Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Richest Man

Catching a glimpse of the Assassin's leader's ugly expression, Leon smiled, lifted the beef from the plate with a fork, and whispered, "Don't have a mental barrier, this steak is purely cultivated from the cells of Kobe cows, and it is no different from the meat you can buy on the market." ”

Lars Gul El was silent for a long time, but after all, he maintained his reserve as a villain, forcibly resisted the desire to regurgitate, and picked up the knife and fork.

The steak was still delicious, and the Assassin Leader turned pale, doing his best not to vomit out of fear and disgust.

The young man in the white coat in front of him was deviant but rational and calm, gentle and elegant but crazy and evil, just like the god who looked down on all living beings, and the depths of his eyes were full of extreme indifference.

Worldly morality has no binding force on the detached.

The leader of the Assassins considered himself a wicked man, but what was he in front of the white coat? Terrorist activities such as creating fear through bombing attacks, subverting political regimes in several regions, and triggering international contradictions are simply impossible to put on the table in the face of this wall of flesh.

It was only at this moment that he sighed from the bottom of his heart, and when he met this great god, he lost unjustly.

"Meat means high-quality protein, fatty acids, triglycerides, cholesterol, calories, inorganic salts, vitamins, and ......"

Under the pale light of inorganic matter, Li Ang raised a hand and rubbed his index finger and thumb together, "Money." ”

The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit.

Hearing this, Lars Gul El secretly took a breath - it seems that this white coat also has a normal human side.

"The global live cattle herd is close to one billion, concentrated in India, Brazil, China, the United States, the European Union, Argentina, Australia and other countries.

Of course, the number of live cattle does not mean beef production, the United States, which combines industry and agriculture, contributes 18.58% of the world's live cattle production with 9.6% of the world's live cattle inventory, followed by Brazil, the European Union and China, and the third brother is not high in slaughtered beef production due to religious reasons, ranking fifth. ”

Leon got up and walked towards the second floor, but Lars Gul Eyre, who had not yet recovered from his nausea, hesitated for a moment, put down his fork, and followed in the former's footsteps.

The two walked up to the second floor and strolled through the walls of flesh.

Li Ang walked forward with his hands in his hands, and from time to time walked outside the glassware where the meat wall was placed, carefully observing the growth of the meat wall.

"The reason why U.S. beef is cheap is because its modern beef cattle industry chain is extremely well-developed, and each link develops independently, and at the same time, it has a division of labor and cooperation. The distribution of the commercial calf production system represented by grass-fed cattle and the production system of young shelf cattle is relatively scattered, so it is not mentioned here.

As for grain-fed cattle, that is, beef cattle in the fattening areas of the corn belt of the central and southern plains of the United States, their intensive, large-scale, and regionalized breeding systems are quite mature, with low-cost irrigated corn, liquid supplemental feed, improved hormones and antibiotics from generation to generation, high-quality embryo promotion, greenhouse and disease control..... It is the coordinated and self-contained details that have created the world's largest beef export. ”

Lars Gul El pursed his lips, claiming that he had never been interested in knowing these things, so he had to pretend with a straight face, "I can understand, you can continue".

Ignoring the Assassin leader, Leon took out the form from the pocket of his white coat and took out a pen and a phoenix, writing lines of calculation formulas.

According to the data of the United States Department of Agriculture, the terminal retail price fluctuates in the range of about 5.6-6.3 US dollars / pound, which translates to roughly 42.6-47.9 yuan / catty, while the export price including 13% tariffs fluctuates around 7.345 US dollars / kg, which translates to roughly 50.68 yuan / catty."

Lars Gul Eyre's heart moved, he was not a fool, and with a little calculation, he could calculate the value of the interests behind it.

"This seems to be a considerable price difference, partly because of tariffs, and partly because the U.S. exports mostly high-grade whole beef, while a large portion of the beef for national consumption is imported from abroad — and in this situation, the U.S. still consumes more than 10 million tons of beef a year, with 100,000 head of cattle waiting to be slaughtered every 24 hours."

Lars Gul Al couldn't help but exclaim: "If the terminal retail price of 3.2 US dollars per kilogram is calculated, 10 million tons of beef is equivalent to 32 billion US dollars!" And that's just the consumption of the United States alone in a year! If you can completely replace human conventional meat products with hydroponic meat, it will be a matter of minutes to become the richest man in the world! ”

Unbeknownst to him, the Assassin leader was in a hurry, since beef could be made in this way, what about pork, which was consumed even more? What about chicken, lamb, and fish?

Even the League of Assassins, known as one of the rulers of Japan, had never seen such astronomical wealth.....

Ars Gul Al couldn't help but feel dizzy, his eyes silently changed as he looked at the wall of flesh, he forced himself to calm down, and said to Leon in a deep voice: "But things can't go so smoothly, first you have to face the crazy attacks of other meat manufacturing peers. ”

Li Ang nodded and said indifferently: "Indeed, the technology of hydroponic meat, with the support of the modern industrial system, will burst out with crazy production capacity, destroying the original old system with a devastating attitude. ”

This is no more than hybrid rice, hydroponic meat is too big to be solved by a private group, which requires at least the support of the industrial and agricultural heritage of an entire superpower.

The leader of the assassins frowned and said, "Not only that, but the huge meat manufacturing industry in the United States involves countless people's jobs, and once this technology is launched, I don't know how many companies are on the verge of bankruptcy, how many civilians have lost their jobs, and how many farmers have been ruined. ”

Li Ang spread his hands and said: "Technology has never been the first driving force for human development, it can only be regarded as a crutch at most - capital is the booster that surrounds the progress of human civilization." It's like Tesla's direct current, alternating current war with Edison. ”

Lars Gul Al nodded: "That's right, those behemoths of the meat manufacturing industry will definitely regard you as a mortal enemy, and will do everything possible to oppress you, and even use some shady means to destroy your factories, companies, and employees." Even the American bureaucrats led by the US Food and Drug Administration will attack you because of the drive of interest groups - you know, agriculture is one of the cornerstones of the United States to stand at the top of the world, and there are countless capital giants standing behind it! ”

"Do you think I'll be afraid?" Li Ang laughed and said, "Once technology appears, it will burn the entire planet like a fire, and this trend is definitely not something that some profit-seeking flies can stop." ”

“... What do you mean? ”

"Hydroponic meat technology is certainly important, but for me, it's just a tool to make money in my spare time," Li Ang shook his white coat and said indifferently: "I don't mind making money in harmony, but if those bloodthirsty flies and insects that follow the interests are too noisy, then shoot them all to death." ”
