Let's turn our sights back to North America, New York.
People always use fashion, finance, technology and other terms as labels for New York. In fact, New York is only a small part of New York State. Agriculture and animal husbandry also play a significant role in the economy throughout New York State.
After the catastrophe and the severe devastation of the nuclear winter, the manufacturing industry was dying, and it was difficult for factories and workers to preserve it. But the land doesn't become silent, instead ... it becomes even more fertile.
Nowadays, His Excellency David Lawrence, who is entangled throughout the northeastern United States, is in a rare mood to go outing. He took his wife and daughter to a suburban farm. When he saw endless fields and meadows, the green scenery was very comfortable.
"Look, the soybeans are grown on the left, and corn and alfalfa on the right. Since the temperature has risen, our agriculture is fast recovering." Sir Lawrence, a casual father, was dressed up and relaxed. He pointed at the surrounding farmland, beaming with joy.
Behind the Lawrence family were more than a dozen high-level staff and officials of the Brotherhood of Steel. Seeing their boss so happy, they also rejoiced. Naturally, someone stood up and exclaimed, "General Commander, all this is the result of your vigorous promotion."
"Yeah, in just a few months, we can get the first harvest, and the food shortage will be greatly relieved."
"As long as we have the correct leadership of His Excellency Lawrence, we no longer need to import food or even export. This will further enhance our power."
Although he knows that he is making fun of him, David Lawrence is still very happy. He really helped to promote the restoration of the entire agricultural system, because the hardships and difficulties caused the project to be on the verge of collapse many times.
Farmers, farm machinery, farmland, everything needs to be organized, and Lawrence, who only knows how to fight but not agriculture, has no trouble. But everything is worth it from the current results.
"Dad, why are those cows so thin?" Daughter Anji ran on the field with her puppy and suddenly saw several skinny black-and-white friesian cows grazing. "Those cows are pitiful."
Speaking of cows, the scene cooled down. The unsuspecting person is at a loss, the knowing person is silent. The dairy industry in New York was originally very big, but after the winter, any cows were frozen to death. Are these lonely rare breeding cattle in front of you ...?
Seeing the adults stopped talking, Anji guessed where these cows came from?
"Okay, I see. Except for Victor, the bad boy, no one will protect a few cows specifically. But why are they here?" Angie continued to wonder.
David Lawrence wasn't embarrassed. He said in a relaxed tone: "Yes, these precious cows were indeed bought from Havana. Victor's little didn't know how to raise cows, so He raised his cows to death.
But when we buy cows, we will soon expand their herd. I believe Dad, our people can drink milk again happily within a few years. "
"But why are you all so silent?" Anji still didn't understand. Isn't it a shame to buy cows?
Now David Lawrence's face changed, and he hatedly cursed: "Victor's wealthy fan is a vampire. He sees that we want to buy these cows, so he paid a hefty price, and even said he would rather let Cows die and they don't cut prices. "
"How many coins did he want?" Angie asked.
"It's not gold coins, but a lot of industrial equipment and off-the-shelf weapons and equipment. But that's okay, it's something we can't use for a while and a half." David Lawrence is pretentious, but actually distressed.
For these cows, Lord Lawrence lost more than 100,000 tons of good things, including even several warships-Zhou Qingfeng stated that it is ‘I do n’t need it and do n’t leave it for you’.
"Although we paid a small price, but with these cows, we can recover after all. As long as we solve the problem of food and clothing, I will let Victor's little know that I am powerful."
David Lawrence clenched his fists and waved hard. He felt that his recent work of diligence and love for the people was still very fruitful, and he had great expectations for the future.
But then Anji pointed to the dry land on the other side of the farm and asked, "Why didn't we use that land? The problem of drought still cannot be solved?"
Oh ... this is another problem.
"Yes, the problem of drought seems to be unsolvable for the time being. We are using groundwater and drip irrigation technology, so the investment in agriculture is relatively large." Lawrence did not mind telling his daughter the current difficulties, "but after all, It will pass, and these will not embarrass us. "
The boss is so spirited and aggressive, the brothers naturally applaud. David Lawrence froze over his daughter's shoulder, stating that he was still strong.
Rachel had always been smiling silently, and suddenly received a note from the security personnel. After she saw the note, her face changed, but she put the note in her pocket without any trace, and said nothing.
"What's going on?" David Lawrence sharpened his eyes and saw his wife's little movement.
"A little business trouble. Leave it alone, I'll deal with it later. Today is a leisure time for our family to travel and relax." Since Zhou Qingfeng drove an aircraft carrier to attack New York, Rachel officially stepped onto the political stage and served as On-the-job, such as foreign trade.
"If it's just a small hassle, you will make a decision on the spot." David Lawrence knew that his wife was actually a decisive woman, and she never procrastinated. "What is the trouble?"
Facing her husband's questioning, Rachel could only calmly said: "Just received information from Havana. It is said that the Aurora Corps has organized an African Expeditionary Force and its advance team has already left."
"Africa Expeditionary Force?" David Lawrence read the name aloud, puzzled, "Why Victor Hugo is going to Africa? He can expand to South America. And as far as I know He doesn't even have complete control over the Caribbean. "
"Perhaps something is wrong with our head of the Legion, hahaha ..." A newly joined staff member laughed a few times beside Lawrence.
But David Lawrence immediately turned his head, yelling at the new staff member with an extremely vicious expression: "You can get out."
"Uh ... Mr. Lawrence, did I do something wrong?" The laughing staff felt extremely innocent, he was just kidding ~ EbookFREE.me ~ while other subordinates and followers or bowed or looked In other directions, people who are familiar with their boss know one thing-no one except the boss himself can denigrate Victor Hugo. Otherwise, how do you let the boss who has eaten several times lose himself?
David Lawrence didn't bother to deal with that stupid aide again, and instead asked his wife, "Victor now has the ability to send an expeditionary force to Africa? Is he so strong?"
"I'm afraid it's related to another of his recent plans. The kid recently placed an order for parts manufacturing with us. After analysis, our guy thinks it's an aluminum alloy skeleton for heavy airships. He might want to use cheap airships Transport of people and supplies. "
"Genius idea," Rachel said after thinking about it, "but I will reject his order and not let his plan run smoothly."
"The kid thought of using an airship?" David Lawrence suddenly realized, but he immediately shouted, "No, no, why should we refuse? We can set a high price, which can be used to restart our own heavy industry."
"Uh ..." Rachel said with some frustration. "Dave, we are not the only supplier, and Inkley has the same ability. The guys in the south have recently recovered their relationship with Victor. Quickly, they don't seem to hold the carrier anymore. "
It is not difficult to manufacture the aluminum alloy skeleton of a heavy airship. This technology matured more than 100 years ago. This order was dropped because the industrial capabilities of the Aurora Corps were too scum.
And when he heard that he still had a competitor, David Lawrence whispered angrily, "Damn, why can the kid beat us every time? A few cows knocked us a lot. And we But there is no way to let him bleed out hard? "
God, you do n’t have long eyes! 8
