"Hehe, in fact, that young man is my young master, he is a magician, and now he has planted a lot of sugar cane in the wheat ear farm, plus he has the technology to make sugar, how about it?"

"Ah, it turns out that he is a magician! No wonder ......" Old Lei Zhe's question just now was cleared, in the folk legend, magicians are omnipotent, just let the sugar cane ripen quickly, it is not a big deal at all.

"Yes, you don't know, those sugar canes are ...... now," Old Willy searched left and right, and then saw the small vat where old Lei Zhe's house received sweet water.

"It's so thick!" said old Willie, pointing to the little vat.

"How is it possible! Sugar cane can grow so thick? How tall is that!?" Old Lei Zhe looked incredulous.

"Haha, it's at least ten meters high, if you don't believe it, go to the wheat ear farm to have a look, it's not far anyway. ”

"More than ten meters high......" Old Lei Zhe was speechless, but when he thought of Flandie's identity as a magician, he was relieved. In his mind, the magician is omnipotent, didn't he see that even the heavy rain could dispel it a few days ago?

"But, however, why did you choose me? I am just a commoner, and no one can command anyone except my two sons, so I am asking for the wrong person to set up a sugar factory. ”

This is what Old Lei Zhe wonders the most, whether it is the Wheat Ear Farm or the magician Flandy himself, it is easy to build a sugar factory, I don't know why I found myself.

"Alas, I also asked my young master, but the young master said, your ancestors have been selling sweet water for generations, and his sugarcane seeds are obtained from you, if the sugar factory is built, your sweet water will not be sold, the young master is kind-hearted, so he asked you to form it, and then if you do a good job, he will also give you dry shares, understand?"

"Ah, that's what happened!" Old Lei Zhe suddenly realized.

It seems that the young master of the Wheat Ear Farm is pitying himself, if he is not interested, it is really like what old Willy said, the sweet water that generations have relied on for a living really can't be sold, after all, the taste of sugar has been tasted just now, and it is much sweeter than sweet water.

"But I can't do anything!" Old Lei Zhe had already moved his mind, but he was just a civilian, where could he have the ability to do such a big thing.

"Since the young master has chosen you, of course he will help you, it doesn't matter if you don't, there is also the Wheat Ear Farm, our Wheat Ear Farm will supply you with sugarcane, you just need to find a place, use these gold coins to buy the land, and then recruit some workers, won't the sugar factory be opened!"

Old Willie persuaded bitterly, there was no way, who asked Flandy to name this old Lei Zhe to do this.

"It's so simple?" Old Lei Zhe was a little incredulous.

"Of course, the young master said, the Imperial Academy of Sciences knows, right? It's the big boss behind the textile factory, my young master is the president of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and he has already asked the people of the Academy of Sciences to start making some presses and the like, you just have to pick it up when the time comes, anyway, everything is arranged." ”

"Ah, do you still have to deal with the old men of the Academy of Sciences?" Old Lei Zhe flinched a little.

"Didn't you hear clearly? The president of the Imperial Academy of Sciences is my young master! As long as you agree, you can be regarded as my young master's subordinates, and you are on an equal footing with those people, what are you afraid of?"

Old Willie was a little bitter, although he didn't know what Flandie's status was in the Oskaia Empire, but he only had to look at the fact that he often brought His Majesty the Emperor to the Wheat Ears Farm.

"I ...... Let me think again...... Think about it again......" Old Lei Zhe was still a little weak-hearted and said vaguely.

"Hey, Lei Zhe, what else do you want to think! Do you have to wait for someone else to open a sugar factory, and then force your family to have no income at all, and starve to death before you regret it?"

Old Willie was anxious and yelled at old Lei Zhe, if you don't seize such a good opportunity, I don't know how stupid this old man is.

"Ahh

So he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, closed his eyes and said simply: "Done! I'll do it!"

Old Willie finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had agreed, and the task given to him by the young master had not failed.

Not only Old Willy, but even Old Lei Zhe's wife, two sons and daughter-in-law, they were overjoyed when they heard that Old Lei Zhe had agreed, they were really frightened by what Old Willy just said, if Old Lei Zhe didn't agree, he might really be hungry.

......

The last time Flandi sent his disciple Pei Di home, he had stopped by to find old Lei Zhe once, of course, he didn't know what old Lei Zhe's name was until now.

Later, because there were many things, he directly handed over this task to Old Willy, and as soon as Old Weili heard that it was an old man who sold sweet water, he immediately knew who it was.

The sugar industry is a very influential industry, and the profits are not low, so many sugar factories in the previous life have lived very well, you know how much profit margin is.

And now that sugar has just appeared on the continent of Oskaia, it is still the only business, and the gold coins that can be earned can be imagined.

It's not that Flandy covets these gold coins, but mainly because he wants to develop sugar, a thing that can bring sweetness to people, so that ordinary people can also taste the feeling of sweetness.

After so many days of breeding, sugarcane has been iterated ten times, and the indicators have basically reached its upper limit, and no matter how much it is watered with plant-based magic essentia, it will not be greatly improved, so it is already possible to start large-scale planting.

Of course, the price of sugarcane is still very expensive, mainly because the amount is too small, don't look at the growth so fast, it is all supported by the plant-based magic essentia.

However, the sugar factory was ready to be built, and Flandy was ready to let the Wheat Ear Farm, that is, the Melward family of his grandfather's family, cooperate with the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and the Wheat Ear Farm would produce the raw materials, that is, sugar cane, and the Imperial Academy of Sciences would produce the juicers, dryers, and other machines.

As for asking old Lei Zhe to manage it, this is something that has been thought of a long time ago, when he bought sugar cane twigs from old Lei Zhe, he would rather ask for ten gold coins than a thousand, ten thousand gold coins, so Flandi thinks that he knows how to advance and retreat, and should be able to manage the sugar mill well.

If you don't have the ability, you can't be afraid, you can learn, but if the essence of human beings is broken, that's the worst thing, and you can't reverse it if you want to.

Old Lei Zhe is almost sixty years old, and sixty years old can already be called a young man in the Oskaia continent, but because of his long-term activities, his health is not bad.

Being old also has the advantage of being old, at least you know more people, near the south of the imperial capital, when it comes to the old Lei Zhe who sells sweet water, almost everyone knows it.

Many people grew up drinking the sweet water of Lao Lei Zhe, and when they learned that Lao Lei Zhe was going to start a factory, their first reaction was whether he had taken some shit luck, where did he get the gold coins to start a factory?

However, when he learned that he had received the support of the Wheat Ear Farm, out of trust in the locals, many civilians came to sign up and prepare to find a job with him.

The matter of land is very easy to solve, there are few people near the imperial capital, and there is a lot of uncultivated land in Xiaqu Village, where Lao Lei Zhe is located.

But the village official is also a native of Xiaqu Village, and he is still the younger generation of the old Lei Zhe, of course, it is smooth sailing to buy land.

Within three days, the land for the sugar factory had been bought, and more than 100 workers had been recruited, several dozen of whom were ordinary villagers in Xiaqu Village.

With 3,000 gold coins as start-up capital, these things are nothing, the land is there, the people are there, but what should I do next? Old Lei Zhe began to have a headache.

Before he could consult with old Willie, on the morning of the third day, a young man in a wizard's robe knocked on the door of his courtyard.

"Excuse me, is this old Reizhe's home?" the young magician spoke politely, not at all looking down on them because they were commoners.

It was the eldest son of the old Lei Zhe who opened the door, and when he opened the door and found that there was a magician standing in front of the door, he was so frightened that he couldn't say anything.

"Uh, ah, yes, this is Old Lei Zhe's home, may I ask the Venerable Magician, do you have anything to do?" said the eldest son of Old Lei Zhe.

"Hehe, don't be nervous, this big brother, my name is Tom, I was appointed by Flandy to help old Lei Zhe prepare for the establishment of a sugar factory, may I ask, who are you?"

When Old Willy came to the house to invite Abba three days ago, Flandi's name was mentioned more than once, which made the eldest son remember it deeply, and when he heard that Flandy sent him to help, he hurriedly said: "Ah, Old Lei Zhe is my Dad, he just got up, I will call him immediately!"

After saying that, he threw down Tom who was in front of the door, and ran back to the house to call Old Lezhe.

Tom had no choice, he was not invited to enter, so he had to wait at the door.

Fortunately, soon old Lei Zhe scolded his son for not being polite, and walked out of the house.

"Magician, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this son of mine is a little stunned, don't you want to be like him, please come into the house. ”

Old Leezer invited Tom into the house and asked his eldest son to pour a bowl of sweet water, and then he and Tom began to talk in detail.

Tom first asked him what he had prepared, and old Leezer told him everything he had done in the past three days, and then began to ask Tom what he needed to do next.

"Well, it's pretty much the same as Brandy guessed, but I can't help you with anything, just take you to meet some people, and you'll have to deal with them a lot in the future. ”
