Chapter 80
There are not many people in the auction hall, which are simple and cannot be simple. There are not many people in the two rows of iron simple stands facing each other. There are only sixty or seventy people in total, and there are still groups of three or five.
Don’t underestimate these people. Buying livestock is not like that in China. These people need at least six or eight. For example, Jian Heng is definitely not one or two people who buy dozens of small heads at once.
Jian Hengren easily found a location. Although it was not the best, there was no problem to see the animals in the auction.
I looked down at the steps and found that there was nothing on it. As for footprints, it was very common, mainly to see if there was any bird shit or chewing gum.
After living in the United States for a period of time, you will find that the so-called American quality is just that, far less high than some of the big Americans in China said.
The few people chose the ground without any dry bird shit or footprints, so Jian Heng did not dust the dust on it and sat down with his pants.
Barley and wheat have now changed their image and are no longer dressed in a fashion-style girl. Now the top is a dark shirt and jeans on the lower body. They don’t have to wear some tassels on the waist, or some accessories on half-high leather boots, which is no different from the dressing of ordinary cowgirls.
Of course, the appearance of the two of them is so good that even ordinary clothes can be worn by them to create a fashionable and attractive effect.
Let’s talk about it today, after walking around here, countless young cowboys were chasing the figures of the two sisters and were reluctant to leave. From time to time, there were also brave and shameless people coming over to try to make a few words.
At this time, Zhang Jialiang and Zhao Changshan sat directly behind Jian Heng, one hamburger each, with a double portion of bacon, a large piece of beef, and the whole hamburger was so big that it could not be grasped by one hand. They held each of them and ate it hard, as if Jian Heng hadn't let them eat for a few days.
"It's going to start!" Jian Heng saw that at the end of the iron rack, a fancy-dressed cowboy was crawling into the elevator bucket, so he whispered to remind the two gluttonous men behind him who were enjoying the delicious food.
The denim dress is almost eighty-point like Zhang Jialiang before, which shows how exaggerated this guy was dressed at that time.
The denim was wearing an off-white denim hat, a colored jacket with tassels on the upper body, white trousers on the lower body, a carved leather pants cover on the outside, a few centimeters of tassels on the side, and a pair of colored leather boots with spurs on their feet.
The denim had no microphone in his hand, but he just wore a very simple microphone in his ear, and the speaker was placed under the elevator.
The lift was about two meters high and reached the top. The cowboy holding the railing felt that the lift paused and knew that his work was about to start.
“hello, hello!”
After trying Mai, I felt that there was no problem. This guy didn't have any opening remarks and started saying, "The time is almost over, how are you? Are you going to start today's auction?"
After saying that, he didn't wait for everyone to answer. He took a look at the hand card in his hand and began to introduce the first batch of cattle, from the breed of cattle to the ranch provided, and the age range.
The host said, and a few cowboys drove the cows into the simple auction from the entrance to the west.
The first batch of bulls were some little bulls. Jian Heng had no interest in these bulls and was quietly waiting for the next batch.
Jian Heng’s lack of interest does not mean that others are not interested. Some ranchers like one or several of them. Judging from their physique and pace, the calf may grow well, so they bid.
There are not many people competing for it, and at most they only have two or three rounds of bidding, and the deal can be completed in the end.
The first batch of cows sold well, and almost half of them sold, and the cowboys who drove out directly separated the sold cows from the unsold cows at the venue. When they exported from the east, the sold cows rushed to the southeast, while the last cows left the site from the northeast.
After two rounds of these, the first round of cows that Jian Heng liked appeared. More than a dozen heifers, who were half a year old, had poor physique or were not considered bad, and they were not lost.
"This is not good! I think it's better to spend a little more money to choose a calf with a slightly higher grade!" Damai was a little suspicious of Jian Heng's vision.
After hearing his sister's words, Xiaomai nodded in agreement: "Although you feel you have saved money now, you will regret today's choice in a year."
Such cattle are not a good choice for the pasture. First of all, these heifers are small in size. Although they have not grown completely now, judging from the performance of these heifers, if they want to achieve a satisfactory physique in the future, the chances are almost the same as winning the lottery.
The small cows mean that the calves they produce in the future are likely to be small due to genetic reasons.
The size of a cow is too small, and the first thing that affects the meat production is the amount. Think about which one is 800 kilograms of cattle or 600 kilograms of cattle? So such calfs are not popular, and they are usually slaughtering companies.
"These calves have not grown yet! If you don't believe it, you will take a look next year. They will definitely be strong!" Jian Heng didn't care what the two sisters said at all, and directly stretched out his hand to signal the auction cowboy.
"Except for No. 12, No. 30, No. 17... No. 5, I want it all," Jian Heng shouted loudly.
Jian Heng heard the audience yelling like a little bit louder.
Jian Heng's words directly puzzled many ranchers, because it is understandable that Jian Heng eliminated No. 12. The heifer was too thin and he walked a little limp, and it was obvious that his legs were a little problem.
But in addition, the cow picked by Jian Heng is the best among these croups. At least the price is 10 to 20% higher than the cows that Jian Heng wants!
Jian Heng's words made the cowboys who didn't know Jian Heng whisper one after another. They thought that this was another rich Asian guy who didn't know the ranch at all, so they spent money to buy a ranch and then play house.
Jian Heng called out the lowest price, but no one was interested in adding it. The slaughtering company didn't want to spend money to grab these cattle with Jian Heng. For them, such a cattle are available every day. After the sale fails, the price can be slightly lower together, so why bother raising the price?
The cowboy auctioneer shouted three times and announced the deal. The old rancher whose hair had fallen out when he drove the cow in, now he was as happy as eating honey. Before he could drive the cow out, he couldn't help but lift the edge of the hat in the direction of Jian Heng and expressed his kindness.
He smiled at the old cowboy, and Jian Heng said to Zhang Jialiang, who had already eaten the big burger and was burping, "Go and pick up the cows!"
After saying that, Jian Heng took out a check from his pocket with numbers. This thing was considered a deposit. If Jian Heng had no money to buy all the animals he took today, then the thing would be wasted. If the transaction was successful, of course there would be no trouble.
After stoking his fingers and wiping the clothes twice, Zhang Jialiang took the check, walked down the steps with Zhao Changshan, and walked towards the east exit.
As soon as he left the auction, Zhang Jialiang said to the staff with a work sign hanging on his chest: "My boss bought those cows!"
Jian Heng's shot was so amazing. The staff had noticed these faces long ago. Although they couldn't call Zhang Jialiang's name, there was no problem with recognizing people. They took them to work and handed the check.
This place is not only a place where the deposit is paid, but also a place where taxes are collected. There are people from the IRS waiting here to collect money.
After handing over the check, Zhang Jialiang and the others were led to the fence that was deposited into the cattle.
If you buy the cattle, you will drive your cattle to a temporary fence and wait for the final checkout quarantine and transportation.
As soon as the staff left, Zhang Jialiang and Zhao Changshan rode happily on the simple wooden fence and watched the new members of the ranch, laughing foolishly. Neither Zhang Jialiang nor Zhao Changshan had any real experience in working on the ranch, and now they find everything unique.
Zhao Changshan was fine, but Zhang Jialiang was completely unaware of what kind of trouble these things would bring to him in the future.
As time passed by, the number of animals on the two people's fences increased. There were already about forty heifers and three strong breeding bulls. In addition to the cattle, there were more than twenty sheep.
Jian Heng has already bought all the bulls he likes. Except for the three bulls who spent a little more money, the rest were all taken at the lowest price.
After the cows and sheep were finished, the next one was naturally the horse.
When the first batch of horses entered the field, three of them were attracted by Jian Heng. They were about to raise their hands, but they came to Jian Heng's side and began to say hello.
"Henry!" The visitor sat directly on Jian Heng's left hand.
Turning his head, Jian Heng laughed: "Juan, why are you here?"
After asking, I felt like I had said nonsense.
The person who came was Juan Lynch, who was a veterinarian in the town. He was over 60 years old. Jian Heng couldn't remember how old he was. The white old man was a little taller than Jian Heng. He was not only tall but also fat, but weighed about 250 kilograms, and he was a meat mountain.
The veterinarian is the most sensible thing to appear in the livestock auction. Either he is going to take on work, or someone has hired him to do a simple inspection of the livestock he is about to buy.
After replying to Old Lynch, Jian Heng raised his hand, then reached out and made a gesture, indicating that he would ask for No. 5, No. 7, No. 11, and three horses.
Jian Heng has tried to ride these three horses, and they are American flower horses. The flower horses are the kind with big spots on their bodies. Jian Heng just tried to ride a few steps and felt that these three horses are the most docile among this group of horses, and they are very well-trained, and the price is also cheap. The lowest price of each horse is only 320 US dollars.
Jian Heng thought no one was fighting with him, but who knew that there was another person in the field who liked three horses Jian Heng wanted. Not only that, they also liked the other two horses, each with a price of twenty dollars.
The price increase here has not ended, and another person in the field added twenty dollars to increase the price of the horse to 366!
Seeing this situation, Jian Heng turned his gaze instantly, wanting to see which one is stupid enough to add the price.
As soon as he saw someone, Jian Heng found that he had increased twenty more at the beginning of bidding. The two of them increased the price of a horse to $400.
Jian Heng was not interested in making stupid with them at all, so he shook his head and waved his hand to signal that he would not want it.
Old Lynch was also a little confused. He picked up his hat, scratched the bare scalp on his forehead, and said in a broken gong-like voice: "What's there to grab this?"
This kind of horse is an ordinary horse for pastures. It is so numerous that it is outrageous, not to mention that the flower horses are not very consistent with Jian Heng's aesthetic.
Anyone who knows about the Huama understands that the Huama is usually brown with large white spots on its body. In Jian Heng's eyes, it looks a bit like an albino in the horse, and it is particularly unsightly.
Since it is not good-looking, why did Jian Heng buy this?
The first thing is cheap, and the second thing is that the horse has a good physique. Not only is it a well-proportioned body, but it also has a shoulder height of 1.6 meters. In addition, the pace, speed and reaction after receiving the instructions are all good, so Jian Heng wanted to pick up a minimum price and put it in the bag. Who knew that there were people who had the same plans as him, and they also increased the price, so Jian Heng had to give up.
The last few horses were sold at $420, and they were bought by the person who made up for the price later.
Apart from these horses, the remaining horses did not bid. After shouting a few times, a few cowboys drove the horses out of the auction hall.
