The ranch visit begins.
There was something going on here. Peterson was dressed neatly in jeans, and the princes were looking at a few Merino sheep around. He was going to perform a sheep shearing show later.
Sheep are sheared twice a year, once in spring and once in autumn, and now that spring has arrived, it’s time to shear again.
Of course, shearing sheep has now become a performance event, which is why Lao Wang recruited Peterson to come to the ranch.
When tourists came to visit, Peterson bowed formally, then waved to the eldest prince and said, "Come on, young man, drive a sheep for me."
The eldest prince blinked, barked at a sheep, and drove the sheep away.
This sheep thought it was going to be slaughtered, and it was so tragic when it left!
Peterson stretched out his hand and dragged it to his side. He held it down with his left hand and used the wool shears with his right hand to clear a path. After clearing a path, he switched to an electric clipper. After three strokes, five divided by two, the bloated sheep became slim in three or two minutes. stand up.
Tourists exclaimed, which is indeed magical for people in the city.
Seeing everyone giving him thumbs up, Peterson smiled innocently, raised the scissors in his hand and asked, "Who wants to try?"
This sentence in English is very simple and the tourists understood it, but the group was too embarrassed to come forward. One young man muttered: "I have strong hands, and I will be in trouble if I accidentally poke the sheep."
Wang Bo smiled and said: "It's okay, go up and give it a try. Mr. Peterson is the New Zealand Sheep Shearing Champion. With his guidance, nothing will happen."
"Even if something happens, you will not be held responsible unless you do it intentionally." Eva said slowly in Chinese.
Everyone around looked at the young man. He came with his girlfriend, and her girlfriend also looked at him expectantly.
The young man rubbed his nose and said bravely: "Then let me try."
Peterson handed him the shears and taught him the correct way to hold them. Then he also held a pair of shears and gave him two signs.
This job is not difficult, the difficult thing is to do it quickly and accurately.
As long as the sheep are held still, it won't hurt them. In fact, shearing sheep is as comfortable a job as massaging it. After growing for two seasons, it is equivalent to wearing a big cotton-padded jacket. Can it not be heavy
The young man tried it a few times and found that it was very simple. He switched to an electric clipper and started to push forward.
Peterson stopped him and signaled: "Slow down, kid. If you go too fast, the push knife will get stuck. You have to do it slowly and forcefully. Yes, that's it."
The young man pushed twice more, and Peterson nodded and asked him to hold the sheep with his left hand and proceed slowly.
Others also had itchy hands, and another man came up and said he wanted to try shearing sheep.
The tour guides were carrying cameras and taking pictures from all directions. These were all promotional materials.
The sheep in the Sunset Ranch are very suitable for this job, because the third-level pasture heart is very powerful, and the sheep's wool is quite clean, with some green grass clippings at most, so it is not too dirty to start with.
Peterson prepared something like a picture frame in advance. After the young man finished cutting, he picked out the whitest hair and put it in the picture frame. Then he told the young man: "Develop the photo and put it in it to give it to you as a souvenir." "
"How much does this photo frame cost?" the young man asked subconsciously.
Peterson patted him on the shoulder and laughed: "I made this myself. Only the glass cost me some money, but not much. This is a gift, a gift."
The young man was quite flattered. He probably rarely encountered such good things in his travel career.
Peterson prepared enough photo frames and gave them to everyone who came up to try shearing the sheep.
This made everyone jealous, and even women came up to have their sheep sheared.
So Chen Luoxian arranged for couples or male and female friends to share a sheep, and the family gave a photo frame.
Peterson didn't think it mattered: "A piece of glass only costs fifty cents, and I asked the guy Maxson to make the picture frame for free."
Lao Wang asked: "When will the old man move here? I have found a moving company for him!"
"When the weather gets warmer, when the tourists leave, I will take the moving company over and demolish it for them!" Peterson waved his hand domineeringly.
Originally, tourists still had doubts, what was there to see in the ranch? Can I visit for an afternoon
Now that the sheep are being sheared, by the time everyone has had their fill, the sun is almost setting.
This also exceeded Wang Bo's expectations, and he also arranged other projects.
In the second half of the afternoon, he and Chen Luoxian discussed it and simply divided the troops into two groups. Some of them stayed here to shear the sheep, while those who finished shearing the sheep followed him to milk the cows.
There are photo frame rewards for shearing sheep, and there are also rewards for milking cows. What they will drink tomorrow morning is the milk they squeezed out by themselves.
Wang Bo led the white yak out. This cow was only cruel to the dwarf children, but had a good temper at other times.
The tourists exclaimed when they saw the herd of white yaks. They became even more interested when they learned that they could milk the white yaks, especially when they learned that the milk they squeezed out could be used for breakfast tomorrow morning.
Participation in both activities was very high, and some other arrangements were not needed. For example, he planned to take a group of people to visit the entire ranch. After all, there were many species in the ranch.
Deer, white yaks, buffalo, various beef cattle, and non-primary cattle that have just arrived at the pasture, plus various goats and wild goats, pheasants, turkeys and other types of chickens and ducks, the pasture is actually like a zoo. Good for visiting.
When the sky turned dark, Wang Bo waved and said, "Let's go to the beach, everyone. Although we can't have beach barbecue here, lakeside barbecue is also very special."
There is a parking lot outside the lakeside, and there are some cars of foreign tourists parked, including several RVs. The lights are on inside, and you can see through the windows without curtains that there are people moving in the cars.
The first shearer boy said with envy: "Volvo RV, this guy has a lot of money. A friend of mine owns this car. It's great. No matter where you go, as long as you can drive it in, it's a five-star hotel." "
Lao Wang smiled and said: "It's different. This car is not worth much in New Zealand. It's about 80,000 New Zealand dollars, right?"
"So cheap?" The young man marveled, then he stretched out his hand to Lao Wang and introduced himself, "My name is Du Yong, my friends call me Adu. I work in Magic City. If the mayor has time to go to Magic City, remember to call me. With one word, I have to fulfill my duty as a landlord."
Just as Lao Wang was about to be polite, someone next to him said: "Eighty thousand New Zealand dollars is not cheap, right? After some calculation, it's less than 400,000 New Zealand dollars."
Du Yong curled his lips and said: "Brother, my friend's car costs more than one million yuan for the naked car, of course, in RMB!"
Wang Bodao: "My friend is right. In fact, it is not cheap, because the people who buy this car are people with little money. Who among the rich people buys a RV? They must buy a house."
“House prices are also high in New Zealand?”
“Compared to first-tier cities in China, it’s really not that high, but KIIs think it’s high and often protest against it.” ()) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote on Qidian. Your support is my biggest motivation. Please come. )
