MTL - The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm-Chapter 983 The school grass's first love who took a check and went abroad (21)
Chapter 983 The first love of the school grass who took the check and went abroad (21)
There is a grape-growing manor in Queenstown, and the harvested grapes are used to make white wine. It is said that it is very popular among local residents and foreign tourists.
Xu Yin went to the farm to purchase oat seeds and potatoes in the morning, and visited the vineyard in the afternoon.
New Zealand's white wine is better than red wine.
White wine can be made from white grapes or from skinless purple grapes.
In terms of taste, white wine made from white grapes tastes better.
Doing as the Romans do, Xu Yin plans to grow white grapes and learn local winemaking techniques to make white wine.
She doesn’t store too much purple grapes and red wine in her system space, so she won’t grow them this time.
I stayed in Queenstown for five days. After finishing the business, I started to purchase: 50 catties of freshly slaughtered Angus beef, two hams, and I went to a nearby seaside town to buy a freshly landed one. Fresh salmon, a few big crabs, two baskets of super-quality oysters and a pile of unknown miscellaneous fish and shellfish, fresh fish, shrimp and shellfish, and the stewed seafood pot are super delicious.
In New Zealand in the late 1980s, the price of seafood was really cheap.
Xu Yin sighed deeply, if it wasn't for the calf tail payment, sheep calf payment, fruit tree seedlings and workers' wages in the spring, the expenditure is not small, so I dare not buy a lot, I can only buy a little to satisfy my appetite, otherwise I really want to stay here longer God, wait for the next fishing boat to dock and stock up on a wave of super delicious wild seafood.
So we still have to work hard to make money!
Xu Yin pondered, there is nothing else to do in winter, why not work hard to develop electric wool 3.0?
With a plan in mind, he returned to Cooktown.
Seafood These motorcycles are more difficult to bring. In the end, only a basket of oysters and two sea crabs were left outside.
She didn't hoard a catty of fresh beef. After raising cattle next year, how much fresh beef do you want to eat?
Instead, he cut a small piece of ham and gave it to the cook as an extra meal, and hoarded the rest.
"Sean is back!" Seeing her, Mrs. Hunter happily came out to greet her, "Is the journey going well?"
"smoothly."
Even the unsatisfactory situation was solved by her.
Not long after I left Queenstown, I found that I was being targeted by a small pickup truck, probably because she was a single woman who bought so many things, and wanted to rob her of money and sex.
When she arrived in an open area, she deliberately slowed down, waiting for the other party to stop her happily, and when she wanted to do something wrong, she killed the other party, knocked him unconscious, tied him up and threw him at the gate of the police station.
Stalking and robbery are so proficient, maybe they are habitual offenders.
As for the money on those two people, she took it to refuel. It takes a lot of gas to go around the police station, okay?
Fill up the fuel tank, and buy a few extra barrels of gasoline to store in the system warehouse.
There was such a small episode on the way back and forth, but everything else went smoothly.
"The calves are ordered. Eighty male calves and twenty female calves. I have learned a lot of cattle raising skills from the rancher over there. If Mr. Hunter is worried, please claim them. I will raise them. The situation will be good next year, and you will raise it yourself from the next year onwards."
Claim?
The Hunters looked confused, that is to say, as long as they pay, they don't care about anything else?
Xu Yin continued: "When the calves arrive, you go and pick them out. I will mark the five bulls and one cow. Don't worry about pasture. My pasture is big enough for them to eat."
Mr. Hunter nodded. Although he decided to try raising Angus beef cattle with Sean, he was really worried. After all, this is the first time I have come into contact with beef cattle breeding, and I am worried that it will not be good enough.
If Xiao En is responsible for raising, he will go to help and study when he is free, and the psychological pressure will be reduced a lot in an instant. After accumulating a year of experience, he will know how to raise it in the future.
"Just won't it be too much trouble for you?"
"Won't."
More than 90 pigs have been raised, and there are only six pigs left?
"I also want to ask Old William to order a batch of meat goat calves, and by the way, ask Old William if he wants to claim the beef cattle."
Xu Yin cut five catties of fresh beef and planned to go to the pasture next door.
"Let's go to the mayor's house too. His family may want to raise them." Mr. Hunter said, "He came over the day you went to the south. He seems to be interested in raising beef cattle."
"OK."
Xu Yin took another five catties of fresh beef, and asked the cook to cook the rest.
Today's rain is filled with snow particles, and I want to eat beef and mutton in a pot.
Mrs. Hunter couldn't help laughing: "As soon as Sean comes back, our meals will go up."
The cook is also happy: "Xiao En's hometown food is not only delicious, but also easy to make. Just a few days ago, I made a pot of broth with sheep bones, and it can be boiled on the stove. I will wash some vegetables, and the staple food is potatoes. Pie. Does Sean like potatoes?"
Xu Yin: "..."
I want to eat mashed potatoes.
She chewed the mutton jerky stuffed by Mrs. Hunter, and went to Old William's pasture first.
Old William knew that she had gone to the south to inspect beef cattle breeding a few days ago, so he asked her how the inspection was going with a smile.
"It went well. The contract has been signed, the deposit has been paid, and the goods will be delivered in the spring." Xu Yin then asked, "Do you want to raise one? Mr. Hunter was worried that he would not have experience in the first year, so he claimed six from me. For the head, I only pay for the calf, and I will be responsible for the rest. If you are interested, I can share a few of them with you."
Old William was certainly interested.
You only need to pay for the calf to claim it, and you don’t have to worry about anything else. Even if you don’t sell it to the buyer, it’s good to slaughter it yourself and eat it.
Even if the calf is not cultivated in the end, the loss is only the money to buy the calf.
But if it is well-raised, it is equivalent to spending the money of a calf in exchange for an adult bull. This is a very good deal.
But will it be too much for Sean?
Xu Yin laughed and said: "It's okay, I should just thank everyone for taking care of me this year. And it's only the first year. If you want to raise me in the future, you have to come by yourself."
"Of course."
Old William claimed two bulls.
Anyway, with Sean's, he didn't want a cow.
After that, Xu Yin explained why he came, saying that he wanted to ask his family to buy goat calves.
But Old William’s family doesn’t raise many meat goats. Maintaining the current scale, there are not many lambs to spare, and they can only provide fifty at most.
However, he introduced Xu Yin to two other pastures. The meat goat breeding scale is much larger than his family's, and it should be able to make up 250 lambs.
In this way, three hundred lambs arrived as planned.
Worried that it would rain heavily, Xu Yin didn't stay long, and took the gift from old William - a leg of lamb and a bucket of goat milk, and rode a motorbike to the mayor's house in a coir raincoat.
The mayor accepted the fresh beef she sent, and returned her two bottles of homemade fruit wine and a can of blueberry jam. The homemade blueberry jam didn't add any additives, and it was delicious to eat with sliced bread.
Before Xu Yin could say anything, the mayor expressed his willingness to raise beef cattle with her, but his family mainly ran farms, and they couldn't spare enough land to raise cattle, so they could only raise a few cattle.
Xu Yin said: "I can spare two ends for your family. In the first year, everyone was worried that they would not be able to raise them well, so they just let me raise them. My land is large, so there is no need to worry about pasture. I have already bought enough seeds, and the spring will start. Just broadcast it."
When the mayor heard that he could still claim it, he said happily, "Then I'll ask Willai to help you when I'm free."
Xu Yin did not object.
She is indeed short of manpower. By the way, she asked the mayor to help keep an eye on people who come to Cook Town to find work. She will recruit a lot of workers in the spring.
