Chapter 76 It's too hard to be a farmer

76

Levi really has a good impression of Lorna Dann. This is a responsible and proud girl. She does not allow herself and her companions to be burdens for others, even if she has to go to the bitter and cold Alaska to do the hardest work.

They are still a little out of touch with society, and it may be because they have superpowers, so when doing anything, they will first consider using superpowers to solve problems.

But it is not easy to make money with superpowers legally and make big money!

Such a great guy, Logan is not enough to get a salary for a lifeguard.

Li Wei thought about the words, then smiled and said, "I can invest in you...

You all have legal identities, you can buy land where you live, I can send you enough supplies through channels, and you can develop a completely safe green farm.

Raising livestock, growing food, vegetables, fruit trees…”

As he said that, Li Wei raised his hand to stop Lorna who wanted to speak, and he smiled and said, "I know this is destined to be a loss-making business, but you have seen my situation, and I also need a completely reliable source of food.

I definitely can't farm in Canada, so you are the best farm managers.

Of course I am not asking you to stay on the farm all your life. When the farm is running normally and can be self-sufficient, you can even settle in any place where you can buy farm food, such as Los Angeles, Miami, New York...

I definitely want to establish a transportation channel from Los Angeles to Canada, and the food from the farm can be delivered to me continuously."

Thunderbird, who has been a farmer for several years, hesitated for a moment and said, "You may not know how much money we will lose every year now. If it weren't for Lorna, we would have been unable to hold on.

If you expand the scale of "Eden" according to your ideas, apart from the initial investment, you will lose millions of dollars a year in the later period.

In the past, Alcali monopolized half of the world's grain seed market, indirectly affecting 80% of the food supply industry chain. Even if he collapsed, it would take a lot of money to get enough seeds and livestock bypassing its former channels, and it would cost a lot of money, and it would cost every year."

As he said that, Thunderbird glanced at the restaurant, he said with a wry smile: "No matter how much the farm output is, it is destined to be a loss compared to the cost of investment. Are you sure you can support such consumption?"

Li Wei's hometown in the countryside in his previous life, so of course he knew the difficulties of farmers.

The farmers in capitalist countries are actually very good. Large-scale planting and large-scale breeding sound beautiful, but they also need to reach a certain scale. God does not cause any trouble to finally make limited money under the "guidance" of Wall Street.

In fact, agriculture and animal husbandry industries with low turnover rates that trade once or twice a year, without policy support, it is really difficult to make money, and there are also great risks.

Many people imagine that home has a home of one acre of three cents, and it doesn’t exist that you can live a nourishing life by growing vegetables and raising chickens and ducks. Seeds, fertilizers, feed, pesticides, livestock and cubs all require money...

A farmer is busy all year round, and after finally counting, there are many people who can only spend a few thousand yuan left in food and drink or even lose money.

What really makes money in agriculture are those big companies with pricing power...

Li Wei knew that in his previous life, the two dairy giants, "Small Niu" and "Small Li", actually did not raise dairy cows themselves because the company could not afford such a large investment and could not afford such a large risk.

With the help of the government, dairy farmers take out loans to buy cows. They have no pricing power and need to bear breeding risks. After all, it is almost common sense that "the wealthy ones don't count."

All 'Kao' and 'Kao Li' is to establish a R&D center, establish a production line, and then purchase milk from dairy farmers for processing and deliver it to thousands of households.

Of course, as long as the government controls it effectively, this is a good poverty alleviation model, but it is impossible to say that farmers can make money because of it.

Now what Lorna and the others are going to build a small-scale comprehensive farm, breed and plant it themselves. As long as God doesn't make any mistakes, there should be no problem with self-sufficiency, and maybe there is still left.

But if the scale is expanded and the prices of seeds, fertilizers and feeds are far beyond the market price every year, the farm is destined to lose money.

Li Wei had no choice in this situation. He could find a way to establish an import channel through Yuri, but it was impossible to control the transportation costs...

It is normal for a seed to come from China to cross the ocean. The price of a seed is five times higher.

This is because the seeds are small in size. If they are absolutely reliable breeding cattle and sheep, the price will be outrageously undesirable.

However, Li Wei was determined to solve the problem of eating, because except for Logan and his friends, he was preparing to use the X-gene fruit himself. If this thing deteriorated because of something, he would really have no place to cry.

Building an absolutely reliable food base is also an extremely important thing for Li Wei.

After thinking about his "deposit", I thought about the support of Yuri, a rich man, who lost a million dollars a year to have a meal, I think it should be acceptable.

Looking at Lorna's strange expression, Li Wei smiled helplessly and said, "Not only do you need it, but I actually need it too."

For $3 million, we invested $3 million in advance, first put up the farm shelves, and then I will find a way to get reliable seeds and livestock.

As for the loss...well... let me find a solution in the early stage."

As he said that, Li Wei subconsciously touched his wallet and said helplessly: "Isn't it just money? There will always be something to squeeze in if you squeeze."

Li Wei didn't even mention the issue of farm ownership, because a farm that is destined to suffer losses does not need to care about this. What's more important is that he wants to establish a stable connection with "Eden".

What Li Wei said before was really not a joke to let them settle in Los Angeles. After the curtain was opened, the global crisis was repeated again and again. Li Wei also needed some reliable power to support his actions. These mutants whose range of activities was limited due to food problems were the best helpers.

Li Wei is not the kind of person with a strong desire to control. Of course, he has a way to use the food supply chain to curb these mutants, but he can do this kind of thing, which will definitely lead to disgust, but also goes against Li Wei's character and Professor X's last wishes.

Li Wei hopes that he can make friends with these people from "Eden". It is nothing to pay a little money, and giving sincerity is the best way to do it. After all, there are basically no bad people among the remaining people.

Lorna and Thunderbird were obviously moved by Li Wei's sincerity. Professor X's "trust" implanted by him was confirmed, which made them completely let go of their worries.

After looking at Levi's restaurant again, Lorna suddenly smiled and said, "Those gold belong to you, but I want to ask you to help us organize some reliable food and seafood to send to "Eden", and the reserves there will soon be bottoming out.

I'll wait here for a while and then go back with the goods...

Well, I can’t cook, so I can’t help in the kitchen, but I can be a temporary waiter and do I need me to call you boss now?"

Just as Li Wei was about to agree to Lorna, a familiar voice rang behind her...
