Chapter 133 The united farmer
At least the tractor, which looks like an oriental red, looks very pleasing to the eye in Sheffield. Just looking pleasing to the eye is already the first step to success. Take the first-generation tanks that came out during World War I as an example. That kind of tank looks very pleasing to the eye.
It was awkward. By the time of World War II, tanks were close to the appearance of later generations, and the effect was very obvious.
"There are no problems with transmission and steering, but the water tank can still be improved." The meticulous Hermannbach thought for a moment and said, "In terms of power, we can produce two specifications, one is steam power, and the other is internal combustion engine, so that we can meet the needs of customers."
Different groups have needs.”
In this era, the internal combustion engine has just appeared, and the improvement of steam engines is still continuing. It is in the transition between the old and the new, so most people do not think that the steam engine has no development value at all. Another reason is that coal is not a good choice for many countries.
Problem, but not all countries have oil resources.
However, for the United States, internal combustion engine power with greater potential is obviously more suitable. Unlike European countries, the United States itself does not lack oil resources, and its petrochemical industry is no worse than any other country, or even stronger. There is no need to give up.
The internal combustion engine found its way onto the steam engine.
"The track aspect is not a problem at all. I believe that for the German steel industry, this new crawler tractor is not a problem at all. Most of the German population is concentrated in industry and there is a lack of agricultural population. This has also caused a gap in German agricultural products, at least in Germany.
In terms of staple food, Germany's land is actually sufficient and can be completely self-sufficient, which is also beneficial to Germany's development." Sheffield talked to Hermannbach, "Strong industry can take agriculture further."
Sheffield feels that he can be called an internationalist, worthy of his status as a senior German fan. Although he cannot do a righteous act of selling a kidney to aid Germany, he can definitely achieve a win-win situation.
As for the United States, it can use machinery to shift to a truly large-scale agricultural model. You must know that in the United States in later generations, a family farm of two or three people in the United States can produce thousands of tons of various grains a year. Highly developed agriculture
Technology has triggered a revolution in American agricultural production and greatly improved the efficiency of agricultural production.
Two million family farms have established the hegemony of the agricultural empire of the United States. There are many countries in the world that are short of food. Once food is used as a weapon, it is more reliable than oil or arms. Especially for those countries that are not strong in agriculture.
For example, bombs may not be able to solve it. Once famine occurs, few countries can withstand it.
As for this agricultural hegemony, Sheffield feels that it is not far away from him, and is in a position within easy reach. As long as he gently hooks his fingers, it will fall into the palm of his hand.
"Back then, my family imported Shire horses from the UK. These giant arm horses supported our farm. Now that we have better tractors, I believe we can run the farm even further." Sheffield put his hands in his pockets and faced his follower.
A group of bodyguards behind us said, "I believe our companions in the southern states will also be happy about this. The door to big agriculture has appeared before our eyes, and the Manifest Destiny advocated by the Democratic Party is about to be realized."
The gap between the United States and the European powers now is actually much smaller than the gap between the Republic and the United States in later generations. In industry, it just lacks high-tech parts, and in agriculture it has an advantage. Once large-scale agriculture is successfully promoted, this will not be a matter of advantage.
, it can completely defeat any European power, and more optimistically, it can defeat any country in the world.
"We still need some time to conduct experiments to improve the reliability of the tractor." Hermannbach left for a while but came back immediately. He seemed to be very satisfied with the results, but he still gave his own suggestions in order to go further.
"No, any faults will be exposed during use. Pull all manufactured tractors back to the farm. There is no more real data than actual use. Don't worry, my land is completely sufficient!" Sheffield patted He.
Manbach's shoulder said, "Everything will go wrong within two months, and then mass production will begin."
Of course, some worker training also takes time. There is no need to rush into these things. This time Sheffield will see if they can start working on the assembly line. After the first batch of assembly line industry workers are trained, they can start car assembly.
First agricultural machinery and then cars. This sequence has already been embedded in Sheffield's mind. Farm machinery can now be used at home, and now these products can be fully digested in the farm at home. This is not bragging for oneself. As for cars that serve the public
, and push it back.
Relevant preparations naturally need to be carried out. As soon as it is launched, it will immediately enter the stage of mass production and occupy the market with lightning speed. But before that, it is still necessary to enter the village quietly and not to shoot!
After leaving the company, John Connor, who was waiting outside, came over and whispered, "Boss, there is no problem at the prison. The two wardens have selected enough people to carry out community work."
"So many prisoners have come out. Although they have not left Texas, we still have to be careful. We should not bring out serious criminals, especially those who have killed others. We should strictly monitor them when working in the community." Sheffield nodded.
He said, "Texas is the largest state in terms of area, and we still need to recruit workers for matters in other states, so we may need help from some Dixie partners. It's best to have an interview."
"Then I'll go notify you!" John Connor nodded, opened the carriage door, and watched Sheffield board the carriage.
The status of the Sheffield family, according to a line, is equivalent to the total green forest in the thirteen provinces. It is not necessarily accurate, but it probably means this. Before Christmas in December, Sheffield met some people from other states.
Representative, many people’s companies have business dealings with their own families.
In fact, there are not many people coming. It is enough for heavyweight representatives from each state to come, and other farms can convey the message on their behalf.
Of course, Sheffield did not get down to business at the beginning. Instead, they talked about the establishment of a consortium university and talked about the benefits, showing the elite nature of this university.
Then Sheffield changed the topic and talked about the recent voltage war controversy, "Originally I didn't want everyone to help, but many people are waiting to see the joke. Others don't know that you know best, why don't the southern states have the power to fight with us?"
DuPont, the company Carnegie compared to, you know exactly what the Union Army did during the Civil War. They systematically destroyed the wealthy families before the war. Texas was spared because of its special status. I just want to say
In a word, farmers, please unite, not to mention the citizens of the southern states support us."
