Cohen's younger brother is an FBI senior agent in Illinois.

Today Cohen received a call from his brother.

His brother called him and said, "Cohen, you can't do that. The police department has issued a written apology letter and at the same time publicly apologized on its official website. ”

Cohen didn't expect that the clever plan he came up with would be stillborn before it had even half worked.

He asked unwillingly: "Isn't it possible that someone sues him and can't list him as a suspect?"

His brother said impatiently: "Because the prosecution has not been able to provide any conclusive evidence." If that makes people suspects, perhaps all Americans, including the president, could become murder suspects. His lawyer filed a complaint with the State Administrative Complaint Center last night, and two big names were found. The police couldn't afford any delay, and now I'm being asked to explain. So that's all I can do here. ”

"I see. ”

Cohen didn't think that finding someone to report the crime would actually throw Link in jail. His purpose was just to wait for Link to be arraigned and get reporters to make specious reports, and then he would fan the flames and put Link in trouble with public opinion.

He didn't believe that Link was suspected of murder and could deal with it calmly. It's just that he noticed that Link seemed to be starting to get smarter. It's already easy to deal with such small means. It seems that he wants to make trouble for Link through such a small means, and there is no way to interfere with Link.

After hanging up, he had to think of new ways to deal with the attack being launched by Benehans.

For now, at least as far as he knows, he doesn't need to escape the fear that Benehans will be able to grab too much of the market. But he used to be an FBI investigator and understood that many things failed because they didn't pay enough attention.

Benehans began yesterday and yesterday with hundreds of teams to provide services to its customers.

That's all he already has. What worries him the most is that Benehans' sales seem to be growing at a high rate. Although he can't get accurate data. However, the product sales outlets in the states are all "informants" of their companies, and the farmers everywhere will receive some rumors of any trouble.

According to outlets around the country, more and more farmers are considering the use of Amaranth virus after Benihans's publicity. But how many people have already decided, no one knows.

At present, their new product has been confirmed to be available for sale in September. But at that time, it was too late this year. Maybe next year they can regain the market. But Benehans will also be able to stand firm this year's success and become their competitors from now on. Moreover, it is an opponent with great strength and great potential.

Now that it has been determined that it will not be possible to launch new products in the short term to stabilize the market, the main task of his marketing manager is to try to block the other party's offensive to seize the market. That's his job.

He hoped for good news. They have achieved nothing other than to get organic certification organizations to imply that viral products are not welcome by their operations. But the news he got now was not very good for him and for the three governors.

He was thinking about what to do with Benehans when his phone rang. If it's a senior executive at the company, it's usually his desk phone. However, when it came to the call on the mobile phone, he didn't dare to slack off. Because that could be a call to him to report the latest market information.

The call did bring him an important piece of market information, but it was obviously very bad news. He listened to the call, although the voice of the reply was still optimistic and brisk. But his face was so gloomy that he could drip water.

After he hung up the phone, he immediately picked up the phone on his desk and dialed the internal line: "Ashton, are you free? ”

He put down the phone, squinting his eyes and thinking about how to deal with the sudden situation.

Link went to Texas again, and with his pregnant girlfriend, the president, who was going to meet hundreds of farmers from hundreds of northern Texas. Benehans went to Texas with two of the most important people, and he didn't think it was just to play. That must be a big move.

He sensed that this was a very clear signal: Benehans' offensive was far more intense than he had imagined. And he couldn't think of any way to deal with the situation. This realization suddenly filled him with a sense of powerlessness.

Sometimes, it doesn't feel good to be remembered all the time. But Link's interest is quite high right now.

The cotton fields in the collection of the Holland Agricultural Bank have automatic irrigation equipment. The Amaranth virus can be sprayed with these devices.

The virus turns into cysts when it leaves the factory, and it takes a day for them to be "activated" before being used. A team from Benihans brought the virus and various equipment to the Holland ranch yesterday.

By the afternoon, the viruses were ready to use.

Because the cotton fields have a central rotary irrigation system, spraying the virus on the cotton fields is fairly simple. The activated virus is slowly poured into the water tank in the center of the cotton field, and the automatic irrigation system sprays the water containing the virus into the field.

By this time, weeds in the field had begun to grow. And the seeds of Amaranth have basically begun to germinate. It's the best time to use the virus.

There were many farmers who came to observe, at least more than 300 people.

These farmers are not all owners of cotton and cotton farms, but many are livestock ranchers.

With an automatic irrigation system, it is natural to generate a lot of water mist. When the mist appeared in front of them, the farmers who came to visit retreated. But Link and Jessica are still standing on the edge of the farmland.

This reassured the farmers a lot. Jessica's slightly bulging belly proves that she is pregnant. Not a pregnant woman is afraid of these viruses, which makes them really believe that this virus is harmless to humans.

A fat man with a beard on his face came to Link shaking his big ass and said, "Link, how many days will your virus work?"

"Three days at the fastest, two weeks at the slowest. If you need to understand the mechanism of action, maybe Jessica can explain it to you in more detail. ”

The fat man nodded and said, "Yes, I wonder if after the virus works, it will only allow the amaranth to be temporarily suppressed or really killed." ”

Jessica smiled and exclaimed, "Maybe a lot of people care about this. The mechanism of action of the Amaranth virus is mainly the destruction of the ductal cells of Amaranth longifolia, including the ducts of stems and roots. When the ducts of Amaranth are destroyed, the water cannot supply the leaves and the nutrients cannot reach the root system. Eventually, the root system will die. That's why we're committed to a year-round weed removal. ”

At this time, another farmer also came up to him and questioned: "Now I believe that this virus is harmless." But the service you mentioned, I don't see that there is too much technical content in it, and we can operate it ourselves. Since we don't need your services, why not lower the price and sell the product directly to us for our own use?"

Link laughed and said, "Swell, most things look simple, but a lot of times, it's not easy! In fact, if we could buy things directly from the farmer, then our profits would be higher." Because we will definitely sell the product at the current price. However, we still choose a more costly sales method and provide professional technical services. Otherwise, you should buy professional thermostatic activation equipment. You know, that's a big expense, and a lot of farmers need a period of training to make sure the revitalization is successful. But I don't think you have the time to do that kind of training. ”

"It's been a long time since I've been to school. I don't want to go to school anymore. Not even for a day. ”

"That's it, our staff have to go through a month and a half of full-time training to master those skills. Therefore, we provide services to ensure the effectiveness of the use of these viruses. ”

Link laughed and continued, "And as you can see, we've brought a lot of equipment that can be used specifically to deal with farms that only have Amaranth virus on part of their land. This allows the farmer to save a lot of money. ”

The fat man nodded again and again, "I was about to ask this question." About one-third of my ranch has dense Amaranth, but the rest of the land doesn't have many Amaranth, so if I'm going to use your virus, how do I calculate the cost?"

Link had thought about this before, and had talked to Jessica. In the case of farmland, there are usually Amaranth in the whole area, and the distribution is relatively even, while some pastures, however, are different, they may only appear in part of the area, and even if there are other places, only a small amount.

So they decided to treat the two situations separately in the hope of attracting more farms to use their products as well.

For pastures with obvious differences in the distribution of Amaranth longifolia, the cost cannot be included in the calculation of the area of the entire pasture.

"We have a fixed standard for this, first we do a survey of the entire farm," he explains with a smile. If the density of Amaranth in part of a pasture exceeds a certain standard, we charge the full amount for this part of the land, and there are other areas with Amaranth longi, but the density is not large, and the distribution is more concentrated, we can calculate the cost according to different lower proportions. Of course, if there is no amaranth in a large area, or only a very small amount, we will not include it in the scope of the charge. ”

His explanation really made some ranchers more interested in the Amaranth virus. According to the charging standard he just mentioned, the cost of using the Amaranth virus on their ranch seems to be even lower.

"What if there were regional differences in farmland?"

Of course, it is also calculated according to the standard difference. Link replied with a smile. "And the cost per acre in the second year is only 60 percent of the first year. ”

This has some planting farmers calculating in their minds. If herbicides are used, they must be used throughout the field. Whereas Amaranth virus only needs to be used in part of the area. Calculated that the cost is not as high as they previously thought.

Seeing that they seemed to be a little moved, Link smiled and suggested, "If we want to see our company's true service to customers, maybe we should go to the meadows in Kempna." Weeding operations are being carried out using our professional equipment. ”
