The Motherland Comes to the United States

Chapter 137 Goodbye Aunt Mei
"Of course I am not unfamiliar with the four major grain merchants of ABCD. They are all world-class giants." Andy nodded, and said: "Controlling the agriculture of many countries in the world, bullying farmers at both ends - suppressing low prices when purchasing grain in grain-producing areas." Prices, after a monopoly is formed, are raised to sell in food-deficient areas; most of the seeds and fertilizers needed by farmers are in the hands of the four major grain merchants. They control global food production and trade, including pricing power."

"Yeah, the four major grain merchants are awesome, and there are many countries that have experienced their persecution. For example, in Chile in 1970, they exaggerated the degree of food shortage in Chile and directly doubled the gap of 200 million tons to 400 million. tons, let the United States enter its grain market under the pretext of rescuing Chile, resell the low-priced American grain to the people at Chilean domestic prices, and make a large number of local grain merchants in Chile go bankrupt. They then took the opportunity to merge and monopolize the Chilean grain market .”

Bai Ye smiled and said:

"There is also Mexico, which was originally an agricultural exporter. Later, under the so-called free trade agreement, American crops could flow into Mexico unscrupulously, but Mexico was not allowed to sell crops to the United States, which made Mexico's native crops unable to sell. Farmers and grain After that, the merchants went bankrupt, and then they could only rely on imports for a long time, completely becoming an agricultural importing country. With so many poisonous farmers in Mexico, it’s not like the four major grain merchants have a blood debt.”

To put it bluntly, the four major grain merchants want to grow economic crops in underdeveloped areas, let them buy them, sell them in developed areas, and then buy cheap grains in developed areas, sell them in underdeveloped areas, and earn a few bucks, which is a win. numb.

In modern society, there are still so many famines and so many people starve to death. The four major grain merchants have contributed a lot.

In a place like Mexico, growing... cash crops seems to be more profitable than growing food crops, right?But it ruined Mexico's future.

Food is a weapon that is more powerful than nuclear bombs when used well.

"So... what are you going to do?" Andy raised his eyebrows, and said, "Agricultural technology is an industry with a lot of investment and very slow results. This is hard work. Mercury Media, just throw money at it, Mars Military industry, it’s because you are lucky that you met such a fool as Tony Stark, Venus Energy, it’s because you happen to have a scientific and technological breakthrough project, and Saturn Biology, it’s because you have Norman Osborn as a father, you think If you are playing agriculture... do you have such an excellent father as Norman Osborn in this industry?"

"It's really hard to achieve quality. It takes a long time to make breakthroughs in agricultural technology, but we can focus on quantity first." Bai Ye smiled: "We can first set a small goal that can be achieved, for example, to become the world's largest landlord first."

"Landlord?"

Andy was confused by Bai Ye, didn't he talk about agriculture, why did he mention the landlord again?
"Of course, don't you know? Many of the top richest people in the United States are also top big landowners. We want to play Jupiter agriculture, and it is difficult to overtake in a short time in pure agricultural technology, so we will first buy a lot of land. Planting and laying a good foundation. Grain is a real asset that can provide stable returns during long-term holding.” Bai Ye said: “You will know after a little research. In fact, the return on investment in farmland can outperform US stocks. American farmland The average annual return on the investment was 11.2%. This compares with an average annual return of 500% for the S&P 9.6 over the same period.”

Bai Ye paid attention to agricultural issues in his previous life. In addition to the grievances between the four major grain merchants and China Grain Storage, there was also the news that Bill Gates bought land in the United States and became the largest farmland owner in the United States.

In 2022, Bill Gates already owns more than 27 acres of farmland in the United States, equivalent to more than 1090 square kilometers of land, almost equal to the entire area of ​​New York City.

There is also Bezos, the founder of Amazon, who also owns a huge amount of land. The area is larger than Gates, reaching 42 acres, becoming the 26th largest private land owner in the United States.It's just that the land he bought includes some forests and uncultivated land, which is worse than Gates in terms of quality.

Of course, while Bill Gates is the largest private owner of farmland in the United States, he is not the largest landowner in the United States.The largest land owner in the United States is billionaire John Malone, who owns 220 million acres of land across the United States!
"After our Jupiter agriculture becomes the largest landowner in the world, we can turn these farms into the largest experimental platforms for agriculture, food and climate-related technologies to complete the huge agricultural technology investment map." Bai Ye said with a smile: "But now There are too many things, and the establishment of Jupiter Agriculture needs to be put aside for a while. After I do another big ticket and earn a lot of money, we will start to operate Jupiter Agriculture.”

"OK!"

Andy has no objection. After all, Bai Ye is willing to spend a lot of money to invest in agriculture, which is a good thing for the world.

With the resources that Bai Ye can mobilize, if there is a big movement in agricultural technology, it is estimated that fewer people will starve to death due to famine in this world.

After chatting with Andy about the group, Bai Ye temporarily left AIM and returned to Venus Energy to participate in the second-generation Ark reactor experiment with Ivan Vanke and Anthony Vanke.

……

After a day's experiment, Bai Ye was quite satisfied with the progress of Ivan Vanke's experiment. This guy has something in his stomach, and it won't be long before he acquires the Ark reactor technology.

After finishing work, Bai Ye walked out of the company building, stretched his waist, and drove to AIM company, planning to have another dinner with Betty.

Don't look at this chick's mouth that is out of love, but Bai Ye can tell that she is just arrogant. When he comes to a nine-thousand body, Betty's body will become honest even if she says no.

on the way.

But Bai Ye received a call from Aunt Mei.

He smiled, but still picked up:
"Hey?"

"Bai Ye!" Aunt Mei said angrily: "You and Parker, what the hell is going on between the two of you? Why haven't I seen Parker come home for so long? Also! During this time I Calling you, I can’t get through, why? Did you blacklist me? Damn, I didn’t blacklist you after what happened last time, but you still blacklisted me gone?"

"Uh uh." Bai Ye quickly explained: "Aunt Mei, you misunderstood, it's not that I put you on the blacklist, it's mainly because I've been on a business trip abroad for a while, maybe it's because the mobile phone signal is not stable, so you didn't get through, right? .”

Well, in fact, Bai Ye blocked Aunt Mei temporarily, because Aunt Mei has been worried since she was quarantined because of Parker's involvement in the Kurt Connors incident, and she can't wait to call Bai Ye every day Let me report Parker's safety, which makes Bai Ye a little overwhelmed. He has a lot of things to do every day, a lot of unscrupulous things, and a lot of serious things. He can't revolve around Parker and Aunt May every day, right? I have no choice but to pull Aunt Heimei temporarily until Parker's control serum is made.

Aunt Mei is now released from the blacklist because Parker's control serum has been produced. Now Parker can always maintain the rationality of being a human being, and can also control himself to transform freely between human form and lizardman form. In other words, Parker is now also a Transcendent with similar strength to Gwen, but Gwen is Spider-Woman, and Parker may become Lizardman.

Bai Ye continued: "And Aunt Mei, Parker's matter has been resolved, I can take you into the Osborne Group to see him at any time, but he still needs to stay in the Osborne Building for two more days."

"Really?"

Aunt May asked in surprise.

She has been worrying for so long, is the nightmare finally over?

"Of course it is true!" Bai Ye said decisively: "So are you going to see Parker now? I can pick you up right now."

Aunt Mei stopped being polite to Bai Ye and gave her address.

If it was her own business, since the last embarrassing incident, she would have been ashamed to bother Bai Ye, but if it was related to Parker, then the matter should be dealt with urgently, and she couldn't control so much.

When Bai Ye saw Aunt Mei again, she was wearing a plain white shirt and denim blue straight-leg jeans, exuding a refreshing and pure aura.

The white shirt has a regular shape and a folded neckline. It looks reserved and serious, but it all reveals a unique playfulness and agility. It is very beautiful and charming, making it impossible for people to see that she is close to 40. up.

Straight-leg jeans perfectly outline her slender legs. The high-waisted version enhances the waistline and elongates the proportions of the legs, making her look taller and thinner. It just rightly shows the charm of a mature woman to the fullest.

"It's so beautiful!" Bai Ye praised: "Aunt Mei, you are getting more and more beautiful. When you walk on the street, people you don't know will think you are my sister!"

"Stop being silly!" Aunt Mei gave him a white night and said, "You should drive."

"OK."

Bai Ye started the car and headed towards the Osborne Building.

"You really went abroad on a business trip during this time, didn't you block me?"

Aunt Mei asked again in disbelief.

Well, apart from being anxious about not being able to contact Parker, Aunt Mei is still a little upset, because Bai Ye kissed her secretly last time, and turned her back to block her words, which made her think no matter what...Bai Ye lifted her pants and The feeling of running.

"I knew you didn't believe me!" Bai Ye smiled helplessly, and put the air ticket and other things in front of Aunt Mei, and said, "I'm really busy these days, and I went to North Africa to deal with a biological laboratory. Things are very important, not intentionally ignoring you."

Aunt Mei took a look, and it was true that Bai Ye went to North Africa during this time.

This made Aunt Mei feel a little better. It turned out that he wasn't the one who blocked me: "What about Parker? It's been so long, and there is still no conclusion?"

"Parker is fine." Bai Ye said while driving the car, "If Parker wants to, he can go home right away, but Parker himself doesn't want to go home for the time being."

"what?"

Aunt Mei's willow eyebrows are upside down:

"I was so worried about him at home, and he actually had a chance to go home, but he didn't?"

In fact, it is because Parker has developed the control serum, but he still cannot guarantee the effect 100%. Don't look at him being fine for the time being, if he returns home, an uncontrolled one will transform into a crazy lizardman again, and then hurt Aunt May ,what to do?
So Parker decided to observe for a few more days before going home and reuniting with Aunt Mei after confirming that the genetic mutation in his body was stable.

But in order to prevent Aunt Mei from venting her grievances on herself, Bai Ye had no choice but to wrong Parker.

So Bai Ye nodded without hesitation: "Yes! During this period of time, Parker's activities were limited to the Osborne Building, but he was not locked in a prison with nothing to do. He used this time to spend time in the Osborne Building. In the biological laboratory, he is engaged in scientific research work. So although the restrictions on his freedom in life have been lifted, he said that his experiment has reached the most critical stage and will be successful soon, so he cannot be distracted for the time being..."

"Parker!" Aunt Mei's anger was successfully ignited by Bai Ye: "This kid has reached the stage of youth rebellion, right? I was so worried about him at home, and he was detained and addicted, and he doesn't want to go home?"

"Children nowadays are like this. They are so playful that they don't know what it means to go home. Harry is also like this, so don't worry about it!" Bai Ye urged: "Aunt Mei, for this situation, My suggestion is to beat him up! Beat him to death! After many beatings by me, Harry is obviously much more well-behaved and sensible now."

Aunt Mei didn't speak, but looking at her furrowed eyebrows, she knew that Parker's life in the future might not be easy.

Osborne Building.

Bai Ye led Aunt Mei into the company building by brushing her face, and took the elevator to the biological laboratory where Parker was located.

When Bai Ye came downstairs to the company, he quietly sent a message to Parker, so of course he knew that Aunt Mei was coming to see him.

"Aunt May."

At the door of the laboratory, Parker greeted with a smile.

He was wearing a white lab coat, and with his thin figure, he looked rather awkward.

"Stinky boy!"

Aunt Mei walked up to Parker, and looked at him carefully:
"Did you not eat well during this time? How did you lose so much weight?"

"Aunt Mei, I'm fine."

Parker smiled awkwardly.

In fact, Parker is really thinner than before. I don't know if it's because of the research and development of the control serum that he has spent too much time sleeping and eating, or the result of the genetic mutation itself.

"Okay, stop standing at the door, do you want to go in and see what Parker has been doing during this time?"

Bai Ye said with a smile.

Alas, he wanted to see Aunt Mei beat Parker violently, but it seemed impossible. After all, Aunt Mei was not Parker's biological parent, and the discipline was too strict, which hurt his feelings.

And Parker is not good at words, he doesn't have such a smooth tongue like Bai Ye, so he still has to liven up the atmosphere with Bai Ye.

"I want to see, Parker, what have you made during this time."

Aunt Mei snorted softly and walked into the laboratory.

Behind him, Parker whispered, "Brother Bai Ye, why did you bring Aunt Mei here?"

Bai Ye said: "It's not that I want to bring her here, but she insists on forcing me to bring her to see you. It's not that you don't know your Aunt Mei's personality, and her personality is also very stubborn. How can I hold her back?" ah."

Parker said: "Then what should we do now? Aunt Mei wants to see my experimental results...I've been researching the control serum of lizard serum during this time. Where are the experimental results?"

Bai Ye said: "Anyway, Aunt Mei doesn't understand scientific data. If you fool around, she must not be aware of it. What are you afraid of?"

Parker: "Fooling Aunt May? Isn't that good?"

Bai Ye: "Then are you willing to tell Aunt Mei directly that you were turned into a lizard man by Kurt Connors during the attack on the Osborne Building together, and you were imprisoned?"

Parker: "Forget it... I'll think about it for a while."

"What are you two talking about behind my back? Are you speaking ill of me?"

Aunt Mei stopped in her tracks, turned her head, and frowned at the two of them.

"no!"

Bai Ye immediately said:

"Parker is blaming me for why he brought you here at this time and caused him a lot of trouble."

"Um!?"

Aunt May looked at Parker sharply.

Parker: "..."

He opened his mouth wide and looked at Bai Ye in disbelief.

Brother Bai Ye, you are a real dog!
So he sold him?
But when he thought about it, Bai Ye didn't seem to be talking nonsense, but just embellished and exaggerated the matter.

"Aunt Mei, I was wrong."

Parker could only honestly admit his mistake.

"Humph!"

Aunt Mei snorted coldly.

Next, Parker honestly introduced the status of the laboratory to Aunt Mei. As for the scientific research results... He listened to Bai Ye and casually made up a creature that "restores sanity to people who are mentally abnormal and prone to madness" research direction.

In a sense, Parker is not making up nonsense, because he is indeed doing this kind of work, but it sounds to Aunt May that Parker is participating in the research of developing drugs to cure mental illness, which makes Aunt May He nodded half-understood, feeling that the kid did a good job, at least he did good deeds for the country and the people.

Visited for half a day.

Aunt Mei was also satisfied.

I asked Parker if he would go home at night, but Parker also refused. His current condition is not suitable for him to leave the laboratory immediately.

In case of any abnormal situation, he can still be controlled here.

Aunt Mei didn't force too much. After all, the child has grown up and has her own thoughts. She can't control Parker's life, so she told Parker to take good care of herself, and followed Bai Ye down the Osborne Building.

"Thank you for today's matter."

Aunt Mei thanked Bai Ye.

"Where is it? It's just a matter of little effort." Bai Ye smiled and waved his hand: "Parker's talent is very strong. He has already demonstrated it in the Osborn laboratory. He has a bright future in the future!"

"Really?" Aunt Mei was also very happy to hear Bai Ye say good things about Parker: "Parker, this kid, has been smart since he was a child."

"Yeah." Bai Ye nodded: "Are you going home now? I have nothing to do, let me see you off?"

"Ah, this..." Aunt Mei immediately gave Bai Ye a vigilant look, but when she thought of Bai Ye bringing her to see Parker and running back and forth, Aunt Mei felt a little embarrassed again: "Isn't it too much trouble for you?"

"No trouble, drop by."

Bai Ye smiled slightly.

He worked tirelessly to help Aunt Mei, and it wasn't for nothing. Now that it's time for Aunt Mei to give him a chance to trap Bory, right?
