Start with 10,000 pigs

Lighthouse State, Texas。

In Old Jack’s farm, Old Jack got up early this day and planned to supervise the newly recruited workers to feed the pigs.。

Due to the economic crisis, the unemployment rate in the lighthouse country has been rising sharply, and many people have lost their jobs. At this time, the cost of labor has also dropped, so Old Jack simply resigned from the original workers and used lower wages. The price went to recruit a few new workers.。

Some people may think this is unnecessary and just lower the wages of the original workers.。

But in fact, it looks like the same thing, but it actually has different effects.。

If you lower the wages of the original workers, they will not be grateful to you, but will blame you for taking advantage of the situation; but if you directly recruit new employees, those who can’t find jobs will not feel that the wages are low, and they will think that you are helping them when they need it. Thank you so much!

Therefore, although the salary is the same, the method is different. This is the difference between taking advantage of the situation and providing help when it is needed.。

An employee who is resentful towards you will definitely not work for you seriously; but an employee who is grateful to you will definitely work for you more seriously.。

Old Jack is a smart man. He naturally knows how to choose among these, so he chose to recruit new workers.。

It’s just that the new workers are not familiar with it after all, and they still need to supervise and guide in many aspects to avoid problems.。

“Good morning, Mr. Jack!”

“Mr. Jack, you look like a handsome cowboy!”

When Old Jack came to the farm, several of his newly recruited workers had already started working. When they saw his arrival, they all greeted him warmly and praised him in various ways.。

This made Old Jack feel very good. He liked these sensible employees. Compared with the old employees who were dismissed by him like old fritters, these words sounded much better!

“Guys, work hard and I will give you enough rewards and bonuses so that you can support your families!”

At this moment, Old Jack did not regard himself as an exploitative capitalist, but as a great benefactor.。

He feels that he is really a good person. Although the salary he gives is much lower than usual, in this economic crisis environment, he at least provides these people with a job and gives them a salary that can barely support their families.。

That’s a great act of kindness, isn’t it?

“Oh~ damn! How is this going? !”

Old Jack’s happy mood did not last long. When he entered the breeding farm and was about to see the growth of the pigs, he discovered something strange.。

The skin on the pig’s body was red, and there were cyanotic hematomas on the tips of its ears. These were clearly symptoms of the plague!

“Damn, damn swine fever! How could African swine fever appear?”

“Soulless! It must be you, it must be you who brought it, you soulless souls have brought disaster to me!”

Old Jack was so angry that he couldn’t calm down for a while. He blamed all the blame on the newly recruited workers.。

His farm has little contact with the outside world. These pigs, which were fine at first, were suddenly infected with swine fever. This made him naturally suspicious of these newly recruited workers, because the swine fever only came after they arrived. appeared。

As for the ho

rror of African swine fever, Old Jack naturally knows that this is an irreversible disaster for farmers. Once pigs are infected, it is impossible to treat them!

This means that all his hundreds of pigs will be burned, and he will lose all his money!

You know, despite the serious economic crisis recently, the price of the meat they sell is not cheap at all; these hundreds of pigs represent an economic value of millions. Originally, he wanted to make a fortune , but it’s all over now!

Old Jack fired these newly recruited workers, and the news of the swine fever outbreak in his place also spread.。

But in fact, Old Jack is not the only one who is unlucky. News of swine fever has also spread from some other farms; farmed pigs are constantly being found to be infected, and some have even begun to die on a large scale. This situation has occurred in just two years. Within days, it spread throughout Texas.。

The local state capital in Texas immediately took prevention and control measures, strictly requiring the disinfection of pigs on each farm, and uniformly killing and burning pigs found to be infected.。

At the same time, several surrounding states also received the news and began to ban the circulation of pork in Texas to prevent the situation from expanding.。

But it was already too late. Soon after, news of swine fever outbreaks began to spread in several states around Texas. Then from south to north, it spread to more than fifty states in the lighthouse country, and even Heading further north to the Maple Leaf Country。

In the corn country near Texas, news of the raging African swine fever came early. For a time, North America was swept by the swine fever storm, and no place was spared.。

What’s even more frightening is that the lighthouse country, as a major agricultural exporter in the world, is also exporting its pork to Europe and Australia!

Now a large-scale swine fever has broken out in the Lighthouse Country, which has also frightened Europe. If the whole of Europe also falls, it will be a big disaster.。

…

In China, Lei Ziqing also immediately learned about the outbreak of swine fever in the Lighthouse Country.。

Fortunately, the domestic pork market is now firmly under his control and has been unified; basically all Qingyang pigs are farmed, and they have already been self-produced and sold, and no longer import pork, so there is no need to worry about foreign imports. spread of swine fever。

However, we can’t be careless about this matter.。

“As the notice continues, every farmer must strengthen disinfection and testing, and must not take it lightly; once a situation is discovered, it must be eliminated as soon as possible and cannot be allowed to spread on a large scale!”

“Also, while taking precautions, it’s time to expand the scale of breeding; if this situation continues, it’s time for us to make a fortune again!”

Lei Ziqing found Fang Lin, who was in charge of Qingyang Group, and gave him special instructions:。

The emergence of swine fever itself is also an opportunity. When foreign countries suffer heavy losses due to swine fever and there is not enough supply of live pigs, it will be time for him to show off his skills and take advantage of the opportunity to make money through exports.。

At that time, he would like to see if the Lighthouse Country will restrict the import of Qingyang pork when their people have no meat to eat!
