Seeing the old man's expression of embarrassment, as if this land was his own, Su Mo couldn't help but click his tongue in surprise.

Fifteen thousand people, half a month, even if the manual harvesting efficiency is not high, the converted area is staggering enough.

This year, the area for winter planting has been expanded by one-third, which will inevitably attract more laborers.

"Sure, what a huge market these tens or hundreds of thousands of people are!"

"It may be difficult for my technology to enter the market, but as long as I eat these people, even if one person gives me a little, the more people there are, the benefits will be terrifying enough!"

With some ideas in his mind, Somo was not stingy and immediately took out a dry cigarette from the bag under his leg.

They say that where there are people, there will be a market.

When there is demand, a variety of products will be available accordingly.

After discovering that this thing was actually sold in the territory from the first day, Somo spent 8 points to buy two full packs.

In the past two days, whenever I encounter someone asking for advice, I always use this thing to achieve success.

"Hey, cigarettes, you are very polite."

After taking the dry cigarette, the wrinkles on the old man's face seemed to be exuding happiness.

Especially when Sumo took out a lighter and clicked on it in cooperation, his satisfaction seemed to overflow.

Immediately, he began to ramble on about the situation in Sangtian Town.

"The first time our Tianyuan Territory started contracting foreign fields, it was still four years in the wasteland."

"At that time, there were not so many people in the territory, and Sangtian Town was only one-tenth of its current size. But at that time, our lord Tianyuan was afraid that the disaster would bring a devastating blow to the food, so he allocated some money during winter planting in the territory.

The cultivated area is very large, almost as large as ten acres per person."

"But no one expected that the disaster that year did not target food at all, which led to the immediate liquidation of the territory, and had to start this model of outsiders assisting in harvesting."

After explaining the origin of this grand scene in a few sentences, the old man changed his tone and began to recall it half braggingly and half narrating.

"I was there during the first harvest. At that time, there were only two contracted grain banks in Sangtian Town, which were far from the scale they are now. And we independent people could even mortgage our things and get a few acres of land.

The contracting rights and make a lot of money”

"First of all, I'm not bragging. For the first time, my old man and my two sons contracted a total of twenty acres. After including the handling fee, deposit, and the land, we made a full profit of seven acres.

!”

Patting the two shy young men sitting next to him, the old man took a big sip with great satisfaction.

But then, looking at the rolling farmland passing by quickly outside, he said regretfully:

"I still don't have enough funds. After the first harvest, I felt that I could do this contract farming work, but I didn't have the funds and I couldn't open such a big stall."

"By the time we came here in the second year, which was the fifth year since Wasteland, Sangtian Town had completely changed its appearance. The area was more than five times larger. And the most terrifying thing was that there were only two grain stores before. By that year, there were actually

We have opened a terrifying 21 stores!”

"We, the independent people, can no longer contract land. We can only work for these grain stores and pay a high tax to these middlemen."

"In the fifth year, the three of us contracted 25 acres, but the final harvest was only five acres."

The profit dropped from 35% to nearly half, approaching 20%.

The old man's experience seems to be a reflection of most people in the car. As soon as he finished speaking, there were people talking about it.

"I said, uncle, you are doing well. In the third year, we and I purchased ten acres of land, but in the end we only had one and a half acres~"

"My opponent, there are even fewer people in the third year. In the first two years, not many people knew that Tianyuan Territory was recruiting people. You are considered a blessing."

"The six of us rented fifty acres. Guess what, we worked for half a month, and in the end we paid for one acre of land."

"Go, go, you spent it on your own and you were happy, who is to blame!"

Income is a hot topic whether on earth or in the wasteland.

Once someone mentions it, the discussion becomes one in an instant.

However, listening to the quarrels of these people behind him, the old man remained unmoved. He just sniffed and continued:

"The market in the wasteland was really bad for six years. There were too many food stores that year. At its peak, there were about forty stores. They all competed maliciously. As a result, they didn't make any money, and we didn't make any money either.

In the end, all the money was made by the vendors selling food and renting out houses.”

"But seven years after arriving in the wasteland, the competition among grain stores was too great. After only six stores closed down, the situation improved a lot. The profit margin that year was still around 20%."

"What about this year?"

Seeing that the old man was about to finish smoking the dry cigarette in his hand, he took out another cigarette. Somo handed it to him "honestly" and leaned his body against it.

In a sense, the information provided by the old man is very useful.

Of the four potential shops previously selected in the free market, two of them are grain stores.

At that time, Sumo was still wondering why a grain store would hire electricians, a type of work that they couldn't work together.

Now it seems that these people are simply rich.

The income from just one summer harvest is probably more than the income from some small and medium-sized shops in the city.

Even if it costs money to hire electricians for development, these people can afford it!

"This year?"

"Young students, we have only one choice this year."

After dusting off the cigarette ashes, the old man seemed a little melancholy.

"There are only two food stores left this year, namely Zizailiangfang and Qiankun Food Store. But if we have to choose, we can only choose Ruyi Food Store."

"Why is this?"

"Why? It's not because of..."

After a pause, the old man simply winked and asked the eldest son next to him to take out a gray-black leaflet from his bag.

Taking the crumpled piece of white paper that had not been rubbed, Sumo only glanced at it a few times, connected the information he had collected before, and instantly understood the situation in Sangtian Town.

"This energy stone sickle is too advantageous. I'm afraid Zizailiangfang will suffer a loss this year."

"It's a pity that the person who contracted the territory cannot be changed. Otherwise, if he is willing to release the land for us individual people to contract like before, it is not impossible to survive this disaster."

"But now, who can make more money, who can't live with money?"

After taking back the leaflet handed over by Somo, the uncle felt a little disinterested and closed his eyes and stopped talking.

But it's just like the information he conveyed.

Before the medium-sized high-performance vehicle full of people had completely entered Sangtian Town, only five kilometers outside the town, staff from Qiankun Grain Store came up to promote it.

"Can you let me try?"

Taking the powerful stone sickle from the staff, Somo waved it in a decent manner.

The effect is good, it is exactly what the leaflet said, it can save a lot of effort.

However, due to the lack of ownership rights and the inability to use the system to view information, Somo could only hand the sickle back with regret and began to sit down and meditate.

As far as the current situation is concerned.

It is definitely a good choice to join Qiankun Food Bank, which is about to have a large amount of capital income.

As long as they can make some achievements here, with their funds, it is probably not a problem to buy some rare materials and tools, which will just meet Somo's requirements.

"Let's go take a look first. If we can get in, it would be great."
