MTL - Weird Wizarding World-Chapter 436 Agricultural Production

  In the study, Noyce sat relaxed behind the brown desk, while Nickler stood opposite him.

   Maybe Colin knocked on the door when he arrived at the study, and stepped in after Noyce said please come in. Nickler knew it was him, so he didn't respond, and didn't even turn around.

  However, Colin didn't know that Nickler was inside, so he was a little surprised to see the latter at this moment.

   "Colin." Noyce greeted with a smile.

   "Your Excellency Noyce." Colin replied.

   "Wait a minute, I'll have another chat with Nickler."

   "Okay..." Colin paused, "Do I need to avoid it?"

"Need not."

  Noyce shook his head, then looked at Nickler and continued: "According to the arrangement of the Supreme Councilor, I need to stay on the front line for most of the next six months.

  This cannot be changed, so I don’t have time to represent the family to participate in the Miracle Meeting. Let’s find another representative. "

   "Okay." Nickler nodded.

  Colin was standing behind him, unable to see his expression clearly, but Nickler's voice sounded calm and calm at the moment, and there was no tense atmosphere between the two of them as he had imagined.

   But think about it. After all, Noyce is the nominal patriarch of the Tate family. Even though Nickler, the patriarch, has disagreements with him, the two are members of the same family after all, and they will not be like enemies.

  Nickler nodded and turned around to leave.

  Colin looked calm and did not intend to have any conversation with him.

   "Mr. Colin, long time no see. I haven't congratulated you on successfully solving the farmland pollution."

  Never thought about it, Nickler turned around to look at him, but a smile appeared on his face, and he said sincerely.

   "It's a fluke." Colin stared at the smiling Nickler, a little surprised by his attitude

   As if thinking of something, he suddenly moved slightly in his heart, using world perception.

  A sense of consumption that is different from magic power and spiritual power came from him.

   "It can be used about twice." Colin thought to himself, feeling the unique sense of consumption of using world perception.

   It can still be used twice, not to say that the world perception can only be used twice in total, but it can be used up to two times in a row.

   A certain energy required to activate world perception has begun to slowly recover after consumption.

   Presumably after fully recovering, he can cast World Perception three more times.

  Thinking in this way, Colin suddenly realized that the world in front of him had changed at some point.

  Misty translucent halos emerged from the bodies of Nickler and Noyce, and certain areas or objects in the study, such as the crystal ball that Noyce was playing with, were also shrouded in a layer of halo.

  The size and color of these halos are different.

  The halo on Noyce's body is soft and warm pale white, the crystal ball in his hand is a touch of gold, while the body of Nickler in front of him...is a slightly blackened gray.

   Needless to say, Colin naturally understood the meanings of these halos.

   "Sure enough... this person's attitude towards me is just a disguise."

  He glanced at Nickler calmly, thinking to himself.

The blackish gray color represents Nickler's hatred for him. Although it has not reached the point of being irreconcilable, he will grit his teeth and curse behind his back, and secretly trip him up when he goes smoothly. the point!

   "Luck has always been a part of strength, Congressman Colin is humble."

   "I still have something to do, so I'll go first. Your Excellency and Noyce will chat slowly."

  Nickler continued to laugh, as if he was not the one who sarcastically advised Colin not to come to Neuss again.

   "Your Excellency, go slowly." Colin laughed. Watching Nickler walk out of the study,

  Although I know that this person's friendliness is just a disguise, and I still hate myself in my heart, but in life and getting along with people, many times it is not all based on what I like in my heart.

   "Have you met the Supreme Councilor?" Noyce asked with a smile.

   "Yes." Colin nodded.

   "When using the blood of the gods, be sure to avoid touching the flesh." Noyce nodded, glanced at the closed study door and said:

   "Nikler was recently punished by the family council for signing a food purchase contract with Istar School of Representative Jonsson that will give priority to the supply of food to the family and family forces in the coming year."

  “Although the set price for purchasing food is not expensive, but now that you have solved the pollution of the farmland, the food supply in the coming year is no longer a problem.

So that contract seems to be very worthless now. The family council ordered Nickler to find a way to cancel it. He is having a headache recently... I am afraid that his perception of you is not as friendly as it seems, so don’t be confused by it . "

  Noyce had a smile on his face, obviously happy to see Nickler deflated.

  As for the loss of the family's interests, the left and right are just some food. If they can't buy it, it will be a problem. But now that the food crisis has been resolved, it doesn't matter if there is a premium on Jonson's side, and the left and right will not be much higher.

   "I understand." Colin nodded, paused and said: "If Lord Noyce needs it, the Tilemie Plain can now provide food for the Taal family."

"I will propose to the family council." Noyce smiled, but instead of delaying, he joked: "I am afraid that many forces will come to discuss food transactions with you during this period, and they will give the Tate family a discount at that time. "

   "Of course." Colin smiled.

   There is friendship when there is coming and going.

  It's just... He suddenly felt a little puzzled, because no force had come to him to discuss grain transactions in recent days.

  However, the Baihuahai celebration has just passed, and the farmland pollution has only just been resolved for a few days, and it may not be over in the future.

   After chatting with Noyce for a few more words, Colin turned around and left, and returned to Golden Wheat.

  …

   "Master, Senator Nickler is here again."

  Jonson's study, the maid's voice came from the crystal on the new desk.

  Jonson sat on the armchair with half-closed eyes, perhaps because of the recent bad things, his complexion obviously looked worse than before.

   "...let him in."

   After a long time, Jonson rubbed his eyebrows before speaking slowly.

  The Tate family... After all, it is still an existence that he cannot provoke.

   Why don't you just be a favor and ask Nickler to cancel the contract, anyway... this operation of reclamation of farmland is doomed to lose money.

   "Good afternoon, Senator Johnson." Nickle walked in.

   "Good afternoon, Senator Nickler, I probably know the reason for your visit. Sit down and talk." Jonson straightened up, smiled, and motioned for the latter to take a seat.

   "Your Excellency, have you figured it out?" Nickler asked with a smile when he saw Jonson's performance.

   "Last time I was busy dealing with farm affairs, so I didn't have time to reply to your Excellency. The Carmen family has always been on good terms with the Tate family. Naturally, it will not damage the relationship because of some trivial grain transactions." Jonson shook his head and said magnanimously.

   But his heart was bleeding. As the direct leader of the farmland reclamation operation, he was also the first person responsible for the loss of this operation... The price paid is really indescribable.

   "What Congressman Johnson said is not unreasonable. The Carmen family has indeed always been good friends of the Tate family." Hearing what Johnson said, Nickler finally felt relieved, echoed with a smile, and then said:

   "In this case, why not cancel the contract now."

  Jonson twitched in his heart, but his face remained unchanged. He simply took out the contract and put it on the desk, and he was about to destroy it with Nickler.

  However, at this moment, Jonson's heart suddenly moved, and he pressed the contract again.

   "Your Excellency Jonson, this is?" Nickle frowned.

   "I don't know if the Tate family has canceled the contract, how will the food supply preparations for the coming year be?"

  Nickler narrowed his eyes slightly, "All the farmland in the Tilemei Plain has been restored, and everything is the same as before, so the food supply will naturally follow the previous years."

   "Although the farmland has been restored, if you say that everything is the same as before, that's not necessarily the case... Today's Tilemei Plain is the territory of that Colin MP." Jonson stepped back from the contract, let go of his hand and continued:

   "I have an idea, would you like to hear it?"

  Nickler held the contract in his hand, paused and said, "If it's about that Colin MP, I'd be interested to hear about it."

  Jonson smiled, "What I want to say is actually very simple - the Tate family, have you considered changing the food supply?"

   "The fields I've been looking for have almost been reclaimed. Although limited by the cost, most of them have been abandoned, but the land reclaimed by the Kaige Kingdom is still preserved."

   "Although it is not big, the food that can be produced is probably less than half of the Tilaimei Plain, but it is still more than enough to supply the Tate family."

   "Member Johnson...Can you offer a lower price for food?" Nickler asked, rubbing the contract in his hand.

   "Exactly." Jonson smiled and nodded.

  Nickler squeezed the contract in his hand, considered it carefully for a moment, and said with a smile: "If the grain transaction can be concluded at a lower price than in previous years, there is no reason for the Tate family not to choose you."

   "Then that's it. Would you like to sign a contract of intent to purchase grain with me on behalf of the Tate family?"

  Jonson laughed loudly, and took out another contract.

  As he said, most of the farmland reclaimed this time is not very favorable because of the geographical conditions, and has chosen to give up after the restoration of the farmland in the Tilaimei Plain—

   After all, if you insist on growing food in those places, the ratio of input to output will definitely not be as good as that of the Tilaimei Plain.

  If the farmland in the Tilaimei Plain has not recovered, it doesn’t matter if the investment is slightly higher. Food is always in demand, and setting the price a little higher is not afraid that no one will buy it.

   But now, it is not a wise choice to continue to cultivate those farmlands. At that time, the price of the grain produced will be higher than that of the Tilaimei Plain, and there is a high probability that it will not be sold. If the price is the same, it may lose money.

  However, except for those farmlands that are not worth cultivating, they still found some farmlands with superior geographical conditions during this reclamation.

  The input-output ratio of these farmlands is not inferior to most of the farmlands in the Tilaimei Plain, and they can already compete with them!

  Of course, the premise is to be able to occupy the market share that originally belonged to the Tilaimei Plain.

   "Your Excellency Nickler?"

  Thinking of this, the smile on Jonson's face became more enthusiastic, and he pushed the new contract over.

  Nickler's eyes flickered... If he could find a cheaper food supply channel for the family, it might be able to make up for it.

  But thinking of Colin, he paused and said, "I can't decide on this matter. I need to go back and respond to the family council."

  Although he hated Colin, a wizard of mixed blood, he did not dare to underestimate him.

  If Colin hadn't ruled the Tilemei Plain, he would definitely agree to Jonson's current proposal, but now...he still needs to go back and consider it carefully.

   "It doesn't matter. If the Tate family has any ideas in the future, they are always welcome."

  Jonson did not continue to persuade. In his opinion, as long as he contacted in advance and was willing to lose more benefits and reduce food prices, there was no reason for these forces not to choose him as a new food supplier.

   At that time, the markets of these families will be opened, and then the price of food will gradually return to normal.

  In this way, as long as the farmland in hand can be profitable in the future, the operation of reclamation of farmland this time cannot be regarded as a complete failure, and there will be a day when it will pay back.

  It's a pity... There are still too few suitable farmlands in hand. Even if they seize these market shares, it is unlikely to affect the grain business in the Tilaimei Plain.

   “…Colin Leonard.”

  Jonson muttered in his heart, his eyes darkened involuntarily.

  Now as long as he thinks of this name, the anger in his heart can't stop churning.

   Taking a deep breath, Jonson stood up, and he was going to contact familiar forces to talk about the new food business.

   In any case, even if it cannot pose a substantial threat to the grain business in Tilaimei Plain, at least it can disgust the new congressman he hates to the bone!

  …

  Tilemei Plain, golden ears of wheat.

  As soon as Colin returned, Shelley came to the door.

   "Improved farm tools?"

   "Yes." Shelley smiled, "The assembly line suggestion you mentioned before was very helpful to me, and I guess you may have different opinions on farm tools.

   It’s just that you were not a member of the Truth Society before, and you didn’t have much relationship with the Tilaimei Plain, so there is no reason to bother you. "

   "But now—" Shelley looked at Colin and said with a smile, "You are the master of Tilami."

  Colin also smiled, and said, "Actually, if you don't come to me, I should also come to you to discuss farm tools after I have dealt with my own affairs in the past few days..."

At this point, he paused, and then said: "As you can imagine, I actually have a lot of ideas about farm tools...Well, if possible, I actually want the Tilaimei Plain to realize fully automated agricultural production as soon as possible. Only in this way can we better develop other industries.”

   "Comprehensive...automation..." Shelley frowned slightly, chanting this somewhat awkward word.

   "That's still too far away for now, we have to start simple..."

  Colin smiled. He had never farmed before, but he knew the general development direction of cultivating high-yielding crops and using agricultural machinery to replace labor. This was enough to bring about a huge change in the agricultural production of the entire Tilaimei Plain!

   Among other things, if high-yield crops can be cultivated, and suitable agricultural machinery can be developed.

   Then in the case of a sharp drop in costs, if he wants to, he can seize most of the grain market in the Neustadt area at an extremely low price.

   I am afraid that within a few years, most of the food supply in the Neustadt area will be monopolized by the Tilemei Plain!

  Of course, this is just an optimistic estimate. To achieve this, the premise is to do a good job in keeping the confidentiality of mechanical farming.

   This is obviously difficult.

  But Colin didn't plan to develop agriculture only in the Tilaimei Plain in the future, so it doesn't matter if he can't keep it secret.

  Anyway, the geographical conditions of the Tilaimei Plain have determined that its position in agriculture is unshakable.

  In the evening, the sun sinks into the horizon.

  Just as Colin and Shelley finished discussing the design of the farm tools and were about to take a break for a while, they suddenly felt palpitations.

  Under the guidance of his intuition, he activated his world perception uneasily.

  After the familiar sense of consumption, the world has changed.

   Without looking around, Colin stared at the south.

   There, an eye-catching black air rushed straight into the sky, and a strong sense of crisis suddenly enveloped him, as if some kind of gaze was projected from the sea.

  ‘Is this...the malice of the gods? ! '

  Update and adjust again, I will divide it into two chapters if it exceeds 6k words.

  Below 6k, it should be a single chapter, so you don’t have to think about how to divide the chapters in the old middle.
