Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 399

However, to Wang Lu's expectation, driven by his mentality, the ranch became even more popular after it was changed to a reservation system.

According to Fatty Wu, the current reservations for sightseeing at the ranch are even scheduled for several months, and the reservations are still growing.

"Brother, how about we set up a website? The female customer service I just hired is almost crying when she answers the phone these days. If she quits like this, I won't have any black hair anymore!"

Putting aside Fatty Wu's dirty thoughts, Wang Lu seriously considered the suggestion put forward by this guy, and found that it really worked.

Anyway, it doesn’t cost much to find someone to build a website, including maintenance and so on!
These days it’s easier to find a college student who knows C language and can build a website than it is to find a cementer who knows how to plaster!
Soon Fatty Wu found a website building company in China and spent more than 10,000 yuan to build an official website for the ranch. Plus tens of thousands of yuan in operation and maintenance services a year, the total was only a little over 20 yuan. Good guy. As soon as Wang Lu received the money, he was reportedly kicked out of the website within a week.

If you don't talk about things like liver, you have to be a programmer!

Wang Lu took a cursory glance and found that the website was well built, from UI design to operation logic. There were no problems with it. All the functions he needed, especially sightseeing reservations, were also comprehensive.

Soon Wang Lu asked Zhou Rou to post the official website link through the ranch's official account, and the pressure on Fatty Wu was finally reduced a lot.

On the ranch, the construction of the hydropower station has officially started. The preliminary base station foundation and concrete pouring are already in progress. The construction assistance company will build a small hydropower station made of reinforced concrete in the lower reaches of the Dome River.

Wang Lu went to see it several times. After artificially straightening the curved river channel, creating gradient differences, etc., the flow rate of the Dome River's already slow water near the hydropower station can be described as galloping, which is completely consistent with hydroelectric power generation. requirements.

In addition, the connection lines between the future hydropower station and the main power consumption area of ​​the ranch have also been laid in advance.

Regarding the power transmission method, the construction team originally wanted to build telephone poles or high-voltage towers to connect lines in series like in China. However, considering the complex ecological environment of the pastures and grasslands, especially when the rainy season comes and a large number of wild animals gather, it may be difficult. If it causes certain damage to the power system, we can only choose to give up.

After all, Wang Lu was not sure about other wild animals, but those African elephants were fully capable of knocking down a high-voltage tower or telegraph pole easily.

When the power supply is cut off, it will be a small problem, but subsequent maintenance will be a big problem!
With the backward power system in the area, it was difficult to find a few electricians who didn't connect the live and neutral wires together, let alone expect them to repair the ranch's power system.

Even if there are engineers from the construction assistance company, it is impossible to expect people to come from Dar es Salaam every time. It is too troublesome and time-consuming.

Finally, according to the suggestion of the construction assistance company, the power transmission method between the hydropower station and the living area adopted the method of laying underground cables, which is several times more expensive than erecting telephone poles or overhead cables from high-voltage towers.

Although the cost is high, laying underground cables is also safer and more reliable. The most important thing is that it saves trouble and does not have to worry about being damaged by wild animals on the grassland.

Thinking of this, Wang Lu was also a little worried and said:
"There are still a lot of prairie moles in the pasture who are good at digging holes, so don't chew through the cables!" "Don't worry, Mr. Wang, when we lay the underground cables, there will be some risks. Larger areas will be protected by pouring concrete, so the probability of that situation happening is very, very small!”

Hearing this, Wang Lu felt much more relieved!

I immediately agreed to the underground cable laying plan!
Soon the construction team of the construction assistance company was divided into two groups. One group was responsible for the construction of the hydropower station, and the other side was responsible for excavating underground cable routes between the living area and the hydropower station.

Thousands of wildebeests, gazelles and other herbivorous animals on the pasture grasslands finally embarked on their migration. Wang Lu also took Zhou Rou on a sightseeing balloon to witness this situation with his own eyes. The situation, other tourists at the ranch were also able to witness this scene.

Of course, Wang Lu, a profiteer, was also very shameless and raised the standard of travel expenses to a higher level during this period. After all, this kind of situation can only be seen once a year.

However, after other tourists saw such a spectacular scene, they had no objection at all. Even the photos and videos they posted on their respective WeChat Moments, invisibly promoted the ranch a lot.In the sightseeing reservation function on the ranch’s official website, the number of visitors for next year and the year after the great migration of species has already been fully booked...

The departure of these wildebeests and gazelles also heralds the official arrival of the dry season.

This also provides a lot of convenience for construction during the dry season. At least there is no need to worry about animals breaking into the construction site.Of course, occasionally curious guys would come over to watch the fun, but they were all driven away by the veterans!
Without the nuisance of rain, the construction time can be advanced much earlier, and the construction progress can also be accelerated a lot.

Not to be outdone, Huang Zheng's engineering team in charge of the farm once again deployed more manpower in an effort to push forward the completion time of the farm.

Of course, there is no need to worry about the quality of the project, after all, the Burns team is standing by.

In addition, during the construction of the breeding farm, the Burns team has been constantly seeking resources for purebred Wagyu cattle in Australia for Wang Lu.

Australian Wagyu is actually a branch of the island country’s Wagyu. Australian Wagyu is basically a population bred from the offspring of the island country’s Wagyu. The island country has strict control over the export quantity of Wagyu, but importing Wagyu from Australia requires a lot of effort. Much simpler.

Even so, the number of pure-blood Wagyu cattle that can be imported into the ranch is still limited. There are only about [-] in total, and this is only with the efforts of Burns' team. If it depends on Harris, I am afraid that this guy can get them. A few dozen heads would be considered good.

However, Wang Lu didn't take it to heart. Those purebred Wagyu cattle were intended to be raised as high-end breeds. The meat produced by the original African Zebu and Bangsi Mara cattle was already good in quality and easy to obtain. As the main cattle breed, there is absolutely no problem!

Of course, subsequent pastures can also use self-breeding methods to increase the number of purebred Wagyu cattle in the pasture. Therefore, those Wagyu cattle will be designated to be raised in separate barns in the future. Don’t be distracted by those Zebu and Bangsi horses. Pulling cattle taints the bloodline.
