Looking at this year's wheat production in his hands, Bodhidharma felt extremely cold.
Only 73.52 million tons of wheat were produced this year, which is only about 70% of previous years.
He put down the report in his hand, and a look of solemnity appeared on his face: "You have all seen that our food gap is still widening."
The person in charge of the Ministry of Agriculture looked embarrassed, but he quickly dismissed the blame: "We have no choice but to restrict the replanting of wheat and rice fields or ban the export of agricultural products."
Others also make excuses for themselves.
In short, it is just one sentence: I have worked very hard, it is all the fault of other departments, and as for ways to change the status quo, no one dares to suggest wise people.
Listening to these guys shirking responsibility, Bodhidharma was also furious. If it weren't for the fact that behind these guys were spokespersons for various forces in Tianzhu, he would have had the idea of going on a killing spree.
In fact, Bodhidharma doesn't know why these guys behave like this. The reason is profit.
The large farmers found that if they followed the rules of Homo sapiens, they would get a lot of money.
As the crowd dispersed, Bodhidharma was alone and sad in the empty office.
Looking at these bastards who were holding back, Bodhidharma suppressed his anger: "You all write me a solution. I want to see a useful solution! Do you understand?"
Growing food? Don’t even think about it.
Inside a high-security office in an underground bunker.
…
To the west is the ancient enemy Xiba, and to the north, east and south are the spheres of influence of Homo sapiens.
The cash crops produced by farmers have to go through another hand, and grain retail also has to go through another hand, which contains huge benefits.
In order to deal with the threat from Homo sapiens, Black Ship has reorganized its branches in some areas.
They learned the methods of Homo sapiens. These large farmers knew that Homo sapiens wanted to control Tianzhu's grain. They also imitated this and forced farmers to switch to cash crops. They also used their cooperative relationship with Homo sapiens to import cheap and high-quality grain for sale.
.
Blowing across the South Asian subcontinent.
Their family is the beneficiary of agricultural trade and can earn at least several million gold dollars in profit every year. They want them to let go unless the sun comes out from the west.
Don't look at it. America has been trying to encourage Tianzhu and Homo sapiens to fight to the death.
James read the translation and said cautiously: "Dharma wants to drive away wolves and swallow tigers. Are we going to end up there?"
Including Judd, who is in charge of the Department of Agriculture.
West Asia, Oman.
Southwest monsoon in the Ceylon Ocean.
These profit makers know very well that food is their weapon against the Bodhidharma lineage.
Bodhidharma knew exactly this, so he had no way to deal with these large farmers.
Solution? No problem. When we go back and slowly check the information and figure out how to solve it, it will take a hundred million hours.
Originally, the power of each country was very strong. Now, under the deliberate guidance of Homo sapiens, the power of each country has become more united, and they are basically in a state of listening to the instructions but not the propaganda.
And as time goes by, large farmers in towns and cities and comprador industrial and commercial owners in cities have begun to collude.
Special Governor Hall took the decoded translation. After reading it once, his face became uncertain. He handed the translation to his assistant James on the side.
Many of the families behind these large farmers are Brahmins and Kshatriyas. With the combined power of all of them, not even Bodhidharma can shake them.
In fact, the headquarters of West Asia Black Ship is also in Haluf Port.
Farmers can earn dozens of gold yuan in profit by planting one acre of cash crops, but they may not even earn a few yuan in profit by planting one acre of grain.
Others were also smiling.
"I understand!" Everyone said in unison.
Thinking of this, Bodhidharma took out the list of heads of various departments and circled the pro-American and pro-intelligence factions among them. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You forced me to do this."
But America is only willing to support arms, and is very stingy about other things.
In this way, they can monopolize grain and cash crops, thereby enabling stable harvesting, and can also coerce farmers to resist Delhi's orders.
Making them give up these benefits? This is more difficult than killing them.
Not only do they not grow food themselves, they also use their influence in towns and villages to ask local farmers to do the same.
"Write casually, write carefully." Judd spread his hands with a smile.
As the first fleet to be completely captured in the history of the US military, the Fifth Fleet has become a shame and stain for the US military. Unless they defeat Homo sapiens one day, they will only carry this shame forever.
When the ministers left the office, many of them had playful smiles on their faces and did not take Bodhidharma's words to heart at all.
The only exit is Ceylon Yangahai in the southwest.
Including the last time that Tamil Nadu sold its power industry to Homo sapiens, it can be seen that the penetration depth of Homo sapiens in India has reached an intricate level.
America's fifth fleet, which has moved its main base here, has improved its overall strength a lot compared to a year ago.
Therefore, many farmers have switched to planting cash crops, and some areas have even specialized in growing one kind of cash crop.
This situation is also what large farmers want to see.
The reason is naturally very simple, because they discovered the huge benefits and ways to control the place.
But towards the southwest, there is basically no possibility of expansion. The relationship between the West Asian countries and Tianzhu is average. The American Fifth Fleet entrenched in the Persian Gulf does not allow other forces to extend their hands.
"Minister, how should we write this solution?"
He immediately called his confidants and gave some secret instructions.
"Report, South Asia Urgent Report."
A storm is coming.
If Bodhidharma now issued an order mandating that all places must grow food, then he might one day have a big idea.
Therefore, they desperately reduce the scale of grain planting and reduce local grain reserves. At the same time, they use high-yield cash crops and low-priced grains to attract farmers to switch crops.
However, facing the Homo sapiens navy that was crazy about its troops, the U.S. Fifth Fleet still felt a lot of pressure. After all, the shadow of the last disastrous defeat still hung over the Fifth Fleet.
And the price of grain is very cheap, so why not plant cash crops instead, and then use the cash crops to make money and then buy grain and food?
Farmers don't care about food security, they just want to make more money and improve their living standards.
Because Tianzhu is an important chess piece to contain Homo sapiens, once Tianzhu is devoured by Homo sapiens, the consequences will be very serious.
Tianzhu’s external environment at this time is not optimistic.
Among them, the level of the black ships in West Asia was raised by half a level, and a special governor was sent from the headquarters to take charge of the black ships in Central Asia and South Asia.
Alone in the office, he looked at the world map on the side wall.
Haruf Port.
Hall didn't know Bodhidharma's thoughts, but he knew what the other party was thinking, but Black Ship had no choice but to jump at this time.
"The meeting is dismissed."
Originally, the US Fifth Fleet was facing enemies from both sides in the Persian Gulf, and the attitude of the oil tyrants in West Asia had also become very unstable.
If Tianzhu is controlled by Homo sapiens again, the U.S. military will be attacked on three sides in West Asia, completely losing its buffer zone for strategic movement, and may even be directly squeezed out of West Asia.
Hall took a deep breath and then ordered: "Let the black ships in South Asia be more vigilant. Bodhidharma's confidentiality capabilities will definitely not be hidden from Homo sapiens for long. I need to communicate with the headquarters."
"OK." James nodded.
