Lou's argument at the bottom of page 3 shows that:
Lou wanted to avoid the hard work that would be required in cultivating the land. That was why he suggested that it should be sold as their neighbors were doing.
His argument, however, was rejected totally by Alexandra who understood that in patiently cultivating the land and by dint of hard work, true and satisfying profits would be amassed.

Therefore, "O Pioneers!" chronicled the lives and experiences of the Bergsons who immigrated from Sweden to Nebraska, US. At first, their father acquired a massive parcel of land for farming and started cultivating it to sustain the family of Alexandra, Oscar, Lou, Emily, and their mother. When he died, Alexandra dexterously turned the cultivation of the land into a lucrative business that sustained and enriched the family thereafter.
