As spring begins, a lot of work is about to begin.
Wang Bo negotiated with Porter, and Sunset Town began to lay the foundation for the construction of a villa. He had already placed a residential heart on the lakeside, which was the location of the villa selected by Porter's designers and engineers.
Just leave this matter to Porter, and Lao Wang will be responsible for investing the money. In the first phase, he will invest 20 million New Zealand dollars, which is half of his net worth!
It can also be seen from this that real estate is really not for ordinary people. Even if you spend money as lavishly as Lao Wang, you still feel distressed when you take out the money.
The place where he wants to spend money is not only a villa area, but also his farm in Kurau, which is about to start construction.
On the 900 acres of land, Lao Wang finally decided to plant all fruits!
The biggest advantage of growing fruits is that you don’t have to keep an eye on them. You can just leave them there and let them grow naturally. Just wait until autumn to pick the fruits.
The fruits he chose were kiwis, Gala apples, golden pears, and another one that Eva suggested he grow, which was the New Zealand lantern fruit.
The lantern fruit is a fruit native to South America. It is a small deciduous shrub with a sweet and sour taste. It can be processed into jam and brewed into wine. It is a precious wild fruit in South America. Later, it was artificially cultivated and its quantity increased. There are more.
Wang Bo has seen lantern fruit, which is sold in supermarkets. This fruit is spherical in shape and has vertical lines on the fruit, just like the skeleton of a lantern. That's how it got its name.
On the weekend of early September, he took Eva, Little Loli and a large group of sled dogs on the road to Koolau.
The journey is not long, but the driving speed is always slow. Wang Bo looked at the fleeting scenery outside the window and sighed: "I must buy a helicopter when I go back!"
Eva laughed and said: "Actually, we don't need it that much. Besides, you have invested a lot of money this time. Do you still have money to buy a helicopter?"
Wang Bo winked at Eva proudly and said, "Your man's wealth is more than this. I'll show you some treasures when I go back."
Eva shrugged, took out her bank card and said, "Then my favor was in vain. I thought you would need to borrow money from me."
Lao Wang turned the steering wheel and asked in surprise: "Do you have a lot of money? Buying a helicopter is not cheap."
The two are not married, so their property has not been disclosed, and neither party knows how much money the other has.
Eva followed his example, squeezed her bright eyes proudly, and said, "Thank you for choosing a good job after I graduated from college. Although I was fired in the end, the compensation was still quite high."
"What makes such a good job? I guess it must be working for the government. Only the government is so generous."
"Bingo!" Eva snapped her fingers and smiled slyly, "You guessed it right, I do work for the government, but it needs to be kept secret, so it's better if you don't know."
Wang Bo looked at the little loli playing a mobile game behind the car seat and said softly: "Is he a spy?"
This was his guess all along. Eva's skills, driving skills, marksmanship, and her vigilance, coupled with Charlie's warning to him, it was not difficult to make this guess.
Eva didn't talk much about her past life and work, and Wang Bo didn't take the initiative to ask. Today, he used this topic to talk about it, pretending to say it accidentally.
After hearing his words, Eva was startled, then pursed her lips and smiled: "You guessed it wrong, you see I love sleeping so much, how could I be a spy? But you guessed half right, I work for the intelligence agency, you want to know the details What’s the content? But I have to tell you first, knowing it may not be a good thing.”
Wang Bo shook his head and smiled: "You know, your man's curiosity is not that strong. It all depends on you. If you want to tell me, I bet I will be a good listener. But, if you don't want to mention this Topic, then let it pass.”
The beautiful teacher blinked hesitantly and said, "It's quite complicated to talk about. I might as well talk about it later when I want to tell a story."
When the car arrived in the small town, Wang Bo went straight to Wensi Ranch. This ranch used to be called Sleigh Hill Ranch. He didn't know how it got such a name. He could change it, but he didn't.
At the gate of the ranch, a trailer is already waiting there. It is a large mechanical vehicle. The load capacity of a vehicle can reach 500 tons, but what is pulled on the vehicle is not a sapling, but a large water tank!
Yes, this is a large water tanker.
The ranch is located on the side of the road, and vehicles are constantly passing by. People on the vehicles noticed this large water tanker, and many people wondered: Is the drought in Koolau this year like this? Do you even have to transport water from other places
This is indeed water transported from other places. It took Wang Bo half a week to extract water from two spiritual springs. He will use the spiritual springs to irrigate the orchard.
Orchards in New Zealand generally adopt an open planting method. The first three of these four fruits occupy similar areas. Wang Bo uses a 3×3 planting area.
That is to say, on a piece of land three meters long and three meters wide, only one kiwi, one apple or one golden pear can be planted, and about seventy trees can be planted in one acre of land.
The planting of lantern fruit is much denser, and a high-density planting method of 1 times 1 can be used.
The fruit plant of this kind of fruit is very short, and the height of the cluster is only about 1.2 meters. When mature, there will be piles of fruits growing on the crown of the tree. These fruits are very sweet and are suitable for making jam.
Wang Bo’s plan is to plant kiwis, apples and pears on 250 acres, and the remaining 150 acres will be planted with lantern fruits.
One acre is an area of more than six acres, where more than 400 apple, kiwi or pear trees can be planted, and nearly 4,000 lantern fruit trees can be planted.
This means that Wang Bo will plant 100,000 apples, 100,000 kiwis, 100,000 pears, and one million lantern fruit trees this time!
For an orchard, this scale is large enough, and the investment intensity is even greater.
At the last farmers’ meeting, why were so many people so hesitant to convert their farms into orchards? The investment is too great!
Like Wang Bo, let's not talk about apple trees, pear trees, etc., but just say one million lantern fruit trees. Fruit saplings are sold in New Zealand in units of 100 trees, and the minimum price per unit is 500 yuan.
One million fruit saplings, that’s five million!
In addition, the farm needs to be plowed and two people need to be hired to plant it. Opening such a large orchard will cost at least tens of millions.
But there is a question that needs to be considered, that is, if all the farms are replaced with fruit trees, will they all survive? Can fruits be produced successfully? Once the fruit is produced, can we find suitable sales channels
These risks are very high. If there is a problem in one step from the planting of fruit trees to the production of fruits, everything will be lost!
Therefore, Lao Wang cleverly came up with a risk aversion. He didn’t buy fruit trees, he bought tree seeds!
