"I'm sorry, Mr. Doolin, I may not have understood you, you mean ......", a farmer with a thick hat stood in the wilderness outside the city and looked at the land that had just been ceded, with a bit of a hellish feeling, "You mean we don't use pesticides and catch bugs with our hands?"

Bugs can be found everywhere, and it is said that there are still some small creatures in the mantle, but in the open ecological environment of the west, there are not much fewer bugs than people think. The ecological environment here is relatively harsh, and the insects living here are also very "tough". These gadgets have a powerful gluttonous eating ability, and a single caterpillar can nibble on leaves about twenty to thirty times its weight in a single day.

They will store this food in their stomachs to survive a possible "famine". Whenever new farmland is cultivated, the primary concern is the efficiency of pesticides. I don't know when the effective time of the new insecticide has been shortened to two or three years, and after the time limit, the insect will of course die if it is soaked in pesticides, but it is not poisoned, it is drowned. Therefore, after the beginning of spring, people will take some insects that hatch first at home and go to the sales points of major pesticide companies in the west to check the efficacy of pesticides this year.

These insects are always very troublesome, not only is it troublesome to sprinkle pesticides, but it is also very troublesome to soak and disinfect the work after sprinkling pesticides and harvesting. In the West, the price of vegetables is about the same price as the lowest grade beef, and sometimes a little higher.

Standing in front of a group of farmers, Durin nodded, "That's right, our farmland doesn't need any pesticides, and all the bugs must be done by hand to ensure that all crops are not infected with pesticides." ”

"But it's a lot of work, we can't make sure that the back of every leaf is bug-free, and with all due respect, it's more wasteful. Some of the new pesticides don't leave too much residue, they have a special cleaning agent ......," the farmer was still talking about, but Durin raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

"I have invited you to come and give you a good salary, not to discuss with you what I am going to do with the land, but only to follow my orders, which is why I pay you. "You are the best farmers here, and I am sure you will help me to keep these fields very beautiful, and as long as I am satisfied, material rewards will always appear in front of you." Now, I hope you will lead my men to turn over all the land here, and spring is not far off!"

The farmers still complained, but they finally relented under the high salary offered by Dürin. No one is at odds with money, whether he is a big man or a small man like a farmer.

The farmers hired by Doolin were all good farmers in the neighborhood, or farmers for generations, who knew the land and the crops better than the scholars who sat in their offices and enjoyed a coffee and a massage. These people will be the biggest motivator for this land, helping him to cultivate 500 hectares of land as soon as possible.

Twenty brand-new agricultural vehicles were suddenly launched, and the local Guartes and some locals began to farm.

When I returned to the villa, Du Buddha was a little strange, I didn't do the mining industry, how did I think of farming and animal husbandry?

His question was quickly answered by Durin, "The reason is very simple, one is for economic effect, and the other is to kidnap more natives in the west!"

"How much do you think a sweet cabbage can sell for?", sweet cabbage is a cheap vegetable widely cultivated in the empire, each weighing is about one to two catties, and it is also quite versatile. It can be cooked as a main dish, but more often it is used as a side dish, such as hot dogs, burgers and other fast foods, as well as barbecue staples.

Du Fo recalled for a moment, and replied tentatively, "A penny?"

Durin smiled and hung his coat on the hanger, "No, my ideal price is ten, or even more." "You have to understand that the upper class is very particular about food, especially those rich nobles, they don't care if they eat ten yuan or a hundred yuan for a meal. They only care about whether what they eat is good enough and whether it can become an ingredient to set off their value. ”

"Which one do you think they will choose? And we will package these sweet cabbages, which will attract these rich people to consume blindly!"

Dufo reacted instantly, he didn't use his brains doesn't mean that he is a fool, "That's why you don't use pesticides to catch insects?"

"That's right!", the two walked to the sofa and sat down casually, the family is their own people, there is no need to put up any shelves, "There will be absolutely no chemical pollution, every sweet cabbage is artificially caught by insects, enjoy individual care, with more scientific sunshine, irrigation and fertilization, there will be people who pay for these sweet cabbage." Do you know how many sweet cabbages can be planted in an acre of land?", Du Buddha shook his head, he didn't know much about these things, and Durin continued: "An acre of land can grow about two thousand six or seven hundred, which counts as two thousand five hundred......"

At this time, Du Fo suddenly gasped, he looked at the hair on Du Lin's head a little strangely, "How does your head grow? If you can do all these things, the income of one acre of land can exceed two hundred yuan?", he calculated, five hundred hectares a year and three seasons, these incomes alone are probably ...... , he snapped his fingers, anyway, it's millions!

It's also farming, why is this guy's brain able to come up with things that others can't think of, so let's leave the things that use our brains to Doolin to do!

Seeing that Dover suddenly lost the motivation to continue the discussion, Durin did not continue. In fact, the money is not what he cares about the most, what he cares about most is how many people these lands can kidnap. If an acre of land can accommodate ten people to work, then one hectare is one hundred and fifty thousand people, and five hundred hectares is seventy-five thousand. Seventy-five thousand people placed in the south or on the east coast may account for only a few to ten percent of a city's workforce.

However, in the west, the population of a city will not exceed 1 million at most, and according to the calculation of those cities with a population of 500,000 or 600,000, this can almost meet the demand for jobs in a city. In other words, as long as it can be ensured that these farmers and herders can keep their salaries. At that time, all the farms will be fully spread out in the west, and it can be said that Duhrin will become the "boss" of the vast majority of people in the west. More than 30 to 40 percent of the people here are his employees.

At that point, here he has the final say.

Of course, the mine should be dug or dug up, and the degree of profit in the mining area is far greater than that of farming, the burden is smaller, the expenditure is less, and the income is more stable, which can help Duhrin make up for the economic pressure brought by overemploying farmers.

The workers on the farm are in full swing, and before you know it, it is almost February, the tail of winter is looming, the pace of spring has been sounded, people are beginning to take off their thick coats, even the desolate west, there is a hint of life.

Early in the morning, in the conference room of the town hall, Donald signed a contract for the full development of the second phase of the city of Otis with Mr. Polly Capet, a representative of the Capet family, in the conference room of the town hall. This means that the entire circle around the city of Otis will enter the construction phase. Outside the window, there was a crowd marching with plaques and banners, but attention was focused on the room.

Polly was Solo's nephew and one of the contenders for the heir, and the two heirs were assigned two jobs, one in the city of Otis and one in the new district in the south. Polly is the head of the city of Otis, and whoever can bring more benefits to the family than planned will be able to sit in the position of head of the family. It's fair, the Capetian family has their own way of evaluation, and the battle for the heir has entered the final stage.

Standing behind his desk in front of reporters from both local and out-of-town, Polly exchanged contracts with Donald, and under a series of flashes of spotlights, he announced loudly, "Starting today, the Anthem Foundation will allocate no less than 70 million funds for the second phase of the city construction plan of Otis City, and we will continue to expand one kilometer around the existing urban area, and strive to make Otis City one of the largest cities in the hinterland of the empire." ”

"In this process, we will provide at least 180,000 jobs, solve some of the current problems, and help the city hall of Otis sort out some conflicts. I am confident that with the cooperation of the Anthem Foundation and the City Hall, the city of Otis will once again reach a new level......"

In fact, this statement should logically be made by Mr. Donald, the mayor of Otis City, but now that he has taken refuge in the Capetian family, Polly, as the next likely heir to become the head of the family, is obviously in a much higher position than him, and he must give way to Polly.

He looked at Polly with a somewhat complicated expression, his secretary tugged at his sleeve lightly behind him, he frowned and glanced back, his secretary pointed to the receiver that had been placed aside next to the telephone cabinet.

He took a few steps back, turned around and walked to the phone cabinet and picked up the earpiece, the sound coming from the earpiece made his originally barely able emotion, and instantly went to a very poor abyss.
