The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 354 The General Trend

Wizards are a magical profession.

Most of them pursue power, so they conduct various experiments, even human experiments.

They are the smartest people in the world, the ones who master power.

If they put their pursuit of power into leading world change, then fertilizers, hybrid wheat, and even wheat with a yield of 2,000 kilograms per mu would not be impossible.

This is a fantasy world, not the earth of the previous life.

Luther cannot change the wizards' pursuit of power, but he can use money to let them invest their intelligence and wisdom in world construction.

Wheat research base.

Fertilizer research base.

Luther is ready. The city hall will allocate funds. According to the terrible ability of wizards, these two things may be produced this year and reach the hands of farmers next year.

Fertilizers may not be available for a while, but as long as high-yield wheat seeds are researched, Luther can ensure that every farmer uses them.

Food will be even less valuable.

Agricultural personnel will be terribly low. Young people will become industrial personnel and workers. The future Prussia will surely be an industrial empire.

The grain merchants were completely silent. They could no longer describe in words how shocked they were after hearing the news.

Is the grain business going to end?

Just as the master said, the business that relies on land will surely be the least profitable business.

"Among the eight grain merchants, seven of us may have to change careers." The grain merchants thought in their hearts, a little sad.

Because most of them have been engaged in the grain business since their ancestors. When it came to their generation, it was gone.

"It seems that you all understand that there is no future in the grain business, but don't worry. This time you cooperate with me and don't buy grain. Let those big farmers sell their land and serfs and abolish the serfdom system. I will show you a way out."

Everything is under control, Luther said with a smile.

The grain merchants who were originally a little depressed suddenly cheered up. Yes, the master in front of them is the most successful businessman in the White Eagle Territory.

Anyone who followed him made a fortune.

The seven major families, the Morgan family, Miss Alice, etc., all of them are prominent figures in the White Eagle Territory.

If they can get on board, then it would be a good thing to lose the grain business.

"Please give me some advice." Mr. Hillto was more humble than before, and he bent down to Luther.

"In the future, grain will be highly productive, but the population cannot grow to the point where it can digest so much grain. You should switch to animal husbandry, purchase grain for feed, and raise more cattle and sheep. As you know, my free education has brought 720,000 more knights to the White Eagle Territory, and the number of knights in the White Eagle Territory will increase further in the future. And knights need a lot of meat to get nutrition. Animal husbandry is a very good way out."

Luther said with a smile.

The grain merchants immediately understood.

"Yes, if there is demand, there is profit, and business can be done. The high yield of grain is terrifying, and people can't eat it all, which will cause the price of grain to fall precipitously. As the number of knights increases, the demand for meat will increase greatly. We can make a fortune by doing animal husbandry business. This is a very good business."

"Thank you for your advice. We will vigorously recruit cowboys, train cowboys, and enter the animal husbandry industry." Mr. Hill stood up excitedly and bowed to Luther.

Other grain merchants also stood up.

"Okay, then you don't buy grain according to the plan. After those big landlords sell their fields and serfs, the city hall will come forward to protect the grain price. It is tentatively set at 60% of last year. Anyone can go bankrupt, but farmers cannot go bankrupt. Low grain prices hurt farmers."

Luther stood up and said.

This is Luther's last step. He fleeced all the big landlords who owned serfs at once, but in the end he had to protect the interests of farmers.

Not only that.

After the collapse of grain prices, the Pompeii family came forward to stabilize grain prices.

The peasants should also be grateful for the White Eagle emblem.

Killing two birds with one stone.

Luther, Pompeii will always be a profiteer.

He can change the situation at will.

The general direction of the entire White Eagle Territory is always under Luther's control. Therefore, the small profits from the rope are not important at all. With this power, it is easy to make money.

Besides, Luther really looks down on secular business.

After all, no matter how well the territory is managed, it is not as huge as the benefits of an elemental planet.

He is now managing the territory, just an obsession. He wants to make Pompeii more prosperous and make most people full of laughter and joy.

In addition, Luther needs military power.

If we enter the era of universal knights, population represents military power.

The conversation ended here. Luther was respectfully escorted out of the villa by the grain merchants, and got on the carriage with Lelouch and returned to the city hall.

The grain merchants stayed for a long time, and waited until the carriage engraved with the "White Eagle Emblem" disappeared from their sight, then turned around and entered the villa together.

"This Mr. White Eagle Governor really amazed me." Back in the living room, Mr. Hiltu sat in the main seat, reached out and touched his forehead, and a layer of fine sweat appeared.

You know, Mr. Hiltu has been eating magic potions since he was a child, and he is also a knight with a body that is not affected by cold or heat, but now he is sweating, which shows how much pressure he is under.

"The courage is amazing, and the changes are overwhelming. If this gentleman is given another ten years, the White Eagle Territory will definitely be more prosperous than the Libyan Earldom, and the White Eagle emblem will become one of the only three families in Orange."

A grain merchant nodded in agreement, and then he said to the maid beside him: "Bring a bottle of wine."

"Yes, sir." The maid bowed and went down to get the wine.

"Bring a few more bottles." Mr. Hilltu said hurriedly. Not long after, the maid came up with five bottles of wine and filled them for the gentlemen.

Mr. Hilltu took a sip of wine and calmed down. Then it became much smoother, and he said: "Since the Governor has intervened in the price of grain, we should just follow the route he set. We need to discuss the purchase of land, hiring workers, and developing animal husbandry."

"This matter is also easy to solve. With the Governor's move, those big farmers will definitely be eager to sell their farmland. We just need to take over and turn it into a ranch."

A grain merchant said with a smile.

"That makes sense."

"Mr. Governor has even opened up a path for us. Cheers to Mr. Governor." Mr. Hiltu raised his glass and said.

The grain merchants drank the wine and their faces were flushed.

Follow the Governor and you will have food to eat.
