Chapter 297: The 540,000-acre Severosa Estate

A total of nine farms.

The nine farms connected together, confirmed by satellite scanning and terrain, were confirmed by Colorado government staff.

Their total area is 548,693.91 acres.

If some people cannot understand the English unit, then we can convert it into metric units. These 548,693.91 square acres are 2,220.48,524 square kilometers.

After rounding, it will be 2220 square kilometers.

If we don’t know how big the 2220 square kilometers is, then we can look up and look at a city below the country on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

The Oriental Pearl, once one of the Asian financial centers, Xiangjiang.

Let me put it this way, the land area of ​​Xiangjiang is only 1,106.34 square kilometers, which is only the area that has only been available after years of river sand alluvial and some soil filling and island building.

2220 square kilometers is the area of ​​two Xiangjiang Rivers! So you can imagine how big a piece of land Abel bought!

But don't think it's so big, because even if Abel's farm is totaled, its area is not as big as 2,220 square kilometers, not to mention the whole world, even in the United States, it cannot enter the top ten.

Because the largest farm and ranch in the world, its area is 23,677 square kilometers, which is larger than the land area of ​​the country of Israel!

Don’t think that owning 2,220 square kilometers of land is amazing, it’s just a super landlord. In the world, such a little bit of land cannot even enter the top 30.

Not to mention the Roman Catholic Church, the number one place, it owns 71.6 million hectares of private land. It is the world's largest non-government land owner. If 71.6 million hectares are converted into square kilometers, it is 716,000 square kilometers.

Almost equivalent to three British giants!

If it is an organization, not an individual, then the individual with the most private land should be Gina Reinhardt of Australia, who owns 12 million hectares of land, which is 120,000 square kilometers!

It's half a British big too!

Below both, there are a bunch of guys from millions to hundreds of thousands of hectares.

Compared with these people, the land Abel now possesses is simply a trash.

What's more, his 2220 square kilometers were originally divided into nine farms or ranches, under the names of eight different owners.

He bought them one by one and finally synthesized them into a large piece, which allowed such a large area of ​​super-large manor that combines agriculture and animal husbandry.

The negotiations didn't take long because the team led by Frank and Roosevelt had already negotiated with them the price.

In addition, Abel gave money very happily and was generous, and the contract was signed very quickly.

Half an hour after Abel arrived.

Nine contracts were signed.

Abel spent nearly US$1.3 billion, which included the price of land purchases and the high transfer taxes. This did not include the debts of the original nine farms of about US$247 million. According to the requirements of both parties, after he bought them, the debts would be automatically transferred to him.

The total cost exceeded US$1.5 billion.

In fact, this has exceeded the price of these lands. They were originally worth up to $1 billion, and some other properties on this land could reach up to $1.3 billion.

Once the largest irrigated ranch in Montana, the 124,000-acre Broken O ranch sold for only $135 million.

The various conditions of Broken O are much better than those of these farms in Colorado. However, this price is the previous price. Including inflation and some miscellaneous factors, the normal price is about $1 billion.

But Abel doesn't care.

Because his legal team and financial team told him that the money spent on buying land does not require taxes.

Abel, who has been worried about future tax payment problems, heard that this could avoid taxes on a large scale. Some of the special plots about the land in the Chinese soul made him not mind some small losses.

Bought the nine at a premium, which combined a total area of ​​more than 540,000 acres of farms and ranches.

Now he is a big landlord!

After signing the contract and confirming the transfer of funds, Abel politely rejected the invitation of several original owners who sold the farm or ranch at high prices. He smiled and sat on the Ford F650. Under the leadership of Roosevelt, who had long viewed the terrain, he began to patrol his territory like a king.

Starting from a small village called St. John and stepping through the stream called Newksey, the convoy entered a vast pasture.

This ranch was originally called Aroken Ranch, with a total area of ​​89,000 square acres, a price of 123 million US dollars, and a debt of about 20 million US dollars.

Now it is Abel's.

The convoy stopped in front of the ranch. Roosevelt took out the notes that had been prepared long ago, compared the ranch, and whispered: "This is Aroken Ranch, which has about 80,000 acres of high-quality pasture. It is planned to raise more than 20,000 sheep, 8,000 cattle, and 3,000 horses at the same time! The water source inside is rich and the irrigation conditions are very good! Currently, 6,634 sheep, 3,560 cattle, and 235 horses are raised! There were originally 58 staff members, but now 28 have left, and the remaining 30 are still waiting for your boss to fall."

Abel nodded.

It means he heard it himself.

Then whispered: "Go to the next place."

The convoy then left the Aroken Ranch and headed towards another farm next to it of about 70,000 acres, which was in excellent conditions in a huge valley terrain.

And Abel patrolled his farm and pasture all afternoon, and did not return to the small village of St. John until evening.

Four Hollywood beauties also came to the small village of St. John while Abel was patrolling his own territory.

Because this small village is in the center of the large land bought by Abel. There are streams, hillsides, grasslands and forests, and other fields and pastures are also very close to other fields.

Even the San Juan Mountains are not far from the San Juan National Natural Park, only a few miles away, and the transportation throughout the farm is very convenient.

That night.

After returning to the small village, Abel simply decided that this small village would be the core area of ​​his super manor in the future.

Those Basque people in Los Angeles, he would all move here, providing free housing and new jobs.

In this way, the name here can naturally be St. John's Village. After all, the name St. John's Village was chosen by the original owner.

Abel changed the village of St. John with a name.

From today on, the name of this small village is called Abel Manor, which is named after his own name! A total of 540,000 acres of about 2,220 square kilometers of land will be renamed to Sefrosa Farm, and a Qingqing Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Group Company will be established to be responsible for all matters on the surface.
