Chapter 454 The improvement point of the pasture (today
Before Ju An could reach the helicopter, Lawrence followed him and said to Ju An: "I'll come over later after I've finished my work here. By the way, Professor Norman is sorting things out these days. It seems like there's something wrong
I want to inform you about something!".
"Pack things up?" Ju An was stunned for a moment and then asked Lawrence: "Professor Norman is not leaving, is he? Found a new topic?" As soon as he heard Lyman sorting things out, Ju An felt a little reluctant to leave.
, a good shield is gone, my own protective power immediately
It has dropped by 5%. And it’s almost the holiday. Where can we find people? Is it because I dislike the lack of funds given by my brothers? It shouldn’t be. When receiving the money, Lehman and his students were all smiling, and they were content with themselves.
I'm not a stingy person. So where is the problem?
Lawrence glanced at Ju An: "I thought you knew it! Professor Norman is not leaving. He seems to be going to Hans Ranch for a while. He said he wanted to take a good look at the plants cultivated by Professor Leonard at the ranch.
”.
"Huh~~!" Ju An let out a long breath: "I thought Professor Norman disliked the poor conditions here and wanted to find another place to eat."
"Hahaha!" Lawrence laughed after hearing this and said to Ju An: "Professors Leonard and Norman are very satisfied with the current conditions. They told me and Thomas two days ago that they are waiting for the construction of the institute to be completed.
I need to find some professors to come with me after I leave. How can I leave? It is said that Professor Lehmann sent emails to several of his friends, and many of them are willing to come here!"
Ju An clapped his hands: "That's great. I hope there will be more talents in the animal husbandry industry." It would be better if there are many famous ones who are on par with Lehmann. Then everyone will be smiling.
With a bright shield, it will be more convenient to secretly add some materials from time to time.
I got on the plane in a happy mood and flew towards the old house on the ranch. I saw herds of cattle being driven out in the sky, grazing on the snowy ground, and cowboys driving snowmobiles to drive the cattle.
The cattle dogs were jumping on the snow. Ju An looked at them from above and felt a sense of pride in his heart.
Looking at the land as far as the eye can see, it belongs to you, and it can be passed on to the next generation. It is really like the slogan on the wall I saw when I was a child: But save every inch of land for future generations to cultivate! This brother is simply doing this.
Great, leaving hundreds of thousands of acres for future generations to cultivate! I can’t even find words to praise myself.
Humming a few lyrics back and forth, Ju An opened the door of the old house. As soon as he entered, he saw Thomas pouring coffee. His boots were still stained with snow. It looked like he had just come in from outside and threw away his hat.
Arriving at the big table in the living room: "Give me a drink too. After looking around, I finally felt relieved."
"Don't worry about the cows in our pasture. None of them died in Lawrence. Only a newborn calf died here. He was unlucky. It was snowy and windy yesterday and the cowboys couldn't wait for the calf to be born." Thomas wrote to Ju An
He put a cup of coffee in front of him and said to Ju An with a smile.
"Is the baby born a bull or a heifer?" Ju An gently picked up the coffee and blew on it. He drank a little along the rim of the cup and suddenly felt a heat flowing down his throat and into his stomach.
"Baby bull, the cow had difficulty giving birth to her calf for the first time." Thomas sat on the chair next to Ju An.
He nodded: "That's okay. This can be considered as reducing the loss to the minimum. Are there other cows that want to give birth to calves?".
"This is a special situation. The cowboys couldn't take care of it yesterday. I thought it would be a week or two at first, but I didn't know that I gave birth last night," Thomas explained.
After hearing Thomas' explanation, Ju An smiled and asked Thomas: "Just now, Lawrence told me that Professor Norman has something to discuss with me? Where is this guy? I'll call him right away."
I wanted to take out my cell phone and call Norman.
"No need, I just called Professor Norman to inform him, he will be here soon." Thomas stopped Ju An from calling.
Since Professor Norman was coming, Ju An decided to wait here. After chatting with Thomas for a while, Ju An turned around, stood up from his chair, and turned on the large wall-mounted TV hanging on the wall, which the cowboys had.
Sometimes I come here to watch football games and so on, so the TVs in the office are very big.
As soon as he turned on the TV and tuned to the news, there were reports about the snow disaster everywhere. After watching it for a while, Ju An realized that the snow disaster was still very serious. On the screen, a third of the cattle in a fattening pasture were almost dead. The rancher was lying facing
The dead cow carcass was so frozen in the cowshed that I couldn't even cry.
"The price of beef will definitely go up a lot during Christmas. The snow has swept across many states, and it's still falling in some places now," Thomas said with a sigh and watching TV.
Ju An nodded. The increase in beef prices had little impact on Ju An. It was already high-end beef, so how could it get higher? And there was no loss to his own pasture cattle.
After Thomas, an old cowboy, watched TV with compassion, Professor Norman opened the door and walked in, holding a small square bag wrapped in cowhide under his arm. He stood next to the two of them and watched TV together for a while, then turned his head.
He handed Ju An some pieces of paper.
Ju An took the paper and flipped through it. Most of it contained tables and trace elements of plants. They knew these letters, but Ju An didn't: "Why did you give me this? You know I can't see it."
Understand”.
Professor Norman pulled up a chair and sat down, putting the cowhide in his hand on the table: "Then let's start talking about the areas that need to be improved in the pasture?".
"How many more points are there? How can we improve the grazing?" Ju An looked at Thomas and felt that the pasture was pretty good now, but how could he improve it? Thomas also looked at Norman with a strange look on his face.
Professor Norman waved his hand: "I'm not talking about grazing, nor am I talking about Xishuihe Ranch, but Hans Ranch."
"What's wrong with Hans Ranch? Aren't you just herding sheep now? Leonard is planning to expand the flock? Oh, I forgot to inform you. I'm going to get some donkeys to raise there so they can eat meat."
Ann said to Lyman.
Norman shook his head and said: "In this period of time, I combined with Professor Leonard's research results and found that raising sheep in R. brachyphyllum is a bit wasteful, and we should raise cattle!".
"I would like to raise cows, but these white cows don't like eating this plant at all." Ju An shrugged and opened his hands to Professor Norman, indicating that he had considered it before.
Norman smiled and waved his hand: "I'm not talking about beef cattle, I'm talking about dairy cows! This plant also has trace elements that are particularly suitable for dairy cows. I fed several dairy cows with rhizome fern, and they produced milk after a month.
The quality has obviously improved a lot, and the fat content is very low. Then I experimented with a few more cows and found that the conditions were similar."
"Raise cows?" Ju An scratched his head. I have never thought about raising cows. I don't like drinking milk. Besides, the milk at home is directly supplied and the quality is very good. To be honest, the most important thing is
It seems to Ju'an that the milk here in the United States is too cheap and there is nothing to do. Moreover, dairy farming requires milking every day. Even if it is fully mechanized, it does not require hiring more people. Dairy farming is really not suitable for Ju'an's appetite.
A big cheating party.
Thinking of this, Ju An said to Norman: "Raising cows is too troublesome! And the price of milk is not high. It is not as convenient as raising goats to eat meat."
Seeing that Ju An was so clueless, Norman immediately explained: "What I'm talking about is that the quality of the milk is good. Even if raw milk is not sold, it can be made into milk powder."
"Milk powder?" When Ju An mentioned milk powder, three deer immediately jumped back and forth happily on the dividend notes, and then he knocked on the table a few times with both hands: "Milk powder is not bad! This one has a clue!".
If Americans don’t eat it, they can sell it to the country.
Well, think about these profiteers at home and abroad. Domestic ones add things, and foreign ones increase prices. In the future, if you guys join in, you bastards will not be able to eat it! As long as you guarantee the quality and the price is more suitable, this will
Jars and jars are full of money.
Norman watched Ju An adopt his opinion and happily continued: "In the future, Hans Ranch can mainly produce milk, and then we can build a milk processing company in Kingman."
This is simple. I guess Ju An is telling Miles now, and they are eager to raise their feet to support. But in my heart, I think it’s a pity that this guy’s donkey has no place to raise, and he’s still waiting to eat donkey meat.
He said to Professor Norman: "It's a pity, there is no place to raise donkey meat."
Norman looked at Ju An and said with a smile: "Then you can buy a pasture next year, or buy wasteland, plant ferns and raise donkeys and goats. That's enough. You shouldn't be short of money."
"That's the only way!" Ju An nodded. It seemed that eating the donkey meat from his own ranch would have to be postponed for another year.
"Now that we've finished talking about Hans Ranch, let's talk about the cowhide. You two, come and touch the cowhide I brought." Norman put the cowhide on the table.
Ju An reached out and grabbed the cowhide in his hand. It was very soft and had some elasticity: "This is the cowhide from our ranch? It's different from the previous ones." After saying that, he handed it to Thomas, who took it and touched it twice.
nodded.
"In the past, the ranch sold cowhide to leather goods manufacturers in the town. The price was too low. White cowhide is very breathable and soft. It would be too wasteful to make these handmade saddles worth hundreds of dollars using this fine material.
, should be supplied to those famous brands!" Norman gave Ju An and Thomas each a piece of A4 finger. Ju An glanced at it and didn't want to look at it. These researchers like to use numbers to represent
I'm impressed, but I'm afraid of looking at these letters, and I get dizzy just by looking at them.
"Then I will immediately send these cowhide information to the fashion dealers in New York to see if any of them are interested." Thomas looked at the paper, put it down like Ju An, and touched the cowhide.
Ju An waved his hand and said: "Leave this thing to me." When it comes to fashion, Thomas is casting the net everywhere, so it is better to find someone to talk to. Who is it? That Linbaojini snowplow guy in the morning.
Miles is definitely capable of doing the job. It's okay to promote young models. Can you know a few people in the fashion industry?
