Chapter 37 Maasai people
If Wang Lu’s idea were heard by professional implant professionals, he would probably laugh out loud.
A bottle of herbicide can do the job, but if you have to raise thousands of chickens, wouldn’t you be a fool?
After all, just one guinea fowl chick costs three US dollars, but for Wang Lu, this is not a problem at all.
Even if you purchase 10,000 guinea fowl seedlings at one time, it only costs 30,000 US dollars. Moreover, the number of guinea fowls that can be supported by the pasture area in the southern Woulu Mountains is a huge number. Besides, purchasing guinea fowl seedlings can cost a lot of money.
It is not a pure expenditure, but an investment.
An adult guinea fowl sells for as much as twenty-five dollars, making it profitable even for pure breeding.
What's more, it can help Wang Lu solve the problem of grass seeds in the cultivated fields, which is even more cost-effective. No matter how you look at it, this is not a loss-making deal.
With such a unique piece of pasture, Wang Lu didn't want to eat food with herbicides added.
So Wang Lu did not hesitate to find Harris, a somewhat naive character, and planned to order a batch of guinea fowl seedlings.
Of course, the land Wang Lu is currently cultivating has not yet reached the point where he needs to purchase tens of thousands of guinea fowl seedlings. After all, at first he only planned to open a few acres of rice fields and grow some food to be self-sufficient, and at most add a few vegetables.
Land.
Based on the calculation of one hundred guinea fowl seedlings per acre, he planned to purchase a thousand guinea fowl seedlings from Harris in the early stage.
But for Harris, this is still a deal that can bring him considerable profits.
"King! I don't know how to thank you anymore. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to taste the deliciousness of those wild mushrooms. This has almost become a regret in my life."
At first, Wang Lu looked excited at this guy's innocent face and thought it was because he had brought him income, but he didn't expect that this guy was still thinking about the wild fungi that almost killed him.<
/p>
Mr. Harris, please be more careful...
Out of gratitude to Wang Lu, one thousand guinea fowl seedlings that could forage on their own were urgently transported to Wang Lu's pasture.
And there was no need for Wang Lu to make special arrangements. Under the leadership of the Chinese old hen, the guinea fowl seedlings aggressively occupied the land that had been turned over by the rotary tiller.
Compared with those grass nests on the surface, they can more easily search for high-quality food such as grass seeds and insects in the upturned soil.
"Boss, you are a genius! If this rate continues, the number of grass seeds in these reclaimed lands will be greatly reduced in a short period of time. I have never found these guinea fowls to be so useful!"
Parker looked excited as he looked at the guinea fowl scattered all over the field.
Wang Lu smiled. He didn't expect these guinea fowls to be able to wipe out all the grass seeds in the ground. However, once the number of grass seeds buried in the soil dropped to a certain level, there would be no climate change.
At most, it will just be a matter of picking up a few more manuscripts.
Night fell quietly, and after having dinner, Parker set off with his rifle and a walkie-talkie on his waist.
This thing was a friendly gift from the owner of the firearms retail store after Wang Lu spent 6,000 US dollars. It is quite practical and can be used for hunting in the mountains or for daily management of the pasture.
Wang Lu was still thinking about the main cash crops that could be grown in the large tract of reclaimable land in the southern Woulu Mountains.
This forced Wang Lu to search for some information online to see if he could find anything.
But before Wang Lu could open the search engine, a call came in. Looking at the name on the call notification, Wang Lu was a little surprised.
It's James, a well-known local businessman.
Wang Lu soon remembered that he had asked him to help him contact coffee dealers before returning to China.
As expected, James came just for this matter.
As soon as the call was connected, James' tone was a little apologetic, which gave Wang Lu some bad premonitions.
"King! I'm sorry that I betrayed your trust. Those damn coffee merchants were too short-sighted. They missed an excellent opportunity!"
"No need to be sorry James. In fact, you are worthy of gratitude for your willingness to help me. No one in this world can guarantee that everything will go smoothly, but I want to know some specific details."
Wang Lu probably knows that no coffee merchant is interested in the wild coffee produced in his ranch.
"You know, except for the wildebeests in Serengeti National Park, which is most famous for this place, it is not a traditional coffee producing area. The most famous local coffee varieties are distributed near the Kilimanjaro Mountains, so
Those coffee merchants are not interested in coffee from other regions, and the scale of coffee production in your ranch is not enough to give those greedy guys more motivation."
Through James' words, Wang Lu finally understood the reason.
In fact, James' words are quite euphemistic, that is, no one will be interested in some miscellaneous coffees that have little value at all when grown in the wild.
The reason why the cat poop coffee is valuable is because the civet cats give it value.
And those coffees without the blessing of civet cats are obviously not attractive enough.
"Short-sighted guy!"
After hanging up the phone, Wang Lu also cursed secretly. After all, he knew clearly that the quality of the coffee beans produced in the Woulu Mountains was definitely not bad!
"Boss, guess what, he is a completely inexperienced thief, I have already caught him!"
Wang Lu's thoughts were interrupted again, this time by Parker's voice coming from the intercom.
Wang Lu suddenly sat up from the bed, hugged Xiao Wangcai, who was already a little confused, and walked out.
From a long distance away, Wang Lu could see the bright light of a flashlight, which was at the foot of the outer mountains of the Woulu Mountains.
Heading in this direction, Wang Lu soon saw Parker's ox-like body after crossing the Dome River, pressing on a thin figure.
Parker was an expert in fighting skills. He could easily choke the guy underneath him and immobilize him. He also let out bursts of shouts, but they were all words that Wang Lu couldn't understand.
"It's a Maasai kid. I caught this guy in the middle of the pine forest, and he didn't even notice me."
Parker proudly reported the battle situation. Under the illumination of the flashlight, Wang Lu discovered the dark face with a rather distinctive braid.
Thin, young but stubborn, no more than sixteen or seventeen years old.
