Chapter 506: Buying and Packing
The two had already reached an image in a simple chat, and for Holjim, this annoyance was solved. This piece of sadness he really didn't want to stay, and took his daughter back to his hometown to live and heal.
Jessie Chou was also very satisfied with this farm, and turned his head to Atwood and said: "The stream farm is indeed very good, the old man still looks so sharp." Hehehe......" He laughed as he spoke.
The old cowboy is also very useful for this sycophant-like language, it is human nature to like beautiful things, and it is no exception to like to be complimented. Anyway, this thing is not valuable, and Jessie Chou feels that it can be used vigorously.
Atwood paused for a moment and asked, "Boss, do you plan to get some of the cattle from Stream Farm?" He was a little careful, because it was a big expense. If you really want to buy it, the price is no less than if you bought this farm.
At this time, several people walked to the cattle pen, and the rows of cattle pens erected on the grassland. Some of the cattle were divided and locked inside, and this was the beef cattle for Holjim's friends, and now some of them had to be selected first, and their men could be transported away when they came.
After thinking about it for a while, Jessie Zhou nodded, "Well, we have to buy it anyway, I think the beef cattle in Stream Farm look great, you are a professional, and you have been here a few times, what do you think of them?" β
Atwood nodded solemnly, he was already familiar with it after coming here a few times, the boss now has money and interest to buy a farm, of course he has specially investigated. "There is no doubt that the beef cattle at Stream Farm are very good, and I think it's worth spending money on cows and calves that are two years old, and some calves are basically enough."
"Old man, you're trying to empty the essence of Mr. Jim's farm!" Jessie Chou smiled and said, "But I like it!" β
Atwood knows a little bit about his boss's family, and this kind of speechless joke is really what Jesse Chou likes. "Boss, our farm now has more than 20,000 cows and more than 1,500 bulls. With the addition of more than 9,000 calves, of which one-third are bulls, in addition to the current fixed consumption of Western restaurants, there will be a batch of cattle that can be considered for slaughter early next year. β
"We can expand the number of Western restaurants, and it is a serious waste of beef to go to the bull market. As long as the restaurant's reputation is out, so will our beef. Hehe......" Jessie Chou smirked, "At that time, don't talk about the purchase price of $1.25 a pound, I won't give it even the price of 12.5 pounds." β
"We can operate our own production and marketing as one, and according to the price that the farm gives to the western restaurant, a cow will fluctuate between $15 and $20 per pound, regardless of the part. This is an internal price, and others can only get it higher, and the price after removing the cattle can only be more expensive. β
"This beef is for those who want it, and the price increase does not reflect the special nature of our farm! There is a movie in our Celestial Empire that has a sentence that I particularly like. Saying that, Jessie Chou looked at Atwood's expectant eyes and said, "That's 'Don't buy the most haode, only buy the most expensive!'" 'What do you say?' β
Atwood was stunned for a moment, he couldn't understand this kind of nouveau riche idea at all, even in a country where the idea of capital is rampant, the people will not spend money stupidly. "From the seller's point of view, this is definitely a good consumer, but it is not the most haode. It makes me feel like it's a waste to give them beef from our farm! β
"Huh...... Old folks, as long as they give money, these are minor problems! Jessie Chou waved his hand indifferently, the local tyrant nouveau riche or something, he is really the most haode customer of luxury consumer manufacturers.
Looking at this piece of cattle and sheep, Jessie Chou carefully calculated an account. A kilogram is greater than or equal to 2.3 pounds, which means that a pound of beef is 1.15 pounds. It is about 17 US dollars and floats forward, and if it is converted into Celestial Coins, it is more than 100 yuan a catty, which is cheap.
However, this is according to the price at which the whole cow is sold, and even the cow water is also the cow offal, which is the price that Jessie Chou provided to his own Western restaurant.
Although they are all the same boss, the accounts are made separately. In this way, it is clear how much money both sides have earned, whether it is a profit or a loss. A cow on a typical farm is about 1,000 pounds, a female is about 8,900 pounds, and a bull is 1,300 pounds. The weight of the cattle on his farm, of course, is only high, not low.
Jessie Chou sells a cow for about $40,000, and it seems that all he consumes by raising this cow is the cowboys' wages and a pitiful amount of property taxes.
The cattle eat and drink, the farm has its own pasture, and the corn and rice stalks provided in the plantation are also available. Only the basic self-sufficient can meet the needs. Even if there is a feed to buy outside, but the farm itself also sells a part of the grass, this money is really small compared to the money to buy feed, almost negligible.
Jessie Chou folded his fingers and calculated, selling a cow by himself is almost a net profit, one is the cheapest for 20,000 US dollars, ten is 200,000, 100 is 2 million, and 1,000 of your sister is 20 million US dollars. Jessie Chou now has more than 30,000 cows and can produce 10,000 calves a year.
Thousands of cattle can be slaughtered almost a year, and that's when a few cows are left. It's not a problem to buy and sell 10,000 a year. You can get at least $200 million a year by selling cattle. This deducts some capital and can leave a net profit of 200 million US dollars, of course, this is when the tax refund is spent.
Now that he has bought tens of thousands more, this ready-made cow can almost be slaughtered. Even if you can't sell your own farm cattle at such a high price, but the cross-complementarity is a little more complementary, and a pound is worth $15!
He is very confident in his beef. It's not as good as the highest-end Wagyu beef, and it's not as good as the average high-end beef. And speaking of his beef, compared with Wagyu beef, it also has a special flavor, that is, it has a hint of the breath of living water in the space.
It makes ordinary people feel better, and it can cover up the problem of ordinary cattle breeds, which will also make others think that Zhou Jiexi's farm has a special breeding method or uses any special food. In short, safety first, that's what he thinks.
"Alright then, this is decided, you can talk to Jim now, and when Harvey and David and the asset appraisal organization come, we will start the acquisition negotiations after we have an answer." Jessie Chou made a decision directly.
βhaodebossοΌβ Atwood had an excited expression on his face, thinking about how many cattle there were on the same farm, and now after buying these tens of thousands of cattle, the cattle in Sky Farm can almost exceed 50,000. In the future, the number of cattle that can be slaughtered each year may reach 30,000, but considering that the herd needs to be expanded, these can be considered slowly.
Jessie Chou doesn't like that kind of thing to talk about details, so he doesn't discuss anything, or that sentence, professional things are done by professional people. He doesn't want to be a pro-person, the hard-won life in this life is for enjoyment, and it's not the pursuit of tiring and tiring work, sometimes try that it's called bittersweet memories. It's always like this, it's called masochism, and he Zhou Jesse doesn't have a tendency in this regard.
There are also a lot of cowboys in the stream farm, and Jesse Chou, who has come and gone, has seen more than a dozen people, and I don't know how many more are in the pasture in the distance. There are really not many whites among them, only about one-third, and even fewer blacks. The Indians he barely saw. A lot of old Mo in Mexico grazes here. There are also Latinos of the mixed color race, and there are a few of these guys.
"I can't see that this Holjim also likes to save money, these Latinos and Lao Mo are just low wages, which is much more cost-effective than hiring whites and native Americans." Jessie Chou looked at these people and laughed secretly.
It is said that the American people's studio has robbed a lot of the Celestial Empire people, but most of the Celestial Empire people in the United States are middle-class, and they really can't mix with the bottom.
Suddenly, a man riding a horse in front of him, Zhou Jiexi, looked at it and was surprised, it was a yellow-skinned Asian, but I didn't know which country this person was from, he didn't look like the Japanese frustration, and his face looked a bit like a Korean pie face. There are really not many Asians in Meixide County, and a yellow-skinned person under him is not Chinese, and now he suddenly has a little bit of interest when he sees this person Zhou Jesse.
Riding a horse to speed up Zhou Jesse ran up, the Asian was driving a calf out of the cow pen back, and the speed of the calf was controlled with a pull of the rope sleeve lock, and then the man immediately ran over, and quickly pulled the cow to drive the calf back.
Looking at the wonderful process, Jessie Chou couldn't help but clapped his palms, "Hey, man, you look great!" β
The Asian had just seen Jesse Chou, and after glancing at him, the Asian said, "Are you from the Celestial Empire, or from some other country, or a local?" β
Although he was a little confused about how he asked this in the first place, Jessie Chou still replied, "From the Celestial Empire!" β
"Oh, so am I!" When the man heard this, he immediately laughed, and stomped his feet and clapped his hands excitedly! "Hello, get to know me, my name is Du Lei, and I am from Tianchao Jianghuai!"
The man introduced it and stretched out his hand, but before Jesse Chou could shake hands, Saiya stretched out his hand from behind him to shake hands with this person. And Du Leiza was shocked when he saw a furry arm, and then he saw Saiya hiding behind Jesse Chou, just now he really thought it was a supernatural capital.
