Although Wei Da and Wang Ye fell in love with the new game, he drove the motorboat in the river behind his home every day; The two of them are really unreliable, although the river is relatively narrow and not very convenient to speed up, but these two guys will still try to speed up when they find the opportunity, and they often fall into the water because of lack of experience, which is the virtue of the soup chicken.

"It's still not good, balance is in the past, but you can't turn corners, especially sharp turns, it's almost like falling into the water." The two chickens tied the motorboat to the dock and swayed towards their home; As for the white eyes of Angela and Emma who were sitting on the lawn chatting, they had seen too much now so they didn't care, anyway, this is the treatment they have been getting a lot lately.

"Angela, I'll teach you when my skills improve. Now I am still raising the baby with peace of mind, Wang Ye and I are suffering for you. Wei Da didn't feel cheeky at all, he was talking proudly, he and Wang Ye seemed to have a lot of fun, and he and Wang Ye worked hard to learn to drive a motorboat every day for Angela and Emma.

"I just got a call that there is a large ranch in Brickenridge for sale, 23,000 acres, and the price is 17 million. I asked them to send the information to the mailbox, and I thought it was good. But you go and see, I don't really know much about this, I think maybe I can take a look. Angela was very leisurely drinking afternoon tea, and she also took care of things a little while Weida and the others went out to play, such as answering the phone.

Weida nodded in understanding, and Brickenridge and Abilene still bordered. It is northeast of Abilene. Wei Da felt that it was good, the 23,000-acre ranch was really large, although the price was 17 million. But you can still pay back the price a little. However, Wei Da estimates that the pasture here may be of average soil quality or space that can be used for grazing, otherwise it will not be directly priced at more than 10 million.

But Wei Da really didn't care, because he knew that as long as the ranch could be used for grazing, it would be worth it if the space was about 20,000 acres; As for the soil quality, it doesn't really matter much, as long as it's not too bad, it can still be used to grow grass, so you don't need to worry about the soil at all. In fact, about 17 million acres of 23,000 acres of pasture is really not particularly expensive, and this price also shows that the soil quality here is still okay.

The direct stream near the Brazos River passes through the pastures and there is a small lake next to it. It is a lake over twenty acres; This made Weida feel unexpectedly surprised, this is not at all to worry about the water source, and even because this small lake Weida can start some aquaculture.

Wei Da felt that in fact, if it wasn't for the fact that his house was built now. It is definitely more interesting to build a villa on the lake, when it is not a small yacht or a small wooden boat, when the time comes, the large yacht can have fun, and it is also possible to fiddle with the motorboat. It's just that it's not bad now. Behind the house is the creek. It's also playable; As for some places with a good environment, there are too many places, anyway, my home is very good now.

And it's also important that it's closer to Angela's parents' house; If you move too far, it will be inconvenient for Angela's mother's family. So Wei Da is still very satisfied, he thinks that other places may be good, but his home is really good now, completely satisfied.

Wei Da was looking through the information of the ranch, and he was basically satisfied; Although there is a small place here is a hill with mixed trees. There are also some places where desertification is more serious, but Wei Da feels that this is more in the past. It's still worth taking down. Although the land that is difficult to develop further has been divided into pastures, which may not seem very easy to manage, it is not a big problem, as long as you can grow grass and raise cattle.

"Dad, come with me to Bridgeridge today, I'm going to see a ranch over there, and I'm going to take it down." Seeing that his father got up in the morning and drank milk and ate breakfast, Wei Da hurriedly said; My father, who can't stay idle, now prefers to go out to herd cattle, although the craft is relatively rusty, but he is also a cowboy.

"Go see the ranch? How far is Bridgeridge, if I don't go for a day or two, I'll still be comfortable at home. "Wei Guanghui is still quite obsessed with the land, and it is naturally no problem to go and see it, but if he goes for a few days, it will still be forgotten; It's certainly not very convenient to go for too long, eat well and sleep well at home, and it's not restricted.

"A little over an hour's drive is more than enough, but it may take us a while to investigate, and we may not be back until the afternoon. How's that, let's go for a spin. There are more than 20,000 acres over there, with lakes and mountains. Wei Da introduced, "Give me some advice, this matter is quite important, brainstorming." ”

"Okay, I'll take a look, it's pretty close anyway. If you take that ranch down, it's really pretty powerful, twice as big as our current ranch. I think it's better to buy some land if you spend your money to buy a boat or a car, and there are more cattle in the pasture now, otherwise it will have a big impact on the grass. Wei Guanghui now has a better understanding of the operation of the ranch, so he also feels that he really needs some land now.

Angela, the pot-bellied woman, still has to stay at home, this is not a trip, and the investigation actually still needs to be bumpy everywhere, which is definitely not very convenient for Angela, the big-bellied woman. However, this time the delegation is still sufficient, my father followed the past, and Wang Ye, who was bored at home, also set off with his father, anyway, there are not too many things to do at home, and it is convenient to go back and forth, so it is good to go and join in the fun.

Buying a large ranch is a matter that requires a long period of preparation and requires serious investigation.

I looked at the pattern of the ranch and basically did not deviate much from the data; Aside from the places that are not suitable for pasture, Weida feels that there are still about 20,000 acres of land suitable for growing grass. It's just that Weida is a little dissatisfied with the quality of the soil, although it doesn't seem that planting grass needs to be too particular. But the soil here is still a bit drier. Wei Da felt that the price of 17 million was unreasonable, because the irrigation system here can be said to be quite dilapidated and backward, which requires a large amount of follow-up capital investment.

"It doesn't seem to be very good. I think the mud is a little sandy. Although Wang Ye does not run a ranch, he still has some eyesight, followed Wei Da several times, and watched Wei Da observe the soil again and again, Wang Ye also looked at it slightly, and the result was not satisfied.

"I'm also having a headache right now, and the average price of pasture is 12,301 acres. I don't want to take advantage of anything now. Although the quality of this ranch is very average, it is the price. I'll see if it's better to pay a little more budget, it's too difficult to buy a 20,000-acre ranch for more than 10 million. I still don't look down on such poor pastures. Wei Da also shook his head a little, although Texas has the largest animal husbandry in the United States, but there are indeed too many ordinary pastures here, which Wei Da can't look down on.

"Then you're going to have to hurry. Your pasture seems to be a little too dense with cattle. Be careful of hurting the grass, I'm afraid that your grass won't grow at all. "The pasture situation in Weida is indeed relatively serious, the cattle eat a lot of food, if you don't find a new pasture in time now, then it is very likely to hurt the grass roots.

"I still don't believe it, I can't afford cheap pastures, so I can't afford to pay more. I've now budgeted for more than 20 million, so that's pretty much it. Not the best ranch, but never the worst. I'm not going to be able to shrink my clothes and diet for a while. , anyway, don't worry about drought in winter. "Weida was hit, even though he had a high quality pasture; But that doesn't mean that high-quality grass can grow in sandy soil, so it's better to pay more.

I set off in high spirits, but the result was full of depression and frustration. Wei Da felt that he really couldn't be stingy, he really needed a bigger ranch, and it was urgent. While the calves are not fully grown up now, and now that autumn is here to recuperate, it is time to hurry.

Raise your budget, so that the choice is bigger; More than 20 million to buy more than 20,000 acres of pasture, which can be said to be the average price of the market. Wei Da felt that this was acceptable to him, even a little more expensive; It pays off, although this will make him have a lot of financial pressure.

Since the budget was raised, Weida also quickly got the information of several good ranches; In fact, as long as the price is right, then there is a lot of room to choose from. Although Wei Da was not so picky, he felt that the information of the three ranches in his hand was still very reliable.

Aside from the fact that the ranch was too far away and inconvenient to manage, this time Wei Da's eyes were focused on the ranch in Mineral Well City, which was almost a two-hour drive away. twenty-one thousand acres, near the main stream of the Brazos River; Although the irrigation system is relatively average, the soil quality here is very good, and the area is relatively flat, so it can be said that it can be completely developed for cattle breeding.

Although the offer is not low, Wei Da is still very satisfied; This is the ranch he newly purchased, the ranch of more than 20,000 acres was acquired, plus he now has about 10,000 acres of ranch in his hand, a total of more than 30,000 acres of ranch is really not small. Although it is not as good as some super big landlords, Wei Da feels that he can be satisfied now.

For $24 million, Weida won the new ranch; This also reassured Simon Sr. that he needed to start thinking about the development of a new ranch.

There are a lot of seeds of pasture grass in hand, and the foundation of this pasture is good; So I started planting grass while improving the irrigation system. Of course, it is also necessary to transport some cattle in a hurry, which is the most important thing. Transporting more than 1,000 of those mature bulls is basically a great joy.

Because the quality of these mature males is relatively stable, and because they are basically sent to the slaughterhouse, there is no need to worry too much about the quality of these 'low-quality' pastures. The calves still need high-quality pasture so that they can grow better.

Now Weida can also let go, although the grass in the new pasture has just been planted, but it will take about half a year to achieve initial results. With more than 30,000 acres of pasture in hand, Wei Da felt that he could now continue to expand the number of cattle, at least 10,000 heads.

This is still a relatively large project, and it is also a relatively dense stocking density in comparison; But it doesn't matter, because it is raised from calves, because there is still more than half a year to serve as a buffer. Anyway, with the ranch in hand, Weida doesn't need to be nervous. (To be continued......)
