My portable world of mixed farmers

Chapter 257 The Fanatical Rider Wagner
"We breed horses on the Wagner Farm mainly for pasture work, and we also train high-quality stallions for horse racing. Currently, the horses on the Wagner Farm are competing in events including the Kentucky Derby, the Melbourne Derby, the Liverpool Derby and the Siena Derby. The performance in various equestrian competitions is particularly outstanding, and two of them have won the championship. Now there are about 500 horses on the farm.” If it weren’t for the old Wagner, Dong Shanhe really didn’t know that Wagner Farm still has such a glorious history.

Dong Shanhe, who came to the United States, realized that the popularity of horse racing in the United States is very high, but the reputation is not obvious, and he has never heard of it in China, let alone watched the broadcast. Sports are more popular than basketball, ice hockey, and baseball, second only to rugby.

"There are seven or eight private lakes and rivers in our Wagner farm. These are all property belonging to the farm. After you take over, they will belong to you. The lakes on the farm are large in size and deep in water. They are excellent for fishing, boating, and paddling. One of the stops of the FLW World Fishing Competition is held here."

Fishing contest?Is this the first time Dong Shanhe has heard of this event?Although Dong Shanhe is not clear about this event, daring to be famous in the world is definitely a big event in Dong Shanhe's view.

"The sea bass here is delicious and delicious. I once hired a Chinese private chef to work here for three years, and I also studied with him, but I didn't learn it anyway, haha!" Old Wagner said. He actually laughed.

"Bass? If Mr. Wagner doesn't mind, I have time to cook for you tomorrow. You know, I'm also from China." Dong Shanhe said, patting his chest. He has also cooked Songjiang four-gill bass since he got the space. Many times, although I dare not say how good it is, it is still possible to coax old Wagner, an old man in his 70s, to eat the delicacies he has been thinking about for a long time.

"Then I'll leave my seat open!" Old Wagner didn't show courtesy to Dong Shanhe, and immediately agreed.

Not long after walking, Dong Shanhe saw a group of kowtowing machines, "This is one of the oil production wells, and there are more than 30 production wells in this area." Seeing Dong Shanhe staring at the kowtow machines, Old Wagner looked sad talking.

"100 years ago, when my ancestors drilled a well for water on the farm, they accidentally produced oil. At that time, my ancestors hated this situation very much, just like me now, because as an excellent farmer, I My ancestors knew the importance of water for livestock. However, in the 20s, with the large-scale development of the automobile industry, my ancestors' attitude towards oil changed radically, and they began to drill oil wells on Wagner Farm with great fanfare. , but there were only a few oil wells, because our family didn’t have much money at that time.”

"Now Wagner Farm has nearly 1000 oil wells, of which more than 150 oil wells are in production and operation, of which 1000 oil wells belong to our family and are operated by Wagner Real Estate, and the remaining more than 40 oil wells are operated by 500 independent companies. Operators, but these companies are basically small local oil developers in Texas, and the Robert I just met and his family have more than [-] oil wells on the Wagner Farm, and they are also the largest shareholder of the farm." Speaking of Old Wagner I regret that at the beginning, if I was not greedy for money, I would not have introduced a large amount of funds, let alone take my own farm as a shareholder, resulting in the control of the farm being controlled by these oil companies.

"Although there are many oil wells here, and even some oil wells drilled in the 20s are still producing oil, the amount of oil that can be extracted is less and less. In the past, 20 oil wells could produce 700 barrels a day. Oil, now can’t even reach 4000 barrels, and after detection, the light crude oil in the farm has been exploited, leaving some heavy crude oil, which can only be extracted while injecting water. Even so, the oil here The oil will be completely extracted within four or five years." There are actually reasons for this problem, mainly because the old Wagner and the oil company group have different opinions on farm management strategies in the past [-] years, which has led to modern Drilling technology has not been used on the farm. The depth of all the oil wells on the farm is currently only [-] meters, but according to modern drilling technology, the drilling depth can reach more than [-] meters.

"Although this is the case for oil resources at present, many geological exploration companies have told us that there are definitely a large amount of oil and natural gas resources under Wagner Farm, but we do not have the ability and strength to develop them." Since being pitted by these oil companies Well, the old Wagner avoided oil companies, and he was not willing to discuss with them about continuing to exploit oil. Even if the company that came was Mobil or Chevron, the old Wagner was unwilling to talk to them.

"No one can tell what will happen in the future. I just like land. I don't like oil. Although oil makes money, my little money is not worth a bite of meat in front of oil predators." Dong Shanhe has self-knowledge. It is uncertain whether there is oil under the farm. Even if there is oil, I will not mine it. If I mine oil now, I will definitely be eaten by the standard department. Old Rockefeller is not dead yet.

"After I leave, all the cattle and horses here will be given to you." Old Wagner said to Dong Shanhe with a smile when he heard what Dong Shanhe said.

"Mr. Wagner, I also have a racing horse in my hometown, why don't you show me, I heard that you were a very good rider back then." Dong Shanhe said and took out his mobile phone.

The huge mobile phone screen lit up in front of Old Wagner.

Old Wagner didn't care at first. He didn't think that Dong Shanhe could have any good horses. Even if he had the money to buy warm-blooded horses or Arabian horses, a horse that has not been trained is just an ordinary horse. The horse that wins the big competition is the gold bump that earns money, and the breeding of his two champion horses costs [-] US dollars for a single breeding.

However, when the old Wagner saw the white dragon horse on the mobile phone video, his eyes widened and he could no longer close them, staring at the mobile phone motionlessly.

The white dragon horse in the mobile phone is imposing, with a tall frame, strong muscles, and a mane that stands out, and you can tell that it is a natural good seedling.

"This should be an Akhal Teke horse! This horse must be 1.8 meters nine?" Old Wagner murmured to himself.

"Dong, can you let me see this horse?" After the video was played, the old Wagner held Dong Shanhe's arm and asked expectantly.

"It's called the White Dragon Horse. It's in China now. I don't know when it will be shipped to the United States. I heard that the United States has very strict control over exotic animals." The White Dragon Horse is in the space now, and Dong Shanhe can get it out at any time. But how do I explain it myself?

"I know, can you arrange to have it shipped over now, and I'll pay for the shipping." Old Wagner seemed to see a peerless beauty, with her in his heart and eyes.

"After I return to China from the United States, I will arrange to send the white dragon horse over immediately," Dong Shanhe said with a smile.

"This horse is really excellent. Just by looking at it, it looks like a champion. As long as it is trained by me, it will definitely win the Kentucky National Derby." Old Wagner said confidently.
