Chapter 288 Small Tailed Han Sheep
Chapter 288 Small-tailed Han Sheep
While several people were eating, Yang Guochun suddenly asked: "Mr. Cao, when you come to Fengning County to set up a ranch, do you only consider raising grassland red cattle?"
The small-tailed Han sheep we have here is a new breed developed in recent years. It is a breed of sheep that can be used both for meat and fur.
It has the characteristics of rapid growth, early maturity, strong fecundity, stable performance and genetics, and strong adaptability. It has been designated as a famous livestock breed by the country and has been included in the "National Livestock and Poultry Genetic Resources Protection Catalog."
Cao Chunyuan went to Fengning County to set up a grassland ranch. The most important project was the grassland red cattle. Her Phoenix space also had chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry, as well as the small-tailed Han sheep that Yang Guochun just mentioned.
She did have the idea of raising other livestock at the same time, but she had no experience in raising livestock, and it was her first time to cooperate with Yang Guochun, so she didn't have the nerve to make too many demands.
Yang Guochun took the initiative to mention Little Tail Hanyang, which actually helped Cao Chunyuan open up the conversation.
Cao Chunyuan smiled slightly and said: "Director Yang, I was just going to tell you about this. You also know that I have an agricultural research center in my hands.
Our Agricultural Research Center not only cultivates various crops, but also breeds various livestock. I have cultivated two of our local specialty breeds, grassland red cattle and small-tailed Han sheep.
I have a group of small-tailed Han sheep with better quality, and I am hesitating whether to expand their breeding like the prairie red cattle."
"oh!"
Hearing this, Yang Guochun put down the milk tea cup in his hand and looked at Cao Chunyuan very seriously.
"I have heard before that the prairie red cattle you developed not only have better meat quality, but also the quality of the cow's milk is higher. Could it be that the small-tailed Han sheep you mentioned have similar effects?"
Cao Chunyuan nodded and said, "That's true, so I'm a little hesitant about setting up a small-tail Han sheep ranch."
Yang Guochun stroked his thick curly beard and fell into deep thought. After about three minutes, he turned to look at Cao Chunyuan.
"Mr. Cao, I know your strength, but I really want to see the more excellent prairie red cattle and small-tailed Han sheep you mentioned with my own eyes.
I wonder when you can bring the prairie red cattle and small-tailed Han sheep over?
How many cattle and sheep do you have over there? I can help you build a factory based on the size of your livestock."
Cao Chunyuan knew that this was Yang Guochun's test. The data she gave related to the size of the grassland that Yang Guochun approved for her. If she reported a larger amount, Yang Guochun would definitely approve more land for her.
After Cao Chunyuan hesitated for a moment, she said: "I now have 5,000 grassland red cattle and small-tailed Han sheep."
"How many?"
Yang Guochun suddenly raised his voice, which scared Cao Chunyuan's heart. Looking at the uncertain expression on Yang Guochun's face, Cao Chunyuan didn't know if she said too much or too little.
Her Phoenix Space has the function of accelerating time. One day is equal to 24 days in the outside world, and one month is equivalent to two years in the outside world.
If she relies on the Phoenix Space to breed livestock, given one year, she can breed millions or even tens of millions of prairie red cattle.
It's just that in order not to be too abrupt, she didn't go overboard.
Cao Chunyuan blinked and asked in a low voice: "Is 5,000 heads too few?"
Hearing this, Yang Guochun instantly darkened his face. Ninety percent of Fengning County is woodland and grassland, and most residents make a living by grazing. However, relatively large pastures only breed 1,000 to 2,000 sheep and several hundred cattle.
That's all.
The reproduction speed and value of sheep cannot be compared with that of cattle. If Cao Chunyuan said she had 5,000 sheep, Yang Guochun would not be surprised. But when Cao Chunyuan said she had 5,000 cattle, he was really surprised.
"Mr. Cao, do you really have 5,000 prairie red cattle?"
This time, Cao Chunyuan understood that she didn't just say too little, but said too much.
In fact, she has more than 5,000 prairie red cattle, she has more than 6,000, nearly 7,000 prairie red cattle. But she had previously promised Yinli Dairy CEO to use 1,000 prairie red cattle in exchange for dairy production equipment and production technology.
That's all, she should have said more!
Cao Chunyuan scratched her head in embarrassment and said: "Director Yang, you also know my relationship with Academician Pei. I have actually learned how to breed grassland red cattle from Academician Pei a long time ago, so I was able to accumulate 5,000 grassland red cattle."
Hearing this, Yang Guochun nodded with sudden realization. The grassland red bull breeding plan was proposed by Academician Pei Shaorong. Cao Chunyuan and Pei Shaorong have such a good relationship, so it makes sense to breed more grassland red bulls.
He glanced at Cao Chunyuan with great envy and said, "Academician Pei is a senior I respect very much. She came to Fengning County once in 1989, and I was lucky enough to meet her."
This time it was Cao Chunyuan who was surprised. She had just used the big boss Pei Shaorong as a shield, but she didn't expect that Pei Shaorong had actually come to Fengning County.
But considering that Fengning County was once a grassland red cattle breeding area, it is a normal thing for Academician Pei Shaorong to come to inspect the work.
"Haha, Academician Pei is indeed a very respectable senior. We will soon cooperate to cultivate new hybrid rice."
Yang Guochun had just seen Cao Chunyuan's news on the news a few days ago and knew that Cao Chunyuan's scientific research center had developed cold-resistant rice with a yield of up to 485 kilograms per mu.
He thought this was already a very powerful scientific research result. He couldn't help but feel very curious when he heard Cao Chunyuan said that he wanted to cooperate with Pei Shaorong.
"Mr. Cao, can you please explain in detail?"
Cao Chunyuan waved her hands with a smile and said: "We are all our own people, what can't we say? Didn't I cultivate a cold-resistant rice with a yield of 485 kilograms per mu before? Then I thought that the number 485 kilograms is not auspicious.
It would be great if we could breed hybrid rice with a yield of more than 1,000 kilograms per mu.
Then I found Academician Pei and discussed with her to cross-breed my cold-resistant rice with her hybrid rice to try to breed hybrid rice with a higher yield per acre."
Yang Guochun nodded very seriously. The reason why he wanted Cao Chunyuan to invest in Fengning County was not only because Cao Chunyuan could bring them profits.
Also, Cao Chunyuan has a very good reputation in the outside world. She leads the villagers to grow rich and engages in agricultural research to develop high-yielding rice.
Therefore, he welcomes outstanding businessmen like Cao Chunyuan to invest in Fengning County!
In the past, he had only heard various rumors related to Cao Chunyuan, but those rumors were not as good as the actual communication between him and Cao Chunyuan. After the two had a face-to-face conversation, he found that Cao Chunyuan was indeed serving the local villagers and agricultural scientific research as the rumors on the Internet said.
Made a great contribution.
For a time, Cao Chunyuan's image in Yang Guochun's heart rose again.
"Haha, most of today's businessmen only care about money. There are too few people like you, Mr. Cao, who are willing to spend a lot of time on scientific research.
I suggest you choose a piece of land each in Yangmuzhazi Township and Xiaobazi Township to build a grassland red cattle pasture and a small-tailed Han sheep pasture."
