Chapter 985 The school sweetheart’s first love who took a check and went abroad (23)

By the time the workers got into the mood and the work on the farm and ranch began in an orderly manner, it was mid-October, the peak of spring in New Zealand.

 This year’s sheep shearing competition has begun again.

But it’s a pity that there is an additional clause that restricts the registration of foreigners. International students like her who have been in the country for less than two years are not eligible to participate this year. Xu Yin cannot take advantage of this wave of wool.

But she didn’t care, she was busy.

On the farm, the crops have been sown, and kiwifruit and grapes are still seedlings. It takes at least two years for grapes to bear fruit, and kiwifruit even longer, but vine fruits need to be set up early even if they do not bear fruit.

Xu Yin drew a drawing and appointed a foreman, asking him to lead the workers to build the scaffolding when they had time.

Over at the pasture, Willie often comes to help. There are day laborers grazing, and he is purely here to study the growth of Angus cattle. He is afraid that they will not adapt to the water and soil in the central part, and will become thin or sick.

Xu Yin was happy to have someone to share the burden with. Seeing that he had mastered the breeding tips she mentioned, she simply hired him as a ranch manager and paid him a salary.

Because Wei Lai was the youngest child in the family, he was favored since he was a child, so he developed an out-of-touch temperament. Taking advantage of his young age, he ran out all day long and did not do much work at home. The mayor and his wife had nothing to do with their little son.

Unexpectedly, since learning Chinese Kung Fu from Sean, my temperament has become much calmer and I am more willing to endure hardships. Now I am still working in Sean's ranch to receive wages. The mayor and his wife were surprised.

 After being surprised, I couldn’t help but feel happy: My son is enlightened! There is a future now!

They would not be unhappy because their son was going to work on someone else’s ranch while their family was clearly running a farm. On the contrary, they were very happy.

 It’s great to work on the ranch!

Learn how to raise Angus beef cattle with Sean. When your family raises cattle next year, you won’t need to ask others for advice.

When the time comes, raise two or three of them first. If they are well raised, then buy some land and raise dozens or hundreds of them like Sean. It would also be good to run a farm and a ranch at the same time.

Xu Yin didn't know the mayor's joy. After she entrusted the ranch to Willie to take care of it, she rode a motorcycle up the mountain.

After more than a month of maintenance, the grassy slopes around Lake Ghana are now lush. The six apple trees next to the small pointed stone house are in their flowering period. The hundreds of miles of pink apple blossoms perfectly embellish the surrounding rich greenery. .

When Xu Yin came here last time, she chose an area to plant fruit trees - the eastern **** of Lake Ghana. Over the mountains is her farm.

 Have thought about what to plant: apples, red pears, cherries, blueberries.

The fruit seedlings were bought by the mayor’s family. His farm will expand the planting of blueberries, cherries and red pears this year. Xu Yin bought them with him.

Come here today to dig the hole and bury the base fertilizer so that the saplings can be planted in time when they arrive.

Digging dozens of holes in a row, Xu Yin came to the lake to wash her hands and rest. She took out her kettle and drank a few sips of wolfberry and red date tea, and ate a soufflé snack.

Looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, the grassy green lake nearby, as well as the whitebait swimming in the lake in big waves and the freshwater shrimp with transparent shells bouncing forward, I thought: the water temperature where the whitebait lives is relatively low. I wonder if the living environment is suitable for cold water fish?

 The cold water fish she stored in the system warehouse are still products of Taoyuan Star.

 Its meat is tender and tender, and it is the most delicious freshwater fish she has ever eaten. But with so many small worlds worn out, there won’t be much left if she eats sparingly.

If you can survive and breed here, wouldn't you be able to stock up on a wave of cold-water fish?

 It is better to act than to have a heartbeat.

Xu Yin immediately selected a few cold water fish with seeds in their bellies, sent them into the cool lake, and threw a few clouds of spiritual mist into the water with her fingertips.

They were seen wagging their tails happily, and soon they sank to the bottom of the water and disappeared into the swaying grass of the lake. Xu Yin stopped caring about them.

 After you have had enough rest, continue digging holes and burying fertilizer.

When the sun was high in the sky, she came to the stone house, washed her face, took out the dry food she had brought with her, and ate while admiring the scenery outside the house.

The stone house is cool in the summer, and warm in the winter with a fireplace, so Xu Yin plans to use it as a holiday cabin, and usually lives in the village at the foot of the mountain. The small farm arranged by Mrs. Haiqiong is quite comfortable.

There are three houses in Zhuangzi, each with five or six rooms. One is used as a dormitory for workers, and the other is used as a warehouse. She lives alone in the main house.

The house is made of wood and stone, half a meter above the ground. There are five or six wooden steps in front of the house. The house is paved with wooden floors. It is well waterproofed against moisture and insects. Xu Yin fell in love with it as soon as she came over and cleaned it up in the spring. Moved in.

 Another advantage of living alone is that you can turn on a small stove for yourself at any time.

No, the dry food when going out can also be made into glutinous rice **** that she likes to eat but there is a lack of local ingredients.

 Take a nap after eating and continue your afternoon work.

She did not intend to rely on others to plan the lakeside plan. She took the time to work on it herself.

Firstly, workers’ wages are quite high, so she can save a fortune. Secondly, she plans to use this place as a stocking base for fish and shrimps raised in the lake and fruits from the orchards. When the weather gets warmer, she will open a piece of land next to the stone house. Plant some strawberries and restock the system warehouse.

If she hires workers, who come in and out every day, and the output is certain, it will not be so convenient for her to stock up.

A few days later, the fruit saplings bought by the mayor arrived. Xu Yin paid the balance, took the fruit saplings she ordered, and went up the mountain to transplant them. She also checked to see if the cold-water fish released into the lake were alive.

She threw out a handful of bait, and after a while, the lake surface was filled with dots of light, and fish came up to grab food.

Xu Yin stared at the lake carefully and saw that the cold water fish were among them, grabbing the food quite quickly. She breathed a sigh of relief and just got used to it.

 After that, when she had time, she would come over and throw a wave of fish food into the lake.

Even if she doesn't come to feed them, these fish won't be hungry. There are aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake. No matter how bad they are, whitebait and shrimps can be eaten. But in comparison, they seemed to prefer the fish food she fed.

 Another month passed while she was busy inspecting farms and pastures, finding and solving problems, going up the mountain to tend orchards and raising fish, and it was the summer of New Zealand.

 “Sean.”

Mrs. Hunter came to see her with a bamboo basket on her arm and a bucket of goat's milk in her hand.

“The goat milk was given to you by old William. In the basket are goat milk cakes and dried meat that I asked Rita to bake. You live alone and no one will cook for you. Don’t starve yourself.”

 Xu Yin accepted it happily.

　　Hungry means you can't starve yourself, but she has to accept Mrs. Hunter's kindness.

It’s been a long time since I had the goat’s milk cake made by the cook, and I really miss it.

 “Why are you here at this time?”

It's quite hot today, with the highest temperature reaching 29 degrees. Walking under the sun can make you sweat all over.

Xu Yin quickly invited her to sit in the room, poured a cup of mint herbal tea and handed it to Mrs. Hunter.

"Stop being busy." Mrs. Hunter pulled her to sit down together. "Looking at your energy, you still don't know the bad news, right?"

 “What bad news?”
