Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 458

For a time, almost the whole of London was paying attention to this new aristocrat. Wang Lu even saw a tabloid media dig out all the public information about him.

Of course, while bringing attention, this Garter Medal brought Wang Lu more than just fame, there were also some actual benefits, but they were all insignificant.

It is similar to the honorary citizen title he received in Tennessee before, and it will bring certain conveniences in business exchanges and so on.

For example, if Wang Lu wanted to become a British citizen now, it would only be a matter of submitting an application document, but Wang Lu probably wouldn't consider it.

After the Jiade Day ended, Wang Lu took his family back to the ranch.

The past six months passed very quickly. Wang Lu's thoughts were not only on the big boy, but also on the soybeans in the field.

He didn't even pay much attention to the beef cattle in the farm. After half a year of cultivation, the imported Australian Wagyu, Angus cattle, including the local African Zebu and Bonsmara cattle were growing very well. gratifying.

Basically, my weight has increased by hundreds of kilograms in half a year, which is already higher than the average level.

The professionalism of the Burns team has been vividly demonstrated. The tens of thousands of beef cattle on the entire farm are in good order under their management. Under strict management regulations, there has not been a single large-scale disease in half a year, and even one cow has died due to illness. None of the dead beef cattle appeared.

The only casualty was that an African zebu was squeezed down when returning to the pen, and then trampled, causing fractures and infection. In the end, the veterans stewed it with tears, added more chili peppers, and more garlic...
Even though it had only been raised for half a year, the meat quality had begun to transform like snowflakes, and the stew tasted quite good, which made Wang Lu feel relieved.

"The tens of thousands of beef cattle on the farm alone will produce hundreds of millions of dollars this year..."

Wang Lu grinned almost to the back of his head!

"Increase the amount of breeding next year! The grassland area of ​​the pasture must also be used!"

Those who grow oil sedge have to harvest it for green storage, which is too troublesome!

Just raise more cattle and sheep and raise them freely on the sedge grassland. Let the beef cattle directly eat the sedge. With a small pride of lions guarding you, you don't have to worry about prairie predators.

The hydropower station has been in operation for half a year without any malfunctions. It only requires regular maintenance to ensure normal operation. If it fails, the local construction aid group can provide technical support at any time.

The energy supply of the ranch is also completely stable.

Not long after Wang Lu returned to the ranch, he received a call from China.

It was Lao Du from the Farm Reclamation Group who called:

"Mr. Wang, all our first batch of soybean seeds have been put into the ground, and the superiors are already planning to release them outside!"

"understand!"

It seems that the new soybeans cultivated by themselves have been rolled out in the country, and the counterattack against the four major grain giants is about to sound.

Wang Lu turned around and said hello to Richard, don't let this guy get away with him.

"Boss, don't worry. As soon as there is any disturbance in the market, we will immediately follow up. When the time comes, the safekeeping can increase the funds on hand a lot!"

Richard also said excitedly that this was his first time doing short selling on this scale, and he was also looking forward to the results.Sure enough, the day after Wang Lu received the call, a piece of news began to circulate in the market that was not very credible in the eyes of most people.

The main content of this news is that the reason why China stubbornly rejected the blackmail of the four major grain giants was because it had mastered new soybean varieties.

Not only does this soybean variety have a higher yield and oil yield than North American soybeans, it is not even a genetically modified variety, and it is also more healthy and safe!

At first, many people did not take it seriously, and the market value of the four major grain giants did not fluctuate at all.

But as this news continues to circulate in the investment market, it is obvious that the situation is getting worse.

Those capital forces are not elementary school students. They are all talented people. Knowing that this kind of news can keep spreading, it is natural that someone is deliberately promoting it.

After careful investigation, it was found that the source of this news was bullish, which seemed to be just a conventional short-selling method, but it was a bit immature or outrageous.

After all, the patented soybean technology in North America is recognized as the most advanced at present. If there is such a breakthrough, there should be news long ago!
Most people's tough attitude towards China just thinks that China intends to use its own reserves of soybeans to persist longer and strive for more benefits.

Of course, this kind of news continues to ferment, and it will eventually have a certain impact on the market value of the four major grain giants, but it is also very small, basically equivalent to regular market fluctuations.

After all, the size of this food giant cannot be easily shaken.

The four major grain giants did not even bother to respond to this news.

It seems that this turmoil has stopped.

But with the broadcast of a domestic CCTV news, the whole situation changed again.

CCTV spent almost ten minutes focusing on the planting of new soybean varieties in China, especially detailing the yield per mu, oil yield and other data of this new soybean variety.

These data made almost everyone who paid attention to this news stunned...
After all, if these data are true, then the world of the soybean market is really going to change.

Wang Lu was also paying attention to the news in the market. After the demise of authoritative media like CCTV, the effect was indeed different.

Almost as soon as the news was broadcast, the market value of the four major grain giants ushered in turmoil.

Even the four major grain giants themselves can't sit still. After all, this is not gossip this time. This is basically the news released by Chinese officials.

If they don't respond, expect to suffer big losses!

So that day, the four major grain giants held a press conference.

The person who appeared at the press conference was Raymond, the director of Cargill that Wang Lu had met in London before. It seemed that this guy's status was quite high in Cargill.

Wang Lu also clicked on the live broadcast of the press conference, and then saw Director Raymond speaking arrogantly to the media at the press conference:
"The Chinese are lying to the whole world. It is completely impossible for their soybean varieties to surpass the existing soybeans we have. This is a despicable conspiracy and academic fraud! I strongly condemn this fraudulent behavior. I I doubt they even figure out what the genes of soybeans are!”
