Chapter 313 Planting Grain in the Desert
"Food? This is the best thing. Haven't you seen that there is a shortage of food everywhere, but how do I develop? Can you have magic, and I can produce food with just a flick of my hand? That seems impossible, besides, it seems The food shortage in the world is not very big now, so what profit margins can I have?" I was in ecstasy just now, and suddenly thought that the grain in the granary was full, and now farmers are not willing to grow grain, so I can Relying on this to make a lot of money is not as good as those other projects he just mentioned. Natural gas and coal are much better than this.
In fact, Li Cong doesn't understand the international food issue at all. He is in China. There is basically no food problem in China. Now the international food price has risen by more than 100%. China's food price is equivalent to the income of the people. That said, it's still pretty insignificant.
"My husband, if you want to master this world, you must complete this task. First of all, my technology is absolutely in place. You may not know that the average yield of wheat per mu is only four. About one hundred and fifty kilograms, but my land can definitely reach 1,000 kilograms per mu. This is not the nonsense of your Chinese* period. The wheat is all grains from the top to the ground, and there will be no defects. This is First, the most important thing is second, my wheat does not need to be grown on arable land, but lives in the desert, and has a very strong ability to survive. When you said that you want to master the world, sir, I started to make arrangements for you. Now you can apply for contracting the desert, and it is best to be in the Taklimakan Desert in China.” Tek saw that Li Cong could no longer accept it. Although he brought the most advanced technology to Li Cong every time, I am afraid this time it is the most Unacceptable.
How many years and when have you seen plants in the desert? They are all made of cactus. Except for that thing, the desert will not be a little green. Now it is good, and there are thousands of catties of wheat per mu. Of course, I have heard of the Taklamakan Desert. If you are a Chinese, you don’t know it. Then But it’s really penny-pinching, can we start our hegemony there? Using grain is a good trick. In ancient times, the status of merchants was very low, and only grain merchants and salt merchants were able to get involved with high-ranking officials. But how can they make themselves stand in the grain market.
"Can you explain it to me more clearly? Now I'm dizzy and dizzy. If I don't understand, I might as well not sleep tonight." Li Cong is almost standing on Tek's body now, such a computer synthesized The image of is really annoying, I really want to slap him when he speaks hesitantly.
"Haha, sir, I know you will have such a reaction when you hear it. There are all kinds of seeds on our planet, which can adapt to all kinds of environments on your earth. To put it bluntly, if conditions permit We can also grow food directly on the sea, but we haven’t reached that point yet, sir, I think you should sit down and listen to me slowly, the time will not be short.” Tai Ke is very happy that he has such a great ability. No one chatted with me when I came out by myself, and if I finally found an opportunity, I had to show it off.
In fact, this matter is very simple. With high technology and many days of environmental transformation, the Taklimakan Desert has actually become a very important place. If possible, its production capacity must definitely exceed the world's most important grain-producing areas. .
The wheat seeds of aliens are very different from those on the earth. They still absorb the most extensive energy source to change themselves, that is sunlight, as long as there is sufficient sunshine, they can grow, which completely subverts the theory of the earth people. Of course, a little water The root system is also necessary, but its root system is tens of meters long, almost catching up with a big tree, and it doesn't need much water, it can be fully expanded. Tektronix has made the Taklamakan area into a place with stable air pressure. In such an area, there will be no natural disasters, and it can be said that the weather will be smooth every year.
The entire desert covers more than 300,000 square kilometers, and the area that has been transformed now can be about 150,000 square kilometers.
That is more than 200 million mu. If it is produced in large quantities, 200 million tons of wheat can be produced every year, which accounts for 40% of the world's wheat production. Now the international price of wheat has risen to 1,100 yuan per year. Tons, when Li Cong sells 810 tons, the price will be lowered immediately, and the taste and storage of alien varieties are much, much better than those on earth now, and there will definitely be strong competitive.
"Sir, this project may only earn you hundreds of billions of yuan in profits every year, but its prospects are very broad. At the beginning, your price must come down, and farmers all over the world may not pay for it because of you." If you go to farm, you may switch to other crops, and your only plant is wheat. When you can control 80% of the world's main food production, who else in the world can challenge you? But The biggest problem of this project is the transportation problem. It is necessary to build railways and roads in the desert, and it is the special railway of our energy group, otherwise it will definitely not meet our needs." Tektronix said with joy, and Li Cong also listened This project really does not have a big impact on my own money, but it is really hard to say about the future benefits, but it will be miserable for the billions of farmers around the world. If there are too many, they will stop farming, and I am afraid that the employment problem will be even more difficult.
But those things don’t matter to us, they are left to the governments of various countries to solve, as long as we don’t sell our food in China, there are not many food shortages in the Middle East and Africa, Li Cong feels relieved when he thinks of this up.
"Tek, it seems that there is not much shortage of food in the world now. When my base is established, can you help me with some natural disasters? That would be better." Li Cong's heart is not yet Generally bad, such tricks can be imagined.
"Sir, I'm afraid this is not very good. We are already slowly grabbing other people's jobs, so let's not do such wicked things. I think that as long as we let the United States not produce food, the whole world will starve Yes." Teck's suggestion is very good, Americans are rich, and they can live with a loss.
"Okay, you go ahead and prepare. Give me a complete plan. I will immediately talk to the country about contracting the desert and building the railway. When the budget comes out, I will do it immediately. Now I am desperate for rights. It's getting stronger and stronger. Now there are more powerful and rich people in this world than me. The number one person in the world can't be so oppressed. I want to be the master of this world. The order of this world should be controlled by me It can only be made by me." Tai Ke knew Li Cong's lofty ideals, so he better stop watching this Hitler-like giant talking nonsense here, and hurry up to write a plan.
