Chapter 1120: 586
I was indeed keeping my promise.
At lunchtime, a team member came in from outside and reported to Sean Knight:
"Boss, there’s a tractor driver outside who wants to see you."
"A tractor driver?" Sean Knight was puzzled, "What does he want with me?"
"He says he wants to thank you personally for giving him a stable job and for raising his wages. Now he’s gotten married, so he wants to thank you in person."
"Well, I must see him." Sean Knight’s curiosity was immediately piqued. Was this an acknowledgment of his farm management work?
Once out of the college gate, Sean Knight saw a man and woman standing outside.
When they saw Sean Knight, their faces were clearly a bit tense and also a bit excited.
"Sidney Roberts?" Sean Knight remembered, this was the tractor driver he had first encountered in the tavern in the town.
"Boss, you actually remember me?" Sidney Roberts had not expected that, and exclaimed joyfully, "I’m really so thankful!
Boss, thank you for letting me be a tractor driver again and for raising my wages. Now I can feed myself with my work and have married the woman I love..." He pulled the woman beside him into his embrace – Sean Knight remembered she was the female waitress from that inn.
"So I’m very grateful to you!"
"You’re welcome, you earned all of it with your hard work." Sean Knight knew how to say the polite things as well.
"No, no, no, before this, I was working at the Japanese farm, where I used to work longer hours, but I was paid a lot less and could only feed myself." Sidney Roberts took out a box and handed it over:
"But now it’s completely different. I’m truly very thankful to you, you’ve made my dream come true... I found this at the edge of the jungle, I hope you like it!"
Sean Knight opened the box, and inside it was clearly a pair of Jade Tablets!
What surprised Sean Knight more was that there were several very clear scratches on the Jade Tablets, resembling the Oracle Bone Script from the ancient times of China!
This was not an ordinary item!
How could such a thing appear here?
"Boss, do you like this?" Sidney Roberts asked, somewhat nervous.
"I love it, I love it very much!" Sean Knight closed the box, laughing, "When you have time, could you take me to see the place where you found this?"
"Of course." Sidney Roberts was happy, "Then we won’t disturb you further, we’re leaving, goodbye, boss!"
After sending Sidney Roberts off, Sean Knight couldn’t even concern himself with going back to lunch and returned to his room with the box.
The Jade Tablets inside had to be at least over three thousand years old.
The native civilizations of America primarily included the Aztec, Inca, and Maya Societies. Pushing back their dates, the Maya Society spanned the longest time, and on this side of Brazil, it was mainly the Maya Society.
The core locations of the Aztec and Inca civilizations were in Central America.
Additionally, there was the Olmec culture—an early phase of the ancient Indian civilization, which had some cultural similarities to that of China.
However, the three main ruin sites of the Olmec culture that were discovered are all in Central America, Mexico, far from this place.
Here in South America, the primary civilization was still the Maya Society—Sean Knight had already experienced it in the jungles of the Amazon River.
So, what about these Jade Tablets?
After pondering for a long time without figuring it out, Sean Knight suddenly laughed.
Why worry so much about it? Once Elijah Hastings and the others return, couldn’t he just make time to go and see for himself?
Putting away the Jade Tablets, Sean Knight began to attend to the farm matters.
To his surprise, That day, he received a report from Leng Ru Bing about integrating the farmland.
The first and second points hadn’t changed in the report, but the third point was a departure from the prior centralized management model. In the report, she suggested that Sean Knight divide the farmland into several Small Farms based on their locations.
Sean Knight could then re-lease these Small Farms, preferably to capable local individuals. In this way, it would save a lot of management effort.
Of course, this could be divided into two parts. One part could be directly based on harvest, letting the sub-leased Small Farm owners contribute food; the other part, if considered too troublesome, would involve the farm owners directly paying Money.
Put simply, this involved sub-leasing the land to Small Farm owners and earning Rent.
The report also mentioned that given the current international environment, it advised Sean Knight to directly receive food. The investment for the early part of the season was all made by Sean Knight, whether it was seeding, Planting, or management, all were done with great attention.
Therefore, the harvest should be quite good. Later, when subleasing to Small Farm owners, they could negotiate based on this harvest quality.
Furthermore, Leng Ru Bing suggested that Sean Knight keep a larger piece of Concentrated Lands under his own control and assign someone to manage it when he was not around. In this way, if any emergencies occurred, they could be dealt with promptly.
After all, Sean Knight and the others, being outsiders, could be deceived by the local people if they wished.
Reading this report, Sean Knight contemplated that if Leng Ru Bing wasn’t involved with the Chrysanthemum Organization and didn’t have ulterior motives, she could be considered quite a talent.
At least all her suggestions were very practical, and for Sean Knight, not hard to implement and very convenient at that.
It was worth giving a try.
After all, Sean Knight, including Elijah Hastings and the others, couldn’t stay here for long.
Moreover, this place was different from Afghanistan and the Middle East. In Afghanistan, he had already formed a solid alliance with the local Tribes.
As for the Middle East, with his marriage to Aria Wilson and having placed a Heavy Combined Brigade security team there, there could hardly be any problems with the Oil Fields.
