American Super Rancher

Chapter 11 "Burning the Bottom of the Pot"
Qin Xu wiped his sweat after finally coaxing the glass-hearted elf after a lot of hard work.

"Feifei, tell the master quickly, how did you get the ranch points?"

Feifei's small eyes were still red, she glared at Qin Xu, and said with some lingering anger:

"Every ten dollars earned is equal to one point, real estate such as houses and stocks does not count."

After Qin Xu calculated, he immediately became discouraged.

It takes more than 1 million US dollars to upgrade all the land.

In fact, it is really not expensive, because after the land is upgraded, it means that this piece of land is a treasure.

After all, after the forage seeds are improved, the forage genes must be better.

But at the same time, more nutrients are needed, so it is useless if the grass genes cannot grow up.

Forget about these things and keep reading.

Grass Seed Improvement: Genetic grouping of ordinary grass seeds to achieve the quality of perfect grass.

Animal genetic improvement: extracting, adding or strengthening a gene to promote the evolution or variation of individual animals.

Breeding of new breeds of cattle: Combine ancient genes with existing genes to produce new breeds of cattle,
Note: Ancient genes need to be exchanged for points, and the ancient gene pool contains all the genes of cattle.

Seeing this, Qin Xu can't wait to experiment with new breeds of cattle immediately.

However, seeing the requirement of 80.00% upgrade of pasture land, I can't wait to pounce on it.

Sighing, Qin Xu continued to look down.

In the lower column, we go to the category of ranch buildings.

There are cattle pens, sheep pens, stables, racetracks, shooting ranges, warehouses, barns, dairy factories, breweries, and other buildings,

There are buildings ranging from one thousand points to one million points.

After looking at it, it turned into the fishing ground.

The inside of the fishing ground is basically similar to the ranch, so he took it at a glance.

Then there are the wineries.

It's a pity that the winery now only has one function of viticulture.

After reading these, Qin Xu found that there were more deputy positions.

When I opened it, I saw that it was divided into several sub-categories.

There is a language system, which includes the languages ​​of various countries in Britain, France, Germany, and South Korea.

Cooking skills are also divided into a small category, Chinese food, Western food, and various cuisines.

Fisherman skills include fishing and diving.

Rancher Passive Skill, Animal Affinity.

There are even fighting skills, free boxing, military boxing, Jeet Kune Do.

Qin Xu was dazzled by all kinds of skills.

However, when Qin Xu couldn't wait to learn Jeet Kune Do and learn how to be handsome like Bruce Lee, Feifei's magic voice sounded again.

"Master, because your physical fitness is not up to the requirements, you can't learn Jeet Kune Do for the time being. Please learn free kick first."

Qin Xu gritted his teeth after looking at the [-] tuition fee behind free fighting.

Learn, for the safety of your own life, there is no need to save on this.

And that English, isn't it [-] points, brother is not bad for this point.

After enduring the pain in his head for a while, Qin Xu suddenly felt that he understood some English that he didn't understand before. It was a miraculous feeling.

Qin Xu stood up and went to the bluestone steps, and slowly practiced according to the routine of free fighting in his mind.

It was a little rusty at the beginning, but the more I practiced the better, and I became a little addicted.

Well, it would be even better if it wasn't for my lack of physical strength.

Qin Xu turned off the system and practiced free fighting, and then suddenly remembered what his mother told him yesterday.

When you move to a new home, you want to invite someone to dinner. In your old home, it is called "burning the bottom of the pot".

It means that if you move house, you should invite your relatives, friends and neighbors to have a big meal at home, which will be lively and lively.

Qin Xu thought about it. Among his friends in the United States, apart from the two schoolgirls from yesterday, the only one he was familiar with was David.

Moreover, this guy David just returned to New York, and those two schoolgirls also have to go to school today.

Shaking his head, Qin Xu picked up the phone and called John.

"Hey, boss, what can I do for you?" John's hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's like this. I want to invite the cowboys from the ranch and the bosses of the surrounding ranches to gather at my villa at night. Do you think you need to prepare anything?"

"Boss, first you need to buy some ingredients and wine, and then I will notify the other ranchers to see who will come."

"That's it." Qin Xu nodded, and said with some shame:

"Appointment, can you find someone to accompany me? You know, it's my first time here."

"Of course, in this way, I will ask Little John to take you to Revere, and you can buy some meat, vegetables, fruits and beer."

Qin Xu was very satisfied with this arrangement, but he still asked:
"How do you prepare the dishes for that night?"

John heard this and explained with a smile:
"Boss, we all bake and eat by ourselves here, you just need to prepare the ingredients and marinate them."

Qin Xu felt relieved about this. It seems that Yankees are still easy to deal with?
Walking around in the warehouse, I saw that there were a lot of charcoal for the oven, so I went to the gate of the villa and waited for Little John.

After a while, I saw Little John appearing in front of Qin Xu driving that pickup truck.

After getting in the car, Little John shyly called out to boss, and stopped talking.

It can be seen that this guy is a bit introverted.

Along the way, Qin Xu asked questions and Little John answered, which made Qin Xu feel tired from chatting.

Fortunately, it is not very far from Revere, and we will arrive in Revere City in a while.

In fact, it is a city with a population of just over 2, which is not as large as a town in China.

The two of Qin Xu went directly to the largest supermarket in Revere City, and after entering, they went directly to the meat section.

When he arrived at the meat section, Qin Xu was a little dumbfounded.

The expensive beef is fifty or sixty dollars a pound, and the cheap one is four or five dollars a pound. Qin Xu said he couldn't understand.

He beckoned, called Little John over and asked, Qin Xu finally understood the American beef.

Meidi's beef is divided into two rating standards, namely meat quality and age.

According to the marbling, they divide the beef into eight grades of premium, special selection, preferred, standard, commercial, usable, chopped and canned.

And according to the different slaughtering time, it is divided into five levels of ABCDE,

Grade A refers to cattle aged from nine months to 42 months, Grade B refers to cattle aged from 42 months to 72 months, Grade C refers to cattle aged from 72 months to 96 months, and Grade D refers to cattle aged 96 months. Cattle aged from [-] months to [-] months, those over [-] months old are grade E,
Basically, the good beef you see in the supermarket is A grade.

The beef that can be bought in supermarkets is only the best, but the price of the best is also the most expensive.

A pound (nine taels) of premium beef costs about fifty dollars, which is indeed too expensive.

But under the optimal conditions, the prices of standard, commercial and usable beef are much cheaper.

Standard beef costs less than eight dollars a pound,

The commercial one is about five dollars, and the available one is three dollars.

The chopped and canned beef cannot be used directly, and the chopped beef can also be sold as minced meat, which is about one dollar per kilogram.

In fact, the canned beef that was finally made was not eaten by civilians in the United States except for the special supply to the army.

What John cooked for Qin Xu that day was standard-grade beef, and Qin Xu, who still ate it, said it was delicious.

In China, this level of beef is basically only for those steak meals.
You can go to the supermarket to buy beef and the most tender cucumber strips, which are basically commercial grade in Meidi.

If it is worse, such as upper brain, or beef brisket, it is basically at the usable level.

The cost of living in Boston is quite high, but the usable grade of beef can be converted into soft sister currency, which is less than 20 yuan a catty, but in China, it can be sold for more than 40 yuan.

However, if you buy standard-grade beef for more than 40 or 50 yuan in China, it will cost two or three hundred in domestic steak restaurants.

This is the gap.

Two, 300 yuan of beef, as long as it is cooked and has no strange smell, it is naturally delicious.

And the most important thing is that this meat did not fetch water, the meat quality, tsk tsk, is quite good.

While introducing Qin Xu, Little John led Qin Xu forward.

However, Qin Xu's eyes straightened after walking for a while,

What did he see?
Tomatoes are $2.99, bell peppers are 99 cents each, and a piece of lettuce is actually more expensive than beef.

Little John shrugged helplessly, which is why the ranchers would rather provide the cowboys with free meat than vegetables.

In the United States, corn, wheat, beef, mutton, fish, and other daily necessities are basically priced uniformly by the United States.

The situation in different places is different, and the price fluctuates slightly, but it is only a slight fluctuation.

In the United States, beef is like domestic grain, and ranchers sell cattle directly to animal husbandry associations, so they don’t have to look for a home like domestic people.

On the contrary, it is similar to domestic grain. When it is harvested, people from the country will come down to collect it. Of course, instead of selling it to these people, it can also be sold to some private companies.
However, the prices offered by private companies are not much higher than those of the state, and sometimes they are not guaranteed.

So basically, these fish farmers and herders will sell these production materials to the country.

After the country uniformly accepts them, they will be graded, and then they will be sold according to the unified standards, so that the prices will not be too high.

On the contrary, vegetables that cannot be transported long distances are very expensive in the United States. A good lettuce is even more expensive than standard-grade beef.

Qin Xu shook his head, really unable to understand.

Although he couldn't understand it, Qin Xu was not stingy, and directly took two hundred pounds of premium beef.

Other chicken wings, chicken legs, and some other meat have taken a lot.

Of course, Qin Xu didn't care about the price of vegetables and fruits, and just stuffed them into the shopping cart.

Although Qin Xu looked indifferent, Qin Xu's heart was bleeding.

Grandma's, the pasture is so big, I will definitely grow vegetables and fruits in the future.

At that time, labor and management will throw away while eating, and these vampires cannot be allowed to stuff their dollars into their pockets for nothing.

After picking out the ingredients, Qin Xu and the two came to the wine area, thinking that their wine cabinet was still empty, so they were even more impolite.

Guangyang Liquor took more than [-] kinds, as well as various wines, and finally took five barrels of beer before he was satisfied.

When it was time to check out, the manager came out, and politely said that there will be such a thing next time, and a phone call can directly deliver it to the door.
Qin Xu felt like throwing up on his face when he heard it, and there is such a thing, you think beautifully, labor and management will only eat what they grow on their own pastures in the future,

Such a big rancher came out to buy meat and vegetables, and it was a joke to be seen by others!

　Thank you Ziqing Taoist for your comments, thank you for your recommendation votes, thank you everyone
