The Rise of the Ranch King

Chapter 171 170. The idea of ​​forage business

Lin Feng planned to take Bai Ling for a ride and go to the other side to see if David, who was harvesting forage, was lazy.

After a brief communication with Bailu, I got its consent. In fact, it was not considered "communication". Bailu had only stayed in the small world for one day and was not as spiritual as Wayne.

Lin Feng put Bai Ling on the horse, but Bai Ling didn't show anything. This was his acquiescence.

So he and Jasmine rode eastward, with four dogs chasing after them.

The white deer also followed. It ran much faster than the dog, and was good at making sharp turns. These were escape skills honed by years of survival in the wild.

Although pumas, the top predator on the North American continent, can reach speeds of 70 kilometers per hour, their endurance is not as good as that of deer. If pumas keep running at top speed for too long, their hearts may not be able to bear it.

Nature is interconnected, and there is no absolute king or absolute weakling.

Going too fast can also be dangerous. In Pennsylvania, there are as many as 11 collisions between cars and white-tailed deer each year.

Lin Feng had been in danger before. At that time, he was driving a pickup truck on Highway 191, and suddenly a car rushed up from the side. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough to change the direction, otherwise the guy would have flown in directly through the windshield. .

Rabbits have to dig many holes in their lives, and they will vent some of their energy by digging holes during their fertilization period.

"Yeah, this is the first time I've seen it look so embarrassed." Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh.

Two primates, four dogs, two deer, two horses.

"Looks like Wayne has met his match," Jasmine said with a smile.

At the same time, the Wolverine family was outside basking in the sun, watching with wide eyes the large army whizzing by.

The elegant policewoman shot on horseback and accurately hit the little cutie!

He stretched out his hand to count to Charlie next to him, "BOSS, BOSSGIRL, Wayne, David, Charlie, Harry, Bai Lu, Bai Ling, Jueying and Miss Lishan."

It's Jasmine.

Lin Feng whistled, and the dogs pounced on him, and the white deer also joined in the fun.

Today, Bai Lu taught him a lesson.

Suddenly a hare appeared in front of me!

There is a small hill of earth reaching the ankle next to it, and it seems that it is digging a hole.

Not to be outdone, Wayne insisted on competing with Bai Lu.

As a result, he was fooled by the opponent's agility. This was the first time Lin Feng saw Caucasus in such a mess.

Although Wayne was brave, he was a little weak in this game.

The hare said, "You are noble and awesome. You brought dogs and deer to fuck me. If you don't dig up your pasture to the ground, I won't give up..."

Seeing a large army coming, David couldn't help shouting.

Whenever it thinks it is about to catch up with the white deer, the opponent can always pull away again with an elegant turn or a quick jump.

Lin Feng and Jia Simin watched the chase from a distance, while the other three dogs barked happily beside them, cheering for the contest.

They gradually approached the place where David was harvesting grass, and they could see David's busy figure in the distance. Amidst the roar of the machine, pieces of pasture were neatly cut, emitting a faint scent of grass.

boom!

However, before the guy could announce his home, a gunshot rang out and the hare died.

After the weather warms up, the hares also start working on auspicious days.

David looked up at the sky and saw that the big golden eagle was there too. The guy was eager to swoop down to join the party.

"Hey BOSS, are you planning to make a Zootopia movie?" David said with a smile.

Lin Feng looked back and saw that the long team of animals was indeed magical. He was now the captain of this team, and the team behind him would follow him wherever he went.

Bai Ling in his arms was very excited, looking out with his head and sniffing around with his nose. Fearing that he was not hungry, Lin Feng carefully placed it on the ground.

The little guy jumped towards the hay pile, lay down on it and started gnawing!

The freshly harvested grass has a pleasant grassy fragrance, which is quite refreshing when inhaled.

Lin Feng breathed heavily, and Jasmine was doing the same thing.

There was a lawnmower hanging on the back of the tractor, and the grass fell to the ground in the place where it had been worked. It would be finished later with a baler and dragged back to the large warehouse.

Then post it to the website for sale, and buyers will come to you.

In the best time of winter, you can buy it for close to three hundred dollars per ton. Of course, this stuff comes in different grades. According to the standards of the United States Department of Agriculture, forage is divided into special grade, first grade, second grade and third grade.

Most of them are between the first and second levels, special grades are rare, and there are also not many hot chickens in the third grade.

Of course, you can't sell too much, otherwise it will attract investigation from relevant departments.

According to federal agricultural laws, pasture is not allowed to be harvested too frequently. Otherwise, it will consume the land excessively and face sky-high fines.

Lin Feng roughly calculated the cost of raising cattle in winter. When kept in a cowshed, a cow needs to eat about 30 kilograms of forage a day. Three hundred cows consume 9 tons of grass a day. The calf eats less, so it is calculated as 6 tons.

The total is close to 200 tons in one month, and at least to tons in the whole winter. Taking the middle price of forage, these animals have eaten nearly US dollars of forage in one winter.

It’s not that I didn’t know, but I was shocked to see that just from selling grass, the income would be considerable.

If these cows can't get themselves the money of a cash transport truck, they will really be sorry for their efforts.

Charlie came over and said, "BOSS, the calves will be ready for slaughter next month, and we can sell some of the forage by then."

Lin Feng nodded, "Can the pasture be sold in advance? I want to get some funds back as soon as possible, and then I can buy a new batch of calves."

"Of course, you can put the grass online now."

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has a special website where you can see agricultural product sales information across the United States, which is very easy to operate.

"Then hang it up now. If you sell it early, you can still get a good price."

Charlie looked back at the tractor, "No problem, we can sell 100 tons now."

Lin Feng was a little surprised, "So many?"

Charlie smiled and nodded, "Yes, in less than a month since the beginning of spring, our pasture has grown into something that only takes three months in other pastures, so it is equivalent to harvesting in advance."

One hundred tons can be sold for as little as 20 yuan. If it weren't for the fact that the old Americans had too many tortoises, he would have wanted to be the "King of Montana Forage."

Buying land to grow grass, selling grass and then buying land, relying on the small world to cycle back and forth, and a steady stream of money is put into one's pocket.

However, the demand is only so great, and too much supply of forage means that it cannot be sold at a high price, and it ends up being squeezed and rotting in the warehouse.

Lin Feng still plans to test the bottom line of the Ministry of Agriculture and make a fortune by relying on his own advantages.

Charlie added: "I guess the Ministry of Agriculture will keep an eye on us, but don't worry too much, I will take care of it."

He has acquaintances in the city hall and can find out whether the limelight is tight this year. In addition, he can also roughly calculate the upper limit of the Ministry of Agriculture's tolerance for land use through formula calculations.

At this time David came over, "Charlie, you used a gun to deal with them?"

"of course not."

Charlie pointed to his head.

It dawned on David, "Oh, use your Mediterranean."
