Director Wang Wei and Director Yu of the Credit Cooperative, who greeted him in the county, scolded Long Hao, saying that he had given so much money and helped deal with so much mutton and clear oil, and he didn't even say a word of thanks.

Long Hao smiled and said that you are all parents and officials, no matter how much you help, you should do it, because it is a responsibility and an obligation. The northern provinces are different, there is no such responsibility, let alone this obligation, and we must be thankful. Moreover, the northern province is so large, has such a large population, and is also adjacent to the border, this is an opportunity in the future, of course, it will have to penetrate step by step.

In the laughter and scolding of everyone, Long Hao left the county seat and stepped on the vast grassland.

The savannah is very different from the Loess Plateau. Endless verdant greenery, with half-man-high thatch everywhere. The breeze blew up waves, showing a group of cattle and sheep, so leisurely, so comfortable, truly interpreting what it means to wind the grass and show cattle and sheep.

In his previous life, Long Hao went to the northern province many times to investigate and study, more for tourism, went to many places, learned to dance grassland dance, and sang grassland songs. He knew it wasn't the best place yet, but it was refreshing enough.

In fact, this is a sandy area, and you can see the sand dunes in the distance, and in winter and spring, it is also covered with yellow sand, and many times you can't open your eyes. It's just that the grass is overgrown in this season, and the sand is not visible in most places, and the view is very charming.

The county called the northern province, and the leaders of the regional industrial and commercial bureau came early to greet them with the heads of several cashmere sweater factories.

When they saw the slogan hanging in front of the convoy, the leaders of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau were very happy, and the heads of several cashmere sweater factories were also very happy. These men on the grassland held fine wine, danced, and sang cheerful greeting songs.

Just bought some mutton and oil, and then donated a little money before, and got such high praise, how can you not be happy? For them, Long Hao, a man who knows how to repay his kindness, is his relatives, and he must greet these relatives like he marries his daughter-in-law.

Long Hao was also very happy, and took the toast of the grassland man and drank it all. He drank bowl by bowl, danced and sang with the grassland men, and as for selling mutton and clear oil, he had long since left it behind.

When someone gives a drop of water, they return a spring, this is the character of a grassland man. Long Hao gave them such high praise and let so many people see it, even the provincial TV station heard the news and took a lot of shots, these men were so happy to receive Long Hao and his party with the highest standard.

Roasted whole sheep with fine wine, and beautiful grassland sisters danced together, for three days and three nights.

Long Hao didn't know how many times he got drunk. Every time he got drunk, he slept on the kang in the yurt. Wake up and eat a few pieces of roast lamb, drink a pot of milk tea mixed with fried rice cheese, and continue to drink in a large bowl.

When he had had had his heart's content, he stood up and danced with the prairie girl.

The grassland girl was very enthusiastic, dancing with Long Hao generously, and also doing some difficult movements. During this period, bumps and bumps were inevitable, and the grassland girls all smiled and didn't care.

But Long Hao was a little distracted. Indulge in singing, keep dancing with the prairie girl, and specialize in those difficult movements. Anyone can see that he is a drunkard, not in the wine, but in the mountains and rivers. However, no one cared, let alone discouraged.

Everyone is happy, how happy it is.

The grassland girl sensed Long Hao's thoughts, but she became more enthusiastic and unrestrained. In her opinion, this sturdy man has a man's smell on him, which is particularly strong.

She loves the taste and longs to have it.

As for whether the other party is married or not, whether he has a girlfriend, he doesn't think about it at all. It's over eighty years old, who cares about that?

However, nothing happened.

The reason is a toast song by the Prairie Girl. A bowl full of spirits, in the passionate and heroic singing, was poured into the stomach by Long Hao in a few sips.

According to the heroism of the past, he can pour it in one bite. But today, when people are singing, they are doing the east, and they have to follow people's etiquette and drink all the wine. If you drink it in one gulp, you will have to have a bowl, or even several bowls, and even the barrel may not be able to hold it.

After a bowl of wine, Long Hao, who had been drunk several times, fell down again. The prairie girl helped him up to the kang and continued to sing and dance, trying to wake him up and regain his majesty. But he couldn't hear anything, and fell asleep on the kang until dawn.

slept until noon, and Long Hao slowly woke up. He opened his eyes, looked at the people around him, and touched his swollen head, feeling embarrassed.

The sheep and clear oil had already been sent, and the convoy also went back, leaving only one car to wait for Long Hao and the others.

Some impatient grassland men killed the sheep on the same day, and made large pieces of meat according to the customs of the grassland, and some made them into roasted whole sheep. They found it more delicate than the sheep on the grassland, and there was no smell at all, which was a different flavor compared to the sheep on the grassland.

They are even more praising the clear oil, because there is not much flax growing in the grasslands. I am very satisfied with the smell of such a mellow clear oil, and it is relatively cheap.

Compared with the Loess Plateau, materials are more scarce on the grassland, and prices are naturally higher. It is basically a pastoral area, with a large area and a sparse population, many of which are nomadic, and there is no output except cattle and sheep.

Unlike the Loess Plateau, most of the area is dominated by agriculture, and only some areas near the northern provinces are semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral. Therefore, the materials are relatively abundant, and the prices are relatively cheaper.

Later, most of the herdsmen on the grassland settled down, and gradually developed some irrigated land, and the materials were gradually enriched, and the prices were almost the same as those on the Loess Plateau.

This protracted banquet also produced another result, which surprised Long Hao and was overjoyed.

After the workers of several cashmere sweater factories brought back the mutton and clear oil, many people invited their relatives and friends to come and taste it. So these relatives and friends also wanted to order mutton and clear oil, and the results spread ten, ten, and hundreds, and quickly spread in the vast grasslands.

Of course, there's a lot of camaraderie in that. These men on the Loess Plateau are so bold and upright, of course, they should be warmly recommended to their relatives and friends.

And so another three or five thousand sheep were ordered. The time is too tight to count the exact numbers, and it doesn't need to be so accurate, and many families need three or five or more. Anyway, there is no shortage of sheep at home, it doesn't matter how many more or less, the important thing is to change the taste and eat another kind of mutton.

The amount of clear oil has also been set some, and the number cannot be counted for the time being, but it will only be more than now. And like a sheep, you can digest a little more.

Long Hao was grateful, and immediately wanted to toast the grassland man. The steppe men refused, saying that you never drink like this over there, especially in the mountains, you rarely drink alcohol a year, and you can't drink anymore.

They don't want to lose their best friends, and they don't want to lose their pure friendships.

Long Hao followed his friend's advice and didn't drink anymore, to be honest, he couldn't drink anymore, otherwise he really couldn't stand it. He invited his friends to visit the mountains in their spare time, and he must entertain his friends with the best mutton, and at the same time, he also invited his friends to visit the mountains and give ideas to the mountains, so that the things in the mountains can go out of the mountains, and the people in the mountains can also go out of the mountains.

He also apologized to his friends on the prairie for not being able to buy sheep from the prairie. First, the mountains are too poor, although sheep are raised, but rarely eat mutton, many people have not eaten mutton for several years, all the sheep are sold, and the sheep on the grassland are not easy to pull.

More importantly, protected species. The sheep in their area are unique breeds, which are only found at the junction of the Loess Plateau and the prairie, including all of Zhendong County, as well as parts of several counties and districts near Zhendong County. There is no other place to find this variety, it is very valuable, and the overall number is not large.

Long Hao wants to protect this variety, especially the purity of this variety, and cannot be mixed with any other variety.

At that time, except for a few experts and scholars, most people, including many decision-makers, were not aware of the protection of breeds. The common people do not have this consciousness anymore, how to make money, how to come, as for what varieties to protect, it is unheard of, and they will not support it.

Long Hao patiently explained to his friends on the grassland. Although these friends listened to him in a fog, they still respected his opinion and understood his approach.

As for the grassland sheep that appeared in Longjiayuan, Long Hao was not worried. They are all lambs, they have no reproductive ability, they can only eat meat, and then they produce wool, and goats can also produce cashmere. If there are breeding rams and ewes, then you have to find a way, you have to dispose of them, and if they have been bred, they have to be dealt with completely.
