In the case of wheat, the top three yielding countries are all in Western Europe. Netherlands, Ireland and the United Kingdom.

Of course, China is said to have used the space environment to mutate wheat genes, and is also working on a super wheat. Lab-grown yields are very high, with at least four hundred bushels per acre.

However, in an ideal environment in the laboratory, the highest yield does not mean that the yield is also high in the field. It is possible to discount the yield of field planting and laboratory planting. So the kind of super wheat in China is at most the same as what is grown in the UK or Ireland today.

The United States would have had a genetically modified "neutered" wheat as well. However, it was strongly opposed by wheat farmers. They even invaded the experimental farms, destroyed the experimental fields, and sued the experimental farms for contaminating their own wheat. In the end, Meng Sandu had to promise not to sell the seeds publicly.

Link thought that the wheat he grew could exceed 280 bushels in the field, so he thought it was very high, and thought that maybe he could sell it in the UK through Bank. As a result, he was inadvertently slapped in the face by Bank.

He laughed and said, "It seems that my wheat seeds are not marketable in the UK." ”

Banker doesn't think so. "I've heard that agriculture in the U.S. is relatively rough," he said. ”

Perhaps only Western Europeans would dare to say that. Because I don't know how many countries envy American agriculture. And Banker has the confidence to say that.

He continued, "It's all mechanized agriculture, but American agriculture is too mechanical. Of course, the size of the farm in the United States is huge. But I've heard that farmers in the U.S. use a lazy way of farming. They don't even plough the land and sow the seeds. That is completely contrary to the basic principles of agriculture. Maybe your wheat seeds will yield more in the UK. ”

The British do have the right to say that about the Americans. The UK has the lowest proportion of economically active people in the country as a proportion of the country's economically active population. In the case of wheat, they have a surplus for export after satisfying the needs of one-fifth of the population of the United States with the equivalent of one-second of the United States' acreage. And the cost per unit area of agriculture in the United States may be the highest in the world.

The United States is the only country in the world where agriculture is oil farming. Farmers in the United States are completely dependent on machinery and too much on genetically modified technology.

Link didn't give up completely, nodded and said, "You're right, American farms do work as you say for a while. However, many farmers are now starting to dig deep and then planting. He paused. "Maybe I should find a farm in England to experiment with first. ”

Bank laughed, "That's a good idea indeed. But would you like to experiment with me? If I told you that the yield of wheat on Bank's estate was less than two hundred bushels per acre, you would certainly change your mind. I have a farm in Wales if you need it, maybe I can open up a test field there. ”

"That's great!" Link really hopes to open up the British market. If he does, he even hopes to set up a branch in the UK to sell wheat seeds.

Strictly speaking, the UK is not the most ideal country to promote wheat seeds in Europe. Britain has left the European Union.

However, it is still a European country after all. Wheat seeds are sold in the UK, and as long as the yield and quality of the wheat are good enough, it is easier to get into the rest of Europe.

As for why he had to choose the UK, it was because he knew only one person with a certain status in Europe, Bank. He wanted to sell seeds from the United States to other countries, and there was so much involved that he needed someone to help with it.

He felt that Bank had the ability. So, he asked Banker how he could get the seeds to be planted in the UK.

Bank knew what he meant. He thought for a moment and said, "I know some friends who might be able to help." I'll contact them first. If there is any progress, we will contact you. "No matter how connected he is, he will not be able to lobby the British government to agree to Link's wheat seeds into the UK. If there is any experimental data or something, it can only be provided by Link.

"I can send someone to assist you. ”

After that, they began to talk about everything, and Banker had an aristocratic temperament, and he was indeed very knowledgeable. However, Link is not bad, and most of the information can be found on the Internet now. He also has a wide range of knowledge.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Bank invited Link to visit his manor, but Link felt that it was time for him to take a walk.

Walking around his manor, it was almost dark. Bank invited the father and daughter to stay overnight at his estate. Link, of course, didn't refuse. He stayed at Bank Manor until noon the next day, and then left after lunch.

Then fly back to the United States.

The plane was still over Canada when he received a call from Jessica. Jessica's voice was excited: "Link, we made it!

She screamed so loudly that Link moved his phone slightly away from his ear and asked, "Is that the virus?"

"Yes, that's right! Thirty-six experimental groups, all viruses have reached the generation limit, all of them are dead and inactivated, and none of them have mutated. Animal and plant experiments have also confirmed that tissue cells have not been infected by viruses in a highly concentrated virus environment. ”

"That's great news!"

Jessica heard his blandness and said with dissatisfaction, "You can't be excited." You know, it's hundreds of billions of business. ”

"So shouldn't you go to the Ministry of Agriculture right now and apply for a sales permit?"

"Yes, I'm ready to go now. Our experiments were designed with different environments and conditions, and there is no reason why they should not approve the results of such experiments. ”

"I think you'd better be prepared to be vetoed. After all, the blow it will have on some industries will be overwhelming. And the infiltration of the mobilization department by those industries may be far worse than ours. ”

Jessica was much more optimistic than he was: "Yes, there must be a lot of them there. But we had enough time, and our experiments were very rigorous, and the Ministry of Agriculture was not a parliament, and they did not dare to drag it out and could not find a reason to veto. ”

She certainly has her reasons for optimism. The U.S. Department of Agriculture does not look at whether an agricultural product is harmful or not, but rather provides a business that makes them "believe" that the product is harmless. If the evidence provided cannot prove harmless, they will reject the application.

Other companies have put people into the Ministry of Agriculture in order to relax this degree of "belief". Jessica believes that the experiments conducted by Benehans are very rigorous, and the results show that there is no harm in the product. If the Ministry of Agriculture doesn't believe it, then they have to come up with evidence that the product is harmful.

She doesn't believe that the Ministry of Agriculture can come up with evidence!

Link smiled and said, "Are you going to start DC?"

"Yes, I've had people rent planes. I went with my dad and two other researchers. Where are you now?"

"I just said that it has entered Canadian airspace. ”

"How is Hannah?"

Link glanced up at his daughter and said, "She's waiting to talk to you." ”

"Then let me talk to her!"

Link was still in the skies over Canada, but someone was talking about him at Fox.

Inside Fox's mayor's office, Kemp looked at the man in front of him, frowned, and said, "Mr. Plant, you have a good idea. But why should I agree?"

The Plant in his mouth is none other than Astoria. Three more days later, Pacific Ridge Homes still couldn't think of a way to stop Link from building affordable homes for workers in Beaver. And they received the news that the vast majority of the employees at Link's factory said they would be willing to live in Beaver if they could have affordable housing.

This made them completely lose faith in Fox's new town project. If they continue, not only will they have to pay Fox 16 million dollars, but then if they don't want to be paid liquidated damages, they will have to build up a huge backlog of money in the project.

That's not in line with their business philosophy. And their company can't afford to lose.

Astoria, in order not to be a scapegoat, persuaded McCammon to abandon the project. But they weren't willing to lose $1.6 million in margin.

"Mr. Mayor, the plan proposed by our company is a plan that is beneficial to all three parties. You see, if we go ahead with this project, Link Hans will build a lot of homes in Beaver, and Fox's new town will probably become empty. Our company loses money, and Fox will be a joke. If you agree with our plan, we have nothing to lose, and Fox's new city plan will come to fruition. Link Hans was able to continue with his original plan. ”

Kemp smiled and said, "What you said seems to make a lot of sense. But you know, this project was started by Fox and Link Hans. It was your Mid-Pacific Ridge homeland that stepped in cheaply. If you want to avoid a bigger loss, you just need to not pay the rest of the money in the future. ”

Astoria still smiled and said, "Mr. Mayor, but we still have a loss in that way." ”

"Mr. Plant, you don't need to say more. Now that you have bid for the land, you have only two options, which is to continue with the project or abandon the bid. Of course, maybe you can convince Link Hans to return the deposit to you. ”

Astoria came to Camp to convince Link to help them pay the $1.6 million bond. Then they discarded the bid. To this, of course, Camp could not agree.

"Mr. Mayor, we all know that you have a good personal relationship with him. We'll talk to him in person, of course, but we also want you to help us convince him to accept our terms. Of course, after the deed, we thank you with practical actions. He said as he pulled out a piece of paper from his briefcase. ”

Camp didn't reach for it, but glanced at it: it was a check for $30,000.

Astoria's heart sank when he saw that he didn't even stretch out his hand, but he still smiled and said, "Of course, after the fact, our gratitude is twice as much as this time." ”

Kemp smiled and shook his head and said, "Mr. Plant, if you don't put away the check, I'll accuse you of trying to bribe." ”

Astoria's smile slowly cooled and said, "Mr. Mayor, you should know that if we continue to stalemate, it will not be good for anyone. ”

"I only know the spirit of the contract. Mr. Plant, the time has come. I still have to work. ”
