Yang Ying was speechless. She had never been in contact with Han Peacock before, so she didn’t know much about Han Peacock’s strength. Even if Han Peacock won now, Yang Ying didn’t know how Han Peacock won, so she was worried about the James family.╪
╪┝┢┢┞.(《.c〔om
Han Peacock just laughed twice and did not explain anything. He already knew the details of the James family, so naturally he was not afraid of them.
The guy's movements just now were very agile, and he also accepted the first lesson. After changing the cards, he went out and threw away the other cards on his body, so that even if Han Kongque asked for a body search, James would have no problem.
Not to mention, James thought Han Kongque cheated, and the reason why nothing was found the first time, he thought it was Yang Ying and the others who helped, so the second time he directly kicked Yang Ying and the others out of the room, he thought this
It's foolproof, but in the end, Han Peacock still wins.
I think the Japanese and the black man were also on the same team as James, so James must have known their cards, otherwise he wouldn't have been so bold and bet all his ranch on them.
James and the others tried their best, but they couldn't beat Han Peacock. Therefore, even if there were experts in the James family, Han Peacock didn't believe they could beat him.
"Sir, we have now entered our pasture." At this moment, Yang Ying pointed to a wooden sign outside the car.
Han Kongque was stunned and said: "Now we have entered our territory? Jinniu Ranch? What a good name."
Han Peacock looked at the road sign next to him, which said Jinniu Ranch, and thought that his ranch would be called Jinniu Ranch.
Yang Ying said with a smile: "Sir, have you seen that huge bull head? Legend has it that when the Sioux people informed this land, there was a large herd of American bison living here, and the king of this herd was a yellow golden bull.
This golden bull has been guarding its group until the arrival of the white people. In order to protect the group, the golden bull fought many times with the invaders until the herd was surrounded.┝╪.《﹝.c［o
Later, after the James family bought this ranch, they simply changed its name to the Golden Cow Ranch, saying that it was blessed by the Golden Bull. In fact, I think this was a sign of goodwill to the Sioux people. After all, this is the territory of the Sioux people.
"
Han Peacock nodded in agreement: "I think the legend of the golden bull should have been passed down by the Sioux people. Rather than saying that the cattle protect the pasture, it is better to say that the Sioux people protect their living territory."
Yang Ying smiled and said: "I think so too, so I don't think we need to change our name."
Han Kongque said: "Well, after all, there are still a lot of Sioux here, so we won't irritate them. After all, they are all yellow people. However, the entire Jinniu Grassland has been included in the Jinniu Ranch?"
Yang Ying smiled and said: "Yes. How about calling it a big ranch? This is a big ranch. Our ranch occupies the size of nine counties. If it weren't for this road, we could completely encircle this place."
"So big?" Han Peacock opened his mouth, surprised.
Although Han Kongque knew that one million acres was not a small area, he really did not expect that it could actually be compared to nine counties and cities in the country.
It turned out that he just thought it was big, but had no specific concept. Now that Yang Ying used a metaphor, Han Peacock immediately had a general image in his mind.
How big is a county or city in China? How many people can it support?
And his ranch is the size of nine counties and cities. How many people can such a large ranch feed?
"There are many pastures like this in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, South Africa and other countries and regions, and the pastures in these countries are also different. The United States and Argentina are mainly cattle grazing, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa
Mainly raising sheep.┢╪┝═┝┠┡.[(." Yang Ying said.
"Is there such a thing?" Han Kongque had never run a ranch before, so he really didn't know about this situation.
Yang Ying was very interested in seeing the Korean peacock. She immediately said: "Although there are a large number of livestock grazing here, it is very different from traditional nomadic agriculture. The livestock on the large pastures are not the private property of the herdsmen, but the property of the herdsmen."
A commodity sold for sale.
Herders do not bring their families with them, but are employed by the herder as individual workers without any dependents, generally called cowboys or shepherd boys. The large-scale ranching industry is characterized by large-scale production and a high degree of specialization.
In the United States, the livestock grazed on large pastures were cattle. In the early days, they were grazed on government land. Later, because the land with better conditions was sold by the government to farmers for planting crops, the large pastures moved westward, the area shrank, and the demand for
You can only graze after paying rent to the government.
Originally, they were raised with longhorn cattle, which are resistant to rough feeding and cannot lose weight after being driven for long distances. However, their shortcomings are that they are prone to cattle ticks and have poor meat quality. Later, they were raised with European Hayford beef cattle, which were used in feed, etc.
The requirements for feeding conditions are relatively high, so the previous extensive grazing was changed.
Some ranches no longer fatten cattle and send them to slaughter. Instead, they sell them to farms for fattening after they have grown to a certain level. Therefore, in real terms, the American cattle industry is not the most developed, and the best pastures are not.
In Argentina.
In fact, in Argentina, due to the superior vegetation of the Pampas and the proximity to the seaport, large pastures for grazing cattle are more profitable than those in the United States. On the large pastures of Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa, sheep farming plays an important role, and wool production
Its output exceeds half of the world’s wool production.”
"Are you saying that the ranches in the United States are not the best?" Han Peacock asked.
Yang Ying nodded and said: "As long as it can be bought, it is not the best. The best ranch will definitely not be sold by anyone. Even if it is sold, the price is too high. For example, on May 20, 2015, Miami, USA,
Aggoner Ranch sold for a sky-high price.
Aggoner Ranch has 510,000 acres, 170 miles from Dallas, and is larger than New York City. This ranch was sold for a sky-high price of US$725 million. When it was listed, it caused a huge sensation, so
The transaction was successful soon.
The Aggoner Ranch is very large, spanning 6 counties, with hundreds of houses, 20 cowboy camps, hundreds of quarter horses, 7500 cattle, 1200 oil wells and 3000 acres of farmland, so it has attracted many oil tycoons and rich people
With interest, it will naturally be easy to drive up the price.”
"It's not expensive, right? A ranch with more than half a million acres sells for US$725 million. Our Golden Bull Ranch has more than one million acres and only costs US$1.5 billion. The two should be about the same.
?" Han Peacock asked.
Yang Ying shook her head directly and said: "The two ranches are not comparable. Our ranch is actually not worth that much money, because the one near Lake Superior is all swamps, and there is also a large protected forest.
It cannot be used, but only one third of this piece has been lost.
Therefore, there are only more than 700,000 acres that can be used by us, which is not much larger than the aggoner ranch. What's more, the mortgaged ranch must be mortgaged at the highest price. In this way, we don't know how much water is in it. We don't know.
!”
Han Kongque nodded. It seemed that he had suffered a bit of a loss. Just like Yang Ying said, they had a mortgage of 1.5 billion, so the actual value would be over 1 billion.
"Are there any large ranches around? Even if the business conditions are not good, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if the area used by the ranch is not worthy of the name." Han Kongque remembered the purpose of coming here again, so he asked Yang Ying.
It seems that Yang Ying is really good. At least she knows the pastures in the United States very well. It seems that the preparation of catkins is really good. This saves Han Peacock a lot of time.
Yang Ying thought for a while and said: "If we talk about a large ranch, there is indeed one, but the price of that one is higher. That ranch is also considered a large ranch in the United States. After it was listed, many people asked, but what can it really do?
Those who bought it are really not eligible to buy it, because the rancher plans to sell it for US$4.5 billion.”
"So expensive? How big is the area?" Han Peacock was really surprised this time.
"The area is not very large, but he is so famous in the United States. So far, more than 600 people have expressed their intention to buy this ranch, but this ranch cannot be bought with money.
The real estate agent expressed that he hopes to sell to a buyer who has a deep understanding of the spirit of ranching. He also said that the listing of the ranch reflects the decline of the "super real estate class" in the United States and is equivalent to selling the Statue of Liberty in the cowboy culture of the American West.
Like." Yang Ying said sarcastically.
Han Peacock was also a little surprised: "Just because of this, it sold for 4.5 billion US dollars?"
Yang Ying put away her smile and said: "Of course it's not entirely because of this. The large area is a factor. One is the cattle, sheep and horses inside, and the other is its history. This ranch has a history of more than 100 years.
For more than 100 years, this ranch has made outstanding achievements in breeding Hereford cattle, purebred American Quarter Horses and thoroughbred racehorses, so it has become a model in the history of ranching in the world."
Han Peacock nodded and said: "Brand value, historical heritage, and cultural background can be said to be included in this ranch. It is really not easy to buy."
"At least it's not easy for us to buy." Yang Ying said.
Han Peacock also believed that it was impossible for him to buy such an iconic American ranch, so he stopped asking.
"Let's implement it according to our established plan!" Han Peacock turned his head and looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window.
If ranchers in the United States run their business well, their lives will be very comfortable, and at least the environment will be great.
For example, this Golden Cow Ranch is surrounded by green trees. As far as the eye can see, it is green, so even when you breathe, the air seems to be sweet. (To be continued.)
