Homo sapiens.

Based on last year's data, Tianzhu produced 1.2 million tons of rice last year, 20% of which is 2400 million tons.

Good luck, because of the war in Kyiv this year and the North American soybean epidemic the year before, global food prices are still running at a high level. Tianzhu has exported a total of 1470 million tons of rice and 892 million tons of wheat this year.

In other words, at this time, Tianzhu's grain inventory is basically empty.

Now the production of 2400 million tons of rice is suddenly reduced. This will not only affect exports, but also cause an internal food crisis.

To add insult to injury, this year's Tianzhu continued to experience high temperatures in summer, and the wheat-producing areas of the Deccan Plateau suffered from long-term high-temperature drought, which also saw a considerable reduction in production.

"According to our intelligence and the analysis of professionals from the Ministry of Agriculture, it is estimated that Tianzhu's summer grain production will decrease by about 4500 million tons this year."

When Li Qingye heard this number, his expression was also very solemn.

Having already lost the Assam region, Tianzhu has reduced its grain production by another 4500 million tons this year, leaving only about 2.2 million tons of total grain output.

And the population of Tianzhu minus Assam's 5500 million, there are about 13.2 billion left.

With a population of 13.2 billion and 2.2 million tons of grain, the average per capita is only 166 kg, which is 233 kg less than the previous average of 67 kg.

And Tianzhu is a free market model, and now it is facing an international financial crisis.

Li Qingye saw the crisis at a glance.

In fact, it is not just Tianzhu, the two most populous regions, Xiba and Dongba, are also facing a severe food crisis at this time.

He quickly summoned Liu Zhifan, who was in charge of the Ministry of Industry, in a video call.

"Zhifan, how is our food production this year?"

As soon as Liu Zhifan heard this question, he had no time to think about it, so he called up the database and replied: "This year... our grain production in each district is not bad. The rice production volume is 3.3 million tons, and the strategic reserve has 1.6 million tons. Rice."

Li Qingye is also looking at the data.

At present, the Southeast Asian regions under the control of Homo sapiens have developed a total of 93 square kilometers of cultivated land, or 13.95 billion mu.

Among them, 3.72 million mu of rice is planted, usually in two seasons a year, with an average yield of about 880 kilograms per mu.

There are also staple crops such as corn, wheat, soybeans, peanuts, potatoes, sweet potatoes, cassava, rapeseed, sugar cane, oil palm, and bananas.

At the same time, Homo sapiens is also the world's largest organic fertilizer producer, and the world's second largest producer of nitrogen, phosphate, and potash fertilizers.

"Currently our total grain production is 9.7 million tons, and our strategic stockpile is 3.4 million tons."

Hearing this data, Li Qingye felt a little relieved.

After all, even if Homo sapiens now includes the population of 2800 million in Africa, the total population is only 6.48 million.

What's more, Homo sapiens has another killer feature, which is the supporting dull agricultural factories in underground base cities around the world. If these production lines are fully loaded, the grain output can be doubled several times.

Homo sapiens can feed all human beings. This is not a joke, but has real confidence.

"Zhifan, discuss with the strategic reserve office to start a batch of non-light agricultural factories and increase our strategic stock to 5 million tons."

Liu Zhifan heard the words and asked: "Boss, is there any problem internationally? Has the recent financial crisis affected the agricultural sector?"

"It's the information just received, you can take a look first."

Li Qingye shared the information from the Field Service Department.

Liu Zhifan, who was browsing in a hurry, glanced at it briefly, and his face became serious. As one of the executives of Homo sapiens, he naturally knew that the company had a plan to attack the agriculture of various countries.

But he didn't expect that the Tianzhu people would blow themselves up.

But he frowned again: "Boss, will Tianzhu go to buy Lucia's food?"

"Don't be kidding, where's the money in Tianzhu? In order to restore the military, they exported a large amount of food and spent 350 billion US dollars on the procurement of military equipment." Li Qingye waved his hand.

Liu Zhifan thought about it again, and he came to his senses.

At this time, Tianzhu had no money at all, and America's aid funds also specifically required them to purchase weapons from the military-industrial complex.

Lucia's current food prices are not cheap. After all, due to the impact of the soybean disease in North America, the Far East had to increase food purchases from other places on a large scale.

In the past, the food purchases in the Far East were mainly from Brazil, Argentina, Hongshawadi, Lucia, and the Principality of Kyiv.

Later, the Homo sapiens company suddenly appeared, and the Far East did not continue to purchase food in Hongshawadi (mainly because there was no gold dollar foreign exchange).

Coupled with the war in Kiev, the food in the Kyiv area was also affected.

Therefore, the proportion of Lucia's grain imports in the Far East region has become higher and higher, and many of them are long-term contracts.

Originally, Tianzhu and Lucia were still competitors in terms of food.

Now Tianzhu wants to import food from Lucia, and he will definitely be slaughtered severely.

Of course, Tianzhu can also consider importing from Homo sapiens, but with the unclear relationship between Homo sapiens and Assam, Tianzhu will most likely not choose Homo sapiens.

On the contrary, Xiba and Dongba are very likely to ask Homo sapiens for help.

Therefore, Li Qingye began to make the company's management prepare well, so as not to be in a hurry.

And the recent financial crisis, also in the crazy harvest of America, is moving towards an intensified rhythm.

Great powers such as Homo Sapiens and America are all showing their talents in harvesting the world.

At this precarious critical moment.

A sudden intelligence came from the Baltic Sea.

Chapter 321 Feeling Good About You

9 month 27 day.

deutsche.

Berlin.

Spleen Bismarck House.

"This is just reported from the Baltic Sea Patrol." A man with a horse face and glasses handed over a document very solemnly.

The Mediterranean old man behind the desk, after receiving the document, opened the first page with veins popping out of his forehead, his identity trembling slightly.

Secretary-General Williams looked at the old man in the Mediterranean with some concern, for fear that the other party would be too emotional and accidentally suffer from a cerebral hemorrhage or a heart attack.

Snapped!The Mediterranean old man smashed the documents on the desk, his face full of anger: "Too much bullying! Pirates! Bastards! Hooligans!"

The secretary-general and the intelligence officer who reported the intelligence all bowed their heads as if they hadn't heard.

"Harley, is the damage assessed?"

The intelligence officer Harley looked bitter: "It has been evaluated, even if it is urgently repaired now, it is still unknown whether the pipeline can be repaired before the end of the year, especially because there is a shadow of the black ship behind this incident..."

"Damn upstarts in the New World, a group of pirates..." The old Mediterranean man cursed angrily again. After a few minutes of cursing, he couldn't get rid of the hatred in his heart.

It's just that he got tired soon, so he sat back on his seat, rubbed his temples, and relieved the pressure and headache.

After resting for a while, the old Mediterranean man still suppressed his anger and madness, and called several cabinet ministers to come to his office.

Less than an hour.

In the office, several core cabinet ministers arrived.

Orlando, the economic minister in charge of the economy, said with a panicked face: "Just now, the price of the natural gas futures market soared by 84%..."

"As expected." Minister of Industry William said with a blank expression.

"Now we can only purchase natural gas from North America to replenish our inventory, and the price of natural gas in North America has climbed to $2.5 million per ship." Economic Minister Orlando felt that something was wrong at this time, and he continued very anxiously:

"The economic crisis and the North American stock market crash have spread to the whole world, and now our stock market has also plummeted, and it is even more serious."

Industry Minister William's poker face was filled with blankness and helplessness: "Major chemical, metal smelting, and glass manufacturing companies have already complained to us that the cost of electricity and fuel is rising sharply, and they are almost unable to bear it."

The old Mediterranean man looked at the situation in front of him, his head was about to burst.

The war in Kyiv, the soaring cost of gas, the global stock market crash, and the loss of the Southeast Asian market. At the same time, it has to face the global competition of Homo sapiens, and the financial harvest of America.

None of this chain of events was good.

He couldn't help lamenting in his heart: Why did I encounter so many things when it was my turn, why I was so unlucky, I really wanted to leave...

But at least he still has a little sense in his heart, so he can only force himself to calm down and continue to discuss with other cabinet members.

It is very necessary to save the market and stabilize the industry.

If it is not rescued, the consequence will be that Germany will be forced to de-industrialize. Once Germany, which was founded on industry, loses its industry, it will be no different from a broken leg.

It's just that the old man in the Mediterranean is also very clear that America's military base is in Germany, and there is too little room for him to operate.

difficult!

too difficult!

At this time, the old man in the Mediterranean suddenly became a little envious of West Asia's position.

If Germany is located in West Asia at this time, then America will never dare to harvest like this, because Homo sapiens is right next to it.

With Homo sapiens and America pulling each other, all parties in West Asia can now have their own way. I am afraid that America will push all parties in West Asia and let Homo sapiens take advantage of it.

And Germany is too far away from the headquarters of Homo sapiens, and Homo sapiens has no interest in Europe at all.

……

Lucia, whose weather has turned cooler.

The Kremlin has started to heat up.

Caesar, who was warming himself up by the fire, listened to the report of the Cossack leader and flipped through several documents expressionlessly.

After listening to the report, he waved his hand: "Let them go! When winter comes, they will naturally know our importance."

"Do you want to continue to pay attention to the situation in the Baltic Sea?"

Caesar thought for a while: "Continue to pay attention."

The Cossack leader nodded: "Of order."

He put down the document on the Far East Gas Pipeline and had already signed his name. Caesar looked at the oil painting on the wall, which was the portrait of Ekaterina the Great.

Rubbing his temples, he was also a little tired. Although the Kyiv war was mired in the quagmire, this did not make Caesar feel unsolvable.

He propped his cheeks and squinted at the world map on his left.

That large area in Southeast Asia has been modified into lavender.

"Homo sapiens...the timing of your appearance is too good!"

Looking at the Homo sapiens company in Southeast Asia, Caesar became more and more happy. If there was no Homo sapiens company, Lucia's current situation would definitely be even more difficult.

Kaiser picked up another document, which was about approving Homo Sapiens' application to open a branch in the Far East.

Although he is afraid of Homo sapiens' penetration ability and deceptive high benefits, Caesar understands that everything has advantages and disadvantages.

Now that he has decided to open the Far East to the Khitans, he can naturally open it to Homo sapiens.

This is also Caesar's helpless choice. He tried to find a balance in the openness, and he introduced the power of Homo sapiens to make the three parties just in a balance.

Of course, Caesars is also wary of Homo sapiens and does not allow Homo sapiens to recruit employees in the Far East. All employees recruited in the Far East must be approved and reviewed by Lucia.

In addition, Homo sapiens companies are restricted from operating supermarkets and schools.

Currently only Sapien companies are allowed to invest in farms, hospitals, mining, transportation, warehousing and finance.

These industries are also the result of weighing the pros and cons after discussions between Caesar and a group of staff.

Lucia needs Homo Sapiens very much now, so she has to open up so many industries.

Whether it is Homo sapiens' medicine, daily necessities, electronic products, or automobiles, these have effectively filled the gap in Lucia's needs.

And Lucia obtained a lot of gold dollars by exporting a large amount of refined crude ore, oil and natural gas.

Except for the industrial overlap in the food field, the two sides basically have no overlap in other directions.

Of course, this is Caesar's own wishful thinking.

The Homo sapiens company now imports a large amount of various ores, oil and natural gas, not because they do not have any, but because they deliberately do not exploit their own resources in order to maintain trade balance and protect their own resources.

Otherwise, with Homo sapiens' bio-mineral enrichment technology, ultra-deep mining technology, and bacterial cracking technology, the minerals, oil and gas in the territory can be completely self-sufficient.

At present, the onshore and subsea oil and gas fields near Borneo, Java, Sumatra, and Timor Island are basically in a state of protective exploitation.

The deep veins in various places are also in a state of protective mining.

And as the Homo sapiens company's exploration efforts are increasing, the reserves of various mineral resources are also increasing.

Therefore, Caesar thought that Lucia and the Homo sapiens industry were complementary, but in fact it was an illusion deliberately created by the Homo sapiens company.
