Chapter 336: The Dry Lake

It's been almost two months since the Queensland government restricted water use to farms around Lake Yamayama.

In the past two months, only the local government has carried out two artificial rainfalls, but the amount of rain in those two artificial rains is tantamount to a drop in the bucket - to no avail.

Barton Farm, the farmer, the Barton family, is now in despair because Lake Yamayama had completely dried up yesterday.

Although the deep-water wells he applied for had already been approved, the vast majority of the groundwater in the Artesian Basin was brackish.

Anyway, his luck was very bad, and he dug three wells in his farm, all of which were salty and salty water.

Today was the last time he drilled a well, and the previous three wells had already cost Barton a lot of money, so he could only pin his hopes on the last well, and if there was no fresh water this time, his farm would have to wait for God to rain as soon as possible.

If God doesn't rain soon, all the livestock on his farm will have to be sold, or the only way that awaits him will be bankruptcy.

Even if he sold all his livestock, Barton would have lost a lot of money, mainly because the price of livestock this year was so low that they doubted their lives.

The impact of the trade war and the stock market crash is very huge, and the livestock in Tuao and Macao do not need it, and most of the rice grains and American countries do not need it, after all, they themselves have overproduction and do not know who to sell to.

The West Continent Union is partly self-sufficient and could have absorbed part of the livestock production of Tuao, but the problem is that now it is affected by the stock market crash and the economy is very sluggish, and in this case, the demand for agricultural products and livestock market has decreased sharply.

The Black Continent side can't afford it, and they themselves are an agricultural country.

The rest of Tianzhu and minibuses are also quite cheating fathers, Tianzhu doesn't eat beef, minibuses they don't eat pork, and they don't have any money to spend.

At this moment, Tuao is completely confused, so many livestock and agricultural products are produced, but no one wants it, so you can't keep it for yourself!

Due to the effects of the drought, many farmers have had to sell their livestock to reduce their herds in order to reduce risk.

The problem is that now there are mountains of livestock in the port, no one wants to buy them, no one is willing to buy them, these livestock can only rot in the hands of the farmers themselves.

In this way, farmers who cannot recover their funds will inevitably suffer serious losses or even bankruptcy once their livestock die on a large scale.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Huge drilling rigs, under the operation of the engineering team, went deep into the ground like tofu.

In less than half a day, the raging groundwater gushed out.

Barton hurriedly took a bucket and flicked a bucket of water, directly held a handful of water in his hand, and sent it to his mouth, a salty bitterness filled his mouth.

"Poof!" Barton sat down on the ground in a dejected state.

The head of the drilling engineering team said helplessly: "I'm very sorry Patton, this well is useless." ”

"Damn the weather."

"Barton, look for an opportunity to sell some of the livestock." The rest of the engineering team was also very helpless, they had seen too many desperate farmers these days.

Barton didn't want to sell some of his livestock, but the livestock that could make a lot of money in previous years has entered the freezing point this year, and it doesn't matter if the price is low, the key is that no one cares.

No one wants to buy it, that's the real big problem, if someone buys, they can save some of their money, and now they can't even sell it.

He misses the days when the Eastern Tang Dynasty people bought and bought in Tuao, and blamed the parliament for the well-fed garbage, and followed the Mi Li family all day long, and now he is in big trouble, and he doesn't see the Mi Li family come to help.

It's really licking the dog until there is nothing left.

In the whole country of Turkey and Australia, there are not a few farmers who have suffered the same as Patton, and many people have been unable to bear the high debts and have to file for bankruptcy with the courts.

Soon the state governments were complained about by disgruntled farmers, and in some places there were even mass demonstrations and bloodshed.

This kind of huge pressure has made the old men of the Turk and Macao Parliament have to think about how to deal with the aftermath.

Whether it is livestock, agricultural products, iron ore, or desalination plants, these things can only be solved by compromising with Dongtang.

However, in the face of the capricious Tuao, Dongtang and the Galaxy Consortium plan to continue to dry them.

September 20th.

Unable to withstand the tremendous pressure at home, Tuao sent two heavyweights as plenipotentiaries to negotiate agricultural products, livestock, iron ore, and desalination plants.

Keelung, the headquarters of Tianhan Group.

On behalf of the Galaxy Consortium, Ai Heping received the Turkish-Australian negotiating team.

"Mr. Green, please." Ai Heping smiled and invited the other party's team leader, Green, to take a seat.

"Mr. Ai, please."

As soon as he took his seat, Green said straight to the point: "For the relationship between the two sides, we do have mishandled the situation, and here I am deeply sorry on behalf of the Turkish and Australian Parliaments." ”

"Anyone can make mistakes, but I don't choose to forgive, I don't want to listen to dry words." Ai Heping replied as he stared into Green's eyes.

"We are willing to hand over the order of 6G communication to your company, I don't know this apology, can I?"

"Just a 6G order?" Ai Heping shook his head.

"What does Mr. Ai mean?" Green asked rhetorically.

Ai Heping said indifferently:

"The Stars must enter Tuao, you must not discriminate, this includes all the industries under the Galaxy Consortium, since you claim to be a country in the free world, then please make yourself a free country look like."

"Mr. Ai, you know that this requirement is impossible, we must have certain restrictions on some things, and freedom does not mean absolute freedom." Green retorted.

"Really? I'm not asking too much, we don't need your preferential treatment, we just need a level playing field, if you can't do that, then what are you going to negotiate here?" Ai Heping sneered.

"......" Green suddenly didn't know how to respond, and after a while, he could only say helplessly: "I need a little time to communicate with China, and we will talk about it tomorrow." ”

"Yes."

The first meeting between the two sides ended unhappily.

Obviously, the Galaxy Consortium asked Turkey and Macao to open up the market restrictions, which really embarrassed them, if they really agreed, with the strength of Galaxy Technology, Turkey and Macao enterprises may have to receive lunch boxes.

However, in negotiations, one party must ask for a sky-high price, and one party will pay back the money on the ground.

As for their negotiations with the Eastern Tang side, the situation is more or less the same.

After returning to the hotel, Green hurriedly contacted the domestic parliament to discuss how to deal with the conditions of the Galaxy Foundation, and Green discussed with them for most of the night before coming up with a preliminary plan.

The next day.

"Mr. Ai, we can promise your company market access in communications, electronic equipment, and automobiles, but other aspects may require a security assessment." Green throws the condition first.

"No, I think you should allow us to invest in agriculture, food processing, and transportation, and on condition we can build desalination plants for you." Ai Heping came up with his own conditions.

The two sides have started a new round of verbal warfare, and Turkey and Macao would rather allow the industrial products of the Galaxy Consortium to enter than open restrictions on agricultural investment and mining investment.

After all, they are not stupid, agriculture and mining are the pillar industries of Tuao, once they are infiltrated by the Galaxy Consortium, there may be big problems, so they have to beware of Galaxy Technology.
