Chapter 128: Cow Show

Views:

"Wow, there are quite a lot of things in here." Jiang Hai said with some surprise as he looked at the animals stored in the tents around him.

"Of course, young man, but this is just a livestock show in Massachusetts. If it were in the east, maybe across the country, it would be even bigger." After hearing his words, the person who was brushing the horse's mane in a booth next to him also He spoke with a smile.

"Haha!" After hearing what the other party said, Jiang Hai nodded kindly and continued to stroll around here.

"Is this your first time to participate in such a herding exhibition?" Looking at Jiang Hai's curious eyes, Sandy Clive, who followed him in, also followed behind him with a smile on his face. asked him.

"Well, yes!" After hearing her words, Jiang Hai answered directly without thinking too much. Now his eyes are a little uncomfortable. Although this cattle ranching exhibition is only in Massachusetts, this The scale was somewhat beyond his expectation.

He had only heard of the animal husbandry exhibition before, but this was the first time he saw it with his own eyes. Originally, he thought that the animal husbandry exhibition, which covers a whole state, would only have a dozen or more booths, or maybe more than twenty, which would be good. After all, Massachusetts is a small state in its own right.

On the map of the American emperor, it was difficult to see Xiaozhou clearly, but when he got here, he realized that he was a little too naive.

The entire site covers an area of about four square kilometers, that is, two kilometers horizontally and two kilometers vertically.

Like the Chinese character Tian, it is divided into four areas, namely the cattle exhibition hall, the horse exhibition hall, the sheep exhibition hall and the supporting exhibition hall.

Jiang Hai entered the horse exhibition hall now. As soon as he walked in, he found that there must be at least thirty or forty separate exhibition halls here. Of course, this is not a game exhibition, or an exhibition like a food price exhibition, those The exhibition is indoors, and a model will be invited, but this exhibition is outdoors. It is said to be a separate exhibition hall, but in fact, it is a separate stable, and many horses are locked in the stable. , no matter what others choose, there will of course be some items that are not for sale, such as the horse of the person who just talked to Jiang Hai. This person’s horse is a very good horse, a pure white purebred horse. This is a must in the UK. The horses that serve as royal guards are quite complete with pedigree certificates hanging next to them. They have even participated in dressage competitions. There was a TV in front of the stable just now, which was showing the horse participating in the competition. situation at the time.

It is not uncommon for a horse like this to be sold for millions of dollars if it is in its prime.

But obviously, that person is not going to kill the goose to retrieve the eggs. What he sells is mainly the offspring of this horse. If he finds a horse that is also pure blood, the offspring will all be one-year-old ponies. If the quality is like If it is good, it will cost hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. Even if the quality is not very good, it can still sell for tens of thousands, which is much more expensive than ordinary horses.

Jiang Hai didn't know much about horses. He was here now, and he just came to watch the excitement. After all, the big char in his house was still in a state of free-range. There was no way to buy this horse. After riding a horse, he didn't have time to tame it. In his opinion, riding a horse is actually not an easy task. It needs to be learned alone. At the time, Robbins and the others were very busy, and he didn't have that ability. Study with your mind.

But looking at these horses now, he had the urge to go back and ride them. Of course, even if he did, he couldn't ride them now.

Jiang Hai was going to learn to ride a horse when the spring flowers bloomed. Jiang Hai believed that with the fact that he had fed the horse for so long and his own blood, if he wanted to ride a horse, the guy would not resist.

While thinking about it, Jiang Hai and Sandy Clive walked out of the stable.

Although Jiang Hai is very curious about the cattle breeding exhibition, he is mainly curious about cattle. Compared to people who have a cowboy mentality, horses are naturally very good things, but for Jiang Hai, horses, to put it bluntly, are still a substitute. Just a tool.

He is not a professional cowboy, so he is not very interested in horses. The most important thing is that the horses here are really not cheap.

After walking around with Sandy, the second servant also walked past the stable and entered the largest and densest market nearby. In the cattle exhibition hall, as soon as he walked in, he was greeted by the smell of cattle. Jiang Hai's nose rushed in.

Even Xian Di couldn't help but cover her nose with her hands, let alone Jiang Hai.

"Ahem, I'm choking." Turning around, Jiang Hai choked and couldn't help but frown and said cautiously.

Although the smell here is not as strong as that of my own cowshed, it is definitely not bad.

"Hey, you're still the owner of the manor. You can't stand the smell of cows!" Looking at Jiang Hai, Santi next to him smiled and took out a piece of paper from her small bag. The handkerchief was handed to Jiang Hai.

Jiang Hai immediately took the paper and covered his nose, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. The paper handkerchief was very fragrant. Jiang Hai also knew that this was an artificial fragrance and was not good for the human body, but smelling it The smell is better than smelling cow farts.

"Huh, that's why I almost never enter our bullpen. Even if I do, I have to wear a mask." He took a deep breath and finally recovered, then looked at Sandy Clay with a smile on her face. Husband, Jiang Hai shrugged and said.

"You still need to adapt early. Although Uncle Robbins and the others are good people, it is your own business after all. You have to know it well." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Sandy Clive chuckled lightly. Talked about it.

"This is natural... By the way, did you know? Some people say that the main reason for global warming is because cows fart too much. Almost a few cows fart in a year, which is enough to catch up with a car. It's like a car emitting exhaust gas." After listening to Sandy Clive's words, Jiang Hai smiled a little. He was also a little embarrassed to be said so by a beautiful woman, so he changed the topic, but the topic changed. Yes, it is not ordinary blunt.

"Uh, haha..." Sandy Clive didn't know how to respond to Jiang Hai's words.

Should we talk to him about cow farts? Don't be kidding, but fortunately Sandy Clive knows Jiang Hai's character and doesn't care.

To put it bluntly, Jiang Hai's character is still a bit middle-of-the-road, at least he doesn't show his superior emotional intelligence.

It seems that although the True Dragon Essence can enhance his physique and increase his memory, it has no change in emotional intelligence. I see that Sandy Clive has no interest in talking about the issue of cow farts. Go down.

Jiang Hai also curled his lips. He didn't feel there was anything wrong in saying such words at this time, but it was a pity that he couldn't show off his knowledge. Then he covered his nose and walked into the cattle exhibition hall next to him.

As soon as I walked in, the smell was indeed very pungent, but soon after I walked in, it got much better.

This cattle exhibition hall is much busier than the horse exhibition hall. There are even hundreds of booths, but most of the booths are private family farm booths. There are not many cows in total, but the styles But they are diverse.

In addition to the Angus cattle that Jiang Hai is familiar with, there are many other types of beef cattle that can be seen here.

What about Piedmont, Limousin, Simmental, Charolais, Hayford, etc. In addition to beef cattle, there are also dairy cows and draft cattle sellers here. Although in the United States, this has long been the case. There is no need for cattle to plow the land, but some people are still willing to collect a few draft cattle, so the cattle here are really diverse.

Looking at the cows in front of him, Jiang Hai also followed Sandy Clive, chatting without a word, looking at the various cows in front of him, but when he was walking, suddenly, a cow entered his eyes, Yes, it is one cow, not a group, because there is one cow in this exhibition hall at this time. This exhibition hall is definitely not small. It is not a problem to put ordinary cows, more than a dozen, but there is only this cow at this time. , but even with only this one cow, it makes this bullpen look a lot smaller.

Looking at the cow, Jiang Hai slowly walked over. The cow was very big and tall, even taller than Jiang Hai.

The body length is also much longer than that of ordinary cattle. Jiang Hai took a look and saw that it was almost three meters long.

The whole body is covered with thick hair, and there is a pair of small horns on the head. Although the horns are not big according to its proportion, they are extremely sharp. A pair of eyes are staring at everyone with vigilance. People, looking around there.

"Is this an American bison?" Seeing this huge guy, Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment, and then he asked Sandy Clive next to him with some suspicion, because he seemed to have seen it in the zoo. This guy, looking like this, clearly couldn't be an ordinary domestic cow, it must be a bison!

"It seems, it's..." Sandy Clive doesn't specialize in studying cows, but she is a primary school teacher and leads the children to the zoo. Naturally, they need to explain it. Looking at the cow in front of her, She also said something a little unsure.

"You guys are really discerning. This is indeed an American bison, but it is not wild. The wild ones are all in Yellowstone Park. This one is a test subject privately cultivated by our school. This time we come to the exhibition mainly to raise funds. Domesticate this kind of cattle." Just when Jiang Hai and Sandy Clive were a little unsure, a young man walked over from the side. Compared with other exhibition halls, they were either in suits or cowboys. Everyone, the clothes on this man look much more ordinary.

It was just a down jacket with a school badge on the chest. Jiang Hai didn't know what the school badge represented, but Sandy Clive knew it. Hearing this person's words, he nodded proactively.

"Are you students from Boston University?" Looking at the person in front of her, Sandy Clive asked a little strangely.

"Oh, yes, we are majoring in ecology and evolution, and our research topic is the issue of large-scale domestication of wild animals." After hearing Sandy's words, the students here immediately answered with a smile, and they could answer the beauty's question. , that would be a great honor.
