Chapter 889
"Mr., what are you talking about?" Zhong Yi smiled, "It is our honor to be able to come for dinner."
"Mayor Zhong, what do you mean?" Zhao Xingjiu said with a smile, "With me having your meal together, do you have to thank me in reverse?"
"Hey, I really let you talk." Zhong Yi smiled, "I really have to thank you if you can come for dinner."
"You can pull it down." Zhao Xingjiu smiled and waved his hand, and said, "But, old man, I came to the door today, and I came to thank you."
"Thank me?" Zhong Yi said, "What do you thank me?"
Just as Zhao Xingjiu was about to speak, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.
When the two looked back, they saw Xiao Xianen, Lin Chengzhong and Qin Runze had already walked in one after another.
"What did you say?" Zhong Yi quickly stood up to greet him, and said with a smile, "Did you four have made an appointment?"
"It was not an appointment." Zhao Xingjiu said with a smile, "They probably came to thank you like me."
"I don't understand this even more." Zhong Yi said, "What do you thank me?"
"Thank you for helping us make a lot of money." Xiao Xianen continued, "In more than half a month, Mayor Zhong, you have made almost one million yuan in our four families. Do you think we should come to thank you specifically?"
Zhong Yi finally reacted and said in a deep voice: "Did those grain merchants pay usury?"
"I've returned it!" Qin Runze replied, "It's more than 2.8 million yuan in capital and profit!"
"It's really amazing." Lin Chengzhong shook his head and said, "They ate a lot of food they ate but haven't sold a single piece of food yet. Where did they find so much oceans?"
Xiao Xianen said: "But at least one thing is certain that they definitely didn't have that much money before, otherwise they wouldn't have to borrow usury from the four of us."
Zhao Xingjiu said: "Mayor Zhong, what do you think is going on?"
After saying this, the four of them all fell on Zhong Yi.
Zhong Yi said: "If I guess correctly, it should be the Japanese who took action!"
"Japanese?!" Zhao Xingjiu's face changed when he heard this, and he said, "What do you mean is that they really colluded with the Japanese and have really become traitors?"
Lin Chengzhong and the other three also looked calm.
If there are Japanese people involved, this nature will be different.
Although Zhong Yi said at the beginning that this matter was definitely not that simple and that there must be Japanese people behind the scenes, they didn't believe it at first, but now they can't believe it.
"It must be like this." Zhong Yi said this and said, "There is another situation you don't know."
Zhao Xingjiu said in a deep voice: "What's the situation?"
Zhong Yi said: "Since last night, many villagers from the outside town suddenly came to Jiangbei Railway Station and began to purchase corn crazily. They bought 50 kilograms last night and bought another 50 kilograms early this morning! If I guessed correctly, this must be the secret trick of the Chen family and those grain merchants!"
"Mom Xipi!" Zhao Xingjiu immediately cursed, "As they still want to eat all 200,000 tons of corn?"
"These grain merchants who have lost their conscience are endless, right?" Lin Chengzhong said angrily, "If they don't force the elders of Yinjiang into a desperate situation, they will not give up, right?"
Qin Runze said: "If it is as Mayor Zhong guessed, and the Japanese support them behind them, the situation will be really troublesome. The strength of the Japanese is not comparable to these grain merchants!"
It’s not a disgusting word, the Japanese pull a hair thicker than their legs.
"What's the trouble?" Zhao Xingjiu said, "I want me to say that starting today, each person will be limited to one kilogram per day! The Chen family also has those black-hearted grain merchants who want to eat 200,000 tons of corn. How many people have to buy it for many days? Is it really impossible to make them so hard?"
"Yes, purchase restrictions!" Xiao Xianen and the other two nodded, "The purchase restrictions should be introduced, otherwise the price of corn will be hyped up by them in a few days!"
"Purchase restrictions?" Zhong Yi smiled, "Why should purchase restrictions?"
Xiao Xianen said: "No purchase restrictions, corn prices will re-take the old path of rice."
"Impossible." Zhong Yi waved his hand and said, "There are still 800,000 tons behind the 200,000 tons of corn! I don't believe that one million tons of corn can't stand the Japanese!"
After pausing, Zhong Yi said again: "If one million tons can't hold them up, then two million tons. I still don't believe it. Can the little Japanese money buy all the American corn?"
Zhao Xingjiu and the other four looked at each other and said in a deep voice: "Can the supply of corn be guaranteed?"
"Can guarantee it!" Zhong Yi said, "You don't know how high the corn production in the United States is, with an annual output of hundreds of millions of tons. The Americans can't finish it, so the price is so cheap that it is worse than the soil!"
"This, so much corn?" Zhao Xingjiu was dumbfounded.
Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Since the Japanese want to play, let's play with them!"
After saying this, Zhong Yi said to Chen Xingjiu and the other four, "Are you interested in participating in the four clan leaders?"
"Ginseng, you must join a group!" Zhao Xingjiu clapped his hands, "Will we still think there is too much food? Even if we don't fight this food war with Japan, it would be great to buy it from the United States and stock it up."
Xiao Xianen, Qin Runze and Lin Chengzhong also nodded in agreement.
"Okay!" Zhong Yi said, "Then you four families go back to raise 10 million oceans, and our municipal government will take out another 10 million to raise 20 million yuan, and then buy two million tons of corn from the United States to come back!"
"Two million... ten thousand tons?" Hearing this number, Zhao Xingjiu's heartbeats a little, "Will there be too many?"
"Don't worry, old man." Zhong Yi said, "I promise that the food will not be thrown into your hands. If I really can't sell it in the end, I will buy it back in the future to serve as military rations for the Zhejiang East Coast Defense Corps and even the Zhejiang Province Anti-Enemy Self-Defense Corps!"
This is Zhong Yi’s real intention. Anyway, these two million tons plus the one million tons of corn that he had bought would never leave Yinjiang. As long as they could win this economic war, they would not only make a fortune, but also lose these three million tons of corn in vain. Then, wouldn’t they have food rations?
Three million tons of corn, that is six billion jin!
So much food is enough for the military and civilians of Zhejiang Province to eat for a year!
In other words, it is enough for the regular army in the entire Third War Zone to eat for ten years, the guerrillas and militia armed forces.
Anyway, when I buy this batch of grain, I don’t have to worry about food issues in the entire War Three Zone.
Zhao Xingjiu chopped off the floor with a crutch and said, "I have done this deal by Zhao's family!"
