Chapter 2126 The introduction of cattle breeds that caused a sensation in the Stampede
The place where Old Orson hosted a banquet for Li Han and his entourage was located in Orson Manor, which was several times larger than St. Andy Manor. It could even be called Castle Manor, a manor castle that had been built for more than a hundred years.
"These are some of the best estates in Texas," Lingna said.
"The light estate is worth more than 200 million US dollars."
“It’s really good.”
Li Han said with a smile, "I like the atmosphere here."
"Grandpa Orson."
Little Dudu has been thinking about snacks and has lost interest in the big castle and manor.
"It seems, Han, Orson has a lot of plans for you." Lingna said with a smile.
Old Orson actually greeted me at the second door in person. Although it was not considered a front door, this courtesy was a bit too much.
"You're too polite."
Li Han hurriedly stopped the carriage, got out of the car and walked over quickly, saying.
"The juniors inside are talking about something, and I have some free time, so I came out to greet you, Pandora. I prepared the best snacks today." Orson said with a smile like an ordinary old man.
"Hee hee, Pandora eats two slices of barbecue at noon, and her stomach is empty, so she can eat a lot of snacks." The little man patted his belly and said.
"Haha, okay."
"Sir, it's time to invite the guests into the house." The butler reminded in a low voice.
"Yes, yes, come in and talk."
"BBQ?"
Little Dudu shouted as soon as he walked into the small yard behind the manor.
"Grandpa Orson is back."
"I'd like to see the people Grandpa Orson personally greets."
"Delina, your barbecue seems to be for entertaining guests."
Dai Lina, the young barbecue master, waited for Li Han and his party to walk into the yard.
The four or five young people here were slightly startled. Why are there so many young people and children?
Dai Lina did not expect to meet Li Han and others so soon.
Delina smiled and said to the people around her. "Help me take a look. I'll go over."
"Delina, you know the person who came."
"Yes, two barbecue chef friends." Delina said with a smile.
"Barbecue chef?"
Several young people looked puzzled. Grandpa Orson went to pick up some barbecue masters. This is impossible. Delina is known as the youngest barbecue master. She didn't see grandpa, so she went out to greet him.
Li Han was also a little surprised. There were only a few young people in the small yard, and the barbecue was done by Delina the day before yesterday. This was really a coincidence.
"Han, Pandora, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon."
"yes."
Li Han said with a smile.
"Sister, are you having a barbecue?"
The little Dudu blinked his big eyes and asked.
"yes."
"You know each other, that's even better. Little Delina, help me greet Han, Pandora and Grandpa. Grandpa is ready to have snacks." Orson looked kind and held Dudu in one hand and the baby in the other, leading Ma
Leah, just like an ordinary old man.
Several young people looked at Li Han and his group with surprised expressions. "Are these people really barbecue masters?"
"Absolutely not."
Li Han originally thought it was a large cocktail party, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a family dinner, and several young people were the grandchildren of Orson.
The current owner of Orson Ranch hurried back ten minutes before the family dinner started. "Things may be beyond my expectations." Lingna whispered.
Unexpectedly, the current owner of Orson Ranch came back in a hurry.
After dinner, Old Orson left with Dudu and a few other people. Delina accompanied Jennifer and others, and the owners of Orson Ranch, Jonathan Orson and Li Han, came to the bar.
Jonathan opened a bottle of red wine and poured two glasses. Li Han took a glass and sat down. Old Orson had just mentioned to Li Han that Orson Ranch wanted to introduce Hank cattle.
"How many will be introduced in the first batch?"
Li Han picked up the wine glass and asked.
"Five hundred head." Jonathan actually doesn't want to import Hank cattle. Orson cattle have always been good in the Texas market.
Old Orson and Jonathan have discussed that the advantage of Hank cattle over Orson cattle is that they can enter the high-end market, not only in Texas, but also in the entire United States, and even in large markets such as Europe and Asia and China.
Orson cattle can only live in one place, which is extremely detrimental to the development of Orson ranch.
Li Han thought for a while, five hundred breeding cattle, one hundred thousand US dollars, it would cost fifty million US dollars. However, these are not too much for Orson Ranch. "Five hundred Hank breeding cattle, I
Need to ask."
"Saint Andy Farm just introduced 500 breeding cattle from Hank Farm some time ago," Li Han said.
Jonathan, unexpectedly, Li Han started to hold it and frowned slightly. "Three months."
"no problem."
Li Han smiled and nodded.
On the way back, Natalie kept mumbling, "Han, you are so lucky."
"This is not luck."
Li Han said, "Five hundred breeding cattle and US$50 million are actually not much."
"That's not much."
Natalie felt that this was simply a sky-high price.
"This is the first time that Hank cattle have sold cattle on such a large scale."
Li Han said. "Compared to Wagyu cattle, five hundred head are worth more than this."
Hank cattle need to gain a reputation and need large ranches like Orson.
The next day, San Andy Farm and Orson Ranch reached a cooperation, and the news that San Andy Farm would provide Orson Ranch with 500 Hank breeding cattle within three months exploded like a bombshell.
Hundreds of ranches and farmers were surprised and couldn't believe that this was true. "The news that Orson Ranch purchased cattle from San Andy Farm is really true. Orson cattle are the best cattle in Texas."
One of the species."
"Yes, in this livestock competition, Osen cattle won the overall first place, and St. Andy Farm only won the second place."
"Hank Bull, is there anything strange about it?"
"Taste, I think of it, Hank's Beef is the only one that has reached the highest level of excellence in the taste evaluation."
St. Andy's Farm is famous. In the barbecue area, the St. Andy's Farm barbecue cart is surrounded by many cowboys.
Tasting Hank's Beef has become an essential ritual for participating in this Stampede.
As more and more people are attracted to it, especially gourmets and barbecue masters, Delina is one of them. "This is Hank's beef, God, this is the most delicious beef I have ever eaten from Wagyu beef."
"No wonder Old Orson would choose Hank's Beef. Compared to Hank's Beef, Orson's Beef is a grade lower." Delina muttered in her heart. The cunning old Orson had done something admirable.
It takes a lot of courage to resolutely give up Orson beef and choose Hank beef, but Delina feels that it is a wise thing to do. Hank beef may still have a long way to go before it is famous like Wagyu beef.
But the taste alone is almost the same, which is surprising.
Gourmets expressed their feelings one after another, and beef comparable to Wagyu appeared.
This is the front page headline of the Houston Food Newspaper the next day, "San Andy Farm, with its Hank Cow, really became famous at the Stampede."
"Boss, there's not enough beef."
On the third day, there was a shortage of beef in the barbecue truck, and Li Han was helpless. "Reduce the barbecue time, and I must persist for two more days."
"I'm going to see if I have any extra beef in my barbecue truck."
Li Han said.
In fact, Li Han used a lot of beef in the past two days. Fortunately, there was still some space. Li Han took nearly two hundred pounds from the space and put it in the barbecue truck. "No, this much is not enough for two days."
"Turn off both cars first."
Li Han said.
"Yes, boss."
"Han, what's wrong? Why did the car drive away?" Natalie muttered.
"Not enough beef."
Li Han smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect there to be so many people."
"Han, look at the newspaper," Natalie said with a smile. "You'll understand."
“Comparable to Wagyu beef?”
Li Han smiled bitterly. "These people really write whatever they think of."
"Isn't this great? Besides, Hank's beef tastes really good, not worse than Wagyu beef." Natalie said. "I promise, Hank's beef is really delicious."
"I also know that Hank's beef is not inferior to Wagyu beef, but now, in terms of reputation, Hank's beef is far inferior to Wagyu beef. Writing like this, I don't know how much criticism it will attract."
Li Han said.
Sure enough, the next day, many city newspapers and media began to ridicule the Houston Food News, saying that Hank's Beef was not well-known, and many people had not even heard of beef. Talking about it was as disdainful as talking about beef.
