Xiao Family Farm started to move, and another major industry under Xiao Feng, "Jinghu Ranch", was naturally not willing to lag behind. One week after the Rainwater Solar, that is, on February 25, Ma Wanli began to order employees to plow 10,000 acres of land in the valley and prepare to plant the space grass prepared by Xiao Feng.

In the past winter, the five thousand acres of grass planted originally were not frozen by heavy snow, but they rested under the thick snow, accumulated strength, and revitalized after spring. Now, these lush alfal grasses have grown to their knees, with thick rhizomes and full branches and leaves, which are better than any grass Ma Wanli has ever seen.

According to Ma Wanli's experience, the 5,000 acres of forage in the first phase of Jinghu Ranch can be put into normal use, and each acre of grass can carry at least 3 cows.

The thriving trend of forage naturally made Ma Wanli let go of his always hanging heart, and took advantage of the warm spring and snowy season to start the second phase of the pasture project and accelerate the construction of the pasture. As an expert in ranch management, Ma Wanli naturally understands the importance of high-quality forage to the pasture. Today, Jinghu Ranch has the foundation for great development.

The total grassland of the first and second phases of the project is 15,000 acres. For countries with developed animal husbandry in Europe and the United States, it can only be regarded as a small and medium-sized ranch, but in southern Yunnan, this is an absolute large ranch. What's more, the third phase of Jinghu Ranch will have 25,000 acres of grassland. The entire Jinghu Valley will remove areas that are not suitable for grazing and need protection. The entire Jinghu Ranch has a grassland area suitable for grazing to reach 40,000 acres!

When Ma Wanli thought of how he could take charge of such a super-large ranch, he would wake up even when he was sleeping!

As long as the first and second phases of the pastures are developed and a sufficient number of beef cattle, dairy cows, and high-quality assets owned by Jinghu Ranch can be mortgaged to the bank, and it will become a natural thing to borrow money to develop the third phase of the project.

…………

Just as the lawn mower and rotary tiller were working on Jinghu Ranch, Ma Wanli had been at the junction of Peking and northern Hebei for 10 days. He basically spent his time at the Animal Husbandry Research Institute of Huaxia Agricultural University, a cattle breeding base under the Huaxia Animal Husbandry Research Institute, and purchased the best dairy cows and beef cattle breeds for the "Jinghu Ranch".

There are also many cattle breeding centers for cattle breeding in southern Yunnan, but these breeding centers are too small to meet the requirements of Jinghu Ranch. For this reason, after attending the opening ceremony of Jinghu Scenic Area, Ma Wanli took a Southern Yunnan Airlines flight to Peking the next day.

As the capital, Peiping has an extremely special political status in the country. Although its economic center is gradually being replaced by the rising Haizhou, it still has an important role in many fields.

Grassland, the three northeastern provinces, Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Longzhou, and the southern provinces of the Sakura River are the most developed areas in China. In addition to being the largest animal husbandry trading market in the country, Peiping, located in the central location, is also the most important cattle breeding center. Relying on universities and research institutions such as Huaxia Agricultural University, Huaxia Forestry University, and Animal Husbandry Research Institute, Tongzhou, at the junction of Peking and northern Hebei, has become China's most important cattle breeding base, with various breeding centers of all sizes everywhere.

Every year, about half of the high-quality breeding cattle nationwide flow from here to all parts of the country!

With five assistants, Ma Wanli spent a lot of energy and finally picked up 10,000 Chinese Holstein cows and 2,000 Angus calfs. If it weren't for Ma Wanli's original classmates, most of the teachers would have held important positions in these two units. Even if "Jinghu Ranch" is rich, it would not have been possible to buy so many excellent cow breeds so easily.

After the beginning of spring, it is the best time for major ranches and farms to buy a large amount of fresh blood. Jinghu ranch is equivalent to snatching food from a tiger's mouth. The difficulty is no less than a war.

Most of the cows are cows that are pregnant or are about to enter the maturity stage. Only one hundred mature bulls will be used as breeding cattle; while the two thousand Angus calfs are also mainly cows, and the proportion of bulls reaches less than 3%.

The average price of 10,000 dairy cows is 15,000 yuan, and the price of purebred Angus calf is not cheap either. 25,000 yuan is equivalent to two ordinary adult Luxi scalpers, and the total price of 12,000 cattle reaches 200 million!

In the eyes of many people, agriculture and animal husbandry is a low-cost, labor-intensive industry. In fact, in large-scale production, high investment and capital-intensive have become the characteristics of agriculture and animal husbandry today.

If Xiao Feng hadn't had the 300 million yuan loan provided by Long Xiangrui, he wouldn't have been able to expand the breeding scale of Jinghu Ranch to such an extent at once.

These days, high-end beef and high-end milk on the market are expensive, but behind their low operating and production costs is the high first investment.

200 million yuan of funds. In the Tongzhou Animal Husbandry Trading Market, which has a huge transaction volume, it is like a stone thrown into Jinghu Lake. In a blink of an eye, only ripples that gradually disappear are left. Since Tongzhou's animal husbandry trading market has very few precedents for transporting livestock to southern Yunnan, the breeding cattle purchased by Jinghu Ranch must be responsible for transportation by itself.

Ma Wanli rented a farm and enough workers to put the selected breeding cattle here for foster care at a cost of 200,000 yuan a day, and waited for Xiao Feng to bring his people to arrive and loaded it with the vehicle.

This is not an easy task!

…………

Just as Ma Wanli was nervously selecting cattle breeds, Xiao Feng also led the employees of Jinghu Ranch and the villagers of Ginkgo Village to board the train from Chuncheng to Peiping.

It is not a simple matter to transport 12,000 cattle from Peking, thousands of miles away to Ginkgo Village. All the things involved cannot be handled by Ma Wanli and a few people.

In order to deal with this large-scale transfer of cattle breeding, Xiao Feng began to use all his relationships from the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to prepare for this long-distance training.

First of all, the Yaozhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government issued a series of relevant certificates for the "Jinghu Ranch", indicating that this batch of breeding cattle is used for the production of Yaozhou supported enterprises and is not sold across provinces. With these documents, breeding cattle in Jinghu Ranch can reduce a lot of trouble, including sanitation, quarantine, taxation and other departments.

At the same time, through his relationship in the provincial capital, Su Yang also asked the provincial government, the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Public Security to jointly issue relevant documents to minimize the inspections of transportation fleets by law enforcement agencies in various provinces and make things difficult for them.

After all the written documents were prepared, Xiao Feng gathered all the escorts in front of the small square of the tourist reception center and boarded the bus to Chuncheng. Originally, Xiao Feng was preparing to charter a flight to Peking, but the face of Jinghu Ranch could not allow the airline to free up a flight in a short time. Xiao Feng had to give up this idea and took 300 people to Beiping by train.

Except for Xiao Jinxu who was over 60 years old, the male member of the Xiao family was left at home, including Xiao Jinming, Xiao Jinhao, Xiao Feng's brother-in-law, and the third generation of the Xiao family, all of whom were in the escort team. In addition, all 200 employees of Jinghu Ranch appeared, and the total number of villagers who came to help in Ginkgo Village reached 300.

Everyone, including Xiao Feng, wore sky blue work clothes with the "Minghu Ranch" printed on it. The neat formation made people shine.

The six tourist buses rented from Yaozhou Tourism Group lined up in the parking lot. Xiao Feng took the escort team to get on the bus one by one and headed straight to Chuncheng Railway Station.

While Xiao Feng and others were waiting for the train at the train station, they received a lot of attention. Even the crew of the Southern Yunnan TV News Channel, which was filming nearby, sent people to interview several employees and broadcast the news that a private ranch went to Peking to receive cattle on the news express train that night.

The express train from Chuncheng to Peiping takes 36 hours to run. Anyway, the escorts this time are all young and middle-aged, and Xiao Feng couldn't buy so many sleeper tickets, so he simply bought all the hard seats, and 300 people occupied most of the seats in the three compartments.

"Brother Jiu, have you been to Peking?" Xiao Qiang, who was sitting in the seat, was a little excited and looked around.

"It's the first time I'm going to Peiping!" Xiao Feng shook his head and said, "This time we don't have time to travel. We probably have to go to Tongzhou when we come out of the train station, and then escort the breeding cattle back!"

The rent for renting a farm and breeding workers is 200,000 yuan a day, which is nothing, but Xiao Feng still hopes to transport the breeding cattle back to the ranch as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams.

There is a saying among the country people: A wealthy family is not worthy of being furious!

Xiao Feng spent a lot of money to buy so many kinds of cows. If there was any accident, Xiao Feng would be crying and crying. It would be better to get them back to the pasture as soon as possible so that they could thrive under the nourishment of the space spiritual spring and green grass to be at ease.

This will also be the only experience of buying livestock from other places on a large scale. In the future, the Houjing Lake Ranch will need to be cultivated by itself and breed various high-quality cattle breeds, and finally grow into the best ranch in China.

Although Xiao Feng is the boss, the management rights for this trip were handed over to Liu Weiqiang, the vice president of Jinghu Ranch. Xiao Feng could chat and fuck Xiao Qiang and Xiao Dazhi with confidence and fight against the landlords.

36 hours passed in a flash. At 8 o'clock in the morning of the third day, the train stopped at Beiping West Station on time. In the parking lot outside the station, the bus rented by Ma Wanli was ready. Without much delay, the escort staff from Jinghu Ranch rushed to the breeding farm in Tongzhou before lunch and saw a large herd of breeding cattle.

After lunch, three hundred employees of Jinghu Ranch were divided into fifty groups, each of which was responsible for 8 large trailers and began to transfer cattle to the trailers. Fortunately, a complete industrial chain has been formed in Tongzhou. With the help of experts, it took five hours to transfer 12,000 breeding cattle to finally transfer all 400 large trailers.
Chapter completed!
