Chapter 688: . Nothing to gain (4/5)


The fierce auction lasted until the evening. Wang Bo didn't see any sheep breeds he was interested in, so he didn't take any further action and was ready to take a few sheep back home.
The auction ended in the dark of the evening, and the next day, the auction lasted two days.
However, he did not intend to stay, because there was no demand, and he participated in this auction simply for fun and insight.
The party went outside. On the road, he saw someone surrounded by a pickup truck with headlights on it. The lights were shining, and a cowboy hat farmer and several cows beside him were clearly illuminated.
"What is this?" Wang Bo asked.
Thomas said: "This is an additional auction. The theme of this auction is that livestock such as sheep, cows and mules cannot enter the venue. But some people also want to participate, so what should I do? Just while the meeting is over, attract Everyone pays attention. "
Wang Bo was not interested and wanted to leave, but he glanced back to see that the queen to be auctioned had some interest.
The color of the ox hair appearing in the light is brownish-yellow, the head is extremely burly, the body length is basically more than three meters, the shoulder height is about one meter, the man is large and covered with hair, and the head is very different. Hairy, curly hair, like the bangs that killed Mattei boys, can cover their eyes.
He hadn't seen such a cow before and walked unconsciously.
From a near perspective, I can feel the extraordinaryness of this kind of cattle. They have strong muscles and large double-angled curves. Some of them are straight forward and then straight up, while others are straight and straight forward. long.
Compared with similarly-shaped Angus cattle, this kind of cattle has shorter limbs and short legs, which makes them particularly interesting in appearance:
Non-mainstream bangs make them look cool, their short legs and beaked mouths make them look cute, and the beautiful long horns give them a nobleness ...
"This is a highland cattle, a descendant of European bison, one of the special cattle from Scotland to New Zealand, why, you are interested?" Thomas recognized the identity of these cattle at a glance.
Wang Bo said with interest: "These cattle are not bad, and they are very interesting."
Thomas said: "Are you looking? Well, it's really interesting, but if you want to breed, then you have to be careful, these guys are not good-natured gentlemen."
Bidding has already begun. This time there are ten bulls and one hundred cows to be auctioned. The starting price for the total price is $ 1.8 million.
Wang Bo checked the details of these cattle on the Internet. As Thomas said, this is a Scottish Highland cattle, a kind of cattle that is quite famous in Europe.
This kind of cattle and yak are a bit similar, they are very resistant to harsh environments, can eat poor quality rations and then do heavy physical labor.
They can survive in the snow and ice. From the appearance, these guys have thick fur, which can protect them from the bad weather.
Highland cattle have high meat and milk yields, and they have been the backbone of European farms for a long time: it supplies people with milk, meat and fur.
This is a kind of animal that has appeared in history for a long time. Now watching medieval European movies and TV shows, the knights often take horns to drink and drink. In fact, this is the horns of this kind of cattle.
The horns can be used as water cups, and the cowhide is more versatile. There is a saying in Scotland: The knight took the copper nails and highland cowhide to the world. The meaning of this sentence is that copper nails and highland cowhide can become a good tent, sheltering from the wind and rain.
Of course, modern highland cowhide is not used to make tents, which is too luxurious, but used to make clothes, belts and shoes. Playboys, crocodiles and other famous brand leather products are produced from highland cowhide.
It stands to reason that such an excellent cow should have been popularized long ago, but it is not that simple.
Highland cattle can mate and breed all year round. Normally, they are partners of one male and multiple females. Among them, the gestation period of the cow is about 9 months, and each child can produce 1 to 2 babies.
But this is just what it looks like. This cow has a strange temper, fierce and quiet, and there is a love metaphor in Scotland:
Love is like a highland bull, even a very tamed highland bull. Whenever the red mist falls, they are no longer gentle and will become angry bisons. When this happens, it is best to let it go.
Highland cattle can have estrus in four seasons, but the number of estrus is very few, and the estrus is very irregular. It was still quietly grazing in the last second. Maybe the next seed suddenly wanted to have a shot.
In order to protect the cows, the farm generally does not carry out polyculture. When the ranchers find that the bulls need the cows and are ready, the bulls usually calm down again ...
Wang Bo suddenly laughed when he saw this. What are the offspring of bison, this is a group of non-mainstream, oh no, it should be said to be non-main cow.
The price of this kind of cattle is relatively high, and it is very popular in the country. He doesn't understand why it should be put up for auction.
Thomas answered his question: "Because everyone had a difficult time in the last breeding season, some ranchers still owed money to the bank. If the funds were to be turned around, they would have to buy some property."
The starting price of a batch of 1.8 million cattle is converted into RMB, but this is close to 10 million, and the price is not high.
However, according to the information found by Wang Bo and Thomas's introduction, this price is very suitable. The price of cows is good. Bulls are very valuable. It is normal to sell one for $ 58,000.
This shows that the ranchers of New Zealand are rich and generous, and a batch of cattle can be sold to repay 10 million yuan of funds, but it also shows their pressure.
For tens of millions of cattle, if a cow is not infected with any disease and a large number of cattle die, it can really force people to commit suicide.
Net worth, not hairy, this rule does not know national boundaries.
There were a lot of 1.8 million people watching these people at the scene, but not many were able to use the money to buy a batch of highland cattle.
Raising such a herd is a very serious matter. You must have a veterinarian with relevant skills, you must choose a good breeding site, and you must be fully prepared. Otherwise, if one link is wrong, the money will be lost.
Therefore, there were many people watching the scene, but none of them really offered the price.
Wang Bo held his arms for a while and saw that no one bid, and he finally raised his hand: "1.8 million!"
The owner of the Highland Cattle is about to leave. This price is the lowest price he can accept, no matter how low he would prefer to keep it by himself.
Hearing someone ’s offer, he was immediately overjoyed, and turned around and shouted, "Ok, someone has bid! 1.8 million! 1.8 million, guys, 1.8 million for the first time! What a good highland cow Come, look at their teeth, look at their eyes, can you buy them back? "(To be continued.)
