The picture of the dog farming the land spread all over the world, causing an uproar.

It also made the already outrageous world even more outrageous.

But this is a great thing for investors in space elevators.

Of course, investors are not concerned about dogs, but eggplants that are one meter long, pumpkins the size of houses...

You know, the collapse of Xu Fei's talks with the four major grain merchants means that global grain prices are about to rise sharply.

If it is placed in previous years, it will increase if it rises, at most it will be one-tenth more expensive, and no one will care about it.

However, the countries and regions investing in space elevators have invested countless funds and resources in order to carry out projects.

Later, the commercial operation of the space elevator was like a reassurance to the investors. Not only did the investors take the initiative to increase investment, but they also made the investors take the initiative to provide more resources, and even took the initiative to take out loans...

As a result, most of the countries participating in the space elevator are in a financially tight predicament, and they cannot afford foreign exchange to purchase food from overseas.

Without food, there will definitely be big troubles in the future.

But now, the investor saw the picture of the dog farming, and instantly found another profitable project for the space elevator, which is space breeding.

Space breeding originated in the 80s and 863s. Even the relatively backward East included it in the [-] program and invested a lot of money in space experiments.

It's just that manned spaceflight is a very difficult project for the parent star, including Mao Xiong, who invested in the Salyut series of space stations, and it is impossible to achieve permanent astronauts.

If permanent residency cannot be achieved, experimental personnel cannot be arranged, and only the remote control technology with 'very serious network delay' can be used to operate mechanical equipment for breeding.

Therefore, the progress of space breeding is very slow, and even in the new century, there are not a few cases of success, otherwise there is no such thing as genetic modification.

But it's different now.

The space platform of the space elevator project actually cultivated more than ten kinds of genetic mutant seeds.

Most importantly, these seeds are completely different from the "genetically modified seeds" criticized by the Internet.

For example, the normal seed sequence is 12345.

After the gene mutation, the sequence became 15432, which has characteristics such as early maturity, high quality, high yield, and strong disease resistance, but the taste is basically unchanged, or the taste is stronger and better.

After the genetic modification, the sequence becomes 12345678, with 678 added, that is, cucumbers have the taste of tomatoes, or tomatoes have the taste of apples, or grapes have the taste of pineapples, all of which are genetically modified.

Therefore, most genetically modified genes cannot save seeds, but space breeding can breed the next generation in the natural environment.

Then, use the space platform to cultivate more seeds, and then bring them back for planting. Perhaps the rice that once harvested twice a year will become three crops a year, and the yield in a single season will be higher.

As long as food production increases, countries and regions that invest in space elevators will naturally be able to survive the 'increase in food prices'.

For this reason, representatives of space elevator investors who are resident in City X flew directly to Daze.

The representative of Goutuo-Nan Bangzi spoke first: "Mr. Xu, the space elevator was attacked and three nodes were seriously damaged, which led to the suspension of the project for two years.

At present, when the situation on the home planet is complicated, this is tantamount to worsening the situation for investors in space elevators.

But the space platform breeds mutant seeds. If we increase the scale of cultivation, maybe we don’t need to wait to build a space elevator for the moon, and we don’t need to wait until helium 3 is brought back to realize profitability. "

"Everyone should know the environment in outer space. If we increase the number of cultivation, we need to provide more water, oxygen, organic fertilizer, etc., which is very difficult."

Xu Fei shook his head and sighed, but did not refuse on the spot.

Because the building of the space elevator is not to mine helium 3, but to test the star engine on the moon, and then Boom the moon or let the moon wander with the parent star.

At the same time, considering that the environment of the home planet will become increasingly harsh in the future, the company will also build a space planting project.

This is the main reason why the space platform breeds mutant seeds.

In February of this year, the space elevator was completed. Since the company does not mine helium 2, considering the early publicity, in order to avoid troubles from investors, the best way is to wait for the space platform to be completed and have the ability to build small planetary engines, and then Boom the space elevator , putting the entire space elevator project on hold.

But the expansion of space agriculture projects and the construction of small planetary engines are not small movements. When the space platform reaches a certain scale, it will not be able to hide from the satellites.

Therefore, the family needs a reason to blatantly create space agriculture.

And in the field of business.

The company actively invites investors to participate in space agriculture, which is tantamount to "asking for others" and is very passive.

On the contrary, if the investor wants something from itself, it means that the investor has the initiative.

Because of this, Xu Fei interviewed the four major grain merchants, deliberately talking about collapse, leading to a sharp increase in global food prices, and then exposed the "dog farming" and many genetically mutated crops through Swoosh Mood, which made people Food-deficient countries around the world see hope.

Now that the investor of the space elevator is taking the initiative to come to the door, it means the success of the space agriculture plan. The next step is to use the initiative that they have mastered to slaughter the investor and maximize the benefits.

' Sure enough, no one knows how to do business better than me. '

Xu Fei sat in the conference room, sighed again with a frowning face, and brought his acting skills to the extreme, "I understand everyone's feelings, and I also know the seriousness of the food problem, but the space platform seems to be endless, but in fact it includes living quarters, experimental areas, There are very few areas, material storage areas, and areas that can be used for breeding."

Gouto-Woshima Council, "Mr. Xu, we can continue to expand the space platform. After all, during commercial operation, we will send up hundreds of thousands of square meters of alloy plates."

"Building a space platform requires manpower, and cultivating seeds in outer space also requires manpower. In particular, the selection of high-quality seeds with a one-ten-thousandth probability of mutation requires a large number of experimenters. Now that the space elevator is out of service, if you want to send so many people up... "

Goutuo, the representative of Yidaili, gritted his teeth and said before Xu Fei finished speaking: "Director, we can make additional investment!"

Xu Fei was surprised and said, "Your finances are tight, and precious metals are also sold out, so what are you going to use for the project?"

"Loan, as long as you lend us a loan, won't we have money?"

After the voice of the representative of Yidali fell, Wadao, Nanbangzi, the representative of North American TEP Group, and the representative of Faguo Renault suddenly realized and nodded their heads.

Seeing this, the Canadian representative said in disbelief, "Mr. Xu's interest rate is [-] per day? Don't you think it's too high?!"

The Nanbangzi representative shook his head and said, "The price of food in the world is about to rise sharply. Now many countries are secretly buying it, and the loan interest is naturally rising. When the price of food rises, the loan interest may exceed the daily interest rate of Director Xu. What's more, we are investing in space breeding, and the annual rate of return must be more than [-] per day, and the final return will be thousands or tens of thousands of times higher than the loan interest. Therefore, it is perfect to ask Director Xu for a loan to finance the project. "

Wajima, Idaly, the representative of North American TEP Group, the representative of Faguo Renault, etc., nodded again after hearing the words.

Facing this situation, the representative of New Zealand wanted to complain: Are you afraid that you are not a dog?

But Jamaican second-hand car dealers are rampant in the Tasman Sea, and New Zealand needs Germany's help in fighting terrorism, so as not to offend Grand Duke Xu.

As for other countries...

If the food problem can be solved and big troubles can be avoided, no one cares about the daily interest rates.

Because the country is a country and everyone is working.

Seeing that the loan was agreed on the spot, Xu Fei immediately took out Wall Street dividends and more than 5000 billion U.S. debt accumulated in recent years.

But just when he took out the calculator and planned to divide the money and get the money back through additional investment, Xu Fei saw the space platform on the XLED screen, and his heart moved, "Everyone, you say, if we put the space platform The platform is made into a ring, just like a planetary ring, so that it revolves around the parent star, and it also has the function of alternating day and night, can we create space agriculture?"

Representative from Canada: "Mr. Xu, how do we send water, oxygen, organic fertilizer, etc.?"

"Have you ever seen a vacuum blood collection tube? Insert the needle into the patient's blood vessel, and connect the other end to the vacuum blood collection tube, and the blood will automatically flow into the vacuum tube. In the same way, we build a tube in outer space, connect it to the sea of ​​the mother planet, and pump out the sea water. If we go to outer space and desalinize seawater, maybe we can also obtain space salt."

The representative from New Zealand was very puzzled, "Mr. Xu, are you sure this is not a fantasy? You know, the gravity of the parent star and the self-weight of the seawater will offset the pressure from space. I estimate that the seawater will stay at most tens of meters high and will not flow to Outer space.”

"The key factor that restricts the development of science and technology is not technology, nor brains, but materials. We can use all kinds of new materials and keep trying. As long as we find something that counteracts gravity, maybe we can realize this idea, of course. , even if it cannot be realized, we still have a space elevator, which can be transported up in a carriage."

"..."

"So, you might as well borrow more money and increase investment again."

After Xu Fei finished speaking, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

My family's plan at the beginning was to seek loans from countries all over the world, and when my family owed a butt of debts, they would not have to pay back all of them once the flood washed over them.

What now?
It seems to be the other way around, countries around the world owe us money.

If the flood floods, who will we ask for debts?
Xu Fei immediately put away the Wall Street share and the documents of many U.S. debts, intending to refuse to lend.

But then I thought about it again, when the water rushed, North America was gone. What do we need so many dollars for?
'Sure enough, having money is also an annoyance. '

……

I'm late again, so I'll take half a chapter off and make up for it tomorrow.
