Chapter 927 Small Strategies [This chapter is jointly named and updated by all book friends-12]
Raymond is an expert in botany. Botanists are still very popular these days, because this subject has a deep connection with agriculture.

Farming and animal husbandry may not be an industry that attracts people's attention, and even many federal people still use their stupid and backward heads to think that the so-called farmers should wear overalls and long rubber shoes, in all kinds of feces Neutralize and deal with wheat.

This is people's stereotyped prejudice against agriculture and animal husbandry, and they always feel that this is the image of agriculture and animal husbandry.

But in fact it is not. Agriculture and animal husbandry are developing at a high speed and are becoming more and more important.

Since the Federation liberalized its immigration policy a few years ago, the population of the Federation has experienced the fastest growth rate in history, although these growth figures are not natural birth growth figures.

The population of the federation has increased sharply, and correspondingly, the food supply of the federation has become tight.

In the past, people only imported various excellent agricultural and animal husbandry products from abroad in order to satisfy the pursuit of higher quality food.

Now, people have to import a lot of cheap food to meet the needs of the bottom people, otherwise the bottom society will face the dilemma of lack of food.

This has also prompted the rapid development of agriculture and animal husbandry, and the value of agriculture and animal husbandry has also begun to increase.

This has also led to various botanists starting to go uphill, and the federal government and various private institutions are frantically appropriating funds, hoping that these botanists can research more advantageous crops to meet the growing food gap in the Federation .

Every botanical expert has at least three or five items in his hands, and there are still a bunch of items in the queue.

However, even though the research on food is becoming more and more popular, compared with the real cash crops, especially those high-end cash crops, they are still a bit worse in terms of income.

When Shiji's phone call came to the laboratory, Professor Raymond immediately put down his research work and came to Shiji's side, waiting for Mr. Lynch to summon him.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, he didn't feel dissatisfied at all. After all, the people of the Federation know that the time of the rich is precious, and they are busy all the time.

After nearly half an hour, the secretary finally opened the door, and then Mr. Lynch walked in, standing near the door.

Professor Raymond walked over quickly with a smile on his face, and stretched out his hands from a distance. After stopping the approach, Lynch stretched out a hand reservedly, and was held by Raymond's two hands.

"Mr. Lynch, as soon as I heard that you had some problems to solve, I immediately put down my research project and came here. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Professor Raymond is over 60 years old, and his hair is already graying, but the appearance he shows at this moment is not what an old man in his 60s should show.

At least, he shouldn't be so humble.

But who can guarantee that their personality is noble and unshakable in front of money?
Even Mr. President is a slave to money, let alone a professor, we shouldn't be so mean to him!
"Thank you very much for taking the time to come here. There are indeed some problems that bother me. I need someone to explain them to me. I heard that you are an expert in this field..."

Lynch let go, and entered the room with Professor Raymond. After sitting down, Lynch asked, "Professor Raymond, I don't know if you have enough tobacco leaves, especially the tobacco leaves used to make Clover. understand?"

Professor Raymond nodded, "I have been studying various tobacco leaves for a long time, and I dare not say that I am an authority in this area, but basically in this field, there is nothing that I do not know. "

Confidence and the quality of action unique to the Federalists shone in this professor.

Lynch nodded slightly to express his affirmation of the other party's narration, "Professor Raymond..."

"You can call me Raymond, that's what my friends call me!"

"Okay, Raymond, the main tobacco we use now is from Marillo, is there a substitute for it?"

"I mean, if we don't continue to use Marillo leaves, is there anything else in the world that can match it?"

The monopoly of raw materials is always the most difficult obstacle to overcome. The general in Mariro will definitely not let this profitable business slip away from him easily, and he will definitely get it back from other sources.

After he tried some methods and failed to achieve effective results, he would control the price of raw materials, which was exactly what Lynch was most unwilling to see.

The most important part of the huge profits at every moment is that the prices of raw materials are so low that they outrageously.

In addition, they opened up the relationship between the border and the anti-smuggling team, and a large amount of illegal tobacco was shipped in at a price equal to free, processed into Ke Lefu, and sold at a sky-high price.

Once the price of raw materials rises, the profits of Ke Lefu and Mo Mo are not so high.

Professor Raymond pondered for a while. He didn't open his mouth blindly. He was used to dealing with these rich people and knew how to deal with them.

After pondering for a moment, he said slowly, "I'm not sure what the quality you mentioned corresponds to. We can split it into fragrance, nicotine content, potency, and various elements for comparison."

"Flavouring is not my specialty, I'm not sure, but if you just use the element content in each tobacco leaf as a reference, then I don't think Marillo's tobacco leaves are necessary."

Professor Raymond's affirmative answer made Lynch very happy, and he smiled more, "It's really a pleasure to chat with you, maybe we will give you some topics soon, I hope you can spare time Research it for us."

Professor Raymond's well-maintained face suddenly showed a lot of wrinkles. The subject is money. At least a quarter of the large amount of experimental funds can flow into his wallet, or even more.

"That's what I should do, Mr. Lynch."

Lynch nodded, and his attitude was more gentle, "I have a doubt."

"Please say."

"Nagalier is close to the equator, why haven't I heard of any commendable tobacco leaves in Nagalil?"

Professor Raymond laughed again, and he would do that too.

"Mr. Lynch, there is no Nagalil, but it doesn't mean that there are no other places. In fact, there are at least five high-quality tobacco leaf varieties around the equator line."

"I think the reason why we don't use these leaves is not that they are not good enough, but that they are too far away from us."

This was a very interesting answer. Lynch looked into Professor Raymond's eyes. The latter just looked at each other for a second, then lowered his head slightly and looked away to show respect.

The distance is too long and the shipping cost is too high, which is indeed a problem.

Marillo's high-quality tobacco leaves are located next to the Federation, which saves a lot of shipping costs, and the corruption of the border and anti-smuggling teams also frees up more room for taxation.

It is obviously not cost-effective to buy tobacco leaves from other places or grow them yourself.

Labor costs, freight costs, losses, these are enough to shrink profits every moment.

However, there is no choice now.

"Professor Raymond, I would like to entrust you to Nagalil to select some suitable tobacco leaves for us to grow locally. If you have read the news recently, you should know what happened..."

Professor Raymond nodded. Every moment's shareholding has undergone a huge change, which is equivalent to cutting off the connection between every moment and Marillo.

It can even be said that this multinational company has become a federal local company under Lynch's intervention, which is definitely not a small matter.

At the same time, this also means that Lynch may not be able to buy enough tobacco.

Seeing Professor Raymond nodding, Lynch continued, "I plan to open up a huge tobacco plantation in Nagalil."

"There are suitable seasons for planting all year round. We can ignore winter and harvest tobacco leaves continuously."

Professor Raymond also nodded in agreement, "That's true, at least three seasons a year, if we choose to breed and select some mutated or optimized seeds, maybe every season is a harvest."

Lynch stood up, followed by Professor Raymond, and he held out his hand, "Then I'll be counting on you, Raymond, when do you have time?"

Professor Raymond held Lynch's hand tightly again, "Anytime, anywhere!"

Since showing his flaws every moment, Lynch has been thinking about another thing-how to find more things for the people of Nagalil to do.

In the past two years, after being instilled by the federal capitalists, the local people have gradually begun to get used to some new things. Coupled with Akumali's indisputable principles, the future direction of Nagalil has been determined.

If you want these people to be satisfied with the status quo and don’t want to change, you have to find something for them to do, let them take the initiative, spontaneity, and don’t want to change from the bottom of the society, in order to truly solidify the social form and structure.

The simplest thing is to "send money" to them.

It sounds weird, but for the people of Nagalil, this is sending money.

Allowing them to grow cash crops and food, in addition to meeting some political needs, will also allow some Nagalilians who want to change but are unwilling to work for the federal people to find a way out.

Not everyone will choose to obey the requirements and management of the Federation, and they will all spontaneously want to work for the Federation.

There are always people, like those from Al-Shabab in Nagalil, and some of them still don't want to work for foreigners.

So planting commercial crops and food is obviously in line with their purpose of changing their lives without changing their original intentions.

They just cultivate the land, and then sell the output to other Nagalilians (small grain merchants, small tobacco merchants). No one tarnishes their beliefs and pursuits, and they are still free.

Secondly, Nagalil's cheap labor can save a lot of money. In addition, the new federation of Nagalil is actively moving closer to the federation, and the preferential policies in taxation will only become bigger and bigger. In the end, the only payment , it is possible that only the freight is left.

And this is not a problem at all. The well-developed shipping of the Federation can solve any problem for Lynch, and even he can buy some freighters to run these things.
