Volume 3 Chapter 100 The Relationship Between Giving and Getting (Weekend Protector 3)
This time, both Li Sheng and Tia stayed until the end of the wedding reception. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At the end of Fernando's lavish wedding, Chen Bo took Mo Lan back to China the next day. Li Sheng took Tia to play in Lisbon for two days before returning to Brazil.
After returning to Brazil, Tia rested for the night, and the next day asked Li Sheng to send him to the Gilolo tribe. Speaking of which, she hadn't seen her family in a while. Li Sheng couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart. Although he was thinking about Tia, he let her go to school in Huaxia mainly because of him.
The adult men of the Jilolo tribe have already gone to work on the farm, but the children are on vacation, some women are also there, and Li Sheng is not worried that Tia will be bored. He stayed in the Gilolo tribe for a while, said a few simple words to his future mother-in-law, and left.
The people of the Gilolo tribe are now able to speak a few words of Portuguese. Women have less contact with people, especially the older ones, who are slower learners. If they didn't learn Portuguese to understand how to farm, they might not even be able to learn it.
But just like that, Li Sheng also thinks it's okay. At least in the future, Tia doesn't have to worry about the difficulty of integrating into modern society.
After he left the farm, he walked around the construction site and went to the office without finding any problems. He had been in China for nearly ten days, and he had been to Portugal for three or four days, and with the time spent on the road, he had already left the farm for half a month.
However, despite being away for so long, the farm is all about business, and there are not many things he has to deal with.
Thomas heard that he was back and came to his office as soon as he could.
It turned out that after a month, the teams of Rio and SΓ£o Paulo for the Farm Soccer Cup had been selected. Thomas handed him a few pieces of paper and said, "This qualifier in two cities has a total of 138 teams. This is the final winner. β
Li Sheng looked at the few pieces of paper he had given. That's a list of teams that are going to play, with a brief introduction on it, and a list of players and ages for each team.
He looked up and asked, "Another one that participates in the name of the school?"
"Yes. Eighty per cent of the teams participating in the qualifiers came from the two slums, while others came from ordinary or wealthy families. Our age limit for players is thirteen to eighteen years old. Since it was a school holiday recently, there were many junior high school students in the team. This team, which participates in the name of the school, is said to be a varsity team. β
Li Sheng nodded, looked at it carefully and asked, "Is the age of these players true?"
"We all ask for proof of the age of the players. β
Li Sheng nodded again and said, "Then invite them to the farm as soon as possible." "If it's too late, maybe some players won't be able to come. Because school is about to start.
"The farm is almost ready. How do you think the game starts in five days?"
"How many playing fields are there on the farm?"
"Two new stadiums have been renovated. You can play one round in the morning and afternoon of the day. "Thomas was preparing for this tournament and of course knew the format.
"What about logistics?"
"Room and board can be guaranteed. We can charter flights to pick up these teams in both cities. We have invited some PE teachers from schools in SΓ£o Paulo and Rio to referee, and we also send some referees from our farm. In addition, we work with the SΓ£o Paulo School of Nursing. When the time comes, they will send interns to take on the medical work of the competition. β
Li Sheng heard him say this, nodded and said, "Then according to what you said, the competition will start in five days." All participating teams will be informed of this. Also, the Caboquero team did not forget to notice. β
In this cup, he is not concerned about who will win in the end, but whether the level can play a role in Mariano's actual training.
"I will. Thomas said with a smile. "Now we have a pretty close relationship with the Cabocro people. Nearby villages have taken the potatoes that were given to them from the farm. We also sent people to teach them how to plant. In addition, we have sent people to work with the village radio stations of the Cabokro people to teach them how to grow potatoes. β
Li Sheng is very satisfied with the cooperation with the village radio. He hadn't thought of it before.
"The idea of working with the radio station was fantastic. He laughs. "At least let the Capocros know our good intentions. β
Thomas tells him that they get more than just kindness, but more: "It did make most of the Caboquero people aware of the potatoes we gave away." Sandru mentioned to me that the head of the radio station had received calls from Cabocros in many other places asking where the potato seeds came from. The yield of potatoes made them very excited. β
Potatoes are not originally suitable for tropical cultivation. Potatoes can be used as grain and vegetables, with a yield of more than 1,000 catties per mu, especially in the Amazon Plain, this crop can also be planted two times a year. That one acre is more than 2,000 catties a year. It really makes people excited.
Thomas laughed and said, "I understand what Sandru means, but I think it's up to you to decide, so I pretended not to hear it." β
When Li Sheng heard him say this, he knew that what he was thinking in his heart might not be the same as what he said, so he smiled and said, "Tell me what advice you have for this matter?"
Thomas seemed to think about it for a moment and said, "I think we can serve potatoes." However, it cannot be delivered directly. We can't give it away if anybody wants it. One is to prevent more people from asking for it in the future. On the other hand, we can also think of this thing as a benefit for the Cabocros who serve the farm. β
Li Sheng felt that his statement was very reasonable, and asked, "You mean to sell to them?" Selling and giving away is not very important to him. "How many potatoes are left on the farm?"
"The potatoes have just been harvested, and they should be about 70,000 tons. β
"There are so many horse snack farms that you can't eat them all. It's a bit wasteful to use as feed. If the Cabocros want it, sell the seeds to them at half price. Each village cannot exceed one ton. If you want to buy more, sell it at the market price. β
"I'll let Sandru know later. Thomas nodded. "One more thing, the elders of the Altai Docao tribe of SantarΓ©m approached Sandru and asked if you would have time to meet him. β
"Elder, is he looking for me?"
"Every Indian tribe has its own priest or elder. The most respected man in their tribe. It is said that some of the Capocros formed a number of alliances, but these alliances were not for war, but for unity. And the core of the alliance is said to be the Council of Elders composed of their elders. Thomas explained. "What exactly it was, Sandru didn't say. But I think it's probably possible to come to the farm and ask for help or something. β
Li Sheng nodded to show that he understood, and said, "I will be on the farm recently." There is still time. β
He really wants to meet someone like that. He did a lot of things just to win the power of the Indians, and now that the big man is coming, he must give the other party enough respect and benefits.
But since he had to receive guests, he had to be prepared.
The customs of the Indians are different from tribe to tribe, and if you do something wrong, a good thing can turn into a bad thing. If he didn't care, it wouldn't be a big deal. The thing is, he does care. In terms of running the Indians, he has already invested a lot, and he can't fall short because of some details.
He asked: "How much do you know about the situation of the Altai Dokao tribe?"
"All I know is that they have a beautiful beach near their reserve. I've been there before. There are Indians there who sell handicrafts. I think most of them are people from the Altai Dokao tribe. They are actually made up of several villages, and their income should be relatively high. It is said that several of them are from their tribe on the village radio. β
Although Thomas is vague, Li Sheng can probably get a vague impression of the Altai Dokao tribe from his words. This is a tribe with ambitions to lead the Capocros, and whether this ambition is good or bad, he is not going to make an evaluation. But for him, it is more advantageous to have ambition than nothing. If the Caboquero people are all without desirelessness, there is no need for him to fight for them.
Of course, in this world where monks and temples are all on the market, he doesn't believe that there are people who have no desires and no desires. The elders of the Altai Dokao tribe wanted to see him, whether it was for cooperation or help, as long as it was not too much, he could consider it
He pondered for a while, and then said, "Then you ask Sandru what is there to avoid in entertaining Elder Altai Dokao. He was the first big man to make such an official visit to the farm. Our reception should be more grand. He said it, and it was a bit of a joke to the back.
Thomas smiled and said, "Okay." I'll ask him. β
"There's one more thing you need to decide. Thomas said, smiling. "A TV station in Huaxia is filming a documentary about Brazil. Among them is about Amazon. They contacted me the day before yesterday and said they wanted to shoot some footage on the farm, including the Gilolo tribe and the Capocros who work on the farm, as well as about our farm. β
Li Sheng heard that it was Huaxia's TV station that was going to make a documentary, and he couldn't help but wonder: "Do you know which TV station it is?"
"They claim to be the largest TV station in China. β
If it's true, it must be the imperial court. There is a special documentary channel on the Imperial Court Channel, but in fact, many of the programs broadcast are documentaries by foreigners.
Now that they are coming to Brazil to make a documentary, Li Sheng still needs to support it in principle. It's just that he can't make decisions for others: "I have no opinion on the shooting farm, but the Gilolo and Cabocro you ask for their opinion." Also, it's a good idea to make an appointment on the exact time. β
"I will. Thomas feels that Li Sheng may have many shortcomings personally, but one day he is very worthy of recognition, and he will maintain due respect for whoever he is.
For example, it stands to reason that as long as he agrees, the Gilolo and Capocros on the farm will give him face even if they don't want to. But Li Sheng did not ignore the wishes of others just because he was the owner of Silent Farm.
This was the case last time Chinese people came to shoot a movie, and this time it is still like this. (To be continued.) )
