No wonder Shi Yong was suspicious.
Since last year, China has been deploying food purchases in various parts of the country.
But up to now, China has only stockpiled a few hundred million tons of grain reserves.
More than ten billion tons is an astronomical figure.
If China really has so much food.
Then why should we be afraid of foreign capital?
Now that we have the food, the next step is to discuss the price with Wang Jianjun.
With more than one billion tons of grain, a difference of one cent would be an astronomical figure.
What surprised Shi Yong was that the price Wang Jianjun offered was not high.
The current market price of grain in China is 1.7 times the usual price.
The price offered by Wang Jianjun was 1.2 times.
In China, you can make a lot of money by simply reselling it.
"I said you're not going to make money? No! Won't you lose money this way?"
Shi Yong looked at Wang Jianjun in disbelief.
At this price, it’s already good enough that Wang Jianjun doesn’t lose money.
"Please don't question my patriotism. Making money is not important to me. The stability and prosperity of the country is the most important."
Wang Jianjun pretended to be determined and said.
As for what he was thinking, only he himself knew.
That expression made Shi Yong doubt his own judgment.
He didn't believe that Wang Jianjun didn't gain any benefit from this.
But this time Wang Jianjun did show his sincerity.
China has also gained real benefits.
So Shi Yong readily made some promises to Wang Jianjun.
In the later period, Wang Jianjun’s companies will receive policy support for their businesses in China.
There will also be tax benefits.
The two sides hit it off immediately.
Shi Yong also arranged people to transport food.
In order to ensure the confidentiality of this transaction.
China directly arranged military personnel to be responsible for transporting the goods.
For the first transaction, Shi Yong specially followed Wang Jianjun to take a look at his warehouse in Hong Kong.
When he saw the mountains of grain in the warehouse, Shi Yong finally felt relieved.
As shiploads of food were transported inland.
China also became tougher.
But the official media remains low-key.
And the news was blocked completely.
While China was sitting on the Diaoyutai, the four major grain traders on the other side could no longer sit still.
If the grain price in your country doesn't rise, then the grain we have stored here will be in vain.
The four major grain traders, who were forced into a corner, finally decided to increase their purchases.
I will buy up all the food in your market and I don’t believe you won’t raise the price.
However, what surprised the four major grain traders was that no matter how much they bought, the grain in China would never run out. At most, there would be occasional food shortages, but as long as a few days passed, the food would be replenished soon.
Is there really so much food in China?
The four major grain traders, who are hoarding more and more grain, are becoming somewhat unconfident.
If they continue to stockpile this, they will be in real risk.
After all, the food they have is bought at a high premium.
Just when the four major grain traders were hesitating, a piece of news caught their attention.
It turned out that a super-large grain warehouse of Huachu Grain and Oils Corporation caught fire for unknown reasons.
The fire was not serious and was put out the same day.
The next day when the media went to the scene for interviews, they found that the warehouse that had been burned to ashes was empty.
After this news report came out, many smart people on the Internet immediately realized that something was wrong.
You have to know that the fire broke out less than a month after the autumn harvest.
During this period, grain from all over China was being transported to the China Grain Reserve Warehouse.
Normally, no warehouse should be empty at this time.
But it was obvious that there was nothing in that warehouse.
Where did the food go?
Some careful netizens quickly saw photos of this warehouse in the news from the past few weeks.
The news report said that the warehouse was full of food.
In less than a month, all the food in a super-large granary disappeared?
It's hard not to associate such news with something bad.
Could it be that some responsible person was corrupt and reselling grain?
This speculation quickly spread on the Internet.
For a time, all kinds of outrageous and exaggerated versions of rumors were flying around.
But this time, the Chinese authorities rarely came out to refute the rumor in a timely manner.
Instead, they allowed the matter to ferment for ten days or half a month before arranging for the relevant departments to delete these remarks on the Internet.
And previous reports about this granary were quickly dealt with.
This attempt to cover up something makes netizens more certain of their own guesses.
As a result, various internet trolls began to act as keyboard warriors on the Internet to vent their dissatisfaction.
When Wang Jianjun learned about this, he also thought that this was some corrupt official trying to enrich himself.
For this reason, Wang Jianjun specifically asked Shi Yong about this matter.
As a result, Shi Yong smiled and told him the real situation.
"Are you saying this is just a setup by the higher-ups?"
Wang Jianjun was a little bit unbelievable.
When this incident happened, his guess was the same as that of netizens.
I didn't expect that this incident was performed for others to see.
"If even you believe it, then those people outside must have been deceived."
Shi Yong couldn't help but feel secretly proud.
He deliberately did not tell Wang Jianjun about this, just to see Wang Jianjun's shocked expression.
Just as Shi Yong said.
