Chapter 133: United Farmers

At least the tractor that clearly looks like the Red East looks very pleasing to the Sheffield eye. If a machine looks pleasing to the eye, it is the first step to success. Take the first generation of tanks that came out during World War I, for example. Those tanks looked awkward. By World War II, tanks were close to the appearance of later generations, and the effect was very obvious.

"There are no problems with the transmission and steering, but the water tank can still be improved." The meticulous Hermann Bach 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 different groups."

In this era, the internal combustion engine had just appeared and the steam engine was still being improved. It was a period of transition between the old and the new, so most people did not think that the steam engine had no development value. Another reason was that coal was not a problem for many countries, but not all countries had oil resources.

However, for the United States, the internal combustion engine with greater potential is obviously more suitable. Unlike European countries, the United States itself has no shortage of oil resources, and its petrochemical industry is no worse than any other country, and is even stronger. There is no need to give up the internal combustion engine and find a way to use the steam engine.

"The tracks are not a problem at all. I believe that this new crawler tractor is not a problem for the German steel industry. Most of the German population is concentrated in the industry, and there is a lack of agricultural population. This has also caused a gap in German agricultural products. At least in terms of staple food, Germany actually has enough land and can be completely self-sufficient. This is also beneficial to Germany's development." Sheffield talked to Hermannbach, "Strong industry can make agriculture go further."

Sheffield feels that he is an internationalist and is worthy of his status as a senior German fan. Although he cannot do something as righteous as selling a kidney to support Germany, he can definitely achieve a win-win situation.

As for the United States, it can use machinery to turn to a truly large-scale agricultural model. You should know that in the United States of 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 agricultural technology has triggered a revolution in American agricultural production and greatly improved the efficiency of agricultural production.

Two million family farms have built up the hegemony of the United States' agricultural empire. There are many countries in the world that lack food. Once food is used as a weapon, it is more reliable than oil and arms. Especially for those countries whose agriculture is not strong, bombs may not be able to deal with it. Once famine occurs, few countries can withstand it.

Sheffield felt that this agricultural hegemony was not far away from him, and was within his grasp. He only needed to flick his finger and it would fall into his palm.

"Back then, my family imported Shire horses from England. These giant horses supported our farm. Now we have better tractors. I believe we can further improve the management of the farm." Sheffield put his hands in his pockets and said to the bodyguards following behind him, "I believe our comrades in the southern states will also be happy about this. The door to large-scale agriculture has appeared before our eyes. The manifest destiny advocated by the Democratic Party is about to be realized."

The gap between the United States and the European powers is actually much smaller than the gap between the Republic and the United States in the future. In industry, it is only lacking in the high-tech part, and it has an advantage in agriculture. Once large-scale agriculture is successfully promoted, it will not be a question of advantage. It can completely beat any European power. To be more optimistic, it can beat any country in the world.

"We still need some time to conduct experiments and improve the reliability of the tractor." Hermannbach left for a while but came back immediately. He seemed very satisfied with the results, but he still gave his own suggestions for further progress.

"No, any problems will be exposed during use. Pull all the manufactured tractors back to the farm. There is no more real data than real use. Don't worry, my family has enough land!" Sheffield patted Hermannbach on the shoulder and said, "There are two months for all the problems to come out. Then we will mass produce them."

Of course, it takes time to train some workers, so there is no need to rush these things. This time Sheffield will see if it can start the assembly line work. After the first batch of assembly line workers are trained, they can start assembling cars.

First the agricultural machinery and then the automobile, this order has long been embedded in Sheffield's mind. The agricultural machinery can be used at home now, and now these products can be fully consumed by the farm at home. This is not bragging for myself. As for the automobile that serves the public, it will be pushed back a little bit.

Relevant preparations must naturally be carried out. Once the product is launched, it will immediately enter the stage of large-scale production and occupy the market at lightning speed. But before that, it is still necessary to enter the village quietly and without any hesitation!

After leaving the company, John Connor, who was waiting outside, came over and whispered, "Boss, there is no problem with the prison. The two wardens have selected enough people to do community labor."

"So many prisoners have come out. Although they haven't left Texas, we still have to be careful. We shouldn't bring out serious criminals, especially those who have killed someone. They should be strictly supervised during community labor." Sheffield nodded. "Texas is the largest state in the continent. We still need to recruit workers for other states, so we may need some help from our friends in Dixie. It would be best if we could have a face-to-face interview."

"Then I'll go and notify them!" John Connor nodded, opened the carriage door, and watched Sheffield get on the carriage.

The Sheffield family's status, as a line says, is equivalent to the chief of the Thirteen Provinces' gangs. It's not necessarily accurate, but it's roughly what it means. Before Christmas in December, Sheffield met with representatives from other states, many of whom had companies doing business with his family.

Actually, not many people come. It only takes heavyweight representatives from each state to come, and other farms can convey the message on their behalf.

Of course, Sheffield did not get to the point at the beginning. Instead, he talked about wanting to build a union university and explained the benefits of it, indicating the elite composition of this university.

Sheffield then changed the subject and talked about the recent voltage war. "Originally, I didn't want to ask for your help, but many people are waiting to see me make a fool of myself. Others don't know that you know best why there are no companies in the southern states that can be compared with DuPont and Carnegie. You know exactly what the federal 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 one thing, farmers, please unite, not to mention that we have the support of citizens in the southern states."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"This is natural. Hatred will not disappear so easily. Many Dixie people are watching." Many people expressed their opinions and said that they would definitely provide help to the best of their ability at this time.

I would like to recommend a book about foreign history, The Rise of the Second Empire, which is about the Second French Empire. If you are interested, you can read it. There is also a sports novel, an equestrian novel, which is very rare. The title of the book is The Great Horse Owner. If you are interested, you can read it. Sports novels are relatively unpopular and need everyone's care.
