Although agriculture and animal husbandry do not make huge profits, as the basis of the national economy, the stability of income is still very good. Because the government of any normal country cannot allow agriculture to have too many ups and downs. Otherwise, the entire society will be in chaos.

"By the way, Xiaodong, the cows, sheep, pigs, chickens and ducks on your farm will be ready for slaughter in another month. You have to be prepared! Hundreds of thousands of them will flood into the market at once, which is enough to keep you busy for a while.
It’s time!” Uncle Long said.
"Uncle Long, you know, I'm going to attend the Royal Ascot in England now, and I really don't have time to take care of things on the farm. How about you find me a trustworthy slaughterhouse and agricultural company in Vancouver, the price is cheaper?
It doesn't matter, as long as you can eat all the output from my farm!" Liu Dong said quickly.
"Haha, I knew you were going to say that!" After smiling and giving Liu Dong a slight nod, the old man continued, "Jianguang will come over later. He specializes in doing this. You can tell him then!"
Liu Dong also knew that Uncle Long's son, Long Jianguang, owned an agricultural company and agricultural supplies supermarket chain, with branches in Vancouver and major cities in Columbia.
The reason why he got rid of Uncle Long just now was actually because of Long Jianguang's experience and connections in this area.
Things often happen by coincidence. As soon as they mentioned Long Jianguang, there was the sound of a car outside.
The two of them walked outside and saw Long Jianguang, wearing a black T-shirt, getting out of the Audi car with a beautiful mixed-race girl.
"grandfather!"
When the little girl saw Uncle Long, she ran over as briskly as a light deer. The words "Grandpa" made Long Shule unable to close his mouth!
The favorite thing for people when they get older is to entertain their grandchildren, and Uncle Long is no exception!
Now I saw my favorite little granddaughter, and I couldn’t care about anything at the moment!
"Okay, I won't interfere with the farm matter, you two can talk!" After speaking to Liu Dong and Long Jianguang, the old man took his granddaughter and walked towards the room.
"My dear grandson, do you miss grandpa?"
"I think the almond cake made by grandpa is the most delicious!"
"Haha, you little greedy cat! Come on, grandpa will do it for you again!"
…
Listening to the happy figures of his grandparents walking away, Liu Dong turned around and looked at Long Jianguang, who was approaching, and said, "Brother Long, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
"Yes, it should be almost nine months, right?" Long Jianguang came over and said.
"I remember I came to Vancouver in October last year, and it's been almost nine months now!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
"Go for a walk on the farm?"
"Okay!" Liu Dong didn't refuse Long Jianguang's suggestion!
Afterwards, the two left Uncle Long's small fenced yard and walked into the farm in front!
Unlike Liu Dong's farm, where the first crop of cattle and sheep has not been slaughtered due to construction, Uncle Long's second round of calves, sheep seedlings, and chicken seedlings have already been planted.
It is under the summer sun, and the green grass is dotted with cattle and sheep. The fragrance of the green grass is heard, the breeze blows on the face, and the natural and pure atmosphere makes people especially enjoy it.
Liu Dong felt his mood gradually relax as he strolled through the period.
"How long will it take to come to Vancouver this time?" Long Jianguang asked.
"Maybe I won't be able to stay for a few days before I leave!"
"Leave? Didn't you come here for the ranch?" Long Jianguang paused and said in surprise.
Liu Dong's ranch has 15,000 cows, nearly 20,000 sheep, 100,000 chickens, 50,000 ducks, and no less than 300,000 pigs. Such a huge breeding volume. As a farmer, in Long Jianguang's impression
Liu Dong should be very concerned about this!
But the fact is that Liu Dong never thought about how much money he could make through the farm!
The reason why he bought this farm in the first place was that he longed for a comfortable farm life, where he could come here to relax when he was tired. Secondly, because Uncle Long was also here, it would be nice to visit him when he had nothing to do!
The reason why I later raised so many cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and crops on the farm was simply to prevent it from going to waste after I bought the farm!
This is somewhat related to the fact that Liu Dong was born in a rural area and always has a frugal mentality deep in his heart!
Otherwise, it’s like the rich people in Europe and America. They bought a farm to satisfy their hermit and social needs. They raised a small amount of cattle and sheep, one for food and the other for appreciation! There are very few rich people like Liu Dong.
Same, I will balance playing and making money through the farm!
In Long Jianguang's mind, Liu Dong's visit to Vancouver this time was actually about the slaughter of cattle and sheep on the farm next month. Now it seems that is not the case?
"Before I bought Heifeng last time, I promised Old Jack that I would take Heifeng to attend the Royal Ascot Jockey Club in the UK. Now the time for the Jockey Club is coming soon, so I came here to do it.
Feng's consignment, I just stopped by to see Uncle Long, and I just learned about the farm things by the way!"
After Liu Dong finished speaking, Long Jianguang couldn't help but look surprised.
After reacting, he couldn't help but said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect you still planned to do this!"
"Actually, there is another thing I discussed with Uncle Long just now. Since I don't have much time in Vancouver, I want to leave the slaughtering and trading of cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and pigs on the farm to you, Brother Long.
Take responsibility! After selling the money, I only need the market price, and the rest of the profit will be left to you, Brother Long, what do you think?" Liu Dong said.
"Really?" Long Jianguang said with a hint of joy in his tone.
"certainly!"
Liu Dong's affirmative tone made Long Jianguang feel relieved. He came this time to represent Liu Dong's cattle, sheep and other livestock production. Hundreds of thousands of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep were enough for Long Jianguang's
The agricultural trading company doubled in size and made a fortune!
"Xiaodong, thank you!" Long Jianguang said sincerely.
He knew that if it weren't for his father, the other party would not have given this deal to him so easily!
"Speaking of which, I would like to thank you, otherwise I would have a bad eye on Vancouver's agricultural products market. There are so many cattle, sheep and pigs that I don't know who to sell them to!" Liu Dong said with a smile.
After listening, Long Jianguang did not say any more words of thanks, but just kept this favor in his heart.
After the two of them walked around the farm for a while, Long Jianguang suddenly asked: "Xiaodong, I wonder if you are interested in agriculture and animal husbandry?"
"Agriculture? What do you mean?"
Looking at the doubtful look on Liu Dong's face, Long Jianguang turned to the distant pasture, "One of the biggest differences between China and Canada is that China's per capita arable land is only 14 acres. In Canada, the per capita arable land is more than 20 acres.
!And there is still a large amount of land in Canada that has not been effectively developed because of its sparse population!”
"In addition, the world's population is still growing, but the area of cultivated land is declining due to environmental pollution, soil erosion, and even abandonment caused by war."
"Secondly. With the rapid development of Asian countries, especially the economic development of China, the demand of wealthy people for a prosperous life, first of all for food, is still growing rapidly! In particular, high-end consumption such as beef and mutton is rising linearly!
"
"The consequence of all this is that the world's demand for food, meat and eggs and milk continues to grow, but land output is growing slowly due to various countries' control of agricultural product prices and the decline in the amount of arable land.
, or even declining! Therefore, although the prospects of agriculture and animal husbandry are not as huge as other industries, it can bring us sustained and uninterrupted income!"
Looking at the expectation in the eyes of Long Jianguang who turned around, Liu Dong said thoughtfully: "So, Brother Long hopes that I can invest in agriculture and animal husbandry like you?"
"That's right! In the whole of Canada, agriculture and animal husbandry are the most promising of all industries, and the industry most encouraged by the government! More importantly, although the land here belongs to the government, if we buy it, it will be our own. In the future
It can also be passed on to future generations!”
After hearing this sentence, Liu Dong's expression became silent.
From the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in ancient times to today's modern society, China has a long history, which is rare in the world. But in the history of civilization for more than 5,000 years, two words have always run through it. That is 'land'!
Throughout the ages, almost all peasant uprisings and country changes are related to these two words.
"The rich are connected to each other, while the poor have no place to stand." This sentence can summarize the root of all contradictions in Chinese history.
Therefore, what has been imprinted in the bones of all Chinese people for thousands of years is the possession of land!
If it weren’t for the policy not allowing it, I’m afraid there would already be farmers of all sizes in China!
As a Chinese, Liu Dong also longed for his own land, so when he first came to Vancouver, he bought the entire valley. Nearly 550,000 acres of land!
550,000 acres equals 22.25 million square kilometers, which is almost equivalent to the area of a county in China!
The large-scale purchases satisfied Liu Dong's possessive desire for land. However, his business achievements made him curb his continued investment in land.
But now Long Jianguang's words made Liu Dong have other thoughts!
That’s right!
Compared to Bo Yun’s weird shopping malls, there is nothing more suitable for heirlooms than land!
Stable and continuous output, agricultural products that will never go out of style, everyone needs every day! Everything makes this industry neither brilliant nor gorgeous, but destined for a long-term future!
The more he thought about it, the more Liu Dong felt that after he was satisfied with his land, it might be a good idea to hoard land for the sake of future generations!
It can not only obtain stable and continuous output, but also leave a way out after the family industry declines!
After all, there is no eternally glorious family in the world!
"Brother Long, what do you think?" After making up his mind, Liu Dong raised his head and said.
Long Jianguang, who understood that Liu Dong had been persuaded by him, had joy in his expression, and then said: "Let's talk as we walk!"
After another afternoon of discussions, the two basically set the tone for cooperation! (To be continued.)
