Chapter 750 Taming the big dark horse



No matter how the old man shook his head, he couldn't help but disbelieve the facts before his eyes.

"Old sir, I have been out for a long time and I am in a hurry to go back. If you have nothing to do, I will leave first!" Liu Dong said.

"Wait a minute, I'll go back with you!" the old man said quickly.

He didn't understand what was going on, but he still felt panicked in his heart!

"Okay!" Liu Dong nodded, as he happened to have something to ask.

Watching the old man turn the horse's head, Liu Dong gently patted the neck of the big black horse beneath him.

After receiving Liu Dong's instructions, the big black horse neighed, raised its strong four hooves, and its strong body with a length of more than two meters from head to tail flew out like an arrow from Xuan.

In an instant, he left the old man and his yellow gelding behind.

"Hey, wait for me!"

Hearing the old man's slightly anxious voice, Liu Dong patted the horse's neck again. The big black horse was very smart and slowly slowed down.

"It seems that you have really tamed little Charlie. He has never let anyone ride on his back before, let alone be so obedient!" The old man who caught up looked at Liu Dong and sighed slightly.

"Yeah!" Liu Dong nodded in agreement.

"Young man, are you from China?" After the two horses ran parallel, the old man looked at Liu Dong and asked.

"yes!"

“I didn’t expect that China still has such an outstanding horse trainer as you!”

Facing the old man's sigh, Liu Dong couldn't help but shook his head and smiled: "Old man, I misunderstood. I am not a horse trainer. I came to Vancouver this time to visit an elder of mine. I just came to his farm as a guest, and I accidentally bumped into him.

Then it ran out. In order to prevent this guy from scaring the cattle, I got on its back, and it ended up humping me here, and I accidentally tamed this guy!"

"Is everything you said true?" the old man said, glaring.

"Of course! In China. I'm just an ordinary businessman who likes to collect antiques!"

After listening to Liu Dong's words, the old man looked him over and shook his head, "Horse trainers in Canada and the United States should be reformed. Their level is actually not comparable to that of an ordinary Chinese businessman!"

Liu Dong smiled and said nothing.

"By the way. Old sir, I would like to ask you, is there an owner of this valley?" Liu Dong said.

"No!"

"No? How is that possible? This is a good pasture!"

Seeing the surprised look on Liu Dong's face, the old man smiled and said: "You have a good vision. The Mod Valley is indeed a good pasture, but there is no shortage of excellent pastures and farms around Vancouver, and it is surrounded by mountains.

The road is very rugged, and it is 150 miles away from Vancouver. Transportation is inconvenient, and life is even more inconvenient, so there has never been an owner here!"

"What about these cattle and sheep?"

"It's mine. My farm is not far from here, so I often graze here!" the old man said.

"By the way, old gentleman...!"

"Okay, don't call me Mr. Old. My name is Phil Hart. People who know me well call me Old Hart. Just call me that too! ... By the way. Young man, what's your name?

Name?" the old man said with a smile.

"My name is Liu Dong!"

"Liu...Liu Dong, your Chinese names are really hard to pronounce!" Old Hart shook his head.

Hearing this, Liu Dong didn't say anything. Little did he know that in the hearts of Chinese people, foreign names are more difficult to pronounce, smelly and long!

"By the way, what did you ask me just now?"

"That's right, I want to ask you how much the price of a farm in Canada is. I really like farm life and want to buy one myself!" Liu Dong said.

"You want to buy a farm in Canada?" Old Hart asked in surprise.

"Yeah, isn't it possible?"

"It's not impossible, but the price of Canadian farms is not cheap. Do you have money?" Old Hart felt that Liu Dong was too young and didn't look like someone with a lot of property.

Because he was too young, he was misunderstood a lot, and Liu Dong was immune to it. So after Old Hart finished speaking, Liu Dong said: "Of course I have enough money, otherwise I wouldn't ask!"

"Yes!" After nodding, Old Hart continued, "Canada has a vast territory, and there are many areas that can be used for agricultural cultivation. However, due to differences in natural conditions, transportation conditions and living conditions, the prices of farms are also different.

, the price is as low as a few hundred or even tens of Canadian dollars per acre, and the price as high as 50,000 or 60,000 Canadian dollars per acre! So the key to buying a farm depends on the location. If you choose the Yukon and Northwest Territories, it may only cost 100,000 Canadian dollars.

You can buy thousands or even tens of thousands of acres of land for just 10 dollars, but if you really buy it, you probably won’t be able to earn back 100,000 Canadian dollars in 10 years!”

"What if I buy it near Vancouver?" Liu Dong said immediately.

“Near Vancouver? That’s not cheap! The lowest priced farms are $10,000 an acre!”

"So expensive?" Liu Dong said in surprise.

Ten thousand Canadian dollars is equivalent to 60,000 Chinese dollars, and one acre is equivalent to 6 acres of land. One acre of land is 10,000 yuan. In rural areas in China, it only takes ten years to contract one acre of land for so much money.

However, the difference is that in Canada, when you buy the land, it is yours privately. No matter what is found under the land, even if there is a gold mine, it is still yours. The land can also be passed on to future generations, but this is obviously not the case in China.

Therefore, Liu Dong felt that the price was indeed expensive after bringing his experience into the situation. But he soon realized it.

"expensive?"

After taking a look at Liu Dong, Old Hart said: "Farms close to downtown Vancouver are more expensive, 50,000 Canadian dollars per acre!"

Being close to the city, the living and transportation conditions are naturally better, and the price is naturally higher.

However, the reason why farm prices in Vancouver are expensive is mainly because of the climate here.

Vancouver has a mild climate and pleasant weather all year round. The urban grasslands are evergreen and the flowers are in bloom. It has a temperate maritime climate. The temperature in summer is generally around 20 degrees Celsius, and the temperature in winter is above 0 degrees Celsius. It rarely snows in winter. But there are still

The relatively high rainfall has given Vancouver the title of "Canada's Rain Capital".

Moreover, Vancouver is a seaport and the third largest city in Canada. The transportation and sale of agricultural products are very convenient. These have increased the price of farm land in Vancouver in disguise.

In fact, businessmen who really want to invest in farms will not choose Vancouver because the base price here is too high. Instead, several provinces such as Manitoba, Ontario, and Alberta are a better choice. The land prices here are cheap. Agriculture is also relatively cheap.

It is well developed and has relatively good services. Even the provincial council has formulated relevant policies to promote agricultural development.

However, Liu Dong bought the farm mainly for leisure, and did not intend to devote himself to agriculture and animal husbandry, so Vancouver, which has spring-like weather all year round, a mild climate and is suitable for health care, is more suitable for him.

As for the higher price, he can accept it. Anyway, he has more than 500 million US dollars in his pocket now, so he is typically not short of money.

Listening to Old Hart explaining all kinds of knowledge about the Vancouver farm, the two of them rode horses to the entrance of the valley.

This is a narrow valley between two mountains, cut out by the small river Liu Dong saw in the valley just now. In addition to the meandering river about 10 meters wide in the middle, there are large and small debris piled up on the bank.

The larger ones are over six or seven meters tall and weigh dozens of tons, while the smaller ones are only as big as a fist.

However, the width of the mountain road by the river is not particularly wide, and it is blocked by large and small rocks, making it impossible for cars to pass. However, if you ride a horse, there will be no problem.

I looked at the steep mountain walls around the valley road all the way, and after passing through the valley that was about 200 meters long and in the shape of an inverted 'V', I saw a wide field of vision. Wherever I looked, I saw a verdant green, dotted with farms of all sizes.

extends to the horizon.

"Let's go, we'll reach my farm as soon as we get down the mountain!"

After nodding, Liu Dong followed Old Hart and ran down the hillside. The hillside was not too steep, and the height where Liu Dong and the others came out of the valley was only about two hundred meters high.

So after running for more than a thousand meters, the two of them came down from the mountain.

After descending the mountain and running for more than 500 meters, after passing through a forest, Old Hart's farm was already in sight!

"How's it going, Liu! Isn't my farm nice?"

"Yeah!" Liu Dong nodded. Old Hart's farm is actually not too big. The area is only half of Uncle Long's farm. It is estimated to be only five or six thousand acres. However, there are no crops grown on the farm.

A large number of beef cattle are raised naturally!

"I think back then, this farm was left by my father. For decades, it has been the Hart family's most proud property!" Staring at his farm, Old Hart sighed with emotion, then suddenly turned to

Liu Dong continued: "Liu, if you really want to buy a farm, I am willing to sell my farm to you!"

"Sell it to me?"

"That's right!" Old Hart nodded, "Several of my children are in the United States, living in big cities, and they all live a very good life. No one is willing to come back and take over my farm. And Sally and I pay for the farm.

After a busy life, we want to enjoy life in our old age! So, I plan to sell the farm in exchange for some money, and then take her to travel around and see all the beautiful scenery in the world. In this way,

When we return to the embrace of God, we will have no regrets!”

Seeing the expectation and final relief on Old Hart's face, Liu Dong said nothing more, and the other person's attitude towards life made him a little envious.

Traveling to every corner of the world and seeing the most majestic scenery in the world was once what he longed to achieve most. However, reality was often far from his ideal, and as he became increasingly busy, he could never really calm down and enjoy life.
