the poultry house, and they were finally served a pot.
The raccoon in charge of covering had successfully escaped, but after seeing that the other little raccoons were surrounded, the big raccoon ran back to try to rescue them, and finally saw that there was no way out, so he simply bravely blocked in front of the little raccoons.
"Uncle, that big raccoon is so brave, don't blame them, anyway, there are so many eggs here, it doesn't matter how many noodles you eat." When Guoguo saw that the eyes of the gentlemen were full of innocence and pity, especially after hearing the expression of the big raccoon, she relented and began to help them intercede with Shi Lei.
"But it's not right for them to steal eggs, and they have to be punished." Shi Lei pretended to be angry and said, he couldn't let Guoguo feel that as long as he pleaded, he would be fine with any mistakes.
In fact, Shi Lei will not do anything to these raccoons, it is not a good habit to hurt wild animals casually, there is no way to meet those coyotes before, and they cannot be allowed to threaten the livestock of the pasture.
"Then Guoguo doesn't eat eggs for a week, so I'll feed them my eggs, okay? Uncle, let them go. Guoguo pitifully put forward his opinion.
"Well, how can you not eat eggs, you have to supplement nutrition, otherwise you won't grow big. Since you've said so, then Uncle should let them go. Shi Lei touched Guoguo's head and was very pleased with her understanding.
"But as punishment, I'm going to turn them into fruit-bearing pets, don't you think it's okay?" Shi Lei said to Guoguo with a smile.
"Okay, okay, the noodles look so cute." Guoguo jumped for joy. (To be continued......) R527
