368 The Status of Cattle and Sheep
Wang Shasha is a real action-oriented person. The next day, she went out to purchase 206 cows and 154 sheep. How much did it cost in total? If it was converted into soft girl coins, it would be less than 60,000 yuan.
If these are calves, the price of lambs may not be surprising, but the ones that Wang Shasha brought back are all half-big cows and half-big sheep, all of which are over six months old.
This means that she doesn't like her in the livestock market, otherwise she would have to buy more. Is shopping addicted? It's still so "cheap"? He was so generous that he didn't bargain. Otherwise, it would probably be a few thousand yuan cheaper in such a large group.
"How about it, six cows and four goats are all sold and given away." Wang Shasha said successfully.
"You can milk cows and goats?" Old Liu asked curiously.
He really didn't expect that Wang Shasha would talk about it yesterday, and then she started to act seriously today.
Wang Shasha was a little stunned. It seemed that she had never considered this issue.
"Hey..., Third Brother, why do I always feel like you are nouveau riche?" Zhou Xianhao came over and asked after reading it.
Old Liu took a step back and pointed at Wang Shasha, "She is, I am actually very frugal."
"Same, same, the whole family doesn't speak two families." Zhou Xianhao said with a smile.
Wang Shasha was so depressed that she threw Zhou Xianhao into a ward.
"Hehe, third brother, I just heard Kipkori say that these cattle and sheep can be replaced with many wives. Are they true or false?" Sun Baofeng asked happily after coming over.
Old Liu nodded, "It's almost the same. I've talked to them when I first came here and I was shocked. In many African countries, cows and sheep are serious betrothal gifts."
"Only in remote places, one cow will be OK. In a slightly better place, pair it with a sheep. If it is better, two sheep will be there."
"If anyone has thirty or fifty cows, he will definitely be a local domineering person. He also has to arrange for someone to be on duty with a gun to avoid someone coming to steal."
"Last brother, you are not kidding me, are you?" Sun Baofeng asked in disbelief.
"What am I teasing you for? This is the real thing." Liu Wenrui said with a wry smile.
"In many villages, it is not actually about marrying a daughter, but selling her daughter. Many girls only know on the day they are sold, and then they are sold."
"Even here, there is no saying that there is a free love story. It's all arranged marriages by parents, but it's better than there, so you'll be able to meet first, not just sell it seriously."
"Actually, it's because the economic level here is not developed, and Kenya's economic development is good, right? East Africa's leader, but look at Nairobi, isn't that the case?"
"Oh my god, then there is no human rights?" Wang Shasha said angrily.
Old Liu glanced at her, "Life is hard, but who else has no human rights? You go to those countries where wars are frequent, and it is a success if you can't starve to death at home."
"Many of the unreasonable things are just because we are in different angles. The primary task of human beings is actually to live. Only by living can we have a future, right?"
"You are just nonsense. If you sell like that, how can you live in the future?" Wang Shasha said in confusion.
"We have to live with it. Unless the economy is developed and we have enough food to eat, we can only think of other things." Old Liu shrugged.
"You don't know what the actual living situation here is. If you arrive at the slums in Nairobi, how many people will line up to marry their daughters? Not to mention a cow, a few pounds of meat can be done."
"This is the reality, and it is also the actual situation here. Just say that the salary we give to these locals is obviously very low. But this low is what we think is low. Our salary standards here are much higher than those given by Sunshine Company."
"Why is it that when Sunshine Company occupies land, not only the relevant departments are very cooperative, but local residents are more cooperative? It is because after these lands are sold to Sunshine Company, their lives are a little better than before."
"Not to mention whether the hospitals and schools promised by Sunshine Company have any shadows, at least they can have a good hope. Masica's family is OK now, right? But she didn't have any serious thoughts to let the children study. That is, we can teach them all, and that's all."
"My little comrade, your idea needs to be changed. When you have the ability in the future, we can do serious teaching. It won't be possible now, there is not so much money."
Although Wang Shasha was still a little dissatisfied, she also knew that what Liu Wenrui was talking about was the truth.
I have lived here for a long time. Every time I buy snacks for Miaomiao, I will bring some of them to the children here. There are many children here, dozens of them. For these children, the foods they look down on are their delicious dishes.
Local residents in Kenya are just having a life of life and are willing to put so much oil there when cooking? They also love to eat meat. Who can really eat meat every day?
When these children first came here, they had to eat until they were full every day and their stomachs were full. That is, now they know that they are really living a good life, so they don’t eat as much as before.
"Last brother, I actually think it's good that Sasha has such an idea, at least she is not as numb as we do." Sun Baofeng said with a smile.
Old Liu rolled his eyes, "I'm not numb, but I don't have that much ability and I dare not think about this."
"I'm still a little worried now. When the farming season is busy, I'll almost recruit people from the Kale tribe and the five tribes. The people in Kale Town dare not count on it. They have the intention to work for me, and I'm afraid they don't have the courage to do it."
"Well, Brother Liu is actually good enough to these people. Otherwise, Maxika and the others would not be so dedicated to their work and not lazy at all." Wang Shasha defended Lao Liu.
But after saying that, I was stunned. Why did I talk to this big pig's hoof? Look at what the eyes of these three brothers have become now.
Old Liu nodded proudly, "Give me a compliment to Comrade Xiao Wang. Hey? Xiao Wang from Nairobi hasn't been in touch for a long time. He also called him over for the past half day. When I first came, I helped me a lot."
"Haha, it's the omnipotent intermediary Xiao Wang?" Sun Baofeng asked with a smile.
"Yes, I really helped me a lot at the beginning." Old Liu said.
"By the way, Sasha, what kind of breed are these cattle? Forget about dairy cows, why do I look a little different from the cattle in our country? Are they taller?"
"These are Sanger cows. They say that horns can grow very long." Wang Shasha said.
"Most of the people here raise such cattle, which are drought-resistant. It seems that they produce less meat, and there is nothing wrong with it."
Lao Liu nodded, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, raising these cattle mainly provides raw materials for the biogas tank, and eating meat is a bit worse.
Xiao Miaomiao was also very curious about these cattle and sheep. Even if it was a half-big cow, she was taller than Simba. Then the little guy rode one by himself with the help of Simba and the little elephant.
That little look is so beautiful, riding a cow is quite interesting, and I almost got to ride my dad's shoulder to play.
"Did you see it? How naughty the little guy is now. If he were older, I wouldn't be confident that he could watch him." Old Liu said helplessly at Xiao Miaomiao who was riding a stroll.
"Haha, I see I'll get a straw hat for my niece and then a flute. That look should be very good." Sun Baofeng said with a smile.
In fact, it is not just Lao Liu and the others who gather here to watch cattle and sheep, but people working in the fields occasionally look here.
Cattle and sheep really occupy different positions in the hearts of the Kenyan people. It can even be said that they can often exist in place of currency.
Just like the betrothal gift they just discussed, the cow and the sheep were dealt with directly. As for other things, they were all secondary.
This is their inherent concept that influences them. Even though they know that Liu Wenrui is a big boss and is very rich, they don’t have much concept in their minds.
Now that they saw Liu Wenrui fiddling with such a large group of cattle and sheep, they felt that the boss was really not simple and too rich.
This matter is somewhat of a place to reason. To put it simply, even if you take a pile of US dollars here, the impact they cause in their hearts is probably not as good as that of these cattle and sheep.
I called Kipkori over and had to build sheds for these cattle and sheep. It's not raining anymore, and it's not easy to spend the heavy rainy season in October.
Then he found that Wang Shasha was missing and searched for a while. This girl had already gotten along with Xiao Miaomiao. It was probably these cows that hadn’t grown up yet, otherwise she would have tried to ride a cow.
"Third brother, it's almost time for us to book a plane ticket back," said Zhou Xianhao.
"Don't stay for a few days? Let's leave so quickly?" Liu Wenrui asked with a frown.
"My good third brother, how long has it been here? We must not have a coffee shop? We must not promote coffee beans?" Zhou Xianhao said with a wry smile.
"Hey... I just think that life is passing too fast, and it's all the time. I really can't bear to leave. You can stay here forever." Old Liu sighed.
Sun Baofeng patted his shoulder, "I'm starting a business now, so I can only do this. When I get really rich and become a big group, I can help me with anything I do, so we can play casually, right?"
"Haha, let's work hard, guys." Liu Wenrui said with a smile.
"It must be because of your hard work, and you will be able to lead everyone." Chen Cheng said.
The four brothers laughed, diluting some of the little sorrows that were about to part.
