Rural life in America

Chapter 67 has been produced (please recommend and collect!)

When the ranch was first acquired, I bought 37 cows, but after half a year of development, the cows with calves at the beginning also added [-] new cows to the ranch, so the ranch now has a total of [-] cows, which is a good scale.

It's just that the cows are going to be sold now, and the cows are basically not sold, except for the two cows that Zhang Hao believes are not suitable for giving birth; as for the bulls, the few cows that have been eliminated from the candidate list of breeding cattle are all for sale. , so Zhang Hao still has six cows suitable for sale at this stage, and the few cows that have grown up after a while can naturally be sold.

The little girl Xixi is a typical crazy person. Knowing that her father is going to the cattle pen, the little girl insists on arguing to go; instead of taking a car, she insists on riding a horse.

Zhang Hao was very distressed, he rode in front; Xixi rode her little pony, and it was okay to follow at a leisurely pace. There was even a small cloth bag hanging around the little girl's neck. There are about twenty strawberries and cherries in total. It seems that this little girl will not seriously hurry until she finishes eating this amount of fruit.

Looking back helplessly, the little fat man happily swung its short legs. This little pony, which is a little taller than an adult dog, didn't want to run faster. Its unhurried pace made people In a hurry, Zhang Hao felt that he walked faster than the little fat man.

As for Xixi, this unsatisfactory glutton has long forgotten the rein, and the rein is dragged on the ground like this; as for Xixi, the fruit with both eyes fixed on it, strawberries in the left hand and cherries in the right, and a small mouth stuffed to the brim.

Fortunately, I put a bib on the little girl before I left, otherwise the clean clothes I wore in the morning would be dirty.

He didn't even plan to talk to Xixi, Xixi was very focused when eating, and interrupting Xixi to eat was actually causing trouble for himself; Zhang Hao, who knew his precious daughter very well, would naturally not cause trouble for himself, he was sure.

"Dad, let's play."

Sure enough, after eating, Xixi immediately became alive and well, and the little girl was excited; she asked for a horse race restlessly, but the little girl didn't think about it, and her precious horse ran faster than adults.

But Zhang Hao will definitely agree, "Okay, then you run first, and Dad will chase after you!"

The little girl immediately waved her little hands vigorously and shouted, "Drive, drive, drive!"

Sure enough, that was the case, even if Xixi shouted very enthusiastically, people who didn't know would think that the little girl's mount was a bloody BMW.But the real situation is very simple and clear. Xixi's baby pony pony's four short and fat hooves started to swing, but the result was still not as good as Zhang Hao's long legs.

Naturally, it took about an hour to get to the cattle pen with Xixi, because the speed of the pony was too anxious.

But Zhang Hao just went to watch the excitement, and Greg and his son can basically handle everything, not to mention Zhang Hao's father is also helping; Happy things are naturally very concerned.

The transport vehicle has arrived, and the next thing is to verify the body of the cattle to be sold one by one, weigh them and transport them to the vehicle; in this way, Zhang Hao basically only needs to wait for the receipt of the check, and he does not need to pay too much attention to the beef. It's nothing to do with slaughtering, grading, and transporting them to the truck.

Like many domestic retail households raising pigs, as long as the pigs are transported away; selling is a matter for slaughterhouses and pig killers, and many ranchers actually operate in this way.

Seeing the boss coming, Greg, who was busy, came over with a smile on his face, "Boss, our cattle are quite good, and the price will definitely not be too low. I believe it may reach ten dollars per pound!"

Of course Zhang Hao is very satisfied with this price, because an Angus bull can weigh more than 800 kilograms, that is, more than 800 pounds.At such a price, a cow would earn more than fifteen thousand dollars.

This is a cow of good quality, so the purchase price may reach nearly ten dollars; if it is a cow of average quality, it is very likely that the purchase unit is based on cents.

As for the internal organs, bones, blood and other problems of the cattle transported from the pasture, that is not a problem; when buying pigs and cattle in China, I did not see those farmers who sold the pigs and cattle after they were slaughtered. The pig butcher thing.

What's more, those guys can't lose money. The price they bought was a few dollars, but when they were delivered to shopping malls and restaurants, the price might be tens of dollars.

The restless Xixi ran away a long time ago to find her grandpa.

The little girl was very enlightened like a rancher's daughter. Although she was held by her grandpa, she still held a small stick and followed the cows from a long distance, pretending to be driving them.

Zhang Hao was very happy, because he was going to make a lot of money; although these cattle cost some money when they were bought, and the cost of raising them was also high, it is certain that Zhang Hao still made a lot of money.

Zhang Hao sighed and said to Greg, "It is still necessary to breed higher quality cattle, otherwise the purchase price will be very low. We need to work harder. Although these cattle are good now, I believe they still have potential .”

Greg was very dissatisfied with the boss's greed. He joked, "Boss, you have to know that your income is already very good. Many ranchers' annual income is not as good as your cattle, even if their herd is bigger. .”

Zhang Hao glanced at Greg complacently, and felt that Greg must now know what it means to know the great ambitions of a chick, "Old guy, think about my investment in this ranch, and you will understand that these incomes are not worth it at all." What is it. And you have to know that I have a special feed, if I haven’t made more money under this premise, I will consider changing my career.”

Greg really didn't understand the boss's greed. He felt that the boss had already made a lot of money, "Boss, your cattle are not only of good quality. You also need to understand that the growth cycle of these cattle is [-]/[-] shorter than that of ordinary cattle. One, it means your income has increased a lot too.”

Zhang Hao stared at Greg with wide eyes, "Don't you consider the cost of technology? Well, my technology is priceless, and their value is definitely not just that. So dude, I will give you some bonuses, but you need Keep up the good work, our ranch is only just getting started and we have a bright future ahead."

Hearing what the boss said, Greg decisively forgot the previous topic. He didn’t need to care about the boss’s investment in capital and technology. Now he was thinking about how much bonus the boss would give him. Expand, will his income be more.

This is the joy of a good harvest, and I have more expectations because I have tasted the sweetness.

Six cattle were slaughtered, all bulls, with an average weight of 850 pounds per head.Although there are some small differences in the quality of these cattle, in general the difference is not big; so the average price has reached [-] US dollars, a slaughter price that many ranchers would envy.

Zhang Hao made a fortune, the six cows brought him one hundred thousand dollars!
These are only six cows, and there are still thirty cows in his pasture; and among the remaining cows, there are some potential breeding cows, which will definitely produce better quality after breeding, which means Income will continue to increase.

He kissed the check fiercely. Although Zhang Hao had seen a check with a larger amount, he had also made more money; but as a ranch owner, this time the cattle were slaughtered was the first time he, a ranch owner, had seen the ranch have money. The output, the ranch that has been only invested but not output has finally reaped something, and Zhang Hao saw the money back!
Zhang Hao is very satisfied after selling six cows and getting some money back; he no longer thinks about how much he spent on buying the ranch, how much breeding costs or other investments during this period, he only knows about the ranch. The income is not cheap.

Yu Xiu also smiled. She didn't know how much the ranch would earn, but she knew that the ranch could make money.

Zhang Jianye knew these things well, so he asked: "Xiaohao, let's not talk about the money for buying land, we count the cost of breeding. I bought a lot of pasture this year, and Greg's wages, it's not much, right? Can a cow make ten thousand dollars?"

Zhang Hao nodded complacently, "The cost of simple breeding is really not high. If you can't earn [-] US dollars, you will be finished. Our ranch has just been built this year, and the cattle are mainly bought, and the cost is higher. But even if I Taking out the money for buying land and fodder, one cow can earn less than [-] U.S. dollars. At the current rate, the money for buying pastures and the investment in changing pastures will definitely pay back within three years, and they will continue to make money in the future. .”

Hearing this answer, Zhang Jianye and Yu Xiu smiled even more happily; they both knew that their youngest son could raise cattle and match feed, so the cattle raised could earn so much, and other ranches did not have such a high profit.Now why do they care that the youngest son has never raised cattle before? In their opinion, Zhang Hao is a genius.

But Yu Xiu suddenly remembered, and said, "You can't calculate it this way. The profit is high if you simply calculate it this way, but there is also a tax. If the tax is deducted, your profit will not be so high."

Zhang Hao smiled triumphantly, "Based on the income of our ranch, the tax to be paid is quite high. However, the tax in the United States does not mean that you pay according to your income. Simply put, it is the money you earn and then deduct the money you consume. , the remaining part is the tax threshold. We have been buying land, which encourages consumption and investment in the United States, and can reduce or exempt taxes. Otherwise, I would not let the boss take the money from the horse race. Put it in my account, we won’t be able to pay much tax this year, and an accountant will help me calculate it.”

Yu Xiu, who has been in the United States for a long time, sighed suddenly: "It has always been said that Americans are most afraid of the IRS, and the things that Americans can't escape in their lives are paying taxes and death. But it seems that the rich in the United States are reasonable. There are many ways to avoid taxation, and I never thought that one day my son would do the same."

Zhang Hao smiled and said, "It's just started, low-key, low-key. We must pay more and more taxes in the future, but we must also avoid more and more taxes reasonably. How reasonable are the tax avoidances?" It's not bad, it should be a little more!"
