Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 99 Reclamation problem!
After sighing for a while, everyone quickly got busy.

Fortunately, the picking work of these wild grapes is very simple. Basically, you only need to pick the whole bunch of grapes. Compared with picking coffee beans, you have to judge the ripeness. It is not too easy.

Therefore, Wang Lu and his team were very efficient. They picked nearly two tons of wild grapes in just half a day.

And the area they picked only occupies one-tenth of the entire wild grape forest in this mountain col. Based on the output of about two tons per acre, the size of the wild grapes in this mountain col is about ten acres.

This is already a very good scale in the wild.

Moreover, Wang Lu also saw many new grape vines growing around him. It is foreseeable that the area of ​​this unmanaged wild grape forest will increase year by year!

Seeing that the meal was almost here, Wang Lu also called for everyone to return with the picked wild grapes.

At this time, the advantage of having more manpower came to light, and all the wild grapes were transported back and forth in two or three trips.

The fully automatic brewing machines that Wang Lu asked James to help purchase have also been shipped over. There are ten of them, each of which can accommodate more than two tons of crushed wild grape juice for fermentation at one time. Even at this price, It made Wang Lu feel very distressed.

In addition to installing the fully automatic brewing machines in the winery, Wang Lu also arranged for the Halafa brothers and sisters to destem the picked wild grapes and then simply clean them.

Of course, the Halafa brothers and sisters alone could not complete such a heavy workload, so Wang Lu transferred the few black people who he valued and were hard-working from among the black labor force he had previously recruited. Come and help.

With the same daily wage, compared to planting sisal in the sisal field, just picking and cleaning these wild grapes is undoubtedly a lighter job, so these black people are also quite happy.

As for Wang Lu and the veterans, they naturally continued to pick those wild grapes and do some physical work.

With Wang Lu and the others working overtime, it finally took less than five days to pick all the wild grapes during their ripe picking window.

All these wild grapes will be brewed, and the yeast used in half of the wild grapes this time is the natural yeast prepared by Professor Qin's students, and he plans to see the effect.

After finishing the cleaning and fermentation of these wild grapes, the hundreds of acres of wild coffee beans in the Woulu Mountains reached full maturity one month after the arrival of the dry season.

The focus of the ranch's work has also shifted to picking coffee beans. After all, the contract with Ruixin Coffee has been signed, and the deposit has been paid.

In addition, Ruixin Coffee even set up a small local office to be responsible for the transportation of this batch of coffee beans picked from Wanglu Ranch back to China.

"Boss, if you ask me, Africa is really evil. The wild land can be so fertile. Look at those wild grapes before and these coffee beans now. They don't look like they grow wild at all. Even in my hometown. Those crops that are specially hired to take care of are not growing so well!"

Wei Dahai sighed while working, and other veterans also responded with words.

"With such a fertile land, I really don't understand why all the locals are so skinny and sallow. I read on the news that there are sometimes famines in this place?" "It's so frustrating that these people are guarding such a fat land." The land is so ruined, I get angry just seeing how lazy the locals are at work."

"If you ask me, our boss must be very visionary to go to Africa to purchase such a large piece of property. As long as we work hard, the fertile land here is so fertile that even planting potatoes can make a lot of money!"

"Don't be so careless. Do you know how much our boss's business costs, growing potatoes? If you can figure it out, look at your potential!"

Everyone laughed for a while and then continued working.

After Wang Lu was busy for a while, he straightened up and picked up several mountains beside the coffee forest with a thoughtful look on his face.

"What's up, boss, are you tired? If you ask me, just take a rest. Let us rough guys do this rough work. How can any boss who pays us wages still work with us?" reason!"

Old Wei, who had been following Wang Lu, also spoke at the right time. When Wang Lu heard this, he also smiled and waved:
"Brother Wei, my body and bones are not so delicate. How can I not be able to bear this little work?"

Wei Dahai also laughed when he heard this. Based on his interactions during this period, he had an intuitive understanding of his boss's physical fitness, which was not inferior to that of his fellow guys who had been specially polished in the army.

He also has a pretty good personality. Not only is he not at all arrogant like most young people, but he is also able to lower his figure enough to hang out with rough guys like him.

This also made Wei Dahai more and more convinced that he was lucky this time.

And Wang Lu also expressed his thoughts:
"This coffee forest was originally picked for free. I didn't expect that the coffee beans grown were of such good quality. However, the production volume is now a little behind, so I have to expand the scale. I thought that since this hilltop can grow These coffee trees are growing so well, so it shouldn’t be a problem to reclaim land on several nearby hills to plant coffee trees.”

"That's the truth. These hills are not far away from each other. The soil fertility and various conditions should be similar. And even if we don't cultivate it, in the next few decades, the hills nearby will probably grow. It’s full of these coffee trees!”

Wei Dahai also affirmed Wang Lu's choice.

But Wang Lu's expression on his face still didn't relax. Instead, his brows furrowed even more tightly.

"Old Wei, you have seen the topography of the Woulu Mountains. Not only are some places steep and precipitous, but the roads are even narrower. Those wild animals can come and go freely, but the agricultural machinery of our pasture cannot get up!"

Since the flat land on several nearby hills has to be reclaimed, it is not realistic to rely solely on manpower without using agricultural machinery for such a large operating area and workload.

But in the terrain of the Woulu Mountains, not to mention the super giant John Deere 9620rx, even the Lovo 704, which is several times smaller in size, may not be able to climb up.

Moreover, the cultivation of this kind of mountainous land is more time-consuming and laborious than that of plain land. Without the help of agricultural machinery, Wang Lu really doesn’t know how to cultivate it...

　Something happened these two days, updates will be resumed on the 21st
