What most of them pursue is power, so they conduct various experiments, even human experiments.
They are the smartest people in the world and the ones with the most power.
If they put a little more emphasis on pursuing power and leading changes in the world, then it is not impossible that chemical fertilizers, hybrid wheat, or even wheat that can produce two thousand kilograms of grain per mu will appear.
This is a fantasy world, not the Earth of a previous life.
Luther can't change the wizards' pursuit of power, but he can use money to allow them to invest a little bit of their ingenuity into world construction.
Wheat research base.
Fertilizer research base.
Luther has made preparations, and the city hall has allocated funds. According to the terrible abilities of the wizards, these two things may be produced this year and will be in the hands of farmers next year.
Chemical fertilizers may not be available for a while, but as long as high-yielding wheat seeds are researched, Luther can ensure that every farmer can use them.
Food will be even less valuable.
Agricultural personnel will be at a horribly low level. Young people will become industrial personnel and workers. Prussia in the future will definitely 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 coming to an end?
Just like what this Mr. Master said, a business that relies on land will definitely be the least profitable business.
"Among the eight grain merchants among us, seven may have to change careers." The grain merchants thought to themselves, feeling a little sad.
Because most of them have been engaged in the grain business since their ancestors. By their generation, they have become extinct.
"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 do not purchase grain. Let the big farmers sell their fields, sell their 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 a little depressed suddenly became energetic. Yes, the Mr. Dominator in front of them is the most successful businessman in the White Eagle Territory.
As long as everyone follows him, everyone will make a lot of money.
The seven major families, the Morgan family, Miss Alice, etc., all of them are now prominent figures in the White Eagle Territory.
If they can get on the ship, it would be a good thing to lose the grain business.
"Please give me some advice." Mr. Hiltu's attitude was more humble than before, and he bent down and said to Luther.
"Food production will be high in the future, but the population cannot grow enough to digest so much grain at once. You will switch to developing animal husbandry, purchase grain to make feed, and raise more cattle and sheep. As you know, my free education will suddenly make Baidu
There are 720,000 more quasi-knights in the Eagle Territory, and the number of knights in the White Eagle Territory will further increase in the future. As for the quasi-knights, the knights need a lot of meat to absorb nutrients. Animal husbandry is a very good way out."
Luther said with a smile.
The grain merchants immediately understood.
"Yes, if there is demand, you will make money, and you can do business. The horror of high food yields is that people will not be able to eat it. If they can't eat it, the price of food will fall off a cliff. And as the number of knights increases, the demand for meat will increase.
If we do the livestock business, we can make a fortune. This is a very good business."
"Thank you for your advice. We will vigorously recruit and train cowboys and enter the animal husbandry industry." Mr. Hiltu stood up excitedly and bowed to Luther.
Other grain merchants also stood up one after another.
"Okay, then according to the plan you don't buy grain. After the big landowners 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, and farmers can
We can’t go bankrupt. Low prices will hurt farmers.”
Luther stood up and said.
This was Luther's last step. He wiped out all the wool from the big landowners who owned serfs, but in the end he had to protect the interests of the farmers.
It's not just that.
After the collapse of food prices, the Pompeii family stepped in to stabilize food prices.
The farmers are also grateful for the white eagle coat of arms.
Kill multiple birds with one stone.
Luther and Pompeii were always profiteers.
Turning your hands makes clouds, turning your hands makes rain.
The general direction of the entire White Eagle Territory is always under Luther's control. Therefore, casual small profits are not important at all. With this power, it is very easy to make money.
Besides, Luther really didn't like worldly 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 running the territory out of obsession. He wants to make Pompeii more prosperous and fill most people with laughter and joy.
Also, Luther needed military power.
If we enter the era of universal knights, population will represent military strength.
The conversation ended here, Luther was respectfully sent out of the villa by the grain merchants, got into the carriage with Lelouch, and returned to the city hall.
The grain merchants stopped for a long time, waiting until the carriage engraved with the "White Eagle Coat of Arms" disappeared from sight, then turned around and entered the villa together.
"Mr. Governor White Eagle really amazes me." After returning to the living room, Mr. Hiltu sat on the main seat, stretched out his hand and touched his forehead, and a thin layer of sweat broke out.
You must know that Mr. Hiltu has been taking potions since he was a child, and he is also a person with the body of a knight. He is immune to cold and heat, but now he is sweating, which shows that he is under great pressure.
"The courage is amazing, and the changes make me dizzy. Give this gentleman another ten years, the White Eagle Territory will definitely be more prosperous than the Libyan Countdom, and the White Eagle Crest will become one of the only three families in Orange."
A grain merchant nodded sympathetically, and then said to the maid beside him: "Bring me a bottle of wine."
"Yes, sir." The maid bowed and went down to get the wine.
"Bring a few more bottles," Mr. Hilto said quickly. Soon after, the maid came up with five bottles of wine and filled them for the gentlemen.
Mr. Hiltu took a sip of wine and calmed down his shock. Then he felt much smoother and said: "Since Mr. Governor has intervened in the price of grain, we can just follow the route he set. We need to discuss and purchase
It’s about acquiring land, hiring workers, and developing animal husbandry.”
"This matter can be easily solved. With Mr. Governor taking action, those big farmers will definitely be eager to sell their farmland. We can just take it over and turn it into pasture."
A grain merchant said with a smile.
"That makes sense."
"Mr. Governor, he even opened the road for us. Let's drink to Mr. Governor." Mr. Hiltu raised his glass and said.
The grain merchants took a sip of wine and their faces glowed red.
Follow the governor and you will have food to eat.
