Just one night, a large area of lush cotton seedlings had emerged from the ground, bathed vigorously in the drizzle of autumn rain, absorbing rich water, and swaying in the breeze.
The attribute of aesthetics is something that has never appeared on other crops. At present, I have only seen it on floors, wall decorations, statues and crafts. After the scale was formed, this large cotton field in the pasture has indeed brought me the beauty that I could enjoy without being superior.
Maybe... cotton is also a flower?
"Boss Marcus, why do you have to plant so much cotton?" Gray rubbed his eyes and admired the beautiful scenery, as if he was a little dissatisfied with my behavior of skipping classes.
"Of course, farming is for the purpose of producing." I was careless.
"Then why is cotton?" Gray continued to ask. Compared with continuous cotton planting, the grain crops in a corner were indeed a bit miserable.
I looked at the drizzle falling and turned to ask him, "Tell me, why do people feel panic when the ore town encounters shortage of supplies?"
Gray, who has been studying sleepless all night, has not been slow to learn.
"Mainly because of the small staff and small area, products that can be produced by themselves are quite scarce. People can't buy anything they want, so they are naturally dissatisfied."
I waved my hand and said, "No, think about it again. When you were the chief of the Shanshu clan, why did the primitive tribes on such a remote planet lack anything?"
Gray thought about it again and smiled bitterly: "Boss, this is what you don't know. Although the Shanshu clan looks okay, in fact, there is a serious lack of food, medicine, and clothing, and only non-gunpowder weapons are sufficient. So when they lack things, they will go down the mountain to grab it..."
I slapped the door frame and said, "That's it! Think about it again, what's the biggest difference between us and them?"
Gray frowned and hesitated: "Is it a robbery down the mountain? How can we do this..."
Gray was half right.
He had already realized that the core of the development of the Shanshu clan as a local tyrant was to constantly replenish force. Often, newly grown tribe members would be sent out to rob, and even if outsiders were chiefs, it would be irrelevant. The most important thing was this core competitiveness.
Need something? Just grab it.
Although the problems faced similarly, the environment in which the Ore Town is different and the treatment methods are naturally different. They will not form a fleet of Thomas trains just because they rely on their own, and they will not form a fleet of Thomas trains, taking Grandma Elian, Old Sebala, and Muqi out to make money.
The same situation cannot be ignored here, especially when the wealth produced by a place is relatively constant, the profit-seeking nature of capital will play a role, forming a strong economic group to dump goods to extract economic profits from disadvantaged areas.
Especially when the industrial and agricultural scissors gap is formed, this kind of extraction will become naked plunder, and even if it is hesitant to defeat the economic pillars of other regions, he will also obtain absolute monopoly and profits.
Money? Take it to you!
In front of the unscrupulous traders who started with business in the Federation, the numerous islands like ore towns hanging overseas will never be able to stop their effective economic defense system and resist such suppression.
After a long time, even if there are people in the town who continue to produce goods like Sebala and Boss Dick, they will not be able to achieve large-scale operations and will eventually disappear without successors. This irregular offshore trade blockade is likely to be a policy that will knock on and hide opponents and promote economic depression.
After this market has been deformed for a long time, someone should make some changes.
"Gray, don't underestimate these cottons."
My thoughts were so great that I finally turned into a sentence, "Sometimes, sheep can eat people..."
The little lamb huddled in the corner walked out tremblingly and let out a faint "bleat" at the door.
Grey laughed: "How can sheep eat people?"
I picked up the lamb that was getting fatter and fatter as I ate, staring at its moist and weak eyes, "Of course it is not the sheep that eats people, but the hearts of the people. The federal policy this time came suddenly, but it would never be a sudden idea. There must be a detailed follow-up plan."
Gray thought: "So...you guessed the plan?"
"I've already found Boss Dart to find out the scariest supplies recently."
I walked slowly with the lamb in my arms, "These things cannot be problematic on the production side. They must have been hoarded and prepared to be released as ammunition. If we want to fight back, we must engage in the so-called commercial war. The real commercial war can be to knock on the opponent's head with a hammer, or the plan to make money is completely lost..."
Gray became more and more confused as he listened, so he simply gave up thinking: "I don't understand very much, but what you said should make sense, I'll listen to you. What should we do next? Whose head is knocking on?"
I threw a 1420-page book into his hands.
"I can't stop the street lights, how can I knock my head be useful? Hurry up and study. I have said so much, and you should understand the principle of studying for the rise of the ranch!"
Gray cried and said, "Boss, don't you need to read it?"
I pointed to the two little beans running over with an umbrella in the distance, "I also want to teach the sun at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, so you can just hold on first."
…………
"Teacher Marcus, why did we change our desks?"
The little boy sat in his seat strangely, turned his head to look at the plum that was particularly far away.
Old Man Muqi's granddaughter is particularly well-behaved: "But this table is more comfortable than before!"
Of course it feels comfortable for the children.
These are two wooden basic research tables I temporarily built, with high-standard comfortable dining chairs, which are not on the same level as the desk stool I used to piece together.
"Teacher, what class are you taking today?"
May raised his hand and began to inquire curiously, "Is Brother Grey here to attend classes?"
Gray covered his ears tightly on the side, and quickly read another line of books and muttered words, as if he was afraid that the line of words would be lost from the paper.
I shook my head and said, "Grey is a correspondence university, which is different from the elementary school you are studying in. Today we will take a plant class to teach you how to identify and plant commonly used trees in the ecosystem."
"Wow! This class sounds very interesting!"
"Of course, if you don't understand, you can ask questions casually."
After saying that, I placed a device that was crooked like a mutton demon tied up in large numbers between two strengthening desks.
"This is today's 'teaching multimedia', let's start the class."
[Okay, Mr. Marcus. Now I will start to explain the "Basic Tree Planting Course", which mainly includes horn trees, giant cactus, poplars, pine trees, maple trees, cypress trees, teak trees and other species...]
"Oh! So awesome!"
When You and Mei heard the sound from the broken iron, they could still answer my questions, and immediately puffed up their hands with their little hands!
Well, this is just a normal teaching multimedia, and it is definitely not something strange. Although our Yucai Wenwu Primary School in Mining Town is broken, we still cannot lose to the city in terms of teaching equipment.
I am simply a genius. I can dig out the functions of Sharon Shiraishi and directly find a well-known general teacher and writing dictionary for my two children!
If the little Doudings could learn the things in its database, the two children would be the top students in the prodigy class, and they could dig Bitcoin with a pen. After graduation, they would have a promising future as personal graphics cards. At least they would be better than being the boss of Liu Bei, Lu Bu's adoptive father, the troll who was against Zhuge Liang, and the governor of the Eastern Wu navy.
My ability to adapt to this kind of adaptability is a bit of a loss compared to Guan Zhong and Leyi. At least it is a level of being too popular... I am ready to hook up. How can I get there in Weishui?
"Marcus, you are indeed here!"
A pleasant voice sounded, and with light steps, Lin had already walked to the warehouse door with an umbrella.
I looked at Lin in a hurry, holding a basket in her hand, and hurriedly said, "What's wrong? Are you picking mushrooms up the mountain? Remember not to pick red mushrooms with white spots, as that thing will become bigger after eating..."
Lin glanced at me and took out the amazing cheesecake and cookies from the basket covered with waterproof paper, as well as a large pot of pineapple juice.
"This is my own snack. I saw that you didn't come for breakfast, so I brought it there."
You and Mei ran down to strengthen the desk and greeted Lin one after another.
"Wow, you two are here too! Come and eat!"
Lin skillfully distributed the snacks, and then said to me in a tactful tone, "Marcus, you'd better not come to the tavern these two days. I'll take you with whatever you need. Dad seemed very angry..."
I just took a bite of the cake and was stunned.
I was careless and stole the antenna and lost my long-term meal ticket. Fortunately, I was a little angel, which is really lucky...
It's okay, bear it anymore.
When the matter is done, Boss Dart will not be angry; or when the matter is over, Boss Dart will forget about this?
"Lin, has Jay gone to find you?"
The little girl was sent to Kalian's house by me last night, and they always had secret topics to talk about.
"It's been here early in the morning, but after sitting for a while, I couldn't wait for you, so I went to the beach with Karen. She seemed to have never seen the sea."
After saying that, Lin asked in confusion: "I have obviously taken a boat to the ore town, why have I never seen the sea?"
By chance, she really didn't come by boat. The Jays' occurrence is reasonable except for the outrageous things, but if you think about it carefully, you will find that there is no reasonable thing about this.
But no matter how outrageous it is, it is more reasonable than the way I was airdropped?
To be continued...
