Rebirth on the top of the mountain, my herding career

"Xifeng, now everyone is not so eager to expand the scale of the breeding farm. Maybe next year, the plan to build a new breeding farm will be scrapped. Have we also made a counter-cyclical investment?"

afternoon.

Gu Lidan and Qin Xifeng went to pick up Xiaohu together. Since they arrived early before school was over, the two stood far away from the kindergarten and talked about the recent drop in the price of fresh milk.

"Countercyclical investment is not necessarily wrong, and procyclical investment is not always right. Take dairy cows as an example. The ups and downs of profits are normal. The key is to work hard on internal skills, tap internal potential, and through scale,

Only by working hard to reduce costs in modern breeding can we remain invincible."

Qin Xifeng told Gulidan that many industries are very cyclical, with prices rising to the sky and falling prices falling to the floor. The rise and fall of prices is not the only basis for investment. Only by persisting for a long time can you make money.

There is nothing wrong with what he said, but many farmers have fallen into the downturn.

"Another advantage of concentrated farming is that it has a stronger ability to resist risks. Compared with working alone, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground. Don't think so much, do every job down-to-earth, and you won't lose money."

After Qin Xifeng finished speaking, it was just after school time, so he stopped talking and went to pick up the little guy with Gulidan.

In fact, the price of fresh milk and the price of dairy cows are fundamentally affected by the relationship between supply and demand. The rise in prices creates a profit-making effect, and funds continue to be invested in the industry. As the number of dairy cows and fresh milk production increase, one day the market will

saturation, causing prices to fall.

When the price fell to the bottom, some people kept going out and selling dairy cows at low prices. Breeds like brown cows, which are good for meat and milk, might have been sold as beef cattle, and finally served on the people's dining tables.

At this time, the number of dairy cows decreases and the production of fresh milk shrinks, which will one day cause a retaliatory rebound in prices.

The reason is very simple, but history always repeats itself. When you see the money-making effect, it is actually a bit late. If you blindly expand investment or enter the game, you will most likely lose money.

When Gulidan got home, she went to cook. While cooking, she thought about what Qin Xifeng said. The more she thought about it, the more sense it made.

Qin Xifeng didn't have so many ideas. He took Xiaohu for a ride outside. Xiaohu said he wanted a pony because his parents had their own mounts, but he didn't.

"Xiaohu, when you get older, dad will definitely find you a good horse."

Qin Xifeng couldn't help laughing, and then he gave Xiaohu a promise.

By the time the father and son came back from outside, Gulidan had already prepared dinner, and the family of three sat together to have dinner. The two of them did not mention the fresh milk market again, and each had their own judgment about the future.

At the end of the month.

The first heavy snowfall hit the area.

Snowflakes fell for two days and one night. As if overnight, the whole world turned white and covered in silver. Winter was really coming.

Qin Xifeng went to the stable early in the morning and cleaned the snow on the roof and surroundings with Astyga and others. Then he checked the conditions inside the stable, including insulation, ventilation, environmental sanitation, etc., and found that there were no problems.

.

"Astiga, the weather has changed drastically recently, so please be more careful. I'm leaving. Call me if you need anything."

He then left the corral and went to the breeding farm. At this time, Gulidan and Feruzi were leading the staff to strengthen the corral. The snow had been cleared and the road to the outside world had been cleared.

"Abba called Aihemai and Yushanjiang over early in the morning. They brought bulldozers and tractors and quickly opened the road to the field. At this time, Abba took them to Murakami,

Then all roads will be opened.”

When Gulidan saw Qin Xifeng, he ran over and chatted with him for a few words.

The work of clearing snow at the breeding farm and in the village is proceeding in an orderly manner. Aihemai and Yushanjiang brought large-scale machinery with their border patrol teams, and the cleaning efficiency increased many times.

"Then you get busy, I'll go find Aihe to buy them."

Qin Xifeng didn't stay at the breeding farm for long, and then went to the entrance of the village.

Atik was directing from outside the village. After the villagers cleaned up their houses and livestock pens, they came over to help. Heavy snow had blocked the mountains and opening up roads was the top priority and could not be delayed.

"Abba, where is Aihe buying them?"

Qin Xifeng didn't see Aihemai, Yushanjiang and others at the entrance of the village, so he walked to Atik and asked.

"They are opening the road to Tasha. There is a company outpost over there. It's okay if the road is blocked, otherwise supplies will not be transported. How can the soldiers have the strength to patrol the border?"

Atik said that Ahemai and others were bringing large machinery to open the road between the village and Tasha Xinghua Village. He had already called Tasha, and the other village sent many people to assist.

This road is also the supply line for Tasha Outpost, so of course it must be given priority.

"Well, it should be. Dad, you are busy, I will go to the front to take a look."

Qin Xifeng did not drive. There was serious snow on the road. Before it was completely cleared, he thought it would be better to ride a horse.

Then, he walked far away and saw Aihemai, Yushanjiang and others.

In addition to the border patrol team, dozens of young people also came from Tasha Xinghua Village. Aihemai drove a bulldozer to clear the road ahead, pushing the thick snow under the roadbed.

Other members of the border patrol team drove a tractor with a homemade snow shovel hanging on the back and continued to clean it. Finally, dozens of young people with large brooms swept it manually, and the road was basically clean.

The advantage of this is that it does not damage the road surface, there is no contact between the bulldozer bucket and the road surface, and the cleaning efficiency will be higher.

"Brother Xifeng, are you here?"

"Brother Xifeng, hello!"

...

All the young people in Tasha Xinghua Village knew Qin Xifeng, and Qin Xifeng could almost call most people by name. Along the way, people kept saying hello to him, and he responded to them one by one.

"Aihemai, the progress is very fast."

Two bulldozers and two tractors work together to advance from both ends of the road.

Aihe bought it here, and Yushanjiang took a bulldozer and a tractor to the Tasha end, pushing both ends at the same time, doubling the labor efficiency. A total of nearly 50 people from Tasha Xinghua Village were dispatched, and they were also divided into

We had two groups and were very motivated.

"Yes, with large-scale machinery, this job is not a problem. In another hour at most, Yushanjiang and I can meet each other head-on, and the road will be completely opened."

Aihemai and Yushanjiang, as well as members of the border patrol team, are now all-rounders.

They can drive both small and large trucks, as well as bulldozers, tractors, forklifts, etc. They usually earn a lot of subsidies by driving trucks to help people pull goods. At critical moments, they can engage in emergency and disaster relief work by driving special vehicles.

, all of them are great guys.

Qin Xifeng dismounted, drove Aihemai down, and drove the bulldozer to continue clearing the road. An hour later, he and Yushanjiang merged halfway, and the road to Tasha Xinghua Village was completely opened.

Three days later.

All the roads leading from Xinghua Village in Walsim to the countryside and villages have been cleared. Qin Xifeng also led people to clear the roads leading to the outside world.

This heavy snowfall had almost no major impact on the local area.

The supply of fresh milk at Walshim Ranch has also not been interrupted. The ranch has learned from the lessons of the last snow disaster and has already purchased large-scale snow clearing machinery and opened the communication line from the valley to the outside world early in the morning.

The township also dispatched people and machinery. In short, with the joint efforts of all parties, the disaster was eliminated invisible.

"Xifeng, you still have the foresight to purchase various large-scale machinery early. Otherwise, the mountains will be blocked by heavy snow and the fresh milk will not be transported out. It is inevitable that you will suffer some losses."

Gulidan still admired her man very much. When some large machines suddenly appeared in her home, although she didn't say anything, she didn't realize the important role of these big machines.

When manpower is limited, of course machinery has greater power.

This time, the heavy snowfall did not cause losses to Walshim Pasture and the breeding farms, which is really not easy. On the surface, it seems that large machinery played a key role, but in fact, the infrastructure construction in the village and surrounding areas has made great progress.

There were no roads at that time, so you had to walk over mountains and ridges on small roads, and no matter how many machines you had, they were of no use.

After winter.

The price of fresh milk continued to fall until it was cut in half before stabilizing temporarily.

This is a new cycle. Not only in Taal County, but also in and outside the province, many farmers have begun to reduce the number of dairy cows. The current price is not a loss, but they are afraid, worried about the price of fresh milk.

It will continue to fall, and by then I will probably lose all my money.

There were a large number of sold cows on the market, and the price of cows began to collapse.

"Gulidan, how is the situation of the cooperative?"

During dinner, Qin Xifeng asked.

The last time the prices of fresh milk and dairy cows fell sharply, many people in the cooperative sold their brown cows. After the price of fresh milk rose, they bought them back at a higher price.

A typical example of selling low and buying high will result in heavy losses.

"Fortunately, because this year is centralized breeding, even the members who joined later have signed an agreement with the cooperative. They put their brown cattle into the cooperative and recorded them according to the assessed value. They can enjoy the right to dividends in the future, but they have no disposal rights.

Brown Cow Power.”

Gulidan and the others also learned the lesson, upgraded the cooperative model, and completely adopted corporate operations.

Although there are some members who are very worried now, after suffering a loss, no one has suggested selling brown cattle. Even if a few people have this idea, it is useless. The minority obeys the majority and the proposal cannot be passed. It is useless to say anything.

"Well, the key is to persevere and don't let short-term price fluctuations disrupt your rhythm. Of course, you don't have to worry. Xueling Dairy has signed a long-term supply agreement with you. Isn't there a guarantee that the cost price will be guaranteed?

.”

Qin Xifeng smiled and mentioned the agreement signed between the cooperative and Xueling Dairy.
