Chapter 1090: Chapter 576: Prepare with Both Hands, Make Both Strong!_2

"Our boss made it clear that the planting season is starting immediately, and we will give priority to hiring from the local villagers," he said. "The compensation will definitely be better than before!"

"If you do a good job, you might even be hired as a long-term worker with a steady wage! We’ll come over to recruit tomorrow, so those who are interested should prepare to sign up..."

Mary Powell’s words ignited the villagers’ enthusiasm, and they crowded around again, starting to ask about the details.

This time, they dropped the batons in their hands and put away their agricultural tools behind them, their faces eager and smiling, yet somewhat humble.

This reminded Mary of her childhood, when she would follow her father to negotiate the price of grain with the merchants.

Her heart couldn’t help but feel a pang of sadness.

"Everyone, don’t push," she said. "As long as you can work and aren’t lazy, our boss has said he will hire everyone!"

The moment Mary said this, she regretted it somewhat. Though the land here was vast, the farming was meant to be mechanized, and in truth, not that many people were needed.

Now that she had boasted such a claim, how would she explain it to her boss?

However, the villagers were unaware of Mary’s inner turmoil; hearing her promise, they were initially stunned and then burst into cheers!

The previous Japanese farmers in this area didn’t operate like this. They would specifically pick the young and strong, obedient, and those who demanded lower wages.

Out of necessity, the villagers would desperately undercut each other’s prices, some with no other choice but to go to the city to work or wander off.

Now that this Chinese person was saying they would hire anyone willing to work, didn’t that mean everyone could get a job and earn money?

How could they not cheer at such news?

Rainee Thomson saw this and glanced at Mary without speaking.

"I didn’t want this..." Mary knew she had caused trouble and said in a low voice, "Seeing these people, I thought of my parents working in the countryside..."

"Let’s not talk about that now," Rainee said as she saw a policeman approaching. "Let’s first hand over the people to the police, then we’ll talk. At least for now, the chaos has stopped, and you’re the one with the biggest contribution. As for recruitment, go back and discuss it with the boss, the boss is not without compassion."

Mary looked at Rainee with gratitude and promised:

"I will definitely not be this impulsive in the future!"

After hearing about this incident, Sean Knight thought for a moment and said:

"Since the word is already out, let’s go ahead with the recruitment. After all, there will always be those who can do the work. However, Mary didn’t handle this well. The bonus we intended to give her will be put on hold for now. We need to wait for the agricultural experts to arrive before we can finalize this."

Yes, Sean planned to cultivate this land, and he was not unprepared. After the procedures for the cultivated land had been transferred, he immediately contacted experts from the Xinjiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences through Craig Davis.

The experts there were very interested when they heard about the over a million acres of land in need of cultivation and immediately some volunteered to come over.

Sean, of course, greatly welcomed their interest, and so both sides hit it off. Moreover, the experts would bring along some interns and students, which Sean was very happy about.

As for the villagers, Sean had a plan.

Now, Mary and her group were heading over to calm down each villager, and with the government’s intervention, there were no longer any disputes over the land ownership.

To firmly defend the inviolability of the landowner’s rights, the Violent Agencies In the Town even arrested dozens of people—these were individuals who had worked under the Japanese and were abandoned after the Japanese left, leaving them with a mission.

Of course, Sean also allowed Mary to represent him in donating a batch of supplies and cash to the local officials and Police Station on behalf of each Little Town.

This made the subsequent recruitment work that Sean and his team carried out go extremely smoothly.

"The soil here is really good!" an elderly professor said as he grabbed a handful of brown soil from the plowed field to examine, then scattered it back to the ground, expressing sentimentally, "Not only is the Soil quality good, but the real advantage is that this is all on a plain, truly a wide expanse of fertile land!

With this Land, we can implement large-scale mechanization. The model we use in Xinjiang can be directly applied here. Also, looking at the number of rivers around, there’s no shortage of water at all, this is just a natural granary!"

"Regarding plant diseases and insect pests as well as Seeds..." Sean’s House was also in the Countryside, so he naturally knew what was important. With domestic production capacity for Agricultural resources seriously in surplus, why not just get started here? After all, without Investment, there can be no yield.

"You can rest assured about that," Professor Nelson said, laughing. "This Season, I’ll be staying with the Students right here at your farm, no need to worry about Money.

We’ve already applied for Funds from the Agricultural Research Institute, and such an experience is rather rare. It’s not easy for someone from Xinjiang to manage to establish such a large tract of Land Overseas! Xinjiang has to show some support!"

Sidney Roberts was ’racing’ across the vast open plains in a tractor. This was the life he was accustomed to.

Some of the adults and children were picking up immature insects from the plowed fields. The landlord had said that each worm could be exchanged for Money, and for those with nothing else to do, this was at least a source of Income.

Meanwhile, some others were collecting the roots of perennial weeds from the fields. If these weeds weren’t removed, they would take root again once the Planting started, competing with the Crops for nutrients.

In some of the fields that had not yet been plowed, many local villagers were scattering chemical fertilizer and Farm manure. These were locals who had Already been hired by Sean, getting paid for each day of work.
