018 Keep working hard

Chen Chen looked at the weather and felt that the weather was not very good. A job like digging truffles is really affected by the weather.

I just look forward to not raining heavily, and even light rain is best not to have it, otherwise it will have a great impact on Chen Chen. Be careful that the mountain roads are slippery, not to mention that they are wet, and work such as digging soil will be affected.

After driving, Chen Chen needs to hurry up and dig more truffles.

Chen Chen was in a good mood when he entered the mountain. He didn't see any signs of rain during his journey. The most important thing is that he did not see any traces left by other truffle hunters along the way, which is definitely good news.

Although Chen Chen may be the target of being teased in the bar, those people think that Chen Chen, a rookie, can't dig truffles at all, and is just wandering around in the mountains and wasting his energy. But Chen Chen was laughing secretly in his heart, and his Feng Shui treasure land would not be exposed.

As soon as he got off the Broken Slope, Chen Chen couldn't help but sigh. Digging truffles is not an easy thing.

Not far ahead there is a wild boar, which is leisurely foraging. This makes Chen Chen unable to help but want to complain that wild boars are a bit overflowing in the United States, and some places will hire professional hunters to hunt wild boars. Some rich people even take helicopters to hunt wild boars.

"ah"

Groot, who had just landed, was furious, and two thin vines appeared in his hand, rushing towards the wild boar like he was dragging two long whips.

Chen Chen was shocked. He didn't bring a gun. Although he brought two daggers, it would be difficult to kill wild boars. He did have experience in hunting, but they were all with guns. What's more, he had experience in hunting, so he realized that hunting is very professional, not to mention that he just had a gun.

Groot is a typical newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger, and he rushed towards the wild boar with great momentum.

The wild boar was originally looking for food leisurely, arching the soil with its nose and fangs, trying to get out the delicious food in the soil. However, facing the invaders that suddenly emerged, the wild boar was shocked. A little guy like Groot didn't need to take it seriously, and the human being rushing towards him with a knife was a little scared by the wild boar.

Many wild animals actually have this habit. They often judge their opponent's strength, and often look at their body shape. These more sensitive beasts will become brave when they detect the opponent's momentum. When they feel that their opponent's momentum is strong, many beasts will run away immediately, which is also normal.

The wild boar was obviously frightened and fled in panic, which also made Chen Chen breathe a sigh of relief.

He is so brave because Groot charges first. The most important thing is that Chen Chen knows that even if he encounters any danger, he can climb trees as soon as possible. If he encounters some wild beasts that can climb trees, Chen Chen will definitely not be so brave.

The wild boar was driven away, and Chen Chen once again completed the work of protecting the territory, which was what he should do.

"Groot, start to act." Looking at the soil that was arched by the wild boar, Chen Chen couldn't help feeling distressed. "This wild boar may have made a lot of good things. If my truffle is eaten by it, it will suffer heavy losses."

Groot immediately walked forward a few steps. One reason was that the land that the wild boars overturned was very dirty. On the other hand, Groot was more interested in finding truffles. If you want to find truffles, Groot is a professional.

Chen Chen stood leisurely, sorted out his equipment, ready to start construction at any time.

Groot squinted his eyes and searched for the truffles in the soil. It was not difficult for him, it was just a matter of time.

"ah"

Groot opened his eyes and pointed to a clearing in front of him.

Chen Chen laughed and needed to start construction. Groot could find truffles accurately every time, and what Chen Chen needed to do was to flip the land so that he could harvest valuable truffles.

What Truffle Hound, Truffle Pig, and Groot are not at the same level at all, not at the same level at all.

Chen Chen was happily digging truffles, and the output of this land was quite satisfactory. Because Groot could easily dig out truffles, Chen Chen could naturally efficiently dig out truffles.

Seeing the more and more truffles in the bottle, Chen Chen became more and more satisfied. It seems that this is another day of harvest, which is gratifying.

However, Chen Chen also felt that such a Feng Shui treasure land could not be kept here forever, and the growth rate of truffles would definitely not keep up with Chen Chen's excavation speed. Looking for a new territory again must also be taken into consideration.

According to Chen Chen's expectations, it can be dug here for at most another week, and there must be some time to rest here.

Leaving the forest with a lot of truffles, driving the car straight to the motel.

The hotel staff are already familiar with Chen Chen and know that this is a young man who came to the sister city to dig truffles. Chen Chen has indeed booked a room here, and it seems that he has planned to stay here for a long time.

After washing up, Chen Chen put the truffle into the basket and then waited for Jones' arrival while resting.

Jones called, and Chen Chen immediately came to the parking lot with the truffle.

"Brother, it seems like this is another day of harvest." Looking at the truffle brought by Chen Chen, Jones was in a good mood, "Do you have thirty pounds?"

Chen Chen smiled and nodded, full of confidence, "Thirty-two pounds, I have been looking forward to digging a giant truffle that can be delivered to the auction. It seems that I am going to be disappointed, I haven't found it yet."

"Today, this batch of truffles needs to be stored, so we are going to buy a freshener." Jones said to Chen Chen while sucking the clouds and spitting out of stock, "We need to keep some inventory so that we can keep supply when the stock is out of stock."

Chen Chen didn't think there was something wrong with this. As a middleman, Jones and Jason really need to consider the preservation of truffles. It doesn't mean that the truffles dug out every day can be sold immediately, including in some special circumstances, there is not enough output, so naturally they need to pay out inventory.

Jones took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Chen Chen, and his brothers also had to settle the accounts clearly. What's more, they were doing business together, so some things were naturally clearer, and there was no problem with this.

Chen Chen smiled and put the money in his pocket and joked, "I'm considering changing a car now, it should be retired."

Jones agreed and laughed, "I never borrowed your car, it could break down on the road at any time. You should be able to afford a good car now. Do you have any plans?"

"It should be to buy a pickup truck first, which is more suitable for me." Chen Chen laughed and said to Jones, "I plan to buy a small farm or a ranch, which is not suitable for buying a sports car for the time being."

It seems like I can buy a starting car now!

In fact, with Chen Chen’s current value, it’s okay to buy a pretty good pickup truck. But a better sports car can’t afford it at all.

Jones couldn't help frowning and reminded, "I know you went to work in the ranch some time ago, but I don't support you as a rancher. Running a ranch is not an easy thing, and running a farm is not easy."

"Maybe, but I think I can try it." Chen Chen couldn't help but look forward to it, full of expectations. "I have been paying attention to the land in California. I don't want to go to Montana or Texas, or California is more suitable for me."

Jones was speechless and felt that Chen Chen was really inflated.

Places like Montana, Texas or Wyoming are relatively cheaper for agricultural land. Whereas places like California, even agricultural land prices are higher than those of some large and sparsely populated states, this is not cheap. What's more, different land types and prices are also different.

In recent years, the prices of agricultural land in the United States have actually been rising overall.

For example, in 2018, the average agricultural land price in the United States exceeded 3,100 US dollars. The prices in the corn belt area were even higher, and the Missouri even exceeded 6,000 US dollars per acre. For ranches, the average price was 1,400 US dollars per acre.

The data reflects that farmland has risen by 1% and pastures have risen by 3%.

The price of agricultural land in California and Oregon is more than 10,000 US dollars per acre. For ranches, it seems to be close to 3,000 US dollars.

This is not cheap. If Chen Chen wants to buy land, he has to save more money. Even if he knows that different environments, different soil quality, etc. will affect the price of the land. No matter what, the little money in Chen Chen’s pocket now is really not enough to buy a farm or ranch.
