The Planeteers and the Harbingers of Chronos

Chapter 1

Inside a City Hall. A Non-Government Organization called the Stricker Group invited several farmers to participate. Their goal is to improve the agriculture sector without a single financial help coming from the Government.

Stricker Group wants this country to emulate Japan and India. Private companies and tech investors improved their farmlands. With the latest machineries and robotics technology, they are able to produce more crops with lower the cost.

Just think. With scientific implementation, you can calculate the proper usage of fertilizer. Not too much and not too less. With latest technology, you can predict storms and reinforce better countermeasures.

The agriculture sector in this country is archaic. Ancient. The farmers continue to plant rice and onions through manual labor. This tiresome procedure will always drive the costs. Human labor is time consuming.

As a result, the farmers are unable to compete with the low-price set by China and Thailand. China can sell crops at a cheaper rate because they are using sophisticated farming methods.

John Magzee walks up the stage. Excited to announce the news to everyone who participated. He is also the one supervising this event.

John explains that whatever Japan or India can do, this country can do it too. Success stories without a single help coming from the Government!

Restie Marzan sits next to Joschka Stricker. Asking him how's the event going.

Joschka believes it is going well. This fundraising will be a great success.

Restie Marzan warns Joschka to tame his sidekick John. This man is enraging the wrong crowd.

Joschka looks around. Some dangerous group of men are whispering amongst the crowd. Most likely, they are plotting something.

Restie Marzan assumes Joschka already knows what kind of people they are dealing with. The real estate scumbags will not allow these kinds of NGOs to flourish. Restie asks Joschka to try and impress Architects. At the end of the day, your pockets will be fatter if you win their good side.

Joschka is disappointed. He is not into a long-term profit. His ultimate goal is to help out the little guys because he grew up alongside them back in Germany.

Before Joschka could say another word, Isha Abundo raises her hand. This caught the attention of everyone.

Isha Abundo. One of the board of Directors of Sin Theia Architects Corporation.

Some are whispering. What is she doing here?

Isha Abundo would like to ask John how secure is this company. The worst thing you can possibly do is to throw your hard-earned money to the wrong person. How do you clear the fog of fear? These people are farmers. Even a $100 is a lot for them. Let alone a 20 to 50-year life savings.

John explains that there will always be a misconception. There is a vast market of companies competing to win over the investors. Their company is different. Stricker Group is truly dedicated with the agricultural enhancements. Their startup goal is to notify as many people as they could. Tell them that their organization exists. Stricker Group is willing to help and support their needs.

Isha Abundo praises the proposal. She is certain that these ideas are prepared by an amazing group of talented people. These projects would give you hope that the money would earn back in time.

Isha Abundo is ready to invest to Stricker Group. She shows her phone to everyone. With a push of a button, it is ready to transfer 10 million USD from her bank account.

Isha added that the people who gathered here are mostly farmers. Mostly people who can't do what she could do. Except for that Japanese guy over there but she will get back to that in a bit.
