Chapter 383: Three hundred and eighty-three, Wang honestly regrets
Most of the land in New Zealand is privately owned, and the Waikato is the country's main pastoral area.
Large farms can be thousands of hectares, and small ones can be tens of hectares.
Most of the farms Wang Laoshi went to were dairy-farms, but there were also some deer, horse and sheep farmers.
Every time I see a different farm and a different pastoral scenery, I really make Wang Laoshi greedy.
Especially in some tourist areas, the construction of pastures is more fascinating, and the delicacy is not like words.
In a ranch run by the brothers, Wang Laoshi really couldn't move.
The house is built halfway up the hill, with the Waikato River in the distance, a short walk up the path to the sea, and behind the house are a series of hills, and behind the mountain there is a small lake, of course, a pond, and a forest by the lake.
The brothers, whose surname is Ji, have been running the 400-hectare ranch for generations.
Many pastures have a history of hundreds or even hundreds of years, and Wang Laoshi can see from the house they live in and the row of towering trees in front of the house that people are not talking nonsense, and the history of this ranch is really not short.
In addition to this ranch, Wang Laoshi also visited another ranch, not big, but the design is unique, the car winds up on the forest path, the winding path leads to the secluded place is a unique house, standing on the backyard balcony, you can see the vast pasture.
There is a pasture, the car has been driving for a long time, and there is no one in sight, there is a lot of flat land, fruit trees, pine trees are scattered, there are groups of cattle and sheep by the stream, and when I see the hostess, people are wearing riding clothes, leisurely walking on the horse.
That picture is really nostalgic.
It's still winter, and if it's summer, you don't know what the beauty will become.
Visited so many farms, can be Wang Laoshi in the heart of the number of countless, Wang Laoshi in a small town rest, met a small couple from the United States, probably because there are too few tourists this season, they saw Wang Laoshi and his party, warmly greeted together to drink a cup of hot coffee.
Wang honestly agreed.
While chatting, the couple asked Wang Laoshi if he was from Huaxia?
Wang honestly said that he was from China.
The two of them suddenly became excited, and they pulled Wang Laoshi to chat, showing off their knowledge of China.
After a long time, this young couple has been to China for vacation, has been to many places, the impression is good, they all have a decent job with a high income, but the character dictates it, the two quit their jobs, and bought a small ranch here with all they have, and lived a leisurely pastoral life.
They invited Wang Laoshi to their ranch to be a guest, and Wang Laoshi thanked them for their hospitality, but he really didn't have time, he made an appointment with another ranch, and he could only miss this opportunity.
In addition, Wang Laoshi also learned that the family only raised a small number of cattle and sheep, and this ranch mainly receives tourists from all over the world.
In such a place, Wang honestly thinks that there is less simplicity and a hint of commercial taste, and from the bottom of his heart, he resists.
Of course, the life of the ranch is not only about the birds and flowers, but also about the hard work to be done, and hard work is a must to really run a ranch.
A very traditional farmer introduced Wang to his life as a farmer.
Generally, you have to get up before five o'clock, and basically in addition to eating and drinking, it is normal to work until four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
There is also a lot of professional knowledge, different feeds should be added in different seasons, and the land should be tested every 2-3 years to determine the composition of the land, so as to choose what fertilizer to add to promote the growth of grass.
There is also the epidemic prevention and disease prevention of cattle and sheep, and it is even more sloppy at all.
There are not many Chinese people here, and Wang Laoshi met a family that immigrated many years ago.
Their pasture is also not large, only about 40 hectares, and it is a pity that Wang Laoshi feels that their pasture is more like a vegetable garden, with few livestock, and the main source of income for the farm is growing vegetables.
Perhaps the income increased, but it destroyed the farm itself and greatly affected the value of the ranch.
In the course of Wang's investigation, he also discovered a rather interesting phenomenon.
In some farms, there are only male owners, and no female hosts, and his conjecture and explanation are probably the same, and very few women are willing to come to the farms to live such a quiet life, either refusing to marry, or just abandoning the family soon after marrying, and they can't bear it.
As a result, the farmer is accompanied only by a TV and a dog. On a farm, Wang Laoshi saw more than a dozen dogs, and the dogs barked incessantly.
This is a matter that needs to be paid attention to, Wang Laoshi didn't plan to take a group of dogs to pursue any spiritual sublimation.
It is also because of this that Wang Laoshi adjusted his goals and preferred a resort farm.
There are other feelings, Wang Laoshi has to admire others.
First of all, mechanization is very high, even if there are thousands of hectares of land, hundreds of cattle, only 2-3 workers need to be hired, mechanization basically replaces traditional workers.
There is also the infrastructure, the road is not wide, but the extension is very humane, as long as there is a family, the road will definitely lead to guò.
Although there are unsatisfactory places, on the whole, the main thing that brings Wang Laoshi is like and shock.
In the past, he thought that the descriptions of scenery in those texts were really exaggerated.
Now that Wang is honestly convinced, the natural scenery of the Waikato is not too much to describe in those flowery words, it is very apt.
When Wang Laoshi finished his investigation, he deliberately stood on a small hill, and when he looked at it, he couldn't help but feel sorry for his own nation.
This thing feels that the time he has traveled through is too boring, if it were a few hundred years in advance, he would definitely turn this place into a small backyard in Huaxia, what a good place!
It's a pity!
That is, if he thinks about it himself, no one really knows how shameless Wang Laoshi is at this time, but he must give Wang Laoshi a thumbs up, at least, his goal is good for his own nation.
At the foot of the mountain, Kipak didn't quite understand what Wang Laoshi's unreliable employer was going to do, anyway, Wang Laoshi was not at all the same as the Chinese people he knew.
The bustling city simply doesn't bother with it.
No modern entertainment venues have taken a single step.
Even in the famous Waikato ~ game, Wang Laoshi has no intention of trying his luck at all.
Walking around these pastures all day long, the scenery is beautiful enough, but Keki Pike and the others are all people who travel from south to north, and they are about to vomit when they see this kind of scenery too much.
They didn't understand how this place could attract Wang Laoshi so much.
Lu Jiancheng walked quickly to the mountain with the phone, his expression a little hesitant.
Wang honestly saw it, and a call came in.
When Lu Jiancheng arrived, Wang honestly asked him, "Whose phone number?"
Vote for it!
